One Day

Take 2

Kim Taehyung has always been a social butterfly, the easiest person to talk to about anything. One can never dare to be bored with him by the side, chattering as if there is no tomorrow.

But Kim Taehyung can be lonely at times, when he is not with his friends, or more specifically, when he is not with his Jeon Jungkook.

Between the two of them, Taehyung has always been the talkative one. He is the one who helped the once shy, quiet and introverted Jeon Jungkook come out of his shell and mix around. In return, Jungkook and his other friends became his comfort zone where he can let his heart out without being judged or afraid.

Without Jungkook, Taehyung would have been a flower vase, without the flowers. Jungkook (and his other friends of course) became the flower of his life.

Days when Jungkook was not with him at the company annoyed Taehyung a lot more than he would like to admit. He spent his morning going through some files, sorting out the paperwork until lunch break came and he had some chit-chats with his fellow workers and juniors and he decided to call it a day.

He packed up a few files, his wallet, and finally his phone that he was not able to open the whole day, before he went outside to find a taxi to drive him home, not wanting to bother Jhope and Daisy again.

"Jin hyung! JImin-ah! Look who came back early." Taehyung called out as he entered Jin's apartment directly after returning and made his way to Jin and Jimin's working bedroom where they do their webtoon drawings and stuff.

"Life would have been even more handsome than me if you could do the same every morning." Jin replied as Taehyung made himself comfortable in bed with them.

Jimin nodded in agreement, before scooting a bit to let Taehyung be comfortable with them. "How was work?" he asked,

Taehyung shrugged, "Same like always, just no Gguk."

"How about you two ?" he added.

Jin laughed and opened his drawing pad to show a drawing to Taehyung, which was a stickman with a cookie at top instead of a head.

Taehyung laughed at the little creature and asked "It looks like Jungkook doesn't it?" Jimin laughed and nodded. "We made it based on kook. He must be having a bad day over there all alone you know?"

Jin hummed and looked at Taehyung and said " His father is kind of unpredictable sometimes, you know? Out of nowhere we got a call that he will take kook for the day."

"Hyung he barely receives calls from anyone. I always call Taehyung when I need to talk to kook." Jimin replied as they showed Taehyung some of their draft drawings.

"It's not like I am always busy on the phone either." Taehyung added, which was indeed true, as the front door slammed again, and Namjoon and Yoongi made their way upstairs and entered the room.

"You all gotta check the lyrics of our new song, I know Jin you don't get any lines right but you have to because we need to make a group cover this weekend." Namjoon rapped as he plopped himself in the bed with the three of them, and Yoongi curled up in the corner until Jimin wrapped an arm around him and pulled him closer.

"Why do you guys choose the weekends when clearly nobody wants to wake up those two days!" Jin asked , his usual frustration back to his face as he pointed at Yoongi and Taehyung, who were yawning already. Yoongi pinched Taehyung 's legs and said " Well we gave you the part you wanted in Ddaeng so bad. Not because you exceeded expectations or something, but because you were following us like a shadow all the time this week."

Taehyung rubbed his pinched legs and made a face at Yoongi "Well I atleast I earned what I got-"

The front door slammed again, more louder this time and the next moment the two butterflies of the group, Jung Hoseok and Daisy came running and giggling inside the room and jumped into the bed with them, their eyes twinkling with anticipation and eagerness to share everything and anything that happened today.

"JHOPEE!" all of them cheered as Jhope stood up on the bed in the center, taking all attention.

"Well, the news today is not that cheerful for us, but I guess I should let Daisy have the stage since she can say it better than me." Jhope said. Making all eyes go to Daisy, who made herself comfortable in the bed.

"Well Taehyung shi, i think you should come to dance with us once a week." she said, making everyone laugh.

"Taehyung is always dancing, does he even walk?" Yoongi asked, making everyone laugh.

"Yoongi shi! He needs to remember his moves properly if he wants to dance with us , you know! Then he can remember Jungkook's words clearly as well. His memory will improve along with his dance." Daisy explained.

"What did you forget about Taehyung?"Jin Asked, eyebrows raised. Jhope patted Taehyung s head and said "You know he worries about everyone even though he is still too young."

Realization hit Taehyung like a sword at that moment.

"I will text you as soon as I go there okay?"

"Well you always forget it!"

No fucking way he just forgot to text Jungkook the whole freaking day. Who is gonna explain that he barely did anything the whole day instead of just missing his Gguk but he just forgot to give his best friend a goddamn text-

"Taehyung ah don't freak out! You guys can talk it out, you know." Jimin assured, earning a nod from Namjoon and Jin. Taehyung nodded and climbed out of the bed " He is back right?" he asked and Daisy nodded.

"Jimin come on, let's get back as well, I will show you the lyrics of your part." Yoongi called and easily dragged Jimin out of the bed with a small tug of his shirt.

"Don't tell me you forgot the ice cream and donuts! Its been weeks Yoongi-" Jimin started as the three of them climbed down the stairs.

"It has barely been seven days let alone weeks Jimin-"

"Seven days is one week-"

"But not weeks!"

Taehyung hurried off, not carefully listening to their banter like usually does as he reached in front of the door of his and Jungkook's shared apartment. Jimin and Yoongi came to him before entering their apartment.

"Tae we will be here okay? Remember Kook will never be mad at you, he may be a bit stressed after having a long day so unexpectedly, you know." Jimin spoke softly.

Yoongi gave a soft smirk and added " Be a good friend like you always are and I'll give you any part you want in the next song. You wont need to be a shadow." Yoongi pats the younger's cheeks as he and Jimin close their door , lefting Tae all along in the hallway.

Arguments and playful banters were common between Jungkook and Taehyung, and they always made it up before anyone else even knew about it. Taehyung wouldn't mind getting a few snaps from the younger one , after all Jungkook had a rough day after a painful stomach ache the previous night.

But he would never want Jungkook to feel like his emotions don't matter to him , no matter how small they are.
