Lies

~Chapter 6~

"Yoongi, I'm home. Taehyung's here too." Jimin says as he enters through the front door, with Taehyung practically attached to his back in fear.

When they get no response, Jimin prepares to call out to his older brother once more...only to be greeted by a loud snore which seems to be coming from upstairs.

"Ok," Jimin says softly. "Remember what I told you." Taehyung nods and let's go of Jimin's shirt from the back. After they leave their shoes at the door, they head towards the sofa for a quick rest, full from the ice cream they had previously.

"Crap!" Jimin says suddenly.

"What what what?!" Taehyung says looking at him shocked with a bit of worry in his eyes. "Stomache ache?"

Jimin looks at Taehyung. "No, I forgot to get Hoseok's number. Idiot." he says as he slaps his forehead.

"Who is that and why in the world do you need HIS number? I thought Y/N was the one you were after?" Taehyung asks.

"Now that I am in the same class as her, I've been assigned to her group for the stupid project, and he just so happens to be her partner." Jimin answers.

"Is that the one we saw in the library?" Taehyung asks, and Jimin nods. "Ooooooooooo..." Tae says slowly while smirking. "You may have competition Jiminie, heh. You're in REAL trouble now."

Lord...

"I am NOT because HE won't be a PROBLEM." Jimin says annoyed. "Wait, I thought you already knew Hoseok because he's in your class before I came in...why did you ask if he was the one in the library as if you didn't know him?"

Taehyung gives him a look like he just said the most stupidest thing in the world. "Do I look like I pay attention?"

Well...he has a point.

"Anyway, tell me the plaaaaaan I'm tired of waiting." Taehyung says impatiently.

"The plan," Jimin starts, "is to be as natural to her as possible. I already know she may think something is up, so I have to be super careful. That's why I was observing her in the library too, to know some of the little things she likes. The more personal the better. It's a good thing I was assigned to her group as well. It's all a matter of time and effort."

Taehyung completely blanks out for a moment.

"Woah," he finally says. "You, Park Jimin, are twisted."

"Me!?!? This was YOUR bet and YOU put my stuff on the line Taehyung!!!" Jimin says rather loudly.

"Hey, I gave you the choice to chicken out buuuuuuuuut..." Taehyung says in an as-a-matter-of-fact tone.

"YOU KNOW IT WOULD'VE HURT MY FREAKING PRIDE TAEHYUNG" Jimin shouts.

"MAN YOU KNOW GOOD AND WELL YOU WOULD'VE LOST ANYWAY SO IT'S YOUR FAULT. IT WOULD'VE HURT ANYWAY." Taehyung says back.

"TAEHYUNG I SWEAR IF Y----"

"HEY."

.......uh oh..........

The two boys turn to each other in fear of realization. They then hear loud stomps, slowly coming down the stairs.

They woke up Yoongi.

Said man reaches the bottom step to face the two boys staring with wide eyes like deer in headlights, afraid to even move.

"WHY THE FREAK ARE YOU TWO YELLING WHEN I'M TRYING TO FRIKIN' SLEEP EH!??!?! IS IT REALLY THAT FRIKING HARD TO KEEP YOUR FRIKIN' MOUTHS QUIET!?!?"

Jimin looks at Taehyung, and he thinks he might either cry, faint, or pee his pants. Taehyung had never truly witness the "woken-up-way-too-early-for-his-standards" Yoongi. He had every right to be afraid.

"GIVE ME ONE GOOD REASON WHY I SHOULDN'T COMPLETELY DESTROY YOU RIGHT NOW."

"U-Uh..." Jimin softly stutters. "B-Because I have a midterm p-project, m-mom would kill you, and I still h-have that bet t-to win..." he finishes with a small smile.

Yoongi just freezes. Dead silence. It was so quiet you could hear a pin drop. Yoongi's eyes seemed like they were huge orbs glowing red with anger, and if one dumb comment was made, it meant world destruction. Well...at least for the victims. Those same eyes were focused on Taehyung.

Taking the chance, Jimin decided to try tactics that he had seen Yoongi do if he was ever woken up. However, he doesn't know which one to choose. Carefully, he slinks to the refrigerator, grabs some milk, pours it in a glass, and places it on the counter. He then grabs a bottle of Yoongi's favorite wine and pours it in a glass.

After having these two beverages in hand, he slowly approaches the angry blue-haired man. Jimin stands in front of him to block his view of Taehyung. As he does this, Yoongi's eyes shift to Jimin so quick that he almost dropped the glasses.

"Here, pick one Yoongi." he says carefully. As he said this, Yoongi starts to calm down, slowly but surely, and grabs the milk from his hand.

He then starts to head back upstairs while mumbling, but suddenly stops and turns around. "Wake me up again and see what happens." he says, then turns back around to go to his room and closes the door.

After a good 2 minutes, Taehyung turns to Jimin. "I told you he was scary, bro."

"That's the thanks I get for saving you?" Jimin asks. "Be happy I did it before he clobbered you when I brought up that bet."

"Whatever. I'm just glad I'm alive." Taehyung says as he clutches his chest. "Anyways, just follow through with that plan, Jimin. Even though it's super mean, you just might have a chance."

Jimim sits beside him after pouring the wine back in the bottle. "I will. It will work, don't worry."

"I'm not worried, dummy, I just told you to stick to the plan. I still want that stuff." Taehyung replies while chuckling.

Wooooow.

"Keep thinking that." Jimin says. He then looks at the time on his phone. "We only have a couple of hours before we have to head back to school. Plus I still need to get that guy's number."

"Ah, you're right." Taehyung says, but as soon as those words left his mouth, he starts to yawn. "I'm gonna fit in a little nap. Wake me up when it's 15 minutes 'til." He then turns the part of the sofa he was on into a recliner and closes his eyes.

Jimin sighs and smiles. "Ok, Tae. Have a nice rest. I think I might too." He takes the other side and does the same thing, mimicking Taehyung's position. "Try not to snore."

"Mhmmmmmmm" Taehyung replies.

In no time at all, they both drift off to sleep, gaining energy for the rest of their classes.

After his final class of the day ended, Jimin starts to search the halls for Hoseok. After a few minutes of searching, he catches him about to walk out the door.

"Hey! Hoseok!" Jimin shouts. Hoseok stops in place and turns around.

"What is it?" He asks him, clearly eager to leave.

"I never got your number. I need it to communicate about the project out of school, do I not?" Jimin replies.

After thinking and taking a deep breath, Hoseok says, "Fine, sure, you're right. Give me your phone."

After giving Jimin his number, Hoseok power walks out the door. "Goodbye." he says over his shoulder not stopping.

"Heh...see ya." Jimin says to himself and starts to head towards his car.

As he is about to drive away, he gets a text from Hoseok.

"I forgot to tell you that we have a group meeting at my house. Be there, and don't try anything. Here is my address:
XXX XXXXXXXX St.
-H"

Pfft. 'Try'.

"I'm not gonna 'try' anything." he says out loud.

"Why try...when you can do?"
