Chapter 7: Closer

Start from the beginning
                                        

After they're done eating, Jeongyeon suggested to wash the dishes and Jimin won't allow her to wash alone so he helped her in drying them.

"Are you already sleepy?"
he asked

"Nope not yet"
she replied

"Do you wanna have dessert and have a stargazing on the rooftop?" he shyly asked

"Huh? What dessert?"

"Do you want ice cream?"

Jeongyeon's eyes widened like a puppy and she happily nodded

He grabbed a tub of ice cream on the fridge and two spoons.

"Let's go!"

Jeongyeon followed her to the elevator

"You're gonna love it - great view of the stars too"

"Ooh I bet!"

"Oh my gosh!"
Jeongyeon's jaw dropped

"It's too spaceous here. Wait, is that a helipad?!"

"Haha yeah."

Jimin placed the ice cream on a small table and got a picnic mat and blankets on a small cabinet there.

"Wow how many guests have been here?"
Jeongyeon out-of-nowhere asked while still staring up the night sky full of beautiful stars

Jimin was surprised and looked at her seriously

"You're the first one"
he clears his throat.

Jeongyeon stared at him shyly

After fixing the mat and blankets, he got the ice cream and gave the other spoon to her

Jeongyeon just couldn't believe the things she is seeing and experiencing with Jimin now

"Come here"
he invited her as he sat down

"Wow. This is so nice, Jimin. I can't believe this day - from the baby turtles to the snorkelling to the dolhpin watching...the beautiful sunset...the dinner...and now this... Thank you so much."

"Ahhh it's nothing. And from now on, just call me Chim." he said and opened the tub of ice cream

"Chim?"

"Yeah that's my nickname. Here you go"

and they started to eat the ice cream. It has teo flavors - strawberry and vanilla.

"Ok.... Chim. I'm sorry I don't have a nickname"
she scooped the strawberry flavored

"Really?! Even when you were little?!"
he scooped the vanilla flavored

"When I was little they call me "sarang" because I was the youngest. When I was in grade school until college they just call me "jeong" ..in my workplace they call me "Yoo Jeongyeon" she laughed and that made Jimin laugh too

"Do you want me to give you a nickname?"

"Hmmm? Sure! What do you have in mind?"

"I think ... I'm gonna call you "hana"
("one" in korean)

"Hmmm? Why??"

"Because...you're the one...uhm *clears throat*
I think you're one of a kind. A one in a million kind." he honestly and bravely said and moved his eyebrows up and down twice
