Chapter 21
That night, as Jungkook had expected, they all stayed up late even though they had school the very next day. In addition to that Taehyung and Hoseok had stayed at his house, too. One thing, out of many, he had in his mind was how did they not even think about other factors before deciding? But then again, not everyone was like him nor were Hoseok and Taehyung normal people, so, it didn't matter.
When Jungkook woke up next morning he felt a strange weight on his chest and his arm also felt numb. He tried to move his body with eyes still closed but wasn't able to. Peeking through one half lidded eye he was able to make out something soft and brown touching his chin. He turned to see his arm and another similar thing of orange color was present there.
He blinked a few times to see clearly what those things were. Finally, when his mind woke up completely, he realized that those things were actually heads. Heads? The moment reality hit him, his head jerked to the person on his chest and his heart started thumping out of control. He was on his bed with Taehyung lying on top of him and Hoseok in only his boxers, on his side straddling one of his leg. But the thought that made him ignore the almost naked Hoseok, was the sight on his chest.
Taehyung. On his chest. Wearing his spare shirt. Hugging him like he was a plushie.
Jungkook's breathing became ragged and his body stiffened. He tried to get out from underneath the two of them. He wasn't able to think straight now. Even though Hoseok was right there, too, Jungkook's eyes were only glued to Taehyung who was now snuggling into his chest even more and whining softly trying to stop Jungkook from moving. Jungkook's face started to heat up and pink tainted his cheeks. Having Taehyung so close to him like that was giving him weird feelings again.
The moment sleeping Taehyung's hands gripped his shirt in a fist, Jungkook went into panic mode. He suddenly sat up causing Taehyung to roll over and down on the floor with a thud.
"Oww." Taehyung rubbed his bottom still unable to open his eyes. He mumbled some incoherent words but was too sleepy to say more and started dozing off again.
Hoseok woke up from the sound of Taehyung's fall and rubbed his eyes.
"What? What happened?" He asked trying to adjust to the situation.
Jungkook took the opportunity to quickly get up and go to the bathroom. He convinced himself that he just needed to clear his mind since he wasn't fully awake and his mind was making up weird things. And he wouldn't be able to think properly if he stayed there. Plus, his throat was dried up by now and he was blushing madly, so he wouldn't be able to ponder well, even if he wanted to. But Jungkook dismissed that thought as quickly as it occurred to him.
When Jungkook left and closed the door behind him, Taehyung opened his eyes slightly and saw the empty bed. He climbed back up in Jungkook's spot and went to sleep again. Hoseok thought for a moment if he should let him sleep or not. But seeing the bathroom engaged he went with the first option and laid back down himself, as well and slept again.
Jungkook, on the other hand, was in the bathroom, trying to calm his heart as he stood with his back resting against the door. One hand was fanning his face to get rid of the heat that was causing his face to become red while the other was holding his heart that was still beating out of control.
That was awkward. What he felt, what he thought, what he did, all of it was awkward. But he couldn't understand why, though? Why was he feeling this way around Taehyung?
/Maybe it's my intuition telling me to stay away from him. Maybe he is not as good of a guy as he seems to be./
Jungkook stared at his reflection in the mirror as he thought so, and laughed mockingly at himself. He shook his head instantly. Why was he being so pessimistic? He didn't need to go to that extent over a small incident as this one. He was only over reacting, as usual. It's just that he didn't expect to have company when he woke up and having one, being unusual, just startled him. That's all. No need to think further about it.
With that final conclusion, Jungkook sighed and pushed himself away from the door and finally went for the shower.
When he came out, both Taehyung and Hoseok were sleeping on his bed. He wondered if they were planning on ditching the classes today, which didn't seem surprising even if they did so, anyway. Still feeling a little sense of responsibility, he went and tapped Hoseok on his shoulder to wake him up.
"Hyung? Hyung? Aren't you going to school today?" He asked softly.
Hoseok opened his eyes slowly and blinked away the sleep as he pushed the sheet over him and pulled his legs close and then down the bed. He smiled at Jungkook and thanked him before going to fresh himself.
Before Hoseok entered the bathroom Jungkook called him.
"Uh, hyung?"
"Hmm?" Hoseok turned around to Jungkook.
"Will you wake him up after coming out or should I wake him up now?" Jungkook asked pointing at Taehyung who was still dozing off.
Hoseok just smiled at him and waved his hand in dismissal. Jungkook nodded and went to his drawer to get his uniform while Hoseok went in.
Although it felt weird changing his clothes with Taehyung in his room, Jungkook didn't let himself think much about it seeing the older boy was sleeping soundly. He quickly changed and set his hair before walking out to the kitchen.
His mother was already up and was setting the breakfast for three people on the table.
"Morning sweety."
"Morning mom." Jungkook replied as he pulled out a chair and sat down at the table.
"Is Jimin coming for breakfast?" Jungkook just shook his head and ate his food quietly.
This was going to be the second morning without Jimin. He didn't mind him spending time with his crush but he would have appreciated if he was contacted at least once.
Jungkook was almost done when Hoseok came out dragging Taehyung with him. Mrs. Jeon looked at them and laughed uncontrollably. Hoseok bowed a little as he greeted her, jerking Taehyung as he pulled him down as well. Taehyung bowed sleepily before Hoseok seated him in a chair and sat himself down as well.
Jungkook looked at Taehyung who was still trying to get some sleep even at the table. Jungkook's gaze traveled all over his face and he couldn't help but admire how perfect his looks were even in his sleepy state. He kept staring at the boy and tuned everything in his surrounding, out. That is, until, Mrs. Jeon cleared her throat rather loudly to pull the spell off of him.
Jungkook immediately shook his head and went to his room. He was as red as a tomato, by now. Embarrassment displayed on his face, evident of his awareness of his huge mistake. Jungkook put his head in the pillow as he groaned loudly. He couldn't believe how stupid he was. He just got caught ogling at someone whom he hadn't even known for one complete week. And by none other than his mother. It couldn't get any worse than that. It just couldn't. He wanted to be swallowed whole in the ground right then and there. There was no way he would be able to face any of those three faces again. Not unless they loose their memory, or he does his.
Realizing how childish his thoughts were he groaned again and punched the pillow from the sides as he did. Why did he have to do that? Why did Taehyung had to be sitting in front of him? Why did he look so God damn hot even when sleeping? Wait, what?
"Nooooo~" Jungkook whined in the pillow and stomped his legs on the bed as well, this time. He was going crazy. No, he had gone crazy, already.
Jungkook got up and went to wash up his face one more time to get rid of his shame and weariness. When he looked up at his reflection after washing his face he thought of how Taehyung's damp hair would look.
Jungkook face palmed and hit his head lightly on the mirror.
/Jeon Jungkook, you have lost your mind, completely. There's no other explanation./
Jungkook sighed in defeat as he dragged his limp body out of the room and walked out with his head hung low.
His mother only giggled lightly at his actions. She was loving it and there was no way she was going to let her son loose contact with Taehyung and Hoseok ever, even if he begged on his knees someday. This was the best mood her son had ever been in and she was going to do anything to keep it that way.
Hoseok only smiled at him and thanked Mrs. Jeon before getting up and going for his final move to wake Taehyung up. He moved back a little and pulled his bag on his shoulder. Mrs. Jeon was now taking the dishes in the kitchen. Seeing the coast clear, he took the glass and filled it with ice cold water before slowly pulling Taehyung's shirt from the back slightly and pouring the whole glass in one fluid motion. Mrs. Jeon was watching from a little distance and when Taehyung yelped and jumped up, she burst out laughing.
Luckily, their house didn't have any carpet so it wasn't a problem for Jungkook's mother and even if it was she wouldn't mind it, if it meant she could watch the greatest live comedy show she had witnessed.
Taehyung was about to curse at Hoseok when he realized who was laughing at them and bit his tongue to stop himself. He didn't, however, hold back in glaring knives, daggers and everything sharp at Hoseok.
When Mrs. Jeon went back in the kitchen, Taehyung mouthed 'You're dead' at Hoseok who just shrugged at him, leaving him standing there in wet shirt and went out. Taehyung was about to follow him when he realized what he was wearing. He quickly went back to Jungkook's room and took off Jungkook's shirt to put on his uniform back. He unintentionally put the shirt in his bag instead of putting it back in the cupboard and slung the bag on his back before running out screaming a 'goodbye' to Jungkook's mother on his way out.
