Taehyung: "Jungkook, I didn't mean it. I was frustrated, and I took it out on you. I let my emotions get the best of me, but that's not an excuse."

Jungkook let out a shaky breath, his body leaning into Taehyung's hold. The warmth of Taehyung's embrace was both comforting and overwhelming, and for a moment, Jungkook allowed himself to be vulnerable.

Jungkook: "It's okay...

Taehyung: "Please, don't leave me alone. I don't want to be alone."

Jungkook: (whispers) "Me too. I don't want to be alone, Taehyung."

Taehyung: "You're not. You never will be."

As Taehyung and Jungkook remained close, their emotions raw and intense, the moment between them grew more intimate. Taehyung's hand gently cradled the back of Jungkook's neck, his thumb brushing softly against his skin. Jungkook's heart raced as their faces inched closer, the tension between them palpable.

Their eyes met, the world around them fading into the background. Taehyung leaned in, his gaze flickering down to Jungkook's lips, and for a brief second, it seemed like everything else ceased to exist. The movie, the living room, and even the earlier argument all melted away, leaving just the two of them.

But just as their lips were about to meet, a voice cut through the silence, shattering the moment.

Yoongi: (deadpan) "Before you two get any closer, just know I'm still awake.

Taehyung and Jungkook both froze, their faces mere inches apart. The tension in the air was replaced with a sudden jolt of surprise and embarrassment. They quickly pulled apart, looking over at Yoongi, who was lying on the couch, seemingly uninterested but clearly very much awake.

Jungkook: (wide-eyed) "H-how long have you been awake?"

Yoongi: (smirking) "Long enough."

Jimin, who had been dozing off beside Yoongi, stirred at the sound of voices, rubbing his eyes sleepily.

Jimin: (yawning) "What's going on? Did I miss something?"

Yoongi: (casually) "Nothing much. Just letting everyone know that movie night is still on. Some people seemed to have forgotten."

Taehyung: (flustered) "Uh, yeah... We were just... watching the movie."

Yoongi: (chuckling softly) "Sure you were."

Jimin, still half-asleep, didn't catch the awkwardness in the air and simply snuggled back into yoongi, oblivious to what almost happened.

Yoongi: (teasing) "Just remember, walls have ears. And eyes, apparently."

Jungkook: (muttering under his breath) "We'll keep that in mind..."

Taehyung: (whispering) "I guess some things are best left for another time."

Jungkook's cheeks flushed red.

Taehyung: (teasing) "Look at you getting all red just because of almost kiss. last night You were the one suggesting we should try —"

Jungkook: (interrupting, voice low) "Keep it quiet. Someone might hear."

Taehyung: (smiling softly) "Alright, alright. I just wanted to let you know how cute you look when you're flustered."

next morning

Jimin: (stretching and yawning) "Good morning, everyone."

Jungkook: "Good mor... What time is it?"

Jimin: "8:45."

Jungkook: (panicking) "What?! Oh God, I'm late! Taehyung, wake up!" 

taehyung: (mumbling) "Let me sleep..."

Jungkook: (kicking Taehyung lightly) "Wake up! We're going to be late!"

Taehyung: (grumbling) "Ouch! What's the matter?"

Jungkook: "We're late! We need to go now."

Taehyung: (rubbing his eyes) "Don't worry. I'll call Mr. Joe."

Taehyung dials Mr. Joe.

Taehyung: "Mr. Joe, can you come pick us up quickly? We're at Jimin's house."

Mr. Joe: (on the phone) "Sorry, young master, but I can't do that. We're not allowed meeting you."

Taehyung: (frowning) "What? That's ridiculous."

Mr. Joe: "Master, he is your father. I can't go against his orders."

Taehyung: "Don't lecture me. I don't care."

Jungkook: (concerned) "What did he say?

Taehyung: "My father told him not to follow my orders. First, he took our house, and now our car."
