"But, Tae, he--"
"Jimin, I can't understand you when you spit two hundred words a second. Slow down, Eminem," Taehyung said with a laugh.
Jimin breathed an exasperated sigh before opening his eyes and talking at a rate Taehyung may be able to understand.
"I asked him what we were when we were just about in front of my house, and he just laughed and said, 'I'll leave that up to you to decide,' and then said, 'It's okay, don't feel so pressured,' like he actually expects me not to feel like the weight of the world is on my shoulders. I feel like the pressure is gonna crush me!" Jimin whined. He fell back on his bed with his phone pressed firmly against his ear.
Taehyung laughed on the other end. "I think he meant don't feel pressured to put a label on it."
Jimin mentally shrugged. "I dunno. Maybe."
Silence ensued as Jimin let out another sigh. He played with the hem of his shirt sleeve as he thought over the situation many times. He wasn't sure what to think.
"I'm too indecisive, Tae. What if he doesn't want to put a label on it? What if he feels pressured into this?" Jimin's eyes widened. "Oh, God, I--"
"Jimin, calm down!" Taehyung laughed lightly. "I know Yoongi. If that's how he felt, he would have said something, okay? He wouldn't have left you to decide if that's really how he felt."
Jimin closed his eyes. "You're sure?"
"Mhm. I'm very sure. And I'm sure he knows this kind of thing needs time, too, so don't rush it."
Jimin smiled slightly. "Okay. Thanks, Tae."
"Of course, Jiminie. Anything for my platonic soulmate."
Jimin's small smile widened into a big grin. "I'll talk to you later, Tae."
"Bye, Chim."
The line went dead in a few seconds as Taehyung hung up. Jimin sat up in his bed and contemplated his entire existence. His mind still couldn't entirely process this whole thing. The question still ran through his mind; Yoongi really likes me back? He couldn't help but smile at the thought, even if he still slightly doubted it.
Jimin suddenly remembered he never asked Taehyung how texting Jungkook went, and his eyes widened. He quickly grabbed his phone from beside him and texted his best friend.
