I Need You ⚣ TK

Chapter seventeen: sometimes the laws are made to be broken

❀~~~~❀~~~~❀~~~~❀ 

After they had eaten their dinner, Taehyung had to go back to his paperwork. He brought everything to the table in the kitchen so he'd work in silence whilst Jungkook was in the lounge watching the television. Suddenly the brown-haired male's phone started ringing. 

"Hey Jimin," he greeted as he picked up the call.

"Hello mate," his friend greeted on the other side of the call. "How's it going?"

"With Jungkook you mean?" he asked.

"Yeah, your situation."

"Good, I guess. He actually tried kissing me last night," Taehyung admitted, thinking it's okay to tell his best friend only.

"Oh my god," Jimin gasped.

"Yeah, but he apologised earlier today, saying that he felt bad for making me uncomfortable." Taehyung went silent again.

Jimin also waited but spoke up again after none of them started talking again. "Did it?"

"Huh?" Taehyung asked.

"Make you feel uncomfortable?" he repeated.

Taehyung hesitated. "No, not really. I just told him I couldn't because he's my patient."

"Good," Jimin said, "but what if he wasn't your patient though?" he suggested.

Taehyung frowned by the question. "What do you mean?"

"I mean what I mean. Would you allow it if he wasn't your patient?"

"What are you, stupid?" Taehyung rolled his eyes, glad his friend couldn't see his red cheeks by the thought of the younger and him together.

"You still didn't answer my question," he nagged.

"Fine!" Taehyung suddenly yelled, probably startling him on the other line. "Yes, I would, okay? I probably would've allowed it," he admitted whilst hiding his face in his free hand. How embarrassing. Now he knows I might like the boy even the slightest.

"It's okay, you can't control your feelings," Jimin comforted calmly. "But you have to separate dreams and reality bud." 

"I know I know," Taehyung rolled his eyes, "I always follow the laws and rules."

"Yeah yeah, you nerd," the boy chuckled, "but you know, sometimes the laws a made to be broken; just make sure you don't end up a criminal." 

Taehyung couldn't help but to smile. "You're an idiot, you know that right?" he grinned.

"Yah!" Jimin yelled playfully, which made them both laugh. "Oh, and did you tell Jungkookie yet?"

Taehyung sighed. "No, not yet," he whispered.

He heard Jimin sigh as well. "You better move your bum Taetae or else this might get ugly."

Not long after, the boys hung up. Jungkook appeared a few minutes later, asking whom Taehyung was talking to. "And you didn't let me talk to him?" he asked with wide eyes.

Taehyung's eyes widen as well. "You...wanted to talk to him?"

"Yeah," he giggled, "I don't want him to think I can't socialise with no one except you. He knows I'm your patient, doesn't he?"

Taehyung's eyes widen. "I - I promise I didn't tell him! He suspected it on the day on the café," Taehyung said in panic, but Jungkook only chuckled.

"It's okay hyung, I don't mind," he reassured.

Taehyung breathed out in relief. "Thanks, Kookie." 

Both of them noticed the sudden nickname and both blushed madly. 

"Le - let's watch some television. I finished work," he quickly added before it'd become more awkward or even worse, Jungkook would ask about it. 

Nothing's worse than asking, because, honestly, Taehyung didn't know why he suddenly called Jungkook 'Kookie'. He's always had the nickname in his head, but he suddenly said it out loud that he hadn't done on purpose. 

"Hyung, can I ask you something?" Jungkook suddenly asked as they were watching the television screen in silence.

"What?" he asked.

"What did you mean earlier when you said you weren't uncomfortable from yesterday?" 

Taehyung hesitated. "Oh, I just meant that I didn't feel uncomfortable so you don't have to feel embarrassed or anything," he played it off coolly.

"It only makes it embarrassing when you put it like that," the younger blushed.

"Look, Jungkookie," Taehyung started as he faced the boy, "I like you. I do, but - "

"Shouldn't that be enough?" Jungkook interrupted as he leaned in closer to the elder.

'Sometimes the laws a made to be broken' ringed in Taehyung's head. Would it be okay to just kiss him this once? Taehyung for once didn't move away but rather the opposite. He leaned closer as well, so their lips would connect. Jungkook seemed surprised, but it only made their kiss sweeter.

"Do you really like me Jungkookie?" Taehyung asked after their kiss. I can't believe I'm breaking a rule for the first time in my entire life.

"I guess I do," he whispered, causing a frown on Taehyung's forehead.

"You guess?" he asked whilst standing up. "I just broke a rule. I broke a rule for the first time, for you, and you guess you like me?" Honestly, it made Taehyung feel pissed.

"No!" Jungkook protested in panic as he stood up as well to match Taehyung's height. "I do, I really do! Do you think what I did yesterday was just to amuse myself? To just play around? No, I did it because I wanted it. I wanted you." Jungkook hesitated further. "I'm just afraid."

Taehyung softened immediately. He gently held onto Jungkook each side on his face to comfort him and make sure he didn't think he was angry with him. "Afraid of what?" he asked softly.

"Of this. Of us," he whimpered, almost starting to cry. "I'm afraid I've already fallen for you and that my feelings will get crushed."

Taehyung felt bad immediately. "Do you really like me? Be sure Jungkookie, do you really fancy me or is it just because you trust me and feel protected by me?" 

"I really like you hyung," he whispered as he nodded, and honestly, that was all the answer of honesty the elder needed. 

"Then I'll do this for you, because I also like you." Jungkook's face softened and a smile made its appearance. They hugged affectionately and a soft kiss of love made its way.

What did I just get myself into? I'll end up as a criminal after all.
