Chapter 5
The homework was easy peasy. He doesn't need google to even finish his part.
"So you're finally taking this seriously rather than skipping huh." Hoseok laughs at his behavior.
"You know I'm a busy guy."
"Busy fucking chicks in the board daylight? Because that seems like you." He rolls his eyes in the assumption everyone is making.
"What— no! You know the only ass I'm into is Tae. Anyone else is off limits."
"Yea. Say that to the rumors." The rumors really have been going wilder. "So how was your date? I heard about the monster. Thank god Spiderman appeared right?"
"Yea.. it didn't go as well as I thought. The monster ruined everything. We didn't even get to see the ending." He sulks
"But did you hold hands?"
"Hell yeah! But it should've been longer you know!!"
Hoseok laughs out loud to his silliness. "Is there gonna be next time?"
Jungkook nods. There is. This time, he hopes nothing will come between them. "Enough about me. Is your part finished?"
"Thought you wouldn't ask! Come and help this dumbass solve shit." It takes Jungkook little to no time to figure out what needs to be done. All Hoseok needs to do is put it in computer words before he prints it out.
But as he leaves to go back after, he is encountered by a certain someone. That certain someone didn't seem very happy.
Jungkook meets Jimin. Rather, Jimin was the one that has been looking all over for him. "You have some explaining to do."
"What?" Jungkook was surprised but then he started to understand why he was. It doesn't need much explanation for Jimin to be upset when it comes to his best friend. This must be about Taehyung
Jimin sighs "You're really a dumbass aren't you."
Jungkook tilts "Huh?"
"I was the one who gave him the tickets. Told him to have fun but I didn't expect you to blew it away "
Back then Jungkook wasn't given a chance. He was a superhero for god's sake. It's not like it was his choice to bail out and fight the monster destroying Seoul.
"I promised to make it up to him."
Jimin frowns "It's not just about that... he was crying when you left him. It's about the commitment."
Jungkook was committed. Again, it wasn't his fault he's a superhero but he can't say that to Jimin. Not to anyone. Not even Taehyung. He knows he must be upset or even mad, he must have told a lot to his best friend, that just proves how upset he is.
"I'm sorry.."
"You're not supposed to apologize to me."
"Right. Tell him I'm sorry."
"Tell him on your next date."
He should. He promised he would.
"Now help me with my homework... I wasn't paying attention." It seems that was the only conversation that could light the mood up.
Though as he had just finished helping he received another incoming call. The ringtone already screams Namjoon. "Sorry, I gotta take this." He left without a word.
"Jungkook, it seems that from the sample I got from that mutant match has inhuman genes. "
"I know. I fought them. Found the strength they're getting is from the same crystal. Just gotta take it right?" If only things were that simple.
"Next Sunday. I predict that they'll act again."
"You're kidding." That's the day of his second date.
"No. It's at the Bucheon. There's a festival there going on and he'll target large crowds again. Besides, the president will be there."
Out of all the places, it's just Jungkook's bad luck working it's way once again.
"Please be wrong."
"You know that's rarely the case." Jungkook knows that but maybe fate will be on his side. "Why? You got plans?"
"I have a date. I have a date in that same amusement park and I don't want to blow it!"
"Sorry to say but you better choose either your date or the entire people in that festival." He hates it when he's guilt tripped like that. Of course he wants to have the best of both worlds.
Namjoon hangs up. This month feels like a rollercoaster of emotions he just wants to scream and minutes away from banging his head to the wall—
"Hey Jungkook!"
He turns to the voice. "Hi Tae, What can I help you with?" Taehyung looks fine, it was in so much contrast from what Jimin had told him. He wonders if maybe Jimin is over reacting, maybe it's Taehyung that doesn't want to tell him his true feelings.
Of course. No one would tell another of his true reasons for being hurt.
"Well it's about--"
"Homework? I already got it covered. I think I got everyones but yours--"
"Actually, I already finished mine." That felt painfully awkward. Of course, Taehyung isn't the type to bother others. Besides that he's also smart in studies. He shouldn't have said so easily.
He needs to tell him he can't go. It's too risky to have everything canceled out just like before. He doesn't want him to be hurt."I need to tell you something."
"Me too actually."
Jungkook's lips form an O "Can I go first?"
Taehyung nods.
"I want to apologize for yesterday.. I shouldn't have done that. I'm sorry."
Taehyung tilts his head at 45 degrees. "I already said it's fine. I would do the same if I were in your shoes." Except that he was in his shoes and that's not what he did. Taehyung got back there to save him even if he was scared shitless. "You can apologize to me by next Sunday. Treat me a good time will you?"
That wasn't all what he was supposed to say but words were stuck on his throat. He couldn't bring himself to tell when he's so excited, when Jungkook is excited for it as well.
"So I was going to tell you to dress up nicely because I will." Taehyung smiles
"A-Ah.. I see.."
"It's a date."
Jungkooo blinks "Come again?"
"Nothing. My lips just slipped." Taehyung blushes. "I'm just a bit nervous.. I really hope you can come." And he ran away just like that. Completely blushing in red.
Jungkook finds his hands reaching on its own. He was far from done, he wasn't there only to apologize but to cancel everything and then apologize again "Wait!" Jungkook needs to tell him right now.
Taehyung stops his track just in time for him to respond to Jungkook's desperate call just before he dissapears "Yea?"
"My part is too hard. Can you help me?" He finds an excuse to lure in time. Not only does this surprise Jungkook who has always been too smart to ask for anyone's help but Taehyung was surprised that he hadn't finished.
"The infamous smart Jungkook asking for my help?" Taehyung giggles "I sure can't wait to tweet this!"
Jungkook blushes. "Y-Yea.. I've been out of it these days and found myself in a nitch."
Taehyung is more than happy to help when he's currently free of responsibilities. "Let's go."
"H-Huh?"
"Homework, study or whatever. Let's go to my place and let's discuss it there."
Jungkook was eventually dragged. It should be good, he got the chance that he wants. Alone or not he should tell him he can't make it this Sunday.
Taehyung was so alluring it seems he gets sucked in by his charm every second. He knows he's here for his excuse of homework but reality hits him hard when he is standing almost stone like while the door is being opened for his entrance.
"Oh! Gimme a few seconds to clean my room." Taehyung shamelessly says but Jungkook was left in front of the door for merely 15 seconds before letting him enter. "It's embarrassing to say but it was a bit messy." He rubs his neck.
If it only took him 15 seconds then it can't be messy at all.
There was something particular with Taehyung's room. Something inside Jungkook's stomach tingles when he enters. The cup of tea Taehyung brought along for him surely was trying to soothe the pit but he still felt nervous. He wonders why. The room wasn't a special room but he could smell freshly sprayed cotton and a small mask of hot Cheetos.
"Cheetos.." He unconsciously mutters out his thoughts. "Oh, sorry!"
Taehyung gasps before he claims "I'm embarrassed..I wanted to mask the scent of cheetos I left before I went to University. Actually, the smell should be faint.. I can't even smell it myself!" Jungkook chuckles in response. So that's what messy meant.
"I think you got mad senses. Hmm.. Kook senses? OH! Kookie tingles!!"
Kookie tingles sound odd but anything that comes out of Taehyung's lips is funny.
But that's not why he came here.
"I feel like you can solve this easily without my help." Taehyung sighs deeply. He finished his cup of tea while he side eyes Jungkook to see his flustered response. "You didn't come to me for a homework consultation right?"
Spot on. Maybe Jungkook shouldn't have tried to be smarty pants in re-correct him and do it at home instead. "Well-"
"You just wanna spend some time with me?"
Jungkook swallows with his dry throat. That's not it but also not entirely wrong. "I-I t-think you're just guessing. I-I-It's to study!"
When he looks so nervous there's no way that's true. Taehyung laughs loudly until he holds his stomach.
"W-what's so funny?"
"Oh Jungkook." Taehyung wipes the last of tears hanging on his eyes "It's perfectly fine to be honest. Don't be shy!"
Jungkook blushes because he's embarrassed. He plays his fingers to get his mind off how silly he was. He gives his attention back to Taehyung.
"Come on Jungkook. Just admit that I'm right."
Eventually Jungkook nods, slowly.
"See, that wasn't hard." He giggles "What do you want to do? You can stay for dinner, I'll cook for ya. Oh! Or maybe you can stay for a sleepover, you can just use my clothes."
That all sounds nice and he doesn't want to refuse any of them. But that's still not it. "From a scale from 1 to 10, how excited are you for Sunday?"
"20. There will be fireworks, Kook. And- and- food, masks and souvenirs shops that's exclusively opened by then!" It was a once in a year opportunity. They've already bonded so well and Taehyung was so excited for it you can see his eyes glittering whenever they mention it.
"Taehyung.. I-" Come on, you can do it "I'm really happy that you still invited me despite everything."
"Jungkook.. I told you I'm not mad." He frowns.
"I know but— I heard it from Jimin himself. He told me you weren't fine with it, you cried. Our movie night was a mess and I just- I just left you and that's unforgivable for me. I-I didn't think you cared so much that you'd go back in and search for me."
"Oh." Taehyung looks down. He didn't think Jimin was the type to spoil secrets. "The moment you hung up our call, I went to him and told everything. At first I was pretty upset.. but I thought about it again and found that it's not your fault. How could we know a giant mutant was attacking nearby? It's only logical we would think about our safety first."
His words should be reassuring but it gave him the opposite effect. Now he knows that Taehyung was a precious friend, worth risking it all for.
"I have premium Netflix so we can always continue where we left off." Taehyung brought it up to lift the mood. "Are your hands still cold? Wanna hold mine?" Taehyung smirks at the end , clearly he was only teasing him.
Jungkook blushes "Oh stop it. I foreal was cold. Totally wasn't saying just to hold your hands or anything." Shit, did he just say that out loud ?
"You're so cute. Let's watch movies all night and cuddle."
"A-All night?? C-C-Cuddle???" Jungkook was having a hard time processing it all. The latter doesn't seem to be joking, he was grabbing his TV remote and turning on Netflix.
"Come on. Wanna continue with Ironman or are we gonna watch horrors?"
"Wait wait wait. What do you mean by all night? W-were you serious about me staying over? What about your sister?!" Jungkook cuts him.
"My sister isn't home. No one is. You can use my clothes and we have a new toothbrush here!." It's just the two of them with the house. But still. Jungkook was unprepared, he could use Taehyung's like he offered but it felt a bit too sudden and too impolite.
"I don't know.."
"Come onnn. It's a lonely night for me!"
Well if he insists that badly. Nothing beats sleeping over in his cotton scented room. His crush's room. This was god tear amazing. "Ok!" Taehyung then cheers with him and implies he'll get the popcorn
Wait a minute.
Did he just imagine sleeping in his room?
"T-Tae, is there a spare room for me to stay?"
Taehyung pauses. He's clearly thinking. "My sister locked her room, my parent's room is off limits and the guest room is a bit messy right now.. I can sleep on the couch!"
Jungkook shakes his head "Nonono! I will!! You just get your beauty sleep in this comfy room. I'm used to the sofa."
Taehyung giggles in response "I knew you would say that. How about we both sleep on my bed? It's queen size so I think we can cuddle just fine."
Jungkook blushes again. That didn't seem like a bad idea. In fact, he loves it. He wants to recreate those scenes he learns from mangas and novels, he wants to spoon feed him and sing a lullaby before he sleeps.
Another thing he thought of was more disgusting things. He worried that he'd do. If he'll get hard again while they cuddle. Maybe that's why he should be the little spoon. He knows how this goes, its where they'll both be embarrassed, their breaths are so close to each other and they'll sleep talk, wait no, Jungkook will be the one who talks in this sleep and says how hot Taehyung is and when Taehyung wakes up he'll ask what he was dreaming and he'll make up an excuse but then he'll fail so bad he has to-
"Come on and pick a movie." Taehyung hands him the remote, cutting his thoughts.
"R-Right right." Hopefully this time he wasn't too loud with his thoughts. Something else came to his mind "Hey Tae"
"Yea?"
"If you can watch ironman at home then why did you invite me to the cinema with you?"
It was Taehyung's turn to be flustered with thoughts in his head. He grabs the tea and popcorn nervously, he no longer can control where he's looking, anywhere is fine as long as he doesn't have to look at Jungkook's large curious orbs. "It's not just you ok. I wanted to spend time with you too." Taehyung blushes as he said.
"O-oh." They're definitely not gonna make the night alive without a few heart attacks here and there. How could Jungkook ever? Taehyung is so goddamn beautiful he could hardly contain himself from staring. Every little thing he did just gave him a mini heart attack.
The night was harder to sleep in than he thought. There was nothing wrong with his room. It's clean, spotless and the temperature is just right. There were just so many to his thoughts, all of them are related to Taehyung.
Just like he thought, the slightly older was sleeping beside him, it's really happening. He never thought the day would come where he would feel the weight of another body sleeping besides him. The bed was a queen size, it's spacious for one person but definitely not for two grown men.
He could hardly get tired. In fact, he's still full of energy from the big cola they just drank (he was making it up).
Then Taehyung turns around. He was the one who was tired, he snores but it wasn't loud and wasn't the thing that made him awake till now. He was just.. mesmerized that they're together.
He can have his eyes open or close and Jungkook will always feel like he's being sucked in. Taehyung was parting his lips by a slight, he can finally stare at his little mole below without being judged.
He wants to kiss him. Taehyung is too tempting. He's just a boy, he's still young. Taehyung is defenseless in front of him, he can just kiss him and go right?
What Jungkook feared has finally come. This happens when they're both alone and together, his dick has risen. Oh no. He really just got hard at the thought of kissing his long life crush.
