Fallen (Taekook)

CH 6 - Date With An Angel

It was 6:45 pm and Jungkook was panicking. He had styled and restyled his hair multiple times, changed his outfit four times, and was now indecisive about what shoes to wear.

"Damn, why didn't I find out more about where we're going?" Jungkook mumbled. His roommate lounged on Jungkook's bed watching him and stifled a laugh.

"Dude, you look good. Chill out." Jungkook's roommate, Yeonjun, was a fashionista and let Jungkook borrow a patterned, button-up shirt. He also helped Jungkook pick out some black, skinny jeans and Chelsea boots.

Jungkook heard his phone chime and his eyes grew big. Yeonjun chuckled at his friend but as he watched Jungkook seemingly unable to move, he placed a hand on his shoulder.

"Why are you so stressed? It's not like you haven't dated before." Yeonjun was roommates with Jungkook for over a year and had seen him go on many dates, including a couple of times when they doubled. However, he had never seen him this tense over a date before.

"Come downstairs and meet him. Then you'll understand why I'm stressing. He's literal perfection." Jungkook turned to his friend, his eyes were huge and a blush was creeping up his neck.

"Ok, I will. Come on, can't wait to see Mr. Perfect." Yeonjun grabbed Jungkook's arm and pulled him towards the door. "No one is worth getting this worked up over. If anything, he should be the one panicking over going out with you."

They walked down the stairs and stepped out into the warm evening air. The street was bustling and the sidewalk crowded. Pulled up along the curb was a large, black SUV. The two roommates watched as the window rolled down and a gorgeous man smiled broadly at Jungkook.

"Holy shit," Yeonjun muttered loud enough for Jungkook to hear. "I guess you weren't kidding."

As the two approached the vehicle, the door opened and Taehyung stepped out. He was wearing dark slacks and a crimson button-up. He looked resplendent as he stood smiling at the two younger men. Reaching out a hand to Yeonjun, he introduced himself. "Hello, you must be Yeonjun. Jungkook mentioned that he had a roommate. I'm Kim Taehyung, it's nice to meet you."

Yeonjun grabbed the angel's hand and held onto it as he stood there seemingly transfixed. The angel's smile broadened as he pulled his hand back. "Did you want to come with us?"

Jungkook elbowed his roommate in the ribs. "Um, maybe some other time. But thank you. It's nice to meet you. I'm sure we'll meet again and maybe talk then or something." Yeonjun rambled on and had to mentally restrain himself from smacking his own forehead.

Jungkook climbed into the back of the SUV with the angel and the two waved goodbye to Yeonjun. As the car pulled away, Taehyung turned his full attention to Jungkook. "You look nice."

"Thanks," Jungkook said, as he felt his face heat up. "I never asked, but where are we going tonight?"

"I hope you're hungry, because we're going to MOSU for the chef's tasting course." Taehyung watched as his date's eyes grew even bigger.

"I'm underdressed," Jungkook stated. He had heard of the restaurant and thought that it was the kind of place that required a suit and tie. "How did you even manage to get reservations? I heard the waitlist is months long."

Taehyung turned to the younger man and smiled. "First off, you're dressed perfectly." Taehyung looked Jungkook up and down. He really did look great, the tight jeans clung to his legs, showing off his incredible thighs. Taehyung lost his train of thought for a second as he stared down at Jungkook's legs until Jungkook cleared his throat. Looking back up at the young man he added, "The chef at MOSU is a friend of mine. So he reserved me seats."
