"you two really don't have to eat with me," jimin sighed; taking a bite out of one of the rice cakes on his plate.

jimin sat on his red bean bag while taehyung brought the chair from underneath jimin's bed out to see everyone. jungkook sat next to jimin on the blue bean bag; the three eating their meals.

"nonsense; we couldn't let you eat alone, jimin," taehyung smiled widely.

"well; if i'm being honest, i was more directing that towards him," jimin nodded towards jungkook; who stopped the piece of meat on his fork from going into his mouth at the comment.

"what?" jungkook asked, a little offended. "you're technically my guest, too."

jimin simply shrugs and puts some more food into his mouth. "you just...kinda seem to hate me? at first i think you feared me. now; i'm not quite sure." the smaller narrowed his eyes at jungkook; inspecting him carefully.

jungkook awkwardly put the meat into his mouth and shook his head. "i was never afraid of you. just...new to your personality."

"okay; right," jimin chuckled slightly and sarcastically. this made jungkook glare at him.

"what?? don't believe me?"

"jungkook, you wouldn't even look me in the eye a week ago. so, yes; i don't believe you."

"th-that's absurd...!"

"and the stuttering didn't help with it, either."

jungkook growled; not really having a comeback to the boy's words. he was afraid of him at first. he honestly has always had a problem with tripping over words around jimin. but would he actually say to jimin's face that he had fear for him at first sight? no. he had too much pride.

"that's because i was nervous at the situation; not you," jungkook rolled his eyes and put more food in his mouth.

there was a pleasant silence in the room after. taehyung slightly smiled to himself; glad that the two were finally getting used to each other.

he suddenly got a great idea in his mind.

"jimin; you should come into town with us tomorrow!!" taehyung spoke, smiling widely yet again.

jungkook and jimin looked at him with confused stares.

jimin raised an eyebrow at him. "say what now?"

taehyung our his empty plate down and laughed slightly. "obviously we wouldn't go without face masks, hats, and possibly sun glasses; silly! b-but you've been stuck in this castle the whole time! you deserve some fresh air. what do you say? the three of us out on the town!"

jimin was extremely proud of himself for hiding the smile that was begging to show. taehyung's giddiness was honestly the cutest thing he'd ever seen.

cutest? no. just new. jimin quickly replaced what he was thinking. well; trying to, anyways.

"that...actually doesn't sound like a bad idea, for once," jungkook nodded in acknowledgement.

"yeah—wait, for once? what does that mean?" taehyung crossed his arms and turned to his step-brother.

"anyways, what do you say, jimin?" jungkook quickly changed the topic back on track and turned towards jimin; genuinely interested in the older's answer.
