Gym class is about as alone as I'll get with Taehyung. English and literature are too crowded. Jungkook's with us at lunch. I don't really care if the other guys hear it, but I don't want Jungkook to know how I feel just yet. Taehyung also has night school tonight and I planned on going to the studio. There really was no other time. Not even when walking home since we part ways as soon as we cross the street. Besides Jungkook typically walks me.

I felt myself go from a full run to a light jog. Taehyung noticed instantly. Turning back to look at me. He arched his brow.

Now that I'm faced with telling him how I feel about Jungkook, I almost don't want to. I feel like I shouldn't. Like it's almost rude or wrong in a way.

"Jimin, you're slowing down. You good?" Taehyung asked.

He ran backwards over to me. Continuing to jog slowly beside me. That's when I just sighed and stopped. He nudged me with his elbow and smiled. I shook my head and scratched the back of it. He pouted a bit at my silent response.

"Cheer up, Mr. Byun will yell at us if we stop. Did you eat? Get enough sleep?" He felt my forehead.

Leave it to Taehyung to be Mr. Perfect. Always kind and caring. He's always bringing in that safe warm feeling. He's so kind to me. Still playful and can be an ass, but never fails to be a sweetheart at the end of the day. I appreciate him as a best friend very much. I feel like it should make me less nervous to tell him because of this, but it doesn't bring me any ease at all.

"Yeah" I half smiled.

"Drink enough water?"

I don't know why it felt wrong to tell him. It's not like I'm confessing my undying love to him. That would be understandably difficult since he wouldn't like me back for sure. Instead, I'm just trying to tell my friend that I have a fat crush on his best friend. Maybe it's because I don't want him to feel awkward whenever we're around Jungkook. The two are practically brothers. It could also be because I've never liked someone this before before, so this is all new to me. Maybe both.

"Taehyung do you like anyone?" I dismissed his question to ask my own.

If he likes anyone, then it would be easier to tell him as long as he told me too. I would feel less alone in my feelings. Unless of course he likes Jungkook. That would be unfortunate. Although, I'm pretty sure he doesn't. He never gives off that sort of vibe with Jungkook. They really do seem like siblings. I couldn't see them together in a romantic way. It actually seems kind of wrong even. I know that could just be a bit of sudden jealousy speaking, but I personally don't think so. The two have known each other so long and are so comfortable that you'd think they'd been raised by the same people. It really would be odd of him to like or even love Jungkook in any way that wasn't platonic.

"Well, um- No." He didn't look at me as he answered. He cleared his throat right after too.

He said no, but his actions tell me he's lying. That's fine. He doesn't have to tell me. It's clearly an awkward topic anyways. I just really hope that it isn't Jungkook. It couldn't be. I'm almost certain it is absolutely not Jeon Jungkook.

I nodded before I began to jog again. He didn't start up with me. I looked back at him to see an unreadable expression on his face. I waved him over. With a head shake and a change of expression, he ran over to me.

"Do you like anyone?" He asked once he caught up to me.

"Yeah." I admitted.

I shrugged to seem cooler about it than I actually am. Although, there wasn't much hiding it. I'm very expressive. Whatever I'm feeling is obvious in my actions, tone, and just my face. I'm an emotional person. I have feelings. They're hard to shut down.

"Who?" His eyes were filled with curiosity.

I picked up my pace to buy more time. He caught up and shot me a confused look. He kept up with my speed and was silent. Eyes still set on me as he waited for me to speak.

"Um. Are you sure you don't like anyone? If you tell me, I'll tell you" I tried to strike a deal.

"I'm sure. Who is it? "

He clearly had to push his answer out. It's ok though, I really won't try and force him to spit it out this time. I guess I just figured I'd try again to help myself out.

"Ah- well, It's a guy" I started, but stalled.

His curious expression grew into a smile. His eyes softened as they became crescent shaped. Although he didn't put on his typical box like smile. This smile was a bit slanted. The risen corner of his lip was opened enough to peek through. This wasn't just his cute and friendly one. It was his awfully playful smile. The one him and Jungkook both only use when they make jerk ass comments.

"Really? I would have never thought you liked guys! It's not like you drooled over that actor in the movie we watched yesterday." He rolled his eyes and shook his head. "Nam Joo Hyuk's so hot, Nam Joo Hyuk's so strong, so-"

"Hey!" I slapped his arm hard.

He laughed a bit before rubbing the spot.

"Just tell me" He pouted.

"Promise not to be upset or tell him?"

Saying that alone makes it obvious. Then again. It could be any of the other guys too.

Jin, the broad and handsome one. He's got a slim but muscular build similar to my favorite actor. He makes lame dad jokes and laughs the hardest at them. He also eats all the food we leave over at lunch. He's got a thing for gossiping. Still sweet as can be though. One of the first to console you if you need it. I think that besides me nowadays, he's the second closest to Taehyung.

There's Yoongi too. He's a bit of a grump. Jungkook enjoys poking at him any chance he gets. Of course not more than he does Taehyung. Yoongi is the quieter of the other guys. Won't get much out of him. He's small, not like i am, but still. He's pale too. I'm not too familiar with him besides knowing he's handsome though. Taehyung would probably figure right away that it's not him

I can see him thinking it might be Hoseok. I'm still not too close with him either. He's very nice, tunes into Jin's lunchtime gossip the most. He's also a dancer like I am. Although, much thinner than I am. He's a decent height and tan. Handsome, but not really of my interest. The only thing he has going for him in my book is that he is nice and can dance.

"Ok, I promise" He agreed.

"Jungkook"

I didn't waste any time in saying it once he agreed. I really didn't want to hold it in any longer. The longer I did the more anxious I got. Taehyung really isn't someone to be nervous around, yet in this moment my nerves weren't settling. It was so relieving on my part to get it over with.

Taehyung on the other hand looked a bit sick. That's when the relief left me. His eyes widened and his mouth fell agape. His shock seemed a little exaggerated if I do say so myself, but not all too fake.

"Ah, I guess I sort of knew that" He sighed awkwardly.

"Is it obvious?" I questioned.

I'd never worried much about being obvious. I don't think it's ever crossed my mind really. The thought instantly made my stomach feel upset. Wouldn't you normally want to be obvious? That way your crush knows you like them, so they will show you like you too if they do. That's logical, but it also is terrifying. If I'm too straightforward, Jungkook will know for sure and turn me down. If I'm not his perfect flower boy then confessing would be a joke.

"Not horribly so"

I sighed. Thank god. I couldn't take it if he knew I liked him before shedding a few pounds. Then again, maybe I don't need to. Not everyone absolutely sticks to their type. I could already be small and cute enough for Jungkook. Except, he did call me a mochi the other day. That was kind of upsetting once I realized what he meant.

"Do you think he likes me?" I still questioned.

"He hasn't mentioned it. That's not to say he doesn't. He's not the type to really mention things like that. He's someone who keeps his emotions to himself. Don't worry about it, he's been that way his whole life. He'd be a complete idiot not to like you." He explained.

It seems like that was just a long way of saying 'probably not'. That's all I got from it anyways.

"Oh, ok. Thanks. I hope he does." I tried to sound happier than I am.

"I hope he does too then" Taehyung smiled sweetly and ruffled my hair then.

That did make me feel a little better I guess. He's so supportive and friendly. I'm so glad I can call him a close friend. I hope nothing tears us apart. I don't know what I'd do without him.

"Thanks Taehyung. Oh, by the way. Would you consider me a flower boy?"

He puckered his lips. The question was clearly weird to him. His cheeks tinted red as he looked up at the ceiling.

"Uh- I mean, yeah. You're decently dainty. Why?" He scratched his head.

"Jungkook said he liked flower boys. I was worried that I didn't fit that well enough"

I am worried that I don't fit that well enough. Dainty definitely isn't the word I'd use to describe myself.

"You're fine the way you are. Don't fuss over things he says."

"Ok..."

Am I? I wondered.
