Chapter 8

Your POV

I was laying down on my bed, shuffling around to try and fall asleep. I've been doing this for the past hour in hopes of falling asleep but I am failing miserably.

With a sigh, I sat up with the help of my arms. Then I heard a faint sound of someone singing. They were singing wonderfully and I wanted to know who was the owner of that beautiful and soothing voice.

I followed the sound and went to the window that leads to the balcony. And there I saw the singing man who's back was facing me. He looked so calm and peaceful that I didn't want to disturb him.

I made my way to the balcony as quietly as I can where I can hear him clearly. His voice was soft yet stable and high but soothing. He turned his face to an angle where I could see him, Jimin?

He continued to sing, completely unaware of my presence. He was also swaying softly which goes with the tune. I watched him as the song slowly comes to an end and he flutters his eyes shut.

I started to clap, "I didn't know you could sing." I said and I could see him freezing up. He was startled by me.

"O-Oh! I didn't know you were there. Did I wake you up? I'm sorry." He asked me, scratching the back of his head with a guilty smile plastered on his face.

"No, Jimin. I couldn't fall asleep then I heard your voice. You're a great singer." I said and showed him a thumbs up.

"T-Thank you!" He bowed making me giggle. He looks so cute when he's flustered.

He stood straight and our eyes met once again. His dark orbs staring back at my chocolate ones. We just stood there, staring at each other. Both not even bothering to say a word.

I wanted to break the silence so bad that I couldn't stop myself from clearing my throat. "So, is singing your hobby?" I asked him.

He smiled, "No. It's much more than that." He said before staring back at the star-filled sky. "It's my passion. Actually, it's our passion." He said, referring to his friends.

He then looked back at me, a shocked expression on his face. "I-I don't know why I said that. I probably shouldn't have said that." He muttered to himself so I didn't really hear what he was saying.

"H-Have a nice night! Sleep well, Y/N." He said with a smile before returning to his room, locking the glass door.

"That was kinda weird." I thought to myself before also entering my own room and locking the door.

I hopped into my bed and tried my hardest to remember Jimin's lovely voice. And that helped me sleep like a baby.

Jimin's POV

"Argh! Why did I say that?" I whisper-shouted at myself because I was afraid that I might wake Y/N – or even worse Jungkook up. I do not want to be beaten up by that guy ever again.

I shuffled my hands into my raven locks and let out a sigh. "I should keep my distance, not spend time with her and get friendly with her." I said to myself before laying on my bed, making myself comfortable.

"She looked so cute." I smiled, thinking about Y/N. Her cute cheeks and her almond-shaped eyes that disappear every time she smiles.

And I fell asleep, thinking about her.

Your POV

Days went by smoothly. I started to work full-time in the hospital and I have been doing very well. Treating someone every day, doing check-ups on people from time to time, and visiting my patients – my dreams are slowly becoming true. It was quite hectic, being a doctor is no joke. I just finished my 48 hour shift and only got probably 7 hours of sleep.

With a smile and exited the building and saw Taehyung leaning on his convertible. Seeing him made the tiredness go away by a bit, so I smiled and made my way to him. He opened the door for me and I grinned in response.

This became a normal thing for us. I would go to work riding the bus and he would pick me up after my shift is over.

"Do you wanna go somewhere? Pick up some food?" He asked me, his eyes still on the road as he was driving.

"How about some ice cream?" I smiled at him.

He smiled back at me, meeting my eyes for a short time. "Then ice cream it is!" He said in a cheery tone before placing his right hand lightly on my thigh, rubbing circles.

My heart started beating loudly, and my cheeks started burning up. He always does this but why does it affect me so much?

"Calm down, my heart. You don't want to go back to the hospital, don't you?" I thought to myself and tried to keep calm.

He always manages to make my heart go crazy whatever he does. Whether it be just a simple smile or his gentle hugs before leaving my house, I find myself smiling so hard that my jaw would hurt.

"So, how was work today?" He asked me, like he does every single day.

"It was great! One of my patients got discharged today and that made me so happy." I said happily. "But, Yuna is still treating me badly. Like, what did I ever do wrong to her?"

Yuna has been treating me badly since the second day that I worked there. At first, it was just snarky comments about my clothing and the way I style my hair.

"You don't know how to do makeup right."

"Why do you style your hair like that."

"Are those seriously your best clothes? Tch, you look like a loser."

Then she started gossiping about me, spreading rumors around the whole building. And the worst part is that she doesn't only spread those rumors to doctors and nurses, but also to the patients. I only knew that she started spreading rumors about me after one of my patients told me that she called me a 'hoe' and a 'whore'.

Taehyung removed his hand from my thigh and cleared his throat. "Probably because she's jealous of you. Cause she could never, ever be as pretty, talented, and nice as you." He told me with all sincerity and I swear my heart just flipped about a thousand times.

I giggled then looked outside, noticing that the leaves are starting to turn orange and fall down. A gush of wind blew and I saw one of the leaves from a tree falling, slowly. I smiled as it landed on the pile of leaves that was below the tree itself.

"The leaves are starting to fall." I said to myself and looked at the man beside me. "And I think I'm starting to fall too, hard." A smile crept up to my face at I saw the man moving his head to the beat of the song in a cute manner.

The car came to a halt and he looked at me with a smile. "We're here!" He said before getting out of the car, me following him soon after.

We were back at the first ever ice cream shop that we visited. We go here so often to the point that the workers here know us very well.

"Taehyung and Y/N, you're back!" Mr. Im – the owner of the shop – greeted us with a warm smile. "What would it be today? The usual? Or do you want to try today's special?"

"Hmm... I don't know." Taehyung said before looking at me. "How about you?" He asked me before licking his lip.

I know that it's one of his habits but dang he looks so attractive that I feel attacked. "If I am blushing so hard right now, it would be so embarrassing." I thought to myself and placed my hands to my cheeks to confirm my assumption and it was really warm.

"Y/N?" Taehyung called me.

I closed my eyes and breathed out. "H-How about we try the special for a change?" I looked back at him with an awkward smile.

"Okay! Two specials coming right up." Mr. Im said and started preparing our ice cream. "Oh, you two may sit down and I'll just give it to your table."

We nodded and went to the same table where we first ate here. I propped my head on one of my hands as I stared at the outside view. Little kids were happily playing in the piles of orange, yellow, and red leaves, throwing leaves at each other as if having a snowball fight.

There were also couples happily holding hands as they walked. I frowned at the sight.

I then felt a bigger hand on my little one. I was shocked, Kim Taehyung placed his hand on mine and I could feel him grip mine a little bit.

"What with the sad face?" He asked me with a concerned tone. "Do you not like what you just ordered?"

"N-No, it's not that." I explained. I didn't wanna tell him that I was envious of the couples that were being all lovey-dovey outside.

"Then why?"

"I, I, I-" Thankfully, our order came which saved me from the shame that I would feel if I told him the truth.

I looked at our orders. Ice cream of different flavors were placed in a tall glass, topped with some whipped cream, two breadsticks, and a cherry. But why were our orders different?

"Excuse me? Why do we not have the same flavors of ice cream?" I asked Areum who was the one who served the ice cream.

"Oh, didn't Mr. Im tell you?" She asked us and we shook our heads.

She giggled. "Okay, so the flavors of ice cream show some traits of the one that you like. The three different layers are the three traits of the person. First of all, the bottom layer represents the hair of your loved one. For example, Y/N's bottom layer is a nice blueberry cheesecake – meaning her lover has blue hair."

And I froze up. Questions started flooding my mind. "Shit, this is not good. What if he notices? I'm so screwed." I thought.

"Meanwhile, Taehyung here has a nice chocolate base." Areum explained.

"Chocolate? So that means brown, right?" I asked Areum and she nodded.

"Could it be?" I thought and started to play with a piece of my brown hair. I noticed that Taehyung also tensed up.

"The next layer is like the first thing that comes to people's minds when you hear their names. What you have here, Y/N, is a rich avocado ice cream. Green is associated with family love – meaning that your loved one is family-oriented, but it can also mean that they are friend-oriented because he considers his friends as family."

"She is basically describing Taehyung. I hope that he won't notice." I am internally panicking and I want to stop her from explaining but that would be so rude.

"What Taehyung has is a strawberry ice cream with strawberry syrup. That means that his loved one is determined and passionate about something. It can be work, hobby, or even love." She explained.

"That can't be me. There is no way that Taehyung would ever like me." I thought.

"Lastly, the top layer is the color of their eyes. Y/N has a scoop of dark chocolate while Taehyung has a scoop of rocky road – which is basically chocolate but with little marshmallows and nuts that represent the stars or the bright eyes that his lover has." Areum smiled.

"Thank you!" We both bowed our heads and she bowed back before going back to deliver orders.

"W-Wow!" Taehyung said and grabbed his ice cream. He took a spoonful and took a bite, closing his eyes in satisfaction.

"Is it yummy?" I asked him and he nodded like a kid, making me giggle.

I took a bite out of mine and it tasted heavenly. The anxiousness that I felt a while ago was completely gone. The mix was a bit bizarre but they tasted good with each other.

"This taste's so nice!" I told him with a smile on my face.

"I know!" He replied.

"I forgot to ask you about your day." I told him.

He started to tell me how his day went. That they went to Jimin and Jungkook's house at midnight to hangout during the weekend. How he lost to Jungkook again in the videogame that they played in the early morning. How Hoseok came into the living room – running and screaming because of the cockroach that he saw in the bathroom, followed by Jin who was holding his slipper like a weapon. How they got dissed by Yoongi and Jimin because of the noise that they made. And how Namjoon acted like this is all normal.

With a giggle, we both finished our ice creams and exited the shop, saying our goodbyes to the workers and made our way to the car.

After I wore the seat belt, I placed my hand on my side and felt an hand wrapping it. I looked over at Taehyung who was just smiling at me as he started to drive back to our homes.

We listened to music, singing together loudly like there were no cars around us. Everything was just so happy with him. In no time, we arrived at our homes.

I unbuckled my seat belt before looking at him. "I had lots of fun, like always." I told him with a smile.

"Me too." He smiled back and we stayed like that for a few minutes before I snapped back to reality.

"Well then, I guess it's time to say good bye." I said and was about to get out of the car, bur he grabbed my hand tightly.

"Uhm... I want to say something." He started. He let out a shaky breath and stared right into my eyes.

"Go on." I told him in a calm way.

"I-"
