"Thanks subnae, I appreciate that.. and the food," I tapped my spoon to the bowl with a big smile, "as always."

Thanks to my impromptu breakfast date with Jin, I was now officially running late to the choreography session. Not that that they really needed me anyways.

Hoseok, Jimin and the choreographer-nims were up in the studio perfecting a routine they were going to the teach the boys. It was going to be atleast three hours of the staff just watching on. Three hours, at Jimin's beck and call.

Arriving at the mirror lined room, Hobi and Jimin were dancing to one of their new songs and were testing out what they each thought was a more suitable move. The music blared across the room.

Jimin was in his element.

He had paired a white baggy Supreme cut off shirt with his black joggers, finishing his look with a matching snapback. As he swiftly showcased his dance, I caught myself peeking at his pectorals whenever his bare side was turned to me. His turning and jumping caused his shirt to fly up more than usual, revealing his chiseled abs.

Thank God for this shirt.

I flushed at the sight of him and realised he had been intently staring me down as he worked his body. I was sitting at the front with the rest of the staff, making it easy for him to keep his smouldering eyes on me. I could feel him peeling my clothes off in his head.

The rest of the session was what I expected. Plenty of intense dancing and choreography finalisation, sprinkled with the two Bangtan boys being cheeky with each other.

Luckily, they were too busy to do anything but dance, so the staff mainly helped with turning the music on and off as well as recording their rehearsal.

I rushed out of there as soon as I could, I wouldn't allow myself to stare at Jimin any longer.

For three long hours, I was slowly drinking him in like a tall glass of hot chocolate. A tall glass of smoking hot chocolate.

Thankfully, my phone chimed; a timely distraction.

Are you done?
I need you.

Namjoon's last three words rang in my ears like he was saying them to me in person. I felt a pang shoot through my chest as I wondered what was wrong.

Yeah, I'm done.
I'll be there.

His reply told me to go to the recording studio so I marched straight to the elevator, wasting no more time.

When the elevator finally 'ding'-ed, announcing its arrival, I rushed in and pressed the floor number for where Namjoon would be. The doors didn't close straight away so I held down the 'close' button hoping that it would help.

Just before the two metal doors touched, a hand reached out and held the right door, halting its slide and reopening the doors I was so desperately trying to shut.

I could smell the fresh combination of soap and skin, and it caught me off guard. The sliding doors opened to reveal Jimin in an unzipped hoodie with nothing underneath. His defined torso was displayed in all its glory. He had his hood over his wet dangling hair, shading his tense face that didn't flinch when he met my eyes.

"Hi sunbae," I chirped meekly, barely over a whisper. "You.. you worked hard today.."

No response.

He entered the steel box and stood dead center, turning around to face the entrance. Not knowing what else to do, I backed up onto the walls in fear I might accidentally touch him.

The air was heavy as we stood there in silence.

Was he going to just ignore me from now on?

I guess silence was better than awkward conversation. Because even if he was talking to me, I wouldn't know what to say.

I didn't even know how I felt about the other night, or how I was supposed to address it. I have never had a one night stand, and even though we didn't necessarily sleep with each other, I still didn't know the correct 'day after' protocol.

I took a deep breath to steady myself, only to be greeted by the smell of his freshly bathed skin. He must have had a quick shower after the session, and boy, he smelled fine.

Almost as instantly as the elevator shifted, the clunking piece of metal came to a screeching halt. The lights went off and we were instantly shrouded in darkness.

I gasped, unsure of what was happening or if we were going to be okay. Gripping the cold metal bars behind me, I desperately tried to keep myself together.

I must have been breathing quite heavily, because seemingly out of nowhere I heard Jimin say, "Don't worry, we'll be okay."

My cold fingertips felt the echoing and vibrations of the elevator working hard to start up again, but we were still unmoving in the dark. It was hard to believe him and I was now close to hyperventilating. My breaths amplified in this metal box.

Suddenly, I felt a set of arms around me and a warmness against me. Jimin had his hand behind my head, caressing me as he repeated his reassuring words. I was clutching the fabric against his chest in response to his welcomed embrace, and my fear settled.

It's funny how Namjoon had done the exact same thing hours ago, and it felt so different. I was no longer worried about the blackout, but my heartbeat had only accelerated. I didn't know it when I saw him today, but after touching him I realised how much I ached for him.

I buried my face into his broad chest and took a deep breath. Engulfed in his embrace and his soap scented skin, I knew I wanted him. Just like I did last night.

Lowering his head, Jimin spoke softly in my right ear as he wrapped himself tighter around me.

"It's okay, I'm here for you.." barely over a whisper, his voice sent shivers down my spine.

When his breath touched my shoulder, I slowly turned my face towards his. My cold nose grazed his warm cheek and I paused at the proximity of our lips.

I could feel Jimin press his forehead against mine and alligned the rest of my face to his. With his heavy breaths bouncing off of my skin, I parted my lips as they grappled for his. I was on my toes, ready to make him mine as he pulled me in closer, his arm on the curve of my back.

"Y/N.."

Just as we were about to touch, the elevator's arrival bell rang and we scrambled to get as far away from each other as possible. The lights had come back on, and the door was opening. Neither of us were looking at the other.

Suddenly, a husky voice called out to us from outside.

"It's a hidden camera prank!"
