Truth or Dare

Confession

Jimin's POV

"Hoseok?" I question. The lights are turned off, and our shared room is dark, the way it has been for hours. Everyone should be asleep by now.

I hear him roll over in his bed. "What?"

"Can I tell you a secret?" I whisper.

"Sure," he answers sleepily. I take a deep breath, nervous. Hoseok's one of my best friends, and I hope he doesn't freak out on me. I'd like to think he wouldn't mind, but the world is cruel to people like me.

"I like..." I mumble. He gasps, instantly awake.

"You like someone? Oh my God. Tell me everything about them!" He's instantly excited and I can't help but chuckle at his immediate reaction.

"Well, um, they're somewhat quiet but can be strange and loud other times. They're always adorable and they look out for those around them, even if they don't notice at the time. And they're sweet to me." I smile, thinking of Yoongi's adorable gummy smile, and how happy it makes me when he turns that smile on me.

"They sound perfect for you!" he says. "Who is it?" I take a deep breath, calming my nerves.

"Yoongi hyung."

There's a beat of silence I cringe. He probably thinks I'm designating. Probably wondering how I could like another guy. Sadness pools through me at his lack of response.

"I always knew you did!" he finally says. My eyes widen in surprise at his statement.

"You - you did?" I stutter. I never thought I was that obvious.

"Well, there were times I wasn't sure. But I totally think you guys would be so cute." Well, that's the problem. I'm pretty sure he doesn't like guys. And even if he did, he probably wouldn't like someone like me.

"But that's the problem," I say. "I don't want to tell him if he's not even gay." And there it is.

There's another pause, but this one doesn't feel so empty. I can tell he's coming up with a response.

"I've got this. Im going to set the two of you up." I groan into my pillow. Hoseok's not exactly the most subtle person in the world.

"Aish! Just don't make it too obvious, please," I beg.

"Don't worry, Jiminie. I've got your back."

Sorry for such a short chapter. I'm just setting up the story here. The other chapters will be longer, especially after the next one or two. I'll be updating later today with at least one more chapter. If you like my story, vote or comment!
