Chapter Fourteen
Third Person's POV
Today is Sunday and Jimin is lying down on his bed while staring blankly at the ceiling, he rolled on his stomach and hide his face on his pillow.
He is smiling, It's been a whole week since Jimin accepted his friendship yet Jungkook still treat him the same way, thoughtful, careful and take good care of him. It was really unnecessary because for the reason he's a grown man but still Jungkook does it anyway.
A soft knock could be heard across the room and Jimin turned to look at the door.
"Jimin-ah! Come out now and let's eat!"
Jimin climbed off the bed immediately and walk outside. His Hyung already in the dining table, Jimin moved closer.
"Good morning, Jimin-ah!" Seokjin greets his brother with his cheerful tone, Jimin smiled.
"Good morning, Hyung." Jimin responded and his Hyung's reaction crack him up.
"Ah, why?" Jimin asked him even though Jimin knew the answer for that, Seokjin only stared the younger with wide eyes and mouth parted.
"No, nothing, go ahead and sit." Jimin sat down and when he felt his Hyung is still staring at him, Jimin lifted his head and their eyes met. Seokjin was the first one to look away. This is the second time Jimin acted like this around Seokjin, its very unusual and suspicious.
Jimin placed his hand over his stomach, he's full. He glances over his Hyung and offers to help.
"I'll wash the dishes, Hyung." Seokjin worriedly look at the smaller and moved forward. Seokjin touch Jimin's forehead expression puzzled.
"What are you doing?" Jimin asked him giggling because he finds it funny.
"Jimin-ah, no offence but did you get possessed?" Jimin furrowed his brows.
"What is this? What the hell is happening to you? Am I dreaming?" Jimin only gave him a strange look before cracking a small and genuine smile, Jimin pushes his older brother lightly and walk past him to wash the dishes.
After washing it, Jimin went to his room but stopped midway when Seokjin blocked his way, Jimin looked at him confused.
"Jimin-ah, do you wanna go out with Hyung?" Jimin raises his brow, "Let's have a date, brotherly date, I miss you." Jimin pressed his lips together and only stare at his Hyung, thinking if he has something else to do, he's certain there is, of course school works but this is the first time Seokjin invited him and Jimin wanted to accept his offer.
"Pretty please?"
"Okay."
Seokjin jumped in happiness and the younger sibling only stared at him with strange look.

"Hyung stop texting what if we get into accident?" Jimin spat but tone careful, Seokjin set aside his phone. "I'm sorry little one, your friend was asking I have to reply." He told the younger.
"Friend?"
"Yeah, your friend, Taehyung." Jimin look outside the window and smiled, more like nuisance he thought.
"I told him where we are heading." Jimin faces Seokjin immediately staring at the latter with shock expression.
"Why?" Jimin asked him, his tone came out harsh, Jimin cleared out his throat awkwardly, "I'm sorry, Hyung." Jimin apologizes, Seokjin's lips twitches upward.
"Why did you tell him? I mean, what if he follow us?" Jimin almost whisper the last part and he heard his Hyung chuckle.
"That's the point, Jimin-ah." Seokjin said throwing Jimin a quick glance before facing the road, "I want him to follow us." Jimin fell silent, it means Seokjin likes him too.
"You're silent, why is that?" Seokjin suddenly asked.
"You like him too." Jimin pointed out.
"Yeah," Seokjin simply said, "I like him that's why I agreed to have a date with him, you know me, I don't agree to a date that easily unless I'm interested." He added.
"Why? Do you have problem with him, little one?" Seokjin asked tone laced with curiosity.
It's not because Jimin not like Taehyung for his brother, Jimin is worried, what if Taehyung showed up and hangout with them, what if he finds out Jimin was lying about his condition?
"I thought you're friends with him, why do I feel like you don't want him for me?"
Taehyung can't find that out, not him, especially Jungkook.
"Unless you know something bad about him that I don't." Jimin knitted his brows confuse written all over his face, he didn't catch up what his Hyung had said.
"Spill the tea." Seokjin added short after.
"Nothing, Hyung." Jimin answered and Seokjin laugh loudly.
"I'm just kidding Jimin-ah, I know you want him for me, you wouldn't have given my number if you don't, am I right?" Jimin didn't answer and choose to stay silent.
If only he knew but Jimin don't want to tell Seokjin the whole story about how Taehyung got his number, Jimin don't want to talk bad about Taehyung to his older brother, Taehyung is not that bad as what he think he is. There's only one person left that he dislike, Namjoon.
"Let's go inside."
Seokjin said, they are inside an arcade, Jimin follows him with boring expression. The first thing they played was DDR (Dance Dance Revolution). Jimin is confident with his dancing but this machine doesn't need that, despite of his fast footwork he finds it hard to play along the game.
"I'm tired!" Seokjin shouted, he was loud throughout the game while Jimin still focus on his game, he want to win this game.
Jimin glances at his right side, observing his Hyung. Seokjin was doing it with his whole heart, surpassing Jimin's competitiveness. Jimin look at the screen to check his score and stop immediately and pointed out the screen.
"Oh!" Jimin shouted, "Wow!" The game ended and Seokjin scored higher. They both step down and Seokjin bend placing both of his hands above his knees, breathing heavily.
"I won!" Seokjin says in between his heavy breaths, Jimin ignored that.
"Let's try basketball." Jimin requested. Jimin wanted to beat Seokjin in the next game. Seokjin agreed and they move onto another game.
Ready set go...
Jimin is at the verge of throwing the ball when someone spoke from behind that made his blood runs cold.
"Having fun are we?" It's Taehyung, Jimin pressed his eyes shut. This is what Jimin was talking about, Jimin look at his Hyung in displease but Seokjin only wink at him before they turned to face Taehyung.
Maybe Jimin's eyes are fooling him because Taehyung was not alone there's Jungkook too. Jimin clenched his jaw, he shouldn't have agreed to this. Jimin is in a big trouble, he need a way out.
Jungkook is staring right at him, he offers the smaller and Seokjin a smile before gazing back at Jimin and waves his hand at the smaller. Jimin can't force himself to smile out of fear.
"Hi, Seokjin-hyung." Taehyung greeted with his toothy grin, Jimin look over his brother and Seokjin is not even hiding it; he's totally obvious.
"Hi." Seokjin says in return.
Jimin rolled his eyes before glancing back at Jungkook, the dark haired male offer him an apologetic smile and for what? Jimin asks himself.
"Can we join you?" Taehyung asked and Seokjin happily agreed.
"Let's divide our team into two, Seokjin you're mine." Taehyung blurts out and Seokjin got flustered, he slowly turn to look at Jimin with a knowing stare, ears reddening before facing Taehyung again.
Taehyung moved forward, wrapping his hand around my Seokjin's wrist before pulling him to his side with a strong force that made Seokjin hug Taehyung, Jimin scoff and looks away annoyed.
Jimin almost let out a sound when Jungkook pulled him by his wrist as well, making Jimin stand beside him. Jungkook smiled at him in which Jimin didn't return.
"It's okay." Jungkook said. Jimin narrowed his brows, what was that for, again? That was so randomㅡ Jimin silently thought.
"Let's start, Jungkook come out!"
Taehyung voice out, challenging Jungkook. The latter only laugh at him because of Taehyung's competitive face. Jimin move backward and Seokjin follows, the older held Jimin's arm and leans in to Jimin's ear.
"That Jungkook guy is good looking." Jimin's face darken and glared at Seokjin, he softly whisper, "So?" There's annoyance in his voice and the older stare back at Jimin dumbfounded.
"I'm just saying?" Seokjin said to him, Jimin think it was unnecessary to say that, it only make him feel irritated.
"Are you jealous, Jimin?" Jimin's eyes widened and Seokjin perceive the younger wasn't having it. Trash is coming out from his mouth, Jimin thinks bitterly.
"Fine, sorry, I was joking." Seokjin said in defenseㅡ psh that was a joke? it's not funny. Jimin divert his attention back to the two, they were about to start.
Ready... Set... Go...
"Go, Taehyung!" Seokjin cheered for the other male before nudging Jimin's arm.
"Go cheer Jungkook!" Seokjin encourages and Jimin rolled his eyes before he open his mouth to shout but closes quickly when he remember he can't do that.
"Oh, look! Taehyung is heading!" Seokjin shouted annoyingly, Jimin check Jungkook's score and he has 198 points while Taehyung has 201.
"You lost!" Seokjin says with a playful tone and Jimin doesn't mind, he is not in the mood to compete with them, he needs a way out before something happens.
"I won the first round!" Taehyung repeats.
Jungkook walk up towards Jimin and offers the smaller a smile, "We lost." Jimin forces himself and finally smile, Jungkook pat his shoulder. "Goodluck." He told the shorter male.
Ready... Set... Go...
"Fighting, Jimin-hyung!"
"You can do it, Seokjin-hyung!"
Jimin throws the ball and hit the side of the ring instead, he pushes his bottom lip out before glancing over his brother. Seokjin is giving his all, his movements are crazy, it was as if his life was depend on it, what's the point of trying, Jimin will lose anyway.
Jimin heard them laughing behind his back.
"Ah, look at him, he's pouting, he's obviously annoyed." Taehyung said.
"It's okay, Jimin-hyung," Jungkook says in between his laugh, "Just try to win the game even when its impossible." Jimin smiled but as soon as he heard his Hyung's giggles, his smile drop.
"Jungkook is cute." Seokjin compliments him again and Jimin is piss, he hisses and faces the ring and ignore his brother.
Jimin throws every ball rapidly until one of the ball bounces back and hit his face, Jimin almost let out a sound pain and covered his face.
"Hey, let me see."
Jimin heard Jungkook said, Jungkook held Jimin's wrists and pulled it down, Jungkook check on him as Jimin reveal his face. Jimin can't help but to stare at Jungkook in daze as Jungkook worriedly examine his face, suddenly Jimin can no longer point out where was the pain he felt earlier.
"Does it hurt?" Jungkook asked him tone low and carefully tap Jimin's small nose, Jimin closes his eyes because it hurts.
"We won! We won!" Taehyung shouted that made the two pull away from each other and look at the other two instead, they are hugging each other while jumping childishly.
Seokjin pulled away, move towards Jimin and worriedly look at his younger brother.
"Little one, you okay? Do you want to leave? You're silent since the game started." Jimin's heart is thumping loudly, he is staring at his brother with pleading eyes, silently asking him to shut up but then Taehyung spoke up.
"Don't make us laugh Seokjin-hyung, your brother is mute."
