kimchihyung: ey
kimchihyung: remember me? lol
kimchihyung: your fav friend
kimchihyung: u should be awake
kimchihyung: hell
kimchihyung: o?

jungkook groaned as he squinted through the darkness, and practically flailed his arms like a blind man while looking for his phone. slightly irked at how the vibration seemed to resonate around the room. he muttered a few curses when he picked it up.
'damn it, i should put my phone on silent next ti-' he cut himself off, eyes widening at the username that appeared on the screen.
"hyung, hyung, hyung." he muttered repeatedly to himself as his fingers tapped away, wanting to deny how excited he was but he couldn't seem to hide it.

jungkiok: i remember you, man.
jungkiok: wtf, where have you been?

kimchihyung: japan, but i'm coming over this summer

'it's already summer,' jungkook thought, rubbing the sleep off his eyes as he grabbed the towel from his desk, and wiped the sweat that ran down his naked torso. his covers were already pushed off, what else did his body want? strip? hell no.

kimchihyung: don't worry, i will buy ur fav popsicles!!1!
kimchihyung: u must be really hot
kimchihyung: lol not in that way
kimchihyung: ...
kimchihyung: u get me fam

'oh, the embarrassment he must have endured.' he thought, snickering to himself as he quickly typed a reply.

jungkiok: i'm fine, man. just come on over soon so we can play minecraft or something.

kimchihyung: what's with ur name lol

jungkiok: ..it was a typo.

kimchihyung: loser
kimchihyung: let's vcall

jungkook's eyes widened at the latter's message. it was a while since he last saw him, heck, maybe a year and a few months or so? not that he should even be nervous, but it was 1 AM and the lights were out. typical dorm rules.

jungkiok: k, call me whenever.

he replied, jolting from his bed towards the light switch to turn the lights on. if he had to reveal himself to taehyung half naked, then he should, at least, show off how much he had been working out despite the stressful college works he had to go through. but of course, that wouldn't happen.

kimchihyung is calling...

a few seconds passed after jungkook had accepted the call, and taehyung's deep, raspy voice could be heard from the other line.

[ hello, kook? ]

"hey, hyung." jungkook muttered, still with the after effects of the sleepiness from earlier. "why are you up so early?" the light illuminated his features, casting a dark, ominous facade from him after a few seconds of struggling to keep his hand still as the camera faced him.

[ to break the good news, of course! ]

the other male bellowed from the screen, and jungkook watched intently as taehyung began to unbutton his polo.

[ and i just got home, i was about to change, actually. ]

he now began to show his boxed grin, stopping whatever he was doing as his slender fingers remained on the second button.

[ hey, kook. do you have a roommate? ]

jungkook's face contorted into a confused one, his brows knotted together as he tried to cover his chest with a shirt.
"what? no, i don't have a roommate. haven't i told you that i only rented a single dorm room as soon as you left?" cold sweat beaded down his forehead, for some reason. he understood that it was pretty hot inside the room, but this time, it was different. there were cold spots, and he could feel it approaching, or maybe it was just him.

it was taehyung's turn to be confused this time, his eyes narrowing as he peeked closer.

[ you sure? i think there's someone behind- ]

and the screen turned black.
