LOVE HAS NO AGE ✔

Chapter 13

Next morning ~

Jungkook woke up first with a headache and found his waist grasped in a very tight hold, as if he would disappear if the hold loosened. He blinked a few times to get a clear view of the person, his heart beating rapidly at the thought of being used in his drunk state. As soon as he saw the person, he gasped loudly, seeing Taehyung so close to his face. He struggled to get out of the grip, but his movements only made Taehyung tighten his hold in his sleep. Jungkook sighed after trying several times, but his movements woke up Taehyung.

"What is it!? Why are you moving this much?" Tae said in his deep husky voice, sending a current along Jungkook's spine.

"I... Umm... I want to go," Jungkook stammered, his voice shaky.

After listening to this, Tae pulled Jungkook closer, now wrapping both hands around his waist, making Jungkook moan softly. "Ah!"

"Where do you want to go now? Wasn't last night enough for you to be away from me?" Tae said, his eyes showing a mix of anger and concern.

"I wa...nt to go to the bath...room... Tae," Jungkook stuttered, his body fully pressed against Taehyung's, their hearts beating rapidly as if running a marathon. Jungkook's hands were on Taehyung's shoulders, his legs entangled with Taehyung's, and Tae's movements caused his feet to brush against Jungkook's calf, making Jungkook realize he wasn't wearing anything below, adding to his sweating and numbing his body.

"Taehy..ung! Plea..se!!" Jungkook pleaded, his voice trembling.

Tae was observing every movement of Jungkook, how his eyes moved everywhere but at him, and how his hands tightly clutched Tae's shoulders. Tae was not fully conscious, behaving as if in a dream, but he came back to his senses when he heard someone knocking on the door.

"Taehyung! Are you awake?" Jimin called out, his voice concerned.

"Yes!! Jiminsii, I am awake," Tae replied, his voice still groggy.

"Okay! Then come out for breakfast and give painkillers to Jungkook. It's on the desk."

"Alright!" Tae responded, loosening his grip.

Jungkook rushed to the bathroom, leaving Taehyung craving his warmth and feeling empty after seeing his arms free. Tae wanted the warmth back, wanted his arms wrapped around that small body pressed to his chest, wanted his peace back. But then Tae realized how he had acted with Jungkook a few minutes ago. Guilt took over him as he watched the closed bathroom door, his heart heavy with regret.

Meanwhile, inside the bathroom, Jungkook's condition was not good. His head was aching severely, and realizing that he was only in a shirt in front of Taehyung made his condition worse. Jungkook looked at himself in the mirror; he looked like a mess with his hair disheveled and swollen eyes, and his face was swollen from drinking and oversleeping.

Jungkook sighed, looking at himself. The moments with Taehyung flashed in front of his eyes like a film, making his heart beat faster. He closed his eyes, feeling Taehyung's touch on his waist, the way his legs were entangled with him, and his hand on his own heart. It was a very calming and soothing touch, although Jungkook knew that he shouldn't be feeling like this for a man younger than him. But at that moment, he was craving Tae's touch on his body.

Jungkook prepared warm water for himself in the tub, then dipped his body into it and closed his eyes, letting his tears flow down his cheeks. He was terrified by the way his life was taking turns. He was tired of having romantic feelings for Taehyung, even after knowing that he was younger than him. He wanted to stop this and had started hating himself for these feelings. He wanted his life to go back to normal because he was scared that if Taehyung knew about this, he would distance himself. He could afford anything in his life, but letting Taehyung go away due to his mere feelings—no, Jungkook couldn't afford it at any cost.
