Work Text:

Yoongi loved his part-time job in the campus library, cause it was quiet and most of the people there left him alone. Which gave him plenty of time to stare at the pretty boy who came in every day at the same time. He knew his name was Jimin, always wearing a beanie on his head and a smile that could rival the sun.

They spoke mostly when Jimin needed help finding a book, or to check something out. Jimin was always bright and happy for Yoongi; it was always the best part of his day. Yoongi looked at the clock and smiled knowing Jimin would be coming in soon. Truthfully he wanted to ask the boy out but always ran scared.

Yoongi got a little busy as a sudden rush to check out happened. He sighed looking at the clock realizing he missed Jimin coming in, he was about to walk out from behind the desk when a flustered Jimin came huffing in low talking into his phone. “Tae, my professor is just unbelievable. How can he say the initial draft was so perfect then give me so many marks off and tell me to redo the second.”

Yoongi watched as Jimin plopped down at a table taking things out of his bag. “No, I am at the library for my study time, I didn’t even get my coffee today. I am so tired, yeah, okay Tae. Thanks, I will talk to you later, bye.”

Yoongi felt his heart pang as Jimin put his hands in his face taking a deep sigh. He hated seeing him do anything but smile, Jimin sits up and opens his laptop and that's when Yoongi gets an idea. He starts typing furiously on his phone grinning to himself as he does.

*-*-*-*-*

This was when Yoongi was going to talk to Jimin. He clutched a coffee in his hand as he walked up to the table. Jimin looked up as he approached, smiling softly. “Oh hey Yoongi-ssi, is everything okay?”

Yoongi smiled with a nod. “I just got you a coffee, is all here you go.”

Yoongi held out the coffee, Jimin was staring at him with wide eyes. “Oh, thank you?”

Yoongi watched as Jimin took the coffee, eyeing it, before taking a sip and letting out a pleased sigh. Then a very confused look crossed his face. “Yoongi is this?”

Yoongi flushed. “An iced coffee with french vanilla, cream and sugar. Overly sweet, but its just like you.”

Jimin turned bright red. “I- how, thank you. But how did you know my coffee order?”

Yoongi chuckles and points to the sticker on Jimins lap top. Jimin closes his laptop then bursts into a fit of giggles. There on his laptop was a pink and orange sticker that said Medium Iced Coffee with French Vanilla Swirl, Cream and Sugar

Jimin just rewarded him with a beaming smile. “Thank you Yoongi, for the coffee and the giggle. I really needed it.”

Yoongi pulled out a chair sitting across from Jimin. “You’re welcome, and I am glad. I didn’t like seeing you looking so sad.”

Jimin blushed looking down. “Do you notice me that much?”

Yoongi was blushing this time rubbing the back of his neck. “Yeah I, uh , notice you a lot actually. You're so very pretty and hard to miss.”

Jimin giggled again. “Yoongi-ssi, am I correct in this? Are you flirting with me?”

Yoongi looked up, meeting Jimins eyes and gave a nod. “I am Jimin, I think you are very pretty and would love to take you on a date.”

Jimin sucked in a breath. “Well before I answer, there is something you need to know first.”

Yoongi tilted his head looking at Jimin. “What is it?”

Jimin took a deep breath pulling his beanie off his head and slowly two little cat ears popped out. Yoongi's mouth fell open, Jimin was a hybrid, a sweet beautiful cat hybrid. All he could do was stare, cause if Jimin couldn’t get any more beautiful suddenly he did in Yoongi's eyes. Jimin squirmed around putting his beanie back on. “Well okay then, yeah.”

Yoongi finally shook his head coming back to himself. “You are seriously so stunning.”

Jimins head shot up. “What?”

Yoongi just smiled. “I didn’t think you could get more beautiful than what you already are. Jimin, you are the most beautiful man I have ever seen.”

Jimin was staring at him in shock. “Even if I am a hybrid?”

Yoongi shook his head. “Jimin, you are just beautiful, period. Your cute little ears just make me want to hug and squish your adorable cheeks even more.”

Jimins eyes began getting glassy and Yoongi wanted to panic but Jimin launched himself at him, hugging him from across the table. “Thank you, thank you Yoongi.”

Yoongi just hugged him back with a chuckle. “For what?”

 

Jimin sat himself back down. “I always worried I wouldn’t have anyone like me because of this, and I honestly come here because of you.”

Yoongi looked at Jimin surprised. “Cause of me?”

Jimin nodded. “I always thought you were so cute Yoongi-ssi.”

Yoongi was blushing now and stammering. “Hyung, please call me hyung Jiminie.”

Jimin was just grinning big. “Okay Hyung.”

Yoongi sighed looking at the circulation desk. “I have to get back to work, but can we exchange numbers?”

Jimin nodded, sliding his phone to Yoongi, Yoongi just grinned, putting his phone number in then texting himself. “There we go. I will text you and we can set up a date.”

Jimin took his phone back clutching it to his chest with a smile. “Okay Yoongi-Hyung. I look forward to it.”

Yoongi got up and walked away, stopping a few feet away. “Oh and Jiminie, you are beautiful with and without the beanie. I do hope you’d feel comfortable enough not to wear it on our date.”

Jimin grinned even bigger with a nod, as Yoongi went back to work letting out a big breath. He actually talked to Jimin and got a date. He was more surprised Jimin was also crushing on him than the fact Jimin was an absolutely adorable hybrid.

*-*-*-*-*

Yoongi stood nervously outside the restaurant Jimin and he agreed to meet at. He had a small flower bouquet in his hands. What if Jimin changed his mind and didn’t come, he felt Jimin was far too pretty for him. It was still a few minutes till they agreed upon time but Yoongi was still stressed.

That's when he turned to look up the street to see Jimin walking his way, their eyes met and Jimins smile bloomed on his face. Yoongi just stared at his beauty, he didn’t have his beanie on the wind softly blowing his hair. Yoongi also noticed his tail, a super fluffy one swaying behind him. Jimin stopped in front of him. “Hi Hyung.”

Yoongi just held out the flowers while still staring. “Fuck, Jiminie you are so damn beautiful why are you here with me.”
Jimin giggled while taking the flowers. “Stop that Hyung, like you are gorgeous yourself!”

Yoongi shook his head. “Even the most beautiful landscape in the world pales in comparison to you.”

Jimin just smiled brightly. “Oh Hyung, you are the sappiest aren’t you?”

Yoongi nodded his head. “For you absolutely.”

Yoongi held out his hand for Jimin to be able to lead him into the restaurant. Jimins hand felt so small in his and he just had this urge to keep Jimin close and protect him with everything that he could.

The date was a simple one, hot pot and BBQ. Yoongi loved to see Jimin eat happily as he cooked up the meat for them. Being able to take care of Jimin made his heart soar. He realized this was more than a simple crush and he was going to be quickly head over heels in love with Jimin.

He just smiled as Jimin told a story about him and Tae getting into trouble and getting themselves kicked out of an art museum because Tae pretended to pick a statue's nose. Yoongi was completely enamored, Yoongi had not realized he was lost in staring at Jimin til he giggled and yelled. “Hyung are you listening or staring?”

Yoongi laughed, shaking his head. “Sorry Jiminie, I am just still in awe that you are here with me. I know this is our first date but Jimin I like you oh so much.”

Jimin giggles again happily. “Oh Hyung, I like you so much too.”

Yoongi shook his head. “No Jiminie, you do not understand. I am absolutely enamored by you. The way you speak, the way you smile and your eyes scrunch up. Your happy little purs that I do not think you even realize you do.”

Jimin just looked at him. Yoongi took a deep breath, continuing. “I can see myself quickly falling for you, and being swept up in your beautiful orbit and I don’t even wanna fight it. I just wanna call you mine.”

Jimin put his hand over his mouth. “Hyung…”

Yoongi looks down. “If this is too much I am so sorry I just word vomit, and I….”

Before he could say more Jimin was up and around the table slipping into the booth next to him. Yoongi just stares at Jimin, cups his face and kisses him. Yoongi is utterly shocked before he wraps an arm around Jimins waist pulling him closer and deepening the kiss. Kissing Jimin is even better than his wildest fantasies. Yoongi feels like this is his first time taking a breath in his life as Jimin seems to pump his life force into him with a simple brush of their lips.

Jimin purrs happily into the kiss and it just makes Yoongi hold on tighter to him. Even after breaking the kiss their foreheads pressed together Yoongi just smiles. “Are you real? Jimin, does this mean what I hope it means?”

Jimin nods, pulling back just enough to look Yoongi in the eyes. “Yes Yoongi, it means I want that too. I want to try us, can we please?”

 

Yoongi nods, pulling himself back and slightly away from Jimin to take his hands and hold onto him. “Okay, okay let me do this properly, you deserve that.”

Jimin just giggled, shaking his head. “Oh my silly hyung.”

Yoongi just chuckled. “Park Jimin, the cutest and sweetest man I have ever seen in my life. Will you be my boyfriend?”

Jimin bunches up, his shoulders flushed and giggling like mad. “Hyung, yes very much it's a yes.”

Yoongi did a happy dance in his seat before pulling Jimin in for another kiss. The kiss started soft and gentle with little pecks before Yoongi's tongue begged entrance, which Jimin easily gave. The small whines Jimin made only made Yoongi deepen the kiss, their tongues softly dancing against each other.

Jimin purred a hand clinging onto Yoongi's shirt pressed into him. Yoongi just held him tighter, feeling his world clicking into place, like all that was ever missing from his life was the sweet boy currently nestled in his arms. When they broke that kiss and Jimin laid his head on Yoongi's chest giggling, all Yoongi could do was sigh happily. “This is all I ever wanted, Jiminie, you have made me so very happy tonight.”

Jimin just giggled nuzzling closer. “Hyung, you have made me so very happy. All that time spent in the library to steal glances at you paid off.”

Yoongi just chuckled. “Well I hope you did get work and studying done in between.”

Jimin giggled with a nod. “Oh yes, thanks to you my grades are doing quite well.”

Yoongi just smiled. “Well I hope you continue to come, but now I may actually come and distract you but I will do my best to be good while you study.”

Jimin just giggled and smiled. “I will always welcome the distraction that is you.”

*-*-*-*-*

Yoongi smiled as Jimin entered the library and instead of him walking straight to his usual table he went to the counter. “Hey Hyung, how’s your afternoon going?”

Yoongi just smiled leaning over the counter to give Jimin a kiss. “Better now that you are here.”

Jimin just shook his head, swatting at him. Yoongi leaned over, picking up a coffee and holding it out to Jimin. They had been dating for a few weeks, but everytime Jimin came to the library Yoongi was waiting, with a medium iced coffee, french vanilla swirl, with cream and sugar in hand. Jimin just took it smiling. “Thank you my lovely hyung.”

Yoongi just smiled. “Anything for you my Jiminie.”
