Beneath the surface [BTS JIMIN FF]

7

Ever since the team dinner we had, Mr. Pang avoided even looking at me. I guess he remembers something, not that I get how, considering he was more dead than alive, but today, he spoke to me.

I was just coming out of the toilet and almost ran into him.

'Oh, Mr. Pang. I'm sorry.' I bow my head

'It's more than okay.' He smiled weirdly. 'I should be apologizing anyway. Actually, do you mind coming with me for a moment?'

'Umm, sure?' I mumbled and started following him after he walked towards his office

'I'm sorry.' He started bowing deeply to me as soon as the office doors closed. 'I have acted like an absolute idiot. I can't even remember everything properly, but I remember some things, and I was a buge burden.'

'It's alright, Mr. Pang. It's not that big of a deal, really.' I smile, trying to keep it as little awkward as possible

'I told you to call me Hoolin.' He smiles back. 'And it is. I am not supposed to act that way. That was outrageous. I figured that you even sent me home on a taxi. I don't remember getting to it at all.' He was actually blushing a little, probably feeling embarrassed

'Don't worry, Mr. P- Hoolin.' I corrected myself when he gave me another look when I tried to say Mr. Pang. 'Water under the bridge.'

'Not in the slightest. I would like to apologise to you. Properly. Would you mind joining me for dinner one day? Purely so I can apologise. As friends, not a boss and a worker.'

That... is a bit...
'That is not needed, Hoolin. Truly. I already forgot about it anyway.'

'Please. One dinner. Or lunch. Anytime you choose.'

*knock knock knock*
'Oh, sorry about disturbing, Mr.Pang.' the receptionist barged in, thank god. 'He's waiting for you.'

'Ah, yes. I will be right with him. Thank you.'

She bowed and left, closing the door behind her. Whoever came for him, thank you, too.

'I'm just gonna go back to work then. Thank you.' I bowed and kind of ran before he could ask another thing. A dinner with my boss? I don't think so. And who apologizes like that?

I hoped I had escaped, but I guess not. Only 15 minutes have passed before Hoolin came back, this time to our work space.

'Miss Min, would you mind joining me in the office, please?'

Seriously?!

I got up reluctantly, following after him.

'Um, Mr. Pang, I-'

'No, no, this is work.' He chuckled. 'Please.' He opened his office doors letting me in, and then I had a heart attack

That jet black hair, those familiar dark eyes, plump lips... and a full on suit. A black suit, tailored perfectly for his body. It hugs him in every right place.

Am I seeing things?

'This is Jimin Park.'

'Nice to meet you, miss Min.' Jimin smiles at me, offering me his hand to shake

What. The. Fuck.

'Um- nice- nice to meet you, too?' I am lost completely

He held my hand gently, not letting go of it and only looking into my eyes, keeping up that smile. The thing that shocks me the most is his smile.
Those full lips that are usually in a prefect, straight line, are now curved up in the corners, but the smile isn't reaching his eyes.
