The innocent boy and the obsessive teacher

17

Hi armies I am back. I am really sorry for the late update but I am very busy these days😭😭

Taehyung had been thinking about it for days. Jungkook's world was so small—limited to the same four walls, the same routines. Taehyung couldn't help but dream of showing him how much more life had to offer.

He wanted Jungkook to see what the world could look like beyond the confines of his room. Taehyung imagined them exploring parks, strolling through the bustling streets, or even doing something as simple as sharing a meal in his own home. The thought of having Jungkook stay over at his house, where they could talk late into the night and wake up to a breakfast he cooked for younger and than at night claiming the younger as his whole night at his own room, made Taehyung's chest fill with warmth.

But he knew it wouldn't be easy. Jungkook had lived in his shell for so long that even the idea of stepping outside might feel impossible. That was why Taehyung decided to take it one step at a time. A short outing—a safe, simple adventure where Jungkook could see for himself that the world wasn't so scary.

The idea crystallized during one of their tutoring sessions. As Jungkook solved a particularly tough math problem, his face lit up with a smile that made Taehyung's heart skip a beat. If he could help Jungkook feel this kind of confidence here, in these small moments, maybe he could help him feel it out there too

As they packed up for the day, Taehyung cleared his throat, his tone casual but tinged with excitement, making younger sit on his laps. "Jungkookie, can I ask you something?"

Jungkook looked up curiously, as his hands was busy putting away his notebooks but now are around taehyung's neck "Of course, hyung. What is it?"

Taehyung hesitated for a moment, choosing his words carefully. "I've been thinking... you've been working so hard lately, and you deserve a break. How about I take you out tomorrow? For ice cream—and maybe somewhere special afterward."

Jungkook's eyes widened with surprise and delight, though he quickly tempered his enthusiasm. "Hyung, you know I don't really go outside and I have never been since so many years and I don't think hyungs will like it?"

Taehyung crouched down to meet Jungkook's gaze, his voice warm and reassuring. "I already talked to Namjoon hyung. He said it's okay, as long as you're comfortable. I promise to keep you safe, Kookie. You'll be with me the whole time."

Jungkook's expression softened, though he still seemed hesitant. "Are you sure it's okay, hyung? I've never really gone anywhere like that before."

Taehyung smiled gently, placing a comforting hand on Jungkook's shoulder. "I'm sure, Jungkookie. You deserve to see the world outside these walls. Trust me, it'll be fun. Just think of it as an adventure."

The younger boy blinked, processing Taehyung's words before nodding slowly. "Okay, hyung. I'll go with you."

Taehyung's heart swelled with affection, and he couldn't hide his grin. "Great! Tomorrow, after our session, we'll head out. I promise it'll be a day to remember."

The next day, as their tutoring session wrapped up, Taehyung noticed the hint of excitement in Jungkook's demeanor. The younger boy's eyes sparkled with a mixture of nervousness and anticipation, and it warmed Taehyung's heart to see him this way.

"Ready to go?" Taehyung asked, his voice light.

Jungkook nodded, clutching his small backpack tightly. "I think so. Are you sure this is okay, hyung?"

Taehyung chuckled, ruffling Jungkook's hair. "It's more than okay, Kookie. Come on, let's go."

Jungkook stood at the front door, hesitating as Taehyung unlocked it and held it open. The sunlight streamed in, warm and inviting, but the world beyond felt vast and overwhelming. Jungkook's hands trembled slightly as he clutched the straps of his backpack. He had spent so many years confined to the familiar comfort of his home—his sanctuary—and stepping outside now felt like entering an entirely new realm.
