Smoke and Mirrors

Description

Jimin went out for a night-time walk a few times a week, maybe just to see the man smoking outside. His life was suddenly not so boring, his routine not so strict, and the friendship with his room-mate not so great.

Foreword

My first chaptered fic for BTS or K-Pop in general. My goal was for this to be thought-provoking, more than just a story that relies on romance to drive the plot (although there is nothing wrong with that and can be very well done, I wanted to show myself that I could do more). Maaaaybe a bit of ;) I'm very excited about this and I think it's coming along quite well.

Be expecting: Six or seven chapters, probably a little more than 15k words. 

Main Pairing: YoonMin - Jimin is a dancer and Yoongi plays piano.

Side Pairing:  NamJin - Namjoon lives with Jimin, and Jin is the one he met online.

With appearances by the rest of BTS, of course!

Excerpt: Jimin breathed in. The air in the city tasted ugly, but familiar. And, that night, it tasted of fresh smoke. A pinprick of red light flashed in the blackness, then disappeared. He knew someone else was out there in the dark and chose to ignore it. Maybe he’d listened to Namjoon a little too well. We pass people all day long that we'll never meet. And so Jimin just sat there, thirty-five meters from his apartment, inhaling someone else’s smoke.

Is this really your first chaptered fic? Cuz I'm 100% sure it doesn't feel like it. The pacing was so smooth; not dragging or rushed, just the perfect pacing for a peaceful, heart-warming with bits of drama plot. I couldn't get over how my feelings were so devoted to this fic. I was rooting for them so hard, like, bro shut it! This is a work of fiction!! I don't upvote easily, so *clicks upvote*... Didn't expect NamJin to effect me this much, but, hey, I thought they were the most romantic one of the two. Like, they were fated to be together. Aww, I cried, smiled, felt warm and giggled in this chapter. Though, I feel empty now, cuz its completed. :(
Thank you for sharing this amazing FF that I'm going to re-read right now.
Really, thank you so much! :)

Chapter 7: “I Googled it,” Yoongi sighed.
He couldn't be more honest and blunt. Duh, that is Suga for you!~ :D

Chapter 5: OMG!!!!!! Everything was good until Hobi's sticky note scene... Man, that guy is the best thing that could happen to this fic. Like how he could read YoonMin's feelings and how he sneakily placed that note. So adorable!! :D

Chapter 3: I wish Yoongi could play the piano. He doesn't give off that vibe, but I think he would look elegant playing it. As if he doesn't get more amazing than he already is!!! ;)
Woah! I wanna know about Yoongi. How does he feel 'bout little Jimin?

Chapter 2: I'm so obsessed with Yoongi that him holding a cigarette and shaking his hand with Jimin is right before me. *shakes head wildly*
Anyway, this fic is so interesting.

Chapter 1: Joonie being the smart genius he's.
I think because Jimin knows Joonie has dated only girls, he's now afraid to come out to him. Its hard to just come out like "Hey Ji, I'm a bi, in love with who? A ing person I met online"-
