짜장면 Jajangmyeon (1/1)
짜장면 ㅡ Popular Korean/Chinese dish that's popular in Korea. Basically Black Bean Noodles.Jimin thanked his hyung for the ride and quickly ran inside to take a shower. The worries were pounding against his skull and the anxiety was eating him up quickly. He rubbed on his skin hard with the washer hoping the pain of rubbing would distract him from thinking of his sunbae in such a way. No, he won’t be a replacement. Just because he reminds you of Yein doesn’t mean he’s going to always remind you of her. Calm yourself, Jimin. By the time Jimin was out of the shower and dried himself off, there were bright red rashes and cuts on his skin from the furious rubbing. Great, now these are going to show through my uniform tomorrow, Jimin thought. The weather was still relatively warm outside and it tends to get hot in classrooms, so he had to wear his summer uniform.He puts on some creams and lays on his bed. He thinks over everything that’s going to start happening when he gets attracted to his sunbae. It seemed bad. Yoongi-sunbae was a senior and he was only a sophomore. The amount of hate his sunbae would receive if people found out Jimin liked him would be horrible. It’d ruin the elder’s reputation. Jimin attempts to shake the thought out of his head, but that stupid attractive blond hair and the stupid deep soothing voice was implanted into his mind. Jimin sighs and runs his hands through his hair. He would never be attracted to someone like me, would he? Jimin thinks.Jimin didn’t get much sleep that night. The dark circles under his eyes were like caves and the rashes and scratches on his arms didn’t go away. He sighed. He didn’t mean to rub too hard. The frustration and anxiety got to him. Slipping on his uniform half awake, he doesn’t even brush his hair and walks downstairs. “Son, you look like you’re dead.” His father pats his son’s cheek. “Are you feeling okay?” Jimin just nods his head and was about to walk out the door when his father stopped him. “Here, let me take you to school, today. You look like you’re going to fall asleep on the bus.” When his father said that, ultimately the boy had thought about Yoongi and how he fell asleep on the bus a day or so ago. Jimin smiled at the thought and told his father okay.Jimin waved his father goodbye and walked into school. He staggered all the way to the upstairs hallway and opened his locker to retrieve his books for the morning classes. He didn’t notice the lively Taehyung that made his way over to the younger. “Good morning, Jiminie.” Jimin waved hello and shut the locker, ignoring Taehyung’s presence. It’s not that Jimin didn’t like him, it’s just. He didn’t want to talk to anyone today. He was too tired, and he felt as though if Taehyung annoyed him, the younger would end up blowing up in his face and saying something hurtful by impulse. “Jiminie, you dark circles are crazy. Are you feeling okay?” The younger shook his head no. The rest of the boys walk up to the younger and start greeting him. Jimin can see Yoongi-sunbae’s face turn into a frown as he slowly walks over. “Jimin, you look like you’re half dead.” Jimin tries to muster a laugh, “I know, hyung. I didn’t get much sleep last night.”“Jiminie, your arm!” Hoseok grabs the younger’s arm and examines it carefully. Hoseok’s grip was way too tight and Jimin was struggling to pull it back. “Who did this to you? Or how did this even happen?” Taehyung yells. Yoongi-sunbae pushes through the group of friends and eyes Jimin up and down, eyes stopping at his arms. “What happened?” Yoongi’s voice was strangely monotone filled with no emotion. He grabs Jimin’s other arm pulling him away into an empty hallway. “Yoongi-sunbae, please. What’s the matter?” Jimin chokes on his own words. The older was pulling him away too quickly. Jimin was pulled into a corridor and his sunbae finally let go. “What happened to you?”“Who did this to you? Or, did you do this to yourself?” Yoongi slightly raised his voice. Jimin cringed, he didn’t want to hear the soothing and gentle voice that comforted him to be yelling at him. “I-I don’t know, sunbae.” Jimin can feel the tears prickling in his eyes and he didn’t like it. He didn’t want to start crying in front of his crush. It’s embarrassing, especially since his sunbae didn’t do anything. “Don’t cry, please.” The younger wipes his eyes with the palm of his hand and sniffs. Yoongi felt bad, but he couldn’t help but muster a smile at Jimin’s cute image. “Sunbae, I had a lot of things on my mind and I was really stressed out. I rubbed too hard in the shower while I was venting my frustration. I didn’t do this to myself on purpose. It just sort of, happened.” Jimin looked down and shuffled his feet. He sees his sunbae’s pale hands reach out and grab his arms. He started rubbing soothing circles against the small wounds. It stung, but the warmth of the elder’s hands made up for it. “I’m always here you know. You don’t have to keep everything to yourself, Jimin.” The younger nods and thanks the older. Jimin does something he never knew he could do. He walks over and embraces his sunbae in a hug, a gesture to thank him. And maybe slight hint of affection. Yoongi hugs back and places his hand on the younger’s head, running his fingers through the soft chocolate brown hair.They both walked to the cafeteria for lunch. Yoongi patted the seat next to him and Taehyung jumps over next to the both of them and asks Jimin to hold out his arm. “I got this from the nurse’s office. I didn’t want to tell her WHY I need it,” Taehyung chews on his bread, “She would’ve gotten suspicious, thinking you were trying to harm yourself or something.” Jimin nods as Taehyung wraps the younger’s arm with the bandage. Yoongi pulls Jimin’s arm and holds his hand under the table while eating his lunch. The younger felt as if his heart would stop any minute. He looks over to his sunbae, “Sunbae.” Yoongi looks over, “Jimin, don’t call me that. Call me hyung.” Taehyung walks over and spills a handful of letters, candy, and all sorts of goods. Yoongi sighs and orderly places them all into his backpack. “Oh, look at all those confession letters and presents, hyung.” Jungkook snickers. The older shoots the youngest a glare, gesturing him to shut his mouth. Jungkook shrugs and steals a fry from Seokjin’s tray, earning yet again, another glare and slap on the arm.“Woah, hyung. You receive so many gifts,” Jimin exclaimed in awe. Jimin reaches out to take a chocolate bar and examine it but his hyung slaps his hand. “Don’t touch this filth.” The younger was confused. Why is he not grateful for all these gifts and letters that these girls or boys took the time to prepare and give to him? Jimin suddenly felt upset and sorry for the delivers. “All the people that hand Yoongi these presents just want popularity or want to get in his pants. There’s a line of boys and girls waiting for the day Yoongi decides to fuck them, too bad it’s never going to happen.” Seokjin rolls his eyes. “Stop exaggerating it, hyung.” Yoongi groans.Jimin started to wonder if that’s how others viewed him. Did others view him as a person who would use his hyung like a toy? Would he be bringing his hyung’s reputation down? All these thoughts swirled through his mind, but he pushed it to the back of his head. “Jimin, we’re going to Yoongi-hyung’s house after school today. Are you coming? We might end up sleeping out his house since tomorrow’s Saturday.” Jimin enters his hyung’s apartment. Everyone else slipped off their shoes and ran into the living room, but Jimin took the time to look around. It was cozy and it made the younger happy how the bed was unmade and how the house had smelled of honey. “Jiminie, what are you doing? Come on,” Namjoon calls. He quickly rushed over to his friends and sat down in the living room. There were snacks, fruit, and drinks laid out for everyone to eat. People were binging on the snacks and Jimin looked around. There was a medium sized television and a sand colored couch. He felt someone shove a chip into his mouth, “Jimin, why aren’t you eating? It’s good, eat.” Hoseok squeezed the younger’s cheeks and Jimin groaned. Yoongi examined the scene and felt something spark his gut. He didn’t like the way Hoseok touched Jimin or babied him. “Jimin, come over here.” Jimin looked towards his hyung and nodded. He walked over and sat down, cheeks red from either Hoseok’s squeezing or because he was sitting way too close to his favorite hyung. And he just noticed, he smelled of honey, just like his apartment. Yoongi pulled the younger to his side and everyone looked at them. Yoongi’s hand rested on Jimin’s thigh and he was rubbing relaxing circles and the younger acted as if it was the most normal thing ever. Jungkook’s jaw dropped, Taehyung dropped his chip, Seokjin stared at Yoongi in shock. Jimin notices the sudden silence then glances at his thigh then looks at his hyungs. “Oh.” Yoongi looks at his hand on the younger’s thigh but doesn’t put his hand away. He didn’t even realize he put his hand there, it’s just a habit now. Odd, but it’s true. Jimin didn’t seem to care much either, so Yoongi kept his hand there.They all hear the doorbell ring. “Oh, the pizza must be here.” Hoseok jumps up to go pay along with Taehyung and together they walk to the front door. “I’m starting to think those two have a thing,” Hoseok whispers. “Yeah, I think the same way. But, I think Jimin is a good match for our hyung.” Taehyung smiles and nudges his hyung. They quickly come back with the pizza and sit down. Jimin’s head was on Yoongi’s lap and the older was stroking the younger’s hair with his slender fingers whilst conversing with Namjoon. Everyone didn’t seem to care anymore. Jimin was playing on his phone, occasionally putting his phone up to show his hyung something funny. Yoongi would simply smile and shake his head.Everyone was eating in peace and laughing from shared stories. Jimin learned that Jungkook got accused of staring at a girl’s ass at a super market, Yoongi was accused of stealing a melody of a children’s theme song, and Seokjin had lost his virginity. It was interesting and entertaining, getting to know more about your friends. They were all sweet people, all so laid back and relaxed. All Jimin wanted to do was escape and drown himself into the honey scented room and warm laughter of his friends. He didn’t realize he fell asleep until Namjoon woke him up because they were going to go get some Korean black bean noodles. But, we just ate 3-4 hours ago, he thinks to himself. Yet, he gives in and throws on a snapback Namjoon threw at him and circular glasses that again Namjoon threw at him. He must’ve been insane, but for the first time he actually thought he looked pretty good, considering he just woke up less than 20 minutes ago. His oversized white t shirt and gray sweatpants fit him well. The younger shrugs and walks to the car as Namjoon guides him.“Jiminie, we tried waking you up so many times but you weren’t waking up,” Hoseok whined. The younger smiled apologetically and sat comfortably in his seat. Jimin must admit, he was incredibly tired. All he wanted to do was go back to sleep, but he knew that would be rude when his hyungs had invited him over. Plus, they were treating him to dinner even after buying him pizza. “Jimin, are you still sleepy?” Yoongi hyung nudges the younger a little and Jimin stirs awake from the one minute nap. He nods. “Here, you can use my shoulder as a pillow,” His hyung whispers and chuckles. “Not the most comfortable thing, but it’s better than nothing, right?” He was wrong. Even if the elder’s shoulders were bony, he smelt of honey and his body radiated warmth. It was more than what Jimin can ask for. And at that, he peacefully fell asleep once again.“Jiminie, you have to wake up now. We’re here.” Yoongi gently shakes the younger. He must admit, his puffy cheeks from sleeping too much and disheveled hair was such a pleasing sight. His precious younger looked so adorable and irresistible, he had a hard time holding in the temptations to crash the smaller into a hug. Jimin stirred awake and quickly got up. “Hyung, are we here?” The younger started panicking. “It’s okay Jimin. The others are already inside. You’re really hard to wake up.” Yoongi chuckles. They walk into the small restaurant and Taehyung gets up and pulls Jimin away from Yoongi’s grasp. The younger was surprised, but decided it was a friendly gesture and smiles at the alien. “Okay, Jimin. Pick whatever you want to eat!” Seokjin hands Jimin a menu. In all honesty, Jimin wasn’t all that hungry so he went with the classic, black bean noodles or Jajangmyeon. Some ordered spicy seafood noodles, others ordered fried pork, and Jungkook ordered shrimp fried rice.The food came and Jimin was ready to indulge into the food. One bite turned into the next and soon the delicious noodles were all gone. Jimin didn’t know that there was a lot of noodle sauce on the corners of his lips, because he was distracted by the thrashing and obnoxious dancing Taehyung was doing next to him. “Taehyung, sit down. What are you doing?” Jimin scolded his hyung. “Get down right now.” Jungkook eyes Taehyung and rolls his eyes. “Did he have a drink or something, why is he like this?” Jimin waves his hands over to Taehyung and gestures him to sit down quickly or they’ll get kicked out. “No, he does this all the time. It won’t be the first time we get kicked out of a restaurant because of him.” Jungkook sighs and drinks his water.“Yoongi-hyung, we won’t actually get kicked out, will we?” Jimin’s eyes flashed with sudden fear. Yoongi chuckles, “Jimin. You have black bean sauce all over your lips.” The younger’s eyes widen and he quickly looks for a napkin, but Yoongi stops him. “Here, I’ll wipe it off for you.” The older reaches up to wipe the younger’s cute lips but then.Taehyung accidentally elbowed Jimin’s back when dancing and Jimin nudged forward.His lips planting right onto Yoongi-hyung’s warm ones.OOOOHHHHHHHHH DAYYYYUMMMMMMM.didn't see that one coming did you? muahaha.sorry it took so long to update.80% of this chapter was written during classes on my school borrowed laptop.it took me over a week, and I was procrastinating so much wahh. i'm sorry.
