UNDER THE MISTLETOE [YM]

007

"really? Oh my god, congrats!"

Jimin smiled widely and almost tried to breakdance through his house. His older brother, Jihyun, had had a child, a baby girl. 

"where are you? I'll come right this instant! I'm an uncle, can you believe it?" Jimin excitedly ran to his room and while clutching the phone, began to throw in some essentials on to his bed.

"you better had believe it" Jihyun chuckled, exhilarated. "I'm in Busan"

"I thought the baby was due next week?" Jimin inquired.

"yeah, that's what the doctor's said, but anyway..." there was a pause. "she's beautiful, you know?"

"what's her name?"

"still pending"

"okay, I'll be there"

"see ya"

Jimin grabbed a suitcase and packed some clothes. While packing he dialed Taehyung. It took some moments for the latter to reply.

"hey, Tae, I'm going to Busan" frantically Jimin sad.

"what? You're moving out?" incredulous, Taehyung exclaimed.

"no, my brother's had a kid"

"woah, tell him I said congrats"

"I'm leaving now, you have a key right?" 

"dude, I lived there for like five years" 

"I'm not sure about you, anyway, there's some leftovers in the fridge for dinner. Or you could order something. Ok?" Jimin closed his room door and maneuvered his suitcase to the top of the staircase.

"I'm 21 Jimin, I'll do fine for one night" Taehyung replied, sounding annoyed.

"you should go over to Jungkook's place for tonight" Jimin suggested. 

"oh yeah, like that didn't occur to me before" Taehyung scoffed.

Jimin laughed.

"whoah, she's beautiful" Awed, Jimin stared at the bundle in his arms. He couldn't stop staring, the child was honestly so beautiful, like an angel.

"we decided to go for a English name" Jihyun said. 

"oh right, cause Liz's English" Jimin nodded.

"Park Lilly? is that too cheesy?"

"well, don't ask me, you should decide" Jimin smiled at Elizabeth, or as Liz they called her, his brother's wife.

"I think Lilly is good. And well Park is inevitable" Liz laughed softly. Jihyun put an arm around her waist as he laughed as well. Jimin looked back at the baby, feeling down all of a sudden. He wished Yoongi was here.

Wait.

What?

What did he just think?

He shook his head slightly. Nope, nothing, it was nothing.

"hey, Jimin, are you alright?" Liz asked, looking concerned.

"yeah, yeah I'm fine" He said a little too quickly. He handed back Lilly to her and made an excuse  to call Taehyung and went outside to take a deep breath. He didn't catch the concerned gaze Liz shot at him. 

"what do you mean, he's gone?" Yoongi asked, alarmed. "he moved out?"

"nah, he went to Busan. His brother's just had a kid" Taehyung had a smug look on his face, that made Yoongi want to punch him. Though he felt enormously relieved that Jimin had not in fact moved out. "you ummm, want his number?"

Yoongi caught that smirk on Taehyung's face and felt irritated and flustered. Was it that easy to figure out that he might have a thing for Jimin?

"yes" He coldly replied. Yes, keep your cool Min Yoongi. 

Taehyung entered the number into Yoongi's phone and then smirked wider.

"you're so whipped dude"

"hey, Jimin are you sure you're okay?" 

Jimin jumped in surprise at the sudden question fired at him by Liz. 

"yeah, why?" he casually replied.

"you seem...longing" uncertainly, Liz answered. Jimin blinked in surprise at her accuracy.

"yeah ummm, well, I do have this problem..."

"you can talk if you want to, I'm here to listen" Liz assuringly smiled.

"I-I kind of...like this..." he gulped. "this guy..."

Liz's eyes widened. "a-a guy? I never thought that you're gay"

"I'm not, you know, but he is kind of...a different case..." Jimin sighed, he was frustrated by himself too. He ran a hand through his hair. "he's well-" his phone rang. He fumbled for it snd mumbled an apology.

"hello?"

"how come you didn't tell me?" An annoyed voice asked. Jimin smiled widely.

"hyung!"

"yes it's hyung"

"I'm sorry I didn't call, I was excited" Though why he was apologizing, even he couldn't imagine.

A few minutes of teasing, Yoongi hung up. Jimin stared at the phone longingly. He didn't see Liz come up behind him.

"it's him isn't it?" she asked.

Jimin smiled. "yeah. It's him"
