Cabin - k.th. + j.jg. [TaeKook]

⟡ 13 ⟡

Boarding school was much different from Elementary school. All of the teachers had upped their game, students lived on the school, and the hierarchy mattered. A lot. It was by the fourth or fifth week he found out how much the hierarchy did control your standing on the private school. 

Taehyung had together with Will quite literally stumbled upon a scene of two upperclassmen pushing a kid from their grade around. Taehyung was just about to interfere, but Willam had stopped him, telling him it was not worth it.

Turns out the news about the bullying would spread quicker than expected. Supposedly, the kid had been wearing fake Gucci, and so the teasing had turned to bullying in the matter of a few weeks.

Taehyung didn't find it fair. Fake Gucci was a crime, but violating somebody in terms of physical and mental harm was in no way okay. Yet Taehyung couldn't do anything to stop it.

Instead he had approached the kid when nobody was around, and had lend him one of his real Gucci shirts. It had stunned the bullies the next day when he wore it to class, and the teasing stopped momentarily, but the damage had been done. 

Quickly, the hierarchy had been established. Taehyung and his roommates were far above average. It might've had something to do with Chris knowing some of the older students, and so he and his roommates instantly seemed cooler, earning a higher spot in the caste.

But Christmas break had already passed, and the roles had already been established long ago.

For some reason, Taehyung didn't want to return to the school when he was home. The 'some reason' maybe being Jeongguk. Okay, positively being Jeongguk.

"Tae! We need all the pillows!" Jeongguk yelled in excitement, as he bounced around on top of Taehyung's bed. The older stared fondly at Jeongguk, as he went to retrieve even more pillows and blankets.

Jeongguk was staying over for a double sleepover, during the days in-between Christmas and new years eve. Both parties had been excited about seeing the other after a few months apart.

So excited, that Jeongguk ran into Taehyung's embrace as soon as he saw the older waiting outside the house. 

"Aren't I too heavy?" The younger had asked, and Taehyung proudly shook his head to the rhythm of his arms shaking from the weight they carried. But Jeongguk was happy, and his smile somehow boosted Taehyung's adrenaline, carrying the younger all the way to the living room.

Jeongguk then dropped down onto the older's bed, looking Taehyung directly into his eyes and smiling widely at him. Taehyung dropped the soft blankets onto Jeongguk, not sure if it was intentional.

Taehyung wouldn't mind seeing Jeongguk smile like that forever.

After a minor pillow fight, both had fallen asleep next to each other, legs tangled together, and Jeongguk's face positioned right in front of Taehyung's face. Jeongguk was already asleep, but the older couldn't help but stare at Jeongguk's face.

Jeongguk took a peaceful breath as Taehyung ghosted his fingertips across his lips, and Tae could feel the hot air on his fingers. He smiled to himself, as he closed his eyes, and fell asleep within minutes.

Lips. Taehyung couldn't stop thinking about them. Not even as he walked down the corridor alone, backpack swung over one shoulder as he went around looking for a spot that was not occupied by people.

Taehyung was certain that he had never seen lips like Jeongguk's. And it frustrated him. Why did lips matter so much to him? And why Jeongguk's? They never had, so why did they suddenly pop up in his head during all classes of the day. And why did they make him so flustered.

The worst part was, that it wasn't just a fixation on lips. It was a fixation on the soft, plumb, rose-colored lips on Jeongguk Jeon.

Taehyung stopped, and turned towards a wall, only to place both hands on the wall, and get ready to bang his head against it. Maybe that would stop the thoughts from flying around his head. But before he could complete the action, strange sounds stopped him.

He looked the way he was walking down, only to realize he had somehow managed to walk to one of the spots his sister had told him about. A making out spot.

Taehyung's breath hitched, and he made sure to be very quiet. He was not alone.

As he slowly tip-toed by the wall, he came to stop just before the corner begun. The smacking sounds got louder. Weird, Taehyung thought. What could make such a sound?

As his curiosity got to the best of him, Taehyung slowly leaned forwards, making sure he could see what was going on, without the potential people seeing him.

But what he saw was a sight he had not planned on seeing.

Two upperclassmen were stood closely together, the girl pressed against the wall, and the boy pinning her to it. If Taehyung was not wrong, they were either in 3rd or last year.

Taehyung looked away fast as a lightning and turned around, power-walking as quietly as he could down the corridor, away from the scene in hopes that it would disappear.

Unfortunately it had burned itself onto his retina.

He quickly returned to his room and placed his backpack by the desk, only to flop onto the bed, head engulfed by the pillows. His eyes were not betraying him. He had just seen two students right in the middle of making out. 

It was messy, and everything Taehyung had not expected making out to be about. But then again, he had never been sure what making out was really. His sister had called it a making out spot, and the two were doing that on that spot, so it must have been making out.

He sighed once, and stood up to change into his PJs. It was late already, so he decided to sleep. A whole new day could be good for him. 

As he tucked himself in and closed his eyes. It was not the two upperclassmen making out who occupied his mind that night. 

It was him and Jeongguk laying down side by side, heads turned to each other as their lips touched each other faintly ever so often.

Hello all! I hope you enjoyed the update. It was filled with confusion, and pre-teen behavior, but that's just how we like it in this house.

I'm no 10 year-old boy myself, so I'm not sure exactly what's going on inside of Taehyung's mind in this story. But I'm trying? ;_;

The next couple of chapter's will have some extreme time skips (like 6-7 months at a time), because it's about damn time we get some real teen-taekook. (but also because I don't want to make 7 filler chapters within the next 10 chapters lmao oops)

Thank you for all the votes and comments I get on each chapter. It is truly what inspires me to continue writing this story <3
