Serendipity | Jimin x Reader

Chapter 7

The man on the other side of the phone took a few seconds to respond to you,"Well, miss, you did win them! So see you on Sunday!" and deliberately hung up. You were shocked, and confused. Should you believe in the man, or not? You shrugged, and remembered that you had to call (b/f); that's what you did. While you waited for them to respond, you stood in the warm air of July.

Jimin's POV
He didn't know if this was such a good idea; his band members had found out about (y/n). Hoseok teased him, saying,"Eh..?! Since when did Jimin have a girlfriend?". Jimin hissed,"Shut up hyung! They're not my girlfriend! We're not even dating!". Yoongi said,"Hmm.. Well, when did you meet them?". Jimin blushed a bit, and said,"A couple months ago". Namjoon said,"Have you seen them recently?". Jimin shook his blond hair, and said,"No, unfortunately not. They have had school and work, and I have had dance practices".

Namjoon nodded, and then Jungkook asked Jimin,".. Are they cute?". Jimin's cheeks flushed in an adorable pink blush, and meekly nodded. Taehyung asked the dreaded question,"... Have they met their soulmate?". The room filled with silence, hearing the much dreaded question. Jimin hung his shoulders, and said honestly,"... I don't know, V". Jin consoled the younger male, patting his shoulders sympathetically.

The rest of the band members hated seeing Jimin so depressed, they knew how sensitive the issue of soulmates was to him. Hoseok had a brilliant idea that could cheer Jimin up. He smiled cheerfully, and said,"Well, since Jimin said that he hasn't seen them in a couple months, why not invite them to the concert? I also want to meet them!". Jimin blushed, but thought,'That's actually a pretty good idea! Thank you hyung!!'.

Jimin nodded his head, and Yoongi said,"Hmm, well why not?". Jin, as the oldest, had to agree. Jimin turned to look at him with hopeful brown eyes, and Jin sighted but smiled. He said,"I agree with Yoongi. Let's meet this person". Hoseok and Jungkook cheered, and Jimin said,"How will we do it?". Namjoon said,"Well, how about we call them? You do have their phone number, don't you?".

Jimin nodded, and said,"Alright, who will call them?"; everyone turned to look at Namjoon. His eyes widened, and said,"Hey, why me?!". Yoongi pointed out,".. You're the only one here completely fluent in English". Namjoon nodded a bit embarrassed, but said,"Alright then, I'll do it. Jimin, give me their phone numbers and I'll call them. Oh, by the way, what's their name?".

A small part of Jimin wanted to deny his hyung, because he wanted to selfishly keep your number to himself; ultimately he had to give your number and your name up to the older male. Once Namjoon had your phone number, he pressed DIAL. The whole group waited with bated breath for the mysterious person to answer. You absentmindedly pressed ANSWER on the other side of the phone, and Jimin heard your sweet voice call out,"Hello? Who is this?".

Namjoon silently cleared his throat, and then he spoke,"Hello? Is this (y/n)?". The boys heard (y/n) respond,"Yes, it's me. How may I help you?". Hoseok blurted out,"Hey, they're pretty nice!", while both Yoongi and Jimin chastised him by quietly saying,"Shush Hoseok!". Taehyung cutely said,"I agree hyung!". Hoseok then cynically shushed Taehyung. Jin gave them the evil eye, and they immediately shut up, meanwhile Namjoon continued,"Do you know the group BTS?".

Jimin heard the hesitance in your voice as you responded,".. Yes?". Namjoon nodded, and said with a bit of fake enthusiasm,"Well, you are in luck miss! BTS will be performing this weekend, and you have won front row tickets and a back stage pass!". The group of boys waited again with bated breath for the person on the other side of the phone to answer, and they were getting a bit nervous when they didn't hear you responding. Jimin worried that you would hang up, and wished that you would believe them.

Namjoon, a bit worried, asked into the phone,"Miss, are you still there?". Jimin mentally chuckled a bit, he could imagine you sighing; you responded,"Yes, I am. Um, excuse me.. But how did I win them? I haven't entered any contests at all, and I don't think I would win them for any reason at all. Is this some type of prank?".

Namjoon smiled, you were quite smart and he liked that. Jimin saw the older man's smile, and he inwardly was seething at Namjoon's smile; he didn't say anything though, to avoid any conflicts and out of respect for the older man. Apparently Jimin wasn't too successful hiding his anger, as Namjoon turned to look at him; everyone in the room had felt Jimin's aura change. After a few seconds, Namjoon remembered he was still supposed to be speaking to you, and said,"Well, miss, you did win them! So see you on Sunday!".

He hung up, and turned to look at Jimin again. It didn't matter now, Jimin seemed to have calmed down, and started to think rationally again. He was now smiling, happy that you were coming. Just to make sure, he texted you,"Believe". Jimin knew you would understand when you saw the text, and was looking even more forward to Sunday. 

(y/n)'s POV

It took a while for (b/f) to respond, but by then you were on the train. You huffed a bit, it was a bit too hot for your liking, but it didn't matter. (b/f) voice was clear on the phone as they asked you,"So, who were you speaking with?". Your eyes widened, and you said,"You won't believe me". (b/f) smirked on the other side of the phone, and said in a bit of a cocky tone,"Try me". You said,"... I just received a call from this strange man saying I won front row and backstage passes to see BTS on Sunday.. I think he's bullsh*tting me though".

You hear silence on the other side of the phone, you almost laughed imagining (b/f)'s face of disbelief and shock. You then spoke with the same cocky tone (b/f) had used,"Did I try you good?", and (b/f) spoke with anger in their voice for making fun of their earlier comment,"Yes, yes you did. Stop bullsh*tting (y/n)!". You dropped your smile, and said,"I honestly don't know, (b/f). What if it's true?". (b/f) then earraped you,  screaming,"THEN YOUR CANDY @SS BETTER TAKE ME!". You chuckled, and said,"Already thought of that, don't worry".

Your friend then smiled, and said genuinely into the phone,"Thank you (y/n); truly". You grinned, and said,"Yeah, no worries. Anyways, what did you want to say earlier before I had to end our call?". (b/f) shook their head, and said,"Forget about it. See you on Sunday!". You nodded, and said,"Okay, see you!".

You got off the train on the correct station for your job, and ambled towards the animal shelter. You smiled happily, thinking about the pets awaiting for you at your job. You walked a bit faster to get to the animals more quickly, and finally arrived at your destination. You greeted Ms. Abe as you went to the employees' locker room, and changed into your uniform quickly. Before leaving, though, you received a text message.

You checked it quickly, and were surprised at seeing it was from Jimin. You opened the message, and were confused at seeing the message read,"Believe". It took you a moment to realize what was happening, but then you got it. You smiled gently, knowing that the man wasn't bluffing when he told you you were going to see BTS on Sunday.

Jimin smiled on the other side of the phone, relieved when he saw that you read his message. Both of you were happy, you were going to see each other in a couple days after not seeing each other for a couple months. Your and Jimin's hearts started to beat, and a gentle blush adorned both of your cheeks. You put your phone away, and locked the lock on your locker. You greeted some of your co-workers, and smiled at seeing the gentle pets; you loved working here.
