Catch Me

18

The familiar warm waffle smell floods my senses as we walk through the gates to favor heaven. Around lunchtime, there was always a rush of people coming into the ice cream store during this time. A line had formed and at the beginning of it was my boyfriend, smiling at the customers as he handed them fresh cones filled with cold ice cream. Seokjin worked the cash register, his dazzling smile, and charming jokes earning him serval laughs as well as a few tips along the way. Jimin and I got in the back of the line, making small talk as we waited patiently for our turn to order. We snake across the room as the line inches its way along. We soon get close enough to see the tops of the ice cream in the containers. Jungkook looks up from a customer to see Jimin and me in the line. He smilies wider before helping other customers.

"You are already so whipped." Jimin chuckles looking up at the ice cream board. I look at him confused and he glances down at me quickly. "Your eyes haven't left Jungkook since we entered the building, and then the smile you gave when he saw you. I wish I captured the moment." Jimin smiles at me fondly.

"Stop it, now I'm just embarrassed," I say covering my red cheeks with my hands. Jimin chuckles while gently rubbing my back.

"Oh you're fine, now come one it's almost our turn." Jungkook smiles at us as we line up in front of the counter.

"Hey you two, what can I get going for you?" Jungkook asks, leaning against the glass.

"How about two scoops and a date with you," I ask, trying not to laugh at myself. Jungkook looks taken aback before cracking a smile.

"Oh my, that hurts." His body shakes while he tries not to laugh. Jimin is doing the same, and me well I'm on the floor dying. Seokjin looks over, seeing the commotion and rushes over.

"What happened?" He asks worriedly. Jungkook places a hand on his shoulder, using him to stand upright.

"No! Don't tell him!" I cry out, standing back up.

"y/n just said the worst line I think I've ever heard!" Jimin says in between laughs. Jungkook reveals the line to Seokjin who loses it. He leans against the counter and dies. I glance behind us, making sure nobody else is behind us, thankfully we weren't holding up the line for anyone. It takes a few moments for everyone to regain themselves, taking deep breaths trying to calm down.

"Well, um. What else can I get you?" Jungkook asks, slowly regaining his workplace attitude.

"Hey! Jimin don't stand so close to the ice cream, your so hot your making even the sherbet melt!" Seokjin spits out before Jimin or I could place an order. I clutch at my sides as the laughter returns.

"Seokjin! Why would you do that! I thought we were friends!" Tears are falling down my face as I laugh.

"That's why I did it! Make yours look less stupid!" Seokjin says, tears of his own falling as he laughs. One again everyone goes through the motions, taking in slow deep breaths to try and breathe again.

"No more jokes please," Jimin begs as we regain ourselves. Each of us nods in agreement.

"Okay now seriously, what can I get for you," Jungkooks says, grabbing his ice cream scoop.

"I'll take rocky road, one scoop." Jimin orders and Seokjin begins to make it, walking down the counter to where the rocky road was, leaving me and Jungkook alone.

"What can I get for you beautiful?" Jungkook asks, turning to face me.

"Cookies and cream today," I respond, and Jungkook smiles.

"Great choice. You must have great taste." I watch as he makes my order.

"Ice cream isn't the only thing I have great taste in." Jungkook peeks an eye at me, smirking to himself.

"I wouldn't doubt it." He mutters as he hands over my cone. I giggle softly as I take the first lick of my ice cream.

"Come on love birds! I gotta get a new shirt!" Jimin yells at us, Seokjin mid-way through handing over Jimins credit card.

"Talk later?" I quickly ask and Jungkook shoots me a quick nod.

"Like I said. Completely and utterly whipped." I roll my eyes and throw a raspberry at Jimin.

"Excuse me!" My voice squeaks and Jimin falls down laughing.

"You agreed to go to SKYDIVING! Skydiving women!" Jimin throws his hands from his place on the ground.

"I mean...." Jimin cuts me off immediately.

"Save it. When I'm an uncle to Jungkook and your child, you better listen to me." Jimin jokes, getting himself back onto his chair.

"Alright alright. You've made a point." I admit and Jimin smiles proudly.

"I knew you would realize my intelligence."

"No." I begin, smiling. "I meant that chairs seem to have a rivalry with you. You said it yourself last week." Jimin frowns and his head falls backward.

"Oh come on!" Jimin protests, falling out of chair yet again. I howl back in laughter until I myself fall out of my own chair. Jimin begins to laugh himself, allowing his body to lay down as he dies from my foolish act.
