Chapter 11

CHAEYOUNG

It's been days since Jimin and I talked. He's been constantly avoiding me and I'm worried. I would go to their house with the girls but he'd always make up an excuse and stays in his room or go out. He's not even replying to my texts.

"Chaeng, you did leave him hanging in the amusement park," Lisa said. I actually told her everything. About our relationship and why I hid it. She was angry at first but when I told her that Chim was avoiding me, she reconsidered. "That was a d-ck move."

"Ya! Language!" Jungkook scolded his girl. And yes, they're now a package deal. He turned to me. "Jimin hyung tends to be like this when he's hurt, Rosé. He shuts himself off and begins to be distant. Did you try talking to him?"

I nodded. "I would wait for him after his classes but he still avoids me. I tried to talk to him whenever we come over too."

"Aish. That hyung, jinja. He's like a baby."

"What should I do? I... I don't want to lose him, Lis. You know how much I love him."

Lisa sighed and looked at Jungkook. The guy nodded.

"I have an idea but I need you to be brave," she started. My heart started to pound. "Make him feel that you are his girlfriend. His birthday is tomorrow so you can use this chance to show him you really care."

"But that also means..."

Lisa nodded. "You have to come clean about your relationship to our friends. At least with us, you don't need to hide anything. Trust us that we won't rat you out to anyone."

I trust all of them, really. But I know my father.

But I don't want to lose Jimin.

"Okay. What should I do?"

Lisa's grin grew wide. "Kookie, you're on Jimin watch. Chaeng, you come with me."

I followed her orders since I know Lisa comes up with the greatest ideas when it comes to surprises. She threw this surprise pajama party for Jungkook last month and it was amazing. I still have no idea how she managed to convince Yoongi oppa to wear a onesie. He looked super cute tho.

So Lisa and I went to the mall. We started off by getting him a gift. I really don't know what to get him but I guess a new pair of shoes is okay, right?

"Heol. They have a new design. Look!" Lisa pointed at a Puma store. "You can buy one for you and one for him. Couple shoes!"

I looked at the display and smiled. He liked these type of shoes. Athletic looking but at the same time sleek and elegant looking.

We entered the place and an attendant immediately asked us what we would like.

"The BTS x PUMA Court Star please," I said. "Two pairs please."

I told him our sizes which thankfully still has ones in stock. The attendant said it was sold out and just got reshipped again this afternoon. And it had just been two days since the release.

"I guess those shoes are meant for you guys," Lisa commented.

"I guess so."

After buying Jimin's present, we went on to buy some fairy lights, a variety of blankets and a variety of party stuff.

"We can set this up in their backyard," Lisa said as she was typing on her phone. "I just texted Kookie and he said Jimin's inside just inside their dorm. I told him to distract your boyfriend and take him somewhere for the time being while we set up the place."

"Okay. So we're gonna order some food too?"

"I already asked Jisoo and Jin to buy some at the grocery store. Hobi and Yoongi oppa is actually setting up the grill in the backyard as we speak."

"Wow. How long have you planned this?"

"An hour ago, duh," she answered then clung on to my arm. "Seriously, Chaengie. You're the creative one here. How come you haven't had anything planned for you boyfriends' birthday?"

I blushed crimson. Honestly, I already have something planned for Jimin's birthday even before we went to the amusement park. I even went so far as to booking a hotel room for the both of us.

"Well... I uh..."

"Oh my goodness! You do have a plan!" She exclaimed. "Scratch that. Did. You did have a plan. Oh s**t. You don't mean... your..."

I slowly nodded, still blushing. Lisa gasped. Now I regret telling her.

"You naughty little beyotch!" She wa grinning like an i***t. "You booked a hotel room, didn't you? So that's why you asked me to come with you when you bought that lingerie set..."

Okay her face was literally on fire. I know that Jimin's well... umm... experienced and he had needs. So... yeah. I'm giving him my virginity as a present.

"But I can't do that anymore since he's not even talking to me..." Lisa grew silent. "Lis?"

"Change of plans."

She took her phone out and tapped on it like there's no tomorrow.

"What are you planning again, Lalisa?"

"You say he's mad at you, right?" I nodded. "And he wouldn't talk to you?"

Again, I nodded. Lisa grinned widely and pulled me to a cab.

"What hotel was it again?"

"Hyatt..."

"Hyatt hotel, ajusshi. Ppali. It's an emergency."

The cab driver complied and we arrived at the hotel in no time. I see Jennie waving at the lobby. She was carrying a paper bag.

"I added the silk robe. To add excitement."

Clueless, I looked over to Lisa.

"Ya! Jennie! Lisa! Rosé!"

We all turned towards the main entrance. It was Taehyung with roses on his hand. A lot of it.

"Roses, check!"

"Ya!" Namjoon was running towards us also with a paper bag in his hand. "The candles you said. And some aroma oils."

"Great! Now, Rosie, would you be a doll and lead take us to the suite? We have a lot to prepare..." Jennie said as she pushed me towards the reception desk. I glared at Lisa.

"You told them?!"

"Well, duh? How else are we gonna make this night romantic as f--k?"

All of them were grinning like kids as we went up the hotel room and prepared the place.

After a couple of minutes, Lisa signaled Taehyung. He nodded and took his phone out.

"Kookie. Did you hit him hard? It's fine. He'll wake up sooner or later. You guys can bring him up now."
