It was so soft, and so sweet..
Taehyung slowly moved his hands and cupped the shorter boys face, as he opened his eyes and slowly let go from the kiss. All he could see was Jimin's beautiful lips, inches from his, and he couldn't help but to peck them again

Jimin didn't move at all.
A couple minutes ago his heart was about to burst out of his chest. Was he doing the right thing? What if Tae wasn't really interested?

But now, he had just received a second kiss, and he just melted into the moment.
His heart kept beating incredibly fast, but Taehyung's touch made him feel at ease at the same time

"Jiminie.." Tae said with a raspy voice, it was almost as if talking had become hard for him
"Do you need help with anything else?"

"Uh.. uh... no, i'm okay" Jimin felt nervous for a second, until he saw Taehyung smile at him
"Just go sit"

...

"So, are you excited about tomorrow?" Taehyung asked him as they ate

"Yeah, I hope I don't screw it up"
Jimin looked nervous about it, he really needed this

"Hey" Tae put his hand over Jimin's, and he stopped thinking about was on his mind at that moment
"You'll do great"

Jimin could feel his eyes about to tear up. He was happy, he felt safe.
"Thank you" he smiled at Tae's words and this one felt his heart skip a beat

"J-Jiminie.." He said staring into his eyes, still holding his hand "I know you've been through a lot but.." he moved a bit closer "You know i'm here for you, don't you? I wont ever leave you alone.."

Jimin felt his heart clench at those words..
He had heard them before. Although he didn't care about that person anymore, those were painful memories
And he couldn't hold it in anymore. He remembered how alone and scared he felt.. how he didn't want to tell anyone about it, and how with just looking into his eyes Taehyung had realized
Tears started running down his cheeks and Taehyung pulled him into a hug

"Shh.. it's okay" he whispered as he tightened his arms around the shorter boy's body
"It'll be okay, I promise"

Jimin didn't make a sound, he didn't sob.. but Tae could feel the tears make his shirt wet. They just kept falling, so he kept him like that until they stopped

"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to upset you" He said as Jimin slowly let go

"I'm not upset.. i'm happy" He look at Tae's eyes "i am so happy.."

Taehyung smiled as he dried the tears from his Jiminie's eyes..
Yes, he already felt like his. And he just wanted to put him inside a bubble and protect him from the outside world.

He kissed his forehead
"I'm glad then.."

.....

It was early morning. Jimin took the bus and arrived to his new job

"You'll be working as a salesman, so your paycheck depends pretty much on commission"

"Okay.." Jimin wasn't sure about this, he knew working based on commission only meant some checks were going to inevitably be less good than others. But he wasn't in the position to choose

"For today I want you to stick closer to the other salespeople. You need to learn their tricks so you'll do good" the manager added

"Of course"

Jimin was overall a shy person, so it was really hard for him to even walk up to someone and greet them. He just wished they'd go away without noticing him, but that was something he couldn't afford.

"Good afternoon.." he greeted the customers with a smile "is there something specific you're looking for?"

"We are just browsing, thank you" The couple kept staring into a bedroom set they were showing off. The wife seemed to adore it but the man seemed concerned about the price

"You know, that is a beautiful bedroom set you're looking at. You have a really good taste" he looked at the price tag
"And actually, this much more expensive. But we are having a sale today"

"Yeah but is kind of expensive anyways" the husband said looking at his wife, who looked kind of disappointed

"It's a shame, you guys seem to reslly like it..
Let me ask you something, do you have any kids?" Jimin asked them, he didn't even know where this confidence was coming from

"Yeah, two" the woman said

"I see. Then this is the perfect bed for you. It's completely made of wood, really strong. I'm guessing your kids like to jump on your bed and that's why you need a new one, right?"

"How did you know?" the woman laughed

"That's the way kids are. By the way I bet they're lovely kids" Jimin sweetly smiled to them

"Aw, yes they are" she looked at her husband "I really like this set though"

The husband looked reluctant so he decided to throw in a little help

"You guys seem like wonderful people, so why don't we do this? I'm gonna give you my employee discount so you can get out of here today with the bedroom set you like so much"

"No way? Really?!" she was so excited and looked at her husband, pulling his arm "Honey please??"

He had been advised a while before by a fellow co worker they were allowed to lower some prices by a five percent, so he thought he'd give that a good use

"Okay.. let's do it" the husband looked at Jimin and nodded

"Perfect. Let me go get the papers and we'll set your order right away!" he turned and walked to his desk

"You're a natural" one of the other salesmen patted his shoulder

"Thank you" he grinned

He was doing good for his first day. He closed his first sale and didn't even know how he did it. As soon as the couple left he felt his shyness coming back, but he knew.. it'd get easier to handle it.

The only thing worrying him was..
he hadn't received a text from Taehyung during the entire day..
