“Hey Jimin, go get Jeongkuk. Dinner is almost ready.” Jin said while putting the final preparations for dinner. Jimin nodded and headed towards Jeongkuk’s room. As he was walking down the hallway, he heard hysterical laughter. He smirked to himself, “I wonder what’s so funny?” Jimin asked himself. He opened the door, “Hey guys din-.” Jimin’s words were cut off by the scene in front of him. TaeHyung was on top of his maknae, tickling him and making him laugh. Jimin instantly tensed up and gritted his teeth. He could feel the jealousy rising in the pit of his stomach, he finally had enough. He cleared his throat loudly, trying to get their attention. They stopped and looked over at him, panting and smiling, “Uhm, yeah, so dinner is ready.” Jimin spat in a monotone, he than instantly closed the door and walked back to the dining table. He plopped down onto his chair, he face in a slight pout, “Hey you alright?” Hoseok asked while taking his seat across from Jimin. Jimin looked up at him and then back down at his plate, completing avoiding Hoseok’s question, Hoseok just pursued his lips together and went quiet. TaeHyung and Jeongkuk came to the dinner table, huge smiles plastered on their faces. Dinner couldn’t have gone by any more slowly for Jimin, who was just staring at his plate, pushing the food back and forth with his chopstick. He went unnoticed throughout dinner, which he was grateful for, he wasn’t in the mood to have a conversation with anyone. That is until Namjoon brought up the gift that Jimin got for Jeongkuk. After hearing his name, he immediately snapped back to reality, “So what did you get me hyung?” Jeongkuk asked with a smile. Jimin smiled, immediately forgetting about the incident that he just witnessed, “It’s a surprise.” Jimin pinched Jeongkuk’s cheek. Just seeing Jeongkuk’s face made Jimin’s heart flutter. Jeongkuk pouted and looked at Jimin with his puppy eyes, “Please hyung.” Jeongkuk begged. Jimin put his hand over Jeongkuk’s face, “Alright I’ll give it to you, just stop with that face, it’s too cute.” Jimin said, causing everyone to laugh. Jimin got up and went to his room with a giddy Jeongkuk trailing behind him. Jimin gave Jeongkuk his present, who instantly fell in love with it. Jeongkuk gave Jimin a tight hug, which made Jimin blush and get butterflies in his stomach. Jimin watched the younger boy examine his present closely. Jimin was reluctant to give Jeongkuk his present because not only did he buy it for Jeongkuk as an early birthday present, but he wanted to confess his feelings for Jeongkuk. But that won’t happen anytime soon, especially since Jimin knows that Jeongkuk likes TaeHyung, not him. Jimin was snapped out of his thought by another hug from Jeongkuk, Jimin hugged the maknae back, not wanting to ever let go.

Jeongkuk told Jimin that he was going to go put his present somewhere safe, so Jimin followed Jeongkuk to his room. Jimin sat on the maknae’s bed, immediately remembering what happened there. He gritted his teeth again, he had to know what really happened. “So what were you and TaeHyung doing earlier?” Jimin asked bitterly. “Oh nothing much, we went to go have ddubokki and ice cream.” Jeongkuk said while trying to find the perfect place to put his shoes. “No not that earlier, I mean earlier when I called you guys for dinner.” Jimin snapped, getting a little flustered. Don’t play dumb with me Jeongkuk, he thought to himself. “Oh that! It was nothing.” Jeongkuk said coolly. “Are you sure it was nothing?” Jimin pursued. “Yeah, well I mean it wasn’t nothing, he was just tickling me.” Jeongkuk replied, joining his hyung on his bed. “Oh I see.” Jimin said, now a little upset. So it was what it seemed, he thought to himself before getting up to leave. “Hey Hyung,” Jimin stopped in his tracks and looked over at Jeongkuk, “Do you want to watch a movie with me tonight?” Jeongkuk asked, giving Jimin a sincere smile. “Yeah, sure. I’ll go ask the others if they want to watch too.” Jimin said, putting his hand on the door knob. “No!” Jeongkuk exclaimed, he jumped a little and turned around to look at his maknae again. “I want it to be just you and me. I feel we don’t get to hang out as much anymore.” Jimin froze. Did he just say what I thought he said? Jimin thought to himself. A warm sensation spread over him, he instantly was overcome with joy. He jumped onto Jeongkuk’s bed, wanting to be close to his maknae. The two boys decided on a comedy movie to watch together.

Jeongkuk got his laptop and turned off the lights. He crawled next to his hyung and they both put the covers over their legs and laptop in between them. “Can you see?” Jimin asked Jeongkuk. Jeongkuk shook his head and scooted closer to his hyung until their shoulders were touching each other. Jimin smiled to himself, blushing a bright pink. “Ok hyung, what do you want to watch?” Jeongkuk asked while scrolling through his folder of movies. “Hmm, I don’t know, how about you pick because it was your idea.” Jimin replied while putting his arm around Jeongkuk’s shoulders. Jeongkuk scooted even closer to his hyung, giving butterflies in Jimin’s stomach. “Hm, how about the Dooly movie?” Jeongkuk asked, looking at his hyung, chuckling. “But that’s a kid’s movie.” Jimin complained. “But hyung, he looks just like you.” Jeongkuk teased, Jimin rolled his eyes and chuckled. “Well if he looks like me, then there no point of seeing me twice, right?” Jimin asked. Jeongkuk looked back at his computer screen, “But he makes me happy.” Jeongkuk said with a pout. “What? The cartoon character?” Jimin asked. Jeongkuk looked at his hyung and smiled, “No. Both.” He chuckled. Jimin couldn’t help but smile, “Ok, fine.” Jeongkuk’s face lit up as he pressed the play button. He got himself comfortable, laying his head on Jimin’s chest. Jimin blushed and the butterflies in his stomach multiplied. Since him and Jeongkuk haven’t been able to spend quality time together lately, Jimin was craving this moment, just being alone with Jeongkuk again was something that he had been looking forward to for a long time. The movie started and the theme song started to play. Jeongkuk sang along but replaced “Dooly” with “Jimin hyung”, evoking a delightful respond from his hyung. “You’re so silly maknae.” Jimin giggled. Jeongkuk couldn’t help but giggle too, “Better than being a baby dinosaur.” They both cracked up.

More than half way through the movie, Jimin noticed Jeongkuk dozing off, “Hey Jeongkuk, sleep comfortably.” Jimin whispered while stirring the maknae awake. Jeongkuk, with his eyes half opened, positioned himself more comfortably on his bed. Jimin turned off the computer and got up to leave for his room, “Hyung where are you going?” Jeongkuk groaned sleepily. Jimin stopped and looked over at the half awake maknae, “To my room.” “No hyung, just sleep in my bed tonight.” Jeongkuk insisted while scooting over to give space for Jimin to sleep. Jimin smiled softly and crawled into Jeongkuk’s bed. “Good night maknae.” Jimin said, Jeongkuk just grunted and went back to sleep, his back facing Jimin. Jimin to his side so that he could look at Jeongkuk. He sighed and he watched his maknae. Jimin was about to close his eyes to sleep when Jeongkuk turned to face him, still asleep, he hugged his hyung around the waist and buried his head into Jimin’s chest. Jimin was thrown off guard a bit, he never shows this much skinship to anyone, not even me, he thought to himself. “Jeongkuk ah.” Jimin whispered but it was no use, his maknae was in a deep sleep. Jeongkuk mumbled something but Jimin couldn’t make out what it was. He finally just wrapped his arms around Jeongkuk and closed his eyes with a huge grin on his face. “This is better than last night.” Jimin whispered to himself.
