"a good education is not a protection against the hazards of life"

Taehyung

"Why are we in here, again?"

"I'm looking for kinky shit"

I follow Hoseok through the oddly large amount of isles in the sex store, traipsing along as he searches for his desired items. I don't often question his sex life, too concerned on what he may say. He's a hoe; to put it simply.

"Why don't you buy some stuff so I don't look like a total slut" he chuckles as he chucks a pair of fluffy handcuffs into the basket. I gulp and shove my hands in my pockets.

"I have no one to do that stuff with..." I make up an excuse and kick a dildo that has fallen from its shelf.

"Bullshit" Hoseok tuts, throwing one of the dildos at me and hitting my crotch.

"Ow! What the fuck?!?" I yell and throw it back it him. He just giggles and jumps out the way. I notice a couple at the end of the isle look at us strangely and roll my eyes.

"There must be someone! What about that Jung... Jungcock or whatever"

"Jungkook"

"Yeah, him. Didn't you hit it off? You could use some of this stuff on him" he wiggles his eyebrows and gestures towards the shelves with his thumb.

I bite the inside of my cheek and look the shelves up and down, eyes landing on a pot of watermelon lube. I discreetly grab hold of it and place it in the basket hanging from Hoseok's hand whilst he stares at an assortment of chokers. However, the pot falls onto its side causing a crashing noise, Hoseok spinning his head and eyes landing on the lube.

"Aha! I was right! Is that all you're gonna get?" He winks and I chuckle to myself.

"I'm pretty sure he's a virgin so I don't wanna do anything too extreme" I explain and watch as realisation sinks in on my friend's face.

"Ahhh I see. Come back here some other time with me and we can get some other stuff when he's more... experienced" Hoseok squeals with joy at the idea and prances down the isle towards the cashier. Begrudgingly, I run after him and join the excited male as he pays for the stuff.

After being handed the bag, we both exit the shop and face the cold wind. It's a busy afternoon with groups of friends, families and couples strolling down the street occupied with rows of shops. Every now and again, people stop to peer inside windows decorated with clothes and jewellery. A tight hold grasps onto my arm and I turn to see Hoseok grinning, pulling me towards the square. We perch on a stone bench that faces a tall monument of an old conqueror, sword in hand and determination moulded into his withered marble face.

"So, tell me more about this Jungcock guy" Hoseok perks up and fishes out two bentos filled with sushi that we bought earlier. He hands me one and I place it on my lap, opening it up and detaching the chopsticks from one another.

"Well Jungkook is really cute with the most beautiful eyes that could hold the galaxy. Every time he looks at me my heart flutters and he's constantly making me smile. Plus I just wanna pinch his cheeks 24/7..."

"Which cheeks?"

"Both"

We both laugh and tuck into our sushi, fishing the pieces into our mouths. I groan with joy as the flavours explode in my mouth in a frenzy of sensations that take over my tastebuds. I sound like Jin.
