PLAY ON- Taekook

24

I was faced with yet another very peaceful morning, as my phone's alarm pierced through my ears. I groaned, moving my hand to snooze it but feeling a weight on me, making it difficult. I looked down to see Taehyung's head rested on my chest, his arms wrapped around my bare torso. A small chuckle left my lips as I turned off the alarm. As much as I wanted to stay here and cuddle with him, we had a match this morning. My hand reached down to shake him lightly.

"Taehyung. Wake up." I made sure not to raise my voice too loud. He stirred, rubbing his eyes before looking up at me. I gave him a mischievous smirk. As soon as his brain registered what was going on, he immediately pushed me off, causing me to land on the ground with a thud.

"You've caused me more injuries in the past twenty four hours than i've received this entire year." I rubbed my head, which was aching due to the fall.

"Why would you cuddle me?" His eyes looked panicked as he watched me from on top of the bed.

"I cuddled you?" I gazed at him dumbfounded.

"Yes. Yes you did." He groaned, getting off the bed and putting his slippers on.

"Last time I checked, it was you with your arms around me." I got up and he stopped in his tracks, turning around, blushing furiously . "Why's your face always red, do we need to take you to the doctor?" I teased, leaning against the wall next to me.

"Shut up Jeon." He stormed into the bathroom, slamming the door behind him. I chuckled, heading to the cabinets to get my uniform. Once Taehyung was outside, I went into the bathroom to get dressed and clean up.

A little while later, the two of us walked down to the breakfast area to meet up with the rest of the team. "Good morning everyone, let's get a healthy breakfast to keep us energized. It's a big day." Coach Park seemed to be in a good mood, telling us all to move along and eat.

"You guys look more horrible than usual." I laughed as I noticed Jaehyun and Jackson. Their hair was a mess and their eyes were bloodshot.

"How are you functioning? You drank more than us." Jackson groaned, rubbing his head.

"I had a very kind roommate to help me out." I smiled as I thought of last night.

"You guys made up?" Jaehyun asked, his voice tired as he piled a bunch of bacon onto his plate.

"No. He still calls me 'Jeon' instead of 'Kook' but we're on the right track." I placed a few eggs and potatoes onto my plate before I turned around to look for a table.

I noticed Taehyung sitting alone and I signaled for my two friends to follow me. The three of us sat down at his table, to which he looked up surprised. His expression quickly turned sour as he put down his fork "What are you assholes doing here?"

"Having breakfast." I answered flatly, picking up my spoon.

"You're looking a bit angry this morning." Jaehyun gestured towards Taehyung, leaning back on his seat with an amused expression despite his throbbing headache.

"Because i'm stuck here with you morons for the next eight days." Taehyung shoved some pancake into his mouth.

"Words can hurt." Jackson pouted. Jaehyun and I chuckled in return. Taehyung continued to eat his breakfast in silence, ignoring us.

"Anyways, how did you cure Jungkook? Please share your secrets, oh wise one." Jackson clasped his hands together, begging.

"Trust me. You don't want to go through the torture I went through."

"Oh shut up it wasn't that bad." Taehyung rolled his eyes, standing up to refill his plate. "Follow me."

Jaehyun and Jackson stood up and went behind Taehyung. I quickly cleared my plate before following them. We walked up to one of the chefs behind the glass walls.
