The Project // Jikook

Chapter Twenty-Four

[Hangover]

Jimin

I looked at Jungkook in shock. He looked so vulnerable right now but managed to be extremely cute at the same time. 

I propped myself up on my elbow, facing him. 

"I care about you for so many reasons. For one, you came into my life and helped me. Second, you always cared about me, third, you're so kind and amazing," He smiles at me, pulling me into his chest. 

"Jungkook, I could go on and on, but I could never be able to fully describe how you make me feel because there are few words to do so. I guess love is one of them," I finished speaking and looked up at him only to see him sleeping. I chuckled a bit. 

I guess he'll never know... But I knew, and that was enough. 

Besides... It's too soon to know, right? 

Taehyung and I were together for a year and never said it. Well, to be fair, there was more than a lot wrong with that relationship. 

I looked up at him again, snuggling into his chest. 

Who cares. I do love him.

"Jimin~" 

"Jimin!" Hobi shouted as he shook me harder. 

"What?" I sat up as I groggily rubbed my eyes and looked at him. 

"Well, Jungkookie, he kind of..." He trailed off as he pointed over to the bathroom. I could hear vomiting and instantly knew what happened.  

"Is Jin with him?" I asked knowing that Jin would want to comfort the younger. 

"Yeah, he asked us to make 'hangover foods', do you know any?" He asked me as Namjoon walked into the room sadly. 

"No, use google or something. Namjoon, what's wrong?" I quickly answered then turned my head to him as he looked up. 

"Jin said I couldn't be in there with him, because he's scared I'll break the sink again," He frowned and I laughed. 

"You broke the sink?!" I burst out into laughter forgetting that both Hana and Yoongi were still asleep. 

"It was an accident!" He yelled in defense. I laughed even more until a pillow was thrown at my head, knocking me over. 

"Shut up," Yoongi said as he put his head back onto a pillow. A terrified look washed over my face and I quickly stopped laughing. 

I decided to try and help make some 'hangover foods' and walked into the kitchen with my phone. I began to google as Jin came out from the bathroom. 

"Hey Jin," Taehyung smiled happily at him. 

"Hey Tae, what are you guys doing?" Jin asked as he grabbed a glass of water. 

"We are googling 'hangover foods'," He said slowly as he tried to type. 

"Oh, don't worry, I'll be back in a few to make some," He said as he walked off. I decided to follow him so I could talk to Jungkook. I walked into the bathroom to see Jungkook lying his head on the toilet seat. He perked up a little bit when he saw me. 

"Hey Kookie," I said in a soft voice. 

"Hey Jimin," He responded as he accepted the glass of water from Jin. He took a sip and relaxed a bit. 

"Jimin, can you help me move him to the bed?" Jin asked and I nodded a small yes. 

We lifted him up and carried him to the bed. He laid down and I sat next to him, running my hands through his hair. 

"Do you want to head home soon?" I questioned softly. 

"Yeah, let's just go home now," He responded. I nodded knowing he probably felt sick and I went out to grab our things. 

"Are you leaving?" I heard Tae ask from behind me. 

"Yeah, Kook's a tad bit hungover. He'll probably just nap," I say, grabbing our bags and shoving clothes into them. 

"We tried to stop him from drinking," Tae shakes his head. 

I chuckled at him, "Says the one who was shouting chug once he got any sort of drink in his hand." He purses his lips, not responding as I caught him in his lie. I opened the door again, both bags on my back as I smiled at him. 

"Alright Jungkookie, let me help you up," I lifted him up and we walked out. We walked home since it was close and I opened the door. I placed him on the couch and I walked off to the kitchen. I made some hangover soup and brought it out to him. He gladly accepted and ate. I sat next to him and chatted quietly. 

"Hey Jungkook, if you're feeling better tomorrow, we should go out on a date," I suggested and I saw his face light up.

"I would love to! We should go see a movie then go out to eat," He smiled and put his head on my shoulder. I smiled, I loved it when he did these cute small things to me. It made my heart beat quickly and my stomach fill with butterflies. 

"I love you, Jimin hyung, and thanks for what you told me yesterday," As soon as he spoke my heart raced and my eyes widened. He heard what I said? I thought he was asleep?

Wait- He said I love you!

"Wait, but you were-" He cut me off.

"I fell asleep right after you finished, sorry," He moved his head from my shoulder and scratched the back of his neck. 

"I swear, my goodness," I chuckled at him and I kissed him quickly on the lips. "Ugh! You still taste like beer." I rubbed my lips a bit and he chuckled. 

"Why thank you, it's this new chapstick I'm using called, hangover," He sarcastically said as he kissed me. I chuckled at him, completely forgetting what he had said just a few seconds ago. 

"Come on, you need a shower. Or at least to brush your teeth," I said as I pulled him up from the couch. He stood, hurrying off to the bathroom as he laughed at me. 

"Hey!" I yell. He turns around, a dumb smile on his face as he leans on his bedroom door. "I love you, too."
