He lets out an interested 'huf' but lightly smirks while doing so, "You forgot your phone and backpack"  he says, and raises you backpack to your range of vision.

"Gaah, I'm such a dumbass" you exclaim and hit your forehead repeatedly a few times. 

How could you forget your backpack, let alone leave your phone at the mercy of seven boys, few of which know your password. 

"Thanks, tho" you tell him and make an attempt to take your backpack from his hands, but he pulls back biting his lower lips, and raising his free hand in front of your face and waving his index finger indicating a 'no' 

"Thanks what?" he raises an eyebrow waiting for you to get what you are supposed to say. 

You forrow your eyebrows and the corners of your mouth fall down making a frown, thinking whether Koreans say something specific after the 'Thank you'  part but nothing comes to your mind, "Thanks Jimin?"  you ask cautiously. 

Jimin sighs in irritation as he rolls his eyes,  "Jimin What?" he says putting more emphasis on the 'what'. 

You blink your eyes at him clueless not figuring out what he wants you to say, your head feeling more heavy as you try to investigate what is missing from the words you are saying to him. 

"What?" you ask blankly looking in his eyes. 

He sighs again in irritation, rubbing his hand against his forehead, "You should seriously show some manners to your elders"  

And now it hits you, he's pulling the 'Oppa'  thing again.

Having grown really tired of this, you give him the 'are you fucking serious' look before grabbing your backpack and the forcing it out of his grip. 

You turn around with no words and continue walking towards the bus station. 

However, Jimin decides that you have not been teased enough and jogs to catch up to you. 

"Aaah, you really need to be taught a few things" he says pruning his lips, while casually walking next you. 

"What are you doing?" you ask not giving him a glance. 

"Making your life hell. Plus, you're ill you might need help" He responds. 

What the actual fuck? What game are you trying to play, Park? I'm not following up. 

"I don't need you" you respond with a cold voice and as you say that you step on your shoe laces and find yourself falling, heading face-first to the ground. However, two hands catch your coat and pull you back before you go too far with your fall and they help you regain your balance. 

"You were saying?" he asks cheekilly. 

"Thanks," you sigh, and internally cuss at your clumsiness and loose shoe laces as you bent down to tie them. 

"Thanks, what?" He asks mockingly. 

"Thank you for being kind enough and not let me kiss the ground with my face" you give him a full answer through gritted teeth, without it requiring the name 'Jimin'  or the word 'Oppa'. 

"Good enough, but not what I wanted" He says pulling the corners of his mouth down and tilting the his head to the left,  a little bit. 

"I'm not giving you that pleasure," you say as you stand up feeling a little bit light headed from the sudden move.
 
"You still have to" he says in a sing-song voice. 

You really don't understand what he's trying to do, a few hours ago, he was all hostile, grumpy,  rude,  offensive and now all he's all cheeky, helpful, and willing to take you home. Well, he didn't say the words exactly like that but it seems like he implied it.

Okay, your blood has started boiling, can't he just drop it? Do you have to shoot fire to make him stop? Well, you haven't really tried it, maybe you should... Oh well, Here goes nothing;

"No, I actually don't. I am not going to use the word 'Oppa'.  Had you been my brother or a really, really, really close friend, then fine, I wouldn't mind that much. But you are non of these. I don't know you. I don't trust you, you are a stranger to me. So why should I call you 'Brother'  when there is no such connection between us?"

And now you've managed to make your head hurt even more.

At your last words Jimin finds his stomach dropping. He's not really fond of the fact that you guys are not close. It is kinda weird, like he wants to be able to endlessly tease you and sometimes get a laugh from you in response as you do when the other boys tease you( instead of the  100% honest answer you give him, followed by a neutral uninterested, or sometimes honestly angry facade) but at the same time he doesn't want to make the effort and become your friend, because he tells himself that he doesn't want and should not make the effort to be your friend. He has convinced himself that he doesn't want to be your friend because he simply doesn't like you, the way you act, the way you speak etc.

However, deep down he knows, that he's just keeping himself away because if he gets too close to you he'll be charmed by your act,  fall for you and in the end you'll just take of the mask of 'kind and caring'  you are wearing and simply destroy him, just like last time. 

And now 'last time' literally has come back to hunt him again. If only she'd go away and leave him to peace. 

"Hello!!" You wave your hand in front of him as you have grown tired of waiting for an answer. 

He doesn't respond though, at least not until when your phone starts ringing in your backpack. You open your bag search for your phone for a few moments and pull it out once your hand makes contact with it. 
Your thumb slides across the screen, accepting the call, and you answer not having looked at the caller ID.,

"Yes?"

"Y/N" you hear Eun-bi's loud voice from the other end, "Please tell me you haven't bought the hair dye"

​​​​​​"Uuhh... No?" you lie of course you bought it but you used it as well, you put most of the product on Jimin's shampoo bottle so you'll have to buy another one for Eun-bi. 

And then you wonder why you don't have enough money to buy essentials. 

"Great! I changed my mind. I don't want red, I want blue!" she tells you through the phone. 

"Blue? Okay, what shade?" you ask her and rub your forehead gathering the strength to last just a little longer until you make it to your bed. 

"Any, whatever you like, I trust your taste" she says,"Thanks a lot, Y/N, see you at home" she says before hanging up. 

You pull your phone from your ear and fish it in your coat's pocket. You sigh as you look up at the sky in tiredness. 

"What?" Jimin asks.

"Ι have to go to the drugstore" you say still looking up at the sky. 

"Come on let's go" he says and grabs your arm dragging you to the drugstore across the street. 

You not having the strength to pull back and go on your own, you follow him and let him drag you there. 

​​​​​You unzip your coat and let the warm air of the store embrace you. 

"So what are we looking for?" he asks shoving his hands in his pockets looking around. 

"Blue hair dye" you mumble and walk to the aisle with the hair dye shampoos and search for the different shades of blue they have. 

Jimin stays behind for a bit,  you don't even realize because you are in much too deep thought about which shade you should buy for Eun-bi. 

"Uuum, Y/N, " you hear Jimin mumble from behind you and you look up at him humming. 

However, the moment your eyes land on him, your face is met with a plastic plate, but between you and the plate is a soft yet creamy product. It's wiped cream. 

The hand that forced the plate to your face pulls away releasing some of the pressure. You stand still, not moving from the shock, after a few seconds the plate decides to abandon your face and fall on the ground making a sound, while leaving most of the cream decorating your face. 

You hear Jimin's laughter coming from beside you, you can't see his location, so you bring your hands in front of your face and wipe the cream from your eyes. 

"What. The. Fuck?" You ask aggresively stopping after every word to put emphasis on how angry you are. 

"Payback" he chuckles, and you see him having his phone pulled out and snapping pictures of you, "This is becoming a Christmas card" he says through laughter bitting his lips. 

​​​​​​"You're a jerk" you tell him trying to keep your self from giving him the pleasure of lashing out and making it more entertaining for him. 

However his laughter dies once he hears his name being called by an all too familiar voice that always sends goosebumps down his spin,  "Chims!!!"  says excitedly a girly voice from behind you. 

You look at Jimin and see his smile gone only to be replaced by nervousness and awkwardness as well as him regretting the very moment he stepped in this Drugstore with you.

But wait, you are with him, maybe he can finally prove to that girl that he doesn't want her and she'll leave him alone in his lonely peace, that of course using you without your consent. Thing he doesn't really care about right now. 

"Chae-Rin!!" Jimin says flashing to the girl behind you and awkward but also fake smile,  "How are you?" 

You turn around to see the person, and your eyes land on a very, very, very pretty girl. She definitely fits the Korean Beauty Standards; small face, V shaped jaw, small petite lips, small nose, big brown eyes and large eyelashes- obviously enhanced with some mascara- and of course light skin. Her hair is rather long, stopping by her waist, starting from the top with a shade of beautiful chocolate brown and then from a certain point they're dyed ombre with the color of light mint turning darker as it goes further down. She could be a role model for all you know. 
"I'm good, I'm really good" she gives him a mischievous look, "So, I guess she's the girlfriend you were telling me about?" she says and looks at you. 

You find yourself startled at her words, "What n-" you try to say but Jimin speaks louder than you covering your voice.

However, he doesn't say what you expected him to say. 

"Yeah, yeah, it's her. You just caught us in the middle of a prank war" he smiles and protectively puts an arm around you. 

At that moment you get a feeling of déjà vu. It feels like you have lived this before, feeling and arm protectively wrap around your shoulders and makes you feel like you are a tiny, tiny thing yet so precious and important. 

You shake the feeling away, thinking that you have got to say that you and Jimin are no couple but a worker from the store beats you by handing you a few napkins to clean your face,
"Here you probably need them" she bows and leaves.  

"Thanks," you do a small bow to her before she leaves and separate one napkin from the many. As you are about to bring it to your face, a hand stops you midway and takes the napkin from yours. 

"Here let me do it" says Jimin, unwrapping his hand from your shoulder and turning you around to face him as he supports your chin with his one hand and slowly cleans the wiped cream from your forehead with the other. 

"Aaww, you guys are so cute!"Says Chae-Rin with a sweet voice, however you can feel that she's not being honest, and instead is full of jealousy.
 
Aaah, Chims,  you better not get me into a chick-flick fight with her. I don't want any enemies. You already are enough. 

"You should share a kiss and I'll snap a picture, then you can make that a card for Christmas!!" she says with a cheerful voice. 

The moment you register what she says Jimin's eyes find yours and they freeze in fear. You give him a look clearly saying 'Don't you fucking dare, Park Jimin' but he's either too dumb or he actually wants to kiss you. You think it's probably the first one since he still looks like a deer caught in headlights as he gulps down and inches his faces towards yours. 

If he believes you're going to give him a kiss, let alone your first one, he's seriously having problems.

Yes, yes, I said first one. Like mentioned before, no activity in this part of yourlife, like zero, never even went to level one, always zero. Maybe a bit of flirting here and there but always not the right timing to move on; The boy you may have liked at a certain time didn't like you back, or in cases where boys hit on you, you had eyes for someone else or were not interested in that person. Besides, you didn't and still don't want to share a kiss with someone who you don't have an emotional connection with. Going around and randomly kissing people will become a routine and, at least to you,  it will lose the spark people say it has. Adding to that, you also protect your self from diseases transfered from kisses and saliva. 

"Woaah!!" you push his chest back, "Did you forget? I'm sick! I don't want you getting ill" 

His cheeks turn to a matching shade of red with his hair,"Oh my, how could I have forgotten," he rubs the back of his head, awkwardly smiling.
 
"And, I don't mean to be rude, but... I dont know you" You turn to the girl giving her your most polite smile. 

"Oh! I'm Shin Chae-Rin, Jimin's ex girlfriend" she says and extends her hand for you to shake. 

Oh, so that is why Jimin is acting that weird. He probably wants to make her jealous and he's using you to succeed.

Oh the little git is going to get it for using you like that. 

You raise your hands in a defensive manner, showing that their covered in the whiped cream Jimin slapped your face with earlier, and you-- aside from the many questions that keep shooting across your mind-- have got to ask him from where he got that cream. He can't have magically appeared it, right? 

"Oh, okay" she says with a tint of disgust in her face, "It's nice to meet you! And for a foreigner your accent in Korean is pretty good" 

Will anyone ever stop pointing out the fact that I'm a foreigner and that my accent is good? 

Ppshh, no where do you think you are? 

Responds the little annoying voice in your head,and as much as it annoys you, it's right. The pointing out will never stop. 

"Aah, always nice to meet people from ChimChim's past" you try to act like a sweet yet threatening girlfriend and give her your most sweet smile as you wrap your arms around Jimin's torso, well as much as your thick coat allows you to. 

If Jimin is going to bury you in this mess you might as well make him embarrassed. 

Nevertheless, the way his nickname 'ChimChim'  rolled out of your tongue sent chills down his spine, what made him even more flustered is the way you slowly snaked your arms around his torso, hugging him. 

Man, you sure manage to mess him up. 

"It's good to know that Jimin has found someone so nice" she says returning the smile. 

She's a tuff nut, really putting up a good facade to prove that she's happy, but you can see right through her, she's jealous. 

"Anyways, it was really nice seeing you after all this time Jimin," Chae-Rin says smiling and Jimin frowns from the inside thinking that they met earlier today,  "and it was nice meeting you... Uuhh..." she trails off blankly looking at you. 

"Y/N" you tell her your name with a smile. 

"Y/N beautiful name" she smiles, "Well, goodbye. Hope to see you again some time"  she sweetly says and bows before turning around walking to the cashier. 

You wait for her leave the store before to you turn to give Jimin an 'Are you kidding me' yet strict look. 

"Care to explain?"
