The Dreaming Of Escape !! (Jikook)
chapter 6
Author
Continuation...........
Jimin (CEO)
“How long is your layover?” Jimin asked conversationally as the flight attendants prepared to disarm the doors.
Jimin (CEO)
(He felt oddly heavy as he leaned against the seat in front of him. Get off this plane and you can move on, he said to himself. It’s just another chance encounter with a random stranger. Keep moving. Treat it like business.)
Jungkook (photographer)
“Uh, three hours,” Jeongguk said, checking his phone and holding it right up to his eyeline just like he had with his ticket earlier. It was like everything Jeongguk held in his hands had to be treated like a camera. “So I have some time to kill.”
Jimin (CEO)
“You on the eight-thirty flight to L.A.?” Treat it like business. Yeah fucking right. Who am I trying to kid?
Jungkook (photographer)
“The very same. Damn, one flight and I feel like a pro. I think I’m getting good at this flying thing.
Jungkook (photographer)
So now I have…. three hours to wander the airport and figure out where I need to go. My Mandarin is garbage, so here’s to hoping I don’t get lost,"
Jungkook (photographer)
(Jeongguk said with a chuckle as the doors opened, and the flight attendants began to usher out the passengers in first class. Jimin scooted into the aisle, and Jeongguk followed.)
Jimin (CEO)
“You don’t have to wander,” Jimin said over his shoulder, and he wasn’t quite sure why. He could have easily just said his goodbyes to Jeongguk and gone his own way,
Jimin (CEO)
**But somewhere in the cobweb-infested pits of his heart, where companionship should be, he wanted Jeongguk to follow him. He didn’t want to be alone, even if it was just for a few hours.**
Jimin (CEO)
“I know this airport pretty well.”
Jungkook (photographer)
“You’e been here before?”👀😲
Jimin (CEO)
“About a million times. We can just go to the lounge,” Jimin said as they began to walk down the pristine, massive halls of the airport.
Jungkook (photographer)
“The what?” Jeongguk asked, confused as Jimin spotted the Transpacific Airlines Lounge thanks largely in part to the sign hanging overhead that was illuminated.
Jungkook (photographer)
(He tilted his head a bit to the right in that direction, indicating for Jeongguk to follow, and he did)
Jimin (CEO)
“Get your ticket out,” Jimin said. Flustered,
Jungkook (photographer)
(Jeongguk fumbled around until he pulled is ticket out of his sweatshirt pocket, a bit crumpled,)
Jimin (CEO)
(And Jimin pulled his neatly folded ticket out of his wallet. If that wasn’t the perfect snapshot of personalities, Jimin wasn’t sure what was.)
Jungkook (photographer)
“I don’t understand,” Jeongguk said, looking around wildly for some kind of answer.
Jimin (CEO)
“You have a first class ticket, Jeongguk-ah. You're allowed to be in the first class lounge,” Jimin said, holding the frosted glass door open.
(Jeongguk tiptoed in like he was walking on eggshells, and then he quietly presented his ticket to the concierge, the woman waiting with a hand extended. He was given the nod of approval, so he waited for JImin before the two of them walked into the lounge together.))
**Transpacific Airlines had a rather impressive first class lounge in several airports across the world, and Shanghai was one of them. The ceilings had a few crystal chandeliers, the carpets were deep burgundy red, the tables were cherrywood, and the buffet always had hot food waiting and ready for weary travelers. The main room had soft jazz music playing and several places for patrons to sit—couches, chairs, the works. There was a quiet lounge for travelers to rest, a technology room with charging ports and desktop computers and a phone able to make international calls, and then there were the bathrooms with their floor-to-ceiling wooden doors for each stall, marble finishes, and fancy sinks.**
Jungkook (photographer)
“Holy shit. I need to fly more often,” Jeongguk breathed, gripping his backpack straps with both hands and turning in a slow circle. “This is amazing. What do you usually do here?”
Jimin (CEO)
“I usually park myself in one of those massage chairs and live my best life for my entire layover,” Jimin replied. “And by best life, I mean I enjoy answering e-mails and dealing with work shit while getting out all the knots in my lower back.”
Jungkook (photographer)
“Sounds like you work too much. Ah-h-h,” Jeongguk sighed as he collapsed into one of the empty massage chairs, dropping his bag onto the floor. He picked up the little remote and pressed a button, and then his entire body wiggled as the massage began.
Jungkook (photographer)
**He jokingly let out weird noises and groans, and Jimin couldn't help but laugh. It wasn’t the fake laugh that he usually reserved for every single person in his life, because very little amused him. This was a genuine laugh that came from the pit of his stomach, that almost hurt his chest on its way out, foreign to his body.**
Jimin (CEO)
**Then he sat in the massage chair beside Jeongguk and turned his on to his favorite settings.**
Jungkook (photographer)
“I-I-I-I lo-o-o-ove f-f-f-flying,” Jeongguk stuttered on purpose, his body twitching again as Jimin grinned.
Jungkook (photographer)
“How do you answer e-mails like this? The amount of typos must be staggering.”
Jimin (CEO)
“You get used to it,” Jimin said, his eyes already trained on his phone.
**In just a two-hour flight, his once empty inbox had accumulated thirty-five new e-mails, including one from Kyungwan surely providing a brief about the morning meeting that he opted out of purposely.**
**Namjoon had also given Jimin the courtesy of forwarding said e-mail with the subject: JUST SKIP THIS BULLSHIT E-MAIL, ENJOY SHANGHAI. Because he was that fucking perceptive.**
Jungkook (photographer)
“How many e-mails do you answer per day? Ballpark estimate,” Jeongguk asked.
Jimin (CEO)
“Anywhere between fifty to one hundred, depending on level of importance,” Jimin said, eyes still on his phone, thumbs flying.
Jungkook (photographer)
“Mhm. How many assistants do you have?”
Jimin (CEO)
“One in Seoul, one in America.”
Jungkook (photographer)
“How many times per week do you get laid?”
Jimin (CEO)
“Like, once or twice, depending on—okay, what?” JImin dropped his phone into his lap, and Jeongguk snorted with laughter as he leaned his head back just in time for a small neck massage.
Jimin (CEO)
**Jimin narrowed his eyes accusingly, but Jeongguk didn’t seem ashamed to have caught Jimin in a state of half-listening.**
Jungkook (photographer)
“Got it,” Jeongguk said with a shit-eating grin as his first massage finished. “Should I go for a second massage?”
Jimin (CEO)
“I don’t know you,” Jimin reminded him, ignoring the question. “And you don’t know me.”
Jungkook (photographer)
“Isn’t that usually how one-night stands go?” Jeongguk asked innocently, still fiddling with the massage chair remote, his eyes a bit bugged, his mouth a bit pouty as he examined the different options.
Jimin (CEO)
“Doesn’t mean that you can pry.”
Jungkook (photographer)
“I just asked a question,” Jeongguk replied innocently. “You didn’t have to answer
Jimin (CEO)
“You asked when I was vulnerable.”
Jungkook (photographer)
“Whoops,” Jeongguk said, still grinning as he leaned his head back again, his next massage beginning.
Jungkook (photographer)
“I told you before that I’m an adrenaline junkie. I like taking risks. Things like that.”😏😌
Jimin (CEO)
“Okay, and asking that question was a rush for you?” Jimin asked, deleting five e-mails in a row.
Jungkook (photographer)
“How many time per week do you take real risks?” Jeongguk asked, using similar phrasing. “And I’m not talking about business shit. I’m talking about in real life.”
Jimin (CEO)
“I don’t measure my quality of life by risks taken.”
Jungkook (photographer)
“Have you ever been skydiving? Bungee jumping? Driven a car too fast? That kind of shit?” Jeongguk asked.
Jungkook (photographer)
“I’ve been skydiving twice before. Climbed Mount Bukhasan a couple times. Went bungee jumping in Gapyeong. But I’ve also done riskier things.”
Jimin (CEO)
“What’s riskier than that?”
Jungkook (photographer)
“Getting your heart broken. Shit like that.”
Jimin (CEO)
“Oh yeah? Who broke your heart?” JImin asked, finally looking up from his phone.
Jungkook (photographer)
“Some asshole back was I was at university,” Jeongguk said ambiguously. “But it was one of this evil things, you know? Where I really thought I’d found him. The one, you know? I was at the point where I was going to make life choices based on him. But he ended things right before I started that.”
Jimin (CEO)
“Why’d he end things?”
Jungkook (photographer)
“Because he didn’t want to commit. Just the lame ass way of ducking out of a two-year relationship.”
Jimin (CEO)
“And that’s an adrenaline rush to you?” Jimin asked, interested.
Jungkook (photographer)
“It’s not the kind people normally talk about,” Jeongguk said, his second massage finishing. He sat forward and stretched with a little noise. “But it’s still valid.”
Jimin (CEO)
So what kind of adrenaline rush are you after now? You’ve had skydiving and heartbreak,” Jimin said. “Now what?”
Jungkook (photographer)
Just how fancy is this place? What are the bathrooms like?” Jeongguk asked, seemingly ignoring Jimin’s question as he hopped out of the massage chair and stretched a little more.
Jungkook (photographer)
He pivoted slowly and stared Jimin down. “Cute guy like you in a first class lounge should know that.”
Jimin (CEO)
“Uh, the bathrooms are nice,” Jimin said as his massage also stopped.
**Jeongguk swept up his backpack and slung it onto one shoulder and ruffled his hair a bit.**
Jungkook (photographer)
“Think I’ll go find out for myself.”
Jimin (CEO)
Jimin stood there slightly dumbfounded, watching Jeongguk walk off and bow halfway to a few passersby. All total strangers and he was still polite, even though he towered over most of them.
** He disappeared down the hall into the bathroom, and Jimin drew in a breath, holding it at the top as he gripped his phone. As he exhaled, he considered all the times in his life when he had taken a real risk, when he had put himself out there in fear of the worst. Something he could rub in Jeongguk’s face. Anything. He considered a few of his one-night stands, trying to determine if those were risky, but he couldn’t compare any of them to skydiving or heartbreak.**
Jimin (CEO)
**Twenty-five years alive and Jimin hadn’t taken any significant risks in life, and a man he’d known for three hours total had just shown him the light.**
Jimin (CEO)
**And it hurt. It stung as Jimin stood there with his phone in hand, vibrating incessantly with messages and e-mails as other passengers strolled around, knowing that his actions in life had barely done a damn thing to dazzle spectators of his existence. This was the last thing he needed in the middle of a layover to L.A., like a slap to the face or an Ice Bucket Challenge dump over the head,**
Jimin (CEO)
**but it was loud. It was so fucking loud, and the vibrating in Jimin’s hand kept reminding him that he was living a life someone else had set up for him. That he’d gone through university and spent all his days shadowing his father at the office and had gone home to an empty apartment, and for what?**
Jimin (CEO)
**Jimin abandoned his entire bag by the massage chair. Dropped it like trash, like its contents weren’t worth thousands. He shoved his phone into the front pocket and walked away. Never once in his professional life had he ever left his phone in a room where he wasn’t, but he, too, made a beeline for the bathrooms Jeongguk had wondered about only a minute ago, his heart pounding.**
Jimin (CEO)
“Jeongguk-ah?” Jimin stood quietly as the door to the bathroom closed, echoing a little. Jimin stepped forward and pressed a few fingers against the first stall door, which opened with a little creak. He tried the second door.
Jungkook (photographer)
