Yoongis POV:

I stepped out into the garden and sighed when I saw my neighbour lying on his deckchair in the garden next door in nothing but swimming trunks. I looked at his silhouette: slender, about 1.70 cm, black hair and a tattoo in the rib area. His name is Park Jimin and from what I've found out so far, he's 2 years younger than me. Jimin looked up and when he saw me, he raised his hand and called out, "Good morning, Mr Min." I just sighed and rolled my eyes. I sat down on my garden chair and ate my breakfast. Jimin stepped up to the garden fence and smiled at me. "Mr Min, it's my birthday on Friday and I'm having a few friends over. I hope you don't mind if it gets a bit noisy..." I looked at Jimin and just rolled my eyes.

Jimins POV:

I smiled at Yoongi. "You're welcome to come too." Yoongi raised his eyebrows and just said, "Just don't make the music too loud." I sighed and turned away. "Bores." The doorbell rang. I walked into the house and opened the door. My girlfriend Y/N wrapped her arms around my neck and kissed me in greeting, then we stepped into the garden. Y/N looked at Yoongi and shouted, "Hello Mr Min." Yoongi nodded but there was a storm in his eyes. I picked Y/N up and threw her into the water, laughing. Y/N screamed out. I jumped into the water after her. Y/N snuggled up to me and when our eyes crossed, she bent down to kiss me. I heard a door slam shut. I broke away from Y/N and looked over to the neighbour's garden.

Yoongis POV:

I hurried into the bathroom and stepped into the shower. Breathing heavily, I closed my eyes and tried to relax. Jimin has been my neighbour for 4 years and he was absolutely annoying: parties at the weekend, girls clinging to Jimin's neck... Cold water splashed down my body and I felt my desire disappear again. Yes, I like boys and no one other than my neighbour managed to make me weak. I heaved a sigh and switched off the shower. I looked out of the window and saw Jimin kissing the girl. The girl was digging her fingernails into Jimin's back. I clenched my fists and turned away.

Taes POV:

I stepped into Jimin's garden and saw him arm in arm with a girl in the pool. Jin, Jungkook, Hobi and Namjoon followed me and grinned broadly. "Good morning, Jimin," I grinned. Jimin and Y/N turned towards us. "Hi Tae," Jimin smiled at me. I picked up the car keys. "Get dressed, we need to go shopping for your birthday party." Jimin kissed Y/N gently. "Sorry sweetie, but I have to go." Jimin lifted himself out of the pool. Water dripped from his hair onto his toned chest. Y/N also stepped out of the pool and kissed Jimin goodbye. I rolled my eyes. I don't like Y/N.

Namjoons POV:

We drove to the shopping centre and entered a shop for party supplies. I looked at Jimin. "Jimin, who's all coming to the party?" Jimin smiled. "Jin, Hoseok, Tae, Jungkook, a few girls and you of course." Jimin winked at me and I rolled my eyes. "Aren't you with Y/N?" Jimin just shrugged his shoulders. I spotted Yoongi in the crowd. "Jimin, isn't that your neighbour?" Hoseok scrutinised Yoongi's stature. "He does look very attractive." "If you like men, maybe," Jimin replied. I raised my eyebrows. "You don't have to be into men to find a man attractive." Jimin didn't say anything else. An hour later, we drove home and started decorating the garden for the party.

Jimins POV:

We drove to the nearest shop to buy snacks and drinks. I spotted Yoongi in front of the entrance, where he was laughing with an attractive boy. "Jimin!" shouted Y/N and ran into my arms. I looked up as Y/N was already placing her lips on mine. I returned the kiss. I could feel someone watching us. I broke away and looked around and my eyes found Yoongi's. "Hyung, are you coming to the party?" Yoongi glanced at me and then at Y/N, then turned away and left. My gaze flitted to Y/N. "What did you do?" She snorted. "Never mind. The guy's weird. Why do you want anything to do with him?" Y/N ran her fingers over my tattoo and kissed me.

Hoseoks POV:

I entered the shopping centre and bought a present for Jimin. I stepped out of the shop and bumped into Yoongi. "Hello Yoongi-hyung," I greeted him. Yoongi looked up and frowned, but then he seemed to remember how he knew me. "You're a friend of my neighbour," Yoongi said. I smiled at Yoongi. "You're coming to the party, aren't you? Jimin is really looking forward to it." "I wouldn't exactly call us friends," Yoongi disagreed. I raised my eyebrows. "But?" Yoongi let out a sigh. "Listen, Jimin and I are neighbours, nothing more nothing less." "Oh," I agreed and nodded.

Yoongis POV:

"You know Yoongi, Jimin throws a lot of parties and is a bit hyper, but in reality he's sweet, sexy and loving." I snorted in disbelief. Hoseok glared at me. "So, hyung, what do you want to get Jimin for his birthday?" "Maybe a dog. He always seems to need company," I said dryly. Hoseok looked at me and raised his eyebrows questioningly. "Is that forbidden?" I didn't respond to Hoseok's question. "Do you know where the nearest animal shelter is?" Hoseok just looked at me. "I think Jimin would prefer something more personal." I sighed. I would have liked to give Jimin something more personal, but that wasn't right.

Jins POV:

Namjoon, Jimin, Tae and Jungkook decorated Jimin's house and garden. Jimin stepped into the garden with a box of fairy lights in his hands. I stepped up to Jimin and looked into the box. I beamed when I recognised the fairy lights. Jimin and I started to decorate the garden. Then I stepped into the kitchen and started baking Jimin's favourite cake. Tae snuck up and grabbed a chocolate muffin. "Kim Taehyung!", I shouted and chased Tae through the kitchen into the garden, a wooden spoon in my right hand. I realised I was being watched and looked towards the fence. Yoongi looked over at us, annoyed. I smiled apologetically.

Jungkooks POV:

The time had finally come. It was time for Jimin's birthday party. The fairy lights shone brightly. Music was played and many people danced or jumped into the pool. Jimin danced exuberantly with Y/N. Tae came over to me. "I can't stand her." I caught sight of Yoongi entering the garden. I pulled Tae with me to Yoongi. "Hi Yoongi-hyung, it's good to see you. Jimin will be happy." There was a rustling sound in the box Yoongi was holding. "Is there something alive in there?" I asked sceptically. Yoongi smiled slightly. "Just a little pastime for Jimin."I raised my eyebrows, but didn't ask any further.

Jimins POV:

The party atmosphere was great. Everyone was laughing, drinking and eating the snacks provided. "Come on, let's sit in the garden," suggested a friend. "And we'll give you your presents." Smiling slightly, Yoongi handed me his gift box. I dropped it in surprise when something moved inside. I looked at Yoongi suspiciously. Yoongi just shrugged his shoulders. "I thought you'd like it. You seem to like having company." I opened the parcel when I heard a whimper. I flipped open the cardboard lid and looked inside. "What is it?" Tae asked curiously. I lifted the dog out of the box. It was a golden retriever. "Oh," everyone raved. I gazed at the puppy in love. The little one licked my face and wagged his tail excitedly.

Yoongis POV:

I smiled when I saw that the puppy and Jimin were one heart and one soul. Jimin stepped up to me and hugged me. "Thank you hyung." I inhaled Jimin's scent sharply. I groaned softly. Jimin pulled away from me. I looked nervously at him. Jimin smiled at me. He didn't seem to have noticed anything. "Baby, now open my present," Y/N begged. I stiffened and pushed Jimin away from me. Jimin raised his eyebrows questioningly. I pinched my lips together in disapproval. I saw Jimin's friends exchange glances with each other. Jimin's puppy trotted over to me and lay down on my lap. I smiled and stroked its fur.

Jimins POV:

"Thank you so much, hyung," I thanked him, beaming. Y/N pouted. I looked at her. "Baby, what's wrong?" Y/N glared at Yoongi. "Why are you giving him a dog without discussing this first? The dog has to go, Jimin." I looked at her seriously. "Is that so? I like the little one." Y/N took the dog in her arms. "Yes, he has to go. The dog doesn't fit into our relationship." Everyone looked at me. Y/N handed the dog to Yoongi. "And you can go with the dog." Namjoon, Jin, Tae, Hobi and Jungkook looked at Y/N distastefully. Yoongi's eyes flashed hurt and distaste. Yoongi hugged the puppy to him and stood up. "Come on Lucy, let's go." Y/N smiled with satisfaction. Anger and distaste ran through me. "You're not the one who has to go, Yoongi."

Taes POV:

I smiled at Jimin. "Jimin, you're my boyfriend!" cried Y/N, stunned. Jimin stepped authoritatively towards Y/N. "That's wrong. As of today, I'm your ex-boyfriend." Y/N looked disinclined at Yoongi. Y/N stepped towards Yoongi and before anyone could do anything about it, Y/N lashed out for a slap. "Yoongi!" we shouted in chorus. Jimin's puppy jumped in front of Yoongi, barking. "Hyung, are you okay?" asked Jimin worriedly. Jimin stood in front of Y/N. "I want you to go." Y/N looked at Jimin disdainfully. "He's a boy, Jimin!" Jimin raised his eyebrows. "I can see that, Y/N." Y/N looked at Jimin in disbelief. "You're leaving me for a boy?!"

Jins POV:

Jimin stepped towards Y/N. "No, I'm leaving you because of your obnoxious character. Now go!" Jimin sat down by Yoongi with a smile and stroked the puppy's fur. I looked at Namjoon. "How about some music?" Namjoon stood up. Yoongi looked at Jimin. "You shouldn't have done that. You do love her." I looked at Jimin, who was petting his new puppy. Jimin said firmly: "I haven't liked the way she treats people for a while now. And the way she reacted to you.... I don't need a partner like that." Yoongi swallowed. "I should go. Please excuse me again Jimin and happy birthday." Yoongi jumped up and started to leave. Jimin stopped him and smiled. "Stay here Yoongi, please." 

Namjoons POV:

Jungkook jumped up at the next song and pulled Tae up. "Let's dance." Laughing, we jumped up and danced along. Jimin's new puppy jumped around us and wagged his tail excitedly. Jin and I started dancing to a slow song. Jin pointed to Yoongi and Jimin with his chin. Jimin's puppy nudged Jimin and pushed him towards Yoongi, who looked nervously at Jimin. I smiled. Jin whispered, "Too bad Jimin's straight. The two of them together are really cute. My ship name is Yoonmin." I snorted.

Hoseoks POV:

I gave Yoongi a push. Yoongi stumbled, as did Jimin, whose puppy had nudged him. Yoongi hastily caught Jimin, but Yoongi lost his footing and fell onto the grass. Jimin fell on top of Yoongi. "Yoongi, Jimin!" we exclaimed worriedly. We stopped when we saw Yoongi and Jimin's lips touching. Jimin opened his eyes and pulled away. Yoongi stood up hastily. Yoongi apologised. Jimin looked at him blankly. Yoongi hurriedly disappeared from the party.

Jungkooks POV:

1 month has passed since the party and Jimin and Yoongi's kiss. Jimin acted as if nothing had happened. Jimin has a new girlfriend. I sat in the garden with the others. Jimin's puppy, Lucy, stepped up to the fence and started barking. "Lucy, what's wrong?" asked Jimin. Tae, Jimin and I stepped up to the fence. Yoongi was in the garden doing a work-out, without a T-shirt. I looked at Jimin. He swallowed hard as his eyes slid down Yoongi's sweaty body. "Jimin, babe," came from behind us. We turned round. A young woman stepped up to Jimin, put her arms around his neck and kissed him. Jimin picked her up and jumped into the pool with her. Jimin began to kiss the young woman.

Yoongis POV:

I was exercising in the garden until I heard Lucy barking. I stepped up to the fence and looked into Jimin's garden. Lucy ran towards him wagging her tail excitedly when she saw me. My eyes caught Jimin standing in the pool with a woman in his arms, kissing her. Lucy barked to get my attention. I leant down and stroked Lucy. Jimin stepped towards me. "Hello neighbour." I pinched my lips together disapprovingly. "Yoongi, we're having a film night tonight. Would you like to join us?" I saw Tae and Jungkook rearranging the garden. I nodded. "I'd love to." That evening, I stepped into Jimin's garden. The boys greeted me with smiles. Jimin ran into my arms, laughing. My heart began to race.

Jimins POV:

My hands felt Yoongi's well-toned back. Yoongi's fingers lightly pushed up my T-shirt. I opened my eyes wide. Yoongi stroked my back. I got goose bumps. If I said that Yoongi's fingers on my back left me cold, I'd be lying. "Come on, let's lie down in the beach shell," Yoongi said, taking my hand. "Jimin, your back is red. Here's some sun cream," said Jin. I looked nervously at Yoongi, who smiled at me. "Do you need help?" I nodded. "That would be great." Yoongi took the sun cream and looked at me promptly. I lay down on my stomach. I realised I was holding my breath tensely. Yoongi began to apply cream on my back.

Yoongis POV:

I lay down next to Jimin and looked up at the stars. Namjoon started to play the film. My heart began to race when Jimin put his head on my shoulders. During the film, Jimin put one leg over my hips and snuggled up to me. I let out a sigh. Jimin looked up. "Are you okay?" I nodded. Jimin watched the film and then said, "Y/N called me and apologised for how she reacted to Lucy and you." I pressed my lips together. "Did you tell her you have a new girlfriend?" My hands balled into fists. Jimin giggled. "No, I told her I still owned my dog." Jimin looked up at me with wide eyes. "And I told her I like you as my neighbour." I slipped away from Jimin.

Jins POV:

I stood up. "I'll prepare some new snacks." Yoongi moved and said, "I'll be happy to help you." Jimin looked up. "Hyung, did I do something to you?" Yoongi looked at Jimin seriously. "No, don't worry about it. Come Lucy." The golden retriever followed us, tail wagging.

Jimins POV:

Why is Yoongi behaving so strangely? Have I done something to him? I got up and went into the kitchen. Jin and Yoongi were laughing and fooling around. I clenched my fists and my heart tightened. Hoseok stepped up to me and looked at Jin and Yoongi. I turned away and hurried to my room. Shortly afterwards, there was a knock at the door. Yoongi entered. "Jimin? What's going on? Everyone's waiting for you." I looked out of the window. "Yoongi, what have I done to you?" I caught sight of Yoongi's reflection in the window glass. Yoongi laughed softly. I got goose bumps. I had never found laughter so beautiful. Yoongi turned towards me. "You didn't do anything, Jimin." I felt Yoongi's gaze pierce me. "But..."

Yoongis POV:

"Yoongi, please talk to me. I like you. I don't want to lose you," Jimin begged me. I smiled. "Don't worry, I'll stay next door to you for now." I was about to leave when I heard a sniffle. I whirled around, worried. "Jimin?" Jimin looked up at me, crying. "Min Yoongi, talk to me already. Why are you being so cold to me?" I stepped towards Jimin and wiped away his tears with my thumbs. "You wouldn't understand, Jimin. Let's go to the others."

Taes POV:

Yoongi and Jimin joined us. Jungkook looked at us. "Anyone up for truth or dare?" I saw that Jimin and Yoongi were ignoring each other. Lucy cuddled up to Jimin, who scratched her behind the ears. "Lucy, come here!" commanded Yoongi in a low voice. Jimin trembled at the sound of Yoongi's deep voice. I bent down to Jungkook's ear. "We need to get these two together." Jungkook grinned. "How good that we're playing truth or dare now." We sat down in a circle and placed a bottle in the centre. Lucy came towards us wagging her tail excitedly. Jimin scratched her lovingly behind the ears.

Jungkooks POV:

I turned the bottle in a circle. The lid pointed at Jimin. "Truth or dare?" Tae asked him. Jimin raised his head. "Dare." "Okay, Jimin, then kiss the most attractive boy in this room." Jimin raised his eyebrows. I grinned challengingly. Yoongi clenched his hands into fists. "Tae, I'm not into boys..." said Jimin weakly. "Just do it," Tae demanded. Jimin took a deep breath and stood up. Jimin sat down on Yoongi's lap. Yoongi looked up at Jimin with his mouth slightly open.

Jimins POV:

I had never been this close to a man before. I looked closely at Yoongi. "I've never kissed a man before," I admitted quietly. Namjoon looked at me. "Jimin, it's just like when you kiss a girl." Yoongi pushed me away. "Jimin doesn't want that. So you shouldn't force him to." "It's just a kiss," Hobi said cheerfully. I looked at Yoongi nervously. Yoongi looked at Tae. "You should give him a new task." I raised my head. "You think I'm too chicken to kiss you?" Yoongi looked at me seriously. "No, but you're straight." I opened my mouth to reply, but Yoongi just sighed, "Let's get this over with." Yoongi's arm wrapped around my hips while he lifted my chin with his other hand.

Yoongis POV:

I put my mouth on Jimin's. I heard Jimin let out a sharp gasp. I hurriedly pulled away from him. Jimin's eyes flashed with hurt. I looked at Jimin. "I'm sorry it was so awkward for you." I cleared my throat. "It's late. I should be going. Thank you for inviting me." I stood up, cuddled Lucy and knelt down in front of her. "You're staying with your new master, Lucy." I stood up and was about to open the door when Jimin held me back by the wrists. "Yoongi, is everything okay?" I looked at Jimin sadly. "I'm sorry," I said quietly and left.
