Coffee & Kisses

30

   Jimin slowly pulled away, wiping at his eyes roughly, hiccups becoming softer. Yoongi knew he shouldn't press Jimin on the matter, so he didn't. His mind was running a million miles a minute and he was still reeling from the fact that Jimin had a bruise on his cheek. It was like a storm rampaging ferociously in his mind, and when Jimin spoke ever so softly to Yoongi, it all calmed down.
  "Can we grab a coffee... Yoonie?" Jimin asked, hesitantly adding the fond nickname, probably wondering if he still had permission to call Yoongi that. Yoongi nodded and grasped the younger's small and adorable hand in his and off they walked, being careful to make sure that Jin didn't see them because Yoongi wasn't quite yet ready to face the wrath of Jin.

   They both made it to a tiny coffee shop that was nestled in between a gym on the left and an art gallery to the right. It had a cute aesthetic, with a warming yellow wallpaper with white wood trim and comfy looking grey chairs, accompanied with circular orange tables. Yoongi led Jimin to one of the chairs and ran his fingers gently through his hair.
  "I'll be right back Minnie," Yoongi said softly, fearing he might break the fragile boy with a louder voice. Jimin nodded and began playing with his fingers as Yoongi left to go order.
   Yoongi walked up to the small line behind the cashier. He quickly chose what he wanted and knew what Jimin wanted and then looked behind him to see the younger staring at the floor, gently touching the now seemingly darker bruise on his cheek. Yoongi's heart seemed to keep on breaking today, and here he was again, his heart aching as he saw Jimin.
He then turned around just in time to order, "One Java chip Frappuccino and Caramel Macchiato." Yoongi said, the cashier nodding.
  "Name?"  The person with the name tag 'Sehun' asked.
  "Bofa," Yoongi said, barely managing to stifle a giggle. It made the cashier crack a smile at the name and roll his eyes.
  "It'll be ready soon." Sehun said, making Yoongi say a small 'thank you', and leave to go to Jimin. Yoongi quickly made it to the younger's spot and sat down.
"Hey, Minnie," Yoongi said, taking the younger's hands that were now on the table in his. Jimin offered a small smile, making Yoongi frown. "Do you want to tell me anything?" Yoongi asked quietly, slowly letting go of Jimin's hands. A miserable feeling set into Yoongi's stomach. Jimin didn't answer though, only taking Yoongi's hands back into his. Yoongi sighed deeply, deciding to take his hands out of Jimin's grasp once more. Trying to ignore the look of hurt that flashed across Jimin's face. Yoongi out his hands in his lap. "How come you never called me?" Yoongi asked softly again, this time it was his turn to feel hurt. For what had been a month no contact had been made between Jimin and Yoongi. It had felt like a lifetime, but in reality, had been a short relationship. Jimin shrugged, his mouth was sealed. Anger bubbled up inside of him, but he pushed it away, thinking about something else to talk about.
  "BOFA! THE ORDER FOR BOFA IS READY!" A random person shouted throughout the cafe, causes a few sniggers here and there.
'BoFa dEeZ nUtS.' Yoongi thought while getting up. Jimin didn't crack a smile at the name though. Yoongi sighed once more, going over to receive the drinks quickly. Once he'd grabbed them he made his way over to the table and set them both down. Jimin looked up to see the Caramel Macchiato in front of him, saying a small 'thank you' before taking it into his hands to take a sip, Yoongi nodding in return.
    "How is dance?" Yoongi asked, hoping to get a few words out of Jimin, but it was to no avail. Jimin shrugged once more, deciding it better to play with his straw. Once again, anger bubbled up inside Yoongi, but he shoved it away, drinking a chug of coffee to help keep it at bay. Yoongi sighed internally before hooking his pointer finger underneath Jimin's downcast chin, lifting it up to make the younger look at him. "Will you talk to me at all?" Yoongi asked gently, his hurt lacing the question. Jimin then lifted his chin up and away from Yoongi's fingers, looking back down at his cup of coffee before shrugging again. Yoongi nodded ever so slightly at this, knowing it would be fruitless to try and continue anything with the younger before standing up and leaving the cafe.
