'Confessions' Chapter 13

Jungkook found the duo pacing in the living room.The little boy had his head buried in his father's neck, holding his plushie with his eyes closed. Once he heard the door shut and sensed the younger 's presence, he pouted, extending his small hands as Jungkook slogged to his side, taking him in his arms.

" You left Tata..." the boy mumbled, sulking."Why?"

" I was out, bun. Didn't dada tell you?" He threw a menacing glare at Taehyung, indicating his insolence.
The man scratched his neck, bitting his lips." He was... crying... asking for you...so I...I..."

" You thought of ruining my date!" he noted, with a supercilious nudge." You assured me you could take care of him. Your words not mine."

" Well... He thought you abandoned him.It's not my fault you're the apple of his eye!" he answered back, sounding slightly disappointed and disturbed, but completely ignored by Jungkook, whose mere focus was on Tata.

" Have you had your dinner?"

" Yes, with dada. He read me stories, too."

" Excellent.Shall we go to sleep?"

The boy shook his head." No...Tata isn't sleepy. Can we watch cartoons?"

" Bun it's late. Past your bedtime."

" Don't want to! Please can we watch Ironman?" Tata insisted, blinking his eyes cutely and Jungkook huffed. The boy knew his weakness ,fully taking advantage of it.

" Just for a while. Then you're off to bed. No objections. Ok? Go to dada so I can change." Those pants were squeezing his thighs, cutting off his blood circulation. Plus the shirt was revealing too much. What the hell was he thinking wearing such a provoking but mostly uncomfortable outfit? Oh yes...to piss off Taehyung!Unwillingly Tata agreed and five minutes later he came back ,in dark, grey loose pyjamas, barefoot.

" I made popcorn." Taehyung showed him the big bowls on the coffee table with such proudness ,as if he had made a remarkable discovery.

Jungkook lifted up his eyebrow, folding his arms across his puffy chest." Is the kitchen on fire? Do we have to call the fire brigade?" he joked but in a serious way.

" Do you see any smoke? Did you hear an explosion?" he asked in the same tone.

" Knowing you, you might have ordered the explosion to be quiet."

" I find you slightly sarcastic."

" Simply stating facts." he answered back, rolling his eyes.

" For your information making popcorn isn't nuclear science." he rejoined merily." There is salt and chocolate flavour. Can't wait to eat them."

" That means you are staying? To watch cartoons." he emphasized , praying for a negative answer.

" Wouldn't miss it! I have done it before you know."

The younger puffed his cheeks, glunching at the man but didn't want to cause a scene in the boy's presence. They sat on the couch, Tata between them, eating the snack and watching. Taehyung 's eyes were staring at the younger, practically drilling holes in his body and at the at the same time bridling his curiosity to bomb him with questions.

" What?" Jungkook asked irritated.

" How was your date?"

" Short."

" Did you have a good time?"

" I would if I was allowed to."

The man coughed, one knee crossed over the other." Did he make any... inappropriate moves?"
