Okay.

'It's fine Kook, it's completely normal to have a crush on someone. That's okay..'

'—Even if it's your straight best friend, still okay. —At least you know you're really gay, right?'

...

Okay, that's some bullshit excuse right there— but I'm new to this, please cut me some slack.

I know it's not okay. It's crazy. Of all people, Kim Taehyung? No way.

'I'll find a way to stop this weird feelings..'

I started cleaning the living room and the kitchen. When I was done with the chores, I decided to cook for our lunch.

I decided to cook for more than two person. Who knows, Taehyung might come here without eating yet.

—And I wasn't wrong. After a few minutes preparing the food, he arrived with his empty stomach.

I called Yerin in her room upstairs. The sound inside was a bit loud that I had to knock a few times before she opened the door for me.

"What?" She asked without looking at me.

"It's lunch, eat downstairs. Taehyung's here." She did not say a thing.

"Go down, immediately. The food's not gonna wait for you." I said and grab her arm gently then closed the door behind us.

"Oh, hi Yerin!" Taehyung waved his hand at my sister as he approach us at the dining room. Yerin just smiled at him in response.

I've known him since junior high, have been bestfriends for almost two years. At this point, he's been hanging out at my house ever since. For that, it's just normal for Yerin to see Tae around.

The lunch just passed by, with me and Taehyung talking to each other.

/Of course ignoring the fact that I have a crush on him, because who wants to think about that right./

"Hey, can you clean up the dishes?" I asked Yerin and she just nodded her head.

"Good. Coz we'll gonna prepare something.." I replied while helping her get the plates to the sink.

And with that, she instantly looked at me.

"You're finally gonna throw a party here?" She asked me excitedly.

"No, dummy. We're gonna do a project here that's why I'm gonna prepare 'materials'." I said emphasizing the word 'materials' while chuckling.

"Tsk.." She just rolled her eyes on me. My sister is quite the outgoing person, which I can never relate to.

I walked towards Taehyung who's currently in the living room.

"I just cleaned up here, how about upstairs? The materials are there too." I suggested, not wanting my efforts to go to waste if we make it here.

"Your room? Okay. C'mon, let's mess it up." He joked and chuckled then head upstairs.

'Mess it up? What the actual fuck was that? I mean, I don't have /that/ clean mind to be able to take his words lightly.'

I just shook my head at the idea that was starting to cloud my mind and followed him.

I opened my room's door and let him in. I took the materials and put it on my bed. While Taehyung just sat on the side with his phone within his hands.

"You better help me with these. It wasn't called 'by pair' for nothing." I said, rolling my eyes at him.

"Yes Sir." He replied putting down his phone and looked at me, grinning.

"You should start already. I'll just take a bath, I feel stinky from all the cleaning I did awhile ago. My table contains all things you need for that." I pointed my mini study table on the side of my bed.

He just nodded in response so I immediately went to the bathroom.

'Guess it's not that hard to hide it from him until it fades away?'

I gently brushed myself while my mind is being filled up of thoughts and scenarios that might happen if this stupid crush won't go away easily.

'What if Taehyung will know and he'll start to act awkwardly around me? I won't let him know it, of course. But there's no secret that can be kept for long.'

As I was about to get dry with my towel, I realized that I did not bring any clothes with me.

"Shit.." I murmured to myself as I started to panic. Now how am I going to get dressed?

"Aish.." I have no choice but to wrap my towel around my waist and get my clothes outside.

I gently opened the door, slightly peeking if Tae's still there.

"Good, he's not here.." I said to myself as I finally opened the bathroom door wide. He's not in the room and the door was left open.

I took my chance and walked quickly to my closet. I grab a white shirt and shorts and a boxer.

"Yah, kook. You're working out, aren't you?" I startled at the sudden voice.

There I saw Taehyung standing beside me with a teasing grin plastered on his face.

"The fuck, you scared me." I said and glared at him. Hiding the hint of embarrassment with my almost naked body on display.

He chuckled. "Sorry, I was just grabbing some water downstairs. By the way, you seemed well toned. Getting sexy for someone?" He said teasing me again.

"Oh shut up.." I just ignored his tease and hurriedly went to the bathroom again, making sure it was locked.

"Jungkook!"

"W-what?" I asked while stammering, can't hide the fact that I'm so nervous around him.

"You should eat a lot, you're getting paler than usual." He said, sounding concerned.

"Okay, hyung.." I replied.

My heart was beating so fast..

'What if it won't fade away?'
