Me, Myself, and Jikook (Jikook Oneshots)

Enlistment

"Jungkookie, how did you manage to swing this?  I thought for sure we would wind up in different bootcamps," Jimin reread his enlistment letter in awe.  "And Jin will be there too?  What exactly did you have to do to make this happen?"

Grinning at his husband, Jungkook shrugged his shoulders and replied, "It was easy.  I told Bang PDnim that I wouldn't enlist until you did and I would cause a scene if we weren't in the same camp together.  He agreed to work it out and told me he thought it would be best if we had Jin around to look after us.  Not sure if he meant to watch out for people who would hurt us because of our little secret or to watch out for us exposing ourselves.  Either way, he set it all up and now here we are.  We're going to spend our 18 months together.  You think Bam will still remember me when we get back?"

Jimin huffed out a disbelieving laugh.  "Oh, is that all you had to do?  Mmhhmm.  I totally believe that.  And yes.  Bam will remember you.  You're his favorite."

"Well that's an outright lie and we both know it, Jimin-ssi," Jungkook frowned at his husband.

The pup in question made an appearance into the living room from the hallway and looked between both men before happily trotting to the couch and jumping up onto Jimin, licking the side of his face before he could move away. 

As Jimin giggled and pushed at Bam, who continued to pin him down and lick his face, Jungkook hummed and crossed his arms.  "See?  You're his favorite.  He's going to forget all about me while we're gone."

Finally emerging from under Bam's paws, Jimin wiped the dog drool from his cheeks and grinned at Jungkook who was now receiving the same treatment.  "Obviously not."

They snuggled under the blanket, Bam curling between them and across their laps.  Jimin planted a long kiss on Jungkook's cheek before leaning his head on his shoulder.

"Even though we'll be at the same base, we can't exactly do this while we're there.  It'll be 18 months of being next to you and not being able to hold you or touch you," Jimin snorted a laugh.  "It'll actually be almost exactly like when we were young and I was so head over heels in love with you, but didn't know you felt the same."

Jungkook chuckled, "Yeah, except this time I won't be deathly terrified of you or of exposing myself to you.  I'll just be nervous that other people will see it and figure out our secret.  It'll also be harder because I have held you and touched you and now I won't be able to anymore."

Jimin wrapped his arms around his husband and squeezed him tightly as he nuzzled his face into his chest.  "It will be hard, but at least we'll be together.  Remember this time last year when we were terrified that we'd be separated once we went in?  At least that's not going to happen.  We can get through this, baby.  And we'll have Jin there to help us along the way."

"True," Jungkook conceded, sliding his arms around Jimin in return.  "This is going to be better than we thought it would be already.  Do you think we were too bold?  You think Army's will figure out that we really are together?  So many of them already suspect it."

"And support it," Jimin reminded Jungkook with a kiss against his neck.  "But do you really care if they know?  You've been pretty bold since the announcement of our solo projects anyway.  I still can't believe you had a series of lives where you just watched videos of me while I was away working.  You couldn't have done that without Army's watching you watch me?  Did you miss me that much?" Jimin flirted and teased.

Jungkook laughed.  "I just didn't want to be alone missing you.  Army's are my comfort.  They make me feel better when I feel bad."

"That's sweet, baby.  But millions of people watched you drool over me and if that wasn't enough boldness, this surely will be.  You make me a little jealous of Army's, you know," Jimin pouted.  "You said they're all your girlfriends.  You didn't like that they called you their friend."

His laugh vibrating through Jimin's whole body, Jungkook replied flippantly, "They are my girlfriends.  It's just too bad for them that I don't like girls.  And that I'm married.  To a dude.  A sexy dude who is also the cutest thing I've ever laid eyes on."

"So Army's are your beard?"

Jungkook laughed harder, kissing the top of Jimin's head.  "When you put it like that it sounds bad.  No, they're not my beard or anything like that.  They're just my safe place.  My home.  Girlfriends is more like how the lyrics of For Youth said it.  They're my best friends for the rest of my life.  Soulmates.  Like you and TaeTae hyung."

"I see," Jimin said, still pouting.  "And what am I, then?"

"You are me," Jungkook's face scrunched in confusion as he replied simply, "I am you.  We've established this years ago."

"Still nice to hear it, though," Jimin smiled, satisfied.  "Maybe the enlistment won't be so bad."

"Yeah," Jungkook agreed, squeezing Jimin impossibly closer to him.  "At least we'll have each other."

A/N: This one is a legitimately SHORT story.  Short and sweet.  I saw that they were entering into the enlistment together and my jaw DROPPED.  Like...no other members did this.  I can't defend them anymore.  They're wildin'.
