"YOU'RE WARM"

                     

jungkook focus

(later that night)
jungkook sits up in bed, suppressing the need to groan out loud in fustration. eun min's words were repeated over and over again in jungkook's head, making the younger's head hurt with irritation.

"so stop being selfish," she had said.

am i being selfish?, jungkook asks himself, climbing out of bed to search for his phone. he gives up on any chance of sleep and decides to search for his phone, seeking a distraction from his thoughts.

he stumbles around in the dark dorm, feeling around for his phone. he finds the device sitting on the bedside table close to taehyung, he takes it silently and wanders over to the window.

maybe i should go to the wedding?
there's no harm in going, so why not?
he pulls the curtains back and opens the window, needing fresh air to clear his head.

just go jungkook. smile and congratulate mom and youngho, take photos with ji yeon and eun min and make small talk with relatives you didn't even realise you had. after that you can leave : it's not biggie.

he sharply inhales the cool cool air, relaxing as the freezing air calmed him and roused tiny goosebumps on the skin of arms.

it's just a wedding.

yeah, just a wedding where your mom will be marrying some other dude.

jungkook presses the home button of his phone, idly sliding through his instagram feed. pictures of his friends and family meet him as he scrolls down his feed. he notices several and random posts from his classmates of a ghost sighting in the girls dormitories or something but ignores it.

his thumb stops hastily scrolling down when an image of his mom and youngho comes to view. it was a photo taken on new years by some distant relative, the caption reading "excited for the wedding!! congrats to the two of you."

jungkook sighs and looks up out of the window. it's finally happening. he cups his cheeks with his free hand.

might as well come to terms with it, he thinks as he exits instagram to click on to his contacts, looking for his mom's number.

jungkook: see you on sunday then

jungkook looks behind him when he hears small noises; whimpers perhaps? he watches over his shoulder as taehyung sleepily pats around his side of the bed, looking for the younger with a cute crease embedded between his furrowed brows.

hm.
jungkook looks back down at his phone and types up a message.

jungkook: im bringing a plus one by the way

he switches off his phone and breaths out slowly, that's done then - don't back out now, jungkook, he tells himself as he closes the window and draws the curtains again.

"kook. . ." jungkook looks up to see taehyung sitting up in bed and looking around the room, his previously sleepy eyes wide and bewildered.

"here." jungkook smiles at his adorable hyung. he climbs back in bed and lets a confused taehyung rest his head on his shoulder, letting him close his eyes and mumble out a soft, "you're cold."

too cute, jungkook muses to himself.

jungkook smiles slightly and runs his fingers through taehyung's soft brown locks. "you're warm."

so . . . a ghost sighting?? hmm.
