Kim Taehyung likes to watch and judge people's lives from his safe haven. One side of his beautiful, neat flat, overlooks a small park, but the back face, the people watching face, that is where all the interesting stuff happens. Today, he is watchi...
It's Sunday morning and Taehyung knows that Jungkook is going to visit Sunny. They had another great evening together last night. There was lots of laughter and quite a lot of kissing, but Taehyung didn't try to take it any further this time. He's just so happy that Jungkook is really starting to relax with him.
As he waits outside his building just as he did a week ago, he sees Jungkook coming towards the door, but this time as soon as he's outside Jungkook says,

'Tae? This is a nice surprise. I wasn't expecting to see you this morning, how come you're here?'
'I was up and I wanted to see you.'
Jungkook smiles.
'Why don't you come with me?'
'No, thanks, I think you and Sunny will have plenty to talk about without me cramping your style. I'd love to come next week though, if I'm invited.'
'Yeah, definitely, I'm sure Sunny would love to see you again...hey, we could go on my bike,' Jungkook suggests enthusiastically.
Taehyung looks alarmed.
'I'm not going on that deathtrap!'
'What?! Don't you trust me?'
Oh shit, Taehyung thinks, it's another test.
'Of course I do, I'm sure you're a great rider, but do you even have a spare helmet?'
'No, but you can have mine and I'll go without, that will guarantee I'll ride extra carefully.'
'Absolutely not! I died a thousand deaths when you rode off that time without a helmet.'
'Did you?'
'Yes! I sat and waited until you got back. I was a total mess, I was so worried.'
Jungkook appears moved by this news.
'I'd no idea that you even noticed.'
'Well I did.'
'Oh...but still, you should come on the bike with me. It'll be good for you.'
He says it in a slightly challenging way.
'What do you mean?' Taehyung asks suspiciously.
'Oh, you know, it'll push you outside your comfort zone, stretch you so that you experience something extraordinary.'
Taehyung recognises his own words being used against him.
'Ok, I'll think about it,' he finally says, 'but not without a helmet for both of us.'
'Well, it will have to wait then, because I can't afford to buy a new one.'
'Never mind, I can drive us until then,' Taehyung says cheerfully.
