Words: 3k

Genre: Fluff

Jimin goes with a couple of his friends (Namjoon and Hoseok) to the escape room that just opened up near his apartment

Jungkook is one of the employee’s hired in the escape room, along with his friends (Taehyung, Yoongi, and Jin)

Taehyung manages the front desk. Jin is the manager who resets the rooms. Yoongi is in charge of the tech equipment. And Jungkook is the one who watches the surveillance cameras and gives hints to the escapees when they call for help

Okay so one day Jimin goes and there’s a bit of a crowd so they end up having to wait, and are going to be the last ones before closing

Jungkook is already exhausted cause they had not only gotten one group of rowdy teenagers but TWO that day, and let me tell you... Jungkook could have given them the key to unlock the door and they still wouldn’t have known how to escape. So he’s a little peeved but “Don’t worry Jungkookie, only one more group and we’re off the hook for today” - Taehyung

Jungkook goes over to his little station and is playing some Overwatch to pass the time when he hears the buzz of one of the “help lines”. He answers with a bit of a grunt, ‘cause do people really have to phone so often? And also he was whooping some major ass today in Overwatch and now his streak is broken so thanks a lot.

But he’s greeted with a quiet “sorry... umm, we seem to be stuck on the locker combinations”. And suddenly all his grumpiness is wiped out cause on the other end is the gosh darn cutest voice he’s ever heard. In the back of his mind he can remember Tae saying something like “damn this group is an 11/10 would bang” but Jungkook had filed it away as some random shit Tae says. But now his curiosities peeked with this mysterious angelic voice so he swivels his chair over to the monitors that have a clear view of the room and- Oh MaN HoLy ShIT

Even with the not so HD quality cams Jungkook can tell this guy is attractive

Silky dark brown hair tucked into a black beanie. Soft round features and a glowing complexion. And from what Jungkook can make out he’s short cause the boy seems to be drowning in his oversized white shirt. He’s so focused on trying to see more from the pixels on screen of the cutie holding the phone and- Oh shit that’s right the phone

“Oh... ummm..yea” he clears his throat “sorry, you’re stuck?” There’s a breathy shy kind of laugh from the other end of the line and “Yeah.. we’ve found the first clue after the puzzle and I’m guessing it’s for the lockers but we’re not sure just how to solve it. Can you help us.. please?” And I mean it is Jungkook’s job, but how can he not help when he asked so nicely.

And Jungkook doesn’t know what’s coming over him but he can’t help himself when he suddenly says “Before I give you my oh so helpful clue, I’m gonna need a name to go along with that sweet voice” And UGH did he ReaLLy just say that, why on EARTH is Jungkook even trying to flirt. Jungkook’s cringing, oh no he’s cringing real bad... and it doesn’t help that the only thing he hears is the static of the other end of the line,

He’s chewing on his lip searching for any kind of reaction... but damn his boss for being a cheap ass and not installing HD monitors cause Jungkook can’t tell what cutie’s reaction is with these shitty pixels-

But then the silence is broken by a sweet little giggle and a “Jimin”

His gay panic calms down

“I’m Jungkook”

And soon enough Jimin is phoning Jungkook more than he should, and Jungkook’s out there entertaining Jimin with the worst related hot/cold escape room pick up lines in the world

“We’ve gotten to the steam room..”

“Are you a sauna? Cause you’re making me steamy”

~

“I hope you’ve found the fire extinguisher because you’re smoking hot - Is it hot in there? Or is that just you?”

~

“Jungkook, we need to find a candle but there’s no-“ “Are you sitting on a candle cause your booty is on fire” “OH MY GoD- HAhAhHhAahHa... Namjoonie I’m sitting on the candle hAhaa”

Okay so finally Jimin, Namjoon, and Hoseok are in the last room before they manage to “escape”. They managed to get out of the sauna and are now in what seems like an igloo/cold incubation. They’ve found some clues but they just need two more to be able to get the hell out of there. So Jimin skips over to the phone. “Jungkook~~, we’re almost done! We’re in the cold room, but can’t figure out the whole maze on the wall”

“Hmm, okay so the wall inside the igloo has the-“

“Oh oH wait.. I have one”

And Jungkook’s slighting confused to what Jimin means when he says “Jungkook, do you live in an igloo? Cause you seem like a pretty cool person”

And Jungkook’s shell shocked cause not only did Jimin just sort of flirt back but the boy is giggling and Jungkook can see through the monitor how he laughs with his whole body and wooow I think I just fell in love

Jimin’s still laughing when Jungkook is about to reply and then suddenly there’s a ruffling sound coming from the other end and Jungkook sees on the monitor that one of the guys Jimin came with is fighting to get the phone out of Jimin’s grip.

Jimin is being held arms length away whining a “hyungg, what are you doing?” when the guy speaks up on the phone “Okay whoever this Jungkook guy is, I want to get the fuck out of here and we can’t do that with the two of you constantly flirting-“

“Hyunggg, stop omg”

“Oh hush up Jimin, you can get the guys number when we get out of here. But first we have to GET OUT!” And Jungkook can see the blush taking over Jimin’s face and the way he’s struggling to get back to the phone but this new guy just keeps his arm held out and Jimin’s fighting is futile. So Jungkook just stutters out a “sorry” and helps them with what they need

(Cut to Jimin after Hoseok hung up the phone)

“HyuNG I’m going to murder you omg whyyy do you have to be so embarrassing ughhhh” Jimin’s glaring daggers at Hoseok by now

“That was utterly humiliating Hoseok, I can’t imagine what Jungkook feels. Oh god you’re such a dick” Jimin lays his head in his hands to try and block some of the shame. “Jiminie, you know what a scaredy cat Hobi-hyung is.. he just wants to get out of here as quickly as he can and you’re making it pretty hard with the long ass telephone calls.” -Namjoon

Jimin crosses his arms and pouts “Oh come on Jiminie... I’ll admit, it was entertaining at first seeing you act like a love struck school girl talking on the phone but I’m tired of being stuck in this ice chamber!” - Hobi

“LOVE STRUCK SCHOOL GIRL WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?!?” Jimin half grumbles/screams. Namjoon and Hoseok just look at each other and roll their eyes.

Jimin, Namjoon, and Hoseok finally manage to escape without phoning for Jungkook’s assistance anymore because Jimin is still petrified over Hobi’s humiliation and doesn’t have the courage to talk anymore

While their paying and taking their victory pictures (because they managed to escape under the time limit) Jimin is nervously biting his lip cause: Should he ask to see Jungkook-What would he say? I mean sure they had a thing sort of going on while they flirted through the phone but does that classify as wanting to date or even liking Jimin? Oh god what is he supposed to do?

In the meantime of his mental crisis, Taehyung has managed to chat up Hoseok whose a laughing mess And Namjoon is leaning over the counter spilling his philosophical values onto Seokjin

Jimin manages to break out of his reverie cause how can he concentrate when someone is fucking cleaning windows in here... but when he turns around there’s the really handsome man Namjoon was talking to laughing like a freaking windshield wiper and Jimin can’t help but crack a smile. And then two other guys are emerging from the employees room and woooow. Jimin’s eyes immediately fall onto the taller of the two. He has brown hair that was styled into a half part, showing some forehead but now seems a bit messy due to a long day at work. Thick eyebrows seem to poke through some of the hair. But his eyes... Jimin’s never seen such pretty eyes before. Big and round, brown and friendly and inviting. His eyelids even have a cute curve to them. And there seem to be sparkles in his pupils, twinkling eyes is this guy a fucking anime character? “Doe eyes” is what Jimin would best describe them as. He has a bulbous nose but its so endearing and it suits him perfectly that Jimin just melts a little on the inside. His upper lip is thin but has an adorable cupid’s bow and his bottom lip is pouty and full. And Jimin’s already swooning when he notices a beauty mark right under his lip. His face is youthful and innocent (especially with those eyes). But then Jimin’s eyes are starting to stray from his face and dear lord... he has piercings. His ears are covered in silver studs and earrings and jesus is that hot

Jimin’s eyes travel lower and he’s wearing an oversized thick blue stripped shirt but what makes Jimin breath a little faster is the fact that the first two buttons are undone and revealing some of his subtle tanned skin

His arms are lean from what he can make of the big sleeves covering them but if the veins on his arms are anything to go by... the man is fit. And further down does Jimin’s eyes travel and he audibly gulps. Cause this guys striped shirt is tucked into some high waisted pants and it just shows how long his legs are... and it’s not only that but his ThIgHs oML

The pants he’s wearing are barley able to contain all the muscle, the man is THICC. Those are some thunder thighs if Jimin’s ever seen them. And oh shit, Jimin’s drooling, yep he’s drooling

But when Jimin looks back up, wide and awed doe eyes are staring right back at him and oh shit I think my heart just stopped. Because this handsome man is walking over to Jimin and Jimin’s having a meltdown cause ohh noooo he’s hot. The handsome stranger stops right in front of him and he’s got a lovely blush darkening by the second and if Jimin isn’t wrong the man’s taking a deep breath while scratching his neck when suddenly he says in a quiet bashful sort of whisper “Are you from Tennessee? Because you’re the only ten I see.”

And Jimin just stands there barbecue sauce on his titties, mouth and eyes wide open. A heavy blush starting from his neck to his ears. And his eyes start tearing up and before he knows it he’s gasping for air and clutching his stomach while tears roll down his cheeks, he’s laughing so hard. And the man in front is giving him a dazzling smile, face all scrunched up, eyes crinkled but still twinkling and his teeth are showing. His smile... he’s like a bunny - teeth poking out. And that manages to calm Jimin down... and reality dawns upon him after hearing the pickup line and he says

“Jungkook?”

And Jimin thought before that Jungkook was smiling but now he’s BEAMING and laughing with quick nods of his head. And there Jimin and Jungkook are... both standing in the middle of the empty escape room lounge just grinning at each other

Yoongi’s locking the place up after 3 more extra hours of just everybody hanging out. Namjoon had hit it up quite nicely with Seokjin. And Hoseok had a great time with a bickering Taehyung and Yoongi while Jungkook and Jimin were in their own little world of soft spoken cheesy pick up lines, giggles, shy smiles, and full body laughs

But now it’s time to leave cause boss would have their heads if he knew they hadn’t closed up immediately and instead hung out with people in there. So everyone’s parting ways, exchanging phone numbers and goodbyes

Yoongi mentions trying out a new restaurant two blocks away next week, and everyone’s agreeing and setting up a time. But Jungkook and Jimin are too busy gazing up at each other, procrastinating the inevitable separation. Hoseok yells to Jimin it’s time to go, and the groups already a good block in front of them walking towards their cars in the parking lot. Jungkook breaks the silence by saying a dejected “Well, my buildings the other way so I guess you should probably go back” And he’s stepping back when Jimin takes one step forward into Jungkook’s space again and takes a hold of his sleeve. Jungkook seems a little shocked by the action with his wide eyes and parted lips that Jimin oh so desperately wants to smooch.

And then Jimin’s saying “I seem to have lost my phone number. Can I have yours?” And Jimin fears that maybe it’s too much, maybe he’s insinuating something Jungkook doesn’t want. And it doesn’t help that Jungkook is taking a while to react... but then Jungkook starts smiling -his bunny smile - and he’s bending down. And before Jimin knows, Jungkook is capturing his lips with his own. Jungkook’s lips are feather light on Jimin’s, giving him room to step back

It’s a soft caress of Jungkook’s lips with Jimin’s own. But then Jimin gets on his tippy toes and adds more pressure to their lips, and he’s smiling too

Now Jungkook can feel just how full and plush Jimin’s lips are. And Jimin can feel Jungkook’s lips softly press a kiss onto his top lip and slid back down to press onto both. Jungkook reaches a hand and cups Jimin’s cheek while his thumb smoothes over the surface of his cheekbone and his arm is wrapping around Jimin’s waist and bringing him a bit closer

Jimin is enthusiastic and jumps up a little to wrap his arms around Jungkook’s neck and get closer. But during the process their lips detach from one another. And Jungkook’s separating with furrowed brows and a worried gaze. Jimin’s confused by Jungkook’s reaction...

But then Jungkook is bombarding him with questions and apologies “Hyung, I’m so sorry-Did I hurt you?!”“I over stepped, I misread everything- oh god, I’m so sorry. I didn’t even ask if you wanted to... I”

Jimin cuts him off with a sad “What are you talking about?” and with a disappointed sigh he says “I should have known you didn’t want to kiss me” And now Jungkook’s confused

“NO!” He basically shouts because he can’t stand the sad frown and downcast eyes Jimin has on his face right now.

Jungkook’s shout surprises Jimin who jumps a little “I.. um, I mean um *inhale* I did want to kiss you but you pulled away I thought I did something wrong.” “I’m sorry” Jungkook murmurs. And Jimin’s once again shocked as he scrambles to say “No! I didn’t pull away, w-well I did but I didn’t mean to I- I was jumping up to get closer but instead I ended up pulling away..” and his voice dies out in the end cause god this is embarrassing. He was having this amazing sweet, charming, hot af guy kiss him and he ends up fucking it up...

Jimin hadn’t even realized he was looking down until he felt Jungkook’s hand come up to his chin and lift gently to meet his gaze.

Jungkook’s eyes are earnest when he says “Really? Are you sure, c-cause I mean I would totally understand why you w-wouldn’t want to kiss me” And then Jimin is standing once again on his tip toes and pecking Jungkook’s lips lovingly

“I’m sorry I ruined it, I really did want to kiss you. I got excited and jumped but instead I just pulled away” and Jimin’s pouting

Jungkook just stares for a second cause honestly how can this gorgeous man in-front of him like him, but as he lets Jimin’s words sink in his bunny smile is back in place and Jimin thinks it’s his favorite thing in the world

Now this time, Jimin’s hands are circled around Jungkook’s neck. Jungkook’s hands are both holding onto Jimin’s hips. And they both lean in. This time there’s more pressure from the get go, and Jungkook tilts his head to nibble on Jimin’s lower lip which as Jimin releasing a soft whimper. And Jimin just presses harder and kisses Jungkook breathless. Jungkook’s tongue is starting to poke out, lazily running over Jimin’s top and bottom lip when all of a sudden they hear a chorus of “SMOOCHIE SMOOCHIE SOMEONE’S IN LOVEEEE” followed by cackles. And as Jungkook and Jimin break apart with fuller and redder lips and a scarlet blush adorning their cheeks... their friends are pointing fingers and laughing at them

Jungkook now has a scowl on his face, meanwhile Jimin just groans and hides his face in Jungkook’s neck

Bonus:

“Okay but this time we really have to go Jimin”

“I’m coming Hobi, calm your horses” Jimin turns back towards Jungkook who now has just one hand resting on his waist, and who is staring at him with a fond expression

“Why are you looking at me like that?” - Jimin

“I guess there must be something wrong with my eyes... ‘cause I can’t take them off you.” Jungkook says with a teasing voice, but the awe is still set in his eyes. And Jimin explodes into a fit of full body giggles and squeaks

In the back they can hear the “uGh’s” and groans from their friends

But Jungkook nor Jimin care anymore. So Jungkook goes ahead and steals another kiss right there.
