(He loves him)

Jimin’s Pov:

After pleading with him, he allowed me to follow him and we drove to a Korean Restaurant – Yee Hwa Restaurant.

He requested for the VVIP room and of course, that wasn’t a problem for someone like him and we were able to get it.

We sat alone in the beautiful room and placed our orders and when they arrived, I was surprised at how fast he rushed them. Wow! Indeed, he was pretty hungry.

“Gosh! Thank goodness I wasn’t born a Qataris. I would’ve committed suicide a long time ago.” he said as he ate with relishment and I laughed.

“You would’ve probably been used to it” I told him and he shook his head.

He was eating an apple Bulgogi, while I handled the Jajangmyeon. We ate silently for a short while until he broke the silence.

“Why were you spying on Da-Won and I?” He asked and I almost poured out food from my mouth.

But luckily I didn’t.

“Huh?” I tried to purport.

“You let the food get burnt because you were carried away staring at both of us. Why?”

“Uhm” I paused and itched my head.

“Really, Jungkook, it’s nothing. I was just…coming to check out who the visitor was. I had no idea the food was going to get burnt under that short period” I replied and he scoffed and looked down at his food.

Oh, Jimin. I just hope you don’t get yourself into any more trouble.

“Let’s play a game -truth and truth” he said after a while and I squinced.

“Truth and truth?” I repeated.

“I t…thought it was something like truth or dare?”

“Do you really wanna play dare with someone like me?” He asked with a smirk and I shook my head immediately.

Goodness! Am I crazy?

“Okay, then. Let’s get started. You go first. Ask me a question and I’ll answer truthfully.” He said and I dropped my spoon to think of a perfect question.

“Uhm…what’s your favorite meal?” I asked and he smiled.

“Ah! Nothing like chips and dips” he replied dreamily and it made me laugh.

Whom would ever believe Jungkook could be this playful?

“Okay. Nice” I replied and ate from my plate, awaiting his own question.

“Who’s your favourite songwriter?” He asked and I chuckled- nervously.

“Uhm…that’d be a boy named Jeon Jungkook.” I replied brimful with smiles.

“Hm. Jungkook. Haven’t heard of him before” he remarked and I laughed.

Gosh!

Okay, now it was my turn again.

“If you were asked to make one wish at this moment, what would it be?” I asked and noticed his countenance changed a bit.

“I’ll ask for a chance to be forgiven” he replied and I grinned.

“Forgiven?” I asked in a low key and he sighed.

“Hey, you don’t get to ask a double question, okay? Now, it’s my turn” he said and I let a faux smile and lowered my gaze to my food.

“This songwriter – Jungkook – what do you like about him?” he asked and a wow escaped my lips.

What a question.

I dropped my cutleries and joined my palms together.

“Uhm…actually, originally, the only thing I liked about him was his voice and…good looks and that was because he had a grumpy attitude. He was too rude and arrogant and so, there was nothing else I could really like about him.” I replied and he busted into laughter the moment I was done.

“So, you’re telling me to my face that I’m grumpy?” He asked and I joined him in laughing.

“No, hyung. I’m just talking about someone else who’s Jungkook…”

“Oh, really?”

“Yeah”

We paused and laughed again.

“Okay. Now, it’s my turn.” I said and cleared my throat.

I think I’m really enjoying this.

“What’s the happiest day of your life?” I asked and he dallied a little before saying: “None”

What?

I stared at him in surprise as he got ready to ask me his own question.

“If someone like Taehyung opens up to you and tells you he loves you, are you gonna accept?” He asked and I opened my eyes wide in surprise.

What the hell?

“J…Jungkook?” I called and laughed nervously.

But he didn’t smile at me; just staring and waiting for an answer.

“Well, I…” I paused and cleared my throat.

“I won’t because…I don’t love him” I added and he rose his brows.

“Really?” He asked with a scoff.

“So, you’re trying to tell me you won’t go stripping in front of him if he asks you to?” He asked and immediately, I used my spoon to hit him on his hand.

“Of course, I won’t!” I half-yelled – playfully – and hit him with the spoon and just then, I gasped, realizing I had overreacted.

I paused and looked at him and he also stared back at me with a look of surprise.

Why on earth did I hit him with a spoon? The world’s precious Jungkook!

“I’m…” I tried speaking, but he stopped me by hitting me on the head with his own spoon.

Ouch!

I looked at him with a pitiful grin and we ended up laughing together.

Awwn! That was so sweet.

I cleared my throat and ate a little from my plate.

“Okay…my turn” I said and got ready to ask him my own question.

*

Eating with him that day was so much fun and by the time we were through from there, it was almost evening.

We drove home breezily and unfortunately – for me – Da-Won was already there, waiting.

“Hyung!” He called immediately we got out of the elevator and as usual, he embraced Jungkook.

“Oh, dear. Where have you been? I’ve been waiting for like ages now” he said with a childish grin as he arranged the collar of his shirt.

“Sorry. Just went out to get some things” Jungkook replied as he pouted his lips like a baby.

“Awwn. So, what did you get for me?” He asked and he chuckled.

“Uhm…good evening, Sunbae” I decided to greet so I'll know I wasn’t owing him any other thing.

“Oh, Jimin darling. And how’re you today?” He asked genially.

He really seems friendly. Just that he’s too close to my Kookie.

“I’m fine, Sunbae. Thanks” I replied with a smile.

Then, Jungkook opened the door and we all went in.

“You know, you need to make it up to me, Jungkook, for keeping me waiting all these while.” He said as he plonked himself on the couch and I also sat, adjacent to to him.

He was one good looking guy with a small body structure and mostly behaves as freely as a child.

If not for the fact he’s too close to Jungkook, I’d have adored him so much.

“I’m sorry, Da-Won. I had no idea you’d be coming around” Jungkook replied and just then, a call came into his phone and he excused himself from us and walked away to make the call.

“Isn’t he just adorable?” He asked, his cheeks turning red as he stared at the direction Jungkook had taken.

What?

Don’t tell me he’s drooling.

“Sometimes, I feel like I’m the luckiest boy on earth to have someone like him as a close friend. He’s so sweet! Do you feel it when he smiles? And all those times he touched me, I feel like I’m in heaven.!” He said dreamily and hugged himself.

“You…you like him?” I forced myself to ask and he gasped and looked at me.

“What do you mean like? I love him! Jungkook has been my crush for years now! He’s my life.

“We’ll make a perfect couple, won’t we?” He asked and giggle and all I could do was stare speechlessly.

“You know,” he continued and leaned forward, like he was about telling me a secret.

“I plan on telling him about it soon – my feelings. I want him to know about it so we can finally be together. And…I think I’ll be doing that tomorrow” he said and laughed hysterically.

What the hell?

Is he joking or what???

Immediately, Jungkook came in and he stood up.

“Jungkook,” He called ecstatically and arranged his collar.
“Too bad I have to leave now. I got a call from my boss before you guys arrived and he wants to have a meeting with me.”

“Okay, then. No problem” Jungkook replied and he smiled and hugged him.

“Goodnight. Wish you good luck at the concert” he said as he head for the door.

“Thanks. Good night”.

“Bye, Jimin” he said as he finally left.

Ha! At last.

I so can’t believe this guy. I can’t believe he’s in love with Jungkook and wants to confess his feelings to him.

“Hey” Jungkook called, trying to get my attention.

“You okay?” he asked and I nodded.

“Okay. Come on; we need to practice” he said and led the way and I followed.

*

We practiced for a long time and finally, it was time to sleep again.

Grrr!

I still haven’t found out how I ended up on the bed this morning.

“Why’re you scared of sharing the bed with me, Jimin?” He suddenly asked as we stood in the dining where he was taking out a juice from the refrigerator.

Huh?

I cringed and itched the back of my neck, wishing I could just disappear.

“Huh? Why?” He turned and faced me, now holding the juice in his hand.

“Do you think I’m a pervert?” He asked and my eyes gleamed immediately.

What?

“Of course, not Jungkook! You…you’re getting it all wrong. I just don’t wanna make you feel uncomfortable” I replied, looking above his head.

“Seriously?” He asked and scoffed.

“Jimin, if I wanted to do anything to you, I wouldn’t necessarily need a bed” he said and I swear, my heart left my chest.

Whaaaat?

“Sir?!” I shrieked and he laughed.

“Chill, I’m kidding. I’m just trying to say you should trust me and feel comfortable around me. I don’t bite – at least not anymore” he said the last part in a whisper and left, going to the room.

Oh, God! Am I really going to sleep next to him on bed?

Oh, Jesus!

I placed my hand on my forehead and sighed, thinking deeply.

I guess I’m left with no other option, then. Besides, what am I thinking?

He won’t harm me. I trust him.

Wait; do I?

I took in a deep breath and finally went to the room and there I found him already lying on one side of the bed.

Tracing my steps, I walked slowly and when I got to the bed, I climbed on it.

He was facing my direction. So, I laid, backing him.

“Should I turn off the lights?” He asked and for some stupid reason, it sent shivers down my spine.

“Uhm…yeah” I replied in a tone I could hardly hear and next, he turned off the lights.

I remained still in my position and suddenly thought about certain things were running through my mind.

Tomorrow was going to be my last day with Jungkook in Qatar and also the concert. I hope the concert goes well so we can all go back home safely.

And for Da-Won, I wonder if he’s really going to confess to Jungkook tomorrow and what would his reaction be? Who knows if even likes him as well?

I remained quiet for a long time and wondered if Jungkook might have fallen asleep already. Or, what if he’s awake and is staring at my butt?

I decided to turn and check.

So, I slowly turned my neck to look at him and…what the hell?

I saw his two dazzling eyes gleaming in the dark, staring at me.

Oh, God!

I quickly turned around but that didn’t stop him from asking.

“What’s it?” He asked and I exhaled softly.

“Nothing.” I replied nervously and felt him smile.
