Falling in Love at a Coffee Shop || Jikook [COMPLETE]

Chapter 6

Taehyung looked up from his laptop when he heard the lock in his and Jungkook's front door turn. He scrambled up from his seat on the floor at the coffee table smile at the ready and in place to greet Jimin. But when Jungkook walked through the door and promptly closed it, it fell.

"Where's Jimin?"

Jungkook looked up at Taehyung standing from behind the coffee table in his pajamas and shook his head.

"What? No!" Taehyung complained with a whine.

Before Jungkook had a chance to clarify that Jimin was still coming but later, Taehyung was pocketing his wallet and pulling on his shoes.

"What are you doing?"

"Kidnapping Jimin."

Jungkook laughed.

"That's a bit unnecessary don't you think?"

Taehyung looked at Jungkook in disbelief and shook his head, "and you call yourself his best friend."

Jungkook shook his own head with a grin.

"Go sit your dramatic ass down. He is still working but will be over right after."

"Oh, well in that case." Taehyung slipped out of his shoes and tossed his wallet back on the table. "What movies do you want to watch tonight?"

"And just like that he's back to normal." Jungkook snickered slipping out of his own shoes.

"Whatever." Taehyung ignored Jungkook's jab used to Jungkook's teasing being friends for over a decade. "You're just jealous that I don't greet you as enthusiastically as I do him."

"Sure." Jungkook snorted walking into the kitchen off their living room and opened the fridge to grab water.

Jungkook closed the fridge door and looked at the pictures that were plastered all over it. Most of them were of just Taehyung and him through the years, but some were of Jimin and him, Taehyung and Jimin, the three of them, even Seokjin, Namjoon and Hoseok were interspersed throughout some of them. Jungkook tipped the bottle of water to his lips and pulled a long drink from it all the while staring at a particular picture placed at eye level on the freezer door. It was a picture of Jimin alone. One that Taehyung had taken for a school project Jimin acting as his model for the first time of many. Taehyung had somehow convinced Jimin to dye his hair bubblegum pink for the shoot too which Jungkook thought was crazy of Jimin to do for Taehyung being that he had just met Taehyung that week. The photo which was a sequence of shots of Jimin with his bubblegum pink hair and hand raised up reaching out beckoning you to take his hand finishing the sequence as if you were holding it was his favorite, that Taehyung shot of Jimin that day.

"One of my favorites." Taehyung said next to him. Jungkook didn't startle used to Taehyung popping up silently next to him over the years. "I still can't believe he let me dye his hair pink."

"Me neither." Jungkook chuckled. "You were very adamant about it to be fair though."

"And it paid off. The photos came out stunning." Taehyung glanced at Jungkook who was still staring at the photo. "Jimin was stunning that day."

"Mmhmm." Jungkook hummed in agreement.

Taehyung pursed his lips to keep from smacking his best friend upside the back of his head. He really didn't understand how Jungkook didn't see it. His feelings for Jimin. Granted he knows that Jungkook has absolutely zero dating experience in any way shape or form, other than the fact that he knew he preferred guys to girls, but still. How do you not recognize that you like someone. Or the fact that someone likes you. Taehyung knew that Jimin had a thing for his best friend. It was painfully obvious that Jimin liked Jungkook. Jungkook was the only one that hadn't caught on.
