do i know you?
pairing: mark tuan x reader
genre: smut, (kinda fluff maybe?)
warnings: explicit sex, dirty talk, cursing
word count: 7k+
summary: you never thought in a million years you would meet your favorite idol on a night out, so then why do you pretend not to know who he is?
a/n: this is my first piece of smut and it’s kind of terrible but I TRIED YOU UNHOLY HEATHENS!!!!!!
The dark club should have made you feel at home. You weren’t a stranger to going out and dancing (and/or drinking the night away), but for some reason you felt a little more regretful being out. Being dragged into the city on a Thursday night at nearly one in the morning sounded like a good idea at first, but as you watched your friend on the dance floor you thought crawling into bed with a glass of wine and watching YouTube sounded like the ideal end to a night. Maybe you were getting too old for this.
Taking a sip of what had to be your second double vodka cranberry, you wondered if the bartender had scammed you. The flow of alcohol you usually experienced hadn’t kicked in and the numbness it brought was missing. You sighed and placed the drink down on the bar deciding to give up on alcohol for the rest of the night. It seemed like it just wasn’t going to be that kind of night.
“Come on!” You heard your friend shout at you, waving her hands crazily in efforts to get you to join her on the floor. You contemplated waving her off and sticking at the bar, checking your phone incessantly every minute to see the time change – wondering if this was the minute, you’d be able to go home.
But looking at your friend have such a fun time on the dance floor you couldn’t help but smile and feel yourself move towards her in the crowd.
“Ah! Finally!” she yelled over the music as you joined and put her hands out towards you in an attempt to spin you. You grabbed her hand and spun around the dance floor laughing for the first time all night. Some track that had been on your spring playlist began playing and it occurred to you that maybe this wasn’t the worst thing in the world.
“See they knew you were coming!” Your friend said knowing she recognized the song from you. The two of you danced without stopping for at least 5 songs, and you felt the need to go back to the bar and sip on something. Whether that be water to catch your breath, or to maybe try and see if the alcohol would finally hit you – otherwise that bartender really was scamming you.
Telling your friend about your plan to retreat to the bar, she nodded her head, signaling her willingness to follow. At the bar you order another drink, making sure to give the bartender eyes that say don’t fuck with me dude and turn to your friend.
“Damn, I can’t believe it’s already 3:30… Do you think we should go soon?” She asked.
Even though you had a fun time dancing – and your intoxication being at a record low while doing so – you still had the feeling that going home might just be for the best, especially as you watched the bartender tip the liquor bottle into your drink for .0001 second.
“What time does this place close?” You asked.
She shrugs, “I don’t know, like… 6?”
Yeah… no way you were doing the all night till the morning thing today.
Turning your head to the right side of the bar you did a double take as if you’d seen a ghost. No way, you thought, you had to be dreaming. Noticing your sudden silence, your friend placed her hand on your shoulder, “What? Are you okay?”
You tore your gaze away from the figure situated at the end of the bar, you looked at her unsure if you’d be able to get a full sentence out. “I-I-”
“You what?” Taking a deep breath in, you tried to collect yourself, unable to believe the words coming from your mouth, “Mark Tuan is here.”
She shifted her eyes to the side as if trying to reach the back of her memory to see if she knew a Mark Tuan and looked back to you when she came back with nothing, “Do we go to school with him?”
You shook your head quickly and said his name again, but slowly, “Mark Tuan.”
Her eyes widened in shock, realizing the significance of the name, “What? What’s he doing here?”
“Do you think if I really knew I would be here having a panic attack?”
She looked to where he stood at the end of the bar, laughing at something someone in his group of friends said and running his hands through his hair carelessly. It almost felt as though he did it in slow motion, for everyone to take notice of him or in your opinion for you to torturously want him.
You had never really been a fan of K-pop idols before, but there was something about Got7 and specifically Mark that made you fall in love. Spending hours listening to their music, watching videos of them and waking up early to buy concert tickets, but you never in a million years thought that you would be sat at the same bar in the same club with Mark fucking Tuan. That was something fangirls only dreamed about and here you were living it.
“You have to talk to him.” You turned to your friend in shock and squinted your eyes at her in disbelief, “Um excuse me?”
“When does this ever happen? I know you and if you don’t talk to him, you’re going to regret it later.”
Shaking your head, you turned away from her and faced the bar, “No let’s just go home… I don’t want to bother him, I’m sure he just wants a chill night without any crazy fans,” you took a sip from your new drink, which still didn’t take anything like alcohol, “and besides I’m definitely not drunk enough to be confident to go over there, even if I wanted to.”
There was a pause as you waited for your friend to respond, but nothing except silence came from her side of the bar. You turned to look at her once again, noticing she faced Mark and his group of friends whose gazes were fixed on you.
“I don’t know… but something tells me he might want to.”
For just a moment you locked eyes with Mark and felt your heart beat out of your chest. It felt like everything you’d ever heard about love at first sight, but of course you were in love at first sight – this guy had been the starring role in all of your fantasies and dreams for the last few years. To him you were a stranger who was looking at him for an uncomfortably long amount of time and probably wanted to get away from immediately.
Then it happened. From the other side of the bar, he gave you that smile that you had come to know and love. The smile that did things only that smile could do. You dropped your gaze from him and looked down at the floor in a panic.
What the fuck does this mean? you thought to yourself. It must have been a mistake, certainly the Mark Tuan was not looking at you, and there’s no way he gave you the smile. You were just thinking about going home for godssake, Mark Tuan can’t be giving you the smile, just throwing it out there like a free pamphlet at a protest.
“What do we do?” Your friend asked.
Still looking at the floor, in the fear that you might get caught in Mark’s trance once again, you answered her. “What the fuck do you mean what should we do? We… We go get our coats from coat check and leave.”
She snorted at you, “You do realize that in order to go get our coats we have to pass right by him and his friends.” At this, you nod at her thoughtfully, “you’re right. So, I’ll just go wait outside while you get our coa-”
“Ma’am?” You’re interrupted by your bartender – the one that didn’t want you to have a fun night. Even though he seems to have a personal vendetta against you, you found yourself grateful that you had somewhere else to look that wasn’t the floor and especially not Mark Tuan.
“Um, yes?” You asked looking up at him. “This is from the gentleman at the end of the bar,” he said sliding you over another double vodka cranberry.
You stared at the drink speechless and look to the “gentleman at the end of the bar,” expecting it to be some creepy guy and not Mark Tuan, but instead as you glanced to your right you found a bright eyed Mark smiling at you and raising his own glass slightly in the air.
You couldn’t believe that Mark had sent you a drink and not a note that said “stop staring and fuck off already,” or something to that extent. Not only that, but it had been the exact drink you had been having all night… Was it because he noticed? Watched you? No there was no way, he probably just had asked the bartender… the bartender that seemed to hate you.
“Well?” Your friend asked you, breaking you out of your thoughts “You gonna have the drink sent to you by a K-Pop idol or what?” Nodding to her, but mostly yourself, you lifted up the drink and smiled at Mark, taking a sip.
This one actually tasted like it had two shots of vodka.
Mark turned to one of his friends and said something, they nod at him and you see him place his drink down on the counter. Was he leaving already?
But then your heart began to immediately beat out of your chest as you realized what he was doing. He was coming over.
As he approached you, you were afraid that you were going to go into cardiac arrest before he even made it over to you. You felt your friend’s hand on your wrist in an effort to relax you and place you at ease, “I’m going to go back to dance for a bit. Text me and let me know if you end up leaving,” she said throwing you a knowing wink. Instantly, you shake your head at her in protest asking her to stay and wondering why she thought you were going to end up leaving with Mark Tuan.
But just like that she’s gone and you face forward to be met with Mark. Well… it was now or never.
“Hi.”
“Um H-hi,” you practically stuttered.
“How’s the drink?” He asked, glancing down at the drink he sent you.
You shrugged in a nervous way, “Oh you know… It’s good.”
Mark’s eyebrows raised, “just good?” You found your eyes glancing down at the floor, unsure if you could have direct eye contact with him those close without blushing and embarrassing yourself.
“I mean it’s pretty good,” you replied, deciding you had to look back at him. You couldn’t have a conversation with your eyes glued on the sticky floor of a nightclub.
He placed a hand on his chest in relief, “oh thank god. I saw the look on your face with the last three drinks you had and I thought that I might as well give it a try.”
Your eyes widened, “o-oh um yeah… I’m just pretty sure the bartender hates me and wasn’t putting the full shots in the drink. With the amount of alcohol, I’ve supposedly had tonight I should be in the hospital and not standing here talking to you.”
He chuckled at the comment, “well I’m glad.”
“Glad that I’m not in the hospital?”
“Glad that you’re here talking to me,” he replied giving you a half smirk that made your stomach drop.
You cleared your throat, “Yeah well… I’m a 10/10 good hang you know…” You couldn’t believe what you were saying? A 10/10 good hang? Was that supposed to make him think you were cool? Worth talking to? It seemed like it was going to make him turn around and head in the opposite direction.
He nodded his head at you in response, “Yeah, no I could totally tell by your jelly shoes,” he glanced down at your shoes and you feel your face turn red.
“I-I’m just not a huge heels girl and I don’t know I wasn’t trying to be quirky or anything but I’ve had these since I was in high school and they’re broken in really well so I can go a whole night in them and my feet won’t hurt or anyth-” You cut yourself off mid ramble. Clearly Mark Tuan didn’t want to hear about your jelly shoes. Why the fuck were you being so weird?
“Sorry,” You said to him, taking another sip of your drink out of nervous habit.
“No, it’s okay. It was cute. To be honest with you, I don’t really get to hear monologues about jelly shoes being broken in that often, so it was refreshing.” He grinned at you in a teasing demeanor.
Cute?
He looked at for you for a moment, smiling with his eyes glancing down at your lips ever so often. The silence between the two of you felt as though it had a lot of weight to it – not in an awkward way, but it made you uneasy in a way that you couldn’t identify. It made you want to break the silence any way you could.
“U-Um so what do you do?” His eyes glanced from your lips back to your eyes. When his eyebrows furrowed in confusion, it begins to register to you what exactly you had just asked him.
“What do you mean?” He asked.
“Uh like what do you do as a job? Or um… are you a student?”
Obviously, you knew what he did, you knew who he was, so you had no clue as to why you were pretending like you didn’t know.
“You don’t know?” He asked cocking his head to the side.
“Sorry… I don’t know. Do I know you?”
Well… it was too late to go back now.
A half smile appeared on Mark’s face and it makes you think maybe this is what he wanted – someone who doesn’t know him and what he does or at least pretends not to. “No, you don’t… Sorry, I thought maybe you- never mind, it’s not important,” he pursed his lips in thought, “I just work in music.”
You nodded at him, not wanting to press anymore and dig yourself into a deeper hole.
“What do you do?” He asked taking a step closer.
He’s close enough to you now that you can smell his cologne, and it practically makes your legs go weak. Getting lost in his smell and his gaze on you, you almost didn’t respond.
“I’m just a grad student. Simple as that,” you replied, shrugging.
He leaned up against the bar to get comfortable, still within cologne smelling distance, “that sounds pretty interesting to me,” he pauses and continues, “I’m Mark by the way… I almost forgot that part.” He thrusts his hand forward and you just stare at it.
“You know usually you would tell me your name and shake my hand.”
You shook your head at yourself, “right duh of course,” you grabbed his hand and tell him your name. The way he repeats it gives you goosebumps and you could feel it go straight to your core.
It makes you want to hear more from him, to hear everything from him.
Suddenly you felt the drink Mark had sent you go straight to your head, the confidence that alcohol brought you surging through your veins, “do you want to go dance?” You asked him.
He smiled brightly, “I thought you’d never ask… Do you mind?” He asked gesturing to your drink. Nodding at him to show approval, he takes your drink and finishes it with one final gulp, while placing it on the bar counter.
Grabbing Mark’s hand, you lead him to the dance floor. At first, he starts dancing in an effort to make you laugh and you do the same, throwing out dance combos that you probably learned when you were thirteen. Mark almost falls over at your attempt to do some dance you saw on TikTok – to the complete wrong song. Just as you were about to show him another, you turned your back to him and a slower, more sensual song came on.
It suddenly felt weird to continue with your goofy dance moves to a song like this, so you just let your body follow the rhythm and beat of the song playing, eyes closed. After a moment, you felt hands on your hips, Mark slowly pulling you closer to him as if testing the waters until you’re tentatively pressed against his front.
“Is this okay?” He asked, lips brushing your ear which each word. Eyes still closed, you hum in response and approval. With this you feel his hands guide your hips as you move yourself closer to him. Pressing your back further into Mark, you feel his hardness pressed up against you. Grinding yourself on him even more, you hear a soft groan come from Mark’s lips and you feel your lower body twitch with a want you hadn’t felt in a long time.
He places slight pressure on your hip and turns you around to face him, the glint in his eyes and smirk on his face apparent even under the harsh lighting of the club.
Mark’s hand cups your face and he caresses his thumb along your cheek gently. The way he looks at you is a gaze that’s filled with lust and passion, but you also sense a thoughtfulness behind it. Almost as though he’s memorizing every inch of your face so he can think back to it again and again, even after whatever happens between the two of you tonight.
His hand on your hip goes further around your waist and he brings you close until your bodies are flush with one another. “You are so fucking beautiful,” he murmured, eyes fluttering closed. His head tilted to the side and he leans forward towards you. Wetting your lips in anticipation, you follow his lead.
Mark’s lips brush against yours gently at first and you hope he can’t hear how fast your heart is beating through your chest at just the slightest contact. His lips part slightly and you feel his tongue slide across your bottom lip. Granting him entrance, he deepens the kiss, causing you to wrap your arms around his neck, gently threading your fingers through the hair at his nape.
You hear Mark let out another soft groan at your playful tugging of his hair, sending a chill down your spine. He moves the hand circled around your waist lower, until it sits just above your ass and you can’t help but smirk into the kiss which he follows.
He breaks apart from you and you’re left breathless, whining at the loss of the feeling of his soft lips on yours. “Are we on the same page?” He breathes out in a deep, husky tone.
Caught up in the way he looks at you and the fact that you just had the best kiss in your entire life, you don’t stop yourself from saying the words that come out of your mouth, “I don’t live too far from here.”
“Then what are we waiting for princess?”
The pet name sets you into motion as you grab Mark’s hand and he follows you outside of his club. Him calling you both an Uber and the 15-minute ride to your place with Mark’s hands all over you in the car passes by in a blur as your focus increases to the feeling between your legs that grows with every touch he gives you. Somehow in the car, you managed to type out an incoherent message to your friend about heading home and asking her if she could grab your jacket from the coat check since you had to leave “in a rush.”
By the time you reached your apartment you felt as though you couldn’t even make it to the elevator in your building by the way Mark kept whispering dirty words and promises about what he was going to do to you in your ear.
Reaching the front door you desperately searched your bag for the keys, glancing up at Mark ever so often who had another sly smirk plastered on his face and biting his lip seductively. Somehow that makes the search for your keys even more frantic and it feels like decades before you finally find them at the bottom, although only mere seconds had passed. You turned the key to your apartment and let Mark go through first.
With the shut of your front door, you felt yourself being pushed back against the wall of your living room, Mark’s lips hungrily on yours. You let your hands drift up and rake themselves through his freshly dyed dark hair.
“I saw you looking at me and I knew you wanted me to fuck you. Is that what you want? Tell me that’s what you want.”
You moaned at his words as he ran his hands up and down your thighs, getting too close to where you needed him the most. You felt yourself lost in everything he was and is and couldn’t manage to respond with words, instead you bucked your hips forward into his as an attempt to show him how much you needed him.
He shook his head, “No, no, no. If you want me, tell me. A good girl always uses her words.”
It felt like you couldn’t breathe, like you had lost all the air and words in your body. You couldn’t be this infatuated with someone and wanted something so much that you forgot all of your basic vocabulary.
With a slip of his right hand under your dress you suddenly had an awakening, “Yes! Mark, I need you. I want you, please.”
He wouldn’t let it end there, “please what? I’m going to need specifics.”
“Please just fuck me already!”
“We have an impatient girl, don’t we? Well I’m just going to have to teach you how to wait.”
Groaning, you didn’t know how much waiting you would be able to take at this point. You could feel yourself break just from his touch under your dress, it was hard to imagine how long you would be able to deal with his teasing.
His hand crept to the top of your panties and slowly trailed his fingertips along your slit above the thin fabric. He hums to himself in satisfaction as he feels the dampness that has gathered near your core, “I haven’t even done anything, and you’ve already soaked your panties. What is it? My words? My voice? What is it that you love so much that you could cum without being touched?” Mark continues to slide his fingers down your sensitive folds, suddenly pushing his digit beneath the wet fabric. Sucking in a deep breath you shut your eyes tightly and suddenly feel his fingers grow motionless and stagnant.
Mark clicks his tongue in a disapproving manner, “I want you to look up at me when I open you up for the first time.” With his other hand, he takes your chin and tilts it towards him, causing you to obey him and position your eyes onto his.
“That’s my girl,” he coos.
With his wish granted, you feel his fingers begin to move again, his thumb dipping into your slit with his index finger shifted upwards to your clit. Adding light pressure, he circled around your sensitive nub, shifting from left to right and causing you to bite back a moan, not wanting to let him know exactly the kind of effect he was causing you when he had only just begun. But with the dampness that had already been pooling between your legs and the supposed mess in your panties, it was likely he already knew.
Completely pushing your underwear to the side, you felt him insert one of his digits into you, a groan coming from both of you. “You’re so fucking tight; I can’t imagine how you’re going to feel around my cock.” Nothing could phase you, not even the overwhelming sound of your wetness as Mark pushed himself in and out due to the bliss of finally having some part of him inside of you. You thought you were going to break when Mark suddenly added a second finger, pumping them inside of you at a faster pace and curling them to hit just the right spot.
“M-Mark please don’t stop.” You gasped, barely believing you had the capacity to get a functional sentence out.
At your request, he picks up his speed, repositioning his thumb back on your clit. You felt yourself pulse and tighten around Mark’s fingers, getting closer to the edge and closer to letting yourself go. “So fucking tight,” Mark mumbled as you shut your eyes tightly and dropped your head back against the wall, crying out in pleasure as you felt yourself begin to combust. Sensing your approaching orgasm, his movements stilled and his thumb on your clit draws back. Mark slips his fingers out of you, leaving a feeling of emptiness that you detest, wanting nothing more than to have him back inside of you bringing you to the edge and making you see stars. You bring your head forward from the wall to look at him, a smirk plastered on his face as he dips his fingers into his mouth to taste you. The sight alone is almost enough to make up for your loss of impending orgasm.
“My good girl has to wait.”
In the past you had found yourself suddenly hating Mark Tuan for a lot of different reasons. For ruining you with his different hairstyles and colors, wearing undeniably good-looking outfits to the airport and being generally attractive in everything he says or does. But you never thought that him denying you an orgasm would be added to that list.
Your legs feel weak from the release that never came, but you somehow managed to push yourself off of the wall and switch places with Mark to lean against the couch in a moment to catch your breath.
“How about I fill you up somewhere else? Would you like that?”
Hearing his words, the weakness in your body is forgotten and you immediately dropped to your knees. For a moment, you wondered how desperate you must look to him, being so eager to have him in your mouth. The thought soon disappeared from your mind as he unzipped his pants, realizing for the first time just how tight they looked. You felt your arousal growing more at the thought that you had been the one to cause the tightness.
Mark unbuttoned his jeans and pushed them down his legs along with his underwear, releasing his cock. You had to admit as much as you loved the feeling that a penis gave you, you had always thought they were strange looking and in the past most of the dicks you’ve been met with were underwhelming in size and girth, but once again Mark Tuan was in a different league. His cock was actually pretty. You almost couldn’t believe how perfect it was and the way your stomach churned at how it was going to fit inside you later. Somehow it wasn’t too small or too big – but just perfect. Fuck, did this guy have anything imperfect about him?
Mark held his cock from the base and rubbed the tip against your lips.
“Open your mouth.”
Obeying his command, you open your mouth for him as he guided the head of his cock into your mouth. Closing your mouth around the head, you suck lightly as he watched you take him in with hungry eyes. You swirled your tongue around the head of his cock and slide your tongue along his length, teasingly. Finding your mouth back to his tip, you gently suck the head and move your hands up and down the shaft.
“Such a needy slut for me, aren’t you?”
You moaned at his choice of words and he let out a chuckle at your reaction, “you like that, don’t you? Like it when I call you what you are? A needy slut.” This only encouraged you to take more of him in your mouth and to begin to dip your head up and down wanting nothing more than to feel him at the back of your throat and to see him lose control the same way you did. As you continued, you could feel him move his hips forwards, involuntarily thrusting himself further into your mouth. You could feel your eyes beginning to water and your lips slick with spit and Mark’s precum, feeling yourself grow wetter in between your thighs thinking of how he was going to fill you up.
Groaning, you felt Mark fist his hands in your hair, “Fuck… you’re doing so good for me princess. Taking me so well and being such a good girl.” Continuing bobbing your head up and down, you felt him twitch inside your mouth as you reached the base of his cock. Feeling as though he was close to releasing himself, your remove your hands from his thighs and move them to his balls, wanting nothing more than to taste him and have him tell you how good you were for swallowing him so easily.
Suddenly, he pulled himself out of your mouth completely, causing you to look up at him through your lashes and reach out for him.
He shakes his head, “As much as I would love to cum inside that pretty mouth of yours, I need to be inside you.” He pauses, as if considering something and places his hand on top of your head, gently stroking your hair, “Be honest. You knew who I was when I came over to you. You knew who I was, and you’ve been dreaming about fucking me.”
For the first time of the night you feel embarrassed. It wasn’t your whimpers and moans for him or even your eagerness to get on your knees but lying to him that had you wanting to disappear.
He continues to stroke your hair, comforting you as you look up at him when he speaks again, “Well let me be honest with you, from the moment I came into the club I’ve been thinking about how tight you’d feel around me. How well I would stretch you and what kind of noises you’d make. Do you want me to do that for you? Do you want to feel me inside of you?”
You nod your head vigorously as you get up from your knees and wipe the spit running down your chin with the back of your hand.
Grabbing his hand, you led him down the hallway from the living room, leaving his discarded pants and underwear into your bedroom, not wanting to wait another second for him to be inside of you.
As soon as you’re inside, you felt Mark sliding the straps of your dress off your bare shoulders, grateful you didn’t wear a bra tonight since it would have become just another barrier separating you from him.
He makes it his task to kiss every piece of new skin that’s revealed on your body as he peels the dress down off of you. You find yourself with closed eyes once again, and it feels like every square inch of you is radiating a new kind of sensitivity.
“Lay back princess,” Mark said as soon as your dress is off.
Laying back onto your bed, you suddenly had a moment for your brain to catch up with your body. You were laying on your bed, in just your panties, about to be completely and utterly wrecked by Mark Tuan. And to think a few hours earlier you wanted to be in bed watching videos of him.
Looking at you on the bed, Mark licked his lips, “you look so beautiful princess. Just waiting for me to give you want you want. Have you thought about this before?” You nodded your head in response, but it wasn’t enough for him.
“What was that?”
He wanted to hear you say it, “Yes Mark. I-I’ve touched myself thinking about this so many times.” He closes his eyes tightly and groans, “I’m going to give you what you want. What we both want.”
It’s like his words are magic, anything he said went right to your core and made you feel like you were getting more soaked with every syllable that left his mouth. You had always dreamed about what he would be like in bed – what he would say and what noises he would make. And you had to admit at moments during tonight you found it hard to believe that the sweet, shy and quiet boy you knew from your favorite idol group could utter such words to you, but you had always hoped he had this side to him. Who knew you’d find out that you were right?
You hear Mark crinkling the condom packet and throwing it somewhere on the floor as he rolls it onto his length. Your instinct was to sit up and reach for him in an effort to help, but he shook his head.
“Relax princess, I’m doing all the work now. I’m going to make you feel so good and give you what you’ve been waiting on for so long.”
Laying back, you once again obey him and wait in anticipation. Part of you felt like you should be embarrassed for how quickly you were able to trust him and follow his every wish without really knowing him, but all you really felt was turned on by the notion.
“Mark. Please fuck me.”
He chuckled, and you felt the weight shift on the bed as he climbed on top of you, his lips quick to find yours, tongue swiping across your lower lip before he sinks his teeth into it. At this point kissing Mark felt like a second nature to you, and you couldn’t believe you had gone this long without kissing him. His hand cups your face gently and breaks away for a moment, just long enough to give you a slow, sultry smirk. He reattaches your lips with his, and you feel his freehand move down your body, playing with your breasts briefly, pinching your nipples before traveling lower. You feel his hand back at your core, but this time gently pulling down your panties which have become useless at this point due to how soaked they are. He only manages to get them halfway down your legs, and you help him by moving your legs up to completely rid your body of them.
Mark breaks away from you and just looks at you once again, as if in complete disbelief, which leads to you also looking at him in disbelief. You both couldn’t believe this was happening.
He pulled his shirt over his head and gives you another peck, “Ready for me?”
“Yes,” you wiggled your hips to show him how ready you were for him to finally fill you up.
You felt his body slip between your open legs, the tip of his erection brushing against your entrance and somehow that alone made a tightness in your lower belly appear. He rubbed himself against your entrance and you felt your eyes shut tightly, a whimper instinctively leaving your mouth with the built-up sensitivity you had from your denial.
Mark noticed this and decided to edge you on further, “Oh is this all you want?”
He continued rubbing his length up and down your slit and you groan in pleasure, but also annoyance at his continual teasing, “No. Mark please. I want more. I need more!”
At your words, he nudged himself forward just a little bit, but not enough and whine once again, trying to buck your hips up, but he holds them down.
“I thought you said all I had to do was relax,” you whined, practically wanting to cry.
Mark smiled at you, “I know. I know. My good girl’s been so patient.”
Mark thrusts forward, slow but without pause, stretching you open and giving you time to adjust to him. When he bottoms out, fully inside of you, you feel as though you could scream at how good it felt. How good it felt just having him there, inside of you and filling you up so completely. You could feel your body tighten and clench around him as if giving him the welcome to move.
“How does it feel?”
“It feels so so good. P-Please Mark, I need you to move.”
“Anything my good girl wants. It’s all yours princess,” he murmured.
He draws his hips back only to slam into you hard and fast, hitting deep inside of you. You moaned instantly at the feeling, and the noise only urged Mark to go faster, harder and deeper.
“You’re so tight, princess,” he groaned out, his eyes focusing on where your bodies met. He pulls back slowly, and continues to thrust in hard causing you to cry out. He leans down further onto you and his head falls into the crook of your neck, his teeth pulling and sucking at your neck, making you weak.
He stops his assault on your neck and slows his thrusting for a moment, and it makes you wonder if he suddenly reconsidered this whole thing – mid-fucking. He pulls out of you altogether and you feel yourself clench around nothing, whining at the loss of him inside of you. Looking back up at him he smiled, moving your body to flip you onto your stomach, then placing you up on your hands and knees.
“You..” you begin to say, but your words are completely lost when you feel Mark re-enter you at a new angle that had him reaching even deeper inside of you then before. He began picking up his original pace once again, hitting that spot every single time, making you lose all thoughts and common sense. The head of his cock hitting the sweet spot inside of you over and over again causes you to scream out multiple curses.
His chest leans against your back until his mouth is near your ear and you get chills down your spine, “Fuck, you feel so good princess. Squeezing me so tight, mmh…” His words are murmured into your skin, interrupted by kisses placed onto your shoulder in between words.
“Like this pussy was made just for me. My good girl made just for me, right?”
You could feel your body tensing, the orgasm starting at the pit of your stomach and spreading throughout your limbs.
“Right?” He asked again with a groan, slamming into you from behind even harder as he feels you clench even more around him.
“Y-Yes Mark. Just for you! Only you!”
“You’re so close, I can feel it,” he said practically breathlessly, making it clear his high was beginning to reach him too.
He brings his hand that isn’t situated on your hip, around to your front and lowers it between your legs to find your clit. The tips of his fingers tease your clit, in a way that felt like he knew exactly what would bring you even closer to the edge. The way your pussy clenched around his cock was evidence enough, “cum for me princess, cum all over my cock.”
You weren’t sure if it was his words or his hand on your clit or his continual and deep thrusting into you that finally brought your body over the edge and made you feel as though you had been hit by a truck. Orgasm washing over you as your hips began to buck and incoherent words left your mouth as you released around him.
Praises of how pretty you looked and what a good girl you were began to fall from Mark’s lips as his thrusts grew slower and sloppier, a sign that he was close as well. You clenched yourself around him and he moans at the feeling, and with one final push you fell the warmth of his cum spilling inside the condom.
He breathes heavily and stays inside you for a moment, almost wanting to relish in the moment, but he soon pulls out to remove the condom from his length, tying it and throwing it in the trash next to your bed.
You can’t remember the last time you felt this good, during or post sex. The euphoric feeling that came with it almost made you forget how you would probably never see Mark after tonight. You would just become another one of the many girls he likely sleeps with. You didn’t want to think that this was a constant thing he did, but you also had to be honest with yourself… He was a 26-year-old guy with fame… this must be an every night kind of thing.
Now that… that made your stomach churn.
Lost in your thoughts, you felt Mark place a kiss on your shoulder with a shy smile, warming your heart. He places his arm around you and you both lay in bed content from your post-sex high. The silence somehow isn’t awkward, as you expected it to usually be after a one-night stand, but instead it’s more comforting as if you actually had known Mark all these years.
Mark ends up breaking the silence first, “sorry if that was- too much.” You turned to him confused, “what do you mean?”
He looked away nervously, “the stuff I said.” Was he kidding?
“Mark no way... I liked it... In fact I really fucking liked it,” you said mumbling the last part.
Mark gives you another shy smile, “okay... I just don’t ever do this so I’m not sure what the standard is and I saw how much you liked it in the cab so I-”
“Now you’re the one rambling and I can see what you mean by it being cute.”
He rolled his eyes playfully, and kisses you on the top of your head. Another wave of comfortable silence washes over the two of you and you begin to think about something he had said earlier.
“Um… so what gave me away?” He looked down at you, confused.
You cleared your throat, “as a fan I mean…”
Mark laughed a bit and moved you closer to his chest, “the light stick on the bookshelf in the living room while you were blowing me.”
You groaned as if being a child scolded by a parent, “Ah of course.”
Rubbing your arm comfortingly, he smiled, “Don’t worry though, it’s better if the person I’m seeing is a fan. That way I don’t have to force you to come to stuff.”
You looked up at him in shock, “the person you’re seeing?”
“I want to keep seeing you… really want to keep seeing you. I hope that’s okay.”
You don’t say anything in response, but leant up to kiss him. Mark smiled into the kiss and you felt yourself break into one as well. Pulling away you situated yourself back to laying your head onto his chest as he engulfed you closer to him. Closing your eyes, you lay there in peaceful silence and felt more comfortable than you’ve been at home in your own bed for a long time.
“So… who’s your bias?”
“Obviously Jaebeom.”
Mark looked at you in disbelief and you snorted in response, pushing him playfully. “Some dork named Mark Tuan of course.”
He kissed the top of your head, and reached to stroke your hair, “Yeah, it better be.”

NIALL
August 16th, 2018
I didn't know exactly what woke me up but I just turned around in bed, wrapping my arm around Liv's body and moving a bit closer before trying to fall back asleep. Unfortunately, my phone started vibrating on my bedside table and I groaned when I realized I forgot to put it on mute before falling asleep. I couldn't remember how long how making love session had lasted and I couldn't even remember when I actually fell asleep.
I grimaced and sighed before turning around and reaching out for my phone, searching for it with my eyes closed. My fingers finally gripped it and I decided to sit up, rubbing my eyes as I tried to read the message I had received. I noticed Louis' face next to the message and I frowned. It's not that Louis never texted me but I was still surprised to see that notification, especially so early in the morning.
'Had fun last night? 😏' was all he had sent me along with a link.
I turned to look at Olivia who was still deeply asleep, laying on her stomach, with the covers just over her butt and I finally got out of bed slowly and gently, making sure I wouldn't wake her up. I walked to the kitchen, letting out a yawn as I passed my hand in my messy hair, and decided to make coffee as I clicked on the link.
I frowned when I recognize my living room and I saw myself get up from the couch, suddenly realizing it was my instagram live from the night before. i frowned more, wondering why Louis would send me the link since I couldn't remember saying or doing anything remotely bad but when Olivia's legs appeared in the screen, I realized my mistake. I had probably not stopped the live properly and my heart jumped in my chest, trying to remember what exactly we had said and done right after.
I heard my girlfriend tell me I was a good person and groaned low again when I heard myself ask her if it turned her on. No one could see us kiss since the laptop was placed on the coffee table and we were standing up but even if I was whispering, the words "I'm gonna miss you so much." could easily be heard before she replied that she was going to miss me more.
"Fucking hell..." I whispered as I blinked a few times, staring at the screen where we could clearly see me leading Liv in the hall as she stepped back, our lips attached to each other's as we made out.
She hit the wall and we both laughed as I let out a 'clumsy ass!' the way I always did before an 'I love you' escaped my lips. I felt my heart jump in my chest knowing so many people had actually witnessed something so personal and I swallowed before sighed and passing my hand in my hair again. We disappeared from the screen as the sound of a door being closed could be heard and I realized the video lasted 4 more minutes where nothing could be heard or seen. It had probably been about an hour since I started the livestream which was why it finally cut and I put my phone away and closed my eyes, wondering what exactly would be the repercussion of this video. I didn't want to go on twitter to read what people were saying but I knew that I would at least have to tell Liv about it.
I poured myself a cup of coffee and my lips curled slightly when I heard my girlfriend yelled from the bedroom.
"HOLY FUCKING SHIT!"
"Okay, she already knows." I whispered to myself, taking a sip from my hot drink and leaning against the counter.
It took her only a few seconds but I saw her appear in front of me, her hair even messier than mine and wearing only my shirt. I wanted to be stressed by all this but when I saw her, my lips curled in a fond smile.
"Did Louis send it to you too?" was the first thing that got out of her mouth and I just nodded before turning around and grabbing a mug to pour her some coffee too. "That's it? That's all I get? A nod?"
I took the time to add sugar and cream in her coffee and finally turned around again to hand it to her. She stared at me for a few seconds before her eyes fell on the mug and she sighed, taking it from my hands.
"Is there anything else to say?" I just asked, shrugging a shoulder. "I mean it's on the internet probably forever and honestly, we've been lucky, especially thinking about all the times we actually just fucked on the couch I mean, this video could be so much worse."
She looked away and her eyebrows raised before she grimaced. "Yea, I guess that's some way to see it." she let out before taking a sip. "I just... Gosh I don't know, I feel violated."
"I'm sorry. Honestly, I feel like shit too. It's my mistake and it's a very bad one." I admitted, raising my nose up. "I'm sorry, petal."
Her eyes met mine and she took a step closer, tilting her chin up to keep her gaze locked with mine. I stared at her back as she blinked a few times and her thin lips curled into a fond smile.
"You're forgiven."
I let my eyes roamed on her face, knowing it was a big thing to be so easily forgiven for something like that, especially that we were both aware she would get a lot of hate because of it. I bent down slightly and let my lips brush against hers before closing my eyes and bringing my hands up to her cheeks to deepen the kiss. When we stopped, she kept hers lips pressed against mine and sighed low.
"I'm gonna turn off my notifications on twitter for a while."
I raised my nose up in a grimace and groaned. "Me too." I kissed her lips again. "We can just ignore the comments together. I promise we'll be fine."
"I know." she whispered, her lips brushing against mine. "I trust you."
I felt something stir in my heart at her words, knowing I had lost her trust last year and I had worked hard to get it back. Still, despite my efforts, she didn't have to give it back to me again, but she had, and I couldn't explain how much it meant to me.
"Thank you, pet."

August 17th, 2018
I woke up around 10am, knowing I should have been up before. I had a concert on the same night and even if it was barely a two hours ride, we had to get there early to rehearse and make sure everything was in place. I was surprised to realize my girlfriend was not in bed anymore as I reached my arm on the mattress, my hand only meeting the cold sheets of the bed.
Quickly, I opened my eyes, blinking a few times, and stretched before getting up and dressing up. I walked to the kitchen only to see Liv and her lips curled when she saw me. I frowned, still surprised that she was already up, and took the mug she was handing me. I liked this habit that we had to prepare coffee if we were the first one to wake up. We had never talked about it but we just did it naturally and it was one of the many small things that made this whole relationship stronger.
"You're up early." I just pointed out before taking a sip.
"Will you miss me?" she asked quickly, ignoring my comment and making me frown.
"You know I will, petal, why are you asking?" I chuckled, taking a step closer and raising my eyebrows.
The truth was, I didn't want to leave without her but at the same time, I didn't want to force her to come with me. I knew following me on tour was not as fun as it may sound and I also knew she was busy. Of course, the fact that she was done with the season of her show gave her more free time, but the Olivia I discovered after being away from her for over a year was more independent than the Olivia I broke the heart to. She had also been right the last time we had a discussion about being away from each other. She had said it would bring us even closer and stronger together, and it had. We had spent a lot of time texting, facetiming and talking on the phone and I couldn't hide that I had missed her like crazy, but when we finally got to see each other again, it was intense. Besides, nothing would ever stop me from seeing her if at some point, it became too hard to be apart.
"How bad are you going to miss me?" she asked, once again ignoring my question.
"Pet, if I could, I'd put you in my bags and bring you with me."
This answer seemed to satisfy her as her lips curled more and she licked them before putting her mug away. I took a sip in mine but quickly, she grabbed it too and put it next to hers before taking my hand and pulling me with her.
"Are you bringing me in bed for a good fuck or something?"
This time, she laughed and the sound of it made me smile. She brought me to the hall and my lips parted when I saw her luggage in the lobby, laying near the door. I turned to her after a few seconds and she raised her eyebrows.
"If you don't want me to come with you, I'll definitely understand." she just said, shaking her head. "But I've had enough to be away from you. I miss you too much. What do you say?"
I felt my heart jump in my chest and let out a low chuckle before bending down slightly and wrapping my arms right under her butt to lift her up. She let out a short scream and a laugh, making my smile grow.
"Fuck yes!"
"Niall! Put me down! You're gonna hurt yourself!"
I did as she asked and as soon as she was back on her feet, I pushed her against the wall and looked down at her with a smile. She looked up and licked her lips before nibbling on her bottom one, her eyes never leaving mine and a smile still spread on her face.
"I didn't want to force you into coming with me, but fuck, I wanted to ask you to follow me again." I whispered, bending down slightly to brush my nose against hers. "Thank you for coming with me. It makes me so happy, darling."
"I was not sure if you still wanted me to come. I don't want to be annoying, or dependent. I just want to be with you."
My happy smile turned into a fond one. I didn't want her to ever believe she bothered or annoyed me. I was not the kid I used to be when I broke up with her, I didn't see things the same way, and I had learned.
"I always want to be with you. Your presence is a gift for me, I want you to always remember that, okay?" I murmured, feeling my lips brush against hers as I talked. "Don't ever try to be someone else. I love you best when you're just yourself."
She chuckled. "Did you just quote your own song?"
I sent her a smirk and shrugged, my body still pressed on hers. "It's my words, I can use them whenever I want. Besides, I wrote it for you, so."
"Okay but, can I really show you my heart? You promise you won't break it again?"
I rubbed my nose gently and slowly against hers again, making her eyelids flutter slightly.
"I swear." I breathed. "You're everything I want."

September 12th, 2018
When I walked back in the hotel room after the show, my lips curled when I noticed Liv coming out of the bathroom, her body wrapped in a fluffy white towel. She looked surprised for half a second and finally sent me a smile while tilting her head. I took a few steps closer and placed my hands on her hips but she quickly took a step back and shook her head.
"Nooo, nop!" she let out, making me raise her eyebrows. "You're all sweaty and shit. Take a shower first!"
"I thought seeing me all sweaty made you horny." I argued, my lips curling into a smirk.
"Watching you all wet turns me on too." she admitted, pressing her lips together. "Go shower and I promise to stay naked, deal?"
This time, I smirked even more and waggling my eyebrows, making her laugh. "Can I get a glimpse?" I asked, pulling gently on the top of the towel and letting my gaze drop in her cleavage.
"No!" she argued, slapping my hand slightly and chuckling. "Hurry!"
I groaned and rushed to the bathroom, getting quickly undressed and starting the shower. I let out a sigh as I tilted my chin, feeling the warm water fall in my face and wet my hair. The past months had been exhausting, mentally and physically, but I could actually say that I was in the exact place I wanted to be. I didn't feel this hole inside my chest anymore. Somehow, it was filled with something that I desperately needed without really realizing it. It was not only the love we had for each other that mattered, it was also the friendship, the history, the trust, the hope and the need we felt toward the other... all of this filled everything that needed to be filled. She was my home, and I was hers. I had never felt like that for anyone else in my life.
I quickly got out of the shower and dried my body and hair before wrapping the towel around my waist. When I walked back in the room, my lips parted slightly and I stopped dead in my track. She was laying in bed, on her stomach, her headphones on as she seemed to read something (a book or a magazine, perhaps?), still completely naked. I stared for a few seconds at the back of her head before my eyes moved down to her ass. I didn't know if she did that just to turn me on but it definitely worked. I took the towel off and let it fall next to me before grabbing my cock in my hand and stroking it gently.
She started humming a song low and I was so focused on her naked form that it took me half a minute to realize it was one of mine. It made the left corner of my lips raise up and I let my free hand run down to my balls as I got harder.
Being able to have sex with her every time I came back to the hotel room was one of the perks of having her on tour, along with many others, of course. I normally prefer to be alone but when it came to Olivia, everything seemed different. I didn't feel stuck in this relationship, or smothered by it. I still wanted us to be private and couldn't wait until people would stop mentioning that video or us after my livestream but at the same time, It didn't bother me the way it would have before. After all, I was dating her, and for the very first time in my life, I wanted it to last forever. Just that thought seemed crazy to me and my heart skipped a beat.
I took a step closer to her and without thinking, I straddled her quickly and stared down as I pushed my cock inside her. She tensed and I felt her walls press around the tip of my cock, making me groan.
"Don't move, baby." I whispered before realizing she probably couldn't hear me.
I kept looking down as I slowly pushed myself more inside her until I was balls deep and moaned low. She felt amazing, as she always did, and my whole body started throbbing. I leaned closer to her, holding myself with my hands near her shoulders, and moved my hips back before thrusting in her again.
"F-Fuck."
The way she whimpered made me smile and with one hand, I took her headphones off and it fell off the bed, making a soft sound as it hit the carpet. I bent down slightly and brushed my lips on her ear.
"I don't think what you're reading is as interesting as what I'm doing to you, is it, petal?"
I watched her eyes flutter closed and her lips part before laying on top of her and slipping one of my arms around her. My hand reached for her neck and I pressed my fingers on her throat as I tried to hold myself with the elbow of my other arm, making sure I didn't crush her or hurt her.
"Is it?" I asked again, a little louder this time.
"Mm, nothing is better than what you're doing to me." she admitted in a whisper, making me smile more.
"How much do you like my cock inside your pretty little cunt, pet?"
She moved her ass up to feel me deeper and I breathed through my teeth at the amazing sensation, remaining motionless for a few seconds. She started wiggling a bit and my grip tightened around her neck.
"So.. so much." she whimpered again, gripping the sheets of the bed with both hands.
"You're so fucking impatient." I whispered with a chuckle, letting go of her throat and sitting back on her legs. "Didn't think I'd find you laying on the bed naked like that, just waiting for me. You have no idea how hard that made me."
I stared down at my cock moving slowly in and out of her as I moved and enjoyed the moans coming out of her mouth every single time I was completely inside her.
"Fuck, Niall, please."
I looked up and grabbed her hair, pulling on it a bit as she let out a louder whimper.
"Fuck, you're so wet." I whispered, gripping her hair tighter. "I want to cum inside you, petal."
I watched her move a bit, her body twisting as she slipped one of her arms under her body to reach for her clit. She rubbed the tip of her fingers on my balls, making me groan, and finally started touching herself, making her ass grind up. I started fucking her harder and faster, in motion with her ass moving up and it only took a minute or two until she started shaking beneath me. The sight was amazing and I groaned as I came too, pushing her hard despite myself in the mattress.
"Jesus Christ." I whispered before going limp on top of her.
I heard her chuckle and my lips curled too as I brushed them on her shoulder. She shivered and I smiled even more when goosebumps appeared on her now damp skin.
"I love having sex with you." she admitted, making me laugh lightly.
"Oh darling, I love having sex with you, too."
I trailed kisses on her neck and shoulder and after a while, I moved next to her, laying on my back and staring at the ceiling. We were on the wrong side of the bed and I felt my heels lean against one of the pillows.
"And I love spending time with you. I love being close to you. I love that you followed me here. I love that you're still my best friend after all this time. I love that we get along so well, that we grew up together, that we're even closer than we used to be." I confessed slowly in a soft tone. "I love that you love me. I love that I love you. I love the team we make. I love you, Olivia."
I turned my head her way and she was staring at her. She seemed on the verge on tears but I knew they were happy tears and I sent her a fond smile before moving on my side to see her better. I brought one of my hands to her cheek and pushed a lock of her hair behind her ear.
"The truth is, I can't wait to marry you, to start a family with you, to grow old with you."
Her eyes roamed on my face and she swallowed hard. We both remained silent for a while and she pressed her lips together. It was so endearing that I smiled more and let my fingertips run on her shoulder and down her sides, until her waist.
"You..." she started, stopping herself again for a few seconds before her eyes met mine. "The first time we dated, it was everything that scared you about our couple. That's why you broke up with me, remember?"
I held my head with my hand, my arm on the mattress, and she moved closer, licking her lips and waiting for my answer. Of course I remembered, how could I not?
"I know." I replied, nodding lightly. "I was a fuckin' idiot. I mean, I still am." I shrugged with a chuckle. "But I'm an idiot who will never make that mistake again. I don't want to be with anyone else. And I don't want to be away from you."
"For someone who supposedly suck at expressing his feelings, you're doing quite well." she pointed out with a big smile.
I laughed too and shrugged again. "I've been thinking about what I was going to say for days." I admitted, glancing away before looking back at her. "I almost wrote a song instead."
"You could have," she whispered, reaching for my hand and squeezing my fingers. "I love hearing you sing."
I smiled again and pulled her closer to me to feel her body against mine. I lied down on my back again and she cuddled my side quickly. We stayed quiet for a while and every time she'd tilt her chin up to kiss mine, it would make me smile. It made me realize I had everything I needed, everything I wanted... I had everything I didn't even know I needed, and didn't even know I wanted.
"Do you still want to elope?" I asked randomly after a while.
"It's still a dream of mine, yea." she replied in a gentle tone. "But I know you'd prefer a normal wedding with our families and friends. I'm okay with that."
"I'm sure we can make a compromise."
She moved her head up to look in my eyes and frowned a bit. "This is... hypothetical, right?"
I let my eyes roam again on her face and something stirred inside me. I had no idea it was possible to love someone so bad. I didn't know it was possible to love someone so much you that you'd be ready to change your life plans for them. But here I was, staring at the only woman I ever fell in love with, knowing that I'd do anything for her, and that I would never stop loving her.
"Of course, we're just talking." I lied, my lips curling more. "So we'd elope and get married in Vegas, and then make a big party with our friends and family. And then what?"
"Honeymoon? If we're not too busy..."
"We'll make time." I replied firmly. "Bali or Bora Bora?"
She laughed and turned to lay on her back, my arm still behind her neck, and she finally shook her head. "I don't care where we go, Niall. As long as I'm with you."

Chapter 56. Oxford
I was excited and afraid.
I was intrigued and intimidated.
I was enchanted.
I was at Oxford.
That city had been to me what castles and voluptuous dresses were for other little girls. A fairytale. A dream.
It had all started when I was eight years old. Lamb had taken me with him to visit one of his dearest friends -- one who by chance had just discovered a new archaeological site and was convinced that a whole city lay underneath tons of dust. This kind of information always worked like a fluorescent light for the kind of craved-for-knowledge-moth my uncle happened to be, and it took him only a few days to find airline tickets for us to fly from Lebanon to Oxford.
While my uncle and Andrew -- or Professor Horcrof, as he was known at the university -- spent endless days talking over manuscripts and pictures, I had been a PhD student’s burden to entertain. Extremely unprofessional on Andrew’s behalf, but I was too young to realize it back then and Emma insisted that taking care of me was no trouble at all. She was as sweet and kind as she was impressive -- almost as tall as Lamb, with golden hair and beautiful blue-rimmed glasses. Not really beautiful, but imposing, and it was obvious that everyone respected her. For me, the genuine niece of uncle Lamb, that meant much more than alluring eyes and an aristocratic nose.
Emma had been the reason I prayed for nearsightedness for years after we left Oxford. And the reason I found Oxford’s grey the most beautiful colour, and started building my own fairytale in the city of dreaming spires. She was the one who had taken me to the Bodleian Library and made me take the Bodleian oath. Sometimes, in the years that followed, when I closed my eyes, I could still feel my chest puff up with pride and self-importance as I spoke the words, ‘I hereby undertake not to remove from the Library, or to mark, deface, or injure in any way, any volume, or document…’
That day I had also sworn to her that when I grew up, I would study at Oxford as well. Emma had replied that she was sure I would.
And now, here I was. I wondered what Emma would think.
My college was not at the centre of the city and I felt my heart beat faster and faster inside my chest as I walked towards my destination. It was a struggle to bring my shallow breathing back to normal and not break into a run when I first glimpsed Lady Margaret Hall. A college with more than one hundred and forty years of history, and the first to educate women at Oxford.
I searched for the word in my head as my feet led me to the entrance. Honoured, I thought, and stepped inside.
--
Three days in Oxford and I was sure that Jamie’s phone would soon reach its maximum storage capacity after receiving so many pictures -- the buildings, my college, my room, the gardens… I didn’t even take the time to sort out the best pictures, but sent him everything, unable to contain the happiness I was feeling.
“You have to take me to each and every one of these places when I visit, Sassenach,” he’d written. I promised him I would.
The accommodations at Lady Margaret Hall were better than most colleges in Oxford, and Mary Hawkins, my roommate, was a sweet, if not a bit shy, girl from Bath. She had a quiet beauty, and luckily for both of us, she was a fellow medical student. I liked her from the first moment we introduced ourselves and she seemed to like me too, though she talked at a frequency that was barely audible, and it was a struggle to carry on a conversation without asking her to repeat herself over and over again. I soon realized that the low voice was a way to hide her stutter, and hoped that it would get better once she felt comfortable. Sometimes I wondered how it would be, if Louise was at Oxford with us and not in France. Or Jenny. Louise would tease Mary to no end. Jenny would, most likely, take Mary under her wing and protect her throughout our years at university.
I wasn’t surprised Mary kept mostly to herself. She mentioned once or twice that she had grown up with a strict father who made it explicit to her that Oxford University wasn’t a choice, but an obligation. He had gone to Oxford University. His father had studied there. Mary’s mother had graduated from Lady Margaret’s Hall. It was unacceptable for Mary to break the family tradition. I felt sorry, but happy she had made it and was away from them now. Sometimes distance was all it took for a child to become an adult.
Freshers’ week had been full of tours and social events for the new students. A whole week for everyone to become familiar with the university and have fun -- everyone except us, the medics. Our welcome included writing three essays for the first week of the term, and we spent a good amount of the week doing research in the library. There were four of us in Lady Margaret’s Hall and having to work while everyone else had the time of their lives formed a bond between us in a matter of days. The solidarity of the maltreated medics, we called it.
At least we had our parents, to help. The college family system assigned each one of us a student who was a year older, to guide us, give us advice and notes. Maisri, my college mam, had big brown eyes, thick black hair, and a deep voice that made everything she said sound serious. Even if it was something like, “Dr. Raymond won’t need the essay if you present yourself like this on Monday. One look at your hair and he’ll be scared for good. By no means, do continue running your hands through your curls.”
When we took a break from studying, I made sure to drag Mary with me to one party or another, determined to bring her out of her shell. When she wasn’t in the library, I usually found her in the piano room. It was the only place I saw her relax. She played the piano beautifully, and more than once, I grabbed a book and lounged there, feeling the notes dance in the room around us. I had tried to convince her to join me and Maisri in the yoga classes that were taking place in the gardens during the summer months, but Mary resolutely denied.
The Michaelmas term started right after Freshers’ week. And with the courses, real life commenced.
I had read that the University demanded eight hours per day be spent on focussed, concentrated academic work. Theoretically, that was fine. Practically, the workload of medical school was much heavier. We were in lectures and practicals from 9 am to 3 pm, and then we had three tutorials per week which required either an essay, a worksheet, or a presentation prepared beforehand.
It was amazing, studying medicine. But with the courses, meeting new people, and trying to socialize in an effort to be a part of the university community, I always felt exhausted. The pictures I sent to Jamie were limited to selfies showing me and my books while I was studying in the library, or shots of the collections of pints gathered on the table in front of me at local pubs.
Some nights I fell asleep so early that I missed my nightly call with Jamie. And other times I was out for drinks and ended up having a short video call outside a pub or a club, just to see him for a few minutes and hear his voice.
In any case, we still managed to talk at least once every day. And we texted when we couldn’t. And sent pictures.
It was the beginning, I reminded myself. It was expected that I would need some time to adjust. Jamie understood. He, too, had an intense schedule. His term was more demanding now that he had been admitted to the Ross School of Business, swimming meets had begun, and he pushed himself to his limits, which meant that he often overslept and missed our morning call.
I almost screamed when I read his text after his first race as a Wolverine. Almost, because at that time I was in a lecture. Mary and a few other students shot me bewildered glances, trying to guess what Dr. Hildstand had said that I found so fascinating, but I just shook my head and swallowed my smile, trying not to attract more attention. I texted Jamie a minute later, with a row of emojis. Then, I told him that I was proud of him and I loved him. He sent me a wet kiss picture in response.
I was just as happy and proud after his second race, but Jamie wasn’t. He had finished second, and apparently for Jamie that was equivalent to finishing last. That evening, I was in the study room with Mary, Malva, and Davie when Maisri rushed in, still laughing from something that she had said to someone in the corridor, and invited us to ‘Dissection Drinks’ with medics from other colleges. Mary groaned at the prospect of going out again, but Malva and Davie quickly accepted the invitation. I had almost agreed on going too, when I remembered that Jamie would be getting home early and we would have time for a rather extensive call. Judging by the sulky texts I got throughout the day, I was sure that he’d need to talk.
“I can’t come, but maybe next time,” I said, ignoring Maisri’s frown. I would give my Friday night to my boyfriend. Looking at the big black clock on the wall, I realized I only had half an hour before our call.
Mary called it an early night and after a quick visit to our room, I headed to the showers, wanting to be ready when Jamie called.
An hour later, I was lying on my bed, still waiting. And then, an hour after that. I’d texted Jamie and he just replied that he wasn’t home yet.
When Jamie finally called me, I was more than irritated and Mary was sound asleep in her bed. Grabbing my phone, I resorted to one of the empty study rooms to have a conversation where more than whispering could be used.
“You’re late, Jamie Fraser.” I had planned for very playful greeting while I was in the shower, but after two hours of waiting and seeing him fresh as a daisy, my tone turned dourer than I’d thought it would be.
“Ah, I ken. Sorry, Sassenach, we were out wi’ the team and I couldna leave earlier.”
I forced myself to relax and smile, and I was almost successful. It wasn’t his fault, I repeated to myself again and again, until I believed it. Keeping my frustration from being front and center, I focused on Jamie. Spending half of our time arguing about the fact that he was late would do neither of us any good.
“Congratulations for today,” I said, to change the mood and make it clear that the second place was to be praised.
He shook his head. “Second,” he said, glumly.
“You can’t always finish first, I hope you know that,” I admonished him. “Everyone has bad days, although I’m not sure that coming second counts as a bad day.”
“At the first race it was different. Today I was so stressed, I dinna think I’ve ever been that stressed before.”
“But why? You’ve participated in far bigger competitions before.”
“Aye, but in Scotland I knew my opponents. I had raced against them time and time again as we grew up and knew their mistakes and strong points. Here I have no idea what to expect. ”
“But in the first race --”
“I don’t think I’d realized the sheer size of competitions here,” he interrupted me. “The Big Ten, the NCAA championships…”
“Jamie, look at me.” I wished he could be next to me, so I could squeeze his cheeks between my hands and make him see how much he had already achieved. “You’ll do great. You’ll give your best self, you will keep working, and you will improve. You’re one of the best swimmers already! First and second place, come on!”
That made him laugh. “Thank ye, mo ghraidh. I wish you were here. It was always different when I was looking at you in the bleachers after seeing my times.”
“Well, if that makes you happy, I almost screamed both times I read your texts. During lectures, I have to mention.”
He laughed and his blue eyes shone for the first time that evening. “It does, Sassenach. It makes me happy. You make me happy. So, how was your day?”
“Good! I had my first tutorial with Dr. Raymond. He is absolutely amazing, Jamie. He’s tiny, really, no taller than Mrs. FitzGerald but he’s a force of nature. Ha. Funny, because the tutorial was on alternative medicine and herbs. It was the best tutorial I’d had so far.”
“So, uni is as ye expected it to be?”
“Heavier workload, if you can imagine that, but yes. I love it.” I smiled, realizing the truth behind my words. Medical school was everything I had wished for, and even more.
“Good. I’m glad ye do, babe. Did you look for tickets yet?”
I hesitated. “No, not yet.”
Jamie sighed. “Dinna leave it for the last moment, Sassenach. You’re going to pay a fortune at the end.” He opened a bottle of water and drank until it was half empty. “Dhia, I’m always so thirsty after coming back from Hector’s.”
“Alcohol causes dehydration, you know.”
“Aye, aye doctor.” He flashed a toothy grin and took another big gulp.
I waited until his eyes met mine again, seeking the right words to express what I needed to say. “Jamie, I was thinking…” Jamie left the water next to him and slightly tilted his head sideways, waiting. “I was thinking that maybe coming in two weeks isn’t a good idea, after all.”
“Oh?”
I knew he wouldn’t like that. “I know we planned on meeting in early November, but the term ends at the beginning of December, and I thought I might wait until then so I can stay longer when I come to Michigan. And maybe we could fly to Edinburgh together for Christmas.” I swallowed, uneasy, even though I knew that my proposal made perfect sense. There was no reason to spend so much money just to see him for a few days. “If I come before the term ends, I will stay only for a few days and I have lectures I don’t want to miss…” I added when he kept silent.
“I thought you’d be here for my race in New Jersey, that’s all,” he finally said with no trace of feeling in his voice. His face had changed into a neutral mask.
“But it’s a better plan if I come before Christmas, no?”
“I guess so.”
I fidgeted with the hem of my top, avoiding his eyes. I knew he wanted me to be in New Jersey as we had planned, but that was before I came to Oxford. I didn’t really know what I would find here. When I finally looked at Jamie, I saw a strained smile on his mouth and disappointment dancing in his stare. “I wanted to be there, too, Jamie,” I tried to explain. He nodded. “I wanted to,” I insisted, forcefully. “But we must make compromises. It’s just four weeks, and then we’ll spend a whole month together.”
“Yeah. Okay. You’re right.”
I smiled and blew him a kiss. He kissed me -- the screen -- back.
“So, what place did John get today? ” I asked to change the subject.
“Fourth. He was so pissed.” Jamie chuckled and I could see some of the tension leaving his shoulders.
We talked about swimming and his classes, and then about my practicals and my newfound love for yoga. “Until I find a decent dance club,” I clarified.
We smiled, laughed, and teased each other, but I could still feel a lingering uneasiness between us.
“Jamie?” I whispered when he said he was tired and would go to bed. “You know I wanted to be there, don’t you?”
This time his smile was genuine. “Aye, Sassenach. I ken. Ye just took me by surprise, is all. Dinna worry, aye?”
“And you know I love you, right?” I asked again.
His smile turned into a grin. “Aye, ye wee yogi.” He ignored my snort. “I love ye too, Claire.” This time his voice was guttural. I let out a heavy sigh and heard him mirroring it, as if we needed to hear the words even though we could always feel them resonating through our bodies.
“Now go to bed,” he finally said. “I’ll dream of you.”
“Me too,” I said, and we ended the call.
Me too.

Loud, messy, and generally annoying roommate learns his lesson
So I had a roommate over this last summer, as we subleased an apartment in my hometown from a friend of my roommate's who was traveling for the summer. It worked out perfectly, because he was able to give us a cheap enough rent that I could work a factory job in town and still save enough money to put towards tuition for the next year of college.
Now for a little backstory. This friend of mine, we'll call him "Alex", for privacy. I don't like the guy, but I'll still respect his privacy. I use the term "friend" fairly loosely, as we come from a small town (about 5,000 people), so everyone knew everyone, and Alex and I graduated together. We never hung out together outside of the classes and extracurriculars we had together, but I had never had any issues with the guy before this.
So, fast forward to the first week of living together. All was ok at first, some minor annoyances, but nothing major. However as time went on, things started to pile up. Literally, and figuratively. It started with some minor annoyances. We're both guitarists, and would occasionally play together. I'd been playing consistently for about a decade at this point, he'd been playing on and off for a few years. However, when we started living together, he started playing more, probably motivated by seeing how much I played. Nice, right?
Well the biggest problem with this was that he worked the 3rd shift at the same factory (midnight-7am) and I worked the first shift (7am-3:30). So he would play his guitar in his room (right next to mine) at all hours of the night while I was trying to sleep. His typical routine was to crash as soon as he got home, sleep until 3 or 4, (usually he was awake by the time I got home, but not always) make himself food, and then divide the time between then to either play video games with his friends online, or play guitar. Loudly. I typically tried to be in bed by 9, but was almost always woken up either by his guitar, him screaming loudly during a League match, or him clambering loudly around the apartment to get ready for work. I swear it sounded like he was wrestling Macho Man Randy Savage himself in the living room and kitchen at 11:30 at night every night. On top of all of this, he would have his girlfriend over occasionally, as well as other girls I'm assuming he had met on Tinder (as I saw him swiping through occasionally). And the walls between our rooms were very, very thin. I had many conversations with him to try and explain that the noise was bothering me, but he responded with "Sorry dude, just get carried away sometimes. Have you tried headphones?" (yes, that's an exact quote, and yes I had tried headphones, but to no avail. They were too uncomfortable to sleep in). I was exhausted at work every day, relying on the Monster they sold in the break room every day to get me through (so yes, I do blame him for my current addiction to monster). So like I said, things started to pile up, figuratively in that regard, and it was getting old.
On the literal side of things, Alex was a slob, and his things would LITERALLY start to pile up. He'd leave his change of clothes in the living room when he'd change before work and wouldn't pick them up for a week at a time. His room started to smell, and soon, so did he. I don't think I saw him take out the trash in his room once, and I would constantly have to enter his den of despair to retrieve dirty dishes, as he liked to eat in his room while watching anime or playing League, and just leave the dishes on his nightstand. I also started noticing food items going missing from the fridge. Again, I approached him about it, and again, was given an apology and a promise to clean up. But that promise remained unfulfilled. The last straw finally came around mid June.
At work, there are small lockers that employee's can use to store their things. They aren't assigned, so it's a first come first serve basis. You write your name on a sticker and put it on an empty locker, and you are responsible for getting a lock for the locker. I got a simple padlock with a combination, and took the last available locker, recently vacated as one of the employee's got moved to a different assembly department within the factory. I gave Alex the combination and told him he could share it with me so long as he didn't mess with my stuff. Things in there started to pile up as well. Mainly work gloves and safety glasses, as he would put them in there at the end of his shift, and then forget and just get new ones. Our factory handed out gloves and safety glasses for free, so I'm sure he never thought anything of it.
This was just another minor annoyance until one day I left my wallet in my storage locker, and didn't realize until the next day, as I was on my way to work and stopped for gas, and didn't have my card to pay for it. No biggie, this has happened before. I get to work, and as I'm walking in, Alex is walking out. After my shift, I grab my wallet and go to get gas when I notice there's $60 in cash missing from my wallet. I know this because it was money I had set aside to go to a concert later that summer (the last Warped Tour, bittersweet, I know). I went home and confronted him about this when he woke me up clambering around in the kitchen again, and he denied it (of course), even though he's the only one with the combination to my lock. So I decided I was done. Over the next week, I tried to think of a plan, and had a eureka moment when my boss asked me to switch to second shift for a few weeks while another coworker from that shift was taking advantage her years of accumulated vacation days. Perfect.
Finally, ON TO THE REVENGE.
I started with small, reasonable things, like not washing the dishes, hiding the few that were mine in my room, and washing them and putting them away as I used them. The apartment had its own washer and dryer, but the guy we were renting from took his laundry supplies with him, asking him to use our own. Fine by me, I had bought the detergent and dryer sheets anyways. I promptly moved those back into my room as well, and started only doing my own laundry. At work, I had made a new friend who agreed to let me stow my wallet, keys, and phone in his locker during the work day, as I was now temporarily on second shift and my things were usually gone by the time he came in for his shift. Alex's laundry started to pile up. By the look (and smell) of it, he was rewearing clothes several times without washing them. I have no idea what he started using for dishes, I can only hope he wasn't eating off of the gross used ones. He never came and talked to me, and I'm not sure if it was out of laziness or if it was because he knew he didn't have a leg to stand on. But sadly, the smell just kept getting worse, and my efforts seemed to just accelerate his degradation into grossness. But I still had one more card to play.
See, the best thing for me about moving to second shift was that I would now come home at midnight and be able to sleep peacefully while he was gone. When he came home at 7, I would be waking up to start my day. And start my day, I did. First thing I did was make myself some breakfast. Usually a nice fruit smoothie in the blender, the loudest appliance in the kitchen. I would then go into my room, crank up the volume on my amp and jam out to some music, singing along to Mayday Parade, All Time Low, Sum 41, and a myriad of other bands I was listening to at the time in preparation for Warped Tour. I'm not a bad singer by any means, but I'm no Jason Lancaster. I would also occasionally invite my then-girlfriend over during that time, and we were, by no means, quiet. This seemed to be the last straw for Alex now. He stopped me one afternoon before I left for work, and asked me to keep it down while he slept, as it made it hard for him to focus and stay awake at work.
I responded in my most fake-sincere voice, "Sorry dude, I guess I just get carried away. Wanna borrow my headphones?" After a few more days of noise, I think he got the memo. He bought his own laundry detergent and dish soap, and slowly worked his way through the massive pile of shit in his cesspool of a room. By the time I switched back to first shift, he was the quietest, and most considerate roommate ever. However, the smell didn't leave the room, and I was concerned, so I called the friend we were renting from to ask if he had a carpet shampooer I could use to get the smell out. It was at this point the friend told me that this wasn't the first time this had happened, and apparently Alex had rented the apartment the previous summer as well, and the friend came home to find it filthy. Lucky for Alex, the person he was sharing the apartment with left to go back to school early for a university job orientation, and the friend came home to find Alex trying to clean the last of the apartment, blaming the smell and the messiness on the roommate who had left. The friend started to put it together and thanked me for letting him know, and that he would take care of the smell when he got back, but I insisted.
The Pièce De Résistance came when I sacrificed a couple hours of sleep to go into work while he was on the assembly line, grab his phone (which he kept unlocked) from the locker that still had my padlock on it, and found very incriminating text messages from the various other girls he had probably brought back to the apartment. I screenshotted them, send them to myself, and then deleted the evidence that could trace back to me. When I got home, I sent them all to his girlfriend, another girl I had graduated high school with, and that I was ACTUALLY friends with. I also sent screenshots to his "Tinderella's", who's numbers were in the screenshots of the texts under the contact names. And that was the end of that.
Alex was no longer allowed to stay at that friends apartment, but hopefully I taught him to respect his roommates. Because after sharing an apartment with him, with my own separate bedroom, I can't imagine having to share a dorm with him. As for his girlfriend, she dumped him immediately, and Alex spent less and less time at our apartment for that last month, probably going to his Tinder girls' places instead. In retrospect, I should have found a way to mess with his Tinder to stop him from getting matches, but I'm not sure what I could have done, and I think I made the poor guy suffer enough.
Anyways, sorry for the length, I'm not the best at condensing stories. I have a few other, more juicy revenge stories I'd be happy to post another day, I just had to deal with a roommate conflict earlier today (I'm an RA) and it reminded me of this situation. So I hope you enjoyed!

Weird question, but you seem really productive despite seeming to have a constantly fluctuating routine, with both your work and your hobbies. Most people think having a solid routine is the only way to increase your productivity but I've pretty much given up on having a routine since my life seems similar to yours--a lot of travel, weird and always changing work hours. Do you have any advice on how you deal with routine and productivity in spite of that?
Oh gosh, this is definitely something I struggle with a LOT, and I’m not sure I’ve found a coping strategy that works for me yet. But the small things that have been helping have been (1) keeping a routine in my planning even if the stuff I do changes dramatically (even if I’m traveling, I have a notebook where, every Sunday, I list all the stuff that has specific dates/times for the following week, I list the stuff where I still have to come up with a date/time, and I list the stuff I’ve gotta do that week for sure), and (2) finding multiple ways to approach the same goals that I can tailor to my level of energy/spare time on any given week (so this week I’m just not in a super exercisey mindset and can’t rely on having the motivation to run every day, but instead I’m making an extra effort not to eat out this week—lower-effort for my current state of mind, but all toward the same goal of feeling a bit healthier overall).
I’m also very cognizant of how little time at work is actually spent working, so I try not to feel guilty if the total number of hours worked is low as long as the work’s getting done. I’m an incredibly routine-oriented person, but it’s been a bit freeing to slowly and steadily teach myself that stuff just has to get finished one way or another, and the easiest way to do that is to just focus on specific goals and let the rest be flexible.
Anyway, yesterday I was thinking of this ask and was like, “You know, I’ll just write up what I do on Monday as an example, and I bet things will go hilariously awry.” And so they did.
So here’s what my weekly planning list looked like last night:
Dated Events:
Call with paper coauthor at 9AM Monday
Call with leadership academy planning committee at 10AM Monday
Call with peer mentoring group at 9AM Tuesday
Sit in on class at 11:30AM Tuesday and Thursday
Seminars Wednesday at 3PM, Thursday at 4PM, and Friday at 3PM
D&D Saturday at 6PM
Undated Events:
Coordinating abstract submission for an upcoming conference (early week)
Setting up Skype calls with a couple friends I haven’t talked to in a while (late week)
Assorted Priorities:
Book hotel for work travel in July
Accept journal article review request and scope out how long that’ll take
Review some materials sent out for my peer mentoring call
Revise my paper and submit the revisions before the Monday deadline
Get my driver’s license renewed (the joys of yearly visa renewal… your license has to be renewed yearly as well)
Put together a schedule for a biweekly Twitter feature highlighting new publications for the account I run for a subcommittee in my field
Respond to an e-mail about a conference in January about some weird deadline that popped up for next week
Come up with conference abstract ideas before the as-yet-unscheduled meeting
Fill out some action items in advance of my 10AM Monday call
And some more specific checklists for four research projects I’m focusing on this week
I purposely try to group conference calls together, because I currently share my office and feel weird doing video calls when she’s stuck in frame five feet away from me while she tries to work. So Monday seems like a good day to work from home, and I can squeeze in Tuesday’s call before heading to the office that morning. I’ll be in the office Tuesday-Friday, which means I’ll be able to attend those seminars and classes with no problem. I have most of my D&D prep done already because we ended early last game, so I can leave that until Saturday. The only thing I might have to shuffle to next week is the driver’s license thing, because it’ll take three hours and I have to account for finding a Lyft there and back. Okay. Aces.
Wake up this morning to find my internet’s out, and I also somehow left the hard drive with all my research on it at work. Hoo boy. But staring over my to-do list, I think I can set today up as a “big picture” day and not have to do any actual coding, so I’m still okay to work from home. I can also phone in to the conference calls instead of using the video call software. All good.
Luckily, the internet comes back right before my first call of the day. Said call is with someone who also happens to be a dean, so she has a tendency to get held up at meetings, so I take that delay to look at the action items for my second call (I mean… if you send me action items at 8PM on a Sunday I am not gonna touch them until Monday morning).
When she did make it online, we chatted about the new paper, and she strongly encouraged me to send it to our other coauthors in case they have suggestions. We’re submitting on Monday, which is way too short-notice to read a 20-page research paper, but they already read the pre-revision version in great detail, so I shot them an e-mail that included a summary of the substantial changes and a note to the effect that if any of them want more time to look at this stuff, I can beg the editor for an extension on their behalf. Minor crisis averted.
Second meeting is very intense and structured. Everyone has to volunteer to organize and lead two webinars in the next three months, so I go ahead and volunteer for the two April ones so I’ll get it out of the way early. Aaand the first webinar is at 1PM this Friday. Okay. I’ll work from home that morning so I can do last-minute prep, then head into the office in time for the 3PM seminar. No biggie. One organizer puts together a draft schedule, and I send a quick e-mail suggesting a different use of one of the ten-minute time slots. One of the other organizers requests another conference call tomorrow instead of e-mails. I tell them I can only do after 4PM, if I leave work early. Eh. We’ll see how that works out.
After the call, I get through a bunch of small tasks in maybe 20 minutes: hotel booked, Twitter posts prepped, review request accepted (not due until May 20, so plenty of time on that), conference deadline e-mail chain started. I spend the rest of the time before noon getting sucked into an article someone sent me about the myths surrounding undergraduate grade inflation and then reading up on the peer mentoring materials for our call tomorrow. A couple other minor e-mails pop up (scheduling the precise date of a conference mixer in January, that kind of thing) and I manage to deal with them right away.
Lunch! Clearly working from home means I should take the opportunity to indulge in some fine cuisine, some leisurely cooking that highlights—
I heat up a microwave meal (chicken couscous) and watch YouTube videos for an hour.
Back in it! I write up some abstract submission ideas and make a valiant attempt at setting up a time to talk about them, but it looks like that might have to wait until next week. We’re still a ways before the deadline, so that’s okay.
Mmmmmmm someone on Twitter mentions a conference in Germany in September and a workshop in Colorado in July that both look like a good fit for my research. I’m in a situation where I have a big chunk of travel funding that’s going to disappear unless it gets spent in the next year. Oh no. But also oh yes.
Just in case, I put together a couple point-form ideas for stuff to propose that I can bring to the people holding the purse strings.
The rest of the afternoon is spent putting together weekly goals for four of my research projects: each one involves a collaboration with a different person, so I’d like to be able to send each of them an e-mail with at least one new thing to share about that project this week. Just in case that doesn’t happen, though, I rank them from most to least important. Worst-case scenario, I don’t have to send any of them this week, but it’ll make next week tougher if I don’t.
It’s only about 3:30 at this point, but honestly, I’m feeling a bit exhausted and overwhelmed (some of the e-mail chains have gone through five or six replies at this point and keeping it all straight is giving me a headache), so I opt to get some groceries and call it a day.
I may have added some stuff, but I got a lot crossed off today! Here’s how that last checklist looks at the end of the day:
Assorted Priorities:
Revise my paper and submit the revisions before the Monday deadline
Project #1: come up with a new exploratory figure and send to Person A.
Project #2: summarize the early results I started last week and send to Person B, along with an ask to see whether he’d be up for me presenting this stuff in Europe in November.
Project #3: improve on figures I showed last month and send to Person C.
Project #4: prepare a rough outline of the next paper to send to Person D.
Not having my work hard drive means I was able to just focus on the stuff that wasn’t specific to research today. In all the chaos of today, I’ve set myself up well for a research-heavy rest of the week where I (hopefully) won’t have to worry about non-research stuff or big changes to the schedule and can just burrow into research, emerging for occasional seminar/webinar breaks. A good Monday, all around.

***
Yoongi sat his phone down and realized he had a stupid, huge grin plastered onto his face. He couldn’t help himself. Two whole days with Jimin. No, three whole days with Jimin. Without faltering his grin, he got up and put on his date night outfit -- fitted black slacks with a white silk blouse that cut down mid-chest, topped off with a black and white floral jacket and a thick choker. He looked in the mirror and thought he might be going a little overboard but fuck it, he was spending Valentine’s day with Park Jimin -- aka the actual love of his life. And while it was exhilarating to think about, he was actually growing nervous about having sex with Jimin and was overcompensating for his nerves by over dressing.
Not more than five minutes after he had finished getting ready, Yoongi heard the soft rapping of Jimin’s knuckles on the front door, and he thought his heart might explode. When he opened the door, he was greeted by a Jimin imposter. There was no happy, bubbly, soft, sweet boyfriend staring at him, oh no. This Jimin had his hair pushed back and a choker around his neck. He was wearing a black blouse similar to Yoongi’s and tight black pants, complemented by a blue velvet jacket. Yoongi was almost positive that this was not the same boy who was just texting him sappy shit because it’s Valentine’s day. No, this was NOT Park Jimin. Yoongi licked his lips habitually, but also because the man standing in front of him was making his mouth water.
Jimin leaned against the doorframe, biting his lip followed by a wink. “Hey there sexy beast.” He wiggled his eyebrows, using everything he had to hold in his laughter.
On second thought, this 100% was Park Jimin, his complete dork of a boyfriend. Yoongi smiled as his eyes met Jimin’s.
“Hyung!” Jimin screamed as he jumped toward Yoongi, slamming his lips onto his. “Happy Valentines day to the best boyfriend in the whole entire world.” He shoved the glittery heart-shaped box of chocolates in his hands. “Is this cheesy enough for you?”
“I have no idea what ‘this’ is referring to, whether it be your fucking ensemble or the kiss, or the chocolates. BUT I will have you know that I am flattered and extremely turned on,” Yoongi babbled, taking the chocolates and pulling his boyfriend in for another kiss.
“Says the one who went out of their way to wear a silk blouse.” Jimin muttered under his breath.
Yoongi smirked, bringing his lips to Jimin's ear and his voice to a low growl, “I bet our bed sheets will be just as silky smooth against our naked bodies tonight.”
“Ohhhh,” Jimin wiggled his eyebrows dramatically again. “Someone's a little excited. We have a whole day ahead of us though, try to keep your mind out of the gutter for a few hours will you?” He giggled, his eyes turning into their usual crescents.
“Says the one who went out of their way to push their hair back,” Yoongi huffed.
Jimin dramatically flipped his hair with a grin. “But you love it, don’t you? I spent a whole hour trying to gel my hair into place okay, it took every ounce of my effort.”
Yoongi pressed his lips against Jimin’s once more, “Baby, ‘love it’ is an understatement.”
Jimin wrapped his arms around Yoongi’s waist, holding him closely. “Good thing my efforts didn’t go to waste then.” He took in Yoongi’s appearance, feeling a blush creep up his cheeks. He had no words to express how much he loved Yoongi, or how amazing he looked for that matter. He was about to spend three whole days with this man and he couldn’t be happier. “I’d say you look absolutely gorgeous right now, but that too, is an understatement.”
Yoongi chuckled, “We both put too much effort into this. It’s just Valentine’s day for fuckssake.” He pulled Jimin along into the house and shut the door behind him. “But, can I interest you in some of Jin’s freshly baked Valentine’s treats?”
As if on cue, Yoongi heard a door slam open and feet hurriedly make their way to the kitchen. Jin appeared in the area with wildly tousled hair and one of Namjoon’s hoodies on. “I swear to GOD if either of you touch an unfrosted cupcake or cookie, I will decline Jimin’s sweet request to cook you dinner tomorrow.” Namjoon followed behind, munching on an unfrosted cupcake.
Yoongi looked at Jin and Namjoon with a ‘tch’ and crossed his arms over his chest, “First of all why does Namjoon get to eat one, and second of all, why haven’t you frosted anything yet?”
Jin almost looked appalled Yoongi would ask him such a question. Almost. He’s good at being fake. “The answer to both your questions is because I was too preoccupied getting completely fucked by Namjoon to care about frosting anything or the fact that he took unfinished pastries.”
Jimin stifled his laughter as he watched the scene unfold. “They’ve really hit it off since the knife incident, haven’t they?” He muttered towards Yoongi. “Jin-hyung! Since we don’t have any plans until lunch, can I help with the rest of the valentine treats?” Jimin pleaded.
Jin looked over at Jimin with a grin plastered on his face, “Of course, Jimin-ah!” His smile quickly dropped as he looked between Yoongi and Namjoon “You two on the other hand, stay the fuck out of my kitchen.”
Yoongi looked offended, “Excuse me, I have never disrespected your kitchen. Why am I being shunned?”
Jin grabbed his frosting knife and waved it in Yoongi’s direction, “Because I need alone time with my son. Gotta have the talk. You’re already too fargone, but I might be able to spare his innocence. Now the two of you can get the fuck out of here. We’ll call you when the sweets are done.”
Jimin gave Yoongi an innocent wave and joined Jin in the kitchen, putting on his spare pink apron covered in little hearts and bears, fitting for Valentines day. His eyes grew wide at the sight of all the treats covering every counter in the kitchen. “Exactly how many people were you expecting to feed with all of these treats hyung?”
“You’ve obviously never been around a hungry Namjoon. He’ll eat a dozen of each on his own. I swear he’s going to contract diabetes one day.” Jin tied his own lacy pink apron around him and motioned for Jimin to bring the big pink KitchenAid mixer over to the counter.
A squeaky laugh escaped from Jimin as he followed Jin’s request, carrying the mixer to an empty counter. “So,” Jimin leaned over, eyebrows wiggling. “You and Namjoon? Things are going well I assume?”
Jin tried to hold back a smile, but was betrayed by his own muscles, “Yeah. I’ve always fancied him, but never really thought we could be more than bickering housemates. I was so wrong. Our compatibility is wildly high. He’s so fucking smart and sweet but totally dumb at the same time. Also he’s really fucking good at sex, so I really can’t complain.”
“It’s like a match made in heaven. You’re the band-aid to his destruction.” He leaned against the KitchenAid, letting out a dreamy sigh.
“Not only the band-aid, but also the one to prevent the destruction from ever happening. You know how many Namjoon-related accidents we could have prevented this whole damn time if I had been with him to say ‘look out’ or ‘Joonie take it slow?’” A fond smile settled on his lips as he sliced off a chunk of butter and placed it in a small glass dish, “Can you soften that in the microwave for me?”
With a nod, Jimin took the small dish and placed it in the microwave, setting the timer. He carefully pulled out the warm dish when the timer went off and carried it back to Jin, dumping it into the mixer.
“Now as I mix the powdered sugar pour the buttermilk in, but not all at once. You can also throw in that vanilla whenever as well. We’re gonna mix on low until it’s all mixed, then gradually go faster to whip it up. Speaking of whipping things up, you and Yoongi are pretty serious, yeah? He told me you guys have a hotel room today and tomorrow.” Jin looked at Jimin as he flipped the switch on the mixer.
Jimin’s face suddenly flushed as he bit his lip, replying with a nod. “It’s a big weekend for us. But this entire week, I’ve been so nervous. Is that a bad thing hyung? I mean, it’s just Yoongi. I love him, and he knows that. I don’t know, it just feels...different this time?”
“Jimin, tell me this. Are you able to talk about sex? Because if you can’t talk about it, you aren’t ready for it,” Jin quipped as he scraped frosting off the side of the bowl and back into the beater.
“Yoongi and I have brought it up a couple of times in the past. But you know, I trust him, I really do, and I know he wouldn’t do anything to make me feel uncomfortable.”
“That’s good," Jin smiled. "You know, I’ve never seen him so mushy over anyone before you. He’s constantly smiling and in a good mood, and it’s so fucking weird. I guess we just got so used to him being so depressed and moody. He really cares about you, Jimin.” Jin turned up the speed for the mixer.
Jimin watched the mixer in a trance as a bashful smile crept up his lips. “I really care about him too hyung. So much, it almost makes me feel sick.”
“Ah, to be young and in love.”
Jimin glanced up at Jin, raising an eyebrow. “What does that make you and Namjoon then?”
“Our sex life might be new, but our relationship spans many years. We’re just two old fools.”
“Jin, you’re only 25.”
“Jimin, I didn’t ask for your sass.” Jin turned off the mixer and scraped the sides one more time. After confirming the frosting was fluffy and ready, he unhooked the bowl from the mixer and pointed to the red dye. “We’re gonna make it all pink. Pour in a few drops.”
Jimin carefully squeezed three drops of the red dye but nearly dropped in the bowl as he heard a loud knocking on the front door, follow by a slam as it forcefully swung open. “I heard someone was making treats today!” He heard a shout and peeked out of the kitchen, watching Taehyung pull Yoongi into a playful headlock. “Yoongi! Look how dressed up you are. Getting ready for the big bang tonight? You got all your condoms and lube right?” He sneered, ruffling Yoongi’s hair.
“Taetae, get your hands off my boyfriend. He worked hard putting that look together.” Jimin threatened waving Jin’s frosting spatula toward him.
“Taehyung, if you wish to continue being able to fuck Jungkook, I would advise you taking your hands off me right now,” Yoongi deadpanned.
Taehyung quickly pulled his hands off Yoongi and wrapped them around Jungkook, who still stood at the door. “Forget I ever put my hands on you, Yoongs.” He spat with a glare.
“The whole dysfunctional family is here now,” Jimin closed his eyes, muttering under his breath. “Lovely.”
“All we’re missing is Hoseok,” Jin noted, mixing the red dye into the frosting.
A faint scream echoed in the hallway. “You were saying?” Jimin glanced up at Jin.
“I ran into a fucking idiot who was on their fucking phone and made me drop all my fucking chocolates. This was fucking expensive, I busted my entire fucking paycheck to spread my fucking love to you all.” Hoseok dropped the bag onto the kitchen table. “And now half of these got fucking destroyed.” He sat in one of the chairs and crossed his arm, pouting. “Happy Valentines day, fuckers.”
“I just wanted to spend the morning with Jimin,” Yoongi muttered.
“Yah, you’re spending the next two days with Jimin. Shut up and thank Hoseok for the lovely chocolates,” Jin snapped at Yoongi, scooping some frosting into a squeeze bag and handing it to Jimin.
Ignoring the loud rambling and shouts being thrown back and forth, Jimin put all his focus on decorating the cookies as best as he could. Sticking his tongue out, he slowly drew on a cookie until he was finished, admiring the large, lopsided heart covered in sprinkles. “I did it!” Jimin beamed. “Hyung, look, look. I made this one just for you.” He picked up the cookie, setting it in Yoongi’s hand.
Yoongi smiled and placed a soft kiss on Jimin’s cheek, “It’s beautiful. How can I destroy such artwork by eating it?”
“Take a picture, it’ll last longer.” Jimin grinned before smearing a small amount of pink frosting onto Yoongi’s nose and ran back into the kitchen.
“You can say, he’s whipped frosting now.” Taehyung whispered from behind as Jungkook bent over in laughter over his dumb joke.
“Kinda like when I ate whipped cream off you last night,” Jungkook poked through his laughter.
“I don’t want to fucking hear this,” Yoongi turned and walked over to the kitchen. “Don’t make me stay in there with the kink kings.”
“It’s fine. I’ve had my conversation with Jimin. You can help too if you want. Those cupcakes over there need frosting and sprinkles,” Jin pointed to the opposite counter and handed Yoongi a squeeze bag of frosting.
As Jimin finished the cookies on one of the counters, he moved over to where Yoongi was, standing close beside him, admiring the work he had done so far. “These look wonderful.” Jimin smiled. “Almost as wonderful as you.” He heard Taehyung make gagging noises in the background.
Yoongi ignored Taehyung and pulled Jimin in for a kiss, “Eat one and tell me how well I frosted it.”
Before Jimin could take a cupcake, Hoseok shoved his way between the two and grabbed one of Yoongi’s decorated treats and took a bite out of it. “What? Look, I deserve this after that tragedy I went through.” He whined with his mouth full and left the kitchen as Jimin proceeded to pick up a cupcake and tasted it. “Just as sweet as your sugar lips.” He grinned, extending it toward Yoongi. “Try it!”
Yoongi leaned forward and bit into the cupcake Jimin was holding out for him. Jin really knew how to make a cupcake. He smiled as he chewed and continued to frost the rest of the cupcakes.
When Jimin’s frosting bag was finally empty, he set it aside and took off his apron, admiring the treats he put all his effort into. He pulled out a stool and sat at the kitchen bar, watching Yoongi finish decorating his with dreamy eyes.
“You’re so fucking whipped.” Taehyung whispered in his ear and sat beside him.
“Yeah, I am.” Jimin sighed happily. “Look at him. Have you ever seen someone look so attractive decorating cupcakes?”
Yoongi bumped the side of his hand on a cupcake and accidentally frosted himself. With a mischievous gaze, he looked up at Jimin and proceeded to lick it off slowly.
Jin turned around and caught Yoongi in the act and kicked him out of the kitchen for licking his hands while frosting.
Jimin threw his head back in laughter, smacking Taehyung’s arm as he shouted in protest and smacked Jimin back. “Save your sexual innuendos for later, hyung.” Taehyung stated as Jimin covered up his cheeks, trying to hide the blush that found its way up.
“$90 bucks they won’t make it until tonight.” Hoseok shouted as he entered the kitchen.
“You’re on!” Taehyung shouted.
“Knock it off you two.” Namjoon interrupted, “Don’t you have anything else better to do than bet on their love life? Go take valentine selfies together and bother Jungkook instead. He’s been sitting on the couch by himself for gods sake. What kind of boyfriend are you Taehyung?” He shooed the two away from the kitchen.
He approached Jin, wrapping an arm around his waist. “How are the treats coming along, snookums?”
“Almost done. Just these last dozen cookies, baby cakes.”
“I’m gonna vomit all over my nice clothes,” Yoongi chimed in. “Come on, Jimin. We’re taking a plate of sweets and hiding in my room.”
“Ugh,” Jungkook groaned from the couch, “Why is everyone here so fucking nasty with each other? Save me, Hoseok. Insult my boyfriend!”
Hoseok shrugged innocently. “It’s Valentines day, I don’t know what you’re talking about.” He shook his head as Taehyung jumped onto Jungkook, nuzzling his nose into his hair. “I wuv you soooo much munchkin.”
“Just choke me out and end this,” Jungkook replied with a pained expression on his face.
“Choke you?” Taehyung’s eyebrows rose in surprise. “Well if you want to get kinky here and now,” He grinned. “We can get kinky.”
Hoseok groaned in disgust. “I’ll be at the kitchen table, eating my destroyed chocolates.”
Jimin shoved a cookie in his mouth as he helped Yoongi make a small pile of treats on one of the heart-shaped plates and followed him to his room, shielding his eyes from whatever was possibly happening on the couch. Jimin set the heart plate onto Yoongi’s desk, letting out a sigh of relief. “I love everyone to death, but they can be so exhausting sometimes.”
“I understand. Well, on the bright side, they successfully managed to waste two full hours of our time. Which means, our lunch date will begin soon and then we can check into the hotel and remain alone together until the day after tomorrow.” Yoongi smiled and walked behind Jimin, wrapping his arms around the younger’s waist. “Just the two of us, isn’t that just magical?” He kissed into Jimin’s neck as he finished talking.
“Just the two of us?” He replied with a laugh, “That’s a first.”
Yoongi trailed kisses up Jimin’s jawline, “And definitely not a last.”
A soft sigh escaped from Jimin’s lips and he spun around, wrapping his arms around Yoongi’s neck. He pulled him close, leaving no space between the two and pressed his lips against Yoongi’s. They had done this many times before, but every single time he kissed Yoongi, butterflies grew in his stomach feeling like it was his first all over again.
“We can’t let Hoseok get another $90, now.”
“So we’re making Taehyung rich then?” Jimin pouted.
“Fuck, there’s no winning,” Yoongi grumbled.
“We should start joining these bets, we’re guaranteed to win every time. We’ll make big bucks.” He gave him a mischievous smirk.
“Oh my god, you’re right,” Yoongi chuckled.
“I’ll take you out on hundreds of dates with the money we earn.” Jimin promised with a wide grin. “How great would that be?”
Yoongi smiled and kissed Jimin’s smiling lips, “I want nothing more than our friends to pay for our love.”
“That’s the dream.” Jimin muttered but then was interrupted by a light growl from his stomach. “Oh my god.” He hid his face in embarrassment.
“Babe, you hungry or something? Jeez,” Yoongi chuckled.
“Food has been on my mind ever since you told me about that reservation.” Jimin answered shamelessly. “A guy’s gotta eat, you know?” He stated with a shrug.
Yoongi’s chuckle turned into a chortle, and he hugged Jimin as close to him as he could, “Soon, Jiminnie.”
Jimin let out a whine and grabbed another cookie, shoving one in Yoongi’s mouth as well. He cackled when the cookie left a frosting mustache on his lips. “You should consider growing a mustache, it’s not a bad look.”
“And ruin this perfectly smooth face? I don’t think so. Plus, do you really wanna kiss a hairy face?”
“Who knows, maybe I have a thing for hairy faces and I just don’t know it yet.”
Yoongi scrunched his nose, “Find another man to test this possible kink of yours. I for one will not ruin my good looks for the sake of experimentation.”
“Oh but you’ll let me put my lips on another man?” Jimin teased. “Why don’t I just go ask one of the guys out there, I’m sure they’re willing to be a test subject.”
“If you really want to kiss one of them, go for it. I have nothing to worry about. I know you love me,” Yoongi smiled mischievously.
“Oh?” Jimin rose an eyebrow. “You’re sure about that? So I don’t need to go grab, I don’t know, Hoseok and test this out, just in case?”
Yoongi rolled his eyes, “Yah, Jiminnie.” He pushed Jimin down onto his bed and slotted himself between the younger’s legs. “Stop being a brat.” He wrapped his arms around Jimin’s neck and pulled him in for a deep kiss.
“Nah, I get a kick out of teasing you.” Jimin murmured when their kiss broke and gripped Yoongi’s blouse, capturing his lips again. The feeling was intoxicating and he couldn’t get enough. His sweet lips tasted of sugar and vanilla. Warmth radiated through Jimin’s body, his heart pounding so hard against his chest, he was sure Yoongi could feel it. When Jimin pulled away, gasping for breath, he gazed at Yoongi, taking in his features. His cheeks were flushed, his eyes glazed and lips slightly swollen from their kiss. He lifted his hand, brushing a thumb against his cheek. “You’re so perfect.” He whispered, his lips curling into a small smile.
A fond smile slipped its way onto Yoongi’s face in return, “I know I say this all the fucking time, but I love you so much, Jimin.” He played with the short hairs at the nape of Jimin’s neck and brought their foreheads together, “So so so much.” Yoongi let his eyes close as he breathed in, breath mingling with Jimin’s due to their proximity. “My beautiful Jiminnie.”
“I love you too, Yoongi.” Jimin uttered. “I feel like the luckiest person alive.”
“I know I am the luckiest person alive when I’m with you. You’re like an angel, sent to protect me,” Yoongi mulled, stroking Jimin’s hair as he spoke.
“You have Hoseok to thank for that.” He ran his fingers down Yoongi’s spine, gliding over the silky fabric. “He was the one that wrote your number on a stall. I simply followed with a meme.” His fingers curled against the fabric and he pressed a chaste kiss against his lips.
“He can be best man at our wedding, and I’ll name our first adopted child after him,” Yoongi muttered against Jimin’s lips.
“I’m sure he would love that more than anything else.” Jimin giggled. “Having our own kid named after him. As long as we can name our second one after my precious Taetae.”
“Taehyung doesn’t deserve to have me name my child after him,” Yoongi huffed. “He didn't bring you to me like Hoseok did.”
A laugh escaped from his lips. “Alright, that’s fair. But lets get through this valentines first before we start naming our future children.”
Yoongi chuckled, “I’m getting ahead of myself, I’m sorry baby. I just… I see my future, and you’re right there with me. It’s a new sensation for me.”
“I mean,” Jimin grinned. “It is nice to think about how cute and domestic we’ll look in a little house with screaming children. But if it gets out of control, I’m paying Jin-hyung to be a nanny.”
Yoongi bellowed, “Imagine Jin, coming to our house dressed like fucking Mary Poppins, ‘practically perfect in every way.’”
“He’s got the voice for it too. He can teach the kids supercalifragilisticexpialidocious.”
Yoongi’s smile remained as he imagined the scenario, “I love everything about this future of ours.”
“I love everything about it, and I love everything about you.”
Yoongi’s phone beeped then, signaling his reminder for lunch reservations, “Well, would you look at that. It’s time to head over to the restaurant. Just what you’ve been waiting for.”
“Finally!” Jimin cheered, throwing his arms up in the air. “Let’s go, let’s go, let’s go!” Excitedly, he pulled Yoongi toward the bedroom door, snatching one last cookie along the way.
“Joonie, I’m taking your car, hope you don’t need it!” Yoongi yelled as Jimin pulled him to the front door.
“Remember hyung, condoms for safe sex!” Taehyung shouted across the apartment.
“Safe sex is the best sex!” Jin yelled after.
“Enjoy that big bang, fuckers!” Hoseok screamed.
“Preparation is vital!” Jungkook added on.
“You shouldn’t know this, you’re 12.” Namjoon whacked the kid across his head.
Jungkook rubbed his head where Namjoon hit it, “I’m 20, thank you very much, and I was too eager my first time with Tae Tae and really hurt myself. Prepping yourself is KEY.”
“Oh my god, go be a kid and watch fucking Pororo.” Namjoon groaned.
“I hate this family, Tae Tae doesn’t disrespect me like this,” Jungkook pouted.
Jimin followed Yoongi down to the car, fingers interlocked with his. “We finally escaped from our dysfunctional family.” Jimin giggled, jumping up and down gleefully. “Two whole days together Min Yoongi, two whole days!”
Yoongi grinned as he slid into the driver’s seat and stuck the key in the ignition, turning the car on. “Two fucking days with the love of my life. It doesn’t get better than this, ladies and gents. Also please buckle up, Jiminnie. Seatbelt safety is important.”
“Of course, hyung. We need all sorts of protection today, don’t we?” He sneered, buckling himself into the seat.
“I can’t have the most precious thing in my life get hurt now, can I?”
Jimin’s ears grew red as he bit his lip. As Yoongi pulled out onto the road, Jimin extended his arm toward the radio, turning up the volume. A spanish opera blasted through the speakers and Jimin choked, trying to hold back his laugh. “I always took Namjoon-hyung for a hip hop person, but this is even better.”
“Joonie listens to weird shit. He’s all over the damn place,” Yoongi chuckled. “I suppose that’s a good thing though, to enjoy such a wide range of music.”
Jimin smiled as the spanish opera played softly in the background. He turned his head, watching Yoongi with admiration, his mind reeling back at the little things they’ve done together the past couple of months. It all happened in such a short span of time, but it feels like it’s been years.
Yoongi’s thumb tapped on the steering wheel to the tune of the music, and he had to smile in the tranquility of it all. “Lunch is on me. Order whatever the hell you want. Make yourself happy, Jimin,” Yoongi broke through the silence.
Gasping, Jimin’s eyes glimmered with excitement. “Really? You mean it? Anything?”
“Anything.”
A small squeal of delight escaped from Jimin’s lips. “This is already the best day, ever!” He was already having a hard enough time containing his excitement. The opera eventually came to an end and Lil Wayne followed after.
“See, very diverse.” Yoongi pulled up to the hotel parking lot and into a spot. He killed the engine and got out, walking over to the passenger side to open the door for Jimin. He held his hand out for the younger to take as he helped him out of Namjoon’s car. “Come with me, Mr. Park. Your lunch reservation awaits.”
“Look at you, Min Yoongi.” Jimin gasped. “Be careful,” He leaned in closely, “you’re just making yourself more irresistible by the minute.”
“Maybe that’s my plan,” Yoongi replied with a wink, opening the door so Jimin could walk through first.
Jimin glanced at him with an offended expression, clutching his chest. “How dare you.” He whispered before they walked over to the elevators and Jimin’s eyes went wide as Yoongi hit the button for floor 35. They rode up with an electric excitement bouncing off them.
“I’ve always wanted to bring someone here,” Yoongi whispered even though they were the only two in the elevator. “Always sounded romantic.” The two walked out of the elevator as it reached the 35th floor, and Yoongi held the door once again for Jimin to enter the restaurant. They were greeted by a woman at the front.
“Welcome to Pierre Gagnaire à Séoul,” She greeted with a warm smile. “Have you made a reservation?”
“Yes,” Yoongi responded, walking in behind Jimin. “The name will be Min Yoongi.”
“Right this way,” The maître d' grabbed the menus and mazed through the elegantly decorated restaurant, guiding them to their table. “Here you are.”
Jimin seated himself across from Yoongi, thanking the maître d' before taking a moment to look around, admiring the place. Beside them was a large window with a clear view of the Bukhan mountains beyond the cityscape. The ceiling above them were decorated with glass chandeliers, emitting a dim, amber glow. “This place is amazing Yoongi.” He opened the menu, gaping at the selection it offered. He always admired this place from afar and dreamt of trying their food one day, but he forgot how expensive it was.
“Only the best for you, love,” Yoongi replied with the smile of a man in love.
Jimin smiled warmly and studied the menu, mulling over the choices. “My god, do you even know what you want?”
“Well, we can do chicken or fish. What do you desire?”
“Mmm,” Jimin pondered for a moment. “Fish. Fish sounds wonderful.”
Yoongi hummed in agreement, “Fish it is. Shall we get a wine to go with our meal?”
“Yeah!” Jimin nodded, “It’s not every day you get to try wine in Seoul.”
“It’s imported French wine. Let’s do the white wine. I hear it’s more tasty than red wine.”
“If you say so, then white wine it is.”
Yoongi nodded, and when the waiter came over to take their order, he relayed their choice to him. he smiled and let them know he’d be back with their wine shortly and that he’d bring water glasses over while they waited.
Jimin extended an arm across the table, taking Yoongi’s hand in his, a comfortable silence hanging around them. “What are you thinking about, Min Yoongi?”
“How much I love you,” Yoongi smiled, looking at their intertwined hands. “How happy I am to be here with you. How jealous Jin will be when he hears we ate here, just to name a few things.”
“I bet he’s going to try to drag Namjoon here after we tell him,” He grinned. “Maybe get a few cooking tips out of a chef or two. You know he doesn’t like anyone who cooks better than him.”
Yoongi giggled, “Namjoon is too cheap to come here. There is no way Jin could convince him to waste his money on expensive food.”
“Not only that, but he’s too clumsy. Look around, there’s glass everywhere.”
“Namjoon is the bull in the china shop.”
Jimin covered his mouth, muffling his laughter. “Poor hyung. How Jin controls that beast, I’ll never know.”
“He just has to bat his pretty eyelashes at Joonie and he’s putty in his hands,” Yoongi snorted. “Always been that way.”
“Good,” He smiled. “It gives them both something to do anyway.” The waiter returned with their drinks, pouring the wine into the glasses and left the bottle at the table for them, announcing their food will arrive soon.
Yoongi brought the glass up to his nose and smelled the wine before lowering it to his lips and taking a small taste. He was surprised at the taste, having only ever tasted rice wine before, but it wasn’t a bad difference. “This is pretty good. Try it Jiminnie!”
Jimin grabbed his glass, catching the sweet smell of the wine before taking a small sip. He smacked his lips for a moment, tasting the flavor. “Hyung!” He replied with a surprised expression. “This is really good!”
Yoongi smiled at Jimin adoringly. “I’m glad the wine is good.”
Jimin took a few more sips. “I don’t think I can ever go back to soju after this.” He commented, gently swirling the wine in the glass. “It’s quite refreshing actually, and sweet, like you.” Jimin grinned.
Yoongi snorted, “Don’t get too used to this, love. This is a one-time kinda thing. Otherwise it’s not special, yeah?”
“Of course, but it’s so special that I’ll think about this wine every time I take a shot of soju, most likely for the rest of my life. Say, let’s come back on our 100 year anniversary.” Jimin laughed. “That’s far out enough, right?”
Yoongi laughed, “How about our golden anniversary? Nothing says 50 sweet years together like a nice rosé.”
Jimin’s eyes widened in delight. “That’s even better! It’s 50 years sooner!”
Yoongi smiled, “It is better, isn’t it? 50 years with you would be amazing.”
“There’s so much we have to do before our 50th anniversary!” Jimin exclaimed, growing excited as ideas ran through his mind. “So many things like...like traveling to other countries, or trying all the cafes in Seoul, or flying kites. Or make paintings for each other!”
Yoongi couldn’t hold back the laughter that overtook him as he watched Jimin’s face light up at the different ideas soaring through his head. “Those are all very good anniversary ideas, Jimminie.”
“That’s only 50 anniversaries.” Jimin signed, growing overwhelmed. “But I have hundreds of ideas, how do I even fit them all…”
“Then we celebrate every single month we are together!” Yoongi exclaimed. “That way, you can multiply 50 by 12 and have that many moreanniversaries.”
Jimin’s smile widened at the idea. “It’s perfect! On the 15th of every month, you’re mine for the whole day.”
Yoongi’s smile softened, “Hopefully someday the 15th won’t be the only day you’re mine for 24 hours.”
“Here’s to letting that someday come as soon as possible.” Jimin lifted his glass in the air. “With frequent interruptions from our lovely dysfunctional family.”
Yoongi softly clanked his glass against Jimin’s and took a sip of wine. “You know, you look so good in here. The fancy atmosphere makes you look like a lord or something. It’s damn sexy.”
Jimin leaned back, resting an arm against the head of the chair and crossed his leg, smirking. “Sexy, you say?” He subtly licked his lips and wriggled his eyebrows.
“Woah, baby. Save it for the bedroom,” Yoongi chided, nearly choking on his wine. “I’d rather like to make it through lunch without any issues.”
Jimin’s snigger faded the instant he spotted the waiter arriving to their table with the food. Gasping in awe, Jimin watched the waiter set the plates down and quietly thanked him. “Is this food or is this art? Wait!” He pulled out his phone, turning on the camera to take a picture. “I gotta do it for the ‘gram” He muttered under his breath and quickly snapped a photo. “It looks delicious...let’s eat!” Jimin picked up his fork but couldn’t get himself to touch his lunch. “It’s so pretty, I don’t want to ruin it.”
Yoongi chuckled and stabbed a bite onto his fork, guiding it towards Jimin’s mouth, “Take a bite, baby.”
Jimin took a bite, chewing the food slowly. “It’s so good! Try it!” He jabbed the fish onto his fork and hovered it toward Yoongi. “The best fish I’ve had yet.”
Yoongi smiled and let Jimin feed him. Jimin was correct. The fish was delicious. “Yah, that’s so damn good. What the fuck.”
Jimin lightly slapped his arm. “Yoongi!” He hissed quietly, laughing. “Watch your language, this is a fancy place. But you know, I completely agree. This is fucking delicious.” He whispered, making sure no one heard.
“Yah, I’m a man with a refined vocabulary. All the fancy people say things like ‘fuck’ and ‘damn’ to indicate their emotions,” Yoongi joked, taking another bite of food. “But yeah, definitely don’t get used to this place, Jiminnie. Shit’s expensive for the portions we got.”
“You’re right.” He glanced down at his place. “It’s like the size of your emotional capacity. A teaspoon.”
Yoongi nearly died trying to contain the food in his mouth while also trying to hold back a snort, and ended up choking on his fish. “Holy fuck I wasn’t ready for that,” He cried, gulping down water to help clear his esophagus. “You fucking bastard, how dare you go there.”
Jimin grinned proudly, taking another bite of his small dinner.
“Well, at least we won’t be eating a lot. That means there won’t be a lot to digest, which will mean whoever ends up taking it in the ass tonight should have clear passageways,” Yoongi concluded with a sly grin, patiently waiting Jimin’s response.
Loud coughs erupted from Jimin as he choked on his fish, disrupting the peaceful atmosphere of the restaurant. He waved apologetically to a waiter who shot concerned glances at him and chugged down his water. “You little shit.” He murmured, glaring at Yoongi. “Ruining such a beautiful moment between me and my dinner. Jesus.”
Yoongi just chuckled, “Sorry, I just wanted to get a reaction out of you.”
“Yeah and you got the whole restaurant’s attention too.”
“Ah, but only you heard what I said,” Yoongi winked.
Jimin’s ears grew hot as he resumed eating, trying to look anywhere but at the man in front of him.
“Aw, baby, did I embarrass you?” Yoongi asked, concern on his face. “I’m sorry, it was a joke. A really bad sexual joke.” He placed a hand on top of Jimin’s free one.
“No I just, i mean, thinking about tonight I-” He stammered.
“Jimin, if you’re not ready, we don’t have to do anything,” Yoongi reassured him. “There is absolutely zero pressure. If we kiss and cuddle all night, then we kiss and cuddle all night and that’s that. I just want to spent my nights with you next to me. That’s all I need.”
“I know,” Jimin smiled softly. “and that’s what I love about you. But it’s not even that, I just...there’s no one else in the world I’d rather do it with than you.
Yoongi sent Jimin a warm smile, “You set the pace these next two days.”
“Thank you, Yoongi.”
Yoongi finished his meal and watched Jimin finish his, “Hey, beautiful.” He smiled at the boy across from him, completely enamoured by him.
“Hey, Mr. handsome and stoic.” Jimin replied. “How was your teaspoon?”
“Delicious. Yours?”
“Absolutely amazing!” He exclaimed and picked up his glass, finishing the last of the sweet wine. “This was actually the greatest idea ever. Best Valentines day I’ve ever had, thank you for taking me here, hyung.”
“Anything for my Jiminnie,” Yoongi smiled. The waiter came back with their dessert, clearing their lunch plates to make room for the sweets. Yoongi smiled in thanks and grabbed his spoon to start eating.
“Wait!” Jimin stopped him immediately. “Hold on,” He pulled out his phone again, getting the camera set up.
Yoongi smiled as he watched Jimin take a photo of the food.
“Smile, Min Yoongi!” He held the phone up in the air, trying to get the two with a clear view of the restaurant in the background.
Yoongi shot Jimin one of his wide, gummy smiles.
As Yoongi resumed with the dessert, Jimin snapped a candid of him, smiling bashfully to himself. He wanted to freeze this moment and live in it forever, sitting at a table in Pierre Gagnaire à Séoul with the man he loves right in front of him. There was no other feeling he could compare it to. He put away his phone and grabbed a spoon, joining Yoongi.
The two sat in silence as they finished their desserts. It was a comfortable silence that Yoongi didn’t feel the need to interrupt for any reason.
Jimin set the spoon on the empty, glass dish with a soft clink and let out a satisfied sigh. “For something so small, everything had so much flavor in it.” He rested his chin in his hands. “Is it possible to thank you for this again, and a million times over?”
Yoongi smiled, “Of course. Just wait until we get to the room. You’ll be thanking me for other reasons too.”
“Oh?” Jimin perked up, raising his eyebrows in curiosity. “What other reasons?”
“We’re in a junior suite. It’s not exactly the royal suite, but it’s a fucking nice room with a big bed and a nice ass bathroom with a bathtub, and there’s space so like if you wanna dance around the suite you can,” Yoongi beamed.
“Space?!” Jimin gaped. “A big bed? Well if this room is that great, then by all means, where’s the check?” He scanned around the restaurant for their waiter. “I need to see this for myself. Excuse me!” He waved down the waiter, requesting their check.
The waiter came back over a moment later with the check, and Yoongi brought the check up to the cashier with a smile, paying for the dinner and thanking the cashier after the food was paid for. The two made their way out of the restaurant and back down to the receptionist to check into their room. Yoongi smiled at the girl as they walked up to the counter, “Hello, are you checking in?” she asked with a warm smile.
Yoongi nodded, “Yeah, Min Yoongi.”
“One moment while I search for your booking,” she smiled as she started typing onto the computer. “Min Yoongi, two nights in the junior suite?” She asked.
“Yeah, that’s me.”
“Fantastic. It looks like your room is ready! You’ll be on the club floor, 30, room 3069.” She slid a set of room keys over the counter and a small map of the building. Yoongi heard Jimin snickering behind him as the receptionist told them their room number. He held back a snicker himself, and accepted the keys from her. “Checkout is at 11am on the last day. Enjoy your stay with us.”
Jimin couldn’t hold in his excitement as he bounced beside Yoongi, nudging him toward the elevators. But as they walked toward them, Jimin took a moment to look around, admiring all the details surrounding them. The entire reception had a calming amber glow to it, one of the entire walls in the lobby was replaced with glass, showcasing a large waterfall. In the room were tables scattered around and a grand, pure white piano. “Look,” Jimin tugged on Yoongi’s sleeve. “The piano there, you should play it during our stay.”
“Should I play your song for everyone to hear?”
“Would you?” Jimin asked, his eyes glimmering with hope.
“I’d do most anything you’d ask me to do,” Yoongi smiled, taking Jimin’s hand into his own.
Jimin grinned and left a light kiss on his cheek as they continued across the lobby.
“Floor 30, huh. That’ll be one hell of a view,” Yoongi mused, walking into the elevator.
“We’ll be able to see most of Myeongdong,” Jimin stated. “And Namsan tower!”
“Woah, that will look so pretty at night. Too bad I have a better view right in front of me and won’t be looking outside too much.”
“I know, I know.” Jimin struck several different poses dramatically in the elevator. “Look at this body. No one can resist.” He teased, slipping off his velvet jacket halfway, and winked, a small bit of his shoulders showing.
“You’re making this the hardest elevator ride ever, Jimin,” Yoongi whined, noticing they were only passing floor 20. “I for one am finding it extremely hard to resist.”
Jimin pulled back up his jacket, giggling as his eyes turned into crescents. “I’m sorry, hyung. You’re just too easy to tease.” He leaned against his shoulder, batting his eyelashes at him.
The elevator finally dinged, signalling their arrival to the 30th floor. Yoongi grabbed Jimin’s hand and pulled him out of the elevator. They were nearly running down the hallways, looking for room 3069. Jimin let out a yelp when he found it and pulled Yoongi back so he could open the door. Yoongi stuck the keycard in, and opened the door to their suite. He made his way over to the bed and threw himself on the pillowy surface.
“Yoongi, this place is gorgeous!” He shouted, his eyes widening in surprise. The room had a small wall in the middle of the area, splitting the bedroom from the living room. In the living room was a giant window that overlooked the city with the Namsan tower on a mountain behind it all. There was a small leather couch in the room, just big enough for the the two of them and a tv perched on the wall. The bedroom contained a carefully made queen bed with a lamp on a nightstand on each side of the bed and door that led to the bathroom. But Yoongi was right about their room, there was so much space that he could dance across the floor without bumping into anything.
With a squeal, Jimin ran and flew onto the bed, landing beside Yoongi and buried his face in one of the plush pillows. “It’s perfect,” Jimin smiled, rolling around the large bed, ruining the work that went into the folded blankets. “It’s absolutely perfect.”
“Nothing but perfection for the perfect man,” Yoongi smiled, pulling Jimin against him.
“You spoil me rotten, Min Yoongi. What did I do to deserve you?” He curled up close against Yoongi, their legs tangled, their noses inches apart as he brushed his fingers along Yoongi’s cheek.
Yoongi leaned into the touch, “Whatever you did, I’m glad you did it. Because I certainly don’t deserve you.”
Jimin leaned forward, pressing a soft kiss against his lips and smiled, staring into Yoongi’s dark eyes as if they carried the entire world. “I love you.” He whispered so quietly, it was almost inaudible. “I don’t think you understand how much you changed my life in such a short span of time. There’s no one else out there that could do this, even if they tried. Before I met you I...I really just holed myself away in the dance room. I didn’t have the energy to do much else, I just dedicated my whole life to getting into this school. Except for my dance team and Hoseok-hyung, because I was already around them all the time, I didn’t make the time to make new friends or go out anywhere. Actually, that day I texted you, I was hiding in the bathroom stall to avoid a dinner night with them and a couple of their friends.” Jimin went on, letting his words spill. “I don’t know, wasn’t something I usually do, I just saw the little scribble on the stall and thought, maybe this guy is like me, let me send a funny picture and make them laugh.” He shrugged, a light chuckle escaping his lips.
“I’m so glad you did, baby. I was so fucking depressed. You know about my loveless childhood, and all that sad shit. It really messes with you mentally when your parents are shit at loving you.” Yoongi stroked Jimin’s hair as he spoke, gaining comfort from the soft locks. “Even living with Joonie and Jin wasn’t really enough to get me out of my depression pit. I guess Hoseok was finally done dealing with my sad ass and hoped someone would answer his pleading call for help. Then you came along.” Yoongi smiled and kissed the tip of Jimin’s nose. “And you wiggled your way into my life, and somehow you captured my heart along the way. Baby I hated living before I met you, and now I don’t go a day without thinking about how lucky I am to be alive.” He placed a soft kiss on Jimin’s forehead. “I love you so much. More than you can know.”
Yoongi’s words made Jimin’s chest clench as he slid his arms around his neck, pulling him into an embrace. “I know some people hate hearing this kind of thing,” He combed his fingers through his hair. “but I’m so sorry you felt this way Yoongi, I’m so sorry you had to even experience that kind of feeling, ever.” He sniffled quietly, feeling a single tear roll down his cheek. “If Hoseok-hyung wanted us to meet so badly, he could have just forced your number in my hands forever ago. He wouldn’t stop rambling about you for the longest time.” He laughed quietly. “Funny how fate works out in the end.
“My god, all he ever did when we were together was talk about ‘Park Jimin’ this and ‘Park Jimin’ that, and how good of a dancer this kid was,” Yoongi let out a soft chuckle. “It kinda pissed me off. But he was right about everything. You are amazing.” Yoongi took hold of Jimin’s chin and pulled the younger boy’s face closer to his, making it easier to close the distance between their lips. “I love you,” he mumbled against Jimin’s mouth.
He sighed against his lips, a bundle of warmth spreading from his chest. Jimin couldn’t explain the feeling that rushed through him from Yoongi’s touch, even if it was the lightest one, like a feather. It could be a rush of adrenaline coursing through his veins or just purely bliss from lying beside the man he loves with his whole heart. He loved every second of it though.
Jimin ran his hands along his spine and murmured soft ‘I love yous’ between each break they took for air. He felt so much more than those three simple words toward Yoongi though, but he had no other way to tell him than by just saying ‘I love you’ over and over.
Yoongi sat up to take his jacket off, since the garment was restricting his ability to move his arms freely, and tossed it onto the back of the nearest chair. He finessed this all without breaking contact with Jimin’s lips, too greedy to let a moment go by without the feel of Jimin’s lips against his.
Jimin’s velvet jacket joined Yoongi’s on the chair seconds later, snaking his arms around his waist and pulling him closer, if it was even possible. He tilted his head, trailing light kisses down his neck, careful as if Yoongi was the most delicate thing in his arms. He may have had that headstrong personality, but his light skin and smaller, intricate frame gave him an appearance that of a porcelain doll. When Jimin’s lips brushed below his ear, he whispered sweet little nothings to him, a soft smile growing across his lips. All Jimin wanted to do was shower Yoongi with affection and for him to understand that he was really, truly loved.
Yoongi let a soft moan escape his lips as Jimin started sucking on the sensitive spot behind his ear. They had made out multiple times before, but it was never this intimate. Yoongi tried to find his voice as Jimin kept sucking and biting on his delicate skin. “Ji-Jimin, baby. That feels so good.”
“Good,” Jimin murmured. “You deserve to feel good. You deserve to be happy.” He smiled as their lips met again, his fingers curling into the fabric of his silky shirt.
“Jimin,” Yoongi said between breaths, “I want you so bad. Baby, please.”
“Do you?” Jimin gasped as he pulled away for just a moment, admiring the man he loved in front of him, their cheeks flushed and their breaths heavy.
“I do, Jimin. I do,” he breathed, tangling his hands in Jimin’s hair. “I want to show you just how much I love you.”
“So do I.” Jimin replied softly, gently pushing Yoongi down on the bed, mounting himself between his hips. “I want you to be mine and mine only, Min Yoongi.” He leaned forward, their lips locked. Every kiss had a raw intensity to it, hearts racing, soft moans of pleasure escaping their lips and electricity running through their skin. Their bodies melded together in the blissful evening, completely and utterly drunk with love for each other.
∆ ∆ ∆
Jimin opened his eyes to the faint glow of the morning light threatening to peek through the curtains and tilted his head up toward Yoongi, smiling at his sleeping expression. His features were softened, his mouth slightly agape, making him look peaceful and childlike, only for Jimin’s eyes to see. His heart filled with so much happiness, he swore it was going to explode.
Under the blankets, their legs were tangled and their skin were covered in marks of love. Jimin nestled himself against Yoongi’s warm skin, resting his cheek against his shoulder, his fingers grazing over his collarbone. He felt so wholesome and complete in his arms.
Yoongi shifted and pulled Jimin closer to him, craving the skin-to-skin contact as he found himself stirring awake. “Morning, love,” Yoongi mumbled, leaving soft kisses along Jimin’s skin.
“Good morning, sugar lips.” Jimin smiled. “Sleep well?” He brushed the messy hair out of Yoongi’s eyes, looking at him fondly.
“Jiminnie, I haven’t slept this well since Christmas.”
“I agree with this.” He replied, “It’s so peaceful here too. Let’s just move into this room and stay here forever.” Jimin nuzzled his nose into the crook of his neck. “I’ll be content with that.”
Yoongi chuckled and kissed the top of jimin’s hair, “Baby, if I could afford to live in this hotel, I would move us the fuck here at the drop of a hat.”
Jimin smiled at his words. “Two days here is going to feel like a lifetime. We still have a whole anniversary date ahead of us and an entire hotel to explore.” He paused for a moment. “Speaking of which, happy two months honey.”
Yoongi smiled and rolled over so he was hovering over Jimin, straddling his hips, “And what a happy two months its been.”
“The happiest I’ve ever been. Here’s to more happy months.” He gave him a toothy grin.
Yoongi leaned down and took Jimin’s lips into his own, not even caring the two of them had morning breath. He worked the kiss slowly until he could coax his tongue into Jimin’s mouth. Yoongi let his hands get tangled in Jimin’s already wild hair, and pulled Jimin’s body as close to his as possible. “I love you,” he whispered as they briefly parted to breathe.
Jimin whimpered quietly under his touch, his skin growing hot. “It’s so early, sugar lips.” He chuckled under his breath. “I never took you for a morning person.”
“Baby, I’m a morning noon and night kinda guy,” Yoongi chuckled.
“That explains why you don’t get enough sleep unlike a normal person.” He teased, sticking his tongue out.
“Let my zombie-ass live. I don’t need this negativity.”
Jimin burst out in laughter. “Is sugar lips feeling salty?” He cooed, pinching his cheek. “You’re mine, so I’m allowed to tease you as much as I want.”
Yoongi smiled, “Ah but it goes both ways, my Jiminnie.”
“That’s fair.” Jimin’s eyes formed into crescents as he lifted his head, pressing a kiss against his forehead.
“I don’t know what you have planned for the daytime, but I vote we just lounge naked in bed until the concert.”
“That sounds like the perfect plan,” Jimin nodded, shooting him a thumbs up. “I’m all for naked lounging.”
Yoongi smiled wide and nuzzled his face into the crook of Jimin’s neck, “This is honestly so perfect.”
Jimin closed his eyes, the two of them laying under the blankets in a comfortable silence. Before he completely drifted off, a loud buzzing echoed from the nightstand, disrupting the peace. Jimin reached out with a groan, grabbing his phone and looked at the bright screen, temporarily blinding him in the dark room. A picture of Taehyung’s nostrils covered the screen as Jimin rolled his eyes, swiping the green button.
“Do you not understand what peace is, Taetae?” Jimin answered, mumbling as he stroked Yoongi’s hair.
“Put me on speaker.”
Jimin pressed the speaker button on his phone and held it in the air. “What is it?”
“DID YOU DO THE FUCK?” He screamed, his voice echoing loudly in the hotel room. “I can’t believe you stopped in the middle of a blow job to call them.” They heard Jungkook whine in the background as Jimin let out a snort, listening to the two bicker on the other line.
“Just hang up, baby. I don’t wanna deal with Tae right now,” Yoongi whined. “This is our time together.”
“You hear that, Taetae? My man wants some peace.”
“Yah, I’m getting blue balls here!” They heard Jungkook yell in the background. “Tae, baby, you need to finish me off.”
“Oh my god, Jimin hang up,” Yoongi groaned.
Jimin laughed so hard, tears pooled at his eyes. “Go take care of Kook, Tae.” He hung up the phone as Taehyung shouted incoherently and tossed the phone back onto the night stand. “They’re so ridiculous.” He wheezed, wiping away the tears. “Why am I friends with him?”
“Ditch him and come live with me,” Yoongi smiled, rubbing circles into Jimin’s waist with his thumb. “The pros are: you get to live with me and do whatever you want whenever you want with me, and you won’t live with that mess anymore. There are literally no cons, only pros.”
“You’re right,” Jimin agreed. “Kook and Tae practically live together now. What’s stopping me from living with you?”
“What, indeed,” Yoongi murmured, leaning down to leave a bruise on Jimin’s collarbone. “We could do this anytime. Fuck, I could wake up with you in my arms every day. You know, that’s my dream, Jimin.”
“You know I’d do anything to help make your dreams come true, hyung.” Jimin beamed. “I don’t think this one will be too difficult to accomplish.”
Yoongi perked up and hoisted himself onto his elbows, “Wait, you mean it? You’d live with me?”
Jimin reached a hand out, brushing a thumb along his cheek. He bit his lip and nodded. “There’s nothing else I’d love more.” Their eyes locked in a gaze as he gave him a warm smile, so ridiculously in love.
“Holy fuck. I mean, you’ll live with me, Jin and Namjoon, but they like never leave Jin’s room now so it’s not like there’s anyone to disturb us. Plus you get Jin’s cooking. That’s another pro of living with me.”
“Well I mean,” Jimin shrugged. “That is one of the major reasons I’d move in without hesitation. I mean-besides you of course! But you already knew that. But Jin’s food…” He swallowed, drooling over the thought of his cooking. “Hot, fresh breakfast every morning…”
“After some hot fresh morning sex, god what a perfect life,” Yoongi joked around.
Jimin rolled his eyes, giggling. “You’re getting ahead of yourself, hyung.”
“So you’re telling me that you wouldn’t want to do everything we did last night every morning?” Yoongi challenged.
“Well, I-you know,” Jimin stammered, unable to hide his grin and swatted Yoongi’s arm in embarrassment. “I mean, if that’s how our mornings went down, I wouldn’t complain.”
Yoongi smiled, “Only if we both want our mornings to start like that.” He leaned back down against Jimin’s chest and kissed his forehead. “But I’m just really happy you said yes to my request. I thought you would think I was moving things too fast.”
“If I had thought you were going fast, I wouldn’t be lying here buck naked.” He laughed. “But here we are. The only difficult thing about this is having to tell my clingy roommate.”
Yoongi reached over and grabbed Jimin’s phone, opening it up to his last conversation with Taehyung.

“What are you doing, hyung?” Jimin asked, his eyebrows rose in curiosity.
“I’m letting Tae know you don’t live with him anymore,” Yoongi smiled.
“How’s Tae handling that?”
“He’s in the acceptance phase. Jin’s cooking is a truly powerful bargaining piece.”
“That was faster than I expected,” Jimin grinned, pulling the phone out of Yoongi’s hand. “Well that settles it then, we got through the hardest part.” He tossed the phone aside, ignoring the buzzes of incoming messages from Taehyung and slid his arms around Yoongi’s neck, leaving a chaste kiss on his lips. “Here’s to this 24/7.”
“My god, do you know how happy I am? I get to leave this hotel with you tomorrow, and you will literally come home with me,” Yoongi grinned.
“That’s the plan.” Jimin beamed, “I’ll have my things moved over by the end of this week. But on one condition.”
“Anything.”
“Please, for the love of god, let me baby proof the house. I can’t live with the anxiety thinking Namjoon is going to break a bone or two running into something.”
“Oh my god. I think he’d hurt himself even more trying to figure out baby locks,” Yoongi chuckled.
“Damn, you’re right. He’d probably break those baby locks without trying.”
Yoongi laughed, stroking Jimin’s hair, “He’s lived a solid 23 years, I think he’ll be fine.”
“Then by all means, I’m set.”
Yoongi leaned in to kiss Jimin deeply, pulling his body flush against Jimin’s. One lick across Jimin’s bottom lip had the younger boy opening his mouth for Yoongi to lick into, causing Jimin’s hold around his neck to tighten. Yoongi let his hands trail from Jimin’s hair back down to his waist, gripping onto Jimin’s firm sides as they kissed. Yoongi’s thigh brushed up against Jimin’s exposed™ dick, and he could feel the younger man start to harden. He broke the kiss, panting heavily against Jimin’s neck “We should stop before you get too excited. You’re probably sore from last night. I mean, unless, you want to of course.”
Jimin whimpered under his breath, last night definitely left him sore, but Yoongi’s touch was so intoxicating, so addicting, he couldn’t get enough of it. “Just...one more kiss.” He breathed, drawing Yoongi back in, closing off the space between the two.
Yoongi complied with ease, moving his mouth against Jimin’s with urgency. His mouth eventually trailed off of Jimin’s and down his jaw, pausing momentarily where his jaw and neck collide to leave a small mark. Once he was content with the little bruise, he continued kissing down Jimin’s neck, leaving soft ‘I love you’s’ on his skin as he went.
Jimin’s fingers curled up in his hair, tilting his head. “Y-Yoongi…” He sighed, his skin growing hot from the contact.
Yoongi continued kissing down past Jimin’s collarbones and between his pectorals, resisting the urge to move slightly left or right and grab one of Jimin’s nipples between his teeth. He followed Jimin’s happy trail down to his navel and moved his mouth over to Jimin’s hip bone, beginning to leave a mark there as well.
“Yoongi...hyung, please.” Jimin trembled.
“Please what,” Yoongi asked, looking up at Jimin with hooded eyes.
“Please just, fuck me.” He begged, his voice shaking.
Yoongi smiled and brought himself back up to meet Jimin’s face, “Baby, I know you’re not ready for anal sex again.” He leaned in for a kiss, “But I can help you get off.” His hand moved from Jimin’s waist and brushed up against Jimin’s dick. “Would you like that, baby?”
“Yes hyung, please.” His body hitched at the touch, soft moans of desperation escaping his lips.
Yoongi smiled and brought his hand up to his mouth and spit in it, “I’m sorry baby. I have to use my spit as lube again.” He brought his hand back down and wrapped it around Jimin’s erect cock. “We’ll make sure to bring it tonight when we go back to our place for clothes and food. How’s that sound, baby? Honestly, we’re lucky I stashed a condom in my jacket pocket.” Yoongi purred, slowly pumping Jimin as he spoke.
“O-our place...I like the sound of that.” Jimin struggled to keep his words together.
“God Jimin, hearing you say our place is almost orgasmic,” Yoongi cooed, pumping Jimin to the pace of his light hip thrusts. “Tell me what we will do together in our place.” Yoongi grabbed hold of his own dick, which had been pleading for attention since he started hardcore making out with Jimin and paced himself with Jimin’s rhythm.
Jimin dug his fingers into Yoongi’s skin, his back arching as electricity rushed through his veins. “We,” He inhaled, trying to find his voice. “We’ll do a terrible job trying to cook food,” A chuckle escaped his lips. “We’ll read books on the couch on rainy days. Sit by the fireplace when it snows.”
Yoongi smiled and took Jimin’s lips between his, “What else baby?”
“We’ll adopt a dog, a little puppy and raise it ourselves. I’ll make you coffee every morning before I go to class. I’ll give you blow jobs while you’re trying to compose music.” Jimin teased, a smirk growing across his lips.
Yoongi moaned at the thought of Jimin sucking him off in his private music room, and quickened his pace, leading them both close to their high. “Baby that sounds so fucking beautiful.”
“We’re gonna be so fucking domestic,” A whimper escaped his lips, his body slowly reaching its limit. “In our house.”
“Fuck,” Yoongi moaned, his cock threatened to spill its load as Jimin -- with a shaky voice -- said ‘our house’ again. “Baby I’m so close, Keep talking to me baby, your voice is all I need,” Yoongi commanded.
“I love you Min Yoongi,” He cried, a shudder rushing down his spine. “I love you so much and I can’t wait to do all these things with you and outdo how domestic our roommates are. I’ll spend every single day making you smile and tell you how much I love you and how much you deserve to be the happiest person in the world.”
Yoongi’s lips found Jimin’s as he harshly kissed the man under him, and brought them both to climax.
Cries escaped from Jimin as his body convulsed from the release. “Yoongi, fuck…” He panted, their eyes meeting as Jimin studied his features. His fingers grazed over Yoongi’s swollen lips and gave him the faintest grin. With a push, he flipped the two around so Yoongi was flat on the bed with Jimin lying on top. He leaned forward, sending trails of kisses down to the nape of his neck, leaving a few more love marks to add to the growing collection scattered across his delicate skin.
“Jimin, baby. I love you,” Yoongi breathed, his fingers tangling in Jimin’s hair as the younger kissed and nipped at his neck. “I love you so much, my heart might burst.”
Jimin left another bruise on the collarbone and lifted his head with a small smile. He leaned in, their noses brushing. “I love you too, Min Yoongi. My Yoongi.” He whispered, pressing a soft kiss on his lips. “I’m gonna go shower. I need to get all this off me” Jimin grinned, gesturing to his stomach. “And as wonderful as it sounds to lay here all day, we’re going to need to eat at some point. Especially after that teaspoon sized dinner last night. Besides, this place has a buffet!” He squealed. “All you can eat!” He pulled up the warm blanket, wrapping it over his head and body and hopped off the bed.
“Oh, shower time?” Yoongi smiled, following Jimin out of bed. “The only activity that could be better than sleeping with you is showering with you.” Jimin rolled his eyes, but didn’t stop Yoongi from walking into the bathroom with him.
“You’re a clingy one, aren’t you?” Jimin giggled as he started the shower and wiped his stomach with tissues, Yoongi’s following his. While waiting for it to heat up, He pulled the blanket closer against his skin as they stood in the cold bathroom. “I’m not gonna lie, I kinda like it.”
Yoongi smiled and wrapped his arms around Jimin, “Good. Because I’m stuck to you like the annoying piece of gum on the bottom of your shoe.”
“But a lot less annoying,” Jimin stated, stepping into the hot shower with Yoongi following behind, mentally thanking the hotel for always having shampoo and soap in stock since they forgot literally everything. He proceeded to wash himself off and playfully rubbed the shampoo into Yoongi’s hair, attempting to make a mohawk as he burst into laughter.
“I feel like Jimmy Neutron,” Yoongi mumbled as his hair flopped into his forehead. He poured shampoo on his hand and turned around to face Jimin, generously lathering his head.
“An attractive Jimmy Neutron, might I add.” Jimin pointed out, wiping the bubbles away from his face.
Yoongi booped Jimin’s nose, leaving a soapy snout behind, “Hell yeah I am.”
After the two finished washing up and making mustaches out of bubbles, they stepped out of the shower, the bathroom foggy from the steam. Jimin buried his face into a fluffy towel, drying himself. “God,” He mumbled. “Even the towels here feel like luxury. Do you think they’ll track me down if I steal one for myself?”
“They’ll probably just add it to the room charge,” Yoongi shrugged, toweling his hair dry.
“Damn, it’ll probably be expensive too.” Jimin went back out the bedroom, a groan escaping his lips as he scanned the mess of clothes scattered across the floor. “We were so hasty...we even forgot a change of clothes.” He laughed to himself. “Hyung, now we really got to go back to our place and get our things.”
Yoongi chuckled, pulling his pants on, “Yeah, let’s go. I can’t justify going to see Fall Out Boy in this fucking suit. Let’s put like jeans on,” Yoongi smiled, holding his hand out for Jimin to take.
Jimin finished putting on his suit from the night before and reached his hand out, their fingers intertwining as they left the hotel room, Jimin quickly snatching their card key beforehand. “I second this, as much as we both know I look hot in this suit, it gets so uncomfortable. I need my comfy sweater.” Jimin pouted, following Yoongi down the hall until they reached the elevator. “Oh, I forgot to mention before, but I bought a little something for us.”
Yoongi perked an eyebrow, “Oh?”
Jimin grinned as the elevator doors opened, pulling Yoongi in with him. “You’ll see, I left it in my bag back at our place.” The metal doors closed and Jimin’s eyes rose in surprise at their reflection, their necks covered in bruises, obvious ones. “Oh my god hyung, look at us.” He pointed out. “Taetae is never going to let me live this down.”
“Flaunt it. Rub it in his face. I dunno.” Yoongi shoved his free hand into his pocket and clicked his tongue. “Don’t let it embarrass you.”
“Oh I won’t,” Jimin grinned. “I’ll make sure the whole world sees this. It’s not a bad look.”
“I think it looks hot,” Yoongi smirked, reaching over to lightly stroke Jimin’s neck.
“Full credits to you.” He beamed as the elevator slowly made its way to the first floor. “I can get used to this.”
“Good,” Yoongi smiled and pressed a kiss to Jimin’s cheek. “This is us now.”
“Ohhhhh, I can’t wait to tell Jin!” Jimin exclaimed as the elevator doors opened up to the lobby. “I’m practically a son of his. I’ll finally be living with my parents.” The two exited the hotel toward Namjoon’s car.
Yoongi rolled his eyes and gave Jimin a fond smile, “Well, at least you’re excited.” They walked up to Namjoon’s car, and Yoongi opened the door for Jimin. The younger boy slid into the passenger seat and buckled himself in. Yoongi leaned down for a quick kiss before he shut the door and walked over to the driver side. “Off to fetch our luggage!” He exclaimed, turning the key in the ignition.
Jimin smiled as the rap that was last playing faded and Beethoven’s 5th Symphony came on. He stifled his laughter, baffled by the variety of music that Namjoon had. Their drive home was a comfortable silence with the music softly playing in the background. As they reached their house, Jimin jumped out of the car and ran into the house screaming. “Mom, dad, I’m home!”
Jin pokes his head out of the kitchen, “I thought you two were on a romantic getaway.”
“We were,” Yoongi chuckled. “But it seems we forgot to grab our overnight bags in our haste to leave yesterday.”
“I thought I raised you two better than this,” Jin sighed.
Jimin gave him an innocent shrug. “I was a little excited okay. But mom, mom, guess what!”
Jin arched an eyebrow, “You had sex?”
Jimin coughed violently. “Um, that’s not what I was going to say, but this decision was made shortly afterwards in fact!”
“Hmm, well first I hope you two followed my instruction and practiced safe sex,” Jin said with a faux scold. “But, what else happened, Jiminnie?”
“I’m moving in!’ Jimin shouted, throwing his arms in the air excitedly. “Your son is living here now!”
Jin looks wide-eyes from Jimin to Yoongi, “You’re moving in, huh?”
“And paying my portion of rent, don’t you worry. I’ll even chip in on your groceries!” He leaned in. “Cause god knows both of these boys have a tendency to forget about paying for your culinary skills.” Jimin whispered
“Actually, Yoongi is a big help in the kitchen. You found yourself a man who can cook nearly as good as I can,” Jin replied, loud enough for Yoongi to hear.
“What?” Jimin whipped his head around dramatically. “My Yoongi can cook? Hyung, why didn’t you ever tell me!”
“There’s never been a reason to,” Yoongi shrugged.
“I thought-but-damn...you’re right.” His eyebrows rose. “Hyung will you make me food as a welcoming gift?” He batted his eyelashes, wrapping his arms around one of Yoongi’s. “I want to try hyung’s cooking.”
Yoongi looked over to Jimin with a soft smile on his lips, “Anything you want, love.”
“My God, you are so fucking whipped.” Jin laughed.
“Leave my man alone, he’s cute when he’s like this.” Jimin defended, his eyes forming into crescents when he gave Yoongi a wide smile. “Soft Yoongi is my favorite Yoongi.”
“Okay, but my question is, how soft is he in bed?” Jin questioned. “Seems like he’d be rough and dominating.”
Jimin’s ears turned red. “That’s only for me to know and for you to never find out.” He teased, grinning. “There are just some things you’ll have to rely on your imagination for.”
“Except me fucking you. Don’t imagine that,” Yoongi pointed to Jin with a frown.
Jimin snorted as Namjoon wandered into the room, clad in underwear and his hair ruffled, rubbing his eyes tiredly. “Honey bunny buns, what’s all the ruckus about?” He whined, before spotting the two. “Aren’t you two supposed to be in the hotel having sex?”
“Why does everyone assume that’s all we’re doing today?” Jimin huffed, flailing his arms.
“Because, they know how long I’ve been alone with naught but my hand to satisfy my needs,” Yoongi shrugged.
“Yeah, moaning Jimin’s name as he gets himself off,” Jin snickered.
“Thank god that’s over now.” Namjoon rolled his eyes. “He can escape to Jimin’s place to satisfy his needs and it’ll finally quiet down here.”
Yoongi chuckled, “Yeah about that.”
“Jimin is coming to live with us, hun,” Jin said, patting Namjoon’s shoulder.
“What the fuck?” Namjoon’s eyebrows rose. “We’re never gonna get any peace and quiet now.” He whined, letting out a groan. “In fact it might only get louder from here with this young love happening in front of us.”
“Sorry Joonie-hyung, just sleep with ear plugs from now on.” Jimin gave him a innocent smile.
“Oh, wah-wah. I’ve had to listen to you two since you got together. Consider this my revenge. I’ll make sure Jimin keeps you up all night.” Yoongi threatened.
“I need to warm up my vocal chords anyway.” Jimin boasted.
“So he is a dom,” Jin mused to himself.
“Jesus fuck, I don’t need to hear about this.” Namjoon complained, pinching the bridge of his nose.
“Also, Jin. I’m not exclusively a dom,” Yoongi directed at the older boy.
Jin let out a small gasp, “Joonie we should try switching sometime.”
“Oh, I haven’t thought about that. It’ll add a little more fun, let’s try tonight baby boo.” He lightly booped Jin’s nose.
“And...that’s our cue to leave.” Jimin grabbed his hand, leading Yoongi to his room. “Oh hyung! My surprise!” He exclaimed as they entered the room, rifling through his small duffle bag, pulling out an insta-x, the same shade of mint as Yoongi’s old hair color. “I wanted us to take pictures of our adventures from here on out, but I did some thinking. Now that we’re living together, I thought we can cover one of our walls with our photos.”
Yoongi smiled and pointed to the wall his bed rested against, “There’s our blank canvas. We can get some fairy lights and clothespins and clip our photos onto the strands. How’s that sound, Jiminnie?”
Jimin lifted up the camera, taking a quick snap of his soft expression while he spoke, grinning as a little blank card popped out. “It’s a perfect idea.” He pulled out the card, waiting for it to develop.
Yoongi walked over to Jimin and put his hands on his waist, “Just know for every one picture you take of me, I’m taking ten of you and your beautiful face.” He leaned in and kissed Jimin’s lips. “Your beautiful, beautiful face.”
A blush crept up his cheeks as Jimin grinned. “For every picture you take of me, I’ll take hundreds of us. These walls will be covered before you know it.”
“Then we’ll have to move out into our own house so we can fill those walls,” Yoongi smiled.
“I look very much forward to that day.” He beamed. “So let’s fill these walls.” He lifted up the camera facing them and nudging himself as close to Yoongi as possible, smiling until there was the sound of a light shutter and a small card popping out again.
“Jimin, I love you,” Yoongi smiled.
“I love you too, Min Yoongi.” He replied and glanced down at the two cards, one already finished developing. “Look at your face.” He grinned, adoring the expression Yoongi had on his face while he was pointing at the wall, speaking. “Actually, this one I’m going to keep in my phone case.” He waved the second picture as it was nearly done. “This one of us can be our first picture that goes up.”
Yoongi smiled as he let go of Jimin and walked over to his desk, grabbing a piece of tape and rolling it up. He gently took the photo from Jimin and stuck the tape on the back before he knelt on the bed and crawled over to the wall to stick it up. “There.”
Jimin let out a squeal, clapping his hands. “I can’t wait to watch this grow. Let’s go on a lot of trips out of the country and take pictures there too. Europe! Let’s go to Europe!” His expression brighted, growing excited at the thought.
“Baby, we’ll go wherever you want. Pick a country, and we’ll go,” Yoongi smiled. “Once these winter recitals are over, I’m free for a little bit from teaching the kids piano.”
“Min Yoongi, do you know why I said Europe?”
“No. Why?”
“It’s the origin of the piano, the very heart of music. Do you know how many museums there are that we could go see? All the music, all the dancing?” His smile grew. “There’s even a Beethoven House with all the original instruments. I hear the food is great too, so that’s an added bonus.”
Yoongi smiled, revealing his gums to the younger boy, “I could kiss you right now. Wow. I - I honestly don’t know what to say, except fuck yes. Three month anniversary. We’re going to Europe!” Yoongi grabbed onto Jimin and spun him around in his glee, setting him down on the bed and following it up with a passionate kiss. “Have I told you lately that I love you?”
“Only a few times I think.” Jimin pondered. “Can you remind me again?”
Yoongi kissed down Jimin’s jaw and neck, whispering a small “I love you,” with each one.
Soft moans escaped from Jimin’s lips, and then after an idea came to him, his moans suddenly grew loud and ridiculous, followed by laughter. He could faintly hear Namjoon groan in disgust and curse out loud in the other room. “Just giving the boys a welcoming gift.” Jimin snickered.
“I mean I can rock the bed too and we can give em the full Easy A stunt,” Yoongi winked.
“We could do that, and then give them the full show on my first night here.” He wriggled his eyebrows with a teasing smile. “Nothing beats the real deal.”
“Why tease when they’ll get it all tomorrow night?” Yoongi smiled mischievously. “Which reminds me, let’s change. We have a lunch buffet to devour.”
“And a concert to attend to.” Jimin pointed out as he rolled off the bed, peeling off his formal wear to change into a black, short sleeved shirt followed by black pants that hugged against his toned thighs. He slipped on a white jacket and ran his hands through his hair, ruffling it up. “I don’t exactly know what to wear for the concert, but this works, right?”
“Baby, you look good in anything. You could show up to the concert in a potato sack and heads would turn,” Yoongi stated as he pulled on a pair of tight black pants and a white Union Jack tee. he strapped on black suspenders and a white bomber jacket before shoving his feet into a pair of Union Jack Doc Martens.
“H-hyung…” Jimin stammered, scanning him from head to toe. Without hesitation, he picked up his instax from the desk and snapped a picture. “This is one hell of a look, I love it sugar lips.” He pulled out the card and set it on the desk to develop. “Are you ready to go?” Jimin asked as he zipped up the small duffle bag, slipping it over his shoulder, holding out a hand for Yoongi to take.
Yoongi smiled and took Jimin’s hand into his own. “You look so good, Jimin. Baby, you’re so beautiful. Thank you for spending these past two months with me.”
“Anything just to be with my Yoongi.” Jimin beamed as they exited their bedroom, taking one last glance at the small polaroid taped to the wall.
“Oh, you guys finished up quickly.” Namjoon’s voice echoed from the other room. “I take it you had a rather enjoyable warming up your vocal chords Chim?”
Jimin replied with a snort. “I sure did, Joonie-hyung. It’s good to warm them up often.” He sniggered as Namjoon cursed quietly to himself. “We got everything so we won’t plan on coming back until tomorrow so, uh, go crazy.” Jimin grinned. “But don’t sprain anything, alright?”
Jimin squealed and left the house with Yoongi as Namjoon chucked couch pillows toward him. “I love living here already.” He sighed happily, exchanging smiles with Yoongi as they walked back to the car.
“Good. You’ll settle in quickly. I’m still so shocked you agreed to live with us though.”
“I didn’t want to wait any longer. I already go to your house so often anyway, it may as well be easier to bring my pillow and keep it there forever.” Jimin shrugged.
“We can get matching couple toothbrushes too,” Yoongi giggled, opening the passenger door for Jimin.
“I call the pink brush!” Jimin shouted before thanking Yoongi for the door, leaving a small peck on his cheek and went inside of the car. As Yoongi entered as well, Jimin leaned over. “Or we can get Kakao emoji toothbrushes.”
“In that case, I call Muzi,” Yoongi laughed.
“I call Apeach, it’s head looks like a little mochi. We’re practically twins!”
Yoongi’s laugh filled the entire car. He smiled as he made his way back to the hotel, holding Jimin’s hand on the centre console. The two kept stealing glances at each other, and would chuckle as they accidentally made eye contact.
When Yoongi pulled up to the hotel and parked, Jimin grabbed his bag and got out of the car. As they walked toward the hotel entrance, Jimin ran over, joining Yoongi and clung onto his arm like an annoying girlfriend with a wide smile. They entered the lounge, walking past the old, white piano sitting in the middle of the room with a view to the waterfall.
Yoongi stopped walking as they reached the piano and sat down on the bench. He looked at Jimin with a soft smile, and adjusted his hands on the keys. A soft melody flowed from the ivory keys, and Yoongi closed his eyes. The song poured out of him, his hands moving mechanically thanks to the countless times he played it in his studio. He opened his eyes as the melody became softer and glanced over at Jimin. A smile spread across his lips as he watched the younger boy stare at him in awe and wonder, finally hearing his song being played for him.
Jimin watched in admiration as Yoongi played his song, all his love and attention being poured into each note. The melody was so soft, so calming. He could listen to it a million times over again. Each key he played struck a chord in him, his chest tightening. He could feel the emotion Yoongi put into the song. Unknowingly, a tear ran down his cheek as he closed his eyes, attentively listening to his song play, a soft smile growing across his lips.
Other guests had walked over to the piano to listen, awe on their faces as Yoongi continued playing. He smirked as he played on, feeling a sense of pride as these strangers enjoyed Jimin’s song. A song he wrote for his boyfriend. He finished with a soft press of the keys and stood up, giving a small bow as the people around him applauded. He grabbed his suitcase and held out his other hand for Jimin to take, and the two made their way to the elevators.
Jimin took Yoongi’s hand, gesturing toward him to the audience as they left. “That’s my boyfriend.” He whispered to them, proudly boasting. As they reached the elevator, Jimin pressed the button, watching one of the doors open. The two entered and the doors closed, taking them back up to their floor. “That song,” Jimin bought up. “It was really beautiful. Thank you.”
“Anything for the man I love,” Yoongi smiled.
Jimin returned a loving smile as they waited for the elevator to arrive at their floor. Once the doors opened, the two exited, Jimin letting go of Yoongi’s hand and skipping happily down the hall, humming the tune of the song Yoongi played, until they reached the door to their room. He unlocked it with his card key and tossed the bag onto the small couch. “Ready to feast until we explode?”
“Baby, I was born ready. That fancy meal was so tiny last night,” Yoongi sighed, throwing his bag down next to Jimin’s.
“We’ll eat so much more than the size of your emotional capacity now.” Jimin joked, but his laugh faded. “Although, dare I say, it has increased?”
“Baby, I could tell you that I love you with all my heart, and it wouldn’t be enough to let you know how much I really love you,” Yoongi smiled, stroking Jimin’s hair as he spoke.
“It’s definitely not a teaspoon anymore.” Jimin whispered. “It’s as big as the universe now. Like mine.” He pulled Yoongi toward the door, exiting out of their room toward the lobby that held the buffet. He could smell the food lingering down the hall as they entered the large room, rows of hot and fresh food ready to be served. Jimin’s eyes grew wide at the sight, setting off a rumble in his stomach. “Hyung...there’s so much.” He grew overwhelmed, unsure as to where to start.
“Just fill your plate and go back for more,” Yoongi said, piling random food on his plate.
Jimin’s eyes glimmered at the sight of the food in front of them and grabbed two plates to fill up for starters. He grabbed as much meat as one could hold and the second plate covered in vegetables and pasta for him to try. Once their plates were full, Jimin carefully held his and scanned the room for a table, spotting an empty one by a large window. He carried his plates there, setting them both down and stood by the window, looking at the view of the city with awe.
Yoongi followed behind, setting his plate down at the spot across from Jimin and walking over next to him. He wrapped an arm around his waist and pulled the younger boy into his side with a smile, “Quite a view, isn’t it?”
“When we get our own place, I want to live somewhere high. As high as Namsan. I’ll never get sick of this view.”
“We could probably find something in Itaewon that’s nice and high for you. Or just stay in the heart of Seoul,” Yoongi mused. He rested his head on Jimin’s shoulder with a chuckle, “I will do all necessary research to find you the most beautiful apartment in the tallest building possible.”
“But,” Jimin chimed in. “we would also have to find a space with an extra room. For your music studio, and an area to fit a piano in. I can never grow sick of hearing you play it.”
“And I will never grow tired of playing for you.” Yoongi brought his hand up from Jimin’s waist, and started stroking his hair, “When we get home tomorrow, let’s make a binder full of shit we want to do together and what our dream home will look like and fucking everything we could ever want to do in the future. Kinda like a bucket list, so we can see exactly everything we dream of together.”
“That sounds like a wonderful idea.” Jimin leaned into his shoulder, his mind already reeling with an overwhelming amount of ideas.
“Let’s eat, and discuss this as we go,” Yoongi decided, letting go of Jimin and walking over to his spot. He sat down and began shoveling food into his mouth, “Yah, this is delicious. Eat up, baby boy. I know you’re hungry.”
“Hungry? I’m starving.” Jimin joined Yoongi at the table, taking a few bites of the meat as if he felt like he hadn’t eaten in weeks. He shoved even more food in his mouth, his eyes closing as he groaned in satisfaction. “This is so good.” He mumbled to himself, knowing that there will be more plates of food to come after the first round. “The binder can wait, this is the best thing in the world.” His voice was muffled, his mouth full of food as he stabbed his fork into the pasta, twirling it around.
Yoongi chuckled as Jimin ate like he was a starving child, “Baby, slow down. You’ll give yourself a stomach ache.”
Jimin gave him an innocent giggle before taking another bite of his pasta, clearing up one of the plates in a matter of minutes. “I’m just taking advantage of this buffet to the fullest.” He peered around the room suspiciously and leaned in closely. “You think anyone will notice if I sneak some of this bread in my pockets and bring them back to our room?”
“Baby, you could take a plate of food to your room. It’s the hotel buffet.”
Jimin’s threw his fists in the air in excitement. “As much as sex is great and all, I’m going to do nothing but eat all night. Sorry honey.” He teased, shrugging apologetically and ate another piece of meat.
Yoongi laughed, “Ah, my Jiminnie. You are so wonderful.”
“So are you, Min Yoongi.” Jimin crooned, waving his utensil toward him. “Alright,” He was halfway finished with the second plate. “Let’s get back to this binder of adventures.”
Yoongi smiled, chewing the bite of food he had just put in his mouth before speaking. “What are you thinking, Jiminnie?”
“First and foremost is our trip to Europe.”
“Obviously,” Yoongi smiled. His eyes lit up as he thought of something new, “Let’s go to America too! Could you imagine? The two of us in America!” Yoongi pondered the idea for a moment, “Fuck, we don’t know enough English to travel abroad. We have to bring Joonie with us. He’s the only one fluent in English.”
“If we bring Namjoon, he’s obviously going to bring Jin. If Hoseok finds out the four of us would go to America, he would invite himself along. At some point, Taehyung would find out through Hoseok’s big mouth and bring himself with Kookie. It’s just going to turn into a big family trip. But…” A smile creeped up his lips. “I like the idea of that though.”
“All seven of us having a Western adventure. It sounds like the best holiday ever. I mean, a trip with just the two of us would be fantastic, and I’m sure one day we’ll do it. But thinking about having the others with us brings a different kind of excitement to my heart. You feel me?”
“If our group chats are already crazy, imagine how wild it’ll get with all seven of us in America. America. The land of the crazies. It’s going to be a blast. Too bad Kookie wouldn’t be able to drink there yet.” Jimin chuckled, clearing the last meat on his plate.
“Fuck, let’s do it.”

Yoongi looked up from his phone with a laugh, “God, I can’t believe our friends sometimes. And you know, it’s always fucking Tae who gets everyone to leave the chat. What the fuck is up with that?”
Jimin threw his head back in laughter, replying with a shrug. “That’s just how Taetae is. What a beautiful friendship.” He wiped a tear away from laughing so hard and stabbed a fork into one of the meats on his fourth plate of food.
“What do you figure we should do until the concert tonight? We have that whole room to lounge in. We have a fucking bathtub with jets. The day is yours, Jiminnie. What do you want?”
“Joonie texted me earlier and said he slipped some video games into my bag. We can hook it up to the tv in there and watch me beat your ass.” Jimin grinned. “After our luxurious bath of course.”
Yoongi grinned wide, “That sounds heavenly.”
“But,” Jimin spoke up. “On the way, there’s somewhere I want us to go to.”
“Anywhere, baby.”
“We have to leave a lock at Namsan.” Jimin smiled and resumed eating his food.
“Of course. Yes. Let’s do it. We’ll go get a lock and write our names on it and lock it up for everyone to see how much we love each other.”
“Next time on one of our anniversaries, let’s get dinner at the top of the tower! There’s a really nice restaurant there.
Yoongi smiled at the thought of taking Jimin up to the restaurant at the top of the tower, “Of course, baby. Maybe we can get wine there too,” he added with a wink.
“Lot’s of wine!” Jimin exclaimed. “That’s going in our adventure binder.” He sighed, resting his chin on his hand. “There’s nothing more romantic than a date at Namsan. You know, when we put our names on a lock and throw the key away, it means our love is supposed to be eternal.” He bit on his fork, a dreamy smile growing across his lips.
“Good,” Yoongi nodded. “I don’t want our love to be anything less than eternal. More than is okay, but not less than.” He smiled, watching Jimin stare off out the window and knew the younger was concocting a fantasy of his own in his head.
His gaze wavered back toward Yoongi, taking in the sight in front of him. “You know,” Jimin finally spoke up. “I don’t get what our friends say about you being a cold hearted person. I never saw it in you, even from the start. You’re literally like a teddy bear.” Every time Yoongi smiled, Jimin’s insides melted. Whenever he spoke, he turned into putty. Even the first time they met at the cafe, Jimin couldn’t take his eyes off of him. He just simply didn’t understand why he was so intimidating to others. Yoongi was in fact, the softest person Jimin had ever met.
“I have a bad case of resting bitch face, and it scares people away from me,” Yoongi shrugged. “It’s how I weed out the weak ones.”
“I must be the strongest weed in your garden.” Jimin giggled
“You must. I can’t seem to get you out of my garden. But then again, I haven’t actually tried to.”
“Mmm,” Jimin scrunched his nose. “Don’t plan on trying. I already spread out and took over your whole garden.”
Yoongi stood up and walked over to where Jimin was still seated. He leaned down and placed a hard kiss on Jimin’s cheek and held out his hand for the younger to grab onto. He helped Jimin out of his seat and pulled him into a tight hug. “I want this whole damn hotel to know how much I love my Jiminnie.”
Jimin tightened his fist into the fabric of Yoongi’s shirt, his nose burying into the crook of his neck. “When we get to Namsan, I want the whole damn world to know how much I love you.”
Yoongi felt like he had a smile permanently etched into his face, but it didn’t bother him. He enjoyed the overwhelming feeling of happiness Jimin brought him. He loved the fact that he didn’t need to feel sorry for himself when Jimin was around. If a permanent smile was the price to pay for loving Jimin with his whole heart, then so be it. He unwrapped himself from Jimin, and pulled the younger along back to the room, “I have a lock in my bag. Let’s grab it and make our way to Namsan.”
“You...you have a lock?” Jimin asked with a surprised expression, following him back to their room. “You’re prepared for anything, aren’t you Min Yoongi?” A smile creeped up his lips. “Why do I feel like we’re the two disgustingly-in-love main couple of a rom-com movie?”
“I went to the gym the other day and forgot to take it out, but this is a better use for that lock anyways,” Yoongi shrugged.
“It works perfectly. The locks there are overpriced anyway.” They eventually reached their room, entering it after inserting the card key as Jimin watched Yoongi shuffle through his bag. His expression radiated when Yoongi found the small lock. “Got a sharpie in there too by any chance?” He squatted down beside him.
Yoongi shoved a few things aside, sticking his tongue out in concentration as his hand felt around the bottom of his bag for the familiar marker he knew was hiding inside. He let out an “ah ha!” as he gripped onto his lonely black sharpie and held it out like Link would hold his heart container. “I have a marker and a lock, who needs capitalism?” Yoongi smirked.
“Capitalism can suck it!” Jimin shouted before falling into a fit of laughter. “You’re always so handy Min Yoongi.” He stood up from the floor, brushing the dark hair out of his eyes. “Let’s go show the world how disgustingly cute we are together.”
“God, I want nothing more than that,” Yoongi sang out as he followed Jimin out of the hotel room.
Hands intertwined with Yoongi’s, Jimin led him out of the hotel and searched around the street. “Let’s take a bus to Namsan and then a stroll up the hill from there. It’ll be such a nuisance to try parking anywhere near that place.” He pulled him toward the bus stop, a bus luckily arriving right as they got there. They swiped their cards as they entered the vehicle, picking an empty spot toward the back. The bus wasn’t as crowded as Jimin expected, it was quiet except for the hum of the engine and a song playing softly in the background. He leaned his head against Yoongi’s shoulder, fiddling around with the lock in his hands.
Yoongi smiled at the contact, and wrapped his arm around Jimin, pulling him close. He leaned his head against Jimin and closed his eyes, taking a moment to relax. “Let’s write on the lock now so it’s all ready to lock up when we get there,” Yoongi suggested.
Jimin beamed at the idea. “It’s your lock, so you write your message first.” He tilted his head up, setting the lock into his hands.
“Jimin, my love for you surpasses the sound of the seventh trumpet,” Yoongi muttered as he wrote as small as he could on the back of the lock. He left enough room for Jimin to put his message underneath.
Jimin grinned widely, feeling his ears burn as he heard Yoongi’s mumble. When he was done, Jimin took the lock from him and bit his lip, thinking of a short message to write. When an idea came to him, he squinted and wrote the little note underneath Yoongi’s and added their names along the edges with a heart at the end. He proudly showed Yoongi the lock with a dorky grin. The note read ‘Our love goes to infinity and beyond.’
Yoongi knew the grin on his face was equally as dorky as Jimin’s but he didn’t care. Everyone in the bus could have been staring at them at that moment, but it didn’t mean a thing to Yoongi if he had Jimin in his arms. He kissed the side of Jimin’s head and whispered “I love you,” into his ear, and in the moment, it felt so intimate.
Jimin’s cheeks flushed as he looked down at the lock in his hands, admiring their scribbled messages. As dorky they were, it still made something in his chest flutter. The two were in their own little world on the bus, exchanging giggles and smiles. He took Yoongi’s hand in his, massaging little circles on the back of it. “Did I ever say,” He began. “Happy two months?”
“No, but that might have been implied during our morning handjob,” Yoongi smiled coyly.
Jimin sputtered, covering his mouth to suppress his laugh. “I mean, you’re not exactly wrong.”
Yoongi chuckled, “Happy two months, baby boy. Here’s to many more.”
“And to the best trip to America with our dysfunctional family.” He chimed in. “Happy two months, sugar lips.” He leaned in, pressing a kiss against his cheek.
The bus came to a stop, Yoongi nudged Jimin that it was time to get off, and the two made their way out hand-in-hand. They approached the entrance to the trail that spiraled up toward Namsan tower. The buildings of the city faded into a forest, trees surrounding them. The brick trail in front of them alternated from stairs to a flat slope. It was a beautiful walk up the hill, the weather cool enough for them to go up comfortably, but it was steep as hell.
Yoongi scrunched his nose as he looked up the hill, “Yah, I’m already tired. Baby, carry me up the hill.”
“You’re so lazy, come on. We’re almost there! Even the ahjummas are passing us.” Jimin grabbed Yoongi’s hand, pulling him up the steep hill. “Look! We’re getting closer to the tower. They have a lot of refreshing drinks and snacks at the end of the trail.
“Good. I’m gonna need some.”
A few turns and whines later, they finally reached the end of the gruesome trail. Jimin was about to take a moment to catch his breath when he caught a glimpse of the tower behind the trees and skipped toward it, jumping up and down. “Yoongi, Yoongi! Hyung, look, it’s right there!” He pointed at the building towering up into the sky.
Yoongi panted, trying to catch his breath as he followed after Jimin. “Jiminnie, wait for hyung.” He took hold of Jimin’s wrist and followed his pace up to the tower.
“Hyung, hyung!” He shook his shoulder excitedly, pulling out his phone. “Can you take a picture of me? I’m going to jump!” Jimin set the phone in Yoongi’s hand, running out into the open space in front of the tower, preparing for his jump-shot.
“On the count of three, baby. Jump for me, okay?” Yoongi requested, holding up Jimin’s phone. “One, two, three!”
Jimin flew up into the air, spreading his arms and legs. A shout erupted from him, as if it would have made the quality of the image better. He landed back on the ground with a thunk and ran up to Yoongi. “Did you get it?” He peered over his shoulder, looking at his phone.
Yoongi pulled up the camera roll and smiled, showing Jimin the picture of him up in the air. “Perfect.”
“Now you! Go on!” He gently pushed Yoongi toward the open area, chuckling at his protests. “Come on, I’ll take a good one of you, I promise!”
Yoongi pouted, but once he turned around and saw Jimin’s smile, his pout disappeared. With a gummy grin, Yoongi gave Jimin two thumbs up when he was ready to go.
“Okay!” He shouted. “Three, two, one, jump!”
Yoongi jumped up in the air, hands stretched up to the sky, and his foot coming out in front of him in a martial arts kick. When he landed, he stumbled over to Jimin to see how the picture turned out.
“Oh,” Jimin pouted, glancing up at Yoongi. “I didn’t get it.”
Yoongi frowned and tried to take Jimin’s phone from his hands to look himself.
Jimin threw himself at Yoongi, laughing. “I was just kidding hyung, I took a perfect one. See!” He swiped to the picture of Yoongi kicking in the air. “As promised.”
Yoongi pinched Jimin’s cheeks in retaliation, “You’re lucky I love you so damn much.”
Jimin grinned proudly and swiped through the pictures of them. Before continuing their adventure, he made them take millions of selfies in every angle possible while trying to get the tower in the background. After Jimin was satisfied, he tugged on Yoongi’s sleeve, dragging him all around the area. Jimin hadn’t been to the tower since he was a kid, he had forgotten how pretty everything was, from the little temple perched on the top of the stairs to the sculptures of locks shaped as trees.
Jimin gasped in awe as he went to the viewing area, hanging just off the edge of the hill. The view looked over to the sprawling city of Seoul in between mountains.
“It’s beautiful,” Yoongi breathed.
“I don’t know,” Jimin hummed, leaning against the railing, facing Yoongi. “I found a much more beautiful view than that.” As half serious as he was, it took all his resistance to not cringe at his own words.
Yoongi leaned in and kissed Jimin’s lips, far too fond of the boy in front of him to do anything other than that.
Jimin pulled him in closer, leaning into the kiss, feeling himself grow warm and fuzzy from the embrace. He tilted his head back and smiled at him. “Yeah,” Jimin nodded to himself. “Beats the view. One hundred percent.”
“Let’s put this lock on so I can take you back to the hotel room,” Yoongi purred against Jimin’s jaw, leaving small kisses in his wake.
“Impatient, aren’t you?” Jimin snickered as he wiggled himself out of his embrace, guiding Yoongi toward the large porch, the railings covered with an overwhelming amount of colorful locks. “Jesus, there’s so much more than what I remembered. Where do you want to put it?” He held up the lock between the two.
Yoongi looked around them and pointed to a spot behind Jimin, “I want to put it over there so that it can rest on top of the other locks and everyone can see how much Yoongi and Jimin love each other.”
“Let’s do it!” Jimin chimed in, spinning around. He searched for a secure place on top of the pile of locks to attack theirs to. “How about here?” He pointed to a cluster of pink locks scribbled with messages at the very top.
“There is perfect,” Yoongi smiled.
Jimin attached the lock into place, pulling the small metallic key and tugging on it to make sure it was secure.
Yoongi snaked his hand into Jimin’s and rested his head on the other’s shoulder, “Now our love is eternal. Amazing how that happened so quickly.”
Jimin held up the key inches away from his face. “We still have to toss it in the box, and then it’s to infinity and beyond from there.”
“Then let’s toss her in and make it official.”
Jimin approached the small box perched on a wooden post in the corner. He slipped the key into the slot, hearing it clank against the pile of god knows how many other keys. He said a little prayer in his mind, a habit after having visited many temples with his family growing up. “It’s done!”
“Jimin, I do believe we are married now. I don’t make the rules, I just follow them,” Yoongi smirked, pulling the younger boy into his side.
“Lucky for you, I’m a rule follower too.”
“Suck it, Korea!” Yoongi yelled, flipping off the skyline in the distance.
Jimin cackled and ran up to the railing, screaming into the city, disrupting the small crowd around them. “Korea can suck it!”
The two received weird looks from the people around them, but they either didn’t notice or didn’t care. Yoongi laughed along with Jimin, and the two of them began their decent back down the hill holding hands the whole way down.
“The walk down was nowhere near as bad,” Jimin exclaimed as they arrived to the bus station, waiting with a few other people. “Let’s come back when the flowers start blooming! It’s supposed to be gorgeous here.” He grinned and realized how much time had passed. Jimin pulled out his phone and checked the time. “It’s almost time for the concert! Let’s start heading to the venue, the hotel can wait until tonight.” He winked.
Yoongi chuckled, “We’ll probably be sweaty from the concert anyway. Oh, did you grab the picnic dinner from Jin? I can’t remember.”
“Yes! Namjoon packed it in my duffle along with the video games.”
“Good! Show should be done by 9. That buffet should hold us over until then. After we eat, we can dance around under the stars, because it’s just what I know you’re waiting for.”
“I mean, I didn’t eat 5 plates of food for nothing.” Jimin shrugged and followed with a smile. “Dancing under the stars,” He sighed, leaning against Yoongi’s shoulder. “How romantic is that ? God we’re so gay. I love it.”
“You know earlier how you asked me why the others said I was so cold hearted? I’m only a hopeless romantic when I’m with you, Jimin.” Yoongi chuckled, grabbing Jimin’s hand and walking into the bus as it pulled up and opened its doors. “No one else on Earth could convince me to dance under the stars after picnicking.”
“I feel like the luckiest person ever then.” Jimin seated himself comfortably next to Yoongi on the bus as the doors shut and went on with it’s route. “Is it greedy of me to say I like being the only one to see this side of you?”
“Nah. It’s not selfish if we both feel the same way,” Yoongi winked.
“Okay, good.” Jimin leaned himself closely against Yoongi, combing his fingers through his hair. “Because you’re my Yoongi and mine only.” He whispered.
“Oh, possessive are we? Another one of those kinks I’m finding you have a lot of?” Yoongi quirked an eyebrow at the younger boy.
Jimin replied with a smirk. “There’s a lot you don’t know about me yet.”
“Well I potentially have the rest of my life to figure it all out, right?” Yoongi whispered.
JImin nodded at Yoongi. “Of course. I would hope so.”
Yoongi smiled and kissed the top of Jimin’s head. “Technically eternity.”
“We may as well be the ones that get married in America instead.” Jimin laughed. “I don’t think spending an eternity with you would be so bad.”
Yoongi’s smile grew wider, and he pulled Jimin tight against himself, “Good. Because I think you’re kind of stuck with me.”
“You won’t be hearing any complaints from me, we made it through two months so far, haven’t we? Jesus,” He laughed to himself. “After talking about an eternity, two months seems like nothing.”
“What’s the saying? Time flies when you’re having fun? I definitely have fun when I’m with you.”
Jimin’s eyes formed into crescents. “I mean,” He flipped his hair dramatically. “People always said I was a fun person to hang out with.”
“Almost as fun as Hobi,” Yoongi smirked.
“You know what, you’re absolutely right. I can never outrank that man. He never fails to steal the show at every party we’ve gone to.”
“Him drunk is the party.”
Jimin snickered at his comment. “I’ve never heard a more accurate statement.”
Yoongi laughed along with Jimin, and the two kept their happy conversation going until they reached their stop. The two got out of the bus, thanking the driver (bc they ain’t a bunch of assholes) and made their way back to their room.
When they entered their rooms, Jimin bolted into the living room, jumping onto the couch. “Hyung! Let’s play mario kart!” He pulled out the console from his duffle bag with a competitive grin. “Winner gets a free dinner?”
Yoongi snorted, “How about, the winner is on top tonight.” He winked at Jimin as he grabbed the controllers and helped him bring the video games over to the TV.
Jimin hooked up the Nintendo® Wii™ to the TV and realized Namjoon left a CD in it. Pushing the eject button, it popped out and Jimin read the title, sputtering at the name. “Hyung,” He waved the CD titled ‘Cumalot’ toward him. “I think Namjoon left us a present.”
“What in the everloving fuck is this?” Yoongi asked, taking the CD from Jimin.
“Well, now we know a member of our family enjoys porn. I appreciate the gesture, but I think we’ll do just fine without it.” Jimin wiggled his eyebrows.
Yoongi laughed, “You’re right. We don’t need porn to help us get off. All I need to hear is you moan as I bite your lip and lick up your neck.”
Jimin swallowed, staring at Yoongi as he felt the heat creep up his cheeks, but within a second, the expression changed to a smirk as he inserted the game into the Wii™. “Don’t think you can use that as a distraction to win the game, Min Yoongi.” Mario Kart™ flashed onto the screen and Jimin hopped onto the couch, making himself comfortable. “Nothing can distract me from kicking your ass.”
“Oh, someone’s eager,” Yoongi chuckled. He sat himself down next to Jimin, and grabbed a pro controller and connected it to his wiimote. He looked over at Jimin, who was sat with his wiimote stuck inside the wheel add-on. He was sitting on his knees, excitedly bouncing up and down as the menu loaded up. “You look like such a child right now, baby,” Yoongi smiled. “You’re cute when you’re excited.”
“I get excited knowing I’m going to beat you, hyung.” Jimin bit his lip as he selected the Koopa Cape track and picked out the vehicle for his character, Toad. When the screen began the countdown, he hunched over with the wheel in his hand, ready to play.
“Baby, if you wanted to beat me, you wouldn’t have chosen Toad as your main driver,” Yoongi laughed, his Waluigi zooming past Jimin as the screen flashed “GO.”
“Wait...wait!” Jimin sputtered, shifting his wheel side by side to dodge through the other karts to catch up with Yoongi, but he was too fast. “Wait...you didn’t tell me you were good at this game. Hyung!” He whined, trying to launch items toward Yoongi’s car. “Just wait until I get a blue shell of death.” He murmured under his breath.
Yoongi laughed, “I’ll be too far ahead for it to make a difference.” Yoongi finished his first lap in first place, smiling as he saw the gap between him and Jimin in second place. “Also I was an unloved child with only one friend, you really think I didn’t master every video game I owned?”
“No, no no no!” Jimin tilted to the side, aggressively turning the wheel, finally finishing his first lap. “Sauron will remain victorious!” He collected a red shell and aimed it at Yoongi but it only hit the kart next to him. A string of curses left his lips as he scooted himself closer toward the TV, in full focus mode.
“Sauron needs to get comfy with the fact he’s gonna bottom again tonight,” Yoongi laughed.
Jimin pouted, refusing to reply to Yoongi as he finished his second lap, zooming past the other karts. His eyes squinted, watching his kart in the map catching up to Yoongi’s. Slowly, but surely. Halfway through their final lap, Jimin’s nose was practically inches away from the screen, shouting at his kart to go faster. When he glanced at Yoongi’s half of the screen, he watched his cart fly through the finish line at first place. Jimin let out a whine, falling onto the ground “No! Best out of three? I demand a character switch!”
Yoongi laughed, ruffling Jimin’s hair, “Alright, baby. That’s fine with me.”
“Yes!” Jimin jumped back up, changing the screen back to the character selection and picked Koopa.
“Ah, getting smart with your character choice, eh? Still no match for me and my Waluigi,” Yoongi said with a smug grin on his face.
“Koopa may be small, but he’s powerful.” Jimin glared at Yoongi before whipping his head back to the screen, in full focus mode again. “I only picked Toad to go easy on you.”
“Oh did you now? Alright, no mercy. I’m going back and picking the 150cc, and we are racing to the death.”
“It’s on, Min Yoongi, it’s fucking on.” Jimin scowled.
“You said best two out of three, but we’ll only need one more race to determine the winner,” Yoongi smirked.
“Shush hyung, I don’t need to hear this cockiness right now.” Jimin started the game and waited for the countdown, revving up his engine right before it started. When it said ‘GO’, the two of them zoomed off, racing side by side on the track.
“Oh, so he can race! I thought you were just messing around when you said you could beat me,” Yoongi jeered.
Jimin muttered an ‘I told you so’ under his breath as he tilted the steering wheel, trying to break through one of the item boxes, collecting a red shell. With Yoongi just ahead of him, he aimed it at his cart and watched it get hit, cackling loudly.
“You bastard,” Yoongi whispered.
“That’s what boyfriends are for!” Jimin beamed, keeping his eyes on the screen.
“I thought you loved me,” Yoongi pouted and leaned all his weight onto Jimin’s shoulder.
“I do, this is just my way of showing it.” They finished their first lap, Jimin shouting in victory as he placed in first and cackled at Yoongi. “Watch me kick your ass this time around.”
“Oh, sounds kinky.”
“Hyung!” Jimin screeched.
Yoongi just laughed and took a shortcut path to weasel his way in front of Jimin and back into first place.
“You...you-” Jimin stuttered, giving Yoongi a quick glance. “You cheated!”
“It’s called using my resources, and the game provides this shorter track for anyone to use.”
Jimin pouted and furrowed his eyebrows, spinning his wheel back and forth aggressively during the sharper turns. He glanced at Yoongi mischievously and pushed him with his arm, trying to throw him off.
“Fuck off, Jiminnie!” Yoongi laughed, still maintaining his spot on the race track. “That’s cheating.”
“I never said I played Mario Kart fairly.” Jimin stated, sitting himself in front of Yoongi to block his view.
Yoongi didn’t hesitate, licking up the side of Jimin’s neck as he blocked his view.
“Yah!” Jimin cringed, sliding himself away from Yoongi. “You brat! That’s not funny!” He shrieked as they finished their second lap, desperately trying to catch up to Yoongi.
“Oh babe, I’m sorry. I just thought since you seemed to enjoy it every other time I licked you, it might encourage you this time around.”
Jimin shot a glare at Yoongi, laughing sarcastically. “Not this time, Min Yoongi.” They were on their third lap now, Jimin shrieking loudly during every sharp turn, throwing his body to the side he turned the wheel. “No, no, nonononono” He muttered under his breath.
Yoongi pulled his item trigger to use his star power as they came up close to the finish line, gaining a speed boost and a “FUCK!” from Jimin. Yoongi just laughed as he crossed the finish line only seconds before Jimin.
“Damn!” Jimin tossed his wheel onto the couch, his arms flailing in the air. “I was this close, this close!”
“You know, since I’m the best boyfriend ever and you were that close to beating the Great Min Yoongi at Mario Kart™, I’ll let you top tonight anyways,” Yoongi grinned, pulled Jimin into his arms.
Jimin stuck out his bottom lip, pouting. “Are you sure you’re not just saying that out of guilt?”
Yoongi’s smile softened, “I’m sure. Plus, I fucked you last night. I wouldn’t have made you bottom again anyways.”
“Aw, Min Yoongi.” Jimin smiled. “You really are the best boyfriend after all.” He left a kiss on his cheek. “But I’m still salty you beat me, twice.”
“I’m just that good, baby,” Yoongi grinned, leaning back with his hands hooked behind his head.
“I’ll never admit that.” Jimin laughed, ruffling Yoongi’s hair. “You say what you want to think, but there’s a million more games out there I can clearly beat you in.”
“Okay, well we can certainly test that out. Every night before bed, we are now going to battle each other in different video games.”
“You know what, I’m up for that challenge. If we run out of games to play, we’ll just team up against Namjoon and Jin.”
“God yes. That sounds fantastic,” Yoongi grinned. Yoongi glances at his watch and let out an “oof,” as he read the time. “Alright, baby, it’s time to go! We’re gonna miss our bus if we wait any longer.”
“Let’s go, let’s go!” Jimin shouted gleefully, jumping up from his ground and grabbed Yoongi’s hand, helping him up as well. He grabbed the key and bolted out of the room with Yoongi, skipping down the hall, humming a song to himself. “I’m so excited, I haven’t been to a concert before! I’ve always been a classical show kind of guy.”
“Well, you’re in for a treat, baby. Fall Out Boy and Steve Aoki are gonna play for us.”
“I love Steve Aoki!” Jimin clapped his hands together, hopping into the elevator once the door finally opened, pushing the button to the lobby. “Oh my god, I’m going to see him live. Min Yoongi I’m going to see one of my idols live!” He exclaimed, grabbing his shoulders and shaking him.
Yoongi gave Jimin one of his gummy smiles, “Baby, I’m excited for you!”
“I’m excited for us! This concert is going to be so much fun.” The elevator doors opened again when they reached the lobby, exiting the hotel toward the bus stop. They only waited a few minutes until it arrived and entered the vehicle, taking the seats in the back. He nuzzled himself up against Yoongi, a smile grew across his lips, thinking about the concert and their little picnic afterwards. He was so ridiculously happy today, there was absolutely nothing that could kill off his joy.
Yoongi kissed the top of Jimin’s head as the younger nuzzled up against him. The two stayed seated in a comfortable silence the whole ride over to the arena. Jimin dozed off for about 40 minutes, but Yoongi thought he was too beautiful to disturb and let him rest against his shoulder. When the bus finally arrived, he nudged his Sleeping Beauty, and the two made their way through bag check and into the arena. They followed their tickets to their seats, and Yoongi’s eyes widened in awe at how close Jimin got them. “Yah, these are really good seats.”
Jimin shrugged innocently. “I just got lucky, I guess.” He pulled out his phone, taking pictures of the arena in awe. “This place is huge, hyung. Look how many people there are! Just imagine, one day you could be up there with the songs you compose.” Jimin exclaimed, pointing toward the stage.
Yoongi snorted, “I can’t even imagine that.”
“Are you doubting yourself? You’re a lot more talented than you think! Ask any of our friends, they’ll agree with me!”
Yoongi shrugged, “I’m mediocre at best.”
Lightly punching his shoulder, Jimin let out a whine. “You’re great, hyung!” The lights dimmed as the crowd screamed, Jimin jumped out of his spot excitedly, joining the rest of the audience. “Hyung, hyung it’s starting!”
Steve Aoki came out onto the stage then and began his first song. Yoongi looked over at Jimin and saw his face light up. A smile broke out across Yoongi’s face as he took in the sight. He leaned over to talk in Jimin’s ear, “Yah, you excited? I can’t tell!”
“This is the worst concert ever!” He shouted back with the biggest smile spread across his lips. “I’m such an idiot for thinking I would actually have fun!”
Yoongi playfully shoved him, and put his attention back on the stage… kinda. He mostly remained focused on Jimin throughout Steve Aoki’s set. Every time Jimin smiled or danced along, Yoongi felt a flutter in his chest, and a smile crept up onto his face. How this boy came to be his life in such a short amount of time, he’ll never know, but he’ll thank every god there is for letting it be so.
When Steve’s set came to an end, Jimin panted, brushing the hair out of his eyes. “That was fucking amazing!” He hollered, leaping beside Yoongi. “Did you see how close he was? He saw me, I’m sure he did!” The excitement rushed through his veins, impatiently waiting for the next show to start.
Yoongi laughed, “I’m sure he did, baby.”
“I understand why you like concerts now, hyung. There’s so much energy here, and I can dance as much as I want!” Jimin sighed, taking in the arena around them. “If that was only the beginning, I can't even imagine how much better it’s going to get.”
“I’ve heard Fall Out Boy puts on a good show, so we have a good time ahead of us!” Yoongi grinned.
“What should we do until then? We got quite some time, don’t we?”
Yoongi shrugged, “We can go look at the merch booth?”
Jimin’s eyes widened. “Do you think they have Steve Aoki merch? Let’s go, let’s go!” He grabbed Yoongi’s hand, leaving their seats toward the merch booth. “I’m telling you, I’d drop so much money for an Aoki shirt.”
“You’re not buying yourself a damn thing. I’m dropping so much money on Steve Aoki for you,” Yoongi scolded.
“Wait, what? Are you being serious hyung?” HIs eyes grew wide.
“Of course I am. You set up this amazing night, and I’m going to reward you for it in every way I can,” Yoongi smiled, kissing the back of Jimin’s hand in his own.
“Oh my god,” Jimin bounced happily on his feet, a smile forming. “You are literally the best boyfriend, ever!” They approached the merch booth as a gasp of joy left his lips, eyeballing all the merch hung across the booth. “There’s...there’s so many to choose from.”
“Get anything you want, baby boy,” Yoongi smiled, admiring the look of awe on Jimin��s face.
“Anything?” He gaped at the merch, pointing at a simple shirt with Steve Aoki scribbled across it. “What do you think of this shirt? And matching Fall Out Boy hats?”
“I love it,” Yoongi beamed.
Jimin asked for the two hats and shirt, holding them in his arms with a giant grin as Yoongi paid. He peeled one of the hats out of the plastic bag, putting it over his hair, fitting perfectly. As they left the booth, JImin took out Yoongi’s as well and set it on his head. “It’s a good look on you.” He beamed. “Thank you again, this is the best thing ever.” He unwrapped the shirt, looking at it with admiration. “I can’t wait to wear this!”
Yoongi laughed at Jimin’s excitement and adjusted the hat on his head, “I’m glad you’re happy, Jiminnie.” They stopped to grab a couple water bottles each, and walked back over to their seats with a good 20 minutes left until Fall Out Boy was supposed to even come out.
Jimin pulled out his phone, taking millions of selfies with them and their hats and filmed the arena around them, excitedly pointing at the stage saying Steve Aoki was just there. Once he was satisfied, Jimin sat back down in his seat, throwing an arm across Yoongi’s shoulders. “This is definitely going on my list of the top five best dates.”
Yoongi smiled and tilted his head towards Jimin, “Good. Me too.”
Jimin turned his head toward Yoongi, raising an eyebrow. “Best Fall Out Boy song?”
“I’m always a sucker for What a Catch, Donnie and Grand Theft Autumn/Where Is Your Boy. But honestly, The Phoenix is my hoe jam. Take This To Your Grave is their best album, but Save Rock And Roll had a lot of bangers.”
“And Thnks fr the Mmrs! You can’t forget the iconic chimpanzees.” Jimin chimed in.
Yoongi chuckled, “Ah, yes. That one is good too.”
“It’s a classic, alongside Dance Dance!” Jimin sat up from his seat, performing the dokiest dance while singing out some lyrics.
“Oh my god, stop that. You’re such a dork.”
Jimin only raised his voice, singing louder and serenading his boyfriend in front of the crowd of people sitting around them. He heard a few chuckle and one person cheering loudly further up the row. “See, they like it!”
Yoongi laughed and pulled Jimin down into a headlock, pulling off his hat and ruffling up his hair, “Yah, cute Jimin is for me and me alone.”
“Aw, is someone jealous that I got a whole audience to fall for my charms?” Jimin fixed his hair, readjusting the cap.
“I’m not jealous. Min Yoongi is never jealous.”
“Mhmm.” Jimin hummed, pinching his cheek. “That’s not what your pouty face says, sugar lips.”
Yoongi huffed and folded his arms across his chest, “Whatever.”
“Ohh, sugar lips,” Jimin cooed, scooting closer. “You’re cute when you’re annoyed.”
Yoongi stuck out his tongue at Jimin, not wanting to press further.
Jimin grinned, taking Yoongi’s hand in his. “Don’t worry, my cute side is reserved just for you only. In fact, I’ll exclusively give you my very own Fall Out Boy performance, no one else will ever see it.”
“This sounds like it could be kinky,” Yoongi pondered. “Will you be wearing clothing during this performance?”
“That’s up to you.” Jimin grinned, winking.
Yoongi shot Jimin a mischievous smile and wiggled his eyebrows at him. “Hmm, give me a lap dance to Dance, Dance. That would be sexy as fuck.”
Jimin let out a laugh, tilting his head back. “Whatever you like, sugar lips.”
Yoongi grinned, “Wow I’m so fucking whipped for you.”
“I know you are, but you know what?” Jimin glanced back and forth before leaning in closely, whispering. “I’m fucking whipped for you too.”
Yoongi turned his head to catch Jimin’s lips with his own, not caring that there were people all around them.
“You’re not so shy when it comes to public displays of affection, are you?” Jimin muttered against his lips, grinning.
Yoongi shrugged, “I don’t really care. If that couple three rows ahead can be so into each other without fuss, then so can I.”
“Then let’s show this whole arena how disgustingly in love we are, I don’t care.” Jimin smiled, grabbing Yoongi’s shirt and pulling him in for another kiss.
Yoongi smiled into the kiss, reaching up to caress Jimin’s face. “I love you,” he mumbled against Jimin’s lips.
“I love you more, Min Yoongi.”
Yoongi scrunched his nose, “Nice try, Jiminnie, but I’m the hyung and I love you more.”
“Nooo, that can’t be.” Jimin pouted. “I’m the one that found you, I was one hundred percent whipped from the start.”
Yoongi shook his head, “I don’t care. I definitely love you more.”
Jimin slapped the brim of Yoongi’s cap down, falling onto his face. “Shush, you can’t out love me.”
“Just you wait, Park Jimin. I’ll show you.”
“And how exactly will you do that?”
Yoongi winked, “You’ll find out tonight, baby.”
“Oh?” His eyebrows rose in surprise. “This just gives me another thing to look forward to tonight.”
“We’re gonna be up all night, baby,” Yoongi smirked. “It’s a good thing checkout isn’t until 11.”
“Hmm,” Jimin gave him a smug grin. “You’re so full of surprises, sugar lips.”
As Yoongi leaned in for another kiss, the lights dimmed, and the audience erupted into cheers. The Phoenix started playing, and Yoongi broke away from Jimin. He perked up, nearly jumping out of his seat to cheer along with the rest of the audience.
“PUT ON YOUR WAR PAINT,” Patrick Stump sang. Yoongi grabbed onto Jimin’s shoulder with excitement. “PUT ON YOUR WAR PAINT.”
“You are a brick tied to me that’s dragging me down. Strike a match and I’ll burn you to the ground. We are the Jack-O-Lanterns in July, setting fire to the sky. Here, here comes this rising tide, so COME ON!” Yoongi sang along, a wide grin present on his face the whole time. As the chorus hit, he started jumping and dancing around with Jimin. It was the best feeling in the world, letting loose with Jimin to some good, live music.
Jimin was smiling, watching his boyfriend sing at the top of his lungs. Everyone around them were cheering so loudly, the beat of the music vibrated against his ears, they could practically burst. But Jimin didn’t notice, everything around him became a blur and all he could see was Yoongi jumping beside him, lost in the song. He felt so happy and content watching him in his element. He danced beside Yoongi, singing along loudly, and probably terribly with him.
Fall Out Boy played for what seemed like a fleeting moment, but it was really two hours. Yoongi lost himself in the music, having the time of his life. When the last song finished and the confetti was falling into the audience, Yoongi looked over at Jimin with the biggest grin on his face. Sweat was dripping down his neck, and he could tell that Jimin was hot and sweaty too. They both just smiled at each other, reveling in the time they had just spent together. Yoongi held out his hand and pulled Jimin towards the end of the aisle, trying to squeeze their way into the mass exodus.
Slowly, they mazed their way through the crowd of people leaving, still in a daze from the excitement earlier. When they finally reached the outside of the venue, Jimin breathed in the fresh air, the breeze cooling him off. “That was literally the best concert I’ve only ever gone to!” Jimin commented as they made their way to the bus stop, grinning to himself every now and again whenever he thought about the concert or seeing how happy Yoongi was.
The grin on Yoongi’s face never faltered as he walked, swinging his and Jimin’s hands between them. “That was really fun. I’m glad you took me to see Fall Out Boy.”
“I’m so glad you enjoyed it!” Jimin replied, his chest fluttering whenever he glanced toward Yoongi, seeing his wide, gummy smile. He had never seen someone elated, it was only expression he wanted to see on Yoongi.
“I’m hungry and ready to sweep you off your feet, come on. Get on the bus, baby boy.”
Grinning, Jimin followed Yoongi onto the full bus, standing in the aisle and holding onto one of the handles.
Yoongi let Jimin hold them in place, as he wrapped his arm around his waist and held on tightly. “If you go down, we both do.”
“If I jump off a cliff, you would jump too?” Jimin asked, raising his eyebrows.
“You jump, I jump, right?” Yoongi quoted.
“Aw,” Jimin smiled, touched by his words. “You so loyal, hyung. Let’s just jump together from now on.”
Yoongi leaned his head onto Jimin’s shoulder, “You already know I’d do anything for you.”
“You should know that goes the same for you too, hyung.” Jimin ran his fingers through the hair peeking out at the back of Yoongi’s cap.
Yoongi closed his eyes and smiled as Jimin stroked the hair on the back of his neck, still coming off his post concert high.
The two stood quietly in the bus, eventually spotting empty seats to sit in halfway through their trip back to the hotel. When they arrived to the bus stop, the two got off the vehicle into the cool, night air. A shiver ran down Jimin’s spine, his sweat having gone cold. “Come on, let’s get changed and grab our food. I’m starving and we have the gayest picnic to attend to.”
Yoongi chuckled as Jimin pulled him up into the elevator, eagerly waiting the 30-odd floors it took to get to their room.
When the elevator reached their floor, Jimin skipped out, twirling his cap in the air, singing Dance Dance out loud as his voice echoed through the hallway.
Yoongi shushed his boyfriend, whispering that there were humans trying to sleep at this hour, and that he needed to be quiet in the hallway. Jimin just rolled his eyes at his boyfriend and continued skipping to their room, humming the song. “You’re a menace,” Yoongi mumbled as they walked into their room.
“Just for you, hyung!” Jimin shot gun fingers at him before rummaging through his duffle bag, pulling out a warmer set of clothes to change into.
Yoongi followed suit, discarding his tee and jacket for a maroon crewneck sweater with floral print on it.
Jimin slid into a cream colored sweater with a red stripe across the middle, GCDS written inside of it followed with dark washed jeans. He ruffled up his hair after it created a coconut shape from the hat and slipped the bag full of food over his shoulder, waiting until Yoongi was ready.
Once Yoongi was satisfied with his messy hair, he grabbed onto Jimin’s free hand and let the younger boy lead him out of the hotel room. “So, where exactly are we going?”
A soft smile grew across Jimin’s lips as they headed for the elevator. “Olympic park. It’s the best place for a picnic, but because it’s night time, it’ll be peaceful and quiet there. There’s the cutest little lake there surrounded by trees!”
Yoongi smiled, “Sounds perfect, Jiminnie!”
“And Jin made us so much delicious food, we’re going to eat so well tonight.” JImin nearly drooled at the thought, resisting the temptation to pull out one of the tupperwares and start shoving his face with food. They eventually exited the hotel, going back to the bus stop and getting on as soon as it arrived. After a while, with the occasional small chatter and bursts of laughter throughout the ride, the bus arrived to the stop near the park as Jimin hopped out beside Yoongi, stretching his arms out. “Ah, we’re finally here!” He murmured and led Yoongi onto a trail through the cluster of trees until they reached the small lake, the bright, full moon reflecting off the water. “It’s so beautiful out tonight!” Jimin gasped, running onto the grass to claim their picnic spot.
Yoongi chuckled, and followed behind at his same pace, letting Jimin start the setup as he neared. “Yeah, you are,” Yoongi winked.
Jimin paused his setup, nearly choking on his saliva. “That was the cheesiest response…” He mumbled, thankful that it was dark enough so Yoongi couldn’t see his flushed cheeks. He finished taking out the tupperware, peeling off all the lids. “Jin really went all out, he made so much more than I asked for...bless him. Best roommate ever.”
“Just wait till he and Namjoon start going at it on a day where you are tired to the bone and all you want is proper sleep,” Yoongi mumbled.
“Oh no,” Jimin whined, handing Yoongi his chopsticks. “We’ll just have to give them revenge on their exhausted days.”
Yoongi arched an eyebrow, “Oh will we now?”
“What comes around, goes around.” Jimin grinned, picking up one of the tupperwares, tasting the homemade food Jin made. “This is delicious, try it!” He picked up one of the kimbap rolls, waving it toward Yoongi.
Yoongi leaned forward and grabbed the kimbap roll between his front teeth, taking a generous bite out of it. He chewed and smiled at Jimin, giving him a thumbs up.
Jimin stuffed his mouth with the food, being hit with the post-concert hunger. The silence was comforting between the two as they ate, exchanging smiles whenever their eyes met. The park around them was empty besides a person or two strolling along the trails. The air was filled with the faint chirping of crickets and the soft splashing of the water hitting the land.
Yoongi broke the silence first, asking Jimin how the night was going compared to how he thought it would go.
“Honestly,” Jimin spoke up. “This is been one of the best nights. The best weekend ever, actually.” He gazed at Yoongi as he ate, not realizing the smile that was stretched across his lips. Butterflies fluttered in his stomach whenever Jimin looked at him, feeling so unbelievably happy and ridiculously lucky to have this man in front of him.
“Good, because I feel the same way,” Yoongi grinned, shoving a bite of japchae into his mouth.
“I’m so glad,” Jimin chuckled, finishing one of the tupperwares of food and setting it onto his lap, staring at Yoongi again, unable to take his eyes off of him. “Min Yoongi?”
Yoongi set his food down and looked at Jimin, “Yeah, Jiminnie?”
“I love you.” He smiled. “I know I say it a lot, but I really, truly mean it Yoongi. I love you.”
Yoongi leaned over and kissed Jimin on the temple, “And I truly mean it when I say I love you, Jimin.”
“It’s only our two month anniversary, but why does it already feel like we’re celebrating five years?”
Yoongi chuckled, “Because we are a couple of romantic saps.”
“We’re so fucking gay, that’s what.”
Yoongi guffawed, falling onto his back in his fit of laughter. “We really are.”
Jimin laid himself over Yoongi’s chest. “In my opinion, out of all of our friends, we’re probably the most gay couple there.” He brushed a thumb across Yoongi’s cheek, grinning.
“I mean, have you seen Jin and Namjoon cuddling on the couch? They are as domestic and married as it gets.”
Jimin rolled his eyes, laughing at the thought. “You do have a point, they’re about as domestic as any other parent out there with 5 children to feed.”
“I don’t think we need to rank all of us. It’s just a given nowadays that gay people naturally find each other and become friends. We can all just be equally gay together.”
Jimin let out a happy sigh. “We need more people like you in the world, Min Yoongi.”
Yoongi smiled, stroking Jimin’s hair. “Hey, I promised I’d dance with you under the stars. Pick a song, Jiminnie.”
“Under the Stars by John Legend.” Jimin giggled. “It’s fitting, no?”
Yoongi kissed the top of Jimin’s head, “Perfect.”
Jimin sat himself up, holding out a hand to help Yoongi up from the ground. “Let’s dance, hyung.”
Yoongi took Jimin’s hand and loaded up the music on his phone. As it began to play, he placed it on the ground and took Jimin’s other hand into his own, “Uh, I’ve never danced like this before. What do I do?”
Jimin let out a giggle. “Just follow my steps, it comes to you naturally.” Jimin took a step back as Yoongi took one forward, repeating with the other foot.
Yoongi dropped one of Jimin’s hands, and set it on the younger’s hip, “This is where I place my hands, right?”
“That’s right,” Jimin nodded, putting his hand on Yoongi’s shoulder. “Just move slowly and don’t think too hard about it.”
And so Yoongi followed Jimin’s lead, picking up the steps quickly. They swayed back and forth for a moment, Yoongi completely serene as he held onto the younger man.
“You’re a natural!” Jimin exclaimed, letting go of Yoongi and extending the other arm to give him a short twirl before pulling him back in. “Are you sure you haven’t done this before?”
“Not in real life, no. In my dreams, yeah. Always with you.”
“How can we be so sure that this isn’t a dream? It really feels like one.” Jimin smiled, gazing into his dark eyes he could have sworn held the entire universe.
“You can’t be. You just have to trust that you won’t wake up from this reality.”
“I never want to anyway, my reality seem far better than my dreams.”
“God, what cheesy drama are we acting in?” Yoongi laughed, leaning his face closer to Jimin’s.
“The kind that will capture everyone’s hearts and win a award in the most romantic and cheesiest.” He pressed his forehead against Yoongi’s, grinning.
Yoongi smiled, “Better than Goblin.”
“A million times better than Goblin.” Jimin stated and began humming to the song playing in the background, quietly singing along to the lyrics.
“You have the most beautiful voice, Jimin. Have I ever told you?” Yoongi swooned.
“It’s...it’s nothing.” Jimin stuttered, growing flustered at his compliment. “I mean, I like to sing but it’s nowhere near as good as the voices you hear out there.”
“Baby, I’m gonna write a song for you, and I want you to sing it, okay? Would you do that for me?” Yoongi asked with wide eyes.
“Me? Sing? I...are you sure?”
“One hundred percent.”
“Okay…” Jimin smiled shyly. “Okay, I’ll do it. Anything for you, honey.” They continued swaying gently, engrossed in their dance under the night sky of Seoul.
Yoongi smiled, resting his head on Jimin’s shoulder, “This night has been perfect.”
“I second this. This is the most peaceful I’ve felt in a long time.” They danced on until the music slowly faded to an end, finalizing their dance with another twirl, Jimin’s soft giggles interrupting the silence of the night. “Thank you for the dance, Yoongi.”
“It was entirely my pleasure, Jiminnie,” he smiled, letting go of Jimin’s waist and bringing his hand up to stroke Jimin’s hair.
Jimin tilted his head, leaning into his touch, his eyes never straying away from Yoongi’s. It felt like it was only the two of them in the entire world. Because of how calm and relaxed their past two days have been, Jimin’s mind had completely detached from the stress of reality. There was no one else besides Yoongi that could loosen him up this much, to realize that it was okay to disconnect himself from everything and enjoy the very moment between them.
Jimin realized at that moment that he was absolutely and completely smitten for this man. He could see his future so clearly with him and he could not wait for their lives to start as soon as this small trip was over. Just the thought of the littlest things like brushing their teeth together in the bathroom with matching toothbrushes or spending a Sunday folding their laundry together made him smile, excitement bubbling in his stomach.
“Jimin, let’s head back. It’s time to de-stress in that bathtub.”
“I’d love nothing more than that.” A soft smile grew across his lips as they went back to their picnic area, putting away the now empty tupperwares into Jimin’s duffle bag. He slipped it over his shoulder and they made their way back to the trail. Jimin followed behind, checking through his bag to make sure he had everything. When he found his small camera, he pulled it out and stopped in his tracks. “Yah, Min Yoongi!” Jimin shouted suddenly, causing Yoongi to jump around with a surprised expression. A bright flash lit up the area around them as a snort escaped from Jimin, a little card popping out of the camera. “Oh this is gonna turn out so good.” He cackled to himself, waving the card around in the air as if that would make it develop faster.
Yoongi stuck out his tongue at Jimin, “Did you get a good pic, baby?”
Jimin looked down at the picture, halfway through its development, nodding. “As usual, it’s so much easier capturing you like this than I expected.” He caught up beside Yoongi, holding the photo in his hand as if it was his prized possession. “Here’s picture number two for our wall.”
“Give me the camera, Jiminnie,” Yoongi requested, already reaching for it. “I need one of you now.”
“Mmm, no!” Jimin teased, waving his hands away from Yoongi, skipping backwards.
“Fine, I’ll just take pictures of you naked later tonight,” Yoongi teased.
“Kinky one, aren’t you?” Jimin pressed the shutter again, the blinding flash lighting up the space again. “You’re so photogenic, I just can’t help it.” He pulled out the developing card, adding it to his pile.
“Hmm, take one us kissing,” Yoongi said, pulling Jimin to his side.
Jimin tilted his head, pressing his lips against Yoongi’s as he held out the camera, the flash going off once more and the sound of another card popping out. He drew his arm back down and used the other one to pull Yoongi in, their kiss still lingering.
Yoongi didn’t mind the fact that Jimin kept kissing him. In fact, he just craved more of Jimin’s touch. He trailed kisses down Jimin’s jaw and stopped at the point where Jimin’s jaw met his ear. He took Jimin’s distracted moment to snatch the camera out of his hand and took a snapshot of a flustered Jimin.
“Hyung,” Jimin whined, pouting as he realized Yoongi’s ulterior motive, watching him take the developing card out. “That’s not fair, you can’t take advantage of me like that.” His cheeks flushed, crossing his arms.
“Hm, you can punish me later,” Yoongi winked.
Jimin’s eyebrows rose before a grin crept onto his lips. “Oh? If you say so.” He leaped onto Yoongi’s back, wrapping his arms gently around his neck and his legs around his waist. “Then hyung, carry me back, I’m tired. I need to save my energy for tonight.”
Yoongi grunted as Jimin jumped onto his back, but made sure to get a good hold on him. He walked them both to the bus, and sat Jimin down on the bench at the stop. “This was such a good night, Jiminnie.”
“I’m so glad.” He smiled. “I was trying so hard to out-do your last date with the sparklers at the Han River, but I’ll admit, it’s still my most favorite night. You should have seen your face when I finally called you hyung, I should have had the camera at the time.”
Yoongi snorted, “You have to understand, I wasn’t expecting that… like ever. You seemed so adamant to not call me hyung.”
“I was just waiting for the perfect time so I could get the exact reaction I got that night.” Jimin boasted. “At first I was too shy though, but you helped break those walls down. After that, I watched our friends make bets and waited. I gotta say, it was well worth it.”
“I’m glad you did,” Yoongi smiled.
The bus eventually arrived, Jimin hopping into the vehicle with Yoongi following behind. It was vacant, let alone the bus driver and Jimin skipped over to one of the seats, tugging Yoongi down beside him. He leaned against the window, stretching his legs across Yoongi’s lap. “You make a comfortable leg rest, thank you.” Jimin giggled as the bus went along its route.
“I’m here for you, baby boy. Whatever you need, I can provide,” he chuckled and rested his right hand on Jimin’s thigh.
“Ah, always there for me in dire times like now.” He giggled, his eyes forming into crescents. The bus was quiet and peaceful with a light melody playing softly in the background. “Min Yoongi, I don’t really think I’ve ever asked, but what’s your dream? Like after we finish college, what do you want to do?”
“I uh, actually wanna write and produce music,” Yoongi smiled.
“I think that’s amazing, are you looking into any music companies yet?”
“Nah. I just kinda post things on Soundcloud.”
“Ohh,” Jimin grinned. “I’ll post your soundcloud across all my social medias and promote you like the number one fan I am! Gotta represent my man, you know?”
Yoongi chuckled, “Good. I love you, Jimin. I hope you know that.”
“I too, love you, but you probably already knew that.” The bus made several stops in their route before reaching their destination. Jimin lifted his feet off of Yoongi’s lap and followed him out of the bus, thanking the driver before entering the warm hotel, the lobby now empty. They approached the elevator, waiting for the metallic door to open. Jimin stood closely beside Yoongi, his arm slung around his waist.
“I still love hearing you say it, though,” Yoongi smiled, kissing the top of Jimin’s head.
They entered the elevator, Jimin pressing the button of their floor before leaning in. “Well, I love you, Min Yoongi.” He whispered in his ear before leaving light kisses along his jawline.
“You really know how to seduce a man,” Yoongi smiled, eyes rolling shut in bliss as Jimin continued to kiss him.
“You’re an easy one to please.” Jimin grinned, stopping as the elevator doors open, leading Yoongi into the hallway toward their room. He pulled out the card key, unlocking the door and tossed the duffle bag aside in the the living room, bolting straight to the bathroom. “Bath time, bath time, bath time!” He shouted with a childish tone.
Yoongi chuckled and followed behind Jimin, slowly stripping off his suspenders and shoes as the door latched behind him.
Jimin peeled off his shirt, tossing it across the room, landing directly on Yoongi’s head and let out bursts of giggles. “That was purely accidental, I promise!”
Yoongi huffed and pulled Jimin’s shirt off his face. “Oh don’t think you’re gonna get away with that one,” he threatened, pulling off his own shirt and unbuttoning his pants.
Jimin stuck out his tongue, starting up the bath as it filled up, pouring some soap to create a thick layer of bubbles, the room lingering with the sweet scent of vanilla. He finished peeling off the rest of his layers, tossing them in a pile alongside Yoongi’s and stepped into the tub once it was filled, sighing at the warmth. He lifted up his arm covered in bubbles, gesturing Yoongi to join.
Yoongi smiled and stepped into the tub, situating himself between Jimin’s legs and leaning back against his chest. He sighed with contentment as his muscles relaxed in the hot water and turned his head to kiss Jimin’s cheek. “This is so perfect.”
“Not nearly as perfect as you though, hyung.” Jimin squeezed some shampoo onto Yoongi’s hair, massaging his fingers into his scalp, using a stress-relieving technique he once learned from Taehyung during the stressful nights before a big show. “Does this feel alright, honey?”
“It feels so good, Jimin. I now know why dogs like being scratched on the head.”
A snort escaped from Jimin as he ran his thumbs along the nape of his neck, pressing gently into some of the pressure points. “Let me know whenever you’re stressed out, I can provide with cheap head massages.”
“Cheap as in free for the man who stole your heart?” Yoongi inquired.
“Plus tax.”
Yoongi pouted, “The tax better be a kiss or something.”
“Hmm, I think I can take that into consideration. But one needs to make some money, you know.” Jimin shrugged innocently, shaping Yoongi’s silvery hair into little spikes across his head.
“Just add it all to my Jimin loan and I’ll pay it all off one day by buying us a home of our own,” Yoongi winked.
“It’s a deal!” Jimin beamed, piling bubbles onto Yoongi’s head. “We’ll have such a big and expensive place with all that loan money.”
Yoongi laughed, “Whatever you want, Jimin. Once I become a hot-shot producer I’ll buy you the biggest and best house ever.”
“I’ll support you every step of the way until you become one. You can do anything, Min Yoongi.” Jimin stated, washing the suds out of Yoongi’s hair. “Really, anyone who says otherwise is lying.”
Yoongi smiled, “Thank you, Jimin. I really appreciate you. Tell me, how can I appreciate you tenfold and help you with your dreams?”
“Just keep doing what you love and produce music for me to dance to, that is, if you like to. I love dancing to your music.”
Yoongi shifted so he could look at Jimin, “Of course, baby. Also, I know I said you could top tonight, but I’m so tired right now. Is it okay if we just relax and then go to bed? We can do whatever you want tomorrow in our bed.”
“Of course honey, we did a lot today and before you know it, will be back in school stressing over our assignments. Get as much rest as you can.
“Mmmh,” Yoongi hummed in agreement. “You know you’ll never be able to get me out of bed with you in the mornings. I’ll just hold tightly onto you and snuggle us deep into the blankets.”
“Now it’s just going to be harder for me get out of bed, sugar lips.” Jimin grinned.

“The Only Way To Have A Consistent Golf Game!”
—–Original Message—– From: Jerry Cook [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: 15 January 2009 09:32 To: Andy Anderson Subject: Hello
Howdy Andy…
I have been using the New Four Magic Moves off and on for the past 6 months with varied results, but that is my own fault as I also find myself slipping back into other ways of approaching the golf swing which has led to body and mind confusion.
When I consistently stick to the First Magic Move, my bad swings at least result in straight shots and that is not too bad as this is far better results than lots of the other approaches to swings that create pulls, pushes slices and hooks as well as lots of topped and fat shots.
I have been playing golf again after a 30+ year absence from the wonderful but often frustrating game. When I played before I was in my 20’s and 30’s and my golf swing was my own as I had neither taken lessons nor done much reading about the science and art of a gold swing. Gee, I wish I had known of the New Four Magic Moves back then.
In summary, after playing around with at least 6 other approaches to the golf swing, I am now more convinced than ever that the New Four Magic Moves is about the only way to have a consistent golf game. I will now go to the practice tee and work on these moves hoping they will become so automatic that I can then only have to concentrate on set up and alignment on the course which should allow for more wonderful times and less frustration while playing.
At 63 years of age, my intention is to shoot my age on or before reaching the age of 66. When using basically the New Four Magic Moves, I have shot a low of 69 which is not too bad for someone who has only been playing for 9 months, eh.. I firmly believe that the New Four Magic Moves will help me shoot some great rounds in the future.
Be well Andy and thanks for all the added information that you share with us duffers through your website and emails.

They could not believe my new found length and accuracy.It feels good and just wanted to share . Thank you for helping me and changing my game …

“I Wish Golf Had Been Taught To Me In This Simple Manner Several Years Ago. It Would Have Taken Out A Great Deal Of Frustration!”
—–Original Message—– From: David Walker [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: 9 April 2007 18:01 To: Andy Anderson Subject: Testimonial
Dear Andy,
I must admit that I was a bit skeptical of the 4 magic moves. I teach Biology in the US and always need proof or evidence. I downloaded the free first four chapters and tried things out for myself. I had the opportunity to try things out this weekend and my results are amazing. I was hitting my 7 iron 200 yds without effort and my driver close to 300 yds. Most impressive was the direction of the ball, it is travelling STRAIGHT. I wish golf had been taught to me in this simple manner several years ago. It would have taken out a great deal of frustration.
Thank you,
David Walker

“23 Handicapper Drops 5 Strokes To An 18 In Just A Couple Of Weeks!”
—–Original Message—– From: Al Lott [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: 21 December 2006 16:04 To: Andy Anderson Subject: Re: 121-4 & CD
Andy,
Thanks for the CD’s format. Love the audio, listen to it over and over again and every time another bell rings. It has allowed me to go through The New Four Magic Moves a second and third time now and with every review, out comes (what I will call) a new pointer.
Wish I had gotten this info 20 years ago. I can’t believe how easy your instructions are to follow.
Bottom line is you have now got me from a 23 handicapper to an 18 in a couple of weeks. So much so, that my playing partners want to know how much my lessons are costing me.
This brings me to a question, Do you offer gift certificates? Although it’s a little late for Xmas gifts
Thank You
Al

If you’re searching for a simple, fast way to slash up to 12 strokes from your game, add 35 yards to your drives, eliminate hooks and slices and improve your putting and short game this is the most important letter you’ll ever read…
Here’s why …
Until very recently I was your basic “hacker”. I had a love/hate relationship with golf some days I’d be driving like a pro, maybe even flirting occasionally with par
while the next afternoon my game would absolutely go all to hell. I swear I’ve stood at the edge of the lake, holding my bag overhead, one emotional hair-trigger away from tossing the whole mess and never stepping up to another ball the rest of my life.
Doesn’t it drive you nuts? I had no consistency to my game at all, even after 29 years of playing regularly. No way to tell what each round would bring. And it wasn’t for lack of trying, either I’d easily dropped more cash than I dare think about having “pro’s” tell me what a horrible slice I had, and if only I would start twisting my body like this on the upswing
Let’s face it, mastering the finer techniques of golf is tough!
There’s no doubt, it’s probably the most difficult lesson for any golfer to learn. Frankly, the perfect golf swing is the only subject you can’t fake…
Of course, some people will tell you they can do just fine without properly understanding the golf swing. WRONG! Just take a look at their own golf results. Their scores speak for themselves!
I can HONESTLY say that almost everyone I see on the golf course and range is “dead wrong” when it comes to practicing their golf swing.
In fact, this may completely shock you, but I guarantee you the way you’re practicing right now is definitely…
“Cheating You Out Of 90% Of The Success You Should Be Getting!”
Not only that, you may be wasting hours of your time and energy each week at the driving range because of improper swing techniques robbing you of the improvements you could be making.
… Just by making a few small changes to your swing, you will radically transform the way you play golf.
It’s true. I have recevied over 865 testimonials in 3 years from golfers like you who have gone on to cut their handicap.
And you can too, using these four little-known swing techniques you can also take your current game and “twist” it to reach your full playing potential.
So if you’re frustrated with wasting your time on the range, not satisfied with the scores you’re making, keep

“Four Strokes Off My Handicap In Two Months”
“Thank you Andy. After a few short hours reading your book and listening to the audio files I knew the exact changes I had to make to my swing. In the last two months I have knocked four strokes off my handicap. I can’t believe how easy the game of golf has become.

H Todd, Atlanta GA

Thanks Andy for providing this valuable resource!”
E Allen, San Antonio Tx
So if you’re fed up of hearing the same old marketing hype over and over again that’s siphoning cash from your pocket and wasting your precious time, keep reading…
I’ll prove to you why you can trust me to show you how to achieve astonishing results in your golf game.
“Why Should You Listen To Me? What Is So Special About Me?”
My name is Andy Anderson.
I’m a company director living in Fife, Scotland – just 15 minutes from the Home of Golf at St Andrews. Previous to setting up my own company in 2002 I worked exclusively in the golf industry for nine years. During this time I worked for Tiger Wood’s management company IMG in London and the European Tour based at Wentworth in Surrey, England.
Online, I’ve had the pleasure of helping just over 13,270 people worldwide realise their dreams of significantly cutting their handicap.
I created this web site to ensure you don’t waste all your years on the range like I once did. One thing is for sure, I don’t want to see another golfer fall for all the so called expert advice out there. You need to know the truth about what it really takes to propel your game further than ever before.
Agreed? After all isn’t it right you focus all your efforts on chopping strokes off your handicap, rather than being left in the dark about how to change your swing?
That way, you don’t continue to waste hours on the range for little or even worse no result.
In short I’ve discovered what it really takes to transform anyone’s golf swing – by this, I mean real people like you and me. They have names and faces. They all have success stories to tell, it is thrilling to see …
What’s more, I’m a normal person and certainly not the perfect height for golf at six foot five. Like you… I haven’t got the athletic build of Tiger Woods or the dedication to put in many hours of practice like Vijay Singh!
And that’s not all, I wasn’t lucky enough to be born with natural sporting ability. I never won any junior golf events throughout my teens and I was convinced I would never be able to improve. In conclusion – I’m your average guy.
Here’s My Story …
Just a few short years ago I moved to the Home of Golf, that’s me above on the Swilken Bridge on The Old Course at St Andrews.
Probably just like yourself – I was continually looking for a way in which I could change my game forever. I guess I was like a sheep following the rest of the flock. I can’t tell you the number of times I burnt a hole in my pocket convinced I had found the next “all singing – all dancing” golf improvement course. I bought all the magazines and DVDs, and everytime I would fall for the latest golf trainer product – you should see my garage!
Ultimately it was complete frustration, I was going around in circles. Each time I would spend money I hadn’t got, then waste countless hours on the range and see no improvement at all. In fact sometimes my scores would get even worst!
However many golf lessons I had, however many golf DVDs I watched, however many golf magazines I read, however many times I practiced – I never seemed to get better.
The result? Huge disappointment.
I kept asking myself …
“Why Can’t I Excel At This Game I’m So Passionate About?”
Then just when I was ready to throw my clubs in the sea and say goodbye to the game forever, I had a light bulb moment. It occurred to me I had to change my thinking – in essence get smart. And as a result I learned the most important lesson in my life, quite simply it was this …
If you keep doing the same things, youll keep getting the same results. If you want a different result then do something differently.
It struck me that I could achieve anything I wanted by learning how to do it and that included becoming a much better golfer.
“How I Discovered The Secret That Cut My Handicap And Over 944 Other Golfers!.”
So, off I went in search of information and advice to help me significantly improve my golf swing.
I was on a mission to discover why some people found it incredibly easy to lower their handicaps whilst the vast majority struggled.
I searched online, offline, in ALL of the local book stores and was about to give up and think of ways to sell my clubs on eBay when by chance I stepped inside a second hand book store in St Andrews – right next to the Old Course – 15 minutes from where I live.
And that’s when it happend……
After another hour or so of what I assumed to be a fruitless search something caught my eye …… and within minutes I was completely engrossed in an incredible book that I knew instantly was the answer I was looking for!
I’d stumbled across a book that showed a unique and simple way to play golf.
At a time when I was so confused about the golf swing ….
“… I Had Finally Found The Answer !”
In a nutshell …
There’s an ugly little myth shared by most amateur golfers that is causing you to absorb up to a dozen unnecessary strokes, each and every round.
Here is how this ugly little myth works,
1. You watch a favorite professional golfer perform his “patented” swing, paying close attention to every detail.
2. You then duplicate every detail into your own swing, from memory, hoping to acheive the same result the pro does.
3. You then have one of the worst rounds of your life.
Hey, I’ve been a sucker for trying to “steal” pro’s secrets all my life. I’ll watch a tournament on television, paying close attention to Tiger or Phil or Ernie, catch a little something they do in their swing, and then go out and try to copy it. And I’ll bet YOU’VE done the same thing… because, simply, EVERY golfer does it at some time or another.
The problem is, you can’t “figure out” what the pro is actually doing just from watching, because so much of the swing is “inside“. You may think you see Tiger uncock his wrist on the downswing… heck, CBS or Sky Sports may do a slow-motion repeat for you, pointing the uncocking out… but unless you understand WHY he’s uncocking at that particular moment in the swing, you’ll NEVER figure out how to incorporate such an action into your own swing.
That’s because Tiger has made a CHOICE. All the great golfers have. More specifically, there are exactly FOUR points in your swing where you also must make a critical CHOICE… and everything that happens in your swing will be affected by these four choices.
It’s like deciding which roads to take on your commute to work tomorrow. It may seem like a simple choice at first, but everything that happens to you after that choice queues, long delays, speed cameras, road works will be directly related!
The reason professional golfers are making fabulous incomes playing golf and you’re still trying to drop your handicap to single digits is because the pros have made good choices at each of these four vital points in their swing… and you still don’t know there are choices to be made.
… the bad swing is caused by a failure in execution at four critical points. Furthermore, golfers make the same mistakes at the same points, and this is true whether you test this principle with two golfers or two thousand.
Their mistakes can be broken down into the same basic wrong movements, occurring at the same critical places in the swing. This is one of the few definite, invariable patterns to be found in the bad golf swing.
These are called the Four Fatal Flaws.
Most poor or mediocre players manage to incorporate all four into one swing. Others have fewer, and score better. I learned that these Four Fatal Flaws had to be replaced with the right actions, namely the Four Magic Moves!
“H A L L E L U J A H – I Suddenly Realised …!”
… With the four right moves instead of the four wrong ones my swing would be better, my mistakes fewer, and my scores lower.
And this is exactly what happened ..
” … My Handicap Plummeted In Less Than Four Months!”
And it just gets better and better! My “slice” completely disappeared
and I became absolutely fearless on the links, going after every shot as if I had magical powers.
But it’s not magic at all! You see, what I learned from this book had almost nothing to do with me
and everything to do with the amazing new swing developed by one of America’s best-known teaching professionals Joe Dante (former president of the New Jersey Professional Golfers’ Association) over 40 years ago. Known as the professional who spill the beans on the secrets other pros don’t want amateurs to ever find out about (subscribe to my newsletter to find out the 25 golf fallacies golf pros tried to keep hidden for so long). Joe played with and beat many of the best golfers in the game, and spent a lifetime learning the science behind the pro game. When he decided to reveal his advanced secrets, smart golfers paid real close attention.
” … I Devoured Every Single Page … … As Fast As I Could … … I Felt Like I had Been Hit By A Lightning Bolt! …”
My golf improved so much that friends started to ask me how I had managed to completely transform my swing!
In fact , I knew sooner or later I would have to start lending my book out!
This is one thing I didn’t want to do – I knew they wouldn’t return it!
Golfers I hardly knew at my club came up to me and demanded to know how I had reduced my handicap so dramatically – seemingly overnight …
Friends would buy me a beer so as I would spend some time helping them with their swings.
So, it got me thinking…
“Why Not Make The Secrets Available To EVERYONE?”
As the saying goes…
“Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.”
That saying kind of stuck with me, because I felt the book would save me time and allow me to focus on my own game.
So, I took the plunge!
“… And Rewrote The New Four Magic Moves To Winning Golf …”
I decided to create a unique new improved version that shows the individual golfer from beginner to pro how to improve their golf swing themselves …
… Regardless if they have been playing the game 3 months or 30 years!
“… Not Only That … I Had The Whole Book Narrated .. So You Could Listen To Over 5 Hours Of Amazing Golf Instruction At Your Leisure …”
I created a simple (yet comprehensive) step-by-step “system” that would allow ANY golfer of ANY standard and playing at ANY level to learn how to use just four simple moves to cut at least seven strokes off their handicap.
I promise you, youll notice dramatic transformations in your golf swing almost immediately! Better than if you followed any other training program that so called “Golf Pros” would tell you to do.
“What Can You Expect From “The New Four Magic Moves To Winning Golf” Course? Just this: …”
Tap into the “Bull Whip Crack” of your right arm … which provides the most power humanly possible… replicating the classic “hitters” like Arnold Palmer and the late Moe Norman (This is the magic move you must make – you finally become a hitter, where your muscles play a huge role and you let the club do all the work. This will work wonders for you, and you’ll never go back to being “slapper”, forever trying to force grace from your swing… and forever having unpredictable results!)
Learn to use the natural torque in your pivot to blow right through the ball with accelerating power, just like Tiger Woods and Sergio Garcia! … Yes, you really can (Most amateurs adopt the “Easy-Chair Slouch” at the top of their bad backswings and guess what they’ll never hit a good one from here!. It’s unconscious, because most amateurs simply never realized the importantance of this move!

“Here’s What the Complete Course Contains… ”
The video, ebook and audio course consists of a 11 chapters, 56 pictures and over 5 hours of audio. Here’s what this jam-packed golf instruction course includes …
Chapter 1. – What You Can Do. Why don’t more people play better golf than they do? The blunt truth is that they don’t because the golf swing is heavily overlaid with a sludge of fallacy, misunderstanding, faulty theory, myth, and just plain ignorance. So thick is this coating that it is a wonder anyone ever gets through it and down to the hard, clean mechanics of the sound swing. It is this sludge, most of which has been covering the swing for so long that it now acts as an insulation, that I will cut away in this course. Once the myths and fallacies are exploded and the true machinery of the swing is laid bare for all to see and understand, golf becomes a much less difficult game.
Chapter 2. – Sweeping Out the Rubbish. Discover the two dozen fallacies of golf that are most prevalent and have caused and still cause the most damage. Particularly those which must be exploded thoroughly if you are to assimilate the new thoughts, principles, and actions given to you in this course. Watch carefully. The fuse is lit!
Chapter 3. – Getting Set: The Grip and the Stance. There can be no doubt that the first mistakes a golfer can make are to hold the club with a defective grip and to stand up to the ball the wrong way. Either puts a heavy impost on a player before he makes a move to swing the club. Together they make a good shot almost impossible.
Chapter 4. – The Backswing. Now you are ready to start the swing, to uncover the first fatal flaws that appear, with the horrible shots they produce, and to learn the first of the magic moves that will cut strokes from your score. This really is where the magic begins! It is the key move and the foundation of the swing
Chapter 5. – At The Top. The position at the top of the backswing is important. If it is reached correctly it means you are halfway through the swing correctly. It means that now, at least, you are in a position to make a good downswing and hit a good shot. With most of pupils I can tell pretty well, as can any pro, whether a shot will be good or bad just from their position at the top.
Chapter 6. – Starting Down. We can have a perfect grip, start back from the ball properly, reach the top in faultless position – and then ruin it all by the next move we make. Not only can the swing be ruined by this move, it is ruined about 95 per cent of the time. In this chapter you will learn how and why the fatal flaws develop on the first move down from the top and exactly what they are. You are also reminded again of the terrible shots they cause. The reminder may be painful but the gain in knowledge will be great. With it you will be able to replace the wrong moves and faulty positions with the right ones. When you do, you will cut strokes – many of them – from your score.
Chapter 7 – Through The Ball. For the poor or average player the same magic moves apply, but he must first learn to get himself into the position the good player is in as he reaches the hitting area. There are just no two ways about it. The final stage of the full swing is completed and all its mysteries are explained
Chapter 8 – The Short Game. As we see it, the short game falls, into four categories: the short pitch from thirty yards down, the green-side trap shot, the chip from the fringe, and the putt. The technique for this short pitch is the same, fundamentally, as for the full shot, except that it is in a modified form.
Chapter 9 – In And Out Of Trouble. On a golf course, as a rule, trouble comes at us swiftly and unexpectedly. There are times when we do not quite expect to carry a brook or a cross trap, or when we know we can easily miss a green with a wood or a long iron. Then we are not surprised when we find ourselves in difficulties. But much more often we stand on a tee, with a wide fairway beckoning, swing – and find ourselves in the woods or heavy rough – isn’t it time for a change!
Chapter 10 – The Early Break and the Late HitSecrets of Timing and Rhythm. The answer to the effort-distance puzzle is timing, but just what is timing? For one thing, it is a word that has been used more loosely, perhaps, than any other in golf literature. We have been blandly told that we should work to improve our timing, that our timing is off, that without good timing we cannot hope to play well. But what exactly is it? Today you will learn the secrets of timing and rhythm. We expose the truth at long last. Decide for yourself whether you want to be left in the dark any longer!
Chapter 11 – Thinking Your Way Around. So far, everything in this book and audio course has dealt with the physical actions of golf, the positions and movements of your hands, your feet, your body, your arms, and of the club itself. There is another side of golf, though, that is all too frequently overlooked in our sometimes frantic efforts to master the swing. This is the mental or thinking side of the game. Happily, this is not nearly so difficult to master as the rest, as you will find in this chapter

“But How Much Are YOU Willing to Pay to Potentially Turn Into A Low Single Figure Handicap Player?”
Some people buy countless manuals, videos and DVDs that literally cost thousands of dollars, pounds and euros! Other people hire the services of a professional that cost almost the same in the end.
(Remember, a golf professional can charge at least $45 a hour for their services!)
What price tag would YOU put on something with the opportunity to show you the steps to start playing like a professional golfer?
“Okay – So What’s The Cost For This Incredible Resource?”
Frankly, I thought long and hard about delivering this exclusive information only as part of a high-priced seminar where I charge at least $399.59 per person. But instead of going to all the trouble of arranging for a teaching room and golf range and taking time out of my schedule – I settled on an online video, digital ebook and audio course format as a perfect and convenient way to deliver this information (for you and me).
What does this mean for you?
Well I have no inventory and no fulfillment costs. I don’t have to set up a call centre to take telephone orders, so I can pass my cost savings along to YOU!
Don’t worry about downloading, everything is a snap and it works for both PC and MAC users plus you still get all the bonuses listed below.
So remember …
… If you’re truly serious about the possibility of learning how to develop the ability to hit amazing consistent golf shots, your entire investment is…
… Only $77, $57 $39.95

I truly value you as a long term client and I know you’ll be thrilled with the value in this $249.85 package that you’ll come back to me and buy from me time and time again, year after year.
I’d hate you to miss out …
Think about it for a moment. If you consider the fact that you would spend more than this amount on one golf lesson, then this tiny investment of only $39.95 is more than fair.
I have been told that this price is way too cheap!
In fact, I might be raising the price very soon. (I’m thinking of testing price points as high as $77 once my introductory launch is over.) So I urge you to get your hands on this course before it’s late… I’d hate to see you miss out!

we’re just sort of “holding” your money in escrow, so to speak. Because, once you receive your course, you have the next two months to use it

Only then — when the two months are up, and you are either absolutely convinced (and happy) or absolutely disappointed – am I asking you to decide if what you learned is worth your $39.95 or not. If what you saw revealed in the course didn’t allow you to go out to the range for an hour, and then start smacking drives 35 yards further, with all the consistency and accuracy and power I’ve promised you here
then simply tell me, and I’ll rush your money back to you. No hassles, no nonsense at all, no questions to answer. Just boom — you tell me, and I send your money back to you.
Thus, if you choose, you will have seen and heard the four magic moves

since we aren’t going to ask you any questions
if you choose , you can tell me you want a refund even if you ARE hitting further, more accurately, and with more power. It’s up to you. I’ll go broke, of course and friends say I’m being too generous, and that I will get ripped off. But I choose to believe that if I honestly deliver on MY promises (and I do), guys like you will happily pay the $39.95
and even be eager to see what else we have to share later on.

“How To Easily Cut 3 Shots By Knowing The Rules” by Andy Anderson ($27.97 Value)
Exclusive! As a super added bonus to “The New Four Magic Moves To Winning Golf”, I’m including a FREE copy of my ebook, “How To Easily Cut 3 Shots By Knowing The Rules”
This Let me spell it out to you – if you don’t know the rules there is no way you can benefit from them.
Don’t make the same costly mistakes I have made, you now have the opportunity to lower your score without even hitting a ball!
Here is an example of what I mean:
Rule 13-4: If a player has hit the ball from within a bunker but his ball remains in the bunker, he is allowed to rake the sand; however, he should not touch the sand with his club. Should a ball be hit out-of-bounds from within a bunker, the ball must be dropped nearest the point of the last shot within the bunker. Here again, the sand can be raked before the drop, but the club should not touch the sand.
Benefit: Although the club cannot touch the sand, the raking of sand before the drop is taken can eliminate obstruction and provide an easier sand shot.
Each rule is discussed in a way that will provide an understanding of the rule and how that understanding can be used to your advantage. On the course, the level of a golfer’s confidence directly impacts his or her performance. If there were nothing else to be gained, the confidence that comes from knowing the rules would be an immediate benefit. As you will see, however, there is much to be gained.

The first one is called Anchoring, and it will allow you to instantly move into your peak performance mindset.
The second one is called the Swish Pattern, and I’ll show you how to use it to become completely confident on the golf course, regardless of the situation.
And finally, the Brain Scramble (sounds dangerous, but it’s not) is a quick and easy way to let go of bad experiences from past rounds.
“Quickly and Easily Diffuse Negative Emotions After a Poor Shot and Get Back in the Zone”
Granted, these tricks and techniques are a bit “outside of the tee box”. However, the results that golfers from around the globe have achieved using these methods are just as uncommon. Grab Stephen’s special report FREE to when you order “The New Four Magic Moves To Winning Golf”.

My one sports blog of the year, and Jeremy’s Ticket Guy, Minneapolis & Chicago, IL, 4/3/17 - 4/9/17
This blog officially has multiple personality disorder. Some days it’s a fishing blog. Some days it wants to be a Green Egg barbecue blog. And other days, it looks more like a travel blog. This week, I’ve been fortunate enough to make it to a few really special sporting events. That said, bring on the sports blog!
Monday was Game 1 of the 2017 MLB baseball season. Since the Royals were in town for Opening Day, Dyan bought me insanely awesome tickets that were about 20 rows behind the Royals dugout.
It was a chilly 50 degree day with a raw wind out of the north. The pregame ceremonies included a tribute to the late Yordano Ventura, which was a pretty classy gesture by the Twins organization. There was supposed to by a F-16 flyover by the Duluth Air National Guard, however, the low cloud deck prevented it from taking place. Bummer.
Unfortunately for Royals fans, there wasn’t much to cheer about during the game except for a Mike Moustakas homerun. The Twins shut down the Royals bats, and took advantage of a really poor outing by the Royals bullpen. Twins took the game, 7-1. In game 2 of the series, the Royals bullpen imploded once again in a 9-1 stomping.
I had a light day at the office on Thursday, so I decided to take a “long lunch” and head down to Target Field for Game 3 of the series. When I pulled into downtown, temps were still in the 40’s, but at least the sun was shining. I bought a ticket in the outfield bleachers, a spot Dyan and I had sat at on several warmer occasions. Once I entered, I noticed the lower level bleachers were shaded by the upper deck. I took a seat, and froze in the chilly breeze. Around game time, I headed to the concession stand to buy a hotdog and in doing so, I walked past the upper deck above my seat. The section was empty. I chatted briefly with the usher about the chilly weather and he suggested I park myself in the middle of his section, which was in direct sunlight, and out of the wind. I did.
It was cool, but the sun sure felt good for a couple of hours. The Royals showed a little more life with a couple of dingers by Perez and Moose, but the result was the same. Royals bullpen gave up a few runs in a 5-3 losing effort. I bailed out of the game in the 7th inning and was back in the office by 2:00.
Later Thursday evening, UMD played Harvard in the Frozen Four. The winner of the game would play for the Championship on Saturday night in Chicago. As a family, we watched the game and all witnessed the Bulldogs take the lead with 26 seconds left in the third period. The Dogs survived a last minute push (included 2 hit pipes) and won the game 2-1. After the game, the texts between Jeremy, Scott and I began flying. Within the hour, we had plans to drive to Chicago the following day and attend the National Championship game on Saturday night. We also briefly discussed tickets, and I suggested we buy them in advance off StubHub, but Scott and Jeremy assured me there would be plenty of tickets to buy from scalpers on game day.
After a full day of work on Friday, Jeremy picked me up at 3:30 and we headed toward Rochester where we met up with Scott. During the drive, we discussed our plan for getting tickets again, and the guys once again assured me that tickets from scalpers was the way to go. We rolled into downtown Chicago around 9:30 and checked into the DoubleTree, a couple of blocks off Michigan Ave. Next stop, the bar.
We hit up Mother Hubbard’s Sports Bar for a couple of pitchers of beer before heading over to Hub 51 – a swanky happy hour bar with an oonce-oonce meat market club in the basement. We had a few beers and then decided to see what the club was all about. Between the marijuana stench and clientele (looked like an audition for a Snoop Dog rap video), we were out of our element. We stayed just long enough to get photobombed by this drunk lady.
At 2AM, we then headed back toward the hotel in search of some late night food. The front desk attendant gave us a couple of nearby recommendations, but even more cool, is that he sent us on our way with warm cookies (DoubleTree gives warm cookies to all guests at check-in) that were so delicious!
The Bellwether restaurant was located a block away at the Embassy Suites. We had wings and cheesy spin dip, which was decent for late night food. The place seemed more like a club than a restaurant. That’s no filter, everything was lit up in purple!
On Saturday morning, we made a quick stop at Dunkin’ Donuts for breakfast and photo op in front of Trump Tower before grabbing a public transportation pass and boarding the train.
Coincidentally, the Twins were in town taking on the White Sox. None of us had ever been to Guaranteed Rate Stadium (formerly known as Comisky Park) so with no plans, we decided to catch a bit of the ball game. The train ride was only 20 minutes and we arrived at the ballpark about an hour early. We bought $7 tickets and strolled into the stadium. It was winter hat giveaway day!
We hung out near the Twins dugout for 30 minutes watching Sano crush ball after ball into the stands. That guy is a beast.
We meandered through the stadium taking in the sightlines before settling on these seats in dead center field. There wasn’t much of a crowd, and the ushers weren’t policing tickets.
While basking under the sun, we began talking about hockey tickets again. Prices were not coming down on StubHub, but rather increasing a bit. Jeremy began searching Craigslist to see what was available [Red Flag #1 - Craigslist]. Braun looks up from his phone and says, “I found a set of 4 tickets in section 102, row 4 going for $125 each [Red Flag #2 – Nearly center ice seats, 4th row, for cheaper than anything else we have seen. Too good to be true?].
Jeremy calls the seller and the guy indicates he wants to keep all four together, so we’d need to buy all 4. Jeremy tells him we are only willing to spend $300 total. We figured we could sell the 4th ticket at the gate and have a little beer money! The guy tells Jeremy he will sell them for that price. He says he is at work, and will text us his address. Three innings went by, and the seller had not texted us, so we assumed the deal was off.
We then decided to leave the stadium so that we could meet up with our college roommate, Ian, at a bar near United Center before the hockey game. On our way out of the stadium, the ticket seller texts Jeremy to meet him at a Starbucks only 5 blocks from the baseball stadium! Such a giant city, yet Jeremy finds the one seller that happens to be within walking distance from us. What are the chances? We were stoked. Jeremy had a Ticket Guy!
On our way to Starbucks, we talked about how we were going to validate whether the tickets were legit. Jeremy was adamant that we all needed to be present to validate the tickets. We had a picture of what the actual tickets looked like, and we agreed if anything seemed off, we’d walk away from the deal. As soon as we got to Starbucks, Scott decided to call Myrriah (awesome timing Rutz!) leaving just two of use to validate the tickets. We waited for about 10 minutes before the most stereotypical gangster-thug walked in the door. He had a bandana covering portions of his dreadlocked head, pants sagging to his knees and more gold teeth than white [Red Flag #3 – Why does a this guy have hockey tickets?]. He pulls out an envelope that held 4 tickets, and a purchase order.
Jeremy started looking at the quality of the tickets while I tried comparing them to the picture we had. Some of the coloring and fonts looked off, but I rationalized these variances by figuring there were likely multiple ticket printers used for all the seats. I noticed the seats were even better than the seats he advertised on Craigslist [Red Flag #4 – why did he have different tickets than were advertised?] The tickets he was presenting were actually center ice, 7th row – virtually the best seats in the stadium (seats are highlighted in yellow on the picture below).
They were high enough that the glass was not an obstruction, but low enough to be right on top of the action. As bad as it sounds, I began thinking to myself, “This guy has no idea how great of seats he is sitting on – he’s probably never even been to a hockey game. If we get these seats, we will be scamming him at this price!” So naive....
I looked at the receipt, and noticed the name on the receipt as Jessie Walker. I asked the seller if he was Jessie, and he said ”Yep, yes I am!” matter of factually. Jeremy asked him point black if the tickets were real, and “Jessie” responded, “Come on guys, you can trust me, you got my word on this!” He was actually much more personable than what he looked like, which probably was the reason we hadn’t walked away from the sale.
We continued looking for imperfections, but in hindsight, I was really just glancing over the seats hoping Jeremy would make the decision to pay so that we could get on our way. I overlooked every red flag and sold myself on the seats being real. I wanted them to be real so bad. I wanted to sit in those seats for the National Championship Game!
Jeremy finally pulled out the $300 and handed it to Jessie. Jessie was out the door so fast – he never even counted the cash. As Jessie walked out, Scott walked in. We had tickets to the game! Scott looked at the tickets, and gave a shrug of approval. As we all stood around skeptically admiring our purchase, a voice from across the Starbucks yelled out, “You guys! You guys! Make sure those tickets are real!” It was the Starbucks manager. She had seen the whole deal going down and apparently was trying to get our attention during the transaction. She said she has seen many ticket scams in her store and we needed to be careful. Unfortunately, that bit of advice came about 20 seconds too late. Jessie was gone. The money was too.
We left Starbucks worried. That skepticism was much more real. We had no idea if they were real, or fake, but that Starbucks manager, and all the red flags were causing me to have a pit in my stomach. As we walked toward the train station, Jessie called Jeremy. Jeremy picked up the phone and immediately Jessie began getting confrontational saying we had shorted him money. Jeremy indicated our deal was $300 for 4 seats but Jessie was recalling a different sale price apparently. He said nothing else and hung up. At this point, I was a little freaked out. This Jessie dude was not a good guy. He is the exact kind of guy you could easily see carrying a gun around for protection, or worse, for getting what he wants. As we made our way to the train station, I kept looking behind us to see if we were being followed. At the train station, there was a police presence, so I sensed we were safe. This is where we all started looking more closely at the tickets. Were they real, or were they fake? Then Jeremy found it.
“Commision” - A misspelled word on the front of the ticket. And when it rains, it pours...
“Incorperated” – A misspelled word on the back of the ticket. There is NO WAY the NCAA is going to have tickets with misspelled words on them. We had been fooled by a guy claiming to be Jessie, the original purchaser of the tickets. Damn. We weren’t happy campers.
We hopped on the train and unfortunately chose a spot next to an older mentally unstable dude who kept telling Jeremy he was high, and going to bite him. Luckily nobody got bit on the 20 minute train ride downtown.
We may have been out $300, but Jeremy’s Ticket Guy became an instant legend. The rest of the trip, we used every opportunity imaginable to razz Jeremy about his Ticket Guy. Fortunately for us, we were able to get some authentic tickets too. After a quick pre-game happy hour with Ian and his wife Shannon at the Ogden Bar, we headed over to the Frozen Four Fanfest at United Center.
We found a real scalper named Biggie, with real tickets. He had three 5th row Club Level seats in section 232 he was selling for $200/ticket. We negotiated down to $125/seat but walked away thinking we still might be able to do better. After 10 minutes of chatting with other scalpers, we realized we weren’t going to do better. We found Biggie and offered him $340 for the 3 tickets, which he reluctantly accepted. The difference between the fake vs real ticket became obvious to us.
And the seats turned out to be awesome! Being that they were Club level, the seats were wider and cushioned (albeit poorly).
The pregame festivities were really well done with a laser and video show displayed on the ice surface.
The Bulldogs came out playing really poor in the first period. Denver is a great team, but our inept performance made them look superior. We couldn’t fore-check, we couldn’t hold the zone, we couldn’t make simple passes, our positioning on the ice was awful and we never seemed to get any kind of rhythm. Despite all that, miraculously, Denver didn’t score in the first period. Their shots seemed to all hit the pipe, side of the net or our goalie, Hunter Miska. It was 0-0 after one period. The second period started just like the first, except Denver found the back of the net twice, just 16 seconds apart. The Bulldogs finally got on the board with a goal shortly after the two Denver scores. That goal seemed to light a fire under the Bulldogs. Unfortunately, while the Dogs were looking great late in the second period, they gave up a third goal to Denver. The score was by Jarid Lukosevicious, his third goal of the game. This hat trick drove Denver fans to toss their hats onto the ice. Although down two goals, UMD continued playing well as they closed out the second period. The Dogs came out firing in the third period. Down two goals, they had a lot of work to do to get back in the game. But they owned Denver. The Dogs put 17 shots on goal compared to 3 shots for Denver. The puck was constantly in the Bulldog zone. It was a complete reversal from the first period of play. The strong play finally paid off when freshman Riley Tufte knocked in a lose puck in front of the net with less than 6 minutes left in the game. That goal set up what was likely one of the most competitive finishes in Frozen Four history. The Dogs peppered the Denver goaltender, Tanner Jaillet, with a slew of shots, but he fended off everyone proving why he had just been named college hockey’s goaltender of the year just a day earlier. The Dogs pulled the goalie with about 2 minutes left on the clock, giving them an extra attacker. But it was not in the cards for the Dogs on this night. Their final couple of pushes were strong, and nearly resulted in a tying goal, however, Jaillet was stronger as he fended off the Bulldogs attacks. When the period came to an end, the Denver players littered the ice with their gloves, sticks and helmets as they piled around one another in their national championship celebration.
We hung around and watched the trophy presentation, which was bittersweet. It was really cool seeing a National Championship and the celebration that ensued – just wish it would have been the Dogs.
After the game, we cabbed it over to Buck Town and had a couple of beers at Northside Bar and Grill and Wicker Park Tavern before closing out the night with some 1AM tacos at Flash Taco. From there, we took the blue line back downtown to the hotel.
It was an amazing week of sports! Three baseball games and a National Championship hockey game rounded out a week I will never forget. But most importantly, I learned a lesson. Never listen to Jeremy when he says, “I have a guy...”

DK200 - 20:59:03
Many people are writing excellent epic race reports on Dirty Kanza 200 this week. I’m going to stick to a simple story… how I would up finishing a 21-hour race with only 57 seconds left. I promise this is my best effort at telling you the truth. It’s important that we start there, because from mile 140 my Dirty Kanza was all about lies.
The first half of DK200 looked like this.
You can jump right in with me after Checkpoint 2 (mile 102) with a couple of quick facts:
Before DK200 my longest gravel ride ever was 102 miles at DK100 last year.
My training plans last winter were shattered by parenting, family illness, and generally being an adult. I managed many late-night hour-long trainer sessions, but I never got the fitness I wanted.
Leaving Checkpoint 2, (Eureka, 102 miles) I was enjoying beautiful conditions, feeling good, on track with an 11.5mph pace and looking forward to an 18-hour finish time.
Feeling good at Checkpoint 2.
Then the hammer fell. From miles 112-122 we slowpokes still on the south end of the route got pummeled by an hour-long thunderstorm. I pulled on my rain jacket and kept riding, even when I couldn’t see beyond 20 feet… what else was there to do? Land Run taught it’s lesson well: don’t stop for rain.
Eventually the rain eased as we turned north, and for the first time I was truly tired. The last hour had been a beating and for the first time I had something really dangerous… an excuse to quit.
The hammer.
Still, I was smiling and still looking forward to a potential 18.5-hour finish time. The groups I had been riding with were scattered to the wind, but a few riders still around when the Jeep club support team started intercepting us to detour around a flash flood.
Trusting another lesson from Land Run I was babying my drivetrain, dodging the post-rain mud bogs and walking as needed. A low water crossing let me to clean things up a bit. Still, even with a clean-looking drivetrain, gravel can be cruel. It was around round mile 140 I heard a horrible thud as my derailleur, without warning, was sucked into my rear wheel. Amazingly, planning for this scenario paid off and I didn’t turn the crank even a single degree as I unclipped and coasted to a stop. I sighed and prepared to convert to single speed, but instead managed to free the spoke that was kissing a jockey wheel and gingerly ease back into riding up with gears. I held my breath but as long as I stayed out of the granny gear the bike was noisy but still rolling.
I could still ride, and if I had to I could still convert to single speed. But now I was armed with excuse #2: the bike is broken.
At the same time, probably because I had opened the door to excuses, two more snuck in. First, the rain had killed my iPhone. I still had a SPOT tracker running and could signal for help if I needed to, but mentally the phone was a big deal. I also realized that my stomach had stopped processing food, and wanted to send back anything I put in. Unpleasant, and potentially a big deal to a diabetic who can literally bonk to death.
So here we are. Mile 140 and I had enough excuses to tell myself the big lie: I could roll into Checkpoint 3 and quit without feeling shame.
Over the next 20 miles I didn’t see any other riders or Jeeps. I did, however, start having to fight my blood sugar down. The Dexcom device that monitors my glucose levels got fouled by mud and failed. I started wondering how safely a diabetic who couldn’t keep food down could survive in the dark without a cellular phone. Excuse #5.
While my mind fed me lies I saw a single red blinking light up the road a mile or more away. Who did that light belong to? I slowly reeled it in to see who else was still riding through this craziness.
Early in the day. Photo credit to Kim Morris @ http://kimmorris.com.
There, at mile 160, was where I met my new best friend Sharon.
When I caught Sharon she was standing at an unmarked dirt road crossing, studying route cards in the dark. It turns out my Wahoo GPS had jumped right back on track after the flood detour, but her Garmin never got back on track. I offered to lead the way the last few miles into Checkpoint 3, and as we got to know each other I realized I was no longer a diabetic alone in the dark.
I was glad for the company, but I saw one of my excuses slipping away. Without the safety issue I could probably go on, but the bike was now shifting itself often. I decided if I could sort out the mechanical issue at the stop I might roll on, but if it was I would probably call it a day.
We rolled in to Checkpoint 3 at 10:12pm, 30 minutes before it would close. Shanon headed off to to find her drop bags, with a promise to regroup soon and figure out what happens next. Once again I was surprised by my wonderful wife. I expected sympathy and concern. That probably would have ended my day. Instead I got a hug and a smile, before she switched into no-nonsense mode. “What do you need? We need to get you moving. The bike has a problem? Just give it to me and take care of yourself… I have a surprise.”
Surprise? It was late, and the Checkpoint was emptying fast. Who could possibly still be around?

Bobby Wintle, of course. Bobby and a pack of the District Bicycles group had hung out after their own last rider had come through, to help and encourage a pair of riders they didn’t know. While I caught my breath, visited the port-o-john, and tried to regroup they swarmed my bike like pirahnas. I know Bobby straightened my bent hanger to get my shifting back in shape, but Bobby wouldn’t stop until it was shifting great and my brakes were adjusted. When Sharon rolled up the jumped on her bike like a Nascar pit crew too.
In just a few minutes metal had been bent, hugs had been given by family and new friends. My excuses were revealed for the lies they were. Then Robin showed me videos my 6-year-old twin boys had sent from home. “We’re pretending bike race, Daddy! Never give up! Never give up!”
What could I say? “Dammit. Come on Sharon. Let’s ride.”
We had lost a lot of time. Still, we had about 4 hours to do about 45 miles. It shouldn’t be a problem. With all the big climbs behind us 11.25 mph would be easy.
Over the next hour Sharon and I got to know each other. I learned about her husband Carlos, her love of riding gravel with him, her pleasure getting to know the Kanza crew at the training camp this year, and how hungry she was to rise to the challenge of DK200. After that hour I I wanted her to finish even more than I wanted myself to.
I could tell she was worried about my blood sugar, and I was worried about her legs that seemed to be running out of steam. I promised I wouldn’t leave her out there, and that we would cross that line together.
But, we had a big problem. Looking at my GPS I could see what she couldn’t: we were going 1-2 mph too slow to beat the clock, and we weren’t getting any faster. My instinct to push the pace by bombing every downhill in the dark was leaving her behind, and the combination of caution and tired legs simply wouldn’t get us there in time.
I could hear in her voice how bad she wanted this. I did too. When her voice cracked I could feel how tired her legs were. Mine weren’t much better. I jumped in front, stayed off the brakes, and promised I’d call out anything wet, loose, or rocky before she crossed it. That helped, but not enough. The computer said we weren’t going to make it. So, I did what anyone would do to encourage their new best friend in the dark.
I lied my ass off.
“13 mph will get us there in time! You’ve done 13 all day!”
She, like me, was right at a 9.6mph average.
“Just another hour! You’ve done this for 19 hours already! One more is nothing!”
We were still nearly 2 hours from the end.
“That’s it! You’re doing 14! 14 will get it you there in time!”
We were turning 16-17mph.
“45 more minutes! You can push it for 45 more minutes!”
One hour, 20 minutes to go.
I did keep repeating one thing that was 100% true: “You are going to do this. We are going to do this together. I’m not crossing that line without you.”
It turns out Sharon is far stronger than she thought she was. I could tell she was hurting in the dark, but she was getting faster. I could hear her hurting. She fell off my wheel, and then clawed right back. But she never, ever stopped.
Just a few miles out of town I realized I had one excuse left. There’s an ugly but real truth about an exercising diabetic: hypoglycemia is a monster. Just walking around my body can run out of glucose and literally bonk to death. I had been riding 19+ hours, and hadn’t been able to keep carbs down for the last 4. Sensors jammed in my side usually give me an early warning system, but the conditions had killed them just like my iPhone, hours ago. I started to get dizzy and just wanted to pull over, shovel sugar in my face, and wait for my body to feel human again.
At this point, however, any stop would end my chance to beat the clock. I could accept coming in a few minutes late, but not unless I had exhausted every option. By now I was soft-pedaling, probably only doing 5mph. I’m sure the spotters were telling the people at the line to start shutting down. I was shouting at Sharon that I was alright and not to stop. I heard my boys’ voices again, singing the song they had sent me earlier. “Never give up, Daddy! Never give up.” I had a few packs of Glukos, water mixed with glucose in a form so simple it hits you near-instantly. That wasn’t for fuel; that was for emergencies. I pounded two, trusting that even if I collapsed it would do it’s job before I passed out, and made myself pick up the pace rolling up the last climb into town and the downhill to the line.

Thanks to whoever captured this and passed it along to my wife.
My vision narrowed to a tunnel. I believed that Sharon had listened I said I was alright and pushed on ahead. I put my head down, trusting that the crowd would be thinned out and those left would stay out of my way, and turned the cranks. I was amazed to see Jim Cummins still at the line, and the clock still running. Our great friends John, Mike, and Kaat helped grab my things and delivered hugs… I’m still grateful they had stayed up after their own long days to see me come in. Of course my partner/crew/best friend Robin was there for me. Just like she had been all day.
I asked and someone assured me Sharon had made it. Then they told me I had made it in with only 43 seconds to spare (the official clock ended up being 51 seconds, but who’s counting). My first thought? I’ll make the midnight club next year.
Then I laid down in the street for a little nap.

P.S. for Sharon. I would have stopped in Madison without you. Your enthusiasm in those last miles before CP3 convinced me I could keep going. Then your drive convinced me I had to keep going. I told you we’d cross that line together in time, and we did. Do you forgive me for lying a bit in those last couple of hours? I told you your legs were lying to you!
Finish
