A Slave's Savior [A taekook mafia fan fiction]

Chapter 12

It had actually been the whole week, Tae talked to jungkook about giving hoseok some time to find out the truth. Jungkook spend the rest of the days by reading books that Tae bought for him, now the bookshelf was filled Outliers, The Gift of Imperfections & The Elements of Style and the kind of books.

Tae sent the driver to drop him home because he had some work left. He heard a knock on the door and told to come in. He saw Jungkook coming in with his backpack, behind him followed the driver. Tae glared at the driver, he had warned him not to take jungkook anywhere else than home.

The driver was sweating by now. "Sir, young master insisted.. "

"It's not his fault." Jungkook supported.

"You may leave." Tae said looking at the driver. He walked out after closing the door, giving both of them privacy as Jungkook came closer towards Tae.

"I told you not to come office?"

"Yeah."
Jungkook said placing his bag on the table, he shuffled through the things in his bag while Tae looked at him with a frown. Koo could see his expression changing from a frown to confusion as he placed the paper in front of him. That confused faced turned normal as he read through the paper. He finally raised his head to look at kook with a smile.

It was the result of Jungkook's test, he was the first in the whole class. His chest swell with proud and he looked up at Jungkook. He was still smiling like a bunny. ' Couldn't wait to tell his hyung ? ' Tae thought and stood up.

Jungkook bought the medal out from his shirt. Showing it to Tae. Tae placed his hand on his nape kissing him on the forehead.

'I'm soo proud of you.' Tae said.

But it wasn't enough for kook. He wanted something else. Some more love. He hugged Tae sneaking his arms around him. Tae smiled and hugged him back. He knew what he wanted, warmth and encouragement so he patted his back and jungkook closed his eyes resting his head on Tae's shoulder. They stayed in the position for a while.

'Don't you dare to come to office again.' is what Tae wanted to say. It was not a safe for him. But he wouldn't upset him. He knew Jungkook was not like others, one was needed to be understanding and logical for him to open up.

"Let's go home." Tae said with his boxy smile.

Jungkook nodded.

They came home and jungkook pecked Tae's cheeck before hopping out from the car. Tae saw him running inside the house, his heart beating fast. When he pecked kook's cheeck he thought nothing in the world could compare the softness, but his lips, they were just..

"Boss, want me to park the car?" The guard knocked half open glass of the window.

"Yeah."
Tae jumped down from the car, following jungkook.

Jungkook entered his room and threw his bag on the table and himself on the bed. He stared at the ceiling thinking about how flustered his hyung was when he kissed his cheeck. Tae would've never expected anything in return, but getting a peck on the cheeck would probably be enough for him, for everything he had done for Jungkook.

"Kookie~ fresh up and let's have the lunch." He heard Tae yell in the living room.

"Okay" He replied getting up from the bed.

They had the lunch and planned on spending some time together.
Tae was sitting on the sofa with his file.

"Hyung?"

Taehyung looked up at him.
"Hn."

"I... I...wanted to. "

Tae took his hand and made him sit beside him. He turned to face him and said: "go on.. "

"It's Jimin hyung's birthday.."

"So.. "

"I want to gift him something."

"You know what he likes?"

"A watch.. maybe."

"Hmm. Then order one." Tae said.

"I..I don't know."

"Pardon?"

"I don't know how to order online." Kook looked at Tae with his bambi eyes.

He laughed at his expression.

Jungkook bited his lower lips, he knew Tae would find him stupid, who doesn't knows online shopping in this time, such a fool he was. His eyes turned watery. He didn't care if someone was laughing at him. It was just that someone being his hyung.

He was stuck in between the 'don't show any signs of weakness' and 'crying doesn't makes you any weaker' thing.

Tae suddenly stopped laughing when he noticed his state and cupped his face.

"Hey.. " Tae smiled at him.
"it's okay.. we'll learn together bun." He said ruffling his hair.

Tae took jungkook phone and opened it handing it back to him, still holding his cheeck with one hand. Jungkook stared at him blankly with a pout. Taehyung couldn't resist that, he placed his thumb on his lips, feeling their softness, shooing the pout away.

"I laughed because you look adorable." He stated still staring at his lips. He wondered if he could ever kiss them, how soft they would feel moulding on his. They would surely taste like the strawberry lipbalm Tae had bought for him.

Jungkook realised what he was staring at, he shifted on his position. His eyes on Tae, those eyes, there was nothing he could be more afraid of.
He knew what they wanted. It was the peck that might have evoken the emotions in Tae, he should've never kissed him in the first place. Jungkook thought.

Tae looked at him, now that Jungkook was backing away.
"Is this the strawberry lipbalm I bought?" He looked up at looks eyes. His mafia instinct was good in making things up, you can say.

"Y-yeah" Kook said.

"It looks lovely on you." Tae said leaving his face and making himself comfortable on the sofa.

Jungkook looked down at the phone and he swiped through it, why does he always have to be this stupid? Why does he always think stupid things while Taehyung only wants to help him selflessly. Jungkook thought.

I always use that strawberry and peach?

Fine, someone tell me the name of lipbalm flavours other than strawberries and peaches.
