Jimin's blankets were ripped so fast that he did not even have one second to realize what was happening.

He truly didn't know what was going to happen.

"When was the last time you took a bath?", Taehyung asked with a serious look on his face while Jimin scanned through his stylish outfit.
"I don't know. A week ago?", Jimin answered as he gave Taehyung the most innocent smile he could.
"Take off your clothes."
"What?", Jimin asked dumbfounded.
"Now."
"NO"
Soon it turned into a fight where Taehyung tried to take all of Jimin's clothes off except of his underwear, neither of them knowing if it counted as sexual harassment or not. Finally, Taehyung victoriously pushed the almost completely naked Jimin towards his bathroom.
"Take a shower while I try to make food.", Taehyung said and closed the door fast enough to leave Jimin's mind blank for the next 5 seconds. 

He had no idea what had just happened.

While Jimin took a shower without even knowing why he was showering, Taehyung tried to cook something with the ingredients he had bought in the supermarket on the way. He didn't know how to cook many things, but he luckily knew how to make the soup his grandma always cooked for him when he was sick.
After Jimin showered and put on his comfy clothes, attracted by the smell of home-made food, he walked into the kitchen to see Taehyung standing beside the already put table.
Gently but shortly Taehyung walked towards Jimin and hugged him with the worries he had been having on his mind when he walked to Jimin's place. He let him go and looked him into the eyes as Jimin looked at him confusedly.
"What? Did you got some food stains on your clothes that you wanted to get rid of by smearing your body on mine?", Jimin said.
"What?"
"What?"
"I just wanted to comfort you. Why do you have to be like this?😂", Taehyung couldn't hold on his laughter, "I'm kind of sorry that our first meeting turned out like this😅"
"I should be the one to feel sorry. After all, all of this is my fault for being irresponsible and pulling you down with me.", Jimin said with a guilty look on his eyes but his mouth smiled, trying to not make himself appear as a victim.
While Taehyung signalled Jimin to sit and eat with him, he tried to make him feel better:
"This isn't your fault I told you that already. Also if you were about to pull me down I would have no problem with being pulled down. What kind of friend would I be if I'm not there for you when you need me?"
"True"
"...I actually expected a humbler answer."
Both of them cracked up, Jimin feeling way better than he thought he would feel when Taehyung told him he was going to come over.
But maybe, that's what life was supposed to be for Jimin and Taehyung.
An unexpected and unusual friendship that turned out to become their shelter.

"What?", Taehyung asked as he noticed Jimin's fascinated look at his food.
"It tastes amazing!", he said as he devoured all of his food and asked for another portion.
Taehyung felt relieved to see his friend eating so happily that he himself couldn't help but smile brightly.
His friends' happiness has always been his happiness.
Taehyung didn't know many things about life, but as he looked at Jimin he knew that he wanted to treasure this friendship for as long as he could, even if he didn't know until when that would be.
