Chapter:2

...Even after almost 11 years Yoongi still remembers so much....

...Jimin's pet peeves....

...The feel of his small soft hands in Yoongi's big callused ones....

...The high pitched whines he made when Yoongi teased him....

...Yoongi remembered so much that some people would probably think he had seen the younger yesterday....

...But one of Yoongi's fondest memories was the first time Jimin came to his and Hoseok's dorm, or the second time he had seen him....

...Hoseok had texted him an hour or so before, telling him that he was going to bring Jimin by today. Of course, Yoongi hadn't heard his phone go off because he was practicing a new piece of music....

...He didn't even realize that Hoseok had opened his door to let Jimin inside....

...He didn't even hear Hoseok's obnoxious laugh....

...Only when he paused to crack his knuckles did he hear a small whisper from an unknown voice....

...Yoongi turned around in his seat and was blessed with the sight of the boy who had captivated his thoughts for the past week....

...He let a small smile come to his lips before talking, "Oh uh, hey, I didn't know you were coming today."...

..."I texted you." Hoseok had pointed out....

..."You should've known I was practicing."...

..."Yoongi, I never know when you're practicing. Some days you don't even sit at the piano and other days it's all you do from when you wake up to when you go to sleep. Hell, I've even gotten up at 5 a.m. before and heard you playing Can't Help Falling In Love."...

..."It was the first song I learned. I wanted to see if I still remembered it." Yoongi tried to defend himself....

..."AT FIVE O'CLOCK IN THE FUCKING MORNING YOONGI!!"...

...That was the first time Yoongi heard Jimin laugh....

...It was the most beautiful noise he had ever heard and would grow to be his favorite....

...Jimin looked up and smiled at Yoongi, who was probably just staring at him in amazement because he wasn't aware such a beautiful laugh even existed....

...Again, though, just to clarify, Yoongi was not in love. He refused to be in love with someone he just met. He was just, very, very fond of the idea and existence of Park Jimin....

...Yeah, that was it....

..."I'm sorry if you were in the middle of something. I can come back another day. You were amazing, though." Jimin had a small blush creeping onto his cheeks....

...Yoongi was suddenly very aware of how he wanted Jimin to stay, "N-No, please, you don't have to go. If you want to you can stay. I can show you some better stuff. I'm just learning that piece."...

...Jimin's smile seemed to get slightly bigger at his words, "Then I guess I'll be staying."...

..."That's great!" It was Yoongi's turn to smile and it kind of disturbed Hoseok a little, and yes, he was still there. Just watching the interaction between a grumpy old grandpa and an actual ray of sunshine....

..."Well, this whole Yoongi smiling shit is too weird for me. I'm going to like, go and be a third wheel with Namjoon and Jin or something."...

...Yoongi looked at his friend, "Piss off Hoseok."...

..."Goodbye to you too. God what a sweetheart. I can't believe you said my name. Jimin you must be a great influence on him because he's already 92 percent nicer to me. Usually, he would say something along the lines of '**** head, **** off. I'm trying to work and your trash music is getting in the way'."...

..."Ok, that's a lie. I don't call your music taste trash. That would be like calling a small fraction of my music taste trash."...

..."Yah, whatever. I'm out, goodbye Jimin. If Yoongi is rude to you in any way, shape, or form just call me and I'll come beat him up or something."...

...Jimin laughed again and that was the only thing holding Yoongi back from saying anything else before Hoseok left....

...After that, there was a very small amount of awkwardness in the room, enough to be able to ignore. Yoongi asked if Jimin had any songs he wanted to hear on the piano and Jimin could only think of one....

..."Have you heard of Debussy?"...

..."Of course. He's amazing."...

..."Do you know Rêverie? It's really beautiful."...

...That's when Yoongi first thought it was possible that there might be a chance that he could actually fall in love with Jimin. He knew about music. Actual real music. Music not played on the radio, music that he would've had to look for....

...Yoongi was grateful, usually, when he asks someone to suggest a song it's a pop or a hip-hop song. Which isn't bad, it's just, his favorite type of music to play on the piano is music that is written specifically for piano....

...The rest of the night continued like this. After Yoongi finished a song Jimin would shower him with compliments. The younger boy was in absolute awe....

...Yoongi didn't know how to respond to all the praise. He was never good at thanking people, probably because he knew he was good. Why thank someone when all they do is state the obvious?...

...But with Jimin, he felt so much pride every time the boy said anything nice....

...He honestly didn't know why. After years of hearing compliments, he thought he had grown numb to them. After the age of 13 compliments just became everyday words. The feeling he had with Jimin though, it was like he was nine years old again, just starting to play the piano for people other than his family....

...When Hoseok came home, Jimin was still there. He was quite shocked, to be honest. Yoongi wasn't good with people, he always preferred to be alone. If it wasn't for Hoseok he would go days without seeing a single soul....

...So for Hoseok to come home hours later and see Jimin happily sitting on Yoongi's bed and the older still at the piano playing, a song unknown to Hoseok, was quite the shock....

...Hoseok had to knock loudly on the door for the two boys to finally notice him....

..."Hey, it's getting pretty late, like 11 o'clock. Jimin if you want you could stay over."...

...Jimin's smile fell, "Oh gosh, I have to get home Jungkook and Taehyung are going to kill me. I only said I would be gone a couple of hours tops. Shit," (Yoongi almost choked, an angel swearing? Shocking.) (And also kinda hot)....

...He would never admit it, not even to this day, but Yoongi felt a little disappointed when Jimin couldn't stay....

...Hoseok left the room and Yoongi decided to help Jimin get his things together....

..."You know, this was really great. You seem really cool."...

...Yoongi almost snorted at the statement Jimin made. He had been called a lot of things and cool was nowhere on the list....

..."Thanks, we should do it again sometime. Maybe next time you show me you're dancing." The older really needed to do this again. He needed to see him again....

...Jimin bit his lip nervously, "That would be awesome."...

..."Ok, when, so I can be prepared this time." Yoongi laughed awkwardly....

..."What about tomorrow?" Jimin answered quickly, "I mean if you want to that is."...

...Of course, Yoongi wanted to....

...The rest of the week Jimin came over. Some days Yoongi played the piano, Others Hoseok let them borrow his practice room so Jimin could dance....

...Yoongi was absolutely blown away with how much emotion the younger put into dancing. It was always hard for Yoongi to understand why people liked to watch others dance and even why people danced. It never appealed to Yoongi....

...But after watching Jimin, he understood. He understood because Jimin danced the way he played the piano. With buried emotion that he had hidden from people....

...He finally understood because what Jimin did came naturally. He didn't have to learn. It was just pure talent....

...He understood because Jimin's dancing made you feel something....

...The week ended but their time together didn't. They started to get to know each other and hang out outside of Yoongi's dorm. Yoongi came to call Jimin friend and the younger did the same....

...Eventually, Yoongi met Jimin's friends. One of them, Taehyung, was hyper and very talkative. While the other one, Jungkook, was more conserved and why (which soon changed when he felt comfortable around Yoongi). Taehyung was the same age as Jimin and Jungkook was a year younger. They were dating. Yoongi was fine with that, considering he was very bisexual himself. A part of him wondered if gays just all flocked to each other. Jin was gay, Namjoon was hella bisexual, Hoseok was asexual, and now three new additions, two being gay and Taehyung being pansexual....

...Honestly, there had to be some kind of magnetic pull or something....

...When Jimin met Yoongi's friends they immediately liked him. Of course, Hoseok already knew him but Namjoon and Jin could not stop cooing at him. If Yoongi remembers correctly, Jin even pinched one of his cheeks and called him a small baby....

...Jimin, of course, liked them. He alway seemed so comfortable around people, it wasn't that surprising....

...So just like that, the amount of friends Yoongi had doubled. It was weird. Having three new people to remember. Three new people that wanted to be around him. It seemed like everything was changing. Little by little and it was so, so very weird....

...Weird, but in a good was....
