The Lost Prince

Chapter 14

4/9 update...

Jin was surprised upon seeing Jungkook the morning that he woke up and the man was lying on the floor with his sleeping bag. He remembered asking Jungkook to stay in his room since the leaving room is colder. Jungkook agreed and brought his sleeping bag in Jin's room. Jin looked at him and smiled while observing his face. He would always look at Jungkook's eyes but this time, he was observing him now and since his eyes were closed, he was able to observe the other parts of his face. He noted that he has pointed but bigger nose than his. He knows that his own nose is not as pointed as Jungkook's, more like what they call a buttoned nose, but it's just small same as his face. He also observed how Jungkook's right face has a scar that he would always notice but this is the first time he saw how big the scar actually is. He wanted to touch it but Jungkook is a little bit far.

Jungkook's lips were thin but looks very soft. He wonders how those lips would feel on his, so he slowly touched his lips and imagined how soft they would be on Jungkook's, as he closed his eyes. He smiled upon thinking about it.

"You look happy." Jungkook said suddenly who observed him when he closed his eyes.

Jin's eyes widened and immediately removed his finger on his lip then hid it.

"I am not imagining anything." Jin said out of surprise.

Jungkook smirked then opened the sleeping bag wider. "You were imagining about?"

Jin suddenly covered his mouth with his hand, realizing he just divulged an information that he should not have.

Jungkook supported his head with his hand, waiting for Jin's response but the latter did not respond and just turned his back on Jungkook while squeezing his eyes closed. He then covered his whole body, including his head with the blanket, feeling shameful of his own words. Jungkook smiled because of Jin's actions before totally removing sleeping bag from his body. Jin heard him fixing the sleeping bag, but was not able to say anything due to the shame he brought to himself.

"I will bring you breakfast." Jungkook said as he carried the sleeping bag on his right arm. "I will bring your keys so that I can lock your main door." He said before leaving the house.

Jin heard it all but just gave Jungkook a quick thumbs-up as he let the man leave. He did not show his blushing face anymore to Jungkook.

Jungkook smiled then shook his head with Jin's action before he left the man alone in his bedroom.

When Jungkook arrived at their apartment, he saw Hoseok already eating some of the breakfast prepared by their eomma before she left for the market.

"Hyung! How is Jin?" Hoseok said upon seeing Jungkook.

"Your mouth is full." Jungkook said and Hoseok just frowned at him and continue eating. "I think his feet is better than yesterday. I put some medicine on it last night, before he slept. I did not check on it today as he was hiding under his blanket, but I will check later before he takes his breakfast." Jungkook said.

"You are taking a really good care of him." Hoseok said, narrowing his eyes on him.

Jungkook felt a different thing on how Hoseok looks at him but he tried to dismiss it. "Whatever." He then observed that Hoseok's wearing his usual uniform at the hotel. "You will work early?" He asked.

Hoseok nodded. "Nayeon called in sick, so the management called me early to check if I can cover. I don't have morning classes today so I think it will be fine to cover for her." He said.

"Hm, I see. Will you be having classes later?" He asked as he started packing some breakfast for him and Jin.

"Hm. Just two, and both in the afternoon. Sakura will be there for her shift then." Hoseok answered.

"That's good. Make sure not to prioritize your part-time job, I can cover in case you need extra money. I am only allowing you to work now because you said you are enjoying it and it will be a good experience for your major, but if it will bring harm to your grades you will have to quit." Jungkook said.

"Hyung, I know. Stop scolding me like an appa." Hoseok said after rolling his eyes.

"Where's appa, by the way? Did he take his breakfast already?"

"He's resting. I helped them earlier with the boxes, and helped eomma in fixing it in her cart. I told Appa to sleep so that he can rest before he goes to work."

"I see. I will check on him later. What time do you need to go to work?" Jungkook asked.

"I'll leave in 30 minutes." Hoseok said as he finished his food.

"You take care and call me if you need anything. I will take these to Jin." Jungkook said as he showed the containers with food and some plates.

"Wait! I will help you, I want to see Jin." Hoseok said as he rushed in finishing his food, then washing his plate.

Jungkook waited for him and they both went up to Jin's apartment.

Hoseok got excited seeing Jin so he immediately opened the bedroom without knocking, however, he was surprised when he saw Jin trying to stand up.

"Jin! What are you doing?" He asked in a louder voice, which took Jungkook's attention, who was currently fixing all the plates at Jin's small dining table. He immediately checked on Jin and ran to the bedroom.

He saw Hoseok taking Jin's hand, while the latter was trying to stand up.

"You should not stand up without anyone assisting you." Hoseok said, scolding Jin.

"What were you thinking?" Jungkook said with a serious look, which scared Jin again.

Jin looked away. "I---I wanted t-to take a-a s-shower." He said, showing the towel he has on the other hand.

Jungkook sighed then went to his other side, to support Jin. "Sit on your bed and I will help you shower." Jungkook said while helping Jin sit on the bed.

"Y-you will what?" Jin said.

"What?" Hoseok also said at the same time.

Realizing that his words must have misunderstood, Jungkook's eyes widened. "W-well, I-I mean I will help you shower."

"What?" The both asked again.

Jungkook did not know how to explain it further and he blushed with his own words. He then stood up from Jin's bed. "I will get a chair so that you can shower more comfortably. Hoseok, stay with Jin for now." He said in a very fast tone then quickly left.

Both were just staring at the door where he left.

"Did he just say he will shower you?" Hoseok asked.

"Y-yeah. I think that's what I also heard. W-will he really h-help m-me in the shower?" He asked pointing at the bathroom.

They looked at each other. "I bet you like that." Hoseok asked with wide eyes, looking at Jin.

Jin nodded unconsciously then Hoseok laughed.

"Oh god! Jin! You are so obvious. You like my hyung that much, huh?" Hoseok asked.

Jin blushed upon realizing his answer. "N-No! I mean, yes because I need help! What were you thinking, Hoseok? God! No! I don't--- I can't. God!" He said in panic but had a thought of it already.
