Serendipity | Jimin x Reader

Chapter 9

You broke out of your thoughts, and laughed at (b/f)'s antics. That's why you loved them, they were always there through thick and thin. You said,"Yes, I'm fine (b/f). Anyways, let's go meet them, shall we?". They smiled, now that they knew you were fine. You turned off your phone, forgetting about the small "scandal". Someone had recorded it, and uploaded it. Some of the comments were,"That person is so lucky!", "I wish Jiminie would smile at me like that", "Bish, he's mine", and "That person better be praying to Jisoos right now, cuz they should feel blessed.. Wait, does this mean Chimchim has met their soulmate?!".

You continued to walk backstage with (b/f), and with every step you took you could hear your heart beat louder and faster. You unconsciously gripped (b/f)'s hand, about to reel over. They gripped your hand back, and comforted you,"Hey! Hey (y/n)! Remember what you said to me? Just breath in and out!". You did just as they said, and took a deep breath and carefully exhaled it. You smiled, laughing that (b/f) had remembered what you've told them earlier on the train.

You released their hand, and said,"Thanks, I'm better now..". (b/f) said,"Hey no worries, I'm glad you're better. That's why best friends are here!". You nodded, and said,"Thanks, again", you continued after a deep breath,"Let's go meet the idols!". You arrived backstage, and greeted the boys.

You waved, and said,"Hello, I'm (y/n)!". (b/f), surprisingly, were handling themselves quite well. They managed not to embarrass themselves, and coolly said,"Hello, my name is (b/f)". Jimin softly smiled at you, and said,"Hello (y/n), how are you?". You blushed, and stuttered,"I- I'm fine. How about you?". Jimin grinned happily, and said,"I'm fine!".

You tilted your head to the side, and said,"Your English is better...". Jimin nodded, and said,"Yes, still not good enough as Namjoon hyung". You remembered you were still supposed to be speaking to BTS as a whole, not just Jimin, so you said,"How are the rest of you?". Namjoon quickly translated for his band members, and Taehyung looked thoughtful for a second. He spoke quickly in Korean, and Namjoon said for Taehyung,"I'm fine, just a bit tired from the concert". Yoongi coolly said,"I'm fine". Jin spoke, and Namjoon translated for you,"I'm fine (y/n). How's (b/f)?". (b/f) said,"I'm fine, thank you for asking~".

Jin smiled, and nodded. Namjoon asked you,"Is there anything you want to ask us?". (b/f) blurted out,"Can you sign some stuff?". Namjoon translated, and Yoongi shrugged. Jin said,"Sure", you didn't need Namjoon to understand him. (b/f) pulled out some merchandise, and the boys signed them. Hoseok turned to you, and asked,"Want signu?". You smiled, and said,"Sure, why not?".

You pulled a small blank piece of paper from your wallet, and handed it to them. They cheerfully signed it, and your cheeks filled with a slight blush as you noticed Jimin put small hearts by his signature. Namjoon asked,"Any other questions?". You couldn't help it but ask,"Why is V so expensive..? Especially with that 29k choker..". Namjoon bursts out laughing, and Jimin laughed as well; he liked your question. Namjoon was still laughing as he translated to Taehyung, Taehyung blushed a deep red. (b/f) was mortified about your question, but couldn't muster saying anything as the rest of the band members laughed.

Jungkook spoke with a smile to Namjoon, and he quickly translated,"I guess he just likes it, he has always liked designer brands. Taehyung always wanted the designer brands, even when we were just starting. He can afford them now with money to spare, so he likes wearing them". You nodded, and said to Taehyung,"I'm sorry if I offended you, I spoke without thinking". Taehyung was able to understand you, and you assumed he said that he forgave you. You nodded satisfied, you thought,'I have solved the mystery of the expensive Gucci man! My minutes of research have rewarded me, and many fangirls that have died in the name of science will be remembered for their valuable research'.

Hoseok looked like he was trying to hold something back, until he ultimately couldn't. The red-haired man blurted out,"How did you and Jimin meet?". Namjoon hesitated a bit, but translated nonetheless for you. You and Jimin blushed, and (b/f)'s eyes widened. So, you and Jimin already knew each other?! A light bulb suddenly lit up inside (b/f)'s head, all those times you weren't speaking to a stupid app. That explained the lack of Engrish, and sensible conversations. They didn't say anything, but pursed their lips.

You looked at (b/f) with a look that pleaded,'Forgive me!', but said,"I met Jimin in a store". Jungkook exclaimed,"Really? Is it true hyung?" while looking at Jimin. Jimin nodded, and said,"It was quite a rainy day when I met (y/n). We both wanted the last candy bar, but I gave it to her.. I discreetly put my number on it, and that's how we started talking". You said,"Yeah, Jimin gave me his coat, and walked me to school. He gave me his number through the candy bar's wrapper". Namjoon smiled, and translated for the rest of the boys; he then said,"Ah, so that's why Jimin came to the hotel without a coat..".

You nodded, and said,"He was quite stubborn; I wanted to return the coat, but he didn't let me". Namjoon translated, and Jin nodded; he said,"Yes, Jimin can be quite stubborn sometimes..". Jimin blushed, and said,"That may be true.. Anyways! Yes, that's how (y/n) and me met~". Jimin unconsciously gravitated towards you, until he was right next to you. The rest of the boys smiled at Jimin's action, and Yoongi said,".. I want to take a shower, I stink". The boys agreed, and since Jimin was right next to you, you could slightly smell the sweat from him.

Jin smiled gently at both of you, and said,"It was nice meeting you, (y/n) and (b/f)! Sorry to make our talk so short, but we stink. We should go take a shower..". Namjoon translated for both of you, and you nodded. (b/f) said,"We understand, it was nice meeting you!". You agreed with (b/f), and said,"Yes, it was very nice meeting you. Have a good night~".

The boys nodded, and Hoseok said,"It was very nice meeting you, you're nice~". Namjoon didn't bother translating, and left along with the group; Jimin remained behind. (b/f) cleared their throat, and said,"I'll wait for you outside.. To give you privacy...". You blushed, but nodded. When (b/f) left the room, it got a bit awkward.

Suddenly, you felt someone hug you. You let out a small gasp and squeezed your eyes shut; you were surprised, but nonetheless you instinctively hugged the person back. You felt your mind exploding like fire works, and felt the butterflies in your stomach go crazy. The person that was hugging you was just about three centimeters taller than you, it wasn't that much of a height difference. You opened your (e/c) orbs carefully, and saw blond hair in front of your face. You felt the hair touch your cheek, and you smiled; the person's hair was quite soft.

You tentatively asked,"Jimin...?". Jimin hummed, and said,".. I missed you". You let out a watery smile, and whispered,"I missed you too". Jimin separated a bit, and stared at you, admiring your pretty face. You saw the conflict in his brown eyes, and you bet he could see it too in your own (e/c) eyes. You bit your lip, you wanted to kiss him. Then you remembered sadly that he must have a soulmate, or at the very least a girlfriend.

Your eyes drooped, and Jimin seemed to make up his mind. He let you go, turning away to not face you, and said,"It was nice seeing you (y/n). Thank you for coming to the concert..". You were disappointed, but you knew it was for the best. A part of you was hurt, but you didn't want Jimin to know. You cleared your throat to get rid of your incoming tears, and said,"Yes--", your voice unwillingly cracked. You started again,"It was nice seeing you, Jimin".

You turned to leave, but before you left backstage, you wanted to say one last word. You softly said,"Good night, Jimin", and rushed out. (b/f) was waiting for you, like they promised earlier. They had an angry expression, and were about to blurt something out; but they stopped at once when they saw your emotions. You tried to hide it from them, but they were (b/f). Nothing ever got away from them; after all, they had known you since fourth year in primary school.

They opened their mouth to say something, but you held your hand up to silence them. Your voice cracked as you said,"Please.. Please don't.. I don't want to talk right now". They nodded, and said,"I understand. Come on, let's go home....". You wiped away the few tears that had escaped you, and walked with (b/f) to the train station. You arrived, and sat down in one of the benches to wait for the train; it was still about seven more minutes before the train arrived. You tried to not think about it as you boarded the train and went home. Although you had agreed with (b/f) that you would drop them off at their house, they denied you. They, instead, were the ones that walked you home; they wanted to make sure you were okay until you got home.

When you arrived, you opened your house's door. You smiled tiredly at (b/f), and said,"It was a good day, huh?". (b/f) pursed their lips, and said,"Rest (y/n), I'll call you in the morning". You absentmindedly nodded, and closed the door; and took off your shoes. Your parent was already sleeping, so you quietly made your way upstairs and into your room. You tried to hold in your tears as you undressed, but ultimately couldn't as you climbed into your warm (f/c) bed. You cried yourself to sleep this night.
