"Seul-ah" he called out softly, sitting up straight.
For the umpteenth time today, Seul's face started to lose its colour again.
Interlacing their hand together, Jimin took a deep breath before breaking the eerie silence again "Since it come to this, I will play it fair beside Jungkook" he professed.
"What do you mean by that" she looked at him clueless.
"I see you as a woman..."
"........"
"I like you a lot Seul. More than you imagine. This feeling is torturing me" Seul lips quivered letting the emotions overflowed her. Then it hit him hard, so this was the thing that Namjoon hinted her earlier. Jimin was another someone in BTS who had similar feelings as Jungkook.
Seul squeaked "Jimin..I...don't know, it is just-" he hushed her, shaking his head slowly.
"Don't... I want to play it fair as I mention. You don't get to decide now. We will give this thing a time. I don't mind, as long as you allow me to show my genuine feelings for you. Will you?"
"Jimin..I might not be worth fighting for" she looked down on their intertwined hands, giving him a soft squish.
He sighed "Yes you are. I deny my feelings enough Seul and I am not doing that again. It only hurts you and I. That is not worth it, I am embracing my feelings that I have for you. Let me fight along with Jungkook" Seul heaved a tired sigh.
"I don't want you to get hurt. I don't want Jungkook to get hurt. What if, this only bring pain rather than happiness?" she expressed her worries. Even though, it was indeed true you couldn't stop yourself from falling in love, but this issue was more than just that. It involved a lot of thing.
"We will manage that. I talked this out with Jungkook"
Her eyes rounded in sheer surprise "You did? When?" she inquired.
"Urm... as soon as the talk with Namjoon hyung ended. Jungkook is more than just a friend, he is my family. We talked about this. Seul, it is not like we plan to fall in love with the same person. It is coincidence. We will be able to manage this without hatred" Jimin convinced.
Seul needed a moment to decipher this whole thing. The idea of being in the middle of Jimin and Jungkook was so bad making her unsure of herself. If this only involved these two guys then it would be fine to her, but what if someone else resurfaced and professed the same thing, like Yoongi. She shrugged off the thought of the possibility being fight over again by another member.
"Jimin..I am not sure, I am scared of the future"
"Then lets live the present, that is important. Do not think about the future"
"At the end of the day, I will still have to choose" she protested.
"And when that day come, we will ready our heart Seul-ah. It is long way to go, do not let the future hold us back" he whispered, caressing her cheeks lovingly.
It never dawns on her to experience this kind of thing this year, what a mess. Did her decision to replace her mother as BTS Caretaker only to cause chaos rather than promoting peace?
Seul sighed, resting her head against his shoulder seeking for comfort and warmth. This thing was draining her energy, she felt numb. Jimin wrapped his arm automatically around her shoulder, bringing her close to his chest "I am sorry if this is too much for you to handle Seul" he rubbed his arm, planting soft kiss on top of her head.
Curling up in his embrace, Seul buried her face at the crook of his neck, inhaling his sweet manly scent "I am sorry that I can't give both of you the answer that you want" she mumbled against his skin.
"Why are you sorry? We don't need the answers now, we only need your presence around us. That is enough" he soothed his lock, smiling ear to ear at their close proximity. He had been dreaming doing this thing with Seul, having her in her arms and cuddling on the sofa. It felt unreal.
"Thank you Seul.."
"And what is that for?"
"For existing and allowing me to experience this"
Seul smiled to herself "That line is so cliché Jim. And, thank you for having that kind of feeling for me. " he beamed. Jimin locked his arms around her tighter, nuzzling her hair in process. Whatever it takes, Jimin would never deny his true feelings anymore. He's willing to see how far this could go. Only that he was not able to see what the future beholds, it never stops him.
Her lids started to grow heavy, and she found herself enjoying Jimin's warmth around her. Was this a start of everything? She did question herself what change after today. Guess, Seul had to live with the fact that in one day she received two confessions from an unexpected male.
Her life was about to get interesting.
-----------------
When Jimin woke up it was eight in the morning, they had cuddled on the couch and fallen asleep. Jimin smiled to himself admiring Seul's sleeping face, he felt a warmth that he never experiences before. Seul looked exhausted and calm in his embrace. His moist lips landed on top of her head to get her to wake up.
Few minutes later, she roused herself and with her eyes perfectly shut, he could see her sweet smile on her face "Did we fell asleep here?" she stretched a little, burying her face shyly in his chest.
Jimin chuckled, stroking her back gently "Yes, but we did get a good sleep anyway" Seul nodded and sat up followed by Jimin afterwards. As soon as her eyes landed on Jimin's morning hair, she giggled and leaned closer. Raking her fingers in his soft lock, she stroked it gently, fixing it a little while Jimin was too busy staring at her.
"There you are set to go" she exclaimed. Her chirpy voice lightens up his world, what a good way to start a new day. "Oh shoot, it is late I need to clean the house and prepare you guys breakfast. I hope Jin is not awake yet" she combed her hair getting ready to leave.
"You go out first I will come out later. You don't want to be bombarded by questions this early" he pinched her nose. Scrunching her nose cutely, she gave in with the idea. Seul arose from her feet and as she was about to leave, she skipped quickly to his side.
Dazed Jimin gave her a questionable look, she closed the gap between them, planting a soft kiss on his cheek. He turned giddy over it and she heard her whisper "You said to give both of you a chance. So, I am giving both of you a chance. Good morning Jimin" with those last word, she skidded outside the room with a bright pink face.
Jimin buried himself once again under the soft blanket, letting himself fanboying over this small tingly feeling that he had this early. He would never regret his decision. Just like he said, he would only live the present for now. The future was still far ahead, anything could happen until then. If he worries the future now, it would be no fun in dealing with his every day's life.
