"Let's take this", Taehyung says picking up the glycerin face mask. It is Wednesday. The night of the sleepover at Hoseok's. Taehyung and Jeongguk after coming from school asked permission from their parents, packed up and right away they went to the convenience store. Jeongguk was following the blonde as he was picking up snacks and face masks.

"Face masks?", Jeongguk wondered what the sleepover might be curious about now. Seeing the face masks he secretly wished he didn't join some girly twerks group who have sleepovers painting each other's nails.

"Yep. It's your first time don't sweat it you'll get used to it", The elder shrugged walking past the aisle to pay.

"I'll pay", Jeongguk announced taking his wallet but stopped seeing the blonde glare at him giving his money to the girl.

"We're celebrating your joining so please close your wallet and follow me"

Jeongguk smiled soft following Taehyung. He extended his hand to carry the bag but Taehyung moved away from him.

"Come on, I'll carry it", Jeongguk offered, and before another word could spill out the elder gave the plastic bag to him.

"Does Jimin and Hobi Hyung knows we're buying this? What if we have doubles?", Jeongguk shot out while Taehyung stopped a cab and got in the back seat followed by brunet placing the plastic bag in middle separating the two. Taehyung gave in the address to the cab driver.

"Jimin has shopping duty while Hobi Hyung is on dinner duty. Once again Jungkookie, don't sweat about it. Just relax and enjoy the evening, okay?", Taehyung asks looking at Jeongguk waiting for his answer. The younger nodded and leaned back looking out the window.

"You like sightseeing", The blonde uttered smiling to himself. The brunet heard and turned to Taehyung and saw him looking out the window.

"Well, I got used to it. Back in Busan, Yugyeom and I chat while going to school but when he moved away. I didn't have many friends who were interested in talking to me", Jeongguk spoke his voice tiny as if speaking a little would break everything he kept in, and was afraid Taehyung could see how a mess he is.

"Jungkook, what happened in Busan is to be left there. Now, you have a few friends who are interested in being your friend and not only that, did you already forget that you're my competition in our school?", Taehyung comforted the younger making the atmosphere light while Jeongguk lightly laughed at what the elder was implying.

"Does that mean You accept me as your competition?", Jeongguk teased laughing when the blonde rolled his eyes.

"You can say, I'm considering it", The elder says looking smiling teasingly at the brunet.

"Woah, I thought after you drooled seeing me half naked, that you actually changed your mind", Jeongguk continued taunting the elder. He hid a smile seeing the elder's ear turn red his face was flustered and he choked on his saliva.

"I-I was just seeing", Taehyung stuttered looking away and feeling the surroundings turn a little hot as he imagined the half-naked body of Jeongguk. Suddenly, He remembered imagining Jeongguk on the bed legs spread. He could see his abs and biceps and he wanted to die as he was dreaming about the guy sitting next to him.

The cab driver stopped the car indicating their arrival. Taehyung quickly paid the driver before the younger and got out. Jeongguk followed him as he walked fast not wanting to see the brunet.

Jeongguk's eyes furrowed at the change of mood in Taehyung and he looked flustered. He thought that the elder was still feeling awkward about what he said. "Tae, are you Okay?"
