GAME ON • P.JM

"Are you okay?" Jungmi softly asks placing a hand on Jimin's shoulder.

He panics, he can't have anyone knowing about this!

"Jungmi" he sternly says turning to face her, staring into her brown orbs. "If the man asks who you are, tell him you're my cousin, got it?"

She nods quickly, her hair bouncing up and down on each movement of her head.

With a deep breath, Jimin tries his best to keep his calm. The girl is full clothed and he can easily play her off as his cousin who made an unexpected appearance to his apartment, what is there to worry about?

Except, Jimin was a pretty shit liar. Maybe if he convinced himself she is his cousin he'll believe it?

Before he can think of anything else there's a pattern of knocks at the door. "Show time" Jimin mutters in a low voice.

He softly pushes Jungmi down onto the couch so it looks casual, as if she's just relaxing on the couch.

Jimin walks over to the door, unlocking it and sliding the chain off, his extra protection because people these days are insane and will go to extreme lengths, so he has learned.

"Jiminie!" Taehyung exclaims, boxy smile on show and arms in position to give Jimin a hug. With a warm smile in reply, Jimin hugs his friend.

"I wasn't expecting you Taehyung"

Taehyung smacks his chest and walks into the apartment. "You sound too formal, relax a bit, friends can show up to each others homes cant they?"

Jimin shrugs, atleast he hasn't noticed the-

"Jimin why is there a girl in your apartment? I thought you had your thing with your pretty secretary?" Taehyung asks, his eyebrows furrowed looking at the girl sitting on Jimin's living room sofa.

With a scoff and scrunching his nose, Jimin shakes his head. "Trust me there is nothing with that secretary, and this is Jungmi, my cousin."

"I didn't know you had a pretty little cousin" Taehyung shamelessly flirts, causing Jungmi to just purse her lips together, still completely quiet.

"Shut up Tae, and yeah she's from.. China" Jimin replies, good job Jimin, he knows you have no chinese relatives.

"But-"

"She's adopted" Jimin cuts in, saving himself from his past statement to ensure it sounds more plausible.

"Aahh" Taehyung replies, still eyeing the girl carefully.

"Why is she even here?" Taehyung asks, further questioning Jungmi.

Jimin exhales, 'that's a good question' he tells himself.

"I was transported fro-" Jungmi begins to say,

"-from China on a plane! Her parents asked for her to visit Korea and I offered for her to stay in my apartment, she won't be here long anyways."

"Cool." Taehyung nods, seemingly done with his little question and answer session.

"I heard from Hoseok that you two were up till all hours playing the new video game?"

Jimin nods, "wanna give it a try?"

Taehyung's eyes light up like an excited puppy dog and he nods his head.

"Alright, let me just talk to Jungmi for a second" Jimin replies, giving his signature smile and pulling Jungmi up by the arm toward his room.
