Tangled Desires (Taekook)

TWENTY ONE

The world slept after a hot day only to wake up to the clouds covering the morning sky. The sun was pushed back somewhere as the soft breeze danced welcoming the clouds. The smiles took the place of scowls on faces as people walked towards their work.

Sometime after the noon, Jungkook parked his car in front of the café only to walk inside. As always, his eyes travelled towards the coffee counter but he became confused when he found someone else in place of Taehyung one more time.

He checked his watch.

Taehyung should have been working here at this hour.

He walked ahead and stopped in front of the counter. The barista, Sun woo, looked up at the brunette smiling.

''Good afternoon.... what may I get you, Sir?''

''Where is Taehyung?'' He came straight to the point. The barista looked at the man perplexed before he composed himself.

''He is at leave, Sir.'' He informed making the other nod.

''Thank you.'' Jungkook smiled at the barista before walking out and driving towards the blonde's apartment slightly concerned.

Taehyung was working on his assignments sitting on the floor in the living room wearing a black tee shirt and comfortable shorts that exposed his honey legs.

Blonde hairs teased his eyelashes making him push them away with the back of his hand smearing a little blue colour on his forehead.

The cap of pen was held between his beautiful lips as he scribbled something at the corner of the painting while amber eyes shone with satisfaction.

The painting looked perfect.

Just the way he wanted.

The blonde was still admiring his work when the doorbell rung. He took a look at all the papers scattered around him before getting up and walking towards the door.

A look of surprise flashed on his face.

''Mr. Jeon?''

Jungkook looked at him with a raised eyebrow.

''I remember you giving me a nickname.'' He pointed suggestively. ''And why do you get so surprised every time I come here?'' He asked walking inside as the blonde left the door open and walked back.

''That's because I didn't expect you here at this hour, Koo.... you usually visits in the evening.'' He explained walking towards the living room.

Jungkook looked at the papers lying all over the floor, the paintings on the table and colours and other stationary scattered everywhere.

"I went to the cafe.... The other barista said you were at leave." The brunette explained still looking around the place before his eyes found Taehyung. "I got worried."

The blonde sat back on the floor crossing his legs which grabbed Jungkook's attention. He immediately removed his eyes and looked up at Taehyung who was already looking at him.

The blue colour on Taehyung's beautiful face made him smile.

"Worried? Why?"

The older male sat down on the couch as the blonde went back to work.

"Dunno.... I thought maybe you were ill or something." The brunette replied honestly. The blonde giggled without looking up at Jungkook.

"No Koo.... I just got so many assignments at once and the deadline is too tight." He explained picking up the pencil lying beside him. "That's why i took leave.... need to finish them in time."
