"My turn. Do you have a boyfriend?"

Um. What?

I turn to him, raising my left eyebrow and my right brow facing downwards looking confused.

"How do you do that?" He plays with his eyebrows, furrowing them both up and down at the same time.  When he realises that didn't work, he holds one of his brows down with his fingers and raising the other.

"There I did it!" His face brightens up with his cheerful smile.

"You're such a child. You look stupid," I chuckle at his failed attempt, flicking his ears.

"Ouch!" He hisses in pain, rubbing his ear.

"Oops. I guess I did it too hard. Sorry," I try to sound sympathetic.

I just have the habit of hitting people I'm comfortable with, that relates to me being annoying to everyone.

He also flicks my ears but I could tell he did it softly, but this didn't stop my over dramatic self.

"OUCHHHH!" I pretend to yell in pain, crunching down as I fake a sob.

"Babo! Stop your act, it won't work on me. You look stupid." He laughs. But I continue to act, hoping he would give in eventually.

"This isn't funny," I rage. "It actually hurts, you insensitive asshole." I catch his eyes slightly widen. Maybe I was too harsh, calling him bastard. I was about to stop, but he gave in first.

"Fine fine. What do you want?" He tries to calm me down, and I lowkey smirk. Free food, here I come.

"A kiss to take the pain away?" He adds, my smirk drops, transferring to his face.

I immediately stop, sitting normally on the bench before looking at him with my poker face.

"Geez you're so corny." I roll my eyes at him.

We continue to tease and tell random stories, slowly opening up to each other. There would be some awkward silence at some point, but the rain's roars help contribute to the silence.

"I wonder what the time is now." I randomly mention as I shiver, staring at the rain that still hasn't calmed down.

"Uhhh," he pulls out his phone and my eyes widen at the sight of it. "11. We've been here for about 1 and a half hour already."

"YOU HAD YOUR PHONE ALL ALONG?" I screech. "You could've called someone to come here and bring an umbrella! And I could've called Hyeji to do the same!" I snatch his phone out his hands making him flinch by my sudden action.

"Woah! Are you an experienced thief?" He jokes.

"Unlock your phone." I hand him back the phone with a pissed look my face.

"1310." He just looks at his phone while I'm still holding it.

"O....kay...." I was surprised at how open he is with his phone.

"What're you tryna do anyway? Look through my camera roll to see my selfies?" He smirks.

I roll my eyes at his over confidence. "I'm calling Hyeji to rescue me from your lame jokes." I put the phone in my ears waiting for Hyeji's pick up.

He opens his mouth, about to speak, but I cut him off. "Hyeji!"

I continue to instruct her what to do, giving her reassurance every time she panics as Jimin stays silent.

"Alright, THANK YOU! Mwah!" I kiss her over the phone before ending it and giving it back to Jimin.

"Thanks."

"Where's my 'MWAH!' ?" He pouts.

"I didn't think you were such a playboy Park Jimin." I hit his head.

"Yah! Stop hitting me! I'm your oppa, you have to respect me." My face immediately cringes at his word "oppa" scrunching my nose.

"Oppa?" I scoff in disbelief. "I hit everyone okay?"

"What's wrong with 'oppa'? And do you just walk in a crowd and start hitting people randomly?"

"Of course not babo!" I laugh. "Only to close people, geez."

"Oh..." He smiles mysteriously, making it creepy.

"What?"

"So I'm part of that 'close people' now?" He smiles proudly.

"Whatever." I stand up seeing Hyeji from the distance.

"How will you get home? Go call someone to bring you an umbrella too."

"Yep, I will." We both watch Hyeji arrive with one umbrella.

"Why do you only have one?" I scold her, seeing how strong the rain is, and one wouldn't be enough to shelter the both of us.

"Because yours is broken. It can't even open. Be grateful you idiot." I go quiet, feeling guilty for scolding her earlier.

"Ok let's go. Annyeong Park Jimin!" I wave at him coolly, Hyeji bows, showing her manners before we both speed walk our way back with arguments about how I'm not getting enough shelter from the umbrella.

"What happened with you and Jimin anyway? I didn't know you had company," she gives me a seductive look as I throw a pillow directly at her face to shut her up.

"Long story short, we bumped onto each other at the convenience store, then it started raining, so we waited for it to stop, taking shelter at the bus station." I rap, explaining it quickly and shortly.

She was about to open her mouth, but I cut her off. "Come on, I'm tired and cold okay? I wanna go to sleep." I crash on my bed, stirring around finding comfort and embracing the warmth with my blanket.

"Alright, goodnight." She turns off the lights.

My eyes shoot open, staring at the ceiling that was lightly shone by the light outside. My mind flashes back to Jimin and I, having a random, yet comfortable conversation.

My lips curve unwittingly into a smile, as my heart's thumping beat disturbs the silence in the room.

My expression swiftly drops as I put my hand on my chest, physically feeling the pound. I squeeze my eyes shut in frustration.

You like people too fast Mia.

Author's POV

Jimin observes the two figures disappear, standing at the edge of the shelter.

"Mia," he chuckles to himself. "Song Mia." His expression changes into a soft reassuring smile.

"Indeed an interesting girl," he whispers to himself as he walks around the back of the station and picks up something from the floor.

He opens it, putting it over his head before heading home.

A/N: I was so frustrated since Wattpad was messing up with everything. I wrote this chapter ready to be published the next day from when I published the previous chapter, only to find out it was gone and wasn't saved.

So I rewrote this chapter again, and it also didn't save despite how much I spam clicked "save." I was too frustrated to do anything so I took a break from it.

Luckily the next day, all my drafts were back and were actually saved. I had 3 separate attempts of writing the same chapter!

Moral of the story: Copy paste your work into your notes or Microsoft word to ensure the safety of your work.

Thanks for reading though!
