"What's in the bags?" Jimin asked from the doorway of Seokjin and Jungkook's shared room.Jungkook turned around startled. He had not heard Jimin approach. In his hands, he carried six large paper gift bags overflowing with plush animals, flower crowns, and other assorted items."Oh! These are just gifts Seokjin and I received from ARMY at the fan sign today." Jungkook's startled expression turned into a grin wide enough to crinkle the outer corners of his eyes. Without looking, he placed the bags onto Seokjin's bed."I thought I would bring up Seokjin's gifts too since he was cooking for us," Jungkook said as he dropped heavily onto Jin's bed with a sigh. "I'm hungry."One gift bag at the end of Seokjin's bed tipped to the side when Jungkook sat down. He reached out to grab it, but when he caught the edge, the flimsy paper bag ripped down the side and the contents spilled across the floor."Well, you tried." Jimin shrugged and chuckled as he came over to to help Jungkook pick up the gifts.After picking up several plush bears, paper hearts, and an assortment of letters, Jimin turned to replace the items on the bed.He noticed Jungkook sitting on the floor, unmoving. He sat with his legs folded under him and his head lowered slightly."Jungkook?" Jimin asked. "Is something wrong?""Hmm?" Jungkook lifted his head and turned to look at Jimin. When he did, Jimin felt a sudden jolt of energy shoot from his chest down to his groin.Sticking out of Jungkook's ears were the metal ear pieces of a light pink stethoscope. The diaphragm of the stethoscope was pressed against his chest. Jungkook and Jimin stared at each other for a moment, before Jungkook took out the ear pieces and asked, "Did you say something?""Where did you get that?" Jimin asked. His face felt too hot and the fear of Jungkook noticing only made it worse. It was a stupid question, because Jimin knew where he got the stethoscope. A fan had given it as a gift to Seokjin at the event. It was a throwback to Seokjin's doctor character in the DOPE music video. He saw Jungkook and Seokjin playing around with it during the fan sign and had made a conscious decision to stay away from them until they got bored of it. Watching them play with the stethoscope made him feel unexpectedly aroused. It took every mental trick he knew to push the sudden feelings down at the fan sign. Now that they were back at the dorms, the pang of arousal came back with an unabated rush."Oh you didn't see this? Seokjin received this as a present from a fan!" Jungkook inched closer to Jimin on his knees. He removed the stethoscope from around his neck and placed the ear pieces into Jimin's ears before Jimin had a chance to reply. His eyes widened as Jungkook then took the chest piece of the stethoscope and placed the diaphragm side against the far side of his left breast.The faint thumping of Jungkook's heart entered Jimin's ears, causing his body to tense."I couldn't hear anything at the fan sign though," Jimin heard Jungkook's muffled voice through the ear pieces. "I think it was just too loud at the venue... unless I'm dea-""It's because you're in the wrong spot," Jimin blurted. He tentatively raised his hand and placed it over Jungkook's. He slid the chest piece a little lower and slightly left of center of Jungkook's breastbone.The change of volume and intensity coming from within Jungkook's chest was immediate, making Jimin softly gasp. Jungkook's heart was strong, slow, and rhythmic. There was no mistake that it was the heart of someone physically fit. He listened in silent awe at the difference between Jungkook's slow rhythm and the chaos that was erupting inside his own chest.A short burst of air on Jimin's hair prompted him to look up sharply.Jungkook was looking down at Jimin, chuckling. "Your eyes are huge, Jimin."Jimin blinked several times and tried to compose himself. "You were in the wrong spot," he repeated, not sure how to respond. He removed the ear pieces and inserted them into Jungkook's ears. Picking up the chest piece, Jimin placed it in the same spot he had been listening only moments ago, so he could hear.While Jungkook's eyes were lowered towards Jimin's hand, Jimin took the opportunity to study Jungkook's face. He wondered what he was thinking. Did hearing the sound of a heart beating make him feel the same way he was feeling? He stared at the mole below Jungkook's lip, the small scar on his cheek, the slight furrow of his brow as he concentrated on the sounds coming from inside him. While he felt close to Jungkook, the interaction that was taking place felt much more intimate. It was beginning to become hard to ignore the growing tightness in his pants.Jimin felt something touch his hand and he remembered that he was still pressing the stethoscope against Jungkook's chest. He lowered his gaze to see Jungkook had placed his own hand over Jimin's. Startled, Jimin slipped his hand out from under Jungkook's and felt the flush creep back into his neck and face again as he carefully raised his gaze back to Jungkook's face.Jungkook studied Jimin's face intently when their gazes met. Before Jimin could protest, Jungkook raised the chest piece of the stethoscope and placed it against Jimin's chest.Panic swelled within Jimin causing his heart to flutter wildly in his rib cage. Knowing Jungkook could hear this change in rhythm only intensified the feelings. After a moment, a smile touched Jungkook's lips."It sounds like there's a bird trapped inside your chest," Jungkook commented.Jimin realized he wasn't breathing and took a sharp inhale before exhaling a soft, "Oh?"He wished he could calm down, but the tension was building too quickly. His pants now felt uncomfortable and his mouth felt dry. The more he focused on these sensations, the more intense his arousal felt. He felt vulnerable and exposed, unable to understand why this situation was getting so deep under his skin."Why is your heart fluttering, Jimin?" Jungkook asked looking deep into Jimin's eyes.Jungkook's face was too close. Jimin could feel that his underwear was wet with precum. He felt like his head was floating in a cloud. He could hear his own heart beating in his ears as he desperately tried to form words in response. Before he could collect himself, Jungkook leaned in all the way and planted a gentle kiss on his lips.Jimin stopped breathing. His sole focus was on Jungkook's soft lips pressed against his own. He felt the lightness of his heart skip and the resounding thud that accompanied the next beat. Jungkook pulled his lips away with a soft chuckle, "I thought I might have killed you there for a moment." Jimin looked to see Jungkook still had the stethoscope pressed against his chest and had heard every involuntary sound within.Jungkook lowered the chest piece and removed the stethoscope from his ears. After placing the stethoscope on Seokjin's bed, Jungkook turned to face Jimin again, however his gaze was not on his face. When he noticed that Jungkook's gaze was lingering, Jimin looked down as well. A small wet spot had formed where his precum had soaked through his pants and his penis was now fully erect creating an obvious shape through the fabric.From downstairs, Seokjin called up that dinner was ready.Without even looking in the direction of the voice, Jungkook leaned in so his mouth was inches away from Jimin's ear."Would you like to sort this out before or after we eat?"
