Jungkook's eyes widen as he looks at the innocent boy next to him, who's pointing at the drawing confused.

"What?" is the only thing Jungkook can come up with.

He's talking!

Butterflies flies around inside his stomach, feeling a type of relief and happiness he didn't think he was able to feel.

Before Jungkook can get his thoughts under control, the brunette snatches the paper from his hand. He turns around so he's facing a jungshooked boy, who's looking at him weirdly. He lifts his hand and points at the bunny on the paper.

"You look like it" the words are perfect. No stutter or grammar mistakes. Jungkook is just sitting dumbfounded.

"Wha-"

"Teeth" Taehyung states, his face expressionless, just trying to make Jungkook understand his statement.

"Ye-yeah, I have bunny teeth" the elder breathes out and suddenly starts giggling. Taehyung flinches slightly by the sudden outburst, looking at the bunny smile on the man's face.

"So, you can talk? Pretty well actually" Jungkook points out. Taehyung just looks at him, thinking about what to answer. It has been so long since he spoke.

"Yes," Taehyung made it short, not wanting to jump out in talking to the boy in front of him. He's still a stranger. Why should he trust him? He doesn't even know why he is talking to the weird guy. But he just seems so... comfortable. But the younger is still terrified.

"Wh-why haven't you talked earlier?" Jungkook asks. With that Taehyung pushes himself back to the corner, turns around roughly and stares at the wall like he always does. Jungkook sighs.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to bother..."

No answer. Just the normal silence filling the room up again. The elder is about to say something when he feels his phone vibrate. He picks it up and sees the text from Jimin.

"Come on! Don't tell me you fell asleep again?"

He looks at the clock. An hour has already passed, but it feels like minutes. He must have been staring at Taehyung for ages.

After sighing again, Jungkook stands up and faces Taehyung one last time.

"See you tomorrow."

He opens the door and leaves the room.

Time skip

JUNGKOOK/JIMIN/(YOONGI)

Jimin is pulling Jungkook all the way through the crowd, he knows the owner so they can skip the queue.

"Wait, Jimin! I really need to tell you something" Jungkook tries to convince the other, who had been running ever since Jungkook stepped outside Taehyung's room. He never had a chance to explain that Taehyung fucking talked!

"Jesus, what is it? I want food," Jimin whines as he finally stops, making Jungkook bump into him. "Aish dude".

"You're the one who stopped," Jungkook defends himself, rubbing his chest. Jimin flips his hair to the side, waiting for Jungkook to start talking.

"He talked," Jungkook said.

"Who?" Jimin was confused.

"Taehyung obviously."

It's hard to describe how big Jimin's eyes grow. His smile fills his face as he looks at the raven, excited.

"NO FUCKING WAY!? Are you serious?" His voice almost cracks and Jungkook steps back a little from his excited friend.

"Yeah?"

"OMG JUNGKOOKIE! You have no idea what this means to me! I have been working with him for so long and he final-"

The blonde stops mid-sentence. He looks at the ground with one eyebrow raised, his hand under his chin.

"How the hell did you do it? I mean, I have worked with him for so long and he didn't even look at me..."

"Well, you're an asshole, so I get him" Jungkook teases, earning a smack on the shoulder.

"But seriously, what did you do?" Jimin smirks, pushing his hair back before placing a pair of sunglasses in it. Jungkook shows him his tongue and pushes him lightly.

"No one can resist my charm~"

"Brat."

Jungkook giggles at the younger's reaction. They decide to go into one of the small cafés, placing themselves at the back. Jimin leans back and sighs in relief. He has been working with Taehyung for so long, and he has never seen any progress like this. Why Jungkook?

"Aish, I'm so tired" Jungkook bursts out, stretching his arms out while yawning. He has gotten too used to having a nap in Taehyung's room. Their food comes surprisingly fast and they start eating eagerly.

"Understandable, we have been working a lot lately" Jimin giggles. He's right they really have been analyzing and whatever constantly... their only escape being drinking all night long, not a good combination. Jungkook lays down on the table, arms crossed with his head resting on them.

He doesn't know why. But everything inside him screams that he wants to bring Taehyung here. Bring Taehyung everywhere. The innocent boy has never experienced life to its fullest, or at least that's what Jungkook thinks.

There's no one except Taehyung and that uncle of his who knows what happened in those 13 years.

Jungkook shakes the thought away, focusing back on Jimin who suddenly speaks up "I feel like we should bring Taehyung here". 

What the fuck. 

Is he mind-reader or something? The raven feels chills run down his spine. Freaky.

But he agrees. "Yeah, I feel like it's going to take a while though..." Jungkook sighs. Jimin raises an eyebrow "aish dude, have you seen how fucking far you have made it already? He wouldn't even spare me a second glance but he's already calling you bunny" Jimin frowns. Jungkook giggles at the other response. Well, he isn't wrong though.

"Let's see if I can get a better conversation with him tomorrow," Jungkook states. 

Suddenly Jimin's phone rings. He picks it up.

"Hey Yoongi! No. No, I'm with Kookie-" the blonde becomes silent, staring into space. Jungkook looks at him confused.

"O-okay. Yeah, I'll come home" his voice is weirdly dry and cold. After saying goodbye he ends the call and puts his phone back in his pocket.

"What's the matter? Is everything alright?" Jungkook asks, worried something's wrong with his hyung.

Jimin shows a smile that doesn't reach his eyes. "Yeah, everything's fine, just some bickering with his mother. But I probably have to go". Jungkook knows it's worse than that, but he doesn't comment on it.

They get up and stand by the cashier to pay. Jimin is quick to pay for his part before giving Jungkook a forced hug and run out the door.

Just some bickering. Yeah right.
