Summary
Jungkook is no good with distractions. Admittedly, he’s juvenile in that way. Curious and impulsive, chasing after any new shiny thing, opportunity for a thrill, or interesting person. It’s risky sometimes, living with the propensity to do just about anything in an effort to feel. But, he’s long since reconciled with this part of himself— what some of his teachers had called his overactive id, where his poor attention span, over tendency to develop attachments, and competitive streak lie in wait.
All this to say that there's a reason why he finds himself glancing at the man on the treadmill next to him every few seconds.
Or, the one where Jungkook, who is "happily taken and totally straight," meets Jimin at the gym and gets a slightly attached and engages in a little "bromance."

Summary
And then, beneath the noise, a voice cut in for the first time. Low. Calm. Velvet wrapped over steel wire.
“…nice save.”
Two words.
They didn’t come with a laugh or a pat. They came like a measured verdict from someone who didn’t speak unless he meant to. The tone sat perfectly in Jimin’s ears—no static, no rush—just even warmth shaped into consonants, the kind of baritone that lands in your chest before your head can name it.
Jimin’s brain silenced like a headshot.
Or:
Jimin never thought a voice could ruin him. But JK’s voice isn’t just any voice—it’s low, steady, and alpha through and through, slipping under Jimin’s skin until every late-night call feels like a confession.

Summary
When he accepted the job to help a Texan rodeo with marketing, Park Jimin didn't plan to catch the eye of a good-looking, smooth-talking, bull-riding cowboy.
He didn't expect to like Jeon Jeongguk so much, either.
