First Impressions

Two

(I am changing some parts from the movie due to cultural differences. I couldn't figure out a way to make British traditions work with my version.)

Sitting in a less crowded restaurant, Jin finally felt more relaxed and was able to carry on a conversation.

"So what do you think about the trouble going on in Ukraine? Isn't it terrible?" Jin asks, trying to sound intelligent.

"I don't give a fuck about that. But tell me, how do you know Taehyung? I saw you talking with him earlier."

"Oh.. well apparently I used to play naked in his little pool as a child."

"I bet you did you little tease." Jungkook replies with a laugh.

"What about you? How do you know him?"

Jungkook's demeanor suddenly changed and he appeared to struggle to keep his voice light. But still tried. "Same."

Jin laughs and says, "You don't have to worry about me telling him. We are not friends. Anything you say will stay between us."

Jungkook looks deep into his eyes, and says, "Well, we met in college. Actually we were roommates. And we became the best of friends. Or at least I thought we were. We both did as most people do as their lives moved on. I met someone very special and became engaged. I was very happy.

I was glad that he and I remained close, even after graduation. I then got a job where I had to travel alot so I asked him if he could check in on her while I was away. So I would know she was ok." He stops to find Jin completely immersed in his story.

So he continued.. "As luck would have it, after one such trip. I was returning home a day early and thought I'd surprise my fiancée. I arrived at my apartment, eager to see her when I suddenly heard the unmistakable noises of... sex" he shudders as if he's picturing the moment.

Jin gasps and says, "No way! He betrayed you that way?"

Jungkook looks down, with a sad expression. "I haven't spoken of it in years. As you can imagine, we are not friends anymore and I am not married. I suppose he did me a favor by showing me how easily she could cheat."

"Ughh.. I can't believe that. And he appears to have such high morals and values. Who knew he could be such an asshole."

Jungkook clears his throat and says, "Anyway, let's not dwell on the past. Let's get shitfaced and see where the night takes us."

Jin smiles and agrees.

They ordered several rounds of drinks and afterwards stopped at a liquor store to buy some wine. Before heading to Jungkook's place.

The effect of the liquor lowered Jin's inhibitions and he easily fell into bed with him. They had sex well into the next morning. And spent the rest of the weekend in bed.

When Jungkook drove him home, Jin couldn't help but ask.

"What happens at work tomorrow?"

"Ah.. I assumed you knew. Well our place of employment is a very well known publishing company. And I am just one of many people who help keep that company going..."

Jin giggles and says, "No! Not that. I just meant.. well what if people can tell."

"Tell?" Jungkook asks confused.

"Well, yeah. That you and I are.. you know."

"Oh.. ahem, well there isn't really much to tell is there? I mean we just started a couple of days ago. And now it's going on Monday."
