*circa late 2015*

You and Namjoon were at the dorm watching BTS perform. You weren't there because you suddenly came down with a sinus infection and Namjoon broke his wrist. That wouldn't stop you from supporting your brothers though, so you both sat on the couch with your bowls of ramen (and your box of tissues) and watched the MBC Music Festival.

It was finally BTS' turn to perform! An hour prior, your managers were sending you video of them rehearsing backstage and acting silly. They didn't appear nervous at all and they asked managers for you guys to send them good luck, which you did. Not that they needed it. During the performance, you and Namjoon were moving your bodies to the beat while humming along. You watched your other members rehearse for this performance so many times that you had already memorized each dance move and internally squealed as they executed them flawlessly. They had so much power tonight. Their facial expressions were fierce and serious, yet you could tell they were still having fun.

"The all-black suits are really cool," you say in awe.

"I agree. It's casual yet sophisticated, wow!" Namjoon agrees. "Wow! And look at those hip thrusts... BTS has really grown up. And V!"

You both swoon while catching a glimpse of Tae biting his lip while glaring fiercely into the camera. How dare he.

"They grow up so fast!!" You whine, slurping your ramen.

"Ah, and Jin's dancing has improved so much."

"I know right! I think he might be one-upping you, hyung." You smile and elbow him.

It was smooth sailing halfway into the performance. Until Jimin's part. During the musical bridge, he took centerstage and started serenading the camera, running his fingers through his orange hair, and slipping off his jacket. It was a semi-flirty move... he's done a lot more reckless moves onstage that would get the girls screaming, but you always ignored him. Tonight, your body was affected by his gestures a little more than they needed to be. 

It was something about his black eyeliner and dark stare.

The way he tilted his head while taking off his jacket...

Every little move had you hypnotized.

"Milo-yah!!" Namjoon calls your name and you blink several times in confusion. You look at the TV screen and see the boys bowing as the audience claps.

"What?" You shoot back.

"What'd you think?" Namjoon eyes you, waiting for an answer.

You sniffled and stuffed some noodles into your mouth. "Great! Of course. They didn't need us."

He chuckles at your response. "Guess we better join another group." He gets up from his seat and walks towards the open floor kitchen. 

You set down your empty bowl and wipe your mouth. "It went by so fast."

"The performance? It's always like that, right? You get all hyped and giddy but once you hit the stage, it's finished before it even starts," Namjoon replies.

You nod, still thinking about Jimin's performance. You didn't know why. Maybe it was because you both have been spending more time together outside of work. Ever since he's dyed his hair, he's been acting different. Trying to be more manly, more cutesy, more flirty. He seemed more energetic and confident, which is great for him. He was becoming a man.

"Jimin-ssi..." You hear Namjoon chuckle from the kitchen. "BTS' heartthrob. He was definitely the focus of the performance, huh?" You hear liquid being poured into a glass.

You moisten your dry throat. "I guess so. I was just thinking how everyone's more manly now; it's weird."

Namjoon appears beside you with a plate of chocolate chip cookies and a glass of milk. The sweet aroma brings joy to your soul.

"Cookie?"

"Yes, please!" You take two and bite into them quickly.

"I got us some milk to share." Namjoon sets the glass on the coffee table next to the cookies.

"Milk isn't good for phlegm, but who cares!" You dip your half-eaten cookie into the milk for a few seconds before pulling it out, putting the remaining softer treat into your mouth. Namjoon does the same.

"But yes... our maknaes, including you, are getting hit with puberty. Jungkookie is almost as tall as me! V's growing out of his awkwardness. And Jimin-ssi has been working out more, losing his baby fat," Namjoon's eyes get smaller as he chuckles, dimples revealed. "I think our Jiminie might be seeing someone."

Your eyes widen. "What? Why you think that?"

"Well, me and V were hanging out recently and he might've hinted that Jimin is trying to impress someone." He shoots a knowing smirk while biting into his cookie.

"Is that why he's been all happy and clingy-- more than usual, these days?" You knit your eyebrows together in thought.

"You noticed it too?"

"I notice everything." Especially when it comes to Jimin, you thought. "So who's the special person?! Did he say?"

"No. He doesn't know either-- Jimin won't tell." He coughs and picks up his phone.

"Hmm. Well maybe we'll just have to squeeze it out of him," you wiggle your eyebrows and laugh like an evil villain. Namjoon shakes his head, occupied by his phone.

"Good luck with that."

"No luck needed, I'll just need to borrow V."
