Taehyung P.O.V.


It was dark inside, just small rays of deemed light from the outside letting me see those hazel eyes staring right at me. My heart was beating so fast that I was afraid it would fall out of my chest. I tried to control my breathing, but the sweat in the palms of my hands showed my real nervousness.

"Hyung, have I ever told you about my older brother?" Jungkook's voice resonates in the narrowed space, although he was just whispering.

"No, you haven't. Why?" I asked in a murmur.

"Well, he's around Jin's age and he's also overprotective" he chuckled as if he remembered him. I nodded although I wasn't sure he could see me. "But he hasn't talked to me since I debuted" he said. His voice was calm but tinged with sadness. "He wanted me to have an ordinary life, far from gossip and the media, but I didn't listen to him. I couldn't give up my dream to be a musician. He wouldn't talk to me since then, not even if me or my parents begged him".

"I'm sorry" I said, and I really was.

"Don't need to, hyung. I just wanted to tell you about it". He said with a faint smile. We were close as the space was very limited. Our feet touching while we had our backs leaning on the wood.
"Why?" I asked him. "Why did you want to tell me?"

"Because I want you to know that I trust you too. I want you to know me better and to know one of the deepest and saddest parts of my life too". He whispered. I felt like my heart stopped beating, my breathing hitched at his words. He moved from his position and came closer, his doe eyes shining in the dark. He laid one hand on my lower back, making me stand stiff straight. His other hand rested in my waist. I hold my breath, feeling his fanning my lips from the closeness.

"Kook-ah" was all I could utter in a whisper.

"Taehyung-ah, I really, really like you". He muttered as his thumb rubbed calming circles on my lower back. I closed my eyes at his words, not being able to look at the dark orbs staring right at me. He made my heart flutter and in my stomach I felt a crescent warmth and butterflies. I moved my lips to speak but a finger was soon on them.

"Shh" he shushed me. I opened my eyes and couldn't help but find him sexy. "Just tell me, do you like me back?" He asked. I stood there with my mind trying to decide whether to say the truth or just lie to him and to myself. I was tempted to lie and end everything here and now, but I knew Jungkook deserved at least my honesty.
I took a deep breath and just followed my heart for the first time in my life.

"I do" I answered, looking him in the eyes. I felt how his thumb stopped and saw he blink in disbelief, as he wasn't expecting me to give in so easily.

"You do? As like, like me?" he asked dumbfounded. I smirked at the cute sight of him.

"What? You think I kiss anyone in my bed every now and then?" I said jokingly. He snorted and I smiled.

"I hoped you didn't" he chuckled. I decided on sliding my arms in his narrow waist, bringing him closer. He opened his eyes in surprise.

"I like you" I said as I kissed his forehead. "I like you a lot" I continued as I pecked his nose and both cheeks. I gained a giggle from him and my heart just melted.

"Almost three minutes left! You better finish sucking dicks soon!" Yelled Jimin from somewhere out there. I felt how my ears and neck flushed red and I could see Jungkook wasn't doing any better. He looked at me and something in his eyes changed. A naughty smirk forming in his lips.
