1- The first attempt.

Less than a week later, Jimin and Jungkook began putting their first plan into action. They were allowed to reveal their relationship, they just needed to figure out how. So they were going to show, not tell. They had decided to not hold back at all during their upcoming concert. To show how they really were with each other.

They didn't want to straight up say they were dating at first. So they were just going to imply heavily. Maybe to test the waters, maybe because they wanted an excuse to flirt obnoxiously onstage.

Currently, the two boys were sitting in the back of a sleek, black van, heading to said performance. They were clutching each other tightly, hearts beating at 100 miles per hour with nerves.

"We're really doing this" Jimin said astoundedly.

"Yep. We really are." Jungkook replied, pecking him on the nose and stroking his hair.

The van pulled to a stop and the driver rolled down the tinted glass that had been separating the front seats from the back seats. He grinned cheerily

"Here you are, Good luck guys!"

The boys smiled back hopping out of the car after thanking him. They hugged each other tightly in a desperate attempt to calm each other down, and walked into the stadium.

BTS had performed in some pretty huge venues before, and this one definitely wasn't the biggest, but it always felt amazing walking into a huge theater or stadium. Seeing the stage and realising that you had really made it. That soon enough every single seat would be filled for you, for your hard work.

It was an incredible feeling, and Jungkook and Jimin would never get used to it. The same went for the rest of the members. But they never wanted to get used to it either.

Hand in hand, Jimin and Jungkook headed backstage to meet up with the other members again. They had about 4 hours to prepare and practice for the concert before it began. Which was perfect, because every one of them needed all the time they could get to calm down their nerves.

As soon as the couple arrived backstage and joined the others, Taehyung, Jin, and Hobi came running towards them, latching onto their arms, and bombarding them with questions as if Jimin and Jungkook were the popular girls in a teen drama.

"I got your text. You're really doing it?" Tae stared at the pair in awe, still latched onto Jimin's arm (soulmate duties).

"Well, sort of. We're basically gonna flirt like crazy, drop major hints and see how it goes. Still scary though." Jungkook replied.

Hobi nodded at them "I don't know whether to be happy or scared for you. I can't believe PD-nim let you do this!"

Jimin giggled and nuzzled into his boyfriend's neck.

"Me either. And I can't wait."

Neon, flashing lights. Screaming crowds shouting out fanchants. Twinkling army bombs creating a galaxy in the stadium's stands. The rush of adrenaline that a concert brought upon Jimin was a second nature to the him, but tonight would be a little different. Tonight had the potential to change his life.

He was in the middle of performing Dynamite for what seemed like the billionth time, but even the overdone choreo wasn't lowering his spirits. He was filled with an unexplainable energy.

After this song, there would be an intermission where the members could read out the ARMYs' questions and basically just talk to and hype up the crowd. Namjoon had prepared a speech for the crowd along with the one that he would say after the final song. During this intermission, Jimin was going to try his absolute hardest to charm Jungkook's pants off (not literally, they had time for that later. Jimin would love to get Jungkook's pants off onstage, but he didn't think that was really the "appropriate behaviour" Namjoon had lectured him about when he told him about the relationship reveal).

"So imma light it up like dynamite, whoa oh oh!" Taehyung delivered the final line of the song, and the crowd erupted into cheers and all the members kicked out the choreo in perfect synchronization

The boys linked arms and bowed, Jimin of course going to link arms with Jungkook. Sweat was dripping down the man's neck, making his skin glow and shine. If this was the type of Jungkook Jimin had to flirt with, then it was going to be an easy night.

"Thank you so much army!" Namjoon shouted. On queue, the other members began shouting out different variations of thank you, I love you, and I purple you. The atmosphere was full of tension. But it was the good kind. The tension of excitement, the sort of feeling you get when you know something good is about to happen.

Yoongi piped up this time, grinning his rarely spotted gummy smile at the crowds who had somehow started a (admittedly well done) Mexican wave with their glowing army bombs.

"Give us a minute to catch our breath, and then we'll get straight into the questions." he shouted into the microphone, trying his best to let his heavy breathing die down. The group passed around waterbottles, gulping desperately from them. Jimin was sure to use Jungkook's one, hoping that the fans would pick up on the indirect kiss (they didn't).

While the other members were catching their breath, Jimin took the opportunity to start with the flirting right away. He signaled at Jungkook, before running towards him and taking a flying leap into his arms, so that now Jungkook was carrying him bridal style. Once he was sure Jungkook wasn't going to drop him, Jimin nuzzled into his neck.

The crowd went wild, and Jimin felt his heart warm and fill with happiness.

"Look how strong my Jungkookie is, ARMY!" he tried to hype up the crowd more than they were already hyped up, which was a lot to say the least.

Jungkook grinned and pulled him closer to his chest, winking at the fans.

He could sense a disgruntled Kim Namjoon in the distance, most likely pulling a face of disappointment. He could also sense the almost overpowering presence of a fangirling Jung Hoseok, who was most likely squealing internally and smiling brightly enough to cause global warming.

The disgruntled Kim was the first to speak "Ok then.. It looks like most of us have caught our breath, so I guess we should start on the questions now?"

A crew member nodded and brought over 7 shoebox sized boxes full of questions. He handed one to each member. A few other crew members brought chairs onstage for the members to sit on. Jimin hopped out of Jungkook's arms and dashed to grab a seat next to him, and the others followed suit.

"Thanks guys! This is perfect." Namjoon said to the crew members. "Ok, shall we?"

The crowd roared in response and Namjoon nodded, smiling.

The maknae took the reins next, explaining how the Q&A would basically work, with each member taking turns to read out a question randomly picked out of their box. They would answer 7 questions each since it was a pretty long segment, maybe a few more if the crowd was feeling it.

Jimin knew that if there was any time to push "jikook", it was now. After the fans' reactions to what he did earlier, he was very excited to see how they would react to what he had in store for them. He knew that the types of questions in his box were perfect opportunities to show that his flirting wasn't just a joke. There was only so far flirting could go, right??

Jungkook was the first to pull out a question, and surprise, surprise, it was the classic "rate the members in order from best looking to worst looking."

Jungkook usually hated this question, but this time it was working in his favour.

"Ok, the question is "rate the members in order from best to worst looking", I think all the members are good looking, but I'll try my best to order them correctly." He smiled his bunny smile, making the crowd coo at him.

"So in first place is Jiminie, because, duh, and then everyone else ties for second place."

The crowd screamed as Jimin blushed and looked down into his lap. Jungkook smiled softly at him.

"Sorry guys, but that's just the truth. Jimin-ssi always comes first. I still love my other hyungs though!" he chuckled, gesturing to the other members.

Jin rolled his eyes. "Well, if it was up to me, I would 100% be putting my worldwide handsome face first, but I guess you can have opinions. Anyways, it's my turn. The question is, "what would you do if you woke up one day and you weren't handsome anymore"... Well, I would probably eat a really delicious last meal, and then flush myself down the toilet with whatever's in there that Tae forgot to flush before. A life without my handsome charms wouldn't be a life worth living."

The group went around the circle, answering questions one by one, eliciting laughs, tears, and screams from their fans. Finally, they got to Jimin.

He reached into the box slowly, building tension, before gracefully and dramatically pulling out a sticky note. "The question is, drumroll please..."

The ARMYs' began thumping their hands on the seat rests of their chairs and stomping their feet.

"Ok STOP! The question is, "What is the meanest thing one of the members has done to you recently. PS, I love you Jimin-hyung". I love you too! And the meanest thing that has been done to me would have to be... Well the other day Kook-ah came to our room saying that he had brought me my favourite steak. He brought in the food and we started eating together. The steak looked mouthwatering, and I took a giant bite. But you know what this brat had done?" Jimin looked over at Jungkook with fake anger on his face.

"He sprinkled extra spicy chili powder on my steak! It was fine at first, but then my mouth started going numb, I thought it was on fire! And Kookie was just sitting there, laughing his head off at my pain. My eyes were tearing up and everything."

Jimin sighed. "He's the meanest. I hate him"

Jungkook saw his opportunity, and took it.

"Huh. That's not what you were saying when you came to my room last night, Jimin-ah."

And then the stadium went silent.

But only for a moment, because the next second, the entire venue as filled with ear-piercing screams. Jimin could hear a girl who was right out the back scream out "HOLY FUCK", and he just knew that whoever was sitting next to her would be deafened for life.

Somehow, Namjoon managed to get everyone to quiet down, albeit for the occasional "JIKOOK IS REAL" that sent the crowds into shambles. Jungkook was forced to sit there, smirking at his handiwork for next 20 minutes while all the others finished their questions. He occasionally looked at Jimin, who spent the entire time blushing beet red and staring at his feet.

He couldn't wait to see twitter tomorrow.

To everyone's surprise, the moment didn't actually blow up as much as they thought it would. While the jikookers clutched onto it for dear life, the taekookers brushed it off as being "a friendly joke" or a "misunderstanding", and there ended up being no scandals or headlines.

To the others, it meant they should give it up, but to Jimin and Jungkook, it just meant that they would have to try again. And try harder next time.

So try harder they would.
