MR. POPULAR AND THE BOY WHO STUTTER [VMIN SMUT AND FLUFF]

Chapter 21

Jimin and Taehyung started coming up with the steps. They have decided that Take You Down was a very catchy song and it did fit the concept that they were trying to portray.

Both of them were amazing dancers and Jimin himself is actually pretty impressed. Taehyung looked even more ethereal and boy was he trying his best not to get caught on his amusement. 

How can someone be this handsome and talented? Wow. But no. I still don't like him. Okay, maybe I hate him a little less now. - Jimin thought to himself

Everything was surprisingly going well. They no longer feel ashamed of executing the movements and were acting professionally towards each other. Most likely because both of them enjoy dancing anyway.

O-Okay. Let me s-see if you can re-remember the s-s-steps without looking at me. - Jimin stood in front of Taehyung to watch him dance the routine. Taehyung hesitated at first but gave in at the end.

"What?! Argh. Fine."

Taehyung danced gracefully to the music. Jimin doing his best to look unaffected. 

On the part where Taehyung was supposed to turn around, he accidentally stepped on his shoelaces causing him to trip and fall, face to face with Jimin.

His palms gripped Jimin's shoulder for support and Jimin instinctively held the other's waist to avoid him from falling completely to the floor. Their noses are touching and can feel each other's breath and heartbeat. The two of them were starring right through the window of their souls for a good ten second before they realized their position and let go almost too quickly.

GOD. I WANT TO KISS HIM. I SHOULD HAVE KISSED HIM? NO. KIM FUCKING TAEHYUNG! - Taehyung closed his eyes and frowned to himself.

Jimin on the other hand suddenly felt thirsty so he walked on the opposite direction to drink water before his throat completely gone dry.

"This stupid shoes! Uhmmm... Thanks for supporting my balance, I guess." - Taehyung thanked the other trying to salvage the situation from an extreme awkwardness because he is positive that he is about to die from embarrassment. An oddly satisfying embarrassment.

Jimin nodded, not saying a word to avoid the topic. He figured that if he won't speak then it will be easier.

They continued from where they left off until it's time for Jimin to go home.

I-I think we h-have done enough f-for the day. We can s-s-stop.

"Hmmm. Alright."

Can I-I j-just wait f-for my hyung to p-pick me up here, please?

What? Can't go home on your own?

We-Well... I've a-always had p-problem with p-p-people. I keep o-on encountering m-meanies. - Jimin responded looking down, sadness was evident on his face.

Taehyung remembered the incident with Kang Daniel and he badly wants to grab Jimin and hug him but he hasn't lost his mind just yet.

"I'll buy something from the store. I can send you home." - He lied.

Jimin looked at Taehyung blinking twice, not exactly believing what he just heard. 

Taehyung, the almighty asshole will send me home? Where is this gentleness coming from? - Jimin kept to himself.

"You look like a puppy, Park. Do you know that?"

You look like like a fucking irresistible puppy that I want to cuddle every day. - Taehyung caught himself saying the remarks silently. Too quiet for the other to hear.

You-You don't have t-t-too. I don't w-want to be a-a bother.

"I did say that I have to get something along the way right?" - Taehyung walked to his closet to get changed. When he's done, he handed Jimin his black hoodie.

"Change to this, Park. You're sweating profusely and it's cold outside now, you might get pneumonia."

O-Oh. Te-Thank you.

Jimin changed to Taehyung's clothes. The hoodie looked way bigger than him, almost as if it was oversized.

"You look smaller in my hoodie." - Taehyung said, filtering the words because what he actually want to say is that Jimin looks cuter in his hoodie.

Jimin rolled his eyes and pouted.

STOP THAT!

Wa-What? I di-din't do a-a-anything. - Jimin asked surprised from Taehyung's scream.

STOP BEING CUTE AND JUST FOLLOW ME WILL YOU?! Unless you don't want to go home. - Taehyung smirked.

Wa-What?

WHAT!!!
