As Taehyung sits in his office after finishing all of his classes for the day, there is a soft knock on his door. "Come in." Taehyung hums and looks up from his laptop.
"Hey, Prof., I was wondering if you had a place to stay tonight." Jungkook smiles as he enters Taehyung's office.
"Uhm, I was thinking about getting a hotel for the night." Taehyung quietly mutters and meets Jungkook's gentle gaze.
"You can stay at my place. I don't mind." Jungkook suggests and shoves his hands into his pockets as his heart rate spikes up.
"I don't want to bother you. You are a student, and you're working at the same time." Taehyung softly smiles up at his student.
"You won't bother me at all, and if you're worried about being bothered, I am rarely home." Jungkook shrugs with a small smile.
"Just stay with him." Jimin pops into the room, walks past Jungkook, and plops himself in the soft chair in the corner. "I prefer you being with someone than alone in a hotel room, and right now, you can't be with me. Plus, I'm going to stay with Hyung so that the bitch won't bother me." Jimin hums and pops a strawberry candy into his mouth. "A strange student gave this to me. Aren't these candies that old people like?" Jimin mutters to himself as he looks at the candy wrapper.
"As long as it really doesn't bother you, I'll stay with you." Taehyung smiles, causing Jungkook's heart to beat out of his chest. "On one condition."
"What condition?" Jungkook holds his breath and waits.
"That I sleep on the couch, and you sleep in your bed." Taehyung frowns at his student.
"Oh, okay." Jungkook nods and smiles.
"Now that that's settled, I am leaving." Jimin grins and saunters out of the office. That kid definitely likes Tae. He snickers to himself and glances at Taehyung and Jungkook.
"Are we going on your motorcycle?" Taehyung asks as he packs his briefcase with the homework he needs to grade.
"Is that okay?" Jungkook nervously bites the piercing on his lower lip.
"Of course. I had a lot of fun this morning." Taehyung smiles at Jungkook, causing Jungkook's breath to hitch.
"Okay." Jungkook instantly smiles and takes Taehyung's briefcase.
"I can carry it." Taehyung tries to grab his briefcase from Jungkook.
"You had a long day." Jungkook hums and stops his professor from taking the briefcase.
"I'm fine. Really-" Taehyung pauses when he sees a reporter around the corner. "I will have to take a taxi." He whispers and quickly snatches his briefcase from Jungkook.
"Prof, what is wrong?" Jungkook looks at Taehyung in confusion when his professor's demeanor changes.
"Reporter," Taehyung mutters and ducks his head, trying to find a way out.
"Here." Jungkook takes a cap out of his backpack and places it on Taehyung's head. Taehyung looks up at Jungkook in surprise as his student fixes the hat to cover his eyes.
"Thank you," Taehyung whispers with a smile as he relaxes.
"Just follow me. I am good at sneaking out of here." Jungkook grins as he takes Taehyung's hand and guides him through the building. Taehyung stares at their clasped hands as he stumbles after Jungkook.
When they make it to Jungkook's motorcycle, he quickly places his helmet on Taehyung and covers his face. "I know you had fun this morning, so I don't want you to miss out." He smiles and motions for Taehyung to get on.
