“Mina, this really shouldn’t be taking this long.” Jungkook said as he impatiently leaned on Mina’s desk.

“I’m sorry Jungkook, Nayeon never takes this long with the finance files. I don’t know what’s going on.”

Jungkook sighed, “At this rate, you’d think she was Jooheon.”

Mina laughed, “You’re lucky Jooheon’s sick.”

“Like he’d be able to hurt me.”

“A fly could easily take you on.” Taehyung interjected as he leaned against the desk while eating a nutrigrain bar.

“Hey, we don’t bring that up.”

“Bring what up?” Mina asked curiously.

“I once walked in on Jungkook hiding under a table in the breakroom because a fly landed on his sandwich.”

“Wow, so a bug fear, huh, Jungkook?”

“It’s perfectly rational.” Jungkook muttered.

Taehyung grinned, “If you say so, flyman.”

“Please don’t bribe the whole office into calling me that. Jeon Cena was bad enough.”

“When did I ever do that?”

“Don’t play dumb with me, Kim.”

“I apologize, oh great flyman.”

Jungkook’s face scrunched up in disgust. 

Mina chuckled before glancing at Jungkook’s desk and then back at Jungkook, “So, how’s the secret admirer thing going?”

Jungkook sighed, “I’m assuming you saw the geese yesterday?”

“The jelly bean poopers? Yeah, I had to clean it all up.” Taehyung said, taking another bite off his bar.

“Had to? You were eating all the jelly beans like a child.” Mina said, rolling her eyes.

“You can’t waste geese beans, Mina.”

“Don’t say it like that, Tae.” Jungkook laughed.

“How else am I supposed to say it? I ate goose crap?”

“Geese beans it is.”

Hoseok walked up to Taehyung and whispered something into his ear, leading to the two looking over towards Jungkook’s desk.

“Um, we gotta go, see you two at lunch.” The two walked towards one of the meeting rooms.

“That’s.. odd.” Jungkook said, a confused tone in his voice. He turned to Mina who seemed to be out of focus too. “Mina?”

Mina turned back to Jungkook, “Oh, sorry. I, uh, I have to go too. Nayeon texted and said she’d be right up so you just wait here until she shows up.”

“Okay.” Jungkook nodded as Mina left her desk area.

Nayeon was never this slow. She ran marathons on the weekend if that gives you an idea of how fast she likes to move. She was really nice and was great friends with Mina so that gave Jungkook an advantage when it came to the speed he received his files or other such items. As far as he knew, Nayeon was pretty nice as well. If she was friends with Mina, she was bound to be nice. 

The brunette looked around the office somewhat warily. The twelve days of Christmas hadn’t come to him over the weekend, meaning that seven swans a swimming were coming his way at some point in the day. Seven swans a swimming. Shouldn’t be too hard, could be quite simple actually. Tomorrow on the other hand, eight maids a milking, that seemed a bit harder.

Jungkook turned his head as Nayeon entered the office, out of breath. “I am so sorry Jungkook. Jooe was having trouble finding the expense reports you asked for. I swear she’s usually very organized.”

“It’s alright, Nayeon. I’ll still get done in the same amount of time I would’ve before.”  That was definitely a lie.

“Are you sure?” Nayeon asked, guilt evident in her voice.

“Absolutely.” Jungkook smiled.

“If you say so. Tell Mina I said hi. I better get back before they notice that I’m gone.”

“Will do.” 

Nayeon waved and headed back towards the stairs.

Jungkook picked up the stack of files and started towards his desk. There seemed to be a lot of files, more than the amount he had requested. Then he saw it. “Clients of March ‘18”. In other words, not his files. Jungkook groaned and was about to turn back to reception when he saw something blue peeking out from the corner of his desk. Jungkook leaned slightly as he moved closer, trying to catch a glance of the thing. A pool. A bright blue kiddie pool with seven rubber swans floating in it and a note which said “Compliments for Jungkook!”. The entire area of desks had been evacuated and he could clearly see his deskmates in one of the meeting rooms. 

Jungkook set the files on his desk before getting on his knees and fishing for one of the swans. Written in black ink on the bottom of the swan was a small, “You may think your smile is ugly, but I find it stunning”.

He set the swan aside before pulling another one out, “I find myself staring into your beautiful doe eyes more than I should.”

Another swan, “Your lush lips look so kissable, would you mind if I..?”

The ink on the bottom of the rubber swans was beginning to bleed due to the water, he had to hurry, “Don’t hide your mouth when you laugh, it muffles your beautiful laughter.”

“The way you walk is so hypnotizing.”

“Never change yourself, you’re gorgeously perfect just the way you are.”

“Your voice is soothing, I could listen to it all day if you’d talk to me more.”

Jungkook set the final swan down by the pile he had accumulated. He sighed, who could this be? Who was making him feel this way? The warm feeling in his chest wouldn’t pass no matter how much he tried. 

He blinked a little, trying to get himself to calm down. He still had work to do, kiddie pool full of compliments or not. He reached up onto his desk and pulled a box off and down onto the floor with him. He dumped the seven swans into the box where he had ultimately placed the rings and weird little jelly bean pooping geese. He was gaining a lot of toys out of this whole thing. He began to rotate the pool out from under his desk, but ultimately stopped after a couple seconds of trying. It was heavy, far too heavy even for someone who worked out regularly. 

He tried again, moving it a little ways out into the aisle, “How in the hell..?”

A folded sheet of paper taped to the opposite side of the pool caught the brunette’s attention. He pulled it off tenderly and opened it, 

“On the seventh day of Christmas, my true love gave to me seven swans a swimming, six geese a laying, five golden rings, four calling birds, three french hens, two turtle doves, and a partridge in a pear tree.

None on the weekend this time, too hard to set up a kiddie pool in December and expect it not to freeze. Sorry about the pool, by the way, I know that’s going to be a hell of a lot of effort to clean up. If it helps, it was extremely hard to set up. You know, I meant every word on those swans. You’re beautiful, Jeon Jungkook.”

Jungkook huffed with a smile on his face as he refolded the note and set the paper up on his desk. What was he supposed to do with a kiddie pool full of water in an office space? It certainly couldn’t stay here. 

Jungkook shook his head, the smile still on his face. Man, secret admirer, you are one weird dude.
