Part 13 - The first project meeting

Yn dashed down the corridor towards the maths lab. She was late. As she reached the door, she slowed down, took a deep breath and straightened her hair with her fingertips. She knocked, but hearing no reply from within, she felt relieved that she had made it to the meeting before Namjoon. She opened the door and walked in, halting on the spot at the sight before her. Namjoon was listening to music on large leather cushioned headphones and dancing energetically with his back to her. Yn watched amazed as he shimmied down and then rose up thrusting his hips towards his waving elbows. He suddenly piroutted and faced her, his eyes closed and his lips slightly apart. Yn watched wide-eyed never having seen him without his glasses on or so active physically. Suddenly his eyes flew open and met hers. He jumped to stand up straight so quickly that he knocked over a pile of books that had been on the edge of the table.

"Yn!" Namjoon exclaimed and cleared his throat awkwardly. He pulled the headphones down around his neck and picked up the fallen books. "I thought you were not coming!".

"S-sorry Namjoon.....I got late.....should we meet another time?" Yn stuttered.

"No, no.....uh.....no problem.....come, sit!" Namjoon gasped, a bit breathlessly, ushering her to a chair. 

Yn beamed at him and sat down. Namjoon quickly put on his glasses and took a deep breath, before taking a seat opposite her. He started to shuffle about with some papers. Yn watched him for a few seconds and then couldn't help a giggle escaping. Namjoon blushed under her gaze, but started reading out aloud the project guidelines. When he looked up at her, he saw that her face was tensed with trying not to smile, and the sparkle in her eyes indicated that she had not listened to a word he had said.

"You're still....thinking of the little display I put on earlier huh?" Namjoon grumbled.

To his surprise Yn burst out into peals of laughter. She laughed until tears escaped her eyes. Namjoon watched bemused.

"I- I'm sorry Namjoon!" She managed to gasp out.

Namjoon exhaled letting out a long tense breath. This seemed to make Yn snap out of it.

"I had no idea you were into hip hop dancing!" Yn exclaimed "You were really good!!" She smiled, her face still flushed from all the laughter.

"I see," Namjoon responded "comedy dancing is not really what I was aiming for" he raised an eyebrow at her.

This time it was Yn who blushed. "It wasn't your dancing that was funny Namjoon, it was just that it was so unexpected!".

Namjoon liked the way she said his name. He liked the way she laughed. He cleared his throat recovering. "Shall we make a start as it is getting late?"

Yn nodded vigorously "I'm so sorry, yes, let's!".

As they worked on drafting ideas for possible projects related to the topic set, they worked well together, both pleasantly surprised at how easily they got along, despite having never spoken. They did not notice that the sun had begun to set outside the window and that the room had darkened. It was only when Yn's tummy gave a soft rumble that they noticed how late it had gotten. Yn blushed hard, sitting up straight, and pressing a hand onto her tummy. Between Tae helping himself to her breakfast and Jimin and Tae hijacking her lunchtime she had not eaten all day.

"I kind of missed breakfast and lunch today" Yn explained, still blushing.

"That is not good, you should not skip meals" Namjoon advised in his soft deep voice. "Let's go out and grab a quick bite to eat before I walk you home".

Yn stared "You - you are going to walk me home?" She asked surprised.

"Yes of course....I'd feel better knowing you got home safe" he replied nonchalantly. 

"That is so kind of you......thank you Namjoon!" Yn texted Tae and Ygf to let them know she would eat with Namjoon and then come home later than planned.

They tidied up for the night and started to walk out of the building, enjoying the cool evening breeze on their faces, when a motorbike drove straight into their path. They both stepped back in shock and watched as the rider, dressed shoulders to boots in black leather, slowly removed his helmet, shook his head to let his hair fall perfectly and smiled a dazzling smile at them. Yn gasped as she realised it was Park Jimin.

"Jimin!" Yn gasped her tone shocked, but delighted.

Namjoon shot a surprised look at her. 

"Heard you might need a lift back from your project meeting" Jimin smiled at her.

"Thank you so much Jimin, but Namjoon and I were going to get a bite to eat before he walks me home" Yn replied, her voice revealing that she felt wistful at not taking up his offer.

Jimin glanced at Namjoon "I'm sure Namjoon is very busy Yn, the maths competition is so close, and I can drive you home after a......bite" he licked his bottom lip slowly and then grinned at her. 

Yn stared at Jimin speechless and missed Namjoon's incredulous expression as he watched her. Namjoon cleared his throat.

"Yn that sounds perfect, Jimin will take you home, I will see you later" Namjoon quickly muttered as he walked briskly away into the darkness.

His sudden departure finally shook Yn out of her reverie. "Namjoon? Namjoon! Join us??" She called after him. But Namjoon had placed his earphones on and did not hear.

Jimin passed her a passenger helmet and smiled at her.

Yn blushed and took the helmet placing it over her head. Jimin leaned over to adjust it. His sweet sexy fragrance enveloped Yn for the second time that day. Having ridden behind Taehyung for years, Yn sprung up on the passenger seat and looked for the handrail. When she could not find it she asked Jimin confused "Erm Jimin....where is the handrail?"

Jimin turned back to smirk at her "It's broken.....hold onto me...and tight......it's gonna be a fast ride!" He giggled and put his helmet back on.

Yn stared at him open mouthed and shouted "What?? Noo I get scared on fast rides Jimin!"

Jimin shook his head and pointed towards his ear over his helmet, indicating that he could not hear her. He started the engine and grinned cheekily as he felt her quickly wrap her arms around his waist.

He rode off as fast as he could as Yn shrieked from underneath her helmet and held onto Jimin's waist even tighter.
