Chapter 55- I'll Race You

Jimin looks up giving you a strict look, "Yes, I'm being very serious, and to prove that I am going to take you to Busan with me,"

This catches you off guard and you turn your head to face him with wide eyes,

"WHAT?" you ask, your eyes nearly popping out of your sockets as you freeze in your spot.

"What you heard," he says nonchalantly.

He is absolutely joking right now, this is not true!!!

You Think as you actually believe that he is only saying this just to make his point clear.

To be honest, he's actually really nervous. He has admitted to wanting to start getting know each other but he has no idea how to act around you now. Should he tease you? Should he not? Are you going to believe him? Or was he too late to tell you and now you are going to throw the plate with the words 'REJECTED' to his face.

You on the other are in a state of shock. You truly, truly were not expecting this happen. You believed it was so impossible you didn't even prepare yourself mentally and emotionally, in case this was the result. You have no idea what to say, what to think how to act.

"Hold on, Hold on," you say, closing your eyes trying to gather your thoughts but they are just too many. Your head feels like exploding.

"What is going on?" you ask as you open your eyes and look at Jimin. You try to read him, -trying to see somewhere in his eyes that he is lying and he's only trying to catch you like a fool, but you see nothing of that. You only see insecurity, embarrassment, honesty and nervousness.

Knowing that he is nervous as well helps bring up your confidence a little bit. If both of you stay as an embarrassed and confused messe then no progress will be made and no questions will be answered.

Jimin hears your questions and he sees that still you are not convinced enough and even though it irritates him that you don't show him this much trust, it happens to be logical for you to not believe him. So he needs to be patient and prove to you that he's not just messing around.

"Okay," he gulps realizing that he will have to say it again, even though he feels exposed once again.

What if she's messing with you?

This overused question pops up in his mind again and he gets that old feeling that makes him feel sick to the core.

No, she's not. She was the one who suggested it in the first place, why would she be fooling around?

He responds to his mind and blinks a few times as he watches your face with an expression on it that says you are utterly confused.

"This all is too much for my brain to handle," you mutter as you look around and sigh, cutting Jimin off as he was about to speak,

"You," you point your finger towards Jimin, "Just told me that you want to get to know me, and that you're being utterly honest,"

"Yes," he nods not saying anything else as he sees you're still contemplating.

Am I hearing right?

"Can you-" you begin, "Can you say it one more time?"

"Why?" he asks, believing that he escaped it before when you spoke up before him, but that is not the case anymore.

"Because--, Bec- I don't know, it just seems unbelievable," you sigh and run a hand through your hair again.

Seeing you like this, all confused, messed up and utterly shocked because of him, Jimin's confidence builds up and he smiles,

"I" he begins, taking a step closer to you since you distanced yourself while you were freaking out,

"Want," he takes another step closer

"To be friends," another one,

"With you," he takes one more last step and he's now standing in front of you.

"Did you hear me clearly?" he says and you nod, repeating the words in your mind that he said.

"Did you get the information nicely stored in your brain?" he asks playfully, hoping to make the mood lighter.

"Yeah...," You whisper and escape from the trace you had entered in this short time.

Now, Jimin feels that disappointment starts to consume him and his confidence crumbles down again. He was expecting a better reaction from you, a more cheery and happy one, not this confused as fuck mess with the blank expression on your face that he cannot read.

Are you disappointed with the result or what?

"I was expecting a better reaction from you," he mutters in hopes that you don't hear him but he's not even half a meter away from you, of course you'll hear him.

Your eyes go wide as you realize you're not saying anything and it's just plain awkward. Both for you and him. It was you that set the big question on the table and dissed him about the many times you offered friendship that he rejected and now that he's not rejecting you're standing here doing nothing.

"I'm sorry, I'm just shook," You admit, "I had prepared my self with so many sassy responses to your rejection that I didn't even think about the case where you'd agree... This is me being caught off guard," you admit not daring to look at him and widening your eyes too look around and waving your hands in the air trying in some way to express yourself.

Now, what draws your attention to Jimin is the fact that he starts laughing at what you said. Your eyes are averted to him and you see him clutching his stomach while he has thrown his head back laughing his heart out.

"You- You prepared sassy responses?" he says through laughter and you find yourself being embarrassed.

"I mean, I... Aaah," You try to think of an excuse but you're too flustered to think of anything smart, "Yes...," You sigh.

Jimin continues laughing, his laughter filling the empty street, however while he's at it he stops and he sneezes. Loud.

You become startled at the sudden sound and you look back at him. You see him curled to the front as he slowly fixes his posture once again and he blinks away the extra liquid that formed in his eyes, due the need to sneeze.

"Bless you," you say.

Then you notice that he is wearing only his turtle neck.
You definitely did give him his coat when you were at the porch, what happened to it? Why isn't he wearing it?

"Ah, thanks," he says and then looks at you staring at him, "What?" he asks.

"Why aren't you wearing your coat? I'm sure I gave it to you before," you say and then avert your eyes to look at his.

Now, the mood is still awkward but it's less than before. You became more accustomed to how the things have evolved. A part of you is still wondering whether it is a dream and your subconscious is playing a cruel joke on you but it slowly becomes more accustomed as well, as time passes.

"Oh.. Uuhh...," Jimin says as the event that took place a while ago comes to his mind. The event where he gave ChaeRin his coat because she was cold, "I gave it to someone," he says not mentioning ChaeRin, not sure if he should tell you or not and also not knowing what your reaction is going to be.

You purse your lips and start taking your black scarf off.

"I can't give you my coat, I don't think it'll fit you," you say referring to the fact that he's more masculine that you are and your coat definitely will not fit him,

"But wear the scarf," you say as you extend your hand for him to take the scarf buy he only looks at it and then back you, questioning what you are doing.

"Take it," you say but he does nothing, "It's black it doesn't look feminine," you state wondering if he doesn't accept it because it is a scarf for females.

"Why?" he asks and you start getting annoyed.

With a deep sigh you take the scarf and tie it around his neck, trying to cover as many parts around the area around his throat and neck as possible.

Jimin's eyes go wide at your decision and the finds himself blushing a bit, thank goodness the lighting from the street lights is not enough to make it visible to you.

"What...are you... Doing ?" he asks not sure how to respond to all this as you fix the scarf around his neck and cover part of his face as well.

"Being a friend," you say not daring to look at him.

How is it possible that at the same time you have all this confidence to do these actions but you're also feeling extremely awkward and embarrassed?

"Thanks," he says and the sound comes out a bit muffled since the scarf is covering his mouth.

"No problem," you say and a step back to create some distance after you finish fixing the scarf.

For a few seconds awkward silence takes over as both of you look around avoiding each other's glances, but that is until Jimin's phone rings again.

"Yes, Jungkook?"  he says when he answers his phone, "Okay, we're coming don't leave yet, wait for us," he hangs up and puts his phone back in his pocket.

"What happened?" you ask knowing it was Jungkook on the phone and he must have said something relating to the party.

"They all will be leaving to go to a karaoke center, Jungkook said that they'll leave without us if we're not there in ten minutes,"  Jimin explains looking at you as you purse your lips.

"Okay then... Let's go," you say both of you start walking on the way to the where the party is held.

Both of you walk in awkward silence trying to think of something to start up a friendly conversation between you but nothing comes up.

Aaaahh, seriously Y/N think of something!! It's not that hard, just ask anything! Anything will do really,

You push yourself and when you finally come up with the idea to ask him about how the dance lessons are going at the dance school he's teaching, hoping to keep the conversation alive after that, Jimin is faster that you and speaks up.

"You know we'll have to go faster than that if we want to be there in ten minutes," Jimin chuckles as he walks next to you.

"You want to run?" you ask raising an eyebrow at him and he nods.

Suddenly you feel your competitive side surfacing and a smirk finds its way on your lips.

"You want to race, don't you?" Jimin says as if he read your mind.

Surprised at his guessing skills you nod meaning a yes.

"Okay, but let's make it more interesting, the winner gets to have a whish that the loser must complete, you agree?" Jimin says and a smirk is plastered on his face as well.

"Cool," you shrug, not feeling really confident about this, since it is Jimin, a person you just began to get to know, and if you lose you'll have to grant him a whish and you have no idea what this mind of his might come up with.

But you see that he's being a lot friendlier than he used to be and you wonder how it is so easy for him be change like that, so you try as well to create as less tension as possible.

And if we run we might as well warm ourselves up a little bit. 

You think to yourself as you and Jimin and get into position.

"On three," he says and you nod, "Count with me."

"One," both of you say,

"Two,"

"Three," and so you start running as fast as you can.

At first Jimin is ahead of you but you pick up your pace and you reach him, soon getting past him.

"Yaaaaah!" you hear him yell not far from behind you, but you don't dare to look back as you will lose your concentration.

Soon you feel a tug at the hood of your coat pulling you back. It's Jimin trying to get past you, but before he manages to create some distance between you, you grab his arm and pull him back to get in front of him but he holds you and turns you around letting you go once you are facing the opposite direction.

You turn your body around and start chasing after him, "NOT FAIR, PARK," You yell and he laughs but soon you are the one laughing your ass off because Jimin slipped  on the ground because ice has started to form on the ground due to low temperatures and the snow that is falling.

You stop running and stand next to him as you can't contain your laughter.

"Aaaah," he whines in pain as he lies on the ground but you continue laughing as the fall you just witnessed was hilarious.

"Shut up," he says and attempts to playfully hit your calves as revenge but you move a bit further and he simply just waves his hand in the air, thing that causes you to laugh even more.

"I'm sorry," you say once you manage to catch your breath, "I'm sorry, are you okay?" you ask as you walk closer to him and offer your hand to help him sit up.

"I think," he says, grabbing your hand and once he's ready to sit up and you try to give him support, you erupt into a fit of giggles again as the image of him landing on his but shows up in your mind and you let go of his hand and he gives you a poker face.

Is she really doing this?

Then you take a step to the front and you find yourself falling down, first with your but and then your whole body follows.

Jimin erupts into a fit of laughter as he turns on his side and clutches his stomach.

You yourself start laughing again, despite despite the aching at your butt. You try to imagine how you must've looked that you fell and for an odd reason it seems hilarious to you.

As you and Jimin keeping on laughing suddenly you hear the sound of windows opening and then an old lady comes out,

"Yaaaaah!! You junkies! Go take your shots somewhere else! Not here!!"

And soon both of you see a shoe landing in front of your feet. Suddenly you and Jimin stop laughing wondering why the hell shoes are being thrown from the sky and then you see the other pair of the shoe joining the previous one.

The old granny is definitely trying to get you and Jimin to leave her neighborhood.

Suddenly your phone starts ringing again and you sit up to answer it after sitting up.

"Yaaaah!! Where are you? We're leaving!" You hear Jungkook's voice once you answer.

"Just five minutes, Kooks, we're coming," you refer to him with his nickname and you hear him growl and mutter an 'Okay' before he hangs up.

"Come on let's go, they're waiting,"  you tell Jimin as he too stands up and starts walking with next to him.

"Wait! Did that granny just say we're junkies?"

"I think she did..."
