Chapter 6.1

I'm sorry, it's been such a long time since I updated..!!
I simply forgot about it😅

Well here is the continuation

___________________--___________________

As soon as Taehyung and Jungkook returned to the group it seemed evident that their absence had been registered but not really cared for. After all it was not unusual for the two youngest to disappear together.
The unusual thing was what they did together while they were gone.

But how should they know, since it was still so new to themselves.

Also Taehyung was his normal, bumpy self, after he had recovered rather quickly, skipping straight over to his same aged friend. If Jungkook wouldn’t have been so happy right now he would probably sulk over the fact that his boyfriend just left his side to run to his friend. But oh well, he WAS so fucking happy right now, after all Tae was his BOYFRIEND!
With this kind of mind Jungkook just followed him and tried his best not to grin from ear to ear, so the others wouldn’t start to ask what happened.

Hoseok greeted them with a smile and a short wave while Namjoon nodded briefly before he continued his conversation with J-Hope.
Jin had his back turned to them, looking at his phone swiping up and down furiously.
And Yoongi was lying down, spread out over three chairs, eyes closed, surely sound asleep.

Jimin was the only one who seemed to have a pretty good idea of what they’ve done, given the look he inspected Tae’s still a little dishevelled hair and then studied his red, swollen lips. Only as he stared at a red mark on V’s neck that Jungkook didn’t notice until yet, he knew he hadn’t succeeded in his attempt to do it 'lightly'. Fortunately it was only faint and with a bit of luck it would disappear by the next day.

But Jimin was not the only one staring at Taehyung, how Jungkook discovered when he tore his eyes from V.
Jin had turned around and looked at Tae before letting his gaze travel to Jungkook. When he noticed the maknae looking back he smiled briefly and went over to Yoongi, sitting in a chair opposite to his face and said something to him Jungkook couldn’t understand.

Wait! Yoongi? Why Yoongi? Of course, they were roommates, but beside that they hadn’t really much in common. Naturally, they liked and respected each other, with Jin being one of the few people actually being able to put Yoongi in his place when he was too savage, but they didn’t interact that often throughout the day.
Jin would usually look for Namjoon, Jungkook or the rest of the maknae line. And Yoongi preferred to be alone; at least that’s what he always said. In truth he seemed to secretly enjoy being bothered by the lively members, especially Jimin and Hoseok but he couldn’t escape Taehyung’s charm either.

Nevertheless, everyone knew that waking up a sleeping Suga could end fatal, so what was Jin doing?

Just his luck Yoongi wasn’t asleep. He opened an eye, looked at Jin and shrugged his shoulders. After a short answer he closed his eye again to signalize the conversation was over.
Jin stared disbelievingly at Suga before he talked to him for a bit longer. Once he recognize he wouldn't get another reaction out of Yoongi, he gave up and walked over to Namjoon and Hoseok instead, ears bright red like Jungkook registered now.
A very obvious sign something was going on. Jin could look all normal and act like himself, but his ears would give him away ultimately.

The first thought Jungkook stroke was that Jin knew about him and Tae.
But he dropped that idea as fast as he had it. Jin wouldn’t consult with Yoongi of all people if it was about them. No, about anything that was not related to Namjoon, Jin would consult Namjoon. Jungkook was just a bit too self-conscious, that was all.

Consequently it must have had something to do with Namjoon. Jungkook was curious as to what it was but if Jin didn’t decide to ask him about it, it was none of his business.
Jungkook really liked his oldest hyung, they had much in common after all, and he was always proud when the other trusted in him and told him about his worries and troubles. The maknae helped gladly if it was in his might.
Jin often came to Jungkook for advice if Namjoon couldn’t help or when he wanted a second opinion.
Therefore Jungkook knew that if Jin wanted to talk about it, he’d look for the younger out of his own will. As long as he didn’t approach him first it was like telling Jungkook that it was none of his business.

Thus Jungkook just watched him trying to act normal with his ears telling another story and hoped the other was all right.

Jungkook’s worries must have shown on his face because he could suddenly feel a hand caress the back of his neck and playing with his hair.
It was a caring gesture or more like a habit Tae and him had developed to calm each other down

It was intimate but still amicably. The warm touch reassured the other that someone was by their side and would hold their back whatever happened.

When Jungkook turned his head to look at the face that belonged to the calming hand on his neck, Taeyhung was looking straight into his eyes. Jungkook smiled at him to reassure him everything was all right. Tae ignored the smile and searched his eyes instead to know if he had to worry or not.
It seemed like he was content with what he found since he nodded and turned back to Jimin, leaving his hand where it was.

Jungkook decided it wouldn’t help anyone to ponder over it. Jin would come to him when he wanted to.
With that Jungkook directed his attention towards the two friends who were once again bickering over whose photos had been taken better; perfect timing to mock Jimin a bit.
