Taehyung decided to stroll to school that morning and watch Jimin practice. It was a Saturday and they where having practice later that evening so he had nothing better to do. Thankfully, they had resolved their earlier disagreement so there weren't any grudges between them. He whistled some of his song lyrics in his head as he walked past the stores but then stopped in front of a woman selling rice cakes. He thought for a while before deciding to buy the snack for Jimin. He bought it and walked towards the dance studio but he stopped abruptly when he saw Jimin sitting on the stairs in front of the building. He had a sulky expression on his face. Taehyung sat beside him trying to read his expression but Jimin seemed wrapped up in his thoughts.

"Hey... What going on?" Taehyung said waking him up from his trance.

Jimin smiled upon noticing him. "Oh Tae, what are you doing here?"

He sounded very tired.

"Oh... I just came to check up on you since I'm free" he paused. "But why aren't you practicing?"

Jimin brushed his fringe from his face as he let out a sad sigh "They shifted the competition. It's now next month"

Taehyung was surprised. "Wait but why?"

"I don't know! They suddenly shifted the competition. I have trained so long for this. I was so prepared"

"I know it sucks but it will give you more time to train harder" Taehyung said flashing him a small smile which Jimin half returned. Taehyung showed him the rice cake he got for him.

"I got you this. It isn't much but..."

His words were cut off as they saw Jungkook and Taemin getting down from Jungkook's car. Taemin was holding plenty of bags in his hands. It looked like they just went shopping. Jimin's mood immediately turned sour as he watched them laughing and kissing.

"Looks like some people are actually enjoying themselves" He muttered with a sneer at he took a bite of his rice cake. Taehyung watched him quietly before suddenly grabbing his hand

Jimin was taken aback. "Yah...what is it?"

"Do you wanna go somewhere? I know a place"

Jimin arched his eyebrows. "What place? I know everywhere you know"

Taehyung smiled. "Just trust me!"

Jimin finally agreed and let Taehyung take his hand as they left the studio painfully aware of Jungkook's watchful gaze.

Taehyung kept holding his hand as they walked on. Jimin was curious as to where they where going to but he didn't want to ask any questions and spoil the fun. It was quite a long walk with many turns but they soon arrived at the place and Jimin looked around them. It was an abandoned amusement park. Many of the equipments where already rusty and faded but it felt peaceful, beautiful even.

Jimin took in a breath of fresh air.

"Wow, this is amazing. How long have you known about this place?"

"For about a month now!"

Jimin slapped his chest softly "A month! And it didn't even occur to you to show your best friend"

Taehyung grinned. "Guess I was feeling selfish but I think now is the best time to share this place with you"

Jimin looked away from him. He loved this place. It was so serene and he felt like he could just relax and think instead of plotting his next strategy on how to win Jungkook's heart. He sat down on an old rusty swing letting the calm breeze blow through his hair but then froze as he heard the sound of a camera snapping. He turned and saw Taehyung taking pictures of him. He blushed.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

"Taking a picture of you. You looked....well really good!" he stuttered nervously and Jimin noted how stiff he suddenly became. He became instantly quiet and Jimin had a feeling something was wrong but Taehyung went on.

"I've been thinking of participating in an art exchange program at Harvard after we graduate. They are inviting people from all over the world. I guess I will be able to gain greater opportunities for myself. It takes place next year and I think it will be really good for me"

"Wow Tae, that's great!" Jimin exclaimed.

Taehyung's face brightened. "Really?"

"You're going to be great in the future. You should definitely go ahead and do it"

Taehyung stared at him. "What makes you think so?"

"I just do!" Jimin answered looking really serious and Taehyung seemed thoughtful for a moment before he shrugged and smiled openly. His smile faltered and he seemed hesitant about something.

"Jimin, there's something else i want to say to you...."

Jimin looked at him expectantly. "What is it?"

There was silence as Jimin just sat there waiting for him to talk but he couldn't find any words to say from his mouth so he shook his head.

"No... It's nothing"

Jimin gave him a piercing look. "You need to say all you have to say now before it's too late"

Those words shook him to his very core. It bothered him a lot hearing that from Jimin but he shook his head again.

"It's nothing!" he said finally.

Jimin just shrugged. "Whenever you're ready, I'm here to listen!" He said.

Taehyung nodded. They stayed at the amusement park taking pictures of each other and riding some of the nearly condemned machines until it was almost evening and Taehyung had to go practice. Jimin was hungry and he just wanted to eat so they left together but went their separate ways when they reached campus.

Bangtan basket ball team practiced all the time for the upcoming match coming up the following week. As a result, Jimin hardly saw Taehyung but when he had time, he visited him at practice with Hoseok and who also came to see Yoongi. It was difficult when Taemin came along to see Jungkook. Though, they where trying to be discreet about their relationship, everyone knew what was going on behind closed doors and this made Jimin frustrated. He kept trying to find Minho but the guy seemed like such a reserved person and Taehyung didn't want to help him in looking for the guy but he wasn't giving up just yet. He was given a second chance to change his depressing future and he was going to take it. He wasn't going to waste it.

Finally, the game arrived and everyone was gathered at the large auditorium that night. Jimin along with Jin and Hoseok where ready to cheer for their team.

Soon, the team players came out one by one but all Jimin could see was Jungkook! He shouted his lungs off when he was waving to the crowd unaware of the suspicious stares thrown at him by his friends.

The game started and it was a fierce competition between Bangtan and Exo. Exo was leading the game during the first half but at the second half, the tides changed and it became a tie. Jungkook eventually scored at the dying minute giving Bangtan the win. Jimin went wild with happiness joining the others to celebrate. They where all jubilating and as usual, Jungkook was carried shoulders high as he was taken to the locker room.

Jimin went with Hoseok and Jin to meet the other guys at the locker room. Hoseok hugged and kissed Yoongi when they met. Jin jumped into Namjoon's arms while Jimin went to meet Jungkook.

"You where amazing Jungkook!" Jimin said blushing.

"And i have your cheers to thank for it" Jungkook said snickering.

Jimin shifted back a bit confused. "What?"

Jungkook smiled as he came forward. "Don't try to deny it. Taehyung was right there but you kept cheering for me and just me. He saw you"

Jimin gulped. "But i cheered for Taehyung!"

Jungkook nodded his head wearing a winning smile on his face. "Right, you can make yourself believe what you want but if you need to be sure, ask your friends and they'll tell you the truth"

He stopped licking his lips. "I still got you Jimin"

Jimin gasped. He didn't care what Jungkook said. He had to find Taehyung. He must have felt humiliated knowing his 'boyfriend' was cheering for some other guy and not him and everyone knew. He felt really bad at that moment when he searched for him and didn't see him.

He sighed deeply and left the building. When he was outside, he called his line but no response. He even ran all the way to the dorm and only met his roommate Yugyeom but no Taehyung. He was beginning to feel very worried until he remembered the amusement park Taehyung had just taken him to. That was the only likely place he could be so he took off but to his dismay, it started drizzling with rain making Jimin frustrated but he went on till he finally reached the park. He was correct. Taehyung was there sitting down on a worn out bench looking spaced out. The rain was slowly wetting them and Jimin knew they had to get out of there. He stopped when he noticed the bottles of soju on the ground in front of Taehyung. He could already smell the strong scent of alcohol in the air. He quickly sat beside him and wrapped an arm around his shoulder.

"Tae, let's go. We have to go!" He whispered.

The rain suddenly started falling in torrents and soon they where both soaked. Taehyung's hair was matted to his scalp like a helmet. When he looked at Jimin, his heart clenched. He could feel the sorrow in those eyes.

"Leave me alone Jimin" Taehyung muttered

"I'm sorry for what happened earlier Tae. I know i humiliated you but I'm really an idiot!" he shouted desperately over the falling rain. Taehyung just shook his head drunkenly as Jimin finally managed to get a hold of his arm and pull him under a tall tree with wide branches that could conveniently hide them from the rain. There was abrupt silence as Jimin shivered under the cold while Taehyung just stared at him. He felt awkward as the younger suddenly grabbed his arms and forced him to look into his eyes.

"I hate it!" Taehyung muttered under his breath as Jimin just looked on at him confused.

"What are you talking about?"

"I hate how vulnerable you make me feel. I hate that i don't like you smiling at someone else, cheering for someone else"

He stopped and Jimin hung his breath as he noticed Taehyung was looking at his lips. Wait? Is he trying to...

"It hurts me down here Jimin" Taehyung said softly touching his chest "and i don't know why. I don't know when it started but I want you to only see me. To cheer only for me"

"Tae, you're drunk!" Jimin said trying to push him off but his grasp was strong. He kept him back in place.

"I guess I'm drunk but i want to tell you now because i doubt I'll have the courage to do so again"

Jimin had a feeling he knew what he wanted to say and truthfully, he didn't want to hear it. It would every thing really difficult.

"Tae...."

"I like you Jimin"

Jimin froze and Taehyung continued. "Hell, I might even be in love with you"

Jimin said nothing as Taehyung wrapped his arms around his waist pulling him closer so he was melting to his chest. Jimin felt something at that moment, something he couldn't describe just by hearing those words from Taehyung's mouth. The other looked at him softly.

"I have always wanted to do this Jimin. Please let me... "

"Do what?" he stammered but was caught off guard by Taehyung's lips being pressed on his. He wanted to fight him off but it felt good. His lips where soft and as their tongues glided together, he could feel the alcohol mixing with his own. The feeling was amazing as he pressed himself further into Taehyung's arms and let his hands run through the back of Taehyung's wet hair. Silent moans escaped from their mouths as they stood under that tree forgetting the rain and everything else. Jimin didn't know what it was but one thing was for sure he was full of lust. Lust for his best friend! The realization suddenly hit him like thunder bolt and he backed off. His heart beating crazily fast as he looked up at Taehyung who was looking sinfully sexy with his swollen lips and confused eyes.

No! This isn't supposed to happen! Not Taehyung. It would ruin everything, his whole plan. He tried to stop it but his heart was still beating fast. He continued backing away from Taehyung still painfully aware of the kiss. Taehyung reached out to him.

"Jimin! Jiminah!" he whispered in a sad broken voice but Jimin prevented him from coming closer.

"No... Stay away from me" he whispered. He had to leave. He didn't care if he got soaked under the rain or if he catches a terrible cold later. He just had to be away from Taehyung, his best friend who was jeopardizing his mission because he was making him feel something. Something dangerous. Something he hadn't been prepared for so he left him there under the tree and ran.
