Y'all better be scrubbing your hands with hand sanitizer👹

///

It's crazy how all the quirks that Jimin has had for a very long time seemed to come back so naturally to him.

Like right now as you were driving to this so called "Chrissys", Jimin had one hand on the steering wheel and the other was placed on top of yours on your lap.

He never removed his hand unless he had to change gear.

He began to do that when you first started going out. It's so adorable to you that he still continues to do such adorable things.

"Do you remember that one time we made pancakes at your house" you said as you focused at the scenery outside your window. "That was funny" you added and Jimin momentarily glanced over to you with a smile.

"It sure was" he squeezed your hand gently. "What made you think of that all of a sudden?" He asked curiously.

"No reason" you said.

"Oh yeah?" He quirked an eyebrow. "Because if I didn't know any better I'd say that you're daydreaming about me again" he chuckled.

"When have I dreamed of you before?" You scoffed as you turned to look at him.

"You always just say my name randomly while you sleep" he admitted to you and you immediately turned red and went defensive.

"Well every once in awhile you do. It's quite adorable really. You kind of slur your words and then you smile after you say it" he said recalling the memories of you doing so.

"That is so embarrassing" you put your head in hands.

Taking your hand away from Jimin's as you did so.

He immediately scowled.

"Hide your face with one hand, I want this one" he said taking back the hand he was previously holding.

You just laughed.

"I thought you were supposed to say something cheesy like 'don't hide you're face from me' and then continue to say how pretty I am" you explained to him and he just listened intently and chuckled.

"Yeah no, I just want your hand" he replied and you just rolled your eyes jokingly.

He pulled up into the parking lot of a bar that had "Chrissys" written in big black cursive writing on it.

He stopped the car and leaned over to you, deadly close to your face.

You put your hand up against your face so you could cover your flustering cheeks from showing.

"Don't hide your face from me, you're so scandalously pretty to hide it from the world. My gorgeous muffin" he said in almost a whisper before removing your hands from your face.

He then placed his lips against yours gently and when he pulled away he got a sudden burst of joy.

"I'm so happy I can do that whenever and wherever I want" he admitted, delighted in saying so.

"What? Kiss me?" You asked and he nodded eagerly only for you to roll your eyes jokingly. "Alright lets go" you said before Jimin stopped you.

"Remember that we can go whenever you want, yeah?" He asked you seriously and you nodded with a smile. "Just making sure you know that you're my main priority here and I'd prefer to know that you want to go home at some point instead of sitting there uncomfortable and bored, okay?" You nodded again.

"Okay let's go then" he said and hopped out of the car before you could unbuckle your belt and once you went to open the door, Jimin had already beaten you to it.

"Such a gentleman" you jokingly swooned.

"Just for you my precious muffin" he admitted softly and took your hand in his and he kissed the back of it gently and began to walk towards the entrance.

The minute Jimin entered with his arm around you the whole place erupted in excitement to see him.

They skilfully whisked him away from you and they all began to chant about their win.

You just smiled at the sight and moved towards the bar where you ended up sitting on one of the many stools.

The bartender came up to you and asked what you wanted to drink in which you stood blankly.

You've never really drank before so you had no idea what to get. You didn't want to get a non-alcoholic drink as you would just be referred to as a "buzzkill" yet again you were sure.

"She'll have a fresh fruit cocktail" a voice said and you turned to see Hongjoon hopping onto the stool beside you with a smile. "And I'll have a rum with coke please" the bartender nodded and went to make the drinks.

"What are you doing here?" You asked over the loud chatter.

"Remember I went on that date with Yejin?" You recalled him going on the date and you also remembered that Jimin said he knew Yejin from his dance team.

"Oh she's on the team?" He nodded to your question.

"So I'm guessing after Jimin's whole speech at the competition that you two are together again?" He said with a teasing voice.

And you nodded feeling embarrassed.

The bartender came back with the drinks and placed them in front of you.

"Thanks for ordering this by the way, I had no idea what to get"

"No problem, I figured you'd like it" he answered with a smile.

You looked at your glass filled with a red liquid and a skewer with fruit on it placed on top.

"I'm surprised that you didn't get this considering you have an obsession with strawberries" you pointed out.

"Just because I like strawberry milkshakes doesn't mean that I get everything that has a strawberry in it" he explained to you in an annoyed tone.

"Righhhttt" you teased.

"This isn't strong is it?" You asked worriedly.

"They can be, I don't know if yours is. It shouldn't be too bad anyways" he said and you just eyed the drink wearily.

You took a sip and you waited for a few minutes to give your verdict to Hongjoon.

"I like it" you smiled as you came to your final conclusion.

"I'm glad" he chuckled.

You and Hongjoon continued to make pointless conversation as Jimin talked to a lot of people while he tried to make his way back over to you.

He eventually escaped the jungle of people and was happy to see a clearing where he could easily get to you.

He walked over and noticed you were with Hongjoon and drinking a cocktail?

Very unlike you.

"Hey" he greeted and kissed your temple. "Hi Hongjoon" he said and Hongjoon replied.

"So you drink cocktails now?" Jimin smiled as he pointed to the red drink in your hand.

"Apparently. This is actually really nice though" you admitted.

"I'm glad" he chuckled. "They're serving finger food outside if you guys want to come" he informed and you nodded immediately.

"There is chicken nuggets calling my name" you said eagerly making the other two laugh at you slightly tipsy self.

You followed Jimin outside with Hongjoon lingering behind you.

The outside was usually where people come to smoke but there was a pretty garden outside as well as a smoking area.

It was small, yet quaint.

You grabbed a plate and stacked up on your desired chicken nuggets.

The three of you sat down at one of the tables outside and Yejin joined you and you got to know her a little better.

Yejin then asked Hongjoon to come to the bar with her, telling you and Jimin that they'd be back soon.

Jimin reached over and grabbed one of your nuggets and you immediately smacked it out of his hand and back onto the plate.

"Please Muffin, I'm hungry too" he whined.

You shook your head.

"I'll give you loads of kisses tonight if you share with me" he tried to persuade you and you considered the offer and after a few moments of thinking you nodded and he smiled happily, taking a nugget before kissing your cheek softly.

"Hey Jimin" Minho exclaimed as he walked over to your table.

"Oh hey" he replied, taking another one of your nuggets.

"You don't have a drink, want me to get you one?" He offered and Jimin immediately declined.

"No sorry, I have to drive home" he explained.

"That has never stopped you before" Minho said and your eyes widened slightly, hearing that Jimin has drunk driven before and you thanked all your lucky stars that he had been alright.

"Well it does now" he replied to him annoyed that he was bringing such matters to light.

Minho just rolled his eyes and looked to you. "You couldn't have gotten a non-alcoholic drink and driven him home, no?" He scoffed. "It's quite selfish considering it is his night to celebrate"

You started to feel your eyes water a small bit, not liking the way he is scolding you.

"I-I don't know how to drive" you admitted before Jimin could speak up.

"That's kinda lame" he said. "Could've even been sober enough to at least get a taxi for him.

"Minho, leave us alone already" Jimin sighed.

"See now he's getting stressed!" He pointed out to you. "Do you want a stress-reliever?" He asked and both of you knew he was referring to a cigarette.

"No I'll just talk with y/n for a little while, she's the best stress reliever known to me" he admitted openly to him.

Jimin glanced down and saw that you had cleared you plate. "I'm going to go and throw this paper plate away Minho and when I come back I want you to be gone, yeah?" He said standing up and Minho nodded.

When he walked away Minho leaned over the table and began talking to you.

"Remember when I said make yourself sparse? Yeah that applies now" he said and you recalled him saying this when you went into the dressing room earlier that day.

You just nodded, feeling guilty about what Minho said about you drinking a cocktail selfishly and you also were a bit tipsy so you weren't in the best state of mind.

You got up and walked away and found Hongjoon and Yejin at the bar.

"Hey what's up?" Hongjoon said once he noticed his down expression.

"Minho told me to get lost" is all you said and Yejin rolled her eyes.

"He's such a prick" she admitted. "He tried to get me into his little cigarette business"

Your mind stilled when she said this.

"What's his little cigarette business?"

"He makes his own cigarettes and offers them to people for free at the beginning. And as he gives them to people he gives them stronger ones every time until your completely hooked on them beyond repair and then he has customers for life who are addicted to those death rolls of nicotine" she explained.

You were shocked by what you heard and Hongjoon turned to you, knowing exactly what was going through your mind.

"That fucking bastard" you seethed.

"Where did y/n go? And why are you still here?" Jimin asked his voice going sour while asking the second question.

"Which one do you want to know more?" Minho smirked.

"Where's y/n?"

"Pity, I was hoping you would chose the question about me over y/n" he pouted.

"I'll always pick y/n over you" Jimin glared at him.

"The past says different" Minho smirked and Jimin wanted to punch the smile off his face.

"That was in the past now where is she?" Jimin asked again.

"I don't know she just walked away. I can't remember which way" he lied. "But while you have sometime I'd like to discuss something with you"

"I'm sure it can wait" Jimin said and Minho piped up.

"No! It's quite urgent" he said and Jimin eyed him warily.

He guided Jimin to sit opposite him.

"So I want to make you a proposition..."

Minho said this and took a red and white pack out of his coat and slid it across the table top to Jimin.
