'I just wanted to say thank you. And I am so sorry for thinking about your question last night so long. But yes. I would really like to be your girlfriend'

Girlfriend?' Taehyung stutters. He doesn't know what happens. In front of him is the girl from the party he woke up with. Now she confessed that she wants to be his girlfriend. Did he really ask her out when he was drunk? Did she not realize that he was the opposite of sober back then?
'Ehm sorry?' He asks carefully a bit afraid of her reaction. Girls could be beasts if they wanted to. Especially when love is involved. Taehyung saw many of those scenarios in university. Often people break up or they cheat on each other. It's pretty dramatic and Taehyung is sick of this shit.
'I know it's early and we don't know each other long. But it was your brilliant idea that makes us get to know each other.' She answers while Jungkook giggles silently next to Taehyung.
'Shut up and help me' He hisses and narrows his eyes. Surprisingly Jungkook reaches out to grab Taehyungs hand. 'Sorry honey but he was totally drunk at the party. He isn't interested, are you?' He says and flashes a charming smile to Taehyung.
Taehyungs cheeks turn deep red. That wasn't what he meant when he pleaded Jungkook to help him but it was helpful.
'Oh... ah-h. I mean sorry. I didn't know you two are a... thing. That's so embarrassing. Ok. Ya ciao. See you around. I guess' she rambles and disappears.
The moment she is gone Taehyung tries to remove his hand out of Jungkooks grip but it only tightens. He watches the genie questionably but he ignores his gaze and just leads him to the nearest restaurant: Italian.
At the table, Jungkook finally loses his grip at Taehyungs hand and he takes the opportunity to put his hand in the pocket of his jacket. They sit on a table in the corner where they ignore each other and just stare at strangers who eat peacefully. A waitress takes their order and after another minute of silence, Taehyung coughs slightly.
'So..' he begins and the genie tilts his head and their eyes meet. Taehyung is out of guard. He never realized how beautiful his eyes were. Jungkooks eyes aren't only brown. They sparkle magically and it matches his chestnut colored hair. Some strands fall loosely over his forehead. 'Tae?' Jungkook asks and waves a hand in front of his face. Taehyung snaps back to reality. 'Ugh yes, I wanted to ask you why you..' he stutters. 'Because that's the only way to get rid of a clingy girl. I have experience.' Jungkook interrupts him. He knew exactly what Taehyung had in his mind.
But he holds his hand longer than needed. His hand was warm and soft and Taehyung really wanted to touch it again. 'Ugh no, what are you thinking' Taehyung mutters under his breath, disgusted by his own thoughts.
'I used to date and hook a lot when I was younger. I've met so annoying girls and... ya' he nervously laughs and scratch his back of the neck.
That might explain everything. He really just wanted to help him. Twice a day. That couldn't be a coincidence. Of course, he explained everything to him, his behavior and the reasons why he acts as he does. But it's so sudden. Out of nowhere. Why he hadn't told him earlier? There must be more. And he'll find out.
'Can we get some shots?' Taehyung screams to the waitress who looks a bit confused but still nods. His head turns again to Jungkook and their gaze locks. 'You really want to drink again?' Jungkook asks puzzled.
Taehyung nods. He wants to get him drunk. It'll make him talk about all the thing's Taehyung want. 'Ok then. But promise me you don't flirt with girls and vomit in public' the genie says and shrugs.
A few shots later
'Oh my god, you are so drunk. Let's get out of here' Jungkook commands. Taehyung isn't that resistant to liquor like Jungkook and he was drunk just after 3 shots. His plan didn't work that well as he thought.
Jungkook pays the bill and puts Taehyungs arm over his shoulder to stabilize him. Arm in arm they walk back to the apartment. Now Taehyung is drunk, without answers and has to go to university tomorrow morning.
What happened to him that all he cared about is a genie and throw away his own life? Someone he doesn't know at all, someone who just uses his money, someone who isn't honest and someone just wants to disappear again.
Someone who cares about as he does. But the problem is he doesn't know.
