In Front Of You - Jikook

-twenty-three-

"I like this photo, the colours glowed really well in this one." Jimin pointed to the further-left printed picture, but Jungkook wasn't paying attention to what he was really saying.

They were sitting on the floor. The barista staying in Jungkook's house for the night like always, helping him sort out papers and edit with the photographer. The older had an eyes for beauty and kept all details in mind; the theme, aesthetics, the quality, etc. He took everything into consideration and Jungkook appreciated everything he has been doing for him. He just couldn't take his eyes off his hyung at the moment, and that drove him nuts. Jimin's eyebrows were furrowed with concentration, piling the good ones on one side and putting them in an envelope.

Jungkook was resting his face on his hand and blatantly stared, just completely hypnotized by his hyung beside him. He doesn't even realize that the small smirk from Jimin kept on growing as he stared longer. "You know Jungkookie, if you want to stare, you can always just take a photo. You're good at that anyway." He joked and laughed when the red blush from the other covered his face.

"I-I'm sorry h-hyung!" The younger stamped and hid his face with two hands. The bright laughter from the other coloured the room with sweetness. His gentle hands took a hold of Jungkook's and took them away from his face. With such a melting kind smile, Jimin said: "You get embarrassed by the simplest things, it's cute.". It loosened up Jungkook for a bit but of course, the compliment itself made him blush harder.

"N-no it's not, it's so annoying," Jungkook complained and sighed, wiggled his hands away from Jimin before fanning his face to hide his burning cheeks. "It's not annoying, it's adorable~" The older squishes his cheeks, a cheekily look in his eyes stood out and he continued on mushing and playing with his cheeks. The younger just grumbled and pushed off the other but the joking smile that he couldn't hide peeked, wrinkling his eyes and showing off his bunny-like teeth.

Jimin let go off him and pushed off the pictures away. He jumped on the bed and looked at Jungkook. "Let's sleep. It's getting late and you have an early day tomorrow.". The brunette just nodded and piled up the selected photos into one folder before he climbed into bed as well. As Jimin closed the lamp next to the bed, he laid down quietly and curled up facing Jimin.

Peeks of the streetlights pass through the curtains, a tinge of orange painted the walls, not completely though. The air was still yet comfortable, just like how they were. The quiet breathing of the two calm both of them until Jungkook interrupted the silence. "Hey hyung?". "Yeah?" the other whispered, turning to the younger. Jungkook twisted and moved closer to Jimin. The space between them slowly lessened as their legs begin to tangle and the blanket covered both bodies.

"Can you start bringing me breakfast every day? I know its too much, you don't have to do it I promise, but..." The brunette's voice trailed off and he looked up to his hyung. Even in the dark, the fierceness of Jimin's gaze was still there. No matter how kind, soft or happy his expression is, it will always have an effect on Jungkook. The younger can't pinpoint how come he hasn't got used to it yet, he spends most days with the older anyways.

Jimin looked down to Jungkook with a mixture of sleepiness and curiosity. "But what?" He asked, scooting a little closer than before. The younger, surprisingly, looked into his eyes back, keeping eye contact. Normally, he would have looked somewhere else or stamper away but it was clear how sincere and in a way innocent in the way that he acts.

Jungkook just gave him a small smile, "I love anything that you make and I just want you to bring me breakfast.". The other smiled slowly "Just that?". Jungkook gulped and closed his eyes as he moved his head down "I want a way to see you too, while I-I work..." Jimin just closed his eyes and moved his head on top of the other. His soft hair wasn't bothersome so he just gave Jungkook a quiet chuckle. Taking the younger in an embrace, he slowly slipped into slumber with the last few words echoed in his mind.

With bent knees, Jungkook pointed the camera to the model ahead. A beautiful woman was holding a baby blue purse, placed her arm around the gorgeous man beside her. Nothing unexpected from the model as his ocean-blue contacted eyes look directly at the camera. As they stand in front of a transparent blue pond, Taehyung and the woman stood out in the scenery. With Taehyung's royal blue scheme and the woman's paler shades of blue, they effortlessly posed for the camera, branding the clothes they were wearing.

Jungkook repeated his shots as he tried to get the right angles and the perfect lighting. The crew trying their best to make the environment workable for Jungkook and he was working perfectly fine. They were in their second week and every passing day, the clothes just kept getting expensive and the quality of the pictures was just beautiful. As he took enough shots, he put his hand up and the couple dispersed away from their poses.

"Jungkookie?" A familiar sound was like a melody to the photographer's ears. With the camera still near his face, he turned to the direction of the voice and through the lenses he saw Jimin.W ith the cafe uniform on, he was holding a neatly folded paper bag and one cup. In shock, Jungkook pressed his finger on the button and snapped the moment of disbelief. He blinked and set down the camera, stood up and smiled brightly at the other. He ran quickly to the male and gave him a huge bear hug.

Jungkook excitedly said "You actually made me breakfast!" and laughed. Jimin joined in with the laughter, with his hands occupied, he just wrapped his arms around the other's back. "Of course. I made it just for you." He said and handed the younger the food. "I thought you weren't coming because it's already lunch." Jungkook looked in the contents of the back and smiled when he saw a neatly boxed stack of pancakes and packets of syrup. Jimin dusted his uniform and scratched the back of his neck, "Yeah, the cafe was busy today. Apparently, we're gaining more popularity because of Mr Pretty Face back there." The silver-haired rolled his eyes by the thought of Jin. "I guess this is my brunch then." Jungkook hooked his arm around Jimin's free one and dragged him to the staff table.

Jimin looked around in awe as busy workers started to change the materials and helped with the dress change of the two models. The stunning woman walked passed the two, grinning kindly to the photographer as other staff were fixing her hair.

"I saw the shots, they were beautiful! You have been one of the best photographers I've worked with. Thank you so much." The woman gratefully said and gave the two a small bow before rushing back into the changing booth.

Suddenly, Taehyung appeared beside Jungkook, taking the paper bag from his hand "She's right. You always take beautiful photos. Simply from the best." He winked at him before he took the pancakes inside. "T-thank you hyung," Jungkook said politely but he watched nervously as the other opened the pancakes. "You know you don't have to buy food elsewhere. My assistant can just give you whatever you want, just tell her." The model exclaimed as he opened the box and took a small bite. "Good pancakes though. Your boyfriend probably made with love." He winked mischievously once again before setting down the box and walking in his own changing booth. "I'm not his boyfriend-" Jimin said but it was too late as the model pushed inside and completely ignored his statement.

Jungkook turned to Jimin, who had one eyebrow cocked up. He set a gentle hand on the other's chest and gave him a kind smile. "I'm sure that the pancakes are amazing." He reassured and as he was about to take the box, Jimin quickly took it first and poured the syrup on them. The coldness on his face a while ago faded and with delight, he took a forkful of food and turned it towards the younger "Why don't you try it out?". Jungkook chuckled before pushing his head to the fork and taking a bite.

The perfect amount of firmness from the pancake and the sweetness from the pancake warmed his heart. Jimin fed him the whole time until he finished the whole meal. He felt relaxed and happy even at work and that made his whole day. As he drank his Cappuccino, Jimin told him about his day and he was contented with that. He rambled on about his too and he could feel his heart melting with please. The bright barista really did made everything with love, everything for the precious photographer.
