11.07pm

Jimin waits outside the closed restaurant for minty.

The winter weather wasn't doing any justice for Jimin. His once pink and purky lips, had turned a shade of blue. Teeth chattering, he wrapped his scarf tighter around his neck to try to keep whatever body warmth he had left.

The back door suddenly opens and many people exit the building. His eyes scans the unknown faces in hopes he would find the somewhat familiar one. But minty wasn't there.

Then right at the back, tired eyes and flour stained cheeks, the mint haired boy exited.

Jimin pauses as minty stops walking. Digging through his pocket, Yoongi pulls out something Jimin would have never of guessed.

With pale but masculine hands the boy held the death stick to his lips and with a flick a small flame, lit it up.

After taking in a long puff, minty looked up at the star riddled sky and a small tired smile spreads across his thin pink lips

After taking in a long puff, minty looked up at the star riddled sky and a small tired smile spreads across his thin pink lips.

Jimin could read his expression in seconds.

Relieved.

As his gaze turns back downwards he freezes.

"Merida?" Yoongis eyes widen.

"Minty? You smoke?"Jimins eyes dart to the boys cigarette.

"U-uh..." Yoongi nervously stutters.

"I'm not going to lecture you don't worry. Carry on." Jimin reassuringly smiles.

"You don't mind?" Yoongi tilts his head still unsure.

"No I don't mind stupid." Jimin chuckles.

"Why are you here anyway? I told you to go home and sleep." Yoongi walks over to Jimin and nudges his shoulder.

"I had nothing else better to do, so I thought I'd wait and catch the train back home with you." Jimin nudges mintys shoulder back.

"Merida what happened? Have you turned soft on me? When I first met you, you were a stone cold bitch." Yoongi chuckles.

"I was not! You've got to understand that when a random stranger comes up to you and demands your name and makes sex jokes out of the blue.... you can't help but be on guard." Jimin rolls his eyes.

"So what's changed?" Yoongi smirks.

"I-Uh.... nothing! Nothing's changed! I still find you creepy minty!" Jimin stutters and covers his face in his red scarf.

"Awh Merida! Admit it! You like meeeee." Yoongi chuckles.

"I don't like you! I tolerate you." Jimin lightly laughs.

"Pff whatever you say Jiminie." Yoongi rolls his eyes while taking another drag from his cigarette.

"Can I ask you something?" Jimin suddenly turns to Yoongi.

"Uh... sure go ahead." Yoongi flicks the finished cigarette onto the ground.

"Why do you smoke?" Jimin tilts his head.

"I knew you were gonna say something like that. I don't smoke all the time, only when I'm stressed. It helps me relax, especially after a long and busy day at work, a cigarette helps me feel somewhat human again." Yoongi nods his head.

"That's understandable enough. I'm not judging I was just curious that's all." Jimin smiles.

"I know it's bad for you and all but-." Yoongi worries

"Minty, stop worrying I'm not judging you!" Jimin whacks the boys arm playfully.

"I don't want you to think bad of me that's all." Minty frowns.

"Why would I think bad of you? I'm a stranger you met a week ago. I know 3 things about you. I have no input on your choices." Jimin chuckles.

"But still." Yoongi shrugs.

"How about we finish off the game of 21 questions? I believe it's your turn to ask. So ask away minty." Jimin pokes the boys shoulder.

"Uhhhh.... how old are you?" Yoongi raises an eyebrow.

"23. How old are you minty?" Jimin returns the raised eyebrow.

"I'm 26 years young." Yoongi pauses walking and poses.

"Jesus Christ." Jimin laughs at Yoongi who tries to pose cutely but terribly fails.

The pair finish off their 21 question game on the train back home. As they leave Victoria train station, Jimin notices that Yoongi is walking the same way as Jimin.

"Are you walking me home?" Jimin pauses and chuckles.

"No. I live this way. I was thinking you were walking me home." Yoongi laughs.

"Do you live far from here?" Jimin tilts his head.

Does Yoongi live close to Jimin? If so the boy is curious.

"If I tell you are you going to show up at my apartment too?" Minty squints his eyes.

"N-no I was curious." Jimin looks at the floor.

"Merida stop!" Yoongi shouts.

Startled Jimin looks at Yoongi.

"What-"

"This. This is where it happened!" Yoongi points down at the floor and up above.

Jimin looks around and gulps.

It's his apartment complex. And the croissant is still on the pavement.

Shit.
