Jeon Jungkook was off limits. Everyone knew that. The football team,the teachers and hell even Jungkook knew that. But the one thing he didn't know was why. He didn't know why everyone avoided him like he had some sort of disease. Jeon Jungkook was...

Yugyeom drove to the fast food restaurant down the street from his house. He had a full day of work that day, and was eager to start. That morning he'd promised Jungkook he would be open about his feelings, and wouldn't let himself become too overprotective anymore, but he had no intention of following through on that. In fact if the events of the previous night had done anything, they had pushed him to work even harder. Yugyeom just had to get Jungkook away from Kim Taehyung, and if Jungkook wouldn't listen to him of his own prudence, Yugyeom would just have to take matters into his own hands. Jungkook had been bullied a few years back and Yugyeom had begun saving money to transfer Jungkook to a new school, the problem was that Catholic School was more expensive than he anticipated, and because his grandparents were moderately wealthy (they had a nice condo in Florida) he was unable to secure proper financial aid. Yugyeom had taken on two jobs over the last couple of years and still couldn't come up with enough to cover the cost. Taehyung's presence, however had lit a fire under him. Yugyeon pulled the apron over his head and went to work the counter It was a weekday so it would be fairly slow, but his manager had asked to talk to him the next time he came in, so he had a funny feeling in the pit of his stomach. He joined his manager in the back office once the older woman got there. She was nice lady, and forgiving when his hours were difficult to deal with.
"You're a very skilled worker." She stated, "and being that I submitted my resignation last week, it looks like you're going to be filling my position,"
"Thank you." He grunted. Manager of a fast food restaurant wasn't every kid's dream, but it got him where he needed to go. "Does it... Does it come with a pay raise?"
"Yes dear You'll be receiving a call from the regional manager over the next few days to talk specifics."
Yugyeom ducked out of the office and got back to work. The restaurant was incredibly tacky, but it would be worth it if he could just protect his brother, Life without their parents was difficult in innumerable ways, and he just wanted things to be better. He knew they wouldn't ever be the same, but if they could just be alright he though he could make things better with Jungkook.
"Do you have any plans tonight?" Kit asked Jungkook lazily at the Lunch table. "Jungkook?" Kit asked again when Jungkook didn't answer. Jungkook had been staring at a table not far from theirs, where Taehyung sat with his friend Bogum, Jungkook hadn't meant to stare, but he just needed to have a quick Look.
"Oh... uh no. I don't."
"Were you staring at my brother?" Kit asked, after looking over his shoulder.
"No."
"Oh you totally were. Whatever, it's none of my business," Kit waited a moment to see if Jungkook would explain it to him, and when the other boy didn't he let out a little sigh. "Want to come over to my house after school?"
"Sure, I just gotta ask my brother." Jungkook's face flushed in excitement. He was excited to have a real friend again, something he hadn't had since Nick left him behind.
"Taehyung can drive us if that helps."
"Oh I won't tell hyung that." Jungkook's eyes widened slightly.
Jungkook: can I go to a friend's house after school? I've got a study hall last period. so I'll have finished my homework
Yugyeom: Who
Jungkook: my friend kit
Yugyeom: Sure.
Yugyeom: actually, I get out of practice early, y don't I pick you guys up and u can stay at our house
"Yugyeom says he finishes practice early. and he can pick us up and bring us to my house, would that work?" Jungkook asked. Kit, who pretended he wasn't looking over Jungkook's shoulder at his phone.
"Oh sure, My mom is messy anyway, so that's probably better."
Jungkook: that works
"Hey Jungkook" A voice called and Jungkook Looked up to see Nick and Taehyung walking over towards him, "I had a really nice time last night, we should try and do something again." Taehyung's cheeks had a dusting of pink, and Nick rolled his eyes at the cheesy Line. "Are you coming over tonight?"
"Nah. Jungkook's brother invited me over to theirs so that's where we're going." Kit answered.
"Oh Some other time then, Catch you Laten" Taehyung stated, and walked off. Nick Lingered for a moment, then walked off in the opposite direction.
"They're weird." Kit stated, and Jungkook nodded in agreement. The pair had the rest of the classes together, and then walked to the quad to wait for Jungkook's brother to pick them up. "What's your brother Like? He used to be Like the star athlete, right?"
"He's nice. He's playing college football now." Jungkook stated. A beat up old car pulled into the driveway, and Jungkook pointed it out to Kit, "That's him" Jungkook's brother waved from the can but his face twisted in confusion when he saw Kit.
"Hey hyung How was school?" Jungkook asked as he hopped in the front seat. "This is Kit, by the way."
"Hi Kit" Yugyeom Looked up in the rear view mirror before quickly flashing his eyes back towards the road.
"What's wrong?" Jungkook asked.
"Nothing." Yugyeom stated. His face was slightly flushed and Jungkook assumed it must have been a rough practice. The car pulled up to their house and the group got out to make their way inside.
Where's your bathroom?" Kit asked.
"Down the hall, first door on the right." Yugyeom answered before Jungkook could, "What the hell?" Yugyeom asked, turning to Jungkook,
"What?"
"I thought Kit was a girl," Yugyeom exclaimed.
"Is that an issue?"
"No, I'm just surprised is all. It's not Like you guys are going to do anything." Yugyeom began, but caught himself, and his face flushed red once again.
"Do anything Like what?" Jungkook asked in genuine curiosity.
"It's just... I didn't think you were... Into guys like that."
"I didn't think you were."
"Shut up. You know what I meant." Yugyeom scolded.
"No I don't. Guys Like what?" Jungkook asked.
"Like Kit. You're not, are you? I always figured you liked guys more like....Like Taehyung."
"I don't see what you're saying. What would be the difference if I had a guy Like Taehyung over verses If I had a guy Like Kit over?" Jungkook crossed his arms over his chest.
"You and Kit would never... Listen, if you and Kit are spoons, then Taehyung is a fork. You can't eat pasta with two spoons or two forks, you need a spoon and a fork to properly twirl the pasta."
"What's with the sudden interest in cutlery?" Kit asked, wiping his hands on his shirt as he exited the bathroom
"Nothing, Yugyeom's being weird. Let's go upstairs. Jungkook dragged Kit upstairs to his bedroom
"Bye Yugyeom" Kit called as they walked into Jungkook's neatly organized room "Oh my God, you're brother is so hot."
"Kitl Ewl" Jungkook scolded, "He's my brother!"
"I know, but even you can admit that man is sexy as hell."
"SHUT UPI He's gross." Jungkook wacked Kit across the head.
