(BTS FF) Ending Green

thirty-four≪ °❈° ≫ deconstructing at parties

Riya's POV

I walk downstairs the next morning, fending off a yawn as I enter the kitchen.

I woke up later than usual.

Jungkook and I stayed up late talking. Most of it was nonsense that was lost between kisses, and my stomach blooms with a mixture of pleasant feelings from the memory.

I faintly recall him asking if I wanted to wake up with him, but I must have declined because when I was more aware, he wasn't in bed with me.

I find him now at the kitchen counter near the coffee pot. His back is to me as he arranges the condiments, and I listen to the want building within me, walking toward him.

Once I reach him, I place my head against his side.

He looks down, and at the sight of me, his features ease into a smile.

"Hey," he murmurs, passing a hand through my hair. "How did you sleep?"

I yawn against my protests, offering an abashed smile in response.

"Really good. I'm just yawning."

He chuckles. "Do you want some coffee?"

I nod as I nuzzle against him.

He begins to grab a cup from the cabinet, but I tug at the bottom of his shirt. He looks down at me questioningly.

He must see the look on my face because a moment later, he's leaning down.

His lips near my ear as he reveals, "The others are down here."

I blink, and sure enough, I turn to find them staring at us.

After a couple of more blinks, I wave slightly.

Taehyung waves back.

Heat tickles the back of my neck, and I turn back to Jungkook.

I cup my face in my hands, and he understands, leaning back down to give me better access to his ear.

"Do they know?" I ask.

He shakes his head.

I think for a moment before wondering, "Can we tell them?"

"Do you want to?"

I lean back enough to see his face. My brows furrow almost indignantly. "Why wouldn't I?"

He hides a smile. "They might tease you more."

"I can handle it. You can beat them up for me."

He motions me forward, and I turn for easier access to my ear.

"Are you comfortable kissing in front of them?" he questions.

My face burns, and my only response is a squeak.

"We're right here, you know," Taehyung says from the table. "It's very easy to include us in your conversation."

Jungkook pulls me closer to him, positioning me against the counter and away from the others.

Hidden away, I look up at him, my eyes questioning the sudden movement.

"They were staring," he says simply, his words quiet enough to invade our space only. "You haven't made a decision yet."

I blush, offering a small shrug. "I...I'm a little embarrassed to kiss in front of everyone."

He pinches my cheek fondly. "Okay. It's a good thing they can't see from this position."

My cheeks burn, but I can't help the way my body reacts to his words. I press myself closer to him, enjoying the way his features shift and how he takes a sudden breath.
