TAEKOOK ONESHOTS COLLECTION

° Play Pretend pt.1

TAEHYUNG'S POV

(a/n: lower case intended because i just like it)

i'm currently scrolling down my gallery because i'm bored as fuck. it's sunday today so there's really nothing to do besides on lying on my old damn coffin-smelled ass bed. i just scrolled, and scrolled and- oh, look what we have here. it's a picture of me and my partner 'n crime, slash childhood crush and also best friend, jeon jungkook. i really don't get if he's really an idiot or just ignorant that up until now he still don't know i like him, after all these years we've been like sticked together. 10 fucking years, bro.

he's like, the most sweetest, caring and cheesiest person i've ever met, especially when he's in love. like, god, he sucks. yes, he's into girls. maybe that's why he can't see how much i'm into him. what is it? have i tried confessing my feelings? hell no. action speaks louder than words, and he, out of all the people, should know that because we're best buddies. but he can really be pretty stupid sometimes, maybe that's why.

he sucks on giving attention to people because once he get to like this one thing, he'll neglect all the other comments about that specific thing, either negative or positive ones, get what i mean? but still, i like that idiot excused as a human being-

"t-tae.."

i immediately sat up when i heard his voice. i found him standing by the door, his hands on the doorknob, eyes brimming with tears.

"why the hell are you cry-" i was interrupted when he suddenly jumped on me and hugged me tight, burying his face on my neck and cried like a fucking five years old. who the hell made him cry like this?

"hey, what happened? tell me gguk, i'll listen." i said as i softly caressed his back. he sniffed as he detached himself from me. i only stared at him as he wipe off his tears. oh god, such a crybaby.

"i-it's l-lia... s-she- she broke u-up with m-me." with that, he started sobbinh again. what. the. fuck.

"stop crying, will you? lia should be the one crying right now, not you. It's her big loss." i said as i gave him the comfort action he needs, but not the words. remember, i suck with that.

"b-but i loved her! she can't just broke up with me just because i caught her flirting with the team captain of basketball." he sobbed. i gave him the 'are you serious?' look before speaking.

"seriously gguk, for a 20 years old well dressed walking wall who always tops the class even from preschool, you're dumb. you're a walking idiot who lacks luck when it comes to love-"

"ow!" i was stopped with a smack on the knee. he glared at me while i look at him with hurt expression.

"you don't need to slap it off my face." he pouted.

"i wasn't even finished yet-"

"yeah, i'm gonna leave now. thanks for the help." he sarcastically rolled his eyes and was about to walk out my room when i grab his wrist and pulled him back to my bed.

"i was just joking, but not with the part that you act like a 5 months old baby." my baby. heck, says the one who hates being cheesy.

"5 months old babies still don't talk!" he whined, glaring at me. seriously, i really thought he's a top- oops, did i said it out loud? because i'm a bottom, ok tmi mate.

"my point is, you should stop crying over girls who breaks up with you for a stupid reason. They're not worth your tears, sweetie." i said. he just bit his lower lip as silence surrounds us and i just have to be there to watch him do something sinful that i will carry as a memory for the rest of my life.

"but out of all the girls i loved, lia was the only one who stayed for like, 1 year. i can't lose her now, we were perfect with each other!" he demanded. are you still going to say that when we try being together? i bet we look more perfect with each other.

"look gguk, she's just a person so don't make her your world. stop this nonsense and try to focus on different stuffs." i said, already getting enough of him ranting about these girls he loved. i felt insulted, and a coward, because i can't be one of those girls he talks about once they broke up.

"please tae, help me with this and i promise i'll make your meal for one whole month! pleaseee!" he pleaded as he gave me his adorable puppy eyes no one can resist. fuck my life.

"Fine, strawberry milkshake every time i want too!" i demanded, and there's the idiot who nodded abruptly like a dumbass dog.

"the plan is easy. we're just going to pretend to be boyfriends so she can get jealous and would want me back." OKAY WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK.

"hey tae! let's go inside now?" jungkook cheerfully greeted taehyung while the said one only nod, but was startled when jungkook intertwined their hands.

"are you serious right now?" taehyung immediately asked, even though a part of him doesn't really want jungkook to let go.

"we're boyfriends, rememberrrr?" jungkook said playfully, emphasizing the word 'boyfriends'.

fucking fuck me already, taehyung thought as his mind goes roller coaster. he really thought jungkook was straight as a pole but why the heck is he like, feeling exited with this fake boyfriends thing? BoYfRiEndS to be specific, like, for pete's sake, it's gayyyyy to pretend being boyfriend with your best friend.

jungkook was happily swinging their intertwined hands while walking through the hallway with taehyung. half of the attention of the students were on them as long as they pull up their little scheme in school, and the stares made taehyung a bit uncomfortable. he's not used to be the center of attention.

"what's wrong?" jungkook asked, noticing how taehyung's shoulder fell down and how he would stare at the ground while they walk. he knew it's not taehyung's thing to act like this, because the taehyung he met would be very cheerful to start his day. a very contagious happy pill to be exact.

taehyung looked up at jungkook and then shrugged. he straighten up his posture as he slightly tighten his grip on jungkook's hands then continued on his way. jungkook slightly frowned at this. he looked around and that's when he knew what actually was wrong.

"does this make you uncomfortable, tae?" jungkook asked as he tighten his grip on taehyung's hand as well. taehyung just chuckled as he look at their path.

"yeah, maybe." he simply uttered. he knows he was being used, he knows jungkook was only using him to get his ex-girlfriend back yet he doesn't want it to end. in fact, taehyung didn't even complain. oh how he wish jungkook would notice how he was the definition of 'what are you willing to do?' because this thing they're doing is pretty stupid.

"i'm so sorry tae, but this is the only way i can think of. i want her back, i need her back. and the plan won't be believable when we don't hold hands, like, they'll think we're just two best friends hanging out, you get what i mean?" jungkook said.

right, ouch. taehyung thought.

"and this is a pretty normal thing for the both of us, right? you can always say if it makes you uncomfortable then we'll stop, but i still need to know the reason. it can't be that... you're attracted to me, right?" this made taehyung's heartbeat almost stop. he snapped his head to jungkook with such disgusted face, a bit hurt too.

"what the heck, jeon? you wish. i can be attracted to anyone but not you for the love of god." lies. this made jungkook crack up, even though he felt something inside him crack as well.

"you sure you're not gay?" jungkook smirked at taehyung, teasing him even more, and taehyung knew he was caught off guard. he can feel his cheeks getting hot.

"o-of course not,"
