Chapter Twenty One

Third Person's POV



Jimin is walking towards the coffee shop that was in front of their school carrying the gift from Seokjin. He had texted Taehyung about it and the latter replied back asking Jimin to wait for him inside the said coffee shop.



Jimin sat down placing the gift on the empty chair just beside him and pull out his phone before texting the other male asking where he is. Jimin waited for his reply but he got nothing in response. The smaller male locked his phone instead and stares outside the glass wall, placing his elbow on the table while resting his cheek on his palm, eyes boring.



Jimin flinches and felt his heart jump out when Taehyung places the tray of coffee and pastries on the table. Jimin looked up and spare him a glance, glaring.



"Hey," Jungkook greeted eyes not on the smaller male, Jimin felt his heart skip a beat eyes widening in surprise. Jungkook sat down across from him and tore his gaze from the coffee and stare at Jimin instead. The smaller male blinked his eyes rapidly before awkwardly bow his head a little acknowledging the latter's presence.



"Taehyung had asked me to meet him here." Jungkook reason out, of course it's Taehyung again the younger thought. Jimin's phone suddenly vibrates, he gave the taller male an apologetic smile before diverting his attention to his phone and unlocks it.



From: Tae

"You're welcome!"



Jimin's lips twitches upward forming into an amused smile and shake his head, Jungkook's face hardened at the sight, he gazes down and stir his coffee instead.




"Your coffee is getting cold." He reminds him. Jimin almost drop his phone at Jungkook's remarks. He places his phone without replying the other male and grabs the cup without so much thought, Jimin winces as soon as it touches his skin.




"It has a handle for a reason, Jimin." Jungkook pointed out, eyes still on his coffee. Jimin bit his lower lip and places his hand around the handle of his cup.



"R-right, I'm spacing out, sorry." Jimin nervously replied looking at the other male face contorted with uneasiness, Jungkook didn't utter a single word after that.



Jimin brought the cup to his lips and smiles at the smell it was his favorite coffee, Jimin's heart softens and secretly glanced at the other male, he do really know me well.



As soon as Jimin tore his gaze from the taller male, Jungkook shifted his gaze directly at Jimin's spot and can't help but to smile while looking at the smaller male's amused expression. Jimin felt the other male staring at him and he quickly tilted his head to meet his gaze which made them locked eyes for a moment causing Jungkook's smile to fade slowly.



"Why are you meeting Taehyung, by the way?" Jungkook asked him voice gentle, eyes looking at the smaller male warmly.



"Oh, I..." Jimin trailed off, Jungkook couldn't help but to flashe a small smile encouraging him to continue knowing that the younger is starting to get nervous around him.



Jimin finds himself gulping audibly. Jungkook is smiling. He's smiling at him right now and didn't hold back. The thing that he thought Jungkook would never do to Jimin. It was so satisfying to see him smiling like that.



Jimin bit his lower lip before tearing his gaze away from him and grabbed the paper bag beside him, he slowly hand it to Jungkook without looking at him. He's conscious; he doesn't want Jungkook to think that he's checking him out or something.



"It's from Seokjin. He asked me to give those. I was about to give that to Tae but you showed up instead of him." Jimin muttered. Jungkook only hummed in response, Jimin slowly gazes up at him and shyly smiled at Jungkook.



"He gave me one too." He blurted out excitedly, Jimin was taken aback. He's not supposed to talk so casually. Jimin is acting as if they are close and Jungkook might not like that he was about to take back what he said when Jungkook spoke.



"Of course he would give you." Jungkook says tone amused, Jimin felt his heart flutters he looked down, grab his mug and sips his coffee trying to hide his smile, "A gift fairy like you deserved one." Jimin frowned and looked up at Jungkook again.



A gift fairy like me? So I also do that in the past? Well, I love giving other's gifts, I didn't know it was a habit of mine even before.



Jungkook look like he was caught off guard by his own words and purposely shifted his gaze and stared down at his coffee.



Silence fell between the two until...



"I'll go ahead." Jungkook announces, Jimin looks at him making an eye contact shortly and nods along half-heartedly before placing the cup of his coffee on the table. Jungkook stood up and Jimin immediately pretends to text someone in his phone trying to hide his disappointment.



"Unlock your phone first." Jimin felt his cheeks heat up. He looked up at Jungkook only to find him staring down at him with amused smirk in his lips and left.



After the other male left, Jimin pressed his eyes shut.



"Jimin, what were you thinking? Gosh." He asked himself as he felt himself drowning in embarrassment.



"Too happy?" Taehyung snapped. Jimin looked up cheeks still red. Taehyung scanned the table before raising a brow.



"Jungkook bought you coffee," Taehyung points out grabbing the cup of coffee which he assumed from Jungkook and takes a sip from it, "Oh, your relationship is improving." He teases and wiggles his eyebrows, Jimin's eyes lit up and nodded excitedly.



"Well we talked last night and he agreed to be my friend." Taehyung spit out his drinks from his mouth, Jimin's face scrunched up. Taehyung looked at Jimin expression bewildered.



"You friendzone my bestfriend?" He asked exasperatedly eyes widening in complete shock, Jimin knitted his brows together.



"What?"



"But you have a point there though, you need to know each other and get along with each other since you don't remember him and I'm not gonna argue with that." Taehyung explains which made Jimin's frown deepened when he realizes what actually Taehyung were trying to say.




"I may be attracted to him but it doesn't necessarily mean I'm in love with him, Tae." Taehyung's expression turned into confusion, he pulled out the chair and sat down mouth parted staring at the smaller male curiously.



"Attracted?" He asked, "Hmm," Jimin replied nodding his head.




"Attracted mainly because he's part of me, part of my past. That's why I feel different when I'm with him." A faint smile spread across Jimin's lips, "Being attracted to certain someone and being in love is two different things." Jimin says convincing the other male.



Well damn? Jimin has a fucking point. Does it mean it was only Jungkook alone that was still in love with him but not Jimin? I'm ruined. I'm questioning my life decisions now. What if I gave Jungkook a false hope?



He will fucking kill me.



"Tae, you okay?" Jimin snapped at him.




"No, I'm not. I'm stress, you guys stress me a lot." He complained. Taehyung places the cup on the table with a loud thud and check out Jimin's.



"Oh, caramel macchiato!" He was about to drink some when Jimin prevents him from grabbing his cup quickly and glared at the taller male.



"It's mine, get your own." He snarled.



"Now you're getting possessive over a damn coffee he bought for you." Taehyung deadpanned, "Are you sure you're not in love? Maybe you already fell but didn't realize it, you know?" He asks.



"Nope." Jimin says stressing out the word.



"Fine," Taehyung mocked, "Don't fucking ran to me crying and saying you love Jungkook." Taehyung says while crossing his arms over his chest challenging Jimin.



"Will you stop now?" Jimin asked, "Stop from what?" The other asked him back confused.



"From getting us back together." Jimin answered.



"Even if I don't do that, you and Jungkook are bound to be together." Taehyung joked while making his index fingers meet together pulling out a pervert face, Jimin laughs eyes forming into a moon shape.



"You're so funny, I think that's the funny thing I heard this day."



"Wait," Taehyung tells him and Jimin raised up an eyebrow, "I think I already heard that somewhere before." Jimin shook his head expression amused.



"Nah, you're just weird."
