A Reflection is Not Only What I Need: A Jikook AU Complete

Reflection: Jikook AU Chapter 6

Jimin flopped backwards on the bed after sending the message to Jungkook with his number. JHope had parked on the chair by the desk and sat there, sipping his coffee, judgmentally staring with a smirk. Minnie, if you think I am going to let you off easy, you have another think coming! Especially since if what I think I saw was really what I saw. Jimin lifted his head, and heard popping sounds from his neck as he looked at his best friend, "Oh, just spit it out, Hobi."

"Who is he?"

"Tae's best friend, Jungkook." Jimin flopped back with a sigh, knowing good and well from the silence that JHope was waiting for the rest of the explanation. "He found me on the floor of the practice room yesterday. He came back with me to make sure I got here. Why he was still here this morning is beyond me though. The last thing I remember is him working on his English essay research."

"Mmhmm."

"What? That's it, I swear!" Jimin sat back up and glared again at his best friend, unaware of the light blush tinging his cheeks. JHope started chuckling as Jimin grumbled and grabbed clothes from the closet on his way by to the bathroom.

"I see you learned how to clean up after yourself." JHope called.

Jimin left the door partially open so he could still talk while he got ready. "No, JK cleaned it last night."

"So, you have already given him a nickname!" JHope grinned. Oh, ho, ho! Minnie never gives people nicknames unless he likes them. And, there is no honorific attached to the name! Maybe what I saw WAS what I thought I saw! "Aww."

"No! It's what Tae calls him all the time, and I just picked up on it. Why are you here? Why didn't you just call me?"

"I did, several times. You didn't answer, so I thought I would check here. It's rare you are not in the room already sweaty before I get there anyway. If you weren't here, then I would have called Tae and woke him up to hunt for you." JHope pulled out his phone and smirked as he looked at his last picture, "I didn't know I would find you in bed with a younger cutey."

"Yea, strange, I never heard my phone. Check it for me." He talked around the toothbrush in his mouth, then nearly choked when he realized the last thing that JHope had said and had to spit quickly. "Hobi!" He heard his best friend laughing as he got up from the chair. He made eye contact with his own reflection and realized he was blushing. Fine, yes. JK is cute. I thought it yesterday so it's not like it's a new idea. It's not like I am blind. He was really cute this morning too, all flustered over Hobi finding him here. I wonder if he was flustered because he was caught here, or if he finds Hobi cute or he thinks that we are together? Jimin blanched into the mirror. While Hobi had been in the dorm, it wasn't unheard of for the sycophants to think that he and his roommate were lovers. Oh hell no. I will rectify that as soon as possible! Hobi is my best friend, and sure we have kissed because of dares or stupid games among our friends, and we may have made out once when we were drunk, but that is all. He finished brushing his teeth. Heh. Now that I think about it, that was the last time that Hobi and I had alcohol alone together. Since then we have always made sure we were with someone else and besides, that was a couple of years ago.

Jimin rinsed his mouth out one last time and wiped his face, coming out of the bathroom. "Hey, how's the lover?"

"Annoyed as hell that I had to get up before the ass crack of dawn to meet up with someone, who I might add, wasn't even in the practice room himself because he was cuddling with a dongsaeng. And, your phone was on silent, which is why you didn't hear it." Jimin blushed and kicked at JHope, before sitting on the edge of the now made bed. What had been cluttered was also straightened up and everything completely put away. JHope was obsessive when it came to cleaning, even worse than Jungkook could ever think of being, and it helped that he also knew where everything actually belonged.
