Crazy for you

Jungkook breaths slowly through his nose to calm himself. He was getting a little worked up with the thought of Jimin keeping a secret. He reaches out one of his hands to grab Jimin's and enterlocks their fingers together. "Why does it make you sad? You can tell me anything, don't you know that?"

"I know that."

"Then just tell me why."

"Because." Jimin feels uncomfortable with the sudden change of direction their chatter has taken them. He didn't want to talk about anything dark, he didn't want it to be brought up, but Jungkook isn't making it easy to avoid today. He mumbles under his breath when he speaks, because it's more embarrassing than he even realized himself. It feels bad to talk about it, even with his boyfriend. "It's stupid. It's just because I'm still kind of amazed that you find me attractive the way that you do, that you want me all the time. I don't see myself that way and, baby I don't know. I just keep thinking about having to beg for you to have sex with me and it makes me feel bad, because if I don't feel great about myself, I keep imagining how low it's going to make me feel."

Jungkook tilts his head to the side, confused now. He glances at Jimin quickly before returning his eyes to the road. "You don't see how attractive you are? Mochi, why would you ever feel low with me?"

"I told you it was stupid."

"It's not stupid." Jungkook squeezes Jimin's hand in his. "No, I want to know how you feel, it's important to me."

Jimin brings their joined hands up to press a kiss against Jungkook's and he smiles softly. "You're sweet, bunny. It's not your fault that I'm like this. Sometimes I just look at you and I see how far out of my league you are."

"Mochi, no. That's not even close to the truth. Are you crazy?" Jungkook is beginning to feel a little upset. He sighs again and shakes Jimin's arm against his own. "Have you been sleeping okay? What's going on with you? You're the one that's out of my league!"

"I don't feel that way. You're way better looking than I am."

"No, hell no. You're actually perfect." Jungkook never knew a red light would make him feel relived, but he's thankful when he's able to stop for a moment to turn his complete attention on his boyfriend. "Why don't you talk to me about this, love? How long have you been feeling bad about it?"

"Forever."

"It's not true. If you've been really thinking like this, you're delusional then."

"It's stupid. I knew you would deny what I'm saying, baby. I still feel like this." Jimin takes in a calming breath before his eyes start to prick, before his emotions get the best of him. He smiles again, but his eyes stay averted from Jungkook's heavy stare. "It's not that I don't believe you when you say you think I'm sexy, or cute, I just don't see it as much." He shrugs, as if it's not a big deal.

Jungkook hums to himself, feeling the weight of Jimin's unexpected confession on his shoulders now. "If you believe me when I tell you how sexy you are, when I show you how much I want you, why can't you see it?" He rubs the crinkles in his forehead to relax them, his expression stressed. "Mochi, I hate it that you feel this way. I actually hate it. It's absurd. How can you not see how gorgeous you are?"

"Don't feel bad about it."

"I will feel bad, because obviously I don't take care of you enough for you to feel comfortable with me."

"I do feel comfortable with you!"

"Not comfortable enough. You don't want to beg for me because you think it will make you feel low."

"Baby, I just have low self esteem. It's not about what you say or what you do. It's just how I am."

"But I am the one who's supposed to change that for you!"

"You are! It's getting better, that's why I'm able to joke with you, that's why I started teasing you! That's why I'm even telling you all of this." Jimin sighs loudly. He pivots his body to face Jungkook. "It's better than it used to be. I feel way more secure about myself, especially when I'm with you. You always make me tell you everything, you make me face all of my stupid problems. We do it for each other and it's good. I'm facing all of these things I've been keeping from everybody and overcoming them. I'm happy, with you, baby. You did that, okay? Don't say that you don't take care of me."

Jungkook is quiet for a while. He licks his lips and lightens the frown in his expression. "Love, if you feel sad because of this bet, then lets stop."

"Baby, no."

"No, if it's stressing you out-"

"No, lets keep the bet. We made a deal."

"I don't you want you to feel upset, mochi."

"I'm upset because of myself, I don't want to ruin it for you."

"It's ruins it for me if you're unhappy."

Jimin smiles. "I'm not unhappy, I'm happy. I'm happy to be with you. I even feel better now after I've told you all about this, so now you can know that I think you're so attractive, bunny. I feel like I hold that back from you a lot, but I'm crazy for you."

"I'm crazy for you, too. You know that, right?"

"I know that." Jimin bites his lower lip, looking up at the side profile of his boyfriend. Jungkook glances at him again and he can feel butterflies fluttering in his stomach. He moves closer to rest his cheek against Jungkook's arm. "It's not that bad, baby. I can beg for you if I have to."

Jungkook laughs suddenly. He momentarily lays his head against Jimin's and grins. "You're making it hard for me to even want to win anymore."

"Mm, maybe that's my plan."

"I wouldn't put it past you to plan all of this. Is this an attack?"

"No, baby. I'm being honest." Jimin giggles and presses himself even closer to Jungkook. "But, it would be a really good attack if it were one."
