Taehyung and Jungkook - Nothing like us

8.

The boys were sleeping when Taehyung was still laying in bed, wide awake. As always.

He went his way through weverse and commented on millions of posts.

He got himself some food and a glass of water.

He went to the toilet and laid in bed again.

He sighed.
Then walked through their dorm and found Yoongis guitar, took it and tried to remember what the older showed him earlier. His fingers switched and trailed on and off the strings.
He played louder than he thought but before he was able to notice, Jin busted into his room.
"WOULD YOU PLEASE BE QUIET NOW?!"
Taehyung jumped by the sudden volume difference and his face gave a frightened view.
"I'm sorry, hyung. I was just trying to distract myself", he said carefully with a light voice.

"YOU ARE BLOWING UP MY PHONE! IF YOU DECIDE TO STAY UP ALL NIGHT, FINE, BUT I NEED MY SLEEP!"
"Hyung he said he was sorry!", Jungkooks voice burned through Jins wide shoulders and Taehyung could see his hand slide on them.
"Go to sleep, Jungkook! He needs to be quiet and respect our sleep schedule!"
"He can't sleep, okay?! It's not his fault. He was just trying to distract himself!"
"Get lost, Jungkook!"
"No! You leave him alone! He won't do it anymore okay?? He apologized!"
Jins face was as swollen as a dumpling and his ears were turning red.
"I'm sorry, hyung, I'm sorry, i didn't mean to mess up your schedule! I really didn't, I'm sorry!", Taehyung cried out and tears were streaming down his face.
"Taehyung, I-", was all, Jin was able to say until the younger ran past him and out of the front door.
"Where is he going?!", Jin asked.
"You know what? Don't fucking bother!", Jungkook said with a rough voice and flashed after Tae.

The said young man didn't have to go far until he found the slightly older. Taehyung sat on the ground, leaning against a little wall, his head put onto his knees.
"Hey, Tae", Jungkook said in a caring tone and squatted down.
Taehyung looked up and showed his face, which was completely overrun by all his tears. Jungkook caressed his soft cheek with his own hand and wiped his tears away.
"I really hope that you're not still mad at me?"
Taehyung shook his head lightly.
"Thank you for sticking up for me."
"Of course. Don't feel bad, its not your fault."
Tae nodded and gulped.
"Jin hyung seems sensitive. Your playing was nice."
"You listened to that?" the olders eyes lit up.
"N- not for long, I mean, hyung interrupted you pretty quickly", Jungkook said not noticing how his own face gained a bit of color.

Taehyung smiled. "Thank you, Jungkook."
The younger smiled too. "Do you mind if I sit there?", he pointed to that empty space next to Taehyung on the ground.
"Feel free."
It was early summer so it wasn't really cold.
Jungkook sank down next to Taehyung.
"Just don't think about Jin okay? Oh and I feel like I owe you an apology as well by the way."
Taehyung looked at him. "What for?"
"For pushing you away earlier", Jungkook said in a tiny voice and met with the olders eyes.
"It's okay, I'm sorry that I got so angry about it."
"You sure?", Jungkook asked.
"Yes, I am sure."

"Aren't you tired?" Jungkook asked.
Taehyung nodded. Now that he was just sitting there next to Jungkook, under the street lanterns watching darkness grow he noticed how tired he was. He could easily just.. lean on Jungkook.. would he mind?

Tae looked at him.
...
Jungkook looked back.
Tae blushed and cleared his throat.
Jungkook chuckled softly.
...
The older leaned on his shoulder.
Jungkooks heart beat fastened. He put an arm around Tae and stroked his hair tenderly.
Taehyung closed his eyes.

After a while Jungkook spoke again: "We should get inside, go to bed."
"Tae?"
"Tae?", he now whispered closely to the olders ear.
Taehyungs breathing was steady and calm. He was sleeping.
"Aren't you a sweet one", Jungkook said, put one of Tae's arms around the one side of his neck and the other arm on the other side.
