「so hard, we can't」
"Joon Hyung, it's your time to shine!" Jungkook hollers as he ran inside the tattoo parlor, Namjoon raises as brow as he continued printing out the designs they've made to mount up on the wall "What do you mean?" Namjoon questions while Jungkook just cups his face "About Jimin," he pants out, breathing shaggy because he had ran from his boyfriend's café all the way back to his Hyung
"He's about to get off work and you told me that Yoongi is still sick which means he's not going to be around, so it's your time!" Namjoon can feel the tips of his ears burning up at Jungkook's encouragement "Take him to the movies, or to dinner. Sweep him off his feet Hyung!" Jungkook pushes, taking his hands away from Namjoon's face
"I don't know-" His Dongsaeng makes him cut off his words "I'll handle the shop with Lisa and Jackson, please go Hyung, you'll regret it if you don't take the chance." Jungkook was right, however another thought crosses his mind
"Kook, I don't want to be a home wrecker." And that's when Jungkook slaps the back of his dead, causing Jackson to gasp as he takes away the printed photos "Do you want him or not!" Jungkook cheers "Focus! Do you want to be with him or not?" Namjoon was at a loss for words "You're not going to be a homewrecker, they're not even married," he softens his tone as he gestures towards Lisa to retrieve Namjoon's jacket
"You're just going to show him how different it is when he's not with Yoongi, show him what he's missing out on." Lisa helps Namjoon put on his jacket "You can do this Hyung, sweep him off his feet." Jungkook pats his shoulders making the Alpha puff out his chest confidently like a bird
"Okay, I can do this, Lisa, Jackson, I trust both of you two until the place closes." The two nods while Jungkook lets out a whine in the background as his Hyung didn't out him in-charge.
Namjoon walks across the street with his hands inside the pockets of his jacket, through the glass he could see Jimin talking to Seokjin, it had been two days since he stumbled upon the two with Jimin crying in his Hyung's chest. He knocked on the locked glass door causing them to turn their heads but nonetheless they smiled at the alpha while Namjoon waves and Jimin opens the door for him.
"We're closed Joonie." Jimin says, Namjoon had grown to love the nickname the younger had given to him "I know but I wanted to look at flowers for some inspiration and perhaps get one for someone." He trails off as he eyes the variety of colors that surrounded the store
"Anything specific?" Jimin asks leading him to the fresh ones that had just come in "Give me something that can mean beauty and a single one can do." Jimin nodded at his request and he approaches the Amaryllis and cut the stem and handing it to Namjoon whose fingers softly grazed the red and white petals.
"From what I've read, this flower symbolizes splendid beauty, worth beyond beauty." Jimin adds, putting away his garden sears and wiping his hands with his handkerchief "How much for this?" Namjoon looks for his wallet but Jimin stops him "No charge Hyung because I don't wanna open the register again."
Namjoon left the warmth of the store, he had contemplated a bit as he holds the single flower in his hand, he wanted to go back in and just ask Jimin out right away but his was nervous and he sat on the bench just in front of the store, twirling the flower in his hands.
"Hyung, all set?" Jimin asks Seokjin as he walks out the ajar door "Yes Jimin, let's go, I'm getting hungry." Seokjin rubs his tummy after putting on his jean jacket.
"Jimin-ah!" the omega jumps as he didn't really notice that Namjoon was still in close proximity to the store with the flower held so delicately in his big hands
"Joon Hyung, I didn't see you there," he greets and approaches him while Seokjin was locking up
"Do you have any plans tonight?" Namjoon asks quickly before his nervousness got the best of him "I'm just gonna head out to dinner with Seokjin and his fiancé." Jimin answers unknown to him that Seokjin had the biggest smile as he watched the pair's interaction
"Ah, I wanted to ask if I can take you out to dinner." Namjoon sees how Jimin's eyes went wide but before he can answer Seokjin cuts in "That'd be great Namjoon! How about you come with us, it'll be like a double date." Seokjin announces and Jimin felt his stomach flip
"Before that, I wanna give this to you, as you said it means beauty and well you're beautiful." Namjoon takes Jimin's hand and makes him wrap his fingers on the stem, it was a fairly cute moment until Seokjin opens his mouth "Namjoon, did you know this is the first time Jimin receives flowers!"
Seokjin and Hoseok sat across Jimin and Namjoon, they ordered a lot of meat because Jimin disliked seafood despite Seokjin's craving for it "You are probably the only person I know who hates seafood." Namjoon said, picking up a piece of cooked pork from the grill in the middle of the table
"You told me you don't eat seafood too!" Jimin whines while Namjoon blew on the hot meat "Enough, open." Namjoon guides the pork into his mouth and Jimin opened, popping the meat inside
"I just don't like it Hyung." He says with a mouthful "And I don't eat it because I like sea creatures but not because I just dislike it." Hoseok coos at the banter happening in front of his eyes "He also doesn't like mangoes!"
"You look good together to be honest." Hoseok said with a goofy smile as they finished their meals "Hyung, you know I'm with Yoongi." Seokjin rolls his eyes "Don't mind him Joon, he's a bit conflicted as of now." Namjoon nods, understanding the situation.
Throughout the night, Jimin just felt happiness, he is happy that he gets to spend a night with his friends, he was so caught up with them that he hadn't noticed the time ticking and he surely forgot what can happen if he comes home late.
✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:* *:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧
"I had a nice time Joonie." Jimin says as they stopped in front of their apartment building "Me too Jimin, you guys are fun to be around."
Namjoon persisted that he would accompany him home considering how late it was and he wanted to get to know him better, he was very stubborn and it resulted to Namjoon carrying him over his shoulder until the younger's protests dies down, wrapping his jacket around him as well when he told him he felt cold.
Jimin loved Namjoon's scent, it was a mix of mint and coffee, he even go so far to bring up the sleeve of the jacket to his nose just to inhale more of his scent.
"You gonna be okay?" Namjoon asks while Jimin fishes for his keys "I will be, thank you for tonight, Namjoon." Jimin shrugs the jacket off but Namjoon stops him "Keep it, it looks better on you, makes you look cute and small." Namjoon says, instinctively giving the omega a kiss on the forehead which surprised Jimin but he liked it
"Goodnight Minie."
"Goodnight Monie."
Jimin locks the door behind him, leaning back on to it, the smile on his face hasn't left as he thought about their night but it was going to change as soon as Yoongi turned on the lights.
Jimin feels a lump in his throat form "Y-Yoongi, I thought you'd be asleep." He approaches his boyfriend who was sipping on his coffee while the cat was asleep next to him on the couch
"Where were you?" Jimin puts down the jacket, his bag was still slung across his body with the flower entwined on one of the zippers "I'm sorry, I was out with friends and I just lost track of time." Jimin answers while Yoongi stands up, inching closer to him
"Then tell me why you reek of Namjoon's scent, wearing his jacket and displaying that flower on your bag, bet that's from him." Yoongi's voice was low and monotone and in a split second Jimin felt a burning sting on his right cheek, a metallic taste coats the inside of his mouth and a small amount of blood had dripped down the corner of his lips.
Jimin bites down on his bottom lip avoiding Yoongi's gaze and he quickly turns on his heels to get away from his boyfriend
"Park Jimin, don't walk away from me." That made Jimin bolt inside the bathroom, locking the door behind him as he falls to his knees just inches away from the door "Open the door Jimin." The knob jiggles as Yoongi tries to get in and Jimin had started to cry, getting back on his feet and cowering away to the bathtub, pressing himself against the corner.
The omega stayed in that position until hecouldn't produce anymore tears and Yoongi's efforts to get in had stopped.
Hedidn't want to sleep in the same bed as his boyfriend nor out in the open onthe couch, so he had to make do and he takes out the towels from under the sinkto create a makeshift pillow and bed inside the tub, despite how uncomfortableit was, he smiles when he sees the flower that looked unharmed on his bag, hereaches out for it, twirling it around before his eyes drooped down and he fellasleep.
