My Stupid Love Story

Part 7: Crush

Within that smile his top lip slid up, revealing his perfectly straight, white teeth.

His smile was.. cute. That seemed like a strange way to explain him but it's true. He had a cute gummy smile that instantly made the room more happy and warm.

I blushed and my heart thumped hard. I didn't understand why but I wanted nothing more than to be the reason he smiled like that. His eyes flicked up to me and he laughed softly as he raised an eyebrow

"why are you looking at me weird?" I cleared my throat and looked away "it's nothing.." I really didn't know what was up with me.

I watched his body stand up out of the corner of my eyes and saw his feet move as he got closer "come on squirt. Follow me."

I stood and followed his moving body to a room. "This is the guest room.. you can stay in here. The heat is on and there's lots of pillows and a warm blanket."

I swallowed and looked up at him. Again, his face had a calm, soft and peaceful expression. That was new to me.

He tilted his head sideways and downwards to see me. "I'm going to bed, Kay? Call me if you need anything." He said gently before patting my head and walking away.

My heart was still pounding and I had no idea what was wrong with me. I walked in the room and closed the door, not locking it so Yoongi could get in if I needed something and started to take my clothes off.

When I was just standing in my boxers I walked up to the closet, which had sliding mirrors instead of doors and looked at myself. I felt my biceps, collarbone, chest, abs and every other muscle I could touch.

I used to be the short chubby kid. I stopped eating because of the bullying on my weight and got very small.

When I met Jisoo and the others I wanted to be a guy they'd be interested in so I began to eat again and working out.

I started 3 years ago and the change is very obvious. My hand trailed to my jawline and I felt the skin under my chin.

My double-chin was long gone and I had a sharper face than before. I blinked a few times and tilted my head. That was it! I had to talk to Jisoo about it.

I was sure she could help me. I nod to myself and walk to the bed, climbing in and getting comfortable.

When I woke up I called Jisoo as soon as possible. "Hello?" Her voice said through the speaker.

"Hey, it's me Jimin. I just need to ask you about something.. could you meet me at the café later today?" She chuckled softly "yeah. I'll be there around 11. Don't be late!"

I chuckled back. "Yes, ma'am." I got dressed and left the room. I walked over to Yoongis room and opened the door quietly.

I saw he was still sleeping so I walked in and ripped a piece of paper off of his note pad and looked in a drawer, luckily finding a pen.

I wrote him a note saying "hey, sorry I had to leave a little early. I'm going to the green hill café to meet my friend Jisoo. I'll be back here as soon as I can -Jimin"

when I finished I stood straight to see his sleeping face. He looked so calm and peaceful while he slept, almost like a toddler or infant when they take their afternoon nap.

Or a cat laying on hardwood floor, stretched out comfortably right where the sunlight shown through the window.

Before I knew it my hand had reached up and touched his face. I wasn't really thinking as I calmly combed my fingers through his soft hair.

"Mom.." he groaned quietly in his sleep. That caused the corners of my lips to turn up a little.. but when I realized what I was doing I stopped and pulled my hand away quickly.

Shaking my head to stop my running thoughts I quietly made my way out of his room and out of the apartment.

When I walked up to the small Café Jisoo was standing there, smiling and waving. She was wearing a cute purple dress that stopped just above her knees and a white cardigan that matched her plain white flats.

Her hair was down and she had very light make up on as usual.

Even though I knew she took only a few minutes to get ready, she was so beautiful it looked like it took her an hour to get herself situated the way she liked. "Jiminie! Over here!" Her sweet voice called.

I walk to her and open the café doors, letting her step inside first. We walked to the register and ordered what we wanted and found our usual table. "So, what is it you wanted to speak to me about?" She asked, still with a slight smile on her soft pink lips.

"Uhm.. well.. I think somethings wrong with me." Her eyebrows pulled in a little and she tilted her head, allowing her hair to fall from her shoulder.

"What do you mean..?" I sigh and rub my finger around on my coffee cup. "Well.. I did something stupid the other day.." she took a small sip of her drink.

"What happened..?" I was afraid of telling her because I didn't want her to worry but she was the most rational of the strange 4 girls I hung around.

My eyes flicked towards the window and peered into the street, watching some kids run and play around.

"I listened to a conversation I wasn't supposed to hear and accidentally got the attention of a gang leader. Yoongi protected me and now the guy is after me, trying to get to him." Her mouth dropped and her fluttery eyelashes moved up and down as she blinked "what..?"

I sigh "that's not the issue though.." her confused look and eyes amplified as she scrunched her nose "then what is?"

I bite my lip "I don't know why but.. when Yoongis nice to me.. or he smiles.. I feel weird and I don't know what it is.." I confess.

Her mouth closed and she swallowed, biting her lip much like I did before I spoke "Jimin.. do you have a crush on him?"

My eyes widened and I blushed "what?! What would give you that idea! I like girls!" She smiled bitter sweetly and looked up "well yeah but.. that's what people do and feel when they have a crush on someone. You most likely aren't gay but you're gay for him." She said sipping on her drink again and shrugging.

"He's probably the only guy you'll ever like." I took in a deep breath "but that's crazy.. there's no way I have a crush on him!" I said, denying her once again.

As if on que the doors of the café opened again and Yoongis voice filled my ears. Hearing him made my heart thump and I got all giddy for some reason.

"Jimin?! Are you here?!" I turn my head around and threw him a confused look "yeah, I'm right here! What's up?"

He sighed aggressively in relief and made his way towards me "What the hell is wrong with you! He's still after you! I told you that you can't go anywhere alone! You should have waken me up!!" He yells.

My eyes flicked to Jisoo again and she stood, cup in hand "Well I need to go. It was really great to see you Jimin! Bye bye!" She said with a smile and small wink, her frame walking away
