Eternally Everlasting | Prequel

(10) Cashmere and courting

Third Person's POV

Jungkook's nervous. Fuck, he's more than nervous. This will be his first date and not only is it just a date, but it's with possibly the most wonderful man Jungkook's ever met. So that makes him even more nervous. But, it's only coffee at the cafe down the street, right? No need to be nervous. Jungkook's hung out with this boy plenty of times. Granted, it was mostly in the company of Jimin and Hoseok. Now it will be just them.

This will be the third time they've tried to do this, hang out together away from their friends. At first, Jungkook was way confused. Why would such an amazing person want to go on a date with him?

Yoongi was the one who had told him, he does work with the guy, so he sees him every day, and he talks to him every day. Jungkook didn't believe him at first when he told him Taehyung had a crush. But soon enough, plans for a movie were made. Jungkook was able to get out of that easily, along with the second. But he knew he'd have to go sooner or later.

And it's not like Jungkook doesn't want to go, he does very much. A date with the most beautiful human being known to man? Hell yes. He doesn't want to make a fool of himself, though. He has a feeling this boy is only so persistent because he wants to get laid. Yes, Jungkook knows he's attractive, but that's not him, hooking up, no relationships.

Deep down he knows that's not the case at all.

He just can't bring himself to admit it.

Jungkook half expects him to be late, and that he'll have to sit there for a while, alone, and then will be expected to still go home with him. But to his surprise, he's met with those bright hazel eyes as he steps up outside the cafe that's just a block down, and it's still before 8:30.

"Hyung" He says quietly.

"Jungkook, you came" Taehyung says back cheerily, wrapping Jungkook up in a tight hug.

To Jungkook, he seems too happy just to get coffee, especially on this almost rainy, gloomy day. But then again, Taehyung's always been a cheerful guy. Jungkook hugs back, smiling at the nice smell of Taehyung's fringe which is in his face.

"Why wouldn't I?" Jungkook could think of a few reasons, pathetic yes, as to why he wouldn't come out with Taehyung.

Taehyung is looking up at him with one eyebrow raised, like he's trying to figure something out. Jungkook blushes, ducking his head and smiling. Without realising, his hand comes up to ruffle his curls around, a nervous habit, but then he feels the scarf and almost scowls at himself.

"Is that Cashmere?" Taehyung asks in disbelief, reaching up and feeling along the fabric.

"Oh my gosh"

"Um- yeah it is" Jungkook's eyes locked with Taehyung's.

"Coffee then" Taehyung says after a few moments.
