First Love

~Part 16~

He admired the cute face snuggled upto him & smiled. He traced those tiny moles with his fingers. Taehyung really looked like how he was when they last met, not even a small change. That cute pout is still on his face while sleeping. His hair was messed and he haven't even taken his specs off. Oh when did Taehyung got glasses? Okay, so that's a change.

Jungkook woke up few seconds ago and the first thing he saw after opening his eyes was the face of the man he always wanted to see. His Taehyung, tetehyung. The person who was his everything at one point of his life. He thought he was still dreaming until he pinched himself. He was shocked after realizing Taehyung is really sleeping beside him, hugging him tightly, & snuggling so close to him. But rather than freaking out, Jungkook felt warm, so warm after many years. His eyes filled with tears as he looked him.

Just when he was still going on admiring him, suddenly two hazel eyes stared right into his black ones. He got startled. Those eyes were piercing into his eyes, into his soul. He suddenly shivered, felt the need to crawl away and hide somewhere. But he froze. He couldn't even take his eyes away from the other. None of them speak, but simply stared at each other.

It was then suddenly Jungkook's phone started ringing. He tried to get up, but his whole body was locked in Taehyung's strong arms. He looked at Taehyung for a moment, sighed and said,

"Let me take this phone. It may be from work"

Oh work. Jungkook is grown up now. He has work. But what work? Where is he working? Is he a CEO? Is he carrying on his family business? Thousand questions were swirling in Taehyung's mind. He loosened his grip and Jungkook picked up the call.

"Hyung.. Oh yeah, I fell asleep... Oh no nothing, don't worry about that. I had a slight headache when I reached here and I don't know when I slept. I was with Jin hyung, he was helping me to get some rest..
What?...Oh no need to pick me up. I came here by my car. Yes. I will call you when I go back to my room. Don't worry hyung. Take care, Bye."

All this time, Taehyung was looking at him. Too many thoughts in his mind. Who is this hyung? And why did he care about Jungkook this much? Why is Jungkook talking to him so sweetly? Did he have a partner? Is he married? But wait.. He called him hyung.. Jungkook likes boys? WHAT!!?? But that's not possible. He clearly stated he is STRAIGHT years ago. May be it's his friend or senior.. His thought were running fast and wild. He didn't see the way Jungkook was looking at him. Those doe eyes were staring at him wondering how did they both end up here and why Taehyung is in this manor..

Taehyung too was thinking how Jungkook reached here, what connection he have with his family. It was sure that the boy didn't know it was Taehyung's family. He saw the shocked face of the younger.. So why was he here..

It was then it clicked for both of them. They suddenly whispered each others name like it was a question..

"You're the Kim Taehyung? Namjoon hyung's brother?"

"You're the Jungkook, Jin hyung always talks about?"

They both nodded at each others questions. Now everything became clear for each other. It's funny how fate plays it's game. They both were near to each other for all these years, but it took this long to finally find each other.

Both were lost in their worlds when suddenly they heard a knock at the door and saw Jin hyung standing there.

Jungkook became so nervous and flustered and jumped out of the bed.

"Jin hyung, for how long are you standing there. I fell asleep and just woke up. I'm sorry"

Taehyung on the other hand just stared at both of them. He was still processing everything. Jungkook was Jin hyung's cousin? Why did he never know about him having an elder cousin? His mind was so messed.

"Taehyung ah. This is my cousin.. More than a cousin, he is my brother, we are blood, the only family that I have. Jungkook, Jeon Jungkook! And Jungkook, this is my Taehyungie, Joon's brother, our maknae. I don't think I have to introduce more as I can see you both know each other more than I know. That's your story to share. I will wait for that. For now, just come with me. Let's eat."

Jungkook was relieved to hear that would be an understatement. He was freaking out inside thinking what Jin will say and how he will react. But he was so calm and understanding. He immediately hugged his hyung and mouthed a silent Thankyou. Jin hyung smiled at him and ruffled his hair while hugging him back.

Taehyung looked at the two. He don't know what all he was feeling. Shocked, surprised, jealous, happy, sad.. He was experiencing all those mixed feelings. He never expected to see his Kookie here, for his own family gathering. He never thought he is Jin's brother. And the scene in front of him.. He was feeling guilty, jealous, and sad. He suddenly remembered Namjoon and his relationship. The way Jin and Jungkook were hugging, smiling and exchanging such warm moments, he needed that too.. And as he have read Taehyung's mind, Jin suddenly called Taehyung to join the hug.
He immediately crushed Jin while looking at his Jungkookie. Both of them hugged their hyung while being lost in each others eyes.
