Chapter 12: Close Quarters

As they reached the reception of the hotel, the group of students dispersed to check in, their excited chatter filling the air with anticipation for the adventures that lay ahead. Jimin and Jungkook stood together, their eyes scanning the lobby as they waited for their turn to approach the front desk.

When their group's turn finally came, they were handed their room keys and directed to the elevator that would take them to their floor. Jimin couldn't help but feel a sense of nervous excitement as they rode up, the anticipation of the trip mingling with the tension that still lingered between him and Jungkook after the incident with the stranger on the street.

As they reached their floor and made their way to their room, Jimin couldn't help but notice the awkwardness that hung between them like a heavy curtain. He knew that sharing a room with Jungkook would be challenging, especially given their complicated history, but he couldn't deny the flutter of anticipation that stirred within him at the thought of spending the night in such close quarters.

When they entered their room, Jimin's heart sank at the sight of the two double beds that awaited them. He had hoped that they would each have their own bed, but it seemed that fate had other plans. With a sinking feeling in the pit of his stomach, Jimin realized that he would have to share a bed with Jungkook—a prospect that filled him with equal parts apprehension and excitement.

As they unpacked their bags and settled into their room, Jimin couldn't shake the feeling of nervous energy that crackled between them, the air thick with unspoken tension. He tried to focus on the task at hand, but his thoughts kept drifting back to the events of the day—the stranger on the street, Jungkook's sudden display of violence, and the undeniable attraction that simmered beneath the surface between them.

Before he could dwell on it any longer, there was a knock at the door, and the other two members of their group entered the room, their cheerful voices breaking through the heavy silence that hung over them like a weight.

"Hey guys, ready to party?" one of them exclaimed, his enthusiasm infectious as he bounded into the room.

Jimin forced a smile, his heart still heavy with uncertainty as he tried to push aside the swirling thoughts and emotions that threatened to overwhelm him. He knew that he couldn't dwell on the past, couldn't let the events of the day overshadow the excitement of the trip ahead.

And so, as they all gathered together in their room, laughter and chatter filling the air, Jimin tried to focus on the present moment, on the promise of adventure and excitement that awaited them in the days to come. But deep down, he couldn't shake the feeling that their journey was only just beginning, and that the road ahead would be filled with challenges and obstacles that would test the limits of their courage and strength.
