Two Sides -Taekook (KookV)

7- Comfort

Pov. Jungkook

I sit on the bed completely naked with the cellphone on my hands and a smile on my face. One of my friends next to me is just as naked and a little confused.

- Sooo... should I leave, Kook?

- Hmm? Why?

- Because we fucked two minutes ago and you're already with your cellphone!

- I'm just answering a text! One second!

- You literally finished faster so you could answer!

- N-No I didn't...- Jaebum raises an eyebrow -...Okay, maybe I did. Sorry, I'll make it up to you!

- ...You got another text

- Really?!

- No, I just wanted to see you smile like an idiot. Now tell me who's making our playboy lose focus on playing around. I haven't seen you this excited to talk to someone since...ever, actually.

- I'm not losing focus! I just... don't wanna leave him without answering! I finally got him to talk to me

- Ooh, someone you liked for a while? Who?

- You know who! Tae!

- Tae...Gucci?! Daaamn you like danger! And I thought you liked submissive people...

I roll my eyes and see he answered me. I text back without even realizing about my smile. I'm really enjoying talking to him. He's just as fun as he is in person and he keeps answering! This is more than I expected! We're finally friends! Yeeey!

- What the hell is that conversation, Jungkook?!

- Hey! Who gave you permission to read?!

- "Shut the fuck up, Jeon. I can't stand you" I thought you were flirting not fighting

- We're not fighting! It's a joke!

- A joke?...Kook, that guy is literally insulting you in every line he writes

- But he keeps texting, doesn't he? I think he's friendly

- Mhm, sure, whatever makes you happy

I don't feel affected by his sarcasm and after a few minutes I tell Tae I'll meet him at the races and leave my phone aside. I need to make it up to Jaebum anyways. If there's one thing I won't do is leave a friend alone when he's needy.

These days I realized Jimin was right. Tae can be scary on the outside but he's actually very kind! He doesn't show it directly but he has those secret attitudes with me. I can tell he never writes me while I'm working. And when it's overnight he goes "Okay, go to bed Jeon or your boss will kill you tomorrow. And I rather have the pleasure to kill you myself". Cute. So cute it might be the death of me.

At night I meet him again. At first everything is going great. I tell him about my new tattoo, which is hidden somewhere under my pants. And the flirting is always there. But out of nowhere he gets a phone call.

- Yes, baby?

I know it must be Jimin. But as he talks to him he turns serious. He leaves the place and I'm guessing his friend is having a hard day. It happens sometimes. Jimin has a weird relationship with his boss and every now and then calls Tae crying.

I'm not sure of what should I do while he's gone. My friends tell me to just enjoy the race and forget about him. But I can't. I miss him here.

Thankfully, he comes back only half hour later, with Jimin sharing his bike. Apparently they prepare a new race. One where only Jimin and his closest friends run.

- Tae, is everything okay?

He doesn't answer. He just stands there and looks at Jimin who is now with the rest of the racers using Tae's bike. I decide to stay by his side. Even if he's quiet. The race starts and I don't even look a it. I only stare at Tae who seems to be biting his lip, nervous. He always said Jimin shouldn't race while being sad. And that's exactly what he's doing now. 

It is then when I hear a loud scream. Tae takes no time in taking someone else's bike and going towards Jimin who's now on the floor. Of course I go behind him. Most people leave the place since this is an illegal race and we now have to call the ambulance. And why? Because Park Jimin just crashed. On the way to the hospital, Jimin is too sedated to talk. And Taehyung...

- Are you okay?

- I'm not the one with a broken leg, Jeon

- I know but...you look-

- I'm fine.

He's not. Don't ask me why but I can see he's just pretending to be strong. Pretending not to care too much. And all of that gets confirmed as soon as Jimin enters a room where Tae is not allowed in. He finally shows his real emotions.

- Fucking shit - He kicks one of the hospital walls - I knew he shouldn't run today. He couldn't run like that but I just...

It's mostly a mumble and I'm not sure what he's saying at all. But his hands are fists and he seems extremely tense.

- Tae...hey, it's not your fault okay? Come here...

He turns around, clearly refusing to cry and hugs me. His sensitive side is weird. He curses under his breath but he keeps hugging me like his life depends on it. And I don't move an inch. I just pet his back and whisper everything will be okay. I tell him I'll be here for him.

It feels... different. I never had a friend during my worst times except maybe Yugyeom. And none of them called me during their bad moments. So this is new. It's strange in the best kind of way. I think...I wanna be next to him for a long time and take care of him. But I'm not sure what this feeling is called...

Thursday of Jungkook falling for Tae. I hope you're having a great day!

The story about Jimin is written on the Yoonmin fanfic in case you're interested and didn't read it. But don't worry! You don't need to read it to understand this one!

See you soon tomorrow!
