Pick Up Lines (Taejoon)

17

Jin finally arrived awhile later. Namjoon texted him that he and Taehyung we in the conference room. the older man came barging in quite loudly, announcing he had brought dinner with him. Namjoon smiled but out of the corner of his eye he could see Taehyung scowling.

Success.

But it didn't feel like success.

Jin went immediately to Namjoon's side, placing a quick kiss on his cheek. Namjoon saw Jin's eyes go directly to Taehyung's as if challenging him. His cheeks heated up and he cleared his throat. The oldest and youngest in the room seemed to be having some kind of staring contest and it was making Namjoon incredibly uncomfortable.

"Thank you for dinner, hyung." he pulled on Jin's sleeve lightly.

the older broke his gaze with Taehyung, smiling down at Namjoon, "No worries, my dear." he set the food out, sliding Taehyung a burger and fries as well. It made Namjoon feel good inside that, despite whatever kind of feud they were having, Jin still cared enough to get him a good sized meal.

Jin put a few hamburgers on the table - enough for one or two for each of them. It was honestly way too much food but Jin kept saying none of it would go to waste. he was true to his word and finished everything he had gotten for himself along with half of Namjoon and Taehyung's meals as well. It was that night that Namjoon learned Jin loved food.

"I didn't know you would be here tonight, hyung." Taehyung's deep voice broke through their silence of eating.

Jin smiled, his eyes cutting to Namjoon, "Well, of course. I couldn't leave you two all alone."

After dinner was mostly finished - save a carton fries and a few bites left of Jin's burger - Namjoon left to go to the restroom, leaving Taehyung and Jin alone with each other. the moment he was gone, Jin's pleasant façade crumbled. He frowned, crossing his arms over his chest, "Just what do you think you're doing?"

Taehyung played innocent, his eyes widening in mock surprise, "I have no idea what you're talking about."

Jin let out a sound that was something like a growl, "Stop lying, Tae. Why did you tell me he was straight?"

The other shrugged, "I thought he was." he licked his fingers and wiped them off on a napkin before he pulled his laptop closer to himself, beginning to fill in the data sheets he needed to complete.

Jin sat back his own eyes widening as something dawned on him, "Oh my god, you like him don't you?" he began to laugh. First it started as a chuckle but became his signature squeaky windshield wiper laugh.

Taehyung scowled, "What so funny? You yourself said he was hot."

Jin slowly stopped his laughing, trying to keep it in as he coughed a few times, "He is. But now he's mine so why don't you back off?"

The younger scoffed, "You just want him in your bed."

"And you don't?"

Taehyung snapped his jaw closed. He had no response to that. Jin noticed his dilemma and laughed again.

"Look Tae, you can't keep up with me. Sure, you're a handsome guy but let's agree I'm far more handsome." he paused a moment, grinning, "I'm worldwide handsome."

"Ok then, it's on." Taehyung grumble, pushing his laptop back and crossing his arms. Work was the last thing on his mind.

Jin took on a look of grim determination, "Fine. First one to kiss him wins."

Taehyung laughed, "I've already kissed him twice." he held up two fingers with a smug air.

Jin scoffed, "Liar."

Taehyung just laughed at the older, "You can ask him. I have kissed him twice." he leaned back in his chair, taking on a wistful look as he remembered, "He has some nice lips , hyung."

Namjoon walked back into the room, sensing the tense air between the two of them. Jin looking annoyed and ticked off and Taehyung looking smug, an evil glint glittering in his dark eyes. Jin's head whipped up at the sound of Namjoon entering. He broke out into a smile beckoning the man closer.

He turned back to Taehyung for a moment, his expression dropping into a scowl, "We'll finish this later."
