It had originally been Jungkook's idea. They'd been sitting at the table that morning, Jungkook trying to finish some school work and Jin bitching about the fair that was coming to the next town over and how he had no one to take. He'd scored tickets from a colleague. Jungkook had rolled his eyes and suggested taking Yoongi. Whether it was a date or not was up to Jin. Jin had stared at the younger one with bewilderment and spluttered nonsense; trying to deny everything and Jungkook had just rolled his eyes. He wasn't stupid.

'You aren't as subtle as you think you are, Jinnie. The only person who doesn't know is Yoongi which doesn't make sense since he's more alert. If Taehyung can pick up on this crush then anyone can. But seriously, how doesn't Yoongi know how far up his ass you are?' Jungkook threw a pencil at Jin before adding, 'close your mouth, you'll catch flies. Now go and make breakfast and leave me alone. I have homework to do and if I don't finish it, I'll get my ass kicked.' Jin had then stumbled to his feet and left the younger boy alone. He'd shut the door behind him and peeked his head into his own room, heart softening at the ball curled onto the bed. He'd gone to sit on his bed and watch Yoongi sleep, as creepy as it sounded. He loved watching Yoongi sleep. The boy looked peaceful and soft in slumber. Jin's heart fluttered and warmed up at the sight. When Yoongi began to stir, he quickly got up and left. If Yoongi caught him staring, Jin would never hear the end of it. He decided on making breakfast like Jungkook asked him to. When he'd left for class after Taehyung had shouted at him, Jin felt a little sad leaving Yoongi alone for the day. Sure he was always alone but it didn't feel right leaving him alone this time.

Jin wouldn't call himself a perfect student but he always paid attention in class. This time though, all he could think about was Yoongi and the kind-of-date trip to the fair. He couldn't stop the grin on his face when he pictured the gummy smile on his best friend's face when they went on the fast rides. Or how Yoongi would beg Jin for fairy floss and sweets and basically to try every little piece of food at the fair.

He pulled out his phone and started texting Yoongi, not even caring about what the teacher would say. It was all about the quiz happening next week and Jin knew all the shit anyway. Jin didn't bring up the fair since he was too nervous. He tried to type it out but chickened and erased the message.

Jin didn't even notice that class was over until a classmate of his (Jihyo he thought her name was) tapped him on the shoulder and told him that class had ended five minutes ago. A blush spread across Jin's cheeks when he realized that she was right and that they were the only two left in class. Even the teacher had left. He hastily got out of his seat and kept apologizing but Jihyo just giggled and left, Jin following once he was packed up.

After checking his watch, he realized that he had a few hours to kill before he had another class. He only had two that day thankfully. He wanted to go home and spend the time with Yoongi but the younger one had work that day so Jin just opted for calling Yoongi instead.

He was nervous bringing up the fair. The answer would probably be a yes but he still couldn't help the doubt that filled him. He was scared that Yoongi would confront him about Jin's feelings and say no. When Yoongi did say yes though, he felt his anxiety melt away and relaxed his tense muscles, a smile forming on his face. The only problem Yoongi found was convincing his boss, Jonghyun to let him go. Jin could probably charm the guy with his good looks and sweet talking. The other slight problem was the apartment. Neither of them trusted the two children to look after the apartment themselves.

Once Yoongi had hung up, Jin felt lighter and giddy. He typed in Jungkook's name and cursed himself for texting the boy during class.

Jinnie: So, Yoongi said yes and since I can't trust you or Tae to look after my apartment, I'm getting Taemin to help housesit.
