How to use my lawn mower

Summary:

Jungkook meets Jimin's friends

"Jin." Jungkook calls from his floatie in the middle of the pool.

"What?" Jin answers, already exhausted.

"Lemonade." Jungkook holds out his hand, eyes closed and sunglasses on. Jin, annoyed, pouts Jungkook this third glass of lemonade before picking it up carefully with a grabber tool and reaching it halfway across the water into Jungkook's hand.

Yes, it's extra and unnecessary, but that's exactly how Jungkook likes to live his life.

"Hey, Jungkook." Jin starts.

"What?"

"Do you mind if I leave you alone for a little while?"

Jungkook pushes his glasses down the bridge of his nose to peek over at Jin. "Leave me? Why?"

"Well, I have some friends that live around here and I wanted to go visit them today." Jin shrugs.

Jungkook snorts. "You have friends? Okay, Jin." He sips his drink.

Jin sighs, standing. "I'm leaving. I'll see you later."

"Whatever. Bye." Jungkook waves his manager away. He doesn't even bother watching him go. Instead, something catches his eye next door.

See, the Jeon's backyard is open without a fence. The neighbors could easily walk through their yard if they wanted to, and that's exactly what's happening right now.

Jungkook pushes his sunglasses to the top of his head as he narrows his eyes in Jimin's direction. What is he doing? Mowing their grass? This isn't even his property.

"Excuse me." Jungkook says, but his voice is drowned out by the loud sound of the mower. "Can you stop mowing our lawn while I'm trying to relax?" He shouts.

Jimin glances over, sweaty and annoyed by the mere presence of Jungkook. "What?" Jimin stops the mower to look over at the younger male.

"Keep the noise level to a minimum, alright? Also, why are you mowing my lawn?" Jungkook asks.

"Your parents ask me to. It has nothing to do with you." Jimin rolls his eyes. Jungkook sits up on his floatie and pulls himself to the edge, getting out of the pool and walking towards Jimin.

If he didn't know any better, he'd say was kind of checking him out. As he should. I mean, Jungkook does have the body of a god after all.

"My parents asked you to mow the lawn? Why? I'm here. I can do it." Jungkook pouts.

"Do you even know how to use a lawn mower?" Jimin snickers. Jungkook glares hard.

"Of course I do." He lies he walks towards the mower and presses down the lever above the handle, and nothing. Nothing happens. "I know... how to do this." Jungkook starts looking around the mower for something, but Jimin sees right through him.

"It's this." Jimin points towards something. He pulls it out slowly, as to not start the machine up again. "This handle on a string. Yeah, it starts the thing. You have to pull it fast though." Jimin sighs.

Jungkook, without saying anything, tries and tries, failing each time. But finally, on his fifth try, he gets it and it starts up... only to stop again.

"You have to hold the lever down." Jimin reminds him.

Jungkook tries for the sixth time and actually, surprisingly, gets it this time. He momentarily forgets that he's supposed to hate Jimin's guts and he looks up at him excitedly, eyes all big and happy with a huge smile on his face.

"I did it! I actually did it!" Jungkook laughs happily. Jimin smiles a little, but the confusion is pretty clear in his eyes. "So now I just push it?" Jungkook asks.

"Yeah. Just push it and you can cut the grass." Jimin nods. So Jungkook does. He pushes the lawn mower and mows a small section of grass. After he finishes, he lets go and walks back to Jimin.

"See, I can do anything." Jungkook laughs, back to his old self again. Jimin rolls his eyes.

"Yeah, yeah. You missed so many spots though." Jimin points. Jungkook looks.

"It's called giving the lawn character. Ever heard of it?" Jungkook crosses his arms. Jimin rolls his eyes yet again.

"Whatever. I'm gonna go finish this. You go do whatever it is that you do." He sighs. Jungkook watches as he walks off towards his yard again, only to pull of his shirt and chug down his bottle of water. Jimin then returns to what he had been doing before Jungkook had stopped him.

To be honest, Jungkook is kind of staring at Jimin right now. Jimin has a seriously great body. He's lean and toned, and something inside Jungkook wants to lick his abs--wait a second.

"What am I thinking?" Jungkook whispers to himself, shaking his head. "I'm obviously going crazy because of this heat." He swallows hard, trying his best not to keep glancing over at Jimin.

Jungkook has been struggling with thoughts like these for a little while now. Sometimes when another super attractive idol passes by him backstage he'll think they're hot, or if he's watching a drama, he'll wish he were in the main actresses shoes. He tries to stop those thoughts though. It's weird and he's had like seventy girlfriends. He doesn't need to think that way about guys. Especially not Park Jimin.

"Jimin, Jimin, Jimin!" Jungkook can hear a low sounding voice calling Jimin's name before two guys walk into the backyard from around the side of the house.

"Hey, guys. What's up?" Jimin asks, wiping the sweat from his face and body with his discarded t-shirt.

"Wanna go do something fun?" The other guy asks.

"Fun? Like what?"

"Like go to an amusement park. I really wanna go." The first one jumps up and down excitedly.

"Tae, calm down. I'll go." Jimin nods.

"Can I go?" Jungkook blurts out without realizing what he's asking. He immediately regrets the words that come out of his mouth though.

"Oh. My. God." The one Jimin had called Tae screams. "Oh my god!" He runs up to Jungkook. "You're Jeon Jungkook."

"Y-yeah." Jungkook nods, unsure.

"I'm your number one fan. My name is Kim Taehyung, but my friends call me Tae. Please call me Tae." He begs, getting to his knees, taking Jungkook's hands in his. He presses the celebrity's hands to his cheeks and squishes them together. "It feels just like how I imagined." Tae whispers.

"U-uh..." Jungkook looks up at Jimin for help, but the latter is laughing so hard that Jungkook knows he won't be helping him.

"Tae, seriously?" The other guy finally pulls his friend off of Jungkook. "Sorry about him. He's in love with you. I'm Hoseok by the way."

"Nice to meet you." Jungkook nods at him. This is weird. He isn't usually awkward when meeting new people. It's probably because of Jimin's crazy friend.

"You seriously want to go to the amusement park with us?" Jimin raises an eyebrow.

"Yeah." Jungkook stands by what he has said earlier. "Take me with you."

"Ugh, so annoying." Jimin mumbles under his breath. "Fine. Go get ready then. I have to shower then we can go."

"Really? You're really coming with us?" Tae asks excitedly. Jungkook nods. "Is this, like, our first date?"

"No..." Jungkook trails off. "Um, I'll be back. I'm gonna go... get ready..." He quickly sprints into the house to get away from Jimin's weird friend before going up to his room.

He'll definitely have to stick by Jimin's side today if he wants to avoid that weird guy.
