The Fault In Romance

43

things went back to the way they were fairly quickly. jungkook's mother was doing a lot better, when she came back home taehyung decided to go home as well. none of them wanted him to leave but taehyung's parents have been away on trips for so long that when he heard they were coming back taehyung wanted to go home. he got to spend the whole day with his parents that he really treasured. 

it was another week of school, he had just finished a busy shift at work over the weekend and had lots of project to finish for school that he was not overly stressed over. what he was stressed over is how will jungkook treat him at school. does he want jungkook to show others that he likes him? or does he want jungkook to not show it? but then if they do get together where does that leave them with public affection? is this taehyung just overthinking?

taehyung was walking down the hallway to his locker to grab some of the books he got from the library as he needed to return them. "why do you have so many books?" jimin asked, looking at the list in taehyung's phone of books he needs to return. 

"I read at least one a night" the brunette replied, unlocking his locker. he gasped catching jimins attention. 

"what?" jimin said, moving next to taehyung to look in the locker. 

"this is not mine" taehyung frowned, picking up the jacket that was in his locker. 

"awww" jimin said, the brunette looked at him confused. 

"its jungkook's basketball jacket" jimin cooed, his eyes landing on the note that was in the locker. he grabbed it and handed it to taehyung. 

hi there my love. I want you to wear my jacket today, it is cold and the jacket is freshly washed and clean. it will keep you warm. if your free after classes today, meet me by my car. xx

taehyung felt his heart flutter at the note, he handed jimin everything he had in his hands and quickly put jungkook's jacket on him. jimin thought it was the cutest sight ever. 

"look, now we are twinning" jimin said, pointing to his own jacket that yoongi gave him. on the back it had yoongi's name on it and basketball number. 

"does this have jungkook's name on it and number?" taehyung questioned, turning around for jimin to look. 

"yup it has his name on it and the number 7" jimin squealed, thinking it was the cutest thing ever that jungkook wanted taehyung to wear his jacket. taehyung quickly grabbed his things back and they headed towards the library. 

"I wont lie though, I hate the looks im getting from people" taehyung mumbled to jimin who nodded. 

"I was like that as well when I first started dating yoongi. the confidence will grow, people are looking cause whenever you have that basketball jersey on it means your taken by the person that owns the jacket" jimin explained, taehyung nodded already knowing that was the case. 

"that is what confuses me, me and jungkook arent putting labels on it?" taehyung sighed, entering the library along with jimin. 

"yeah but no one else needs to know that. if someone goes up to jungkook and asks to go out for drinks, jungkook would say no cause he likes someone else and if someone asks who he would say you. he is proving to you he is loyal to you and only you. if someone came up to you and asked for your number what would you say?" jimin asked.

"I would say I like someone else sorry"

"exactly. jungkook is going to love seeing you in his jacket. they have basketball training they should have changed by now, after training they shower and get changed and the are going over the game that is coming up, we should go see them" jimin suggests after taehyung handed his books over, they both exited the library.
