Chapter 30
No One's P.O.V.
The shameful encounter in the bathroom was the only time during the whole day when Jimin was able to get Jungkook to say something to him. After that, Jungkook was on the run again.
As soon as the bell of the last class rang, Jungkook hurried out without even glancing at Jimin. However, the latter caught up to him quickly outside the school gate and grabbed Jungkook's neck in his arms.
"Hold up, will you?" Jimin was out of breath from all the running.
But Jungkook only stayed silent and tried to free himself while staying so. Jungkook might have a strong built but Jimin was no joke, either. He was just as crazy about workout as Jungkook. So it wasn't really that easy to get out of his grip. Jimin only tightened his grip at the younger's attempt and dragged him along.
Once Jungkook realized that Jimin was not planning on letting go of him anytime soon, he gave up and let himself be dragged. When Jimin felt the lack of effort he let go, slowly and carefully, so that if there was an attempt to escape he could grab on again, quickly. Jungkook, however, didn't do that. He walked with him, albeit, quietly.
"I'm sorry." Jimin said after a while of walking. Jungkook didn't respond, though.
Jimin looked down and spoke again when he understood that there won't be any response coming from Jungkook, that easily.
"I didn't really want to hurt you. It's just- you were laughing so much when you told me about their tricks and I didn't think you would mind one on yourself. I really didn't know. If I did I would never do such a thing. You know that, don't you?"
Jimin looked to his side at Jungkook who was still not saying anything. Jimin sighed and stopped walking. He half expected Jungkook to ignore him and walk off but he stopped, too, and turned to look at Jimin. That was such a relief. Jimin was glad at the thought that there was still a chance for him.
"You could have done something else, something.. not so serious, don't you think?" Jimin smiled at that. Not the question. But the fact that Jungkook was finally talking to him. Even though it hadn't even been 24 hours since Jungkook started ignoring him, it still felt like years to Jimin.
"It wasn't my idea. I swear on my jams. Those crazy ass new friends of yours were the ones who told me not to contact you. They said you were fine with everything they do. I wasn't going to agree but when they said you were okay with it, who was I to say no?" Jimin jammed everything into one sentence as he hurried his explanation in one go. But Jungkook was used to his panicked briefings so he was able to catch every word even though the speed was fifty words per second.
When Jimin stopped, Jungkook tried to stop the smile that was threatening to split into a grin on his face. He quirked his eye brow at the shorter boy.
"Crazy ass new friends of mine?"
Of course. It's Jimin we are talking about, here. How could he disappoint Jungkook by not using weird explanatory words?
Jimin looked at him, confused, for a second but then almost jumped.
"You know, that alien and scardy cat."
Strike two.
Jimin's nick names made him blurt out the next question.
"And who's who?" Jimin grinned at that. Finally, old Jungkook was back to him. They began to walk again as they continued their conversation on their way.
"Taehyung is the alien, and Hoseok is the scardy cat."
Strike three. And Jungkook's anger was out for good.
"Mhmm. And why's that?"
Jimin bounced as he took a step ahead, turned towards Jungkook and started walking backwards while Jungkook moved forward.
"Well, you see, Taehyung comes up with really weird ideas out of nowhere and he even thinks them as legit. I swear he needs to see a doctor. Also, he does double role play so perfectly, you would think he has been doin' that since he was four. And don't get me started on his choices in food. He would ask for a strawberry cake when others order a proper meal at a restaurant. Oh! And he even blows out candles on other people's birthdays. Can you believe that?"
Jimin laid down a long list of Taehyung's attributes in front of Jungkook, making the younger wonder how on earth did he find out all that. And what else is a better way than to ask the related person?
"How do you know so much about him when you haven't been with him as much I have?"
Jimin paused and looked down as he realized that the source of his information was also the source of the Jungkook's anger. But he shook that thought away as Jungkook had come to an understanding with him, already.
"I got to know him and Hoseok during the time I was hiding from you. I was.. actually.. staying at their house to hide from you." Even though he had convinced himself that Jungkook was not mad at him anymore, he felt a new wave of guilt rise up in him as he explained himself. Jimin stopped walking again making Jungkook stop, as well.
Jungkook only hummed and made sure to memorize everything about Taehyung for future use. Wait, what future? Jungkook shook the thought away and focused on Jimin again before a crazy blush made it's way to his face again.
"And how is Hoseok a scardy cat?" The question made Jimin look up again and the worry disappeared making way for a huge grin as they moved again.
"That's the best part, Kookie~. You can scare him so easily and it always works. Always. Taehyung would scare him with his deep voice every time we would go in a dark room and Hoseok would scream like a girl every. Single. Time. It was so hilarious. We should try it, too."
Jimin was already laughing at the memory but Jungkook only smiled since he hadn't really thought of Hoseok as an easily scare-able person.
As they neared Jungkook's house, they saw Jin out on the road. He was standing there with his arms crossed on his chest and his gaze focused ahead. Jimin and Jungkook followed in the direction Jin was looking at only to see that he was watching Taehyung and Hoseok. The moment they saw what was happening they both burst out laughing, right there.
Taehyung and Hoseok were standing in the middle of the street, still in their uniforms- which meant that they had just arrived from school, and were dancing crazily but without music. On top of that, they were waving every passing vehicle with a loud shout of 'I love you'.
However, the look of embarrassment on their faces showed clearly that neither was liking it in the least bit, which only meant one thing.
They were forced to do it.
Jimin and Jungkook put two and two together and realized that Jin was most probably making them do it. When older boys' eyes met with younger ones' the embarrassment doubled and they dropped their heads low making Jimin and Jungkook laugh even more.
Taehyung cursed under his breath and glared at Jin who only raised his eyebrows at him. He immediately looked back down and continued with his dancing.
After nearly ten more minutes of humiliation, Jin silently went back in. When Taehyung and Hoseok saw him going back, they instantly dashed back inside, as well. Since Jimin and Jungkook were supposed to bring them both with them on their way home, they had to follow them which they did.
They walked over to the Kim residence and rang the door bell. They could already feel that it was going to be a very lovely day. A few seconds later, the door opened revealing a very content Jin. When he saw who was at the door he smiled brightly and hugged them both, immediately.
"Oh! Jungkookie~ Jiminie~"
Jungkook and Jimin returned the gesture softly before backing away.
"Come on in." Jin stepped away to let them in.
"Ah, hyung, thank you. But we came to ask if Taehyung and Hoseok can come over? His mother really insisted that they should." Jimin explained pointing towards Jungkook.
Jin's smile widened at that and he agreed, immediately.
"Of course, of course. They are in their room. Why don't you go up and tell them, yourself? They'll surely love it." The hint of amusement and evil behind the sweet tone was clear like a blue sky but the boys ignored it, purposely.
They thanked Jin and made their way up to Taehyung's room. The door was closed so they, being the well-mannered kids, knocked and waited.
The door opened slightly and an angry looking Taehyung appeared. When he saw the grinning faces in front of him his eyes went wide. He was having mixed emotions at the moment and couldn't decide which to act upon first.
He was surprised and glad to see Jungkook in front of him but he was beyond shocked to see him laughing. He was also feeling extremely embarrassed from his little act out on the road, from a moment ago but he was more embarrassed to be caught by Jungkook doing it. But then again, he was happy to see Jungkook laughing because of him but the embarrassment was too much so he didn't want to face him. So you see, it was so jumbled up that he didn't know what to do so he stood still eyes still wide and overflowing with all those emotions.
