What do I have to do
For this darkness to come to an end?
This cold and lonely night

~ Alone

It felt as though a mere moment had passed when a soft and cosy sensation brushed against your palm, akin to fur and skin. Despite your reluctance to open your eyes, you did so anyway.

As you fluttered your eyes open, a charming scene unfolded before you. Jimin was rubbing his face against your palm, his lips expressed into a pout as if he were struggling to accomplish something.

How can he be so cute!!!

You smiled and inquired, "What are you doing?" This prompted Jimin to flinch.

After a few moments of silence, you politely asked once more, "Is there something you need?"

This time, Jimin spoke up. "Jiminie... Jiminie wishes to be petted. Like Mimi petted Bunny..." he hesitated for a moment before finally admitting his desire.

"How cute! You should have just asked," you replied with a smile, preparing to pet him. However, Jimin interrupted you with another question. "Ask?"

"Yes, simply ask me if you want anything," you reassured him.

"Anything?" he repeated.

"Indeed, anything and everything!" you exclaimed cheerfully.

"May... Jiminie be petted by Mimi?" Jimin requested.

You smiled widely and raised your hand to pet him. His hairs were soft, fluffy, and delicate. You petted him softly, and he leaned in like a puppy. He was so cute, with his closed eyes when he smiled. He was really happy just because you petted him, which made you want to protect him.

How innocent and defenceless he was!

Lost in your thoughts, you didn't notice Jimin getting closer to you. But when he leaned in more, you realised his lips were only three centimetres apart from yours.

Am I about to get trapped?

"GWAHHHH! I had a nice nap!" Jungkook woke up with a yawn, stretching himself as he sat on the bed.

Because of that, you flinched and shoved your palm on Jimin's face, and got up with sudden force. Jungkook, who didn't think that you would be awake, just blinked at you in surprise.

Hope he didn't see my blush...

"I thought you were asleep?" Jungkook asked and looked at your blushing face.

"Are you fine? Why are you red?" he asked again.

CRAP!!!

"No, i-it's just the h-heat, you know it's h-hot," you said in a rather awkward tone.

Jungkook simply nodded, prompting you to avert your gaze, pondering the "what ifs" and "whys."

What if Jungkook had seen that! Jiminie would be out of the house, this would be a problem! Why would Jimin try to kiss me? Is he acting? Why would he act? There is nothing that makes sense!! Fuck-

"What's the matter, shotie? Why the pout?" Jungkook inquired, causing you to turn your head towards Jimin, who sported an endearing pout. However, Jimin remained silent, though the reason for his pout was known by you.

I better stay quiet

After a few awkward minutes and no response to Jungkook, things returned to normal. Jimin was engrossed in watching TV, but unfortunately, Jungkook had to depart.

"I really don't want to leave! I'll let hyung know that I'll work later!" Jungkook lamented.

"No, he'll be mad. You must leave," you insisted, dragging him outside.

"Are you doing this because you wish to spend time with this stranger?" Jungkook questioned, narrowing his eyes.

This punk!

"N-No, I simply want to ensure you don't overexert yourself... You understand, right? Pending tasks makes loads, and then your hyung will scold you," you explained, with a hint of hesitation but in a gentle manner.

"My hyung never scolds me!" Jungkook declared proudly.

You gave Jungkook a nonchalant look, "Fine, but if this shortie does anything, please inform me! I am ready to kill him at any time!" Jungkook stated before you gently pushed him out and closed the door on his face.

Finally, some peace!

"Goodbye, Bunny!" Jimin cheerfully exclaimed with a wide smile.

The remainder of the day was spent with you and Jimin cuddling on the couch, watching his favourite anime and enjoying some snacks.

Feeling the temperature rise, you said, "Jimin, I am going to bathe. Would you like to take one?" you inquired.

He was too engrossed in the anime show and munching on chips to pay attention.

Suit yourself!

Unconcerned, you proceeded to take a refreshing cold shower. After undressing, you entered the shower room.

As the cold water ran, the sensation was incredibly refreshing, cooling down your heated body. The glass began to fog up, revealing the heat your body had been holding.

With a sigh, you began to again think about the kissing incident.

Why would he do that! It took me by surprise!! Maybe I am just over thinking. I need to focus on studying Jimin, he can help me to gain my interest again! I have hope. I don't wanna lose it!

Nonetheless, as you pushed aside your thoughts, you turned around to turn off the shower when you noticed a shadow. You became alert and frightened. Hastily, you closed the shower and grabbed a towel. However, in the blink of an eye, the shadow disappeared.

Could it have been him?

You furrowed your brows and changed into your pyjamas, ready to sleep. You were exhausted after taking a cold shower. You went to the living room and saw Jimin engrossed in an adult show on TV.

What kind of crap is he watching!?

"Jimin, let's go to sleep," you said and turned off the TV, before any inappropriate scene pops up.

"YAY! Sleep!" he exclaimed and rushed to the bedroom.

He... is really innocent... How cute!

As I entered the bedroom, you saw Jimin lying half-naked on the bed.

I take it back. I must get used to this now.

You sighed and grabbed my pillow, ready to leave.

"Mimi isn't sleeping with Jiminie?" Jimin asked.

"Jiminie, I believe sleeping alone is more relaxing," you replied with a smile. You could not explain the entire situation to him that he is a stranger but you still believe him so you're sleeping in the same room

Bullshit!

"But Jiminie does not want to be alone," Jimin whined.

"No, you have-"

You were abruptly interrupted by a piercing scream, "NOOO!! JIMINIE DOES NOT WANT TO BE ALONE!" Without hesitation, you swiftly covered Jimin's mouth with your hands.

At this moment, taking any risks is out of the question. You don't want your neighbours to know this...

"Very well," you calmly stated, and Jimin responded with a delighted smile and outstretched arms making a grabby hands

Cute baby!

You cooed and embraced him, as the room fell into darkness. Both of you drifted off to sleep, finding solace in each other's presence.

Even though you are cuddling with someone you have only known for a day, the experience is surprisingly pleasant. It is a psychological phenomenon, as the warmth of affection can soothe the mind and boost the brain.

Your eyes suddenly fluttered open, revealing the ceiling of your bedroom. A sensation of heat, dampness, and discomfort engulfed you. From what you can feel is hot, sweat and heavyweight in the early morning.

I recall having turned on the air conditioner...

As you shifted to find a more comfortable position, you made a startling discovery. Someone was sleeping on your chest. You froze in place, unsure of how to proceed.

Summoning your courage, you gently nudged the person, who let out a pained exclamation.

"OWCH! Mimi, Jiminie is hurt," the person groaned.

"Oh my goodness! I completely forgot!" you exclaimed, taken aback by the realisation.

How the fuck I forgot! Last night I slept with Jimin!

You promptly descended from the bed and approached Jimin. "Jiminie, i am so sorry," you expressed as you assisted Jimin in standing up.

"Jiminie is angwy," Jimin articulated in a childish manner, with a frown and crossed arms over his bare chest.

"I apologise, Jiminie. I for-... well, I am truly sorry," you conveyed, not wishing to further upset Jimin by acknowledging your forgetfulness about his presence.

"No, Jiminie is upset," Jimin reiterated.

You chuckled awkwardly, uncertain of how to proceed, not that you are a babysitter but you felt the need to steer the conversation in a different direction.

"Jiminie, would you like to go shopping?" you inquired, enthusiasm in your eyes.

"Shopping?"

"Yes, shopping! Would you like to go?" you repeated.

"With Mimi? And will Bunny be there? Jiminie misses Bunny!" Jimin continued to pout, perhaps genuinely missing Jungkook.

My BL side is awake...

"Of course, your Bunny, I mean Jungkook, will be there!" you exclaimed, adding, "I am going to freshen up! Feel free to rest some more if you wish!" Jimin nodded, and you departed.

The act of taking a shower always brings relaxation, but you have a preference for the bathtub. As you draw the curtain and slowly immerse your feet and body in the bathtub, the sensation of being submerged in water is quite pleasant.

With your eyes closed, you begin to feel relaxed, unaware of a shadow lingering behind the curtain due to your complete absorption in the moment.

Upon exiting the bathtub, you fail to notice a figure hastily leaving the bathroom.

After dressing, you step out only to discover Jimin seated on the bed, his cheeks flushed and his eyes distant. He appears to be feverish, and as you approach to check on him, Jimin yanks off.

"Jiminie... Jiminie feels hot!" he exclaims, his face growing even redder, but he didn't let you touch him.

Perhaps it is indeed the summer heat affecting him.

Without dwelling on it, you advise Jimin to take a bath. In the meantime, you dial Jungkook's number, "Hello! Good-" but once again, the line is filled with the sound of a bunny's howl.

"What happened? Did he do something? Are you okay? Should I come over? I am ready to kill him! Is he stick-"

"Please, calm yourself, pressure cooker!" You exclaimed from the other end of the line.

"Please do not call me that, Mimi!" Jungkook protested.

"Whatever, I had called you to invite you to go shopping! Jiminie says he misses you!"

"THE FUCK! Why would he miss me?" Jungkook inquired, his face turning red which you can't see but know it all.

"I do believe you are blushing!" You teased him.

"NO!"

"YEAH!"

"NO!"

"Fine, I will go alone-"

"No, and yeah, I am coming!" Jungkook declared without hesitation.

"Then do come, baby!" You whispered. You have always enjoyed teasing Jungkook since your college days, and his blushing face is something you find particularly endearing.

"M-Mimi, please, d-don't do that!!"

"Of course, please hurry and meet us at the xxxx location within the next 20 minutes."

"Very well, I shall arrive promptly!"

You smiled and turned to see a charming Jimin, who was still blushing for reasons unknown.

Isn't his body cooled down?

"Are you feeling well, Jimin?" You inquired.

"Y-yeah, Jiminie wanna go shopping!" He replied cheerfully, and you nodded in agreement.

Upon arriving at the location, Jimin was found sitting near the edge of the bench, his hands filled with small flowers. Meanwhile, you patiently waited for Jungkook, who was unfortunately running late. It was unusual for him to be tardy, especially when the invitation was from you. He was usually the first to arrive.

Just as you were about to call him, you caught sight of his figure approaching.

"You are late!" You said, trying to hide your disappointment.

"I got late because of a witch painting her face" Jungkook said and a fist settled on his head.

"Moron!"

I recognize that voice.

"Well, Hello Mimi!! Surprise!!!"

Oh no! Fuck my shitty life!
