My Best Friend | Jikook / Vmin FF

Jiminie

As soon as Jimin entered Jungkook's apartment he flung himself softly on his favorite couch looking for comfort. It was his next best comfortable piece of furniture, next to Jungkook's smooth cloud-like bed.

As he lay on the couch, he felt an arm around him as Jungkook settled behind him, resting his head on his shoulder. They hadn't spoken a word throughout the drive. But Jimin just wanted to be in that silence for some more time and it was like Jungkook wasn't getting impatient for a conversation either. They laid there for sometime and Jimin finally shifted a bit feeling a bit better when Jungkook finally said.

"You okay?"

"Mhhmmm"

Jimin turned to look at Jungkook who was looking back softly at him.

"I'm sorry I've been so distant."

"It is okay, it was unusual but it's just been a day or so." Jungkook said with a tight smile.

Jimin thought about it, it had really been only two days since all shit went down. Taehyung had resigned, was leaving the country, he confessed his feelings and Jimin lied to Jungkook to save Taehyung from whatever shit he was doing that night in the office.. He fought with Taehyung over everything and Taehyung, well, he had a bad timing with his revelation. And Jimin had avoided Jungkook all this time.

"Aren't you mad at me?" Jimin asked in a small voice.

"Why would I be? You right out asked me for some time away, I would be such a bad person if I can't respect your space, hyung!"

He hardly called him hyung. He was being careful and considerate. What has he done to deserve him!

"Jungkook-ah, we need to talk."

Jungkook gulped.

"Oh okay? Sure, we'll talk. But not before changing into something cozy and comfortable and getting something to eat. I'm starving. Come on!"

They sat on the dining table after an hour long bath taken by Jimin, when Jungkook reminded him to continue sharing what he wanted to share. Jimin got time to focus on what he wanted to talk about first.

"Did you know about Tae's resignation?"

Jungkook cleared his throat. "Umm I was told very recently. He had requested discretion so I didn't mention it."

"And still, Seokjin hyung told you."

"He had to. It's my department, hyung."

Jimin nodded. "But you should have still told me."

"We assumed that maybe it was you he wanted discretion from, hyung. I knew you didn't know because you didn't mention it to me. If he didn't tell you, he must have had a reason. And if you knew and didn't tell me, I would understand you'd have a reason for that too.."

"I didn't know. I got to know and it threw me off."

"Oh! Did you guys talk through it then?"

"Not fully, not yet. He wants to leave the country. We are fighting."

Jungkook looked at him with concern.

"Don't stress too much, hyung. Just talk to him, yeah?"

"Yeah. Can I sleep here tonight though?"

"You seriously feel the need to ask?"

Jimin laid next to Jungkook and the younger man waited for Jimin to settle. He wasn't sure if he wanted him to cuddle him or leave him alone.

"Spoon me?" Jimin whispered, Jungkook barely heard him.

"Mhmm.." Jungkook immediately spooned him from behind.
