Thursday, June 14th

It was the first day of summer that Yoongi finally had Jimin's consent to spend the entire day out. Usually, Jimin starts to get uncomfortable or sleepy after being out for about three hours but he decided that one day shouldn't hurt.

Yoongi had been saving his past two weeks of paychecks and finally saved up enough money to take Jimin to the mall and spoil the hell out of him, well maybe just a little. He knows Jimin will be embarrassed by it but he really wanted to do something for the younger.

"Where?" Jimin asked as he played with the hem of his jacket.

"We're going to the mall," Yoongi said as he drove down the street.

Jimin nodded, not so confidently as usual, but Yoongi knew that Jimin was just nervous about being around so many people. Though Yoongi would be right next to him, making sure that he was okay.

The younger had only been to the mall a few times, probably three times in his entire life, so it's not entirely new but it's still a bit scary.

However, holding Yoongi's hand over the console did make him feel a lot better about it. He'll just have to stay right by Yoongi's side the whole time.

Which ended up working out well. Yoongi held Jimin's hand the whole time, walking through the different stores and looking around. He kept making sure Jimin was happy and making him laugh with cheesy jokes every so often.

They were currently standing in what appeared to be Yoongi's style in a store. The walls were lined with shirts and shoes, a skateboard area in the back. This was the first store that Yoongi was actually ready to purchase something in.

He would ask Jimin if he liked a shirt, holding up and waiting for the one that Jimin's eyes lit up for. They looked at shirts, hoodies, and pull overs till he finally found the item that made Jimin smile.

It was a dusty rose pullover with zipper starting from mid-chest. It was also a slight turtleneck, reaching a few inches under the chin. It said obey on the front in white font with two dots on both sides.

It was actually really cute, something Yoongi would've never picked out but he really liked it. Jimin's fingers were wrapped gently around the hem of the bottom, looking at it.

"What size you want?" Yoongi asked and put his hand on the rack.

Jimin looked at him with wide eyes, not sure if he really heard him right. There's no way he'd let Yoongi buy him the jacket. So he shook his head no, letting go of the nice jacket immediately.

"Come on, we could get like matching ones or something," Yoongi chuckled.

"You in pink?" Jimin asked softly, looking at Yoongi in bewilderment.

"No, no! They've got a black one right here," Yoongi laughed harder and pointed at the same jacket but indeed in black.

Jimin looked nervously at the pink one again, he did really want it, but he couldn't get behind having Yoongi pay for it. And Yoongi could tell that it was appearing to make Jimin uncomfortable.

"Look, I'm getting me stuff too. Don't worry, I promise it's okay," Yoongi said in a soft gentle tone and kissed the top of Jimin's head.

The younger nodded then, looking much calmer as he leaned his head onto the older's shoulder. Yoongi really did make everything okay.

"What size? I would get you a small but you like big clothes."

Jimin leaned forward from his comfortable position and picked a large off the rack. Yoongi looked absolutely confused, a large was undeniably way too big. It was bigger than the cute oversized style Jimin had, maybe he trying to hide more of himself from Yoongi.
