30. The new Development
After slipping into a new outfit for the day, and doing other things to get ready Taehyung giddily jumped into his car driving back to Jungkook's apartment. It felt almost strange going back to Jungkook after he had just left him, but ignoring the thought that he might be spending to much time with Jungkook, continued there.
Arriving in a matter of minutes Taehyung jumped out while smoothing his wrinkled clothes. Speed walking up the stairs he stopped at the door, and quickly knocked, anxious to start his day.
Opening it was Namjoon who blandly sighed "Come in Taehyung, Jungkook will be ready in a second he was just changing...". Walking inside Taehyung leaned against the wall to wait as he gave Namjoon a nod, and forced smile. The next minute went by slowly as Namjoon kept on giving Taehyung curious, and weirded out looks. Finally Jungkook burst out of his bedroom excitedly wearing a once again tighter than usual shirt.
Walking towards Taehyung smiling Jungkook put on a jacket while doing so and said "Hello again Taehyung! Let's go!". Seeing Jungkook, Taehyung's presently blank expression quickly changed to an amorous smile.Talking cooly Taehyung said "OK, when we get to my car you can direct me to the arcade you mentioned".Starting to walk out Jungkook turned to Namjoon and added "Bye Namjoon, see you later!".Eating something Namjoon turned his head to him while mumbling "Yeah bye". Walking down the stairs and getting into the car Jungkook told Taehyung where to go, and soon they arrived to the arcade. By the time they walked in the two were already being flirtatiously talkative as they lovingly smiled at each other. It was at least 10 minutes before they even played anything, as all they did was talk.
Finally Taehyung paused as he asked "Do you want to play anything?".Goofily smiling Jungkook answered "Of course! Let's play.....that!". Pointing at a two person fighting game, Jungkook looked at Taehyung eyes sparkling.Agreeing Taehyung added "Well...Ok It might be a little hard for someone who rarely plays it though.....".Not hearing the rest of what Taehyung said Jungkook grabbed his hand pulling him closer exclaiming "Let's start!! Let's start!!". Smiling at Jungkook's enthusiasm and excitement for this Taehyung got his hands in position, as Jungkook did a little too quickly to.After picking characters, and right before the game started Taehyung told himself he should take it easy on Jungkook so that he wouldn't lose easily. As the game started, Jungkook's focus was completely directed towards the game. Seconds later Taehyung started to lose. Very surprised he tried as hard as he could, but Jungkook still ended up winning.Speechless of Jungkook's ability, he turned his head to Jungkook who was already innocently looking at him slightly smiling. How had he won so easily? Maybe Jungkook was better than he had thought.
Speaking first Jungkook chimed "Let's play again!! That was fun!".Now knowing Jungkook was actually very good, Taehyung prepared himself as he answered "OK, let's play again". The second round Taehyung was more prepared, but somehow Jungkook still won. Quickly Jungkook turned to him, almost like he was checking up on him.Seeing this Taehyung let out "Do you want to try a different game?". Nodding the two set off for another game. Right before they started another one Taehyung noticed a claw machine, filled with different stuffed animals. Remembering how Jungkook's room was filled with ones similar to those before he was robbed walked up to it.When he got to it followed by Jungkook he stated "Hey Jungkook, since you won.....how about I get you a prize?".Eyes widening in excitement, Jungkook stammered "Really!". Nodding Taehyung smiled as he put money it.
While trying to pick up one of the mario ones he saw Jungkook used to have he asked "You like this kind of stuff right? I remember seeing it in your room before you were robbed.".Mouth open Jungkook nodded as he exclaimed "Yeah! I'm surprised you.....remember".Joking Taehyung laughed "Of course I remember, at the time I thought it was really weird". Jungkook's pout slowly turned into a flustered smile as he realized he was joking.A second later Taehyung smiled with triumph as he successfully got Jungkook's prize.Widely smiling he handed it while saying "Here you go Jungkook".Jungkook for some reason started to blush as he replied "Thank you Taehyung". A couple more hours passed at the arcade, as the two walked around going from game to game very subtly flirting. They hadn't even realized they had spent so much time there until Taehyung checked the time and realized it was so much later.Letting Jungkook know he announced "Jungkook it's actually later than I thought, we should probably get going soon."Sad to see there day start to end Jungkook mumbled "Oh....well let's play one more game!". Quickly Jungkook grabbed Taehyung and pulled him over to a game similar to the first one they played.Not wanting his day to end with Jungkook either, Taehyung said after coming up with a good idea "I know Jungkook how about if I win I have to take you out to dinner, and if you win I have to take you out for dinner".Starting to question Taehyung's idea Jungkook asked "Wait...doesn't that mean that--".Before he could finish Taehyung slyly interrupted him saying "Ok..START!". In a flash the game had started distracting him from Taehyung's plan to get him to go out to eat with him. By the end Jungkook had won, and once again he turned to Taehyung.Smiling to himself Taehyung exclaimed "Well, you won so that means I get to take you out to eat".Smiling Jungkook asked "Where do you want to go?".Walking back to his car Taehyung answered "Let me surprise you!". Getting in Taehyung started to drive somewhere.After a while of driving Jungkook curious queried "Where are we going? Why is it taking so long?".Sighing Taehyung stated "We're almost there". As Taehyung said a couple minutes later they arrived at a very fancy looking restaurant.Walking out Jungkook breathed "WOWW!!!!". Putting his hand on Jungkook's back he directed him in smiling.When they got inside Jungkook even louder drawing attention to himself and Taehyung exclaimed "WOWWWWWW!!!". The restaurant was extremely fancy, and obviously for celebrities, and extremely rich people. Jungkook had a lot of fun today with Taehyung, and when he heard that they were going out to eat he got excited, but never had he imagined Taehyung would bring him somewhere like here! Jungkook absently followed Taehyung as he stared at his surroundings.Sitting down at a small table with a bouquet of roses in the middle Taehyung smiled "Do you like it?".
Now focusing at the elegant looking tabel they were at Jungkook whispered "Yeah! Wow! It's so fancy looking!". Obviously Happy he was with Jungkook at a romantic looking place started to slightly blush. A second later Jungkook picked up the menu and his eyes quickly widened.Once again he exclaimed "WOW! It's pricey!"Not looking up from the menu Taehyung had he added "Well, order whatever you want.....it's my treat". Taehyung couldn't help but sneak a glance at Jungkook every once in a while. He didn't want to be caught staring, but it seemed after a day with him only made his feelings feel stronger. Now more than ever did he want Jungkook to feel the same way. If only there was a way......just then Taehyung decided to try something. He knew that Jungkook was a 'fan' of his so why not show him a movie with him in it? And not just any movie either. It would be the one that countless people describe as 'this movie could make anyone fall in love with Kim Taehyung'. Smiling to himself he knew they would have to finish eating first.Quickly they ordered there meals. Jungkook had ended up ordering one of the most expensive meals on the menu. Taehyung seeing this found it only cute. As they waited for there food the two talked to each other non-stop.After Jungkook said bye to Taehyung, and went up to his apartment he was immediately questioned by Namjoon who asked, "What took you so long? I thought you were just going to an arcade?".Still a bit lost in his thoughts it took a while for Jungkook to answer but finally he responded, "Well, we also went out to eat and watched a movie".Raising his eyebrows Namjoon exclaimed, "I guess that explains why it took you so long", a moment later Namjoon realized that Jungkook was being strangely quiet so continuing he asked, "Are you OK Jungkook?". Alerting his eyes Jungkook raised is head after hearing Namjoon.Obviously deep in thought Jungkook mumbled, "Huh! Yeah, I'm fine...it's just...nevermind". Namjoon started to get curious. Jungkook was acting different than usual, and even more pressing what was he about to tell him?Coaxing him to continue Namjoon asked, "What? Why don't you tell me Jungkook!".Walking up to Namjoon hesitantly Jungkook started to stammer saying, "Well, it's just.......today when I was with Taehyung.....I caught myself staring at him, and also thinking.....".Namjoon had not expected Jungkook to say that, so taken aback Namjoon exclaimed, "Oh...What were you thinking about?". Namjoon hesitated asking Jungkook this. He wasn't sure if he wanted to know the answer himself, but he knew he had to put Jungkook at ease. He seemed very confused about something.Slightly pursing his lips, Jungkook innocently looked at Namjoon as he hesitated, "Well.....It seems I have these feelings for Taehyung.......I'm not sure exactly though. All I know is that I couldn't help but stare at him on the way back here. It started right after we reenacted a scene together.....well maybe before then....". Jungkook started to trail off into his own thoughts again.Sighing Namjoon didn't want to interfere too much, but at the same time it was very obvious what Jungkook was 'feeling'. He had assumed Taehyung felt this way for Jungkook from the beginning, but never had he guessed Jungkook would begin to too. Namjoon wasn't sure if he should blurt out the obvious, or let Jungkook figure it out for himself more thoroughly. Although Namjoon was still happy Jungkook had confided in him.Finally after leaving Jungkook to wait for a while Namjoon decided to leave it for Jungkook to find out, so sighing again he said, "Well Jungkook, I think you should figure out those mysterious feelings for Taehyung for you self. Explore them".Widening his eyes - oblivious - Jungkook started to nod and walk away as he grinned mumbling "Yes......explore them". Seeing Jungkook's creepy reaction to his advise, Namjoon hoped he didn't give Jungkook any...ideas.A couple seconds later after the two's conversation that was confusing for Jungkook, and obvious for Namjoon ended, it hit Namjoon. Did Jungkook say he and Taehyung reenacted a scene together? Not wanting to find out more about what was going on between the two, Namjoon once again decided to leave it.As Namjoon started to wash dishes Jungkook trudged over to his blanket bed, and sat down slowly. He had decided to take Namjoons advise and explore his feelings, whatever that might include. Jungkook really was confused though, he had no idea what these powerful feelings that keep on dragging his mind towards Taehyung were. Everytime he thought about it his heart started to beat faster. Jungkook wasn't sure why he couldn't place this feeling, it felt so peculiarly unfamiliar to him.However, Taehyung Currently was just approaching his home after he deemed his day pretty successful with Jungkook. Even if Jungkook didn't fall head over heels in love with him, Taehyung still felt some progress in there....friendship.Hearing the word friendship enter his mind again Taehyung couldn't help but sigh. Why couldn't their relationship be more than just friends, and everytime he forced himself to call it that it somehow sunk his heart. Despite there relationship only being platonic, Taehyung still couldn't help but grin at the events of that day.Everything seemed to go by so quickly, yet the memories were still vivid in his mind. The only thing that Taehyung questioned was the end, when they reenacted the scene together. It wasn't like Taehyung objected to any of that happening it was just confusing for him.Having Jungkook play along like that made him so tempted to lean in further he almost did, and when he was about to it felt as if Jungkook was moving in closer to. Feeling his heart beat faster at the thought of that moment, he in hope for more in the future, passionately bit his lip.Was there a chance that the movie had worked? Once again Taehyung denied the thought that this love was not one sided. He shouldn't make assumptions about that because if he did he could find himself getting too carried away when around Jungkook. The next time he would see Jungkook would be the upcoming Monday. And even though he had spent the whole day with him, he still yearned for Jungkooks present company.On his way inside, Taehyung quickly checked his mailbox to find the script for episode 4. Taehyung had almost forgot about the show. Episode 3 was now finished, and ofcourse now he had to go over his script.Flipping through it as he entered inside his home, a sense of dread crossed him as he realized......this was going to be Jungkooks last episode. Confused Taehyung wondered why it said Jungkook left this episode. The director had told Jungkook and everyone that he would be on for at least 5 episodes. Why was his time being cut short, especially considering Jungkooks talent.Sighing Taehyung realized he hadn't really thought about Jungkook leaving the show until now. He had grown so accustomed to his schedule that included Jungkook, he had forgot all about what would happen with Jungkook wasn't in the show anymore. Surely they could still hangout, but at the same time the show gave Taehyung so many excuses to be with Jungkook, and who knows.....what if Jungkook doesn't keep in touch after he leaves.Deciding to deal with this dreaded thought later, Taehyung more thoroughly went through the script, and to his delight he did find one thing that he liked about this episode. Apparently Jungkooks character tries to make a move on his character, and there is a whole 'goodbye' scene for Jungkook and him that includes more romance than expected.Looking through that same scene again Taehyung was surprised by the turn this episode took. It seemed Jungkooks character was moving somewhere, so before he left he went up to Taehyung's character and confessed his love. After he did that he...eyes widening Taehyung looked at the smally printed italic letters to see if what he read was correct.Double checking Taehyung mumbled out loud breathing heavily "They then....Kiss". They were supposed to kiss.....on screen?! A rush of panic sprang on Taehyung as to many thoughts flooded into his head. He couldn't actually believe that the director expected him....and JIN to kiss.It wasn't as if Taehyung didn't want to kiss Jungkook, it was actually the exact opposite. It was just so many other things to take into account. What if Jungkook got weirded out? What if he messed up somehow and acted to pleased? Slowly each of Taehyung worries vanished, as Taehyung's distracting visual thoughts about this upcoming event slowly drowned everything else out.Calming down a bit more, Taehyung began to feel curious about how Jungkook would react to this. Taehyung also started to think about the upsides. If Jungkook really never would feel the same, this opportunity would give him the excuse to kiss him without any consequences.His worried and taken aback expression suddenly transformed into a slight smirk. Looking more into the stage directions, to see what else there was, Taehyung found that he was supposed to pull away from Jungkook. Jungkook also did a few other gestures that Taehyung knew would make his heart flutter, but Taehyung was still a professional so strictly he reminded himself not to get carried away or mess up like the last time they had a scene like this together.Jungkook on the other hand, hadn't thought to check his mail for the script. He had enough on his plate anyways. The next day Jungkook had to spend practically the whole day at his part time job. He had forgotten about it because of the long day he had spent with Taehyung.As everyone settled down for the night soon Sunday approached, and Jungkook went to work as Taehyung looked over the script. The day went by slowly, but it eventually finished as Jungkook got off work, and Taehyung lazed around.As Jungkook approached his apartment building, he out of habit checked his mail to finally find the script for the next day. Jungkook had already had a very tiring and lonely day because of numerous annoying customers draining the energy out of him. So grabbing it lazily, he sluggishly walked up the stairs. Jungkook was so tired he decided only to flip through it. He could look at it more the next day. So arriving at his door he slowly opened it, and immediately plopped himself down on the floor.Yawning Jungkook looked at a couple of pages, but before he got to the part with him and Taehyung, he tiredly fell asleep without meaning to. Leaving the discovery of him leaving the show, and the kiss for tomorrow.
