"uhhhh... truth," namjoon said.

the two boys were sitting on joon's bed, playing truth or dare. the questions so far were pretty mild and jimin was getting ready to spice it up.

namjoon just sat there, his anxiety kicking in, scared to hear jimin's question.

"is it true~" jimin started, dragging out the last syllable, "...that you like someone?"

namjoon's mouth immediately fell open, sweat filling his palms.

he couldn't muster up a response, so he just sat there, his heart pounding.

jimin just gasped.

"oh my god! you do!" he squealed, "who is it?"

namjoon just shook his head, looking away from jimin.

he could feel his face was bright red, and he was shaking slightly.

"joon, you have to tell me!" jimin said, grabbing onto his arm and shaking him.

namjoon just shook his head again.

"it's... it's no one. really, it's not a big deal."

jimin just laughed.

"you really aren't gonna tell me?"

there was a moment of silence and, lucky for namjoon, his grandfather walked in at the perfect moment.

"hey, boys," the man said, with a smile, "i've got some fresh cookies out here if you want some."

jimin immediately gasped, jumping up from the bed, and forgetting all about his conversation with joon.

"yay!"

-

"these are amazing, sung-ha!" jimin said, grabbing- what seemed like his tenth cookie.

he and joon were sitting next to each other at the kitchen barstools, eating cookies and talking, while joon's grandfather finished up cleaning the kitchen.

"i'm glad you like them," he said, with a little laugh, "i'm heading off to bed, you two. if i don't see you tomorrow morning, jimin, it was great meeting you. you're welcome here anytime."

jimin looked up and smiled at him with a nod.

"it was great meeting you, too, sir. thank you so much for having me and cooking all this amazing food. you should be a chef!" jimin said, taking another bite of his cookie.

sung-ha just laughed, nodding.

"i'll have to keep that in mind."

the man leaned down and kissed the top of joon's head, then moved to ruffle jimin's hair.

"goodnight, boys," he said, heading off to his room.

"goodnight!" both boys said, in unison, causing them both to laugh.

-

"at least give me a hint about who you like!" jimin exclaimed.

the boys were sitting on the floor of joon's room, playing clue, and some other random bored games.

jimin had also just remembered their game of truth or dare from earlier and was dying to know who the mysterious person was that namjoon liked.

namjoon, on the other hand, was a nervous wreck, doing his best to dodge all of jimin's questions.

"jimin, it's really not-"

"please~" jimin begged, "just one clue. then i'll drop it."

namjoon sighed.

"fine," he said, doing his best to think of a clue that didn't really give anything away.

"the person i like... has hair."

jimin just laughed, shaking his head.

"no! come on, give me a good clue!"

namjoon just laughed.

"nope. you said one clue and you'd leave it alone."

jimin sighed.

"kim, namjoon, you may be giving me absolutely no help, but i will find out who you like. i'm really good at sensing when people have things for each other, you know."

joon just laughed.

"are you, now?"

"yup," jimin said, with a smile and a nod.

"well... we'll just have to see then, won't we?"

the two boys looked up from the game, making eye contact and laughing a little, small smiles on their faces.

the glance made namjoon's face heat up, quickly looking back down.

jimin was really happy. he honestly felt like joon was starting to become more comfortable around him and act more like himself. it was cool to see namjoon let his guard down and have more fun with him. of course joon still had his moments of being nervous or whatever, but that was just part of his personality. and jimin thought it was adorable.

namjoon yawned loudly, laying back onto the floor after finishing up his turn.

"tired?" jimin asked, with a laugh.

namjoon nodded, closing his eyes shut.

"want to go to bed?" jimin asked.

joon shook his head.

"no... i'm fine."

truthfully, namjoon could have fallen asleep right there on the floor. he just didn't want his night with jimin to end so soon. he didn't know the next time they would hang out.... or, frankly, if they ever would again.

"joon, you're laying on the floor with your eyes shut," jimin laughed, "i think it's time for bed."

joon just sighed, sitting up and nodding.

"okay."

the two boys picked up the game and stood up from the floor.

"where am i sleeping?" jimin asked.

namjoon let the question go through one ear and out the other, due to how tired he was.

but, as soon as he processed what jimin said, he felt more awake than ever.

where would jimin be sleeping?

it's not like they had a guest room or anything. they had a couch, but he figured it would be rude to have jimin sleep out in the living room, while he slept in his bed.

"uh... how about i sleep on the couch and you can sleep in here," joon said, proud of himself for coming up with something.

"no, joon, it's okay. you can sleep in your bed and i'll go out on the couch. i don't mind."

"no, really, you should sleep in here. our couch is uncomfortable and-"

"joon, if it's uncomfortable then you shouldn't be sleeping on it either. you're so tired, you deserve a good nights sleep," jimin said,

"how about we just sleep together?"

namjoon flinched at his words, his breath caught in his throat, not daring to move a muscle.

"w-what?"

"like... we can both sleep on your bed. there's enough room for both of us. you have a queen-sized," jimin said, with a laugh.

of course, he was just talking about sleeping.

i knew that.

"ugh... yeah, okay," namjoon said, nervously.

both boys headed to the bed and got underneath the covers, making themselves comfortable.

the bed was big enough to where they had a good amount of space between them, but that didn't stop joon's heart from beating out of his chest.

"night, joon," jimin said, flipping off the lamp on the nightstand table, and turning onto his side.

"n-night."
