"There's nothing for us to talk about Jungkook." Taehyung insisted but the look in his eyes gave him away because he had a curious glint resting there as soon as Jungkook spoke. Before Jungkook could respond he tugged away his arm and picked up the paperwork.

Jungkook just sank back down into the seat and sat silently while fiddling with his hands, not daring to look up at Taehyung. That was until he heard the sound of Taehyung moving around the room. His eyes darted to his figure and he watched as Taehyung was writing away at the papers and he realised that now he would have no excuse to try and see Taehyung and try to make up with him. So he stood up and walked over to Taehyung.

Taehyung heard Jungkook moving around but he thought that he might just be looking at the deigns on the walls. So it shocked him when he felt two arms wrap around his waist. A shiver went down his spine when he felt Jungkook move his body closer. He tried to unwrap Jungkook's hands but when he tried they only tightened around him.

He sighed and turned around to face Jungkook. When he looked into his eyes he saw that there was an underlying sadness in them. He slightly recoiled when Jungkook stuffed his head in the gap between his head and shoulder.

Taehyung patted Jungkook's back as a signal to let go but it just made him tighten his hands grip on Taehyung. Taehyung realised that Jungkook wouldn't be letting go of him anytime soon. So he wrapped his arms around Jungkook as well and kept patting his back until Jungkook was going to back away.

Jungkook lifted his head and looked in Taehyung's eyes with a small pout on his face when he saw the unbothered look on Taehyung's face. He slightly pulled away but made sure that his arms were still tightly wrapped around Taehyung.

"Taehyung, please I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to react like that I just spaced out and forgot where I was and who I was with" Jungkook cried. Taehyung was speechless. He didn't think that this would affect Jungkook this way. He just patted Jungkook's back.

"I know you are sorry and I know you didn't mean to pull away like that but it upset me that you reacted that way to me and it made me feel unwanted" Taehyung explained and it made Jungkook tear up even more.

"I'm so sorry, I will never do it again, I swear" Jungkook pleaded.

Taehyung just nodded before Jungkook pulled him into another hug. "Just let me get my head back to normal before we start hanging out again" Taehyung stated and Jungkook could do nothing but nod as whatever Taehyung said would be a way to allow them to be friends again.

Even though Taehyung said that Jungkook should give him space he still let him cling to him, not having the heart to break them both apart yet.

However when he heard the alarm on his phone go off he realised that he needed to get Jungkook off him. Jungkook slowly let go of him, with the slight pout on his face. He started to walk out of the room before turning round to Taehyung and giving him a slight wave and turns back around again, walking away.

A couple minutes since Jungkook left Taehyung finally made his way out of his studio. He waddled up to Yoongi who was sat behind the desk on his phone. He saw Yoongi's head tilt to the side, acknowledging that he was there, before a hand was lifted in front of him. Looking at the hand he saw Yoongi was holding a piece of paper.

Taking it into his own hands Taehyung opened it and saw that Jungkook's number was scribbled on it. Not knowing whether to screw it up and throw it in the bin or use it, Taehyung folded it up and put it in his pocket for when he next had a break. He pushed it to the back of his head, waving over his customer who was sat on their phone waiting.

Once he was done with that appointment Taehyung sat down in the reception, taking a deep breathe, and closed his eyes. His mind hadn't had time to relax all day and he was starting to feel the after effects of it. Deciding that he didn't want to stay still any longer he decided to get up and have a walk around the block.

The wind against his face felt like a breathe of fresh air, which unironically it was, as he walked along a random path to an unknown location. He found himself at a park that he realised to only be a couple roads away from the parlor. Finding the closest free bench he sat down and had a look at all of the people that seemed so happy with their lives, or at least managed to act like their problems weren't bothering them.

He wished he could be like them, so carefree. He hadn't felt like that since the carnival. He sighed. He was still unsure about whether to message Jungkook or not. He knows he over reacted but it hurt him to think that Jungkook, even on reflex, would react like that to him. Taehyung was purely just upset.

Jungkook had been making it up to him, and it would be a lie if Taehyung said that he didn't like Jungkook clinging to him. He pulled the piece of paper out from his pocket and looked at the number written on it. Going back and forth in his mind Taehyung decided to act on what his gut was telling him to do.

"Hey Jungkook... do you want to hang out?"
