Taehyung was busy that day Jimin decided to visit him at work.

He was just so ecstatic finally having Lisa; possibly turn this into a serious relationship in the near future. Taehyung couldn't care less since he was pressured by customers asking for ice-cream, but decided to listen in on his best friend's story, anyway.

"I take it the date went well?" Tae smirks as he handed the fifth cone he made at the hour.

"Well, yeah. I wouldn't have been talking about it if it didn't, right?"

Jimin shakes his head; he ends up biting his finger at the thought of how cuter Lisa gets everytime he sees her. Taehyung laughs at his smittened friend.

"Someone's falling in love~" Tae whispers to the blind customer before handing the ordered strawberry over carefully.

"Well, maybe I am." Jimin bites his lower lip, but soon lost his cool when he saw Clara coming over with that smile - that smile he used to love so much when they were dating.

Clara didn't even make eye contact and just simply went over to Tae to order ice-cream. "Hey there," she greets.

"Hey, Clara, right?" Tae jokes. "What flavor?"

"Watermelon popsicle, if you please." Clara blinked while Tae looked for more ice-cream flavors in the back and that's when she realized Jimin was just standing in front of her.

She didn't speak a word; and the two had a long, quiet staring competition. Jimin decided to blink first to avoid hers.

"Oh, Jimin," was all Clara bothered to say; nothing more, nothing less. Just a cold, subtle greeting to the other was all it was.

Jimin nods in response. Once Tae came back with her request, she immediately paid and bid him farewell to leave the two. Tae watches as Clara disappeared from their sight, making him sigh.

"So, uh, you know Clara?"

Jimin didn't even want to mention her name. He just shrugged it off without really answering his question.

"Let's get back to your date." Tae started as he washed the scooper. "What did you two talk about?"

"She told me she had a distant brother. I don't know who he is, but I'm pissed off about. . how he left her like she said." How can anyone even think of leaving their sister unprotected, especially when they know they have a drug addict bastard of a Dad? Jimin's hatred for her brother may seem unreasonable, considering the fact he hasn't even met the guy nor did Lisa put it into details, but it was still a head-turner for a story.

"Sounds deep, man." was all Tae could say as a reply.

After that, Tae didn't ask too much for the in-depth of the date. Told Jimin he needed to stay longer for work and wants to just continue this conversation over SMS.

So, Jimin took off for a drive, instead, to maybe clear his mind off some things.

Hard to believe Lisa was always on the first on his trail of thoughts for the 2 whole-hour drive. He couldn't bear it anymore when he eventually exhausted himself, so he took a turn to drive over to Lisa's dorm.

Pulling out his phone from his pocket, he tapped on the messages and texted Lisa;

jiminie 💕:
hey, you up?

Not a moment longer, she replies.

lisa 💓:
hi! yea, i'm going home
from the mall

jiminie 💕:

i just came there.

lisa 💓:

the bus.

lisa💓:

bumped into each
other, then!

lisa💓:
but wait where are you,
exactly?

jiminie 💕:

your dorm

lisa 💓:
wait what??
hold on

Jimin climbed out of his car when he saw the blonde walking towards him, carrying a shopping bag by her side. She smiled when she saw him when the lights of his car dimmed.

"Hey," Lisa went in for a hug, Jimin pulling her closer by the waist.

"So, uh, what did you do at the mall?" Jimin asked worriedly after getting the shopping bag from her hand.

She shrugged as she lurked for the keys in her pocket. "I just looked for something personal. But what are you doing here this late, mister?" She lightens up when she finally had her key and only then did she get inside.

"May I come in?" Lisa pulls Jimin along with her as they both walked up the stairs towards her room.

"I was just worried about you. Plus I had nowhere else to go, really."

Lisa turned the knob, revealing her room. Jimin placed the bag on her bed and sat there himself. "You rent this dorm by yourself?"

"Yeah. It's kind of a perk when you're a scholar. You get to choose how you live off with the allowance they give you." Lisa went in front of Jimin to face her back on him. She lifted her hair and said, "Can you help me?"

Jimin stands up and slowly unzips her dress, nervously. Once it was done, Lisa went to her bathroom and changed into her shirt and pajamas there.

She came back, sitting beside him.

"So, is that really it?"

"What?"

"You were just worried about me?"

Lisa softly chuckles when she noticed Jimin's pale face suddenly having a taint of the red color.

"I just went to the mall to talk with Tae. We had so much to catch up on." Jimin found himself loving the comfortable bed and actually laid on his back, letting out a soft groan.

"Or maybe you just wanted to. . do something with me." Lisa laid on her stomach, resting her chin on the palm of her hand as she stared at him. She hasn't thought much on what they were labeled as and just liked to go with the flow.

Jimin looked at the blonde and sweeped his hair before he spoke, "I'm not that kind of guy. I mean, I don't even know what we are. Uhm," he rose up to look at her deep in her eyes. "what are we?"

Lisa lied on her back and sighed. "I don't really know. We've only gone out on one date."

"No pressure. I was just asking, is all."

"Let's have a deal, shall we?"

"Okay, what kind of deal?"

Lisa hummed as she thought of the words she ought to say next. "Let's have at least three more dates, then we'll know. Okay?"

"I'd love that. But what do you say, up for our second date?"

Lisa shakes her head, shrugging. "I haven't any money. I'll have to ask my brother for it. I'm sure he wouldn't mind."

He didn't mind leaving you, either.

"Where do you want to go, then?"

"We'll see, next time, okay?"

Jimin nodded in agreement, planting a soft kiss on Lisa's forehead.

The day of the performance came. Jimin has been sweating non-stop backstage.

Jimin has always been a confident boy who believed in his talents, but there are also times like this where he finds himself unable to move at the thought of a hundred people watching his performance for the first time.

"Here, are you nervous?" Jisoo was behind him and was handed a bottle of water.

"Yeah, but-"

"I'm gonna have to ask you to pay that water later. Okay? Great." With that said, Jisoo clapped her hands, gathering each performers, arranging them in order before the show starts.

Jimin had almost worn out himself, drowning in the mineral water.

'You can do this. You practiced for this.' He kept chanting inside his head, hoping for the nervousness to go away.

"I'm sorry, this is backstage. No one is allowed to enter other than-"

"I'm actually a member of the club and I'm just here to help someone, please!"

Jimin turns around -

it was Lisa.

"Hey! W-what are you doing here?"

Lisa pulled him into the tightest hug she could do before she let go while saying, "I just wanted to be the first to wish you good luck out there. I'll be watching you. Remember your promise?"

Jimin exhales in relief. "Yeah, I still remember."

"Hihi," Lisa laughs. "You're gonna be fine. I'm sure of it - without a doubt! I'll be shouting your name until you finish your part." She turns around, only to be forced to exit the backstage. "I have to go."

"Thanks, Lisa."

The blonde immediately ran to her place in the crowd and put her hands together for luck on her soon-to-be-boyfriend's show.

Jimin took really deep breaths, sweeping his fingers through his hair to relax himself.

The music was starting;

it was time.

The audience kept cheering just at the start of the beat. Jimin was shuffling to his place and let the other two come upon their cues.

The music was intense; supposedly make the crowd feel the heat. He was up for that heat; he was giving it his all to move as energetic and sexily as possible.

How could he not?

He was enjoying himself. Lisa was there in the crowd, even though he had only spotted her when the music stopped.

It was a glorious night to showcase his talent to the public for the first time.

And he knew - Lisa had been watching the whole time.
