Taehyung and I were leaving the school. He put his arm around me and held me close to him. We were going to my house. My mom said we had to hang out there if we were going to at all. Some days she lets me go out with just him or just Jungkook, but she's working a double today and felt more at ease if I just stayed home. It's also because it's Taehyung specifically though. She says yes when it's Jungkook more often. She calls him the buff one with a baby face.

Taehyung was so polite when he met my mom though. Jungkook still hasn't formally met her. Taehyung only has because came over to do homework and stayed for dinner a week ago. As soon as his dad picked him up she couldn't stop talking about how charming he is and whether I liked him or not. What was most embarrassing was her saying she'd prefer me to still be in a group when out with him though. Said it's because if anyone tried to grab me he couldn't put up a fight. They could just karate chop him and he'd snap like a twig. Those were her exact sassy words too. I guess she's right, he is very lanky. I feel comfortable and cozy with him nonetheless though.

"Guys!" An all too familiar voice called out behind us.

Taehyung took his arm off of me as we both turned around. Jungkook ran straight between us and put his arms on both of our shoulders. His arm raised just the littlest bit higher for Taehyung and his other low for me. They're both just annoyingly tall. I felt like I was the average height back in Busan. Suddenly the average heights like 5'11.

"This is so unbalanced. What are you so short for, Jimin?" He teased. "Aw Just kidding, it's adorable. You're a little mochi" Jungkook's voice was high as he talked down to me like a kid.

"5'8 isn't even short!" I defended.

"5'8 or just barely 5'8 because there's actually a difference, Jimin-ah" He talked informally with me.

I crossed my arms and scrunched up my face. I glanced up and over at him. Glaring straight into his eyes. He still just had his usual toothy smile. He looked pretty smug as he stared back at me.

"Sh-shut up! A-and call me hyung!" I finally exploded.

It wasn't all too serious though. I really do want to be called hyung. I'm definitely exaggerating though.

"But you don't look older, so why should I address you that way, hm?" He went a little further.

"Hey!" I smacked his chest.

Although, he's not wrong. We both have soft features, but between us I'm definitely the more boyish one. I look much younger than seventeen and I hate it. Taehyung looks his age if not slightly older. I'm honestly envious of his charm. With Jungkook, it's odd. He's definitely baby faced too. It's just that some days he looks older. It's unfair. I wish I could just put my hair in a side part and look my age.

"Just kidding, Hyung- or not. It just doesn't roll off the tongue easily. Oh what to do~" He sighed overdramatically.

I let it slide. All three of us were quiet as we walked. Taehyung took this time to pull away from Jungkook's grasp. He walked beside me again. I was now in the middle of them. I didn't leave Jungkook's grasp though. He kept his arm around me.

We approached my house. I pulled out my house key then. It wasn't until we were right next to the house that Jungkook took his arm off of me. Taehyung took this as the chance to get closer to me though. Standing directly behind me and pulling me against him. Back hugs brought in that warm feeling he typically gives off.

"Are you guys hanging out? Have fun, looks like this is where we part ways. I thought my love would walk me the rest of the way. I guess you're a taken man now" Jungkook sighed.

He was obviously talking about Taehyung. It made me smile. He's so weird, but I enjoy that. Taehyung on the other hand jokingly scoffed.

"You sound stupid, but yeah we are. Don't get lost on the way, I guess" He replied.

Jungkook had lazily raised his right arm. He pressed his middle and pointer fingers to the arch of his right brow. He saluted us with a slight bow following behind it. I felt my chest tighten as I watched him turn slowly. He walked slowly too. I took that as a sign that he wanted to hang out too.

"You can also join us too though" I offered suddenly.

Taehyung gave me an odd glance. I simply shot him an apologetic look before pulling out of his hug. I stepped forward towards Jungkook. He turned back around to face us with a smile. He walked back over to us.

"Really? Ok, cool. Looks like we meet again, my love." Jungkook cooed as he caressed Taehyung's cheek.

Taehyung rolled his eyes as he batted the others hand away. Jungkook only made kissy faces as he reached out for the other. Taehyung cupped his face and pushed him back.

"You'll make me lose my lunch if you continue" He spoke nonchalantly.

Jungkook's smile never faded throughout their odd encounter. It was clear that Taehyung tried his best to hide his own. Ultimately he failed. Soon enough both of them broke out into a fit of laughter. I laughed too. It was amusing to watch them interact. I don't think anything could distance the two. They fit together like puzzle pieces.

While they both played like kids, I took this time to unlock my door. Opening it up and stepping inside. Once inside I slipped off my shoes and put on my slippers. I turned to see the guys coming up to the house too. I shut the door behind them. They took off their shoes as well and placed them beside mine.

It remained quiet for a bit too long. Neither of them were messing around anymore. I didn't really know what to talk about. I'm a bit curious about Jungkook's day since I only see him at lunch and in fourth. I have half my schedule with Taehyung, so I already know his day went well. He had a breeze of a day even.

"So Jungkook, how was the rest of your day?" I asked as I made my way to the stairs.

"Good. I hate math. Taehyung never helps me" He complained.

I just wanted to know about his day, but instead they're going to get each other worked up. Normally, they're more playful than this. Today feels almost like they're legitimately just not getting along well, but are pretending they're only joking.

"I told you to start coming to night school with me" Taehyung said.

"That's boring. I'd much rather do nothing at home."

"Then continue to struggle"

I texted my mom on the way up that I was home. All while listening to them bicker without much seriousness. Once at the top I made my way two doors down. The farthest door down was the entrance to my room.

"I don't know why, but I was expecting more pink" Jungkook suddenly commented.

That ended his and Taehyung hopeless conversation. Although his comment was very random. I had a pink blanket. However, that's the result of the infamous red sock. The white blanket had pink splotches all over it, so my mom decided to use fabric dye and make it all pink. That was just about it for pink. Not that I wouldn't like more. It's a very nice color. I just like how clean and put together white looks.

"What? Why?" I still wondered.

"I said I don't know why, didn't I?" He snapped back.

He got me there. I tried not to smile, but I did. There really was no holding back with him. He can act like a complete dork and my heart just melts. I just want him to feel that way for me too.

"Yeah, I guess so. Um- since we're trapped here I don't really know what to do" I stated, changing the topic.

"We can watch the rest of the SNL Korea episode that we didn't finish last night" Taehyung suggested.

I liked that idea. I also found it sweet that he said "we". He didn't watch the rest when he obviously could've. Taehyung's such a good friend. If I wasn't so set on Jungkook, maybe my heart would beat for him. He's so charming and thoughtful. Whoever he ends up with will be a lucky one.

"Ok. There's only like 10 minutes left in it though."

I didn't mind either way. It was a good episode. I also want to include him more since this whole time I've been more focused on Jungkook. He's the one who wanted to hang out with me, I owe him my attention. He doesn't deserve to be tossed aside over a crush.

"We can finish it, then we can pick out a movie to watch afterwards." He suggested

"Ok, that's fine." I smiled.

"Lets go to the convenience store to get snacks first though." Jungkook butted in.

"Jimin can't leave" Taehyung said for me.

"Why not?" He frowned. This time looking over to me for a response.

"Strict mom. Not dealing with her wrath today." I ran my fingers through my hair and sat down on the edge of my bed.

"Understandable. Then either Taehyung or I will go and bring back snacks." He said.

He had a smug look on his face as he glanced over to Taehyung. Taehyung's expression smug as well.

"Kai Bai Bo!" Both instantly chanted.

It's clear that this is their selection method whenever they need to do something. The way they looked at each other beforehand said it all.

Jungkook in the end chose kai and Taehyung chose bo. Kai cuts bo, so Jungkook won. Taehyung is going to the store. He looked over to me with a bit of an annoyed look. I felt guilty for inviting Jungkook to hang out when Taehyung clearly wanted it to just be us. I didn't protest any, so he just made his way to the door.

"Your usual, Jungkook? What about you Jimin?" He questioned.

He pulled out his phone, Most likely to make a checklist in his notes. He glanced up at me after clicking on a few things.

"Just green tea jellies and banana kicks" I shrugged.

I was right. As soon as I said my request, he bagan typing away. He paused for a moment. Eyes looking up at the ceiling while he thought for a moment.

"So Jungkook's usual plus jellies. Ok. Then I'll just buy us a pack of banana milk to share. I guess I'll get myself..." He trailed off as he began to type. "Alright, see you guy in a bit" He sighed just before going out.

"He didn't seem happy." I commented as soon as my room door was shut.

"Not a bit. He'll survive though. Anyways wanna pick out a movie while he's gone?"

I turned my T.V on right after he asked.

"Sure. How about The Great Battle. It has Nam Joo Hyuk in it. He's hot."

The last bit just slipped. Not that I'm all too ashamed that it did. Nam Joo Hyuk really is hot. He's a tower with abs and a cute face. He typically plays dreamy, but humorous characters. In The Great Battle he takes on a different personality type. Still dreamy as ever, but now a soldier who will not hesitate to kill for what he believes in.

"Ok.. You think so? Huh. I don't know. I like flower boys to be honest."

Flower boys are really pretty men. They're feminine looking with a delicate build. I wasn't one. My build was strong. I danced contemporary, but I was not your typical bony and elegant star. I have muscular thighs and a four pack. Sure, I'm short and the most narrow shouldered man in all of Korea, but I'm too bulky still. As for my face, I'd like to hope it was boyish or feminine enough. Except maybe too boyish. I still had my baby fat. My cheeks are actual lumps. Jeon Jungkook likes flower boys and I'm simply not one.

"Oh ok." I tried not to sound obviously sad.

I sat at the top of my bed. Back against the wall. Pillow resting in my lap. I streamed SNL Korea's last episode to my T.V. I tried not to pay all too much attention to Jungkook sitting right beside me. I suddenly felt insecure beside him. I'd never once focused harshly on my appearance, besides maybe my height, but now it's all I can think about. Is this what a crush is supposed to do to you? I hate this feeling.

I didn't mean to shut down, but there was nothing else I felt like saying. Instead, I grabbed my phone and watched dance videos while I waited for Taehyung to come back. Jungkook must have decided he felt like doing the same because without warning he grabbed my phone. He held it at a spot where we both could comfortably watch them. I laid my head on his shoulder then, just like I did to Taehyung yesterday. He tilted his head towards mine. Enough that his cheek wrested on the top of my head.

6 videos later and it was a little over half an hour since Taehyung went out. He busted through the door but as the sixth one was ending. He held the bag of snacks up with a much happier expression than what I saw earlier. It fell quickly once he looked around. Again, I felt bad for inviting Jungkook. If I would have just kept my mouth shut I think Taehyung wouldn't have been so moody. I couldn't help myself in the end. Surely Taehyung will understand once I tell him. Not tonight though. I'll tell him tomorrow. Sometime when we're alone.

He passed over Jungkook's banana kicks, then me my jellies and kicks. Then he passed out the banana milks, even kindly poking the straw into mine for me. After that, he sat down right beside me. Dumping the rest of the items out of the bag onto his lap. He had strawberry jellies, ice cream, and seaweed chips for himself. It was a bit of an odd combo. I wasn't judging any. I find just about everything he does adorable at this point. His face lit up like a child's does on christmas day.

"Jeez Taehyung-ah. Give me a few seaweed chips" Jungkook didn't wait for a yes, he reached over and grabbed them as he was talking.

"My mom said I'm cutest when I'm chubby, so I eat well and happily for her" He smiled as he took his ice cream out of the wrapper.

Taehyung was the definition of lanky. That's really the best word for him. Tall and thin. He was broader than Jungkook oddly enough, but their arm sizes were very different. Taehyung also has a flat stomach surface, all while Jungkook casually carries around an 8 pack everywhere he goes. Also, Taehyung is at least an inch taller than Jungkook. Not that it matters any. Both will still tease my height since I have nothing on either of them.

"If you're chubby then what am I" I wondered out loud.

"You're cute like mochi balls!" He cheered back as he pinched my cheeks.

My lip twitched with a bit of annoyance. I batted his hands away and rolled my eyes. That really wasn't the response I wanted to hear. He called me round right to my face. Then again, I did ask what I was. That reminded me of earlier when Jungkook called me mochi. I wonder if that's what he meant too. I wonder if he thought I was just short and round.

"Just kidding, Jiminie. You are the cutest though! Neither of us are chubby. I can't gain weight easily, but my dad once said I eat like a fat man. That's when my mom responded that she thinks I'm cutest chubby anyways. It was all just a joke" He was quick to explain himself.

"Oh haha" I forced a laugh since I didn't want to seem rude or uptight.

I unpaused the show. At this point they were just wrapping up the final skit before cutting to the outro. Both Jungkook and Taehyung began to eat their snacks. I suddenly had no interest in mine.

I didn't eat one piece.
