The Hookup | P.Jimin

I'm Jimin

Elena paced back and forth in her bedroom, her knuckle was secure between her teeth as she felt sudden anxiety about going on this date with a man she doesn't even remember meeting.

She couldn't do it, but she had already promised Taehyung she would. Elena was conflicted with what to do and it made her feel nauseous.

This wasn't in her comfort zone and everyone who knew her knew this much about her. It was unfair that Taehyung was making her do something that could be fun and could possibly help bring her out of her depression.

Damn that boxy smiled bastard.

Elena groaned as she walked to her closet and grabbed the dress that she bought a few months back but never wore. It was hung up in the way back so she sometimes forgot that it was even in there.

She stared at it for a long while before letting go of her towel and slipping herself into it.

Elena walked to her full length body mirror and stared at herself, looking over the curves of her body and feeling extremely self conscious.

Her regular daily outfits consisted of comfortable wear; leggings and tshirts that were somewhat form fitting and loose shorts that reached mid thigh.

One of the reasons she bought this dress was because she wanted to try something different and get out of her comfort zone.

What a better night to wear something that wasn't normal for her to wear on a night she was going on a date with a man she doesn't even remember meeting.

Giving herself one more look and trying her hardest to not pick at her body imperfections, she walked out of her room and into the bathroom to put on makeup.

"Getting ready?" Taehyung spoke through the bathroom door. Elena looked at her bare face and began with some primer.

"Yeah. Hopefully it turns out alright."

"Stop worrying." She could imagine him rolling his eyes at her.

"Go away and let me do this in peace."

Elena heard him chuckle before she heard his footsteps move away from the door. With a sigh, Elena continued to do her makeup, hoping with everything that she had that it turned out alright. Makeup wasn't a skill of hers.

After nearly a half hour, Elena walked out of the bathroom feeling satisfied with how her makeup turned out and went to find Taehyung to get his opinion. Hes always had an eye for fashion and makeup, she knew that if she asked him for his opinion he would tell her if the colors she picked matched her outfit. He would also tell her if she looked like shit.

She found him in the living room watching a movie, wrapped in a large blanket and drinking a cup of tea.

"Hey, what do you think?"

Taehyung turned to look at her and gasped as soon as he saw her.

"You look amazing!"

Elena blushed at his comment and suddenly felt self conscious again.

"You really think so?" She pulled at the bottom of her dress, not because of the length but out of nerves.

Taehyung unbundled himself from his blanket and walked up to her. He grabbed her by the shoulders and stared into her eyes.

"You look beautiful. Now go out there and have fun."

Elena couldn't help the smile that grew on her face. She hugged Taehyung and held him tightly.

"I'm so nervous." She whispered. Taehyung held her back tightly and rubbed her back gently.

"Don't be nervous. Everything's going to be fine." He pulled back and smiled down at his best friend.

Taehyung knew how nervous she was, but he also knew that she would get over her nerves once she actually went and did this.

"You're right." Elena grinned up at Taehyung and let go of him. "I need to finish getting ready."

Taehyung watched her as she scurried away to finish getting ready for her date. He was genuinely excited for her because Yoongi shouldn't be her only experience in her life.

Elena walked into the restaurant that Jimin told her he was going to be meeting her at and didn't see him.

She looked around the restaurant and suddenly felt extremely anxious. Her eyes searched every person in front of her sitting at tables and none of them looked like Jimin from the picture. Her stomach began to churn and her urge to turn back and leave was huge.

Elena felt her phone vibrate within her purse and she pulled it out. It was an unread message from Jimin.

Jimin: Look up.

Elena looked up and saw an absolutely gorgeous man waving at her from a few tables away with a bright smile on his face.

The churning in Elena's stomach continued and the urge to puke her guts out was strong. Jimin was handsome in his picture but in person he was extremely breathtaking.

She walked up to the table slowly, her fingers were pulling at the sleeves of her dress and Jimin just stood there with a smile on his face waiting for her to get close.

"Nice to meet you again, Elena. I'm Jimin." Jimin bowed and Elena followed right after him.

"Its nice to officially meet you."
