BLOOMING LOVE (JIKOOK)

Chapter: Thirteen

AUTHORS P.O.V
The next day, Jimin started to be himself again, just fixing what Yoongi told him, making the rest happy for having their Jiminie back.

Next month would be their Speak Yourself final concert in Seoul, so they had only a month more to prepare and practice. Everyone was in the practice room, practicing their choreography with their choreographer and dancers. At first, they practiced the familiar songs first, and rechecked the forgotten moves, while repairing some details on them.

They were practicing Best of Me, and it was almost at Jimin and Jungkook's part, where the two dance in sync. They danced gracefully together, executing it perfectly. Everyone watched in awe. 
"Jimin and Jungkook are really the best duo when they dance." Hoseok said, proud. He complimented the other dancers too, smiling widely, extremely proud of his dongsaengs. After practice, the seven of them sat down or laid down randomly on the floor, out of breath and sweaty.
"The food you ordered is all ready. You can eat when you want to." Their manager said, making them nod. Taehyung and Namjoon stood up to drink water, making J-Hope, Yoongi and Jin to ask them to hand them a bottle of water each. The two obeyed, happy to help their hyungs. Meanwhile, Jungkook looked at Jimin, who was lying beside him, and he stood up, taking two bottles of water. He handed one to Jimin, earning a thank you from his hyung and drank the other one.

After a couple minutes of resting, the seven of them ate together, talking with each other and laughing at Jin's hilarious dad jokes, which always got a backlash from Yoongi. After their meal, they were given an hour for a break, so some went to their studios while the others stayed in the practice room, either practicing the dance steps or their vocals.

Jungkook who was on his way to his studio overheard some dancers talking. 
"I really find Jimin and Jungkook cute together, especially when they dance." One of the dancer said, causing the eavesdropping bunny to pause. The compliment taking his attention away from his initial plan to work on his song.
"They have this charm that flows over everyone, but even more when they dance together. You could feel and see the chemistry between them, making the dance prettier and more emotional." Another one commented, making Jungkook smile. 'I guess it wasn't just me who think we're a perfect match.' he softly chuckled at the thought and continued to his studio.

JUNGKOOK'S P.O.V
I was working on a song that I planned to release as a teaser on my birthday, "Decalcomania". Suddenly, the person, I wrote it for, entered my studio, softly calling my name.
"Jungkookie~~" he called, making me to look back at him with love in my eyes. Oh, how much I adored it when he called me with that tone. Actually, scratch that, I loved it. It was sweet like candy. 
"You really love it when I come here, don't you?" He asked teasingly. Suddenly he laughed, while ruffling my hair. I was confused, and a little panicked. 'How did he know that? Am I that obvious?' My thoughts were a bit scrambled by that comment. I tried to play off my moment of panic, denying the truth.
"What do you mean? I never said I liked you here" I responded, acting like I didn't just lie to my crush. Honestly though, I love it when he's here. I want him to always be near me. He had a calming and  open aura, making me feel relaxed and safe.
"Yah! Don't lie! I've noticed how you get annoyed when the others randomly enter your studio to bug you. Meanwhile, here I am bugging you, but you just caressed my waist." He teased, chuckling while playfully hitting me. His comment made me realize what I was doing. I immediately put my hands down and fake coughed, pretending as if I didn't do that. 
"So, why are you here?" I asked curiously.
"Practice is about to start." He reminded me. I nodded, thankful for his reminder.
"Oh right!" I said. I immediately faced my computer, but as I was finishing up, I heard the door being opened. 'No. I don't want you to go.' I thought.
"Hyung, wait! Let's go together." I stopped him, immediately saving my recent work before turning it off. We headed to the practice room together, ignoring the staff's gossip when they saw us together. It always happens everyday now. Everyone's talking about me and Jimin, but it doesn't annoy me, since I know I was the reason why they kept on talking about us. I've been a bit bold about my feelings, which probably gives them hints. Some even thinking we're having a secret relationship. I don't mind the gossip and stares, just as long as everyone thinks that Jimin is mine. I was also having suspicions that some of our staff liked my Jiminie, so it's better for them to think we're together, than them flirting with him. It's better because I don't think I would be able to handle that. I've 'kinda' been having problems of controlling my emotions lately. I even 'almost' fought with Taehyung hyung when he almost kissed Jimin on accident.
