➣ Nine

Around 9am the next morning, Jimin was up and fluffing his hair with a simple white towel after a shower, his toned upper body visible to anyone who could see him, which should've been Seulgi but...

She's gonna wake up with a killer hangover.

He didn't drink much the previous night, just a sip of tequila and a little less than one bottle of beer. Seulgi on the other hand-

The blond smirked to himself, knowing she won't be awake for long, so he made it his job to go and get some basic groceries for them. After slipping on a tight white t-shirt and a blue summer flannel shirt on, he scribbled out a note for Seulgi and took off.

It was a brilliant summer morning, the Sunday before University finally begun. As he looked right and left from his place in front of the glass doors, squinting past the gleaming sunlight, he slipped his sunglasses on and followed his map of the area to the nearest grocery store. 

As Jimin was pulling a cart from the bunch by the doors, his stomach grumbled and he quickly realised he didn't have an actual dinner last night. So, he set off in search for some breakfast before doing the groceries.

By the time it reached 1pm, he was waddling back into his apartment, sunglasses hooked at the top of his shirt and arms weighed down by plastic bags. When he finally managed to shut the door with a little bump of his butt, he slowly lay the groceries on the floor and ran his eyes over the red lines where the handles of the heavy bags pressed down.

"Hey." Grumbled a rough voice from the kitchen counter which startled the blond, making him snap his head up before letting a cocky grin play on his face.

"Morning sunshine." He spoke as he lifted the bags from the ground once again, to put everything in it's rightful places.

Seulgi was having a killer hangover.

This has never happened to me before, so why now? Why now, in front of my new room mate?

Her long, once luscious dark hair was up in an extremely messy bun, her forehead in her hand as her eyelids drifted close. In her left hand was a cup of water, because there was nothing else to drink. 

"Dude, what happened last night? The last thing I remember is..." She drifted off, opening her eyes and staring at her grey sweats. 

Jimin gulped as he put some coffee into a cabinet across from the counter before turning around. 

"The last thing I remember is you kissing Taehyung." Even with a pounding head, she managed a weak scoff. "It looked pretty intense. Are you straight?"

"What?" The blond choked out before leaning as casually as he could against the cool marble surface beside the stove. 

"Sorry, that was rude, forget the question." Seulgi mumbled before sitting up and taking a sip of her drink. "Do you by any chance know how to make hangover soup?"

"I know where we can get some." The blond smiled as the tired girl with half shut eyelids stood from her seat. "But we gotta go out for it so get ready."

She let out a huff before slinking away to her bedroom again. A small smile formed on Jimin's lips when he heard the sound of a body flopping onto a mattress.

After going out for lunch with Jimin, Seulgi rushed home when she realised what time it was.

"Why are we running again?" The blond called out from behind her as they streaked through the square. She had skinny legs, but damn could she run.

"I have my first dance class here! It starts at frikin' 4!" She screamed back without turning around. The brunette didn't hesitate to close the lift door and was very squeamish when Jimin stuck his hand between the closing doors to get in.

Seulgi peered at the silver watch on her wrist, shifting nervously between both her feet when she realised it was 3:47.

"Where is it?" The blond asked her while pocketing his hands. But he didn't get an answer because as soon as the door was a fraction open, she squeezed through and sprinted to their apartment. Jimin was in the apartment for approximately 2 seconds before she burst from her room in a neon green crop top and black Nike leggings.

And I thought girls took ages to get ready.

She pulled her hair up into a neat ponytail before shaking her bangs out and slipping into her sneakers.

"I'll be back around 7 'cause class is until 6:30, I'm getting the bus have fun while I'm gone, see you!" The last word was barely caught because the door slammed shut before she even finished her sentence. 

The boy only found out his jaw was hanging open when he inhaled and some dust hit the back of his throat. 

"Holy shi-" Jimin began intensely hacking the dust out as he scrambled for a cup and some water.

"This place really needs to get cleaned." He mumbled to himself when he realised that no one had stayed here for over two months.

He downed the mug of water before setting off into the small storage space beside Seulgi's room where the broom and mop could be found. As he hit the light switch though, there was something else that caught his eye.
