His Oblivious Mate || TK

Taehyung POV

"So, what's your favorite color?" I inquire casually, taking a bite of my lunch as Jungkook and I enjoy our meal outside on the benches. The sun is warm against our skin, creating a pleasant mood.

"What color are your eyes?" Jungkook blurts out, his curiosity shining through his dark irises as he gazes at me intently. Is he not going to answer my questions? I wonder, amused by his sudden change in topic.

"Hazel mixed with ocean blue," I reply, shrugging. "I don't think there's a color for that."

"My favorite color is hazel mixed with ocean blue, little dove," Jungkook murmurs as he grins at me, his words carrying a tender sincerity that makes my heart flutter. I would've been blushing but I had noticed something strange.

His canines were not just slightly sharper than those of an average human; in fact, they were distinctly prominent and pointed, almost resembling the fangs of a creature.

"What's up with your canines, Jungkook?" I ask, leaning forward and inspecting the teeth. Jungkook closes his mouth shut, giving me a tight-lipped smile.

"Nothing? They're just very sharp because it's in my genes," Jungkook explains casually, almost nonchalant about the whole situation.

"Oh, really? Wow, that's cool. Can I touch them?" I exclaim. I know it's kinda weird but I want to see how sharp they truly are.

"You wanna touch my teeth?" Jungkook mutters, giving me a shocked but weirded out look.

"Ya," I mutter. "Can I? Pwease?" 

Jungkook sighs, giving me a smile. "Anything for you, little dove." Jungkook opens his mouth a bit and I quickly extend my arm, my fingers brushing against his soft, pillowy lips. Jungkook tenses under my touch and I wonder if I'm making him uncomfortable.

"You sure?" I whisper against his lips.

"Uh-huh," Jungkook whispers, his breath coming out harsh. Slowly, he again opens his mouth slightly, allowing me to tentatively reach out and trace the edge of one of his canine teeth with the tip of my finger.

"Holy shit! There fucking sharp? You sure you aren't a werewolf or something?" I exclaim as I jump back.

Jungkook chokes.

What's with this man and choking?

I wonder if he chokes on dic-

What the fuck am I thinking about?

"Uh next question," Jungkook mumbles as he wipes his palms on his trousers. I raise my brow at his reaction but continue.

"Okay then, what's your favorite memory?" I question as I go back to eat my lunch.

"The day I met you," Jungkook whispers. 

"Are you tryna flirt with me, man?" I chuckle. I may act as if it doesn't affect me but inside, every single butterfly in my stomach is flying at 100 miles per min.

"Am I?" Jungkook says. "Next question. What is your sexuality?"

"Bi," I answer. "What about you?"

"Gay," Jungkook replies. "Taesexual, acutally"

"Jungkook!" I screech, slapping his shoulder. "What's up with ya today, huh?"

"I'm in love," Jungkook mutters under his breath but I hear him.

"With who? Me?" I joke, poking his arm.

"You're a good guesser," Jungkook says, leaving me confused. He is joking, right? Suddenly, Jimin appears out of nowhere and places his head on my lap. I look down, worried. Jungkook tenses up beside me, clenching his fists.
