He's WHAT? (Taekook + Jihope) ✓

38

Hoseok picked the call after seeing Taehyung's name and wondered why the model called him.

"Hello?"

The brunette thought for a second why he called the older before he heard the other's 'hello'.

"Ah hyung. I hope I didn't disturb you."

He heard a small chuckle before the older answered.

"No no. Please go ahead."

Taehyung smiled when he heard that and spoke up.

"Can you tell me about Jungkook? I mean how his personality is? What is he like when he's not around others? You know what I mean."

He clearly heard a knowing sigh.

"I was actually waiting for you to ask me that one day. Don't mind me saying this but you are very obvious."

Taehyung rubbed his neck sheepishly as he giggled in the phone.

"I'm not experienced, hyung. Guide me, please."

The older hummed as he thought about where to start.

"For starters, keep doing what you're doing. He's a sucker for fluffiness but he doesn't show it. He likes to know he's being loved for who he is and not for his job. Also, he has trust issues. Extreme ones because he's a very sensitive kid. He never told me anything about the reason except for saying only this one time when he was drunk. 'Never let anyone know the real you. They'll only kick you around and it would be your own fault.' It took me one and a half year to get to the stage where he trusts me blindly now, except for the times when I tease him, of course *chuckle* but I still don't know what caused him to be like that. He doesn't talk about it at all. Let me tell you one thing though, he needs to be scolded once in a while to remind him that no matter what he can't cross his limits. I have scolded him only twice in all this time. It's necessary. Other than that he's just a toothless tiger. He's a softie who tries to look tough to keep an image."

Taehyung hummed every now and then nodding along. It seemed like he had everything he needed to know.

"Thanks a lot hyung. That means a lot to me."

The older laughed slightly before shaking his head even though they couldn't see each other.

"It's nothing. I'm glad he has someone like you in his life now. That kid needs to know that not everyone is out there to use him or hurt him. I don't know why does he have such a weak heart? I guess having no siblings makes you like that? I don't really know. I'm not that good at this.*chuckle*"

Taehyung hummed again and was about to end the call when he remembered something.

"Oh hyung? I needed to ask you one more thing."

"What is it?"

"Uh, how long have you and Jimin been dating for now?"

Slight coughing from the other side was the proof of the supposition being correct.

"I don't think you need to think about anything other than your own hopeless case, Taehyung-ssi. Have a good day."

The call ended making the model laugh at the personality of the older. This was why he liked Hoseok. The guy was really entertaining.

The brunette shook his head as he focused back on his task on hand. Jungkook.

"I'll see you tomorrow, Kookie."

He laid back down and started thinking about various scenarios with the two of them in them and didn't realize when he fell asleep.

----

"Do you have his number, Kook? I would very much like to know him."

Jungkook chuckled at the awestruck friend of his and shook his head.

"I do but don't tell him I told you about him. He likes to know that people approach him by searching for him instead of coming through a reference."

Minho nodded confidently at the information like he was fed.

"I won't ever hint that. I'll appear as a fan which I am. Now, his number. Hurry."

Jungkook smirked as he saved Taehyung's number in the older's phone and handed the device back.

"I think it's better if you meet him first and not show him you already have his number. I can set you up. Tomorrow, maybe?"

Minho grinned widely.

"Jungkook, this is the first and last time I'm saying this. I love you man. You're the best friend anyone could have in the whole world. Now, that didn't happen. Let's go meet this angel."

The brunette gagged at the use of the last word but received a punch on his arm making him laugh as the older came to stand next to him.

"Shut up. Now get up. Le's meet him."

The brunette raised an eyebrow at the slurred word in between and pushed the other back on the couch.

"Being drunk is not going to make the greatest impression. Stay put. We'll meet him tomorrow. Just don't give away that it's planned."

The older laughed slightly as he agreed and settled back emptying the bottle before shaking it to see if it really was empty.

"Finally I'll get someone who would kiss me in the morning."

Minho giggled as he spoke before standing up, slightly shaking his head feeling his vision getting a bit blurry.

"I'll need another bottle to celebrate."

He walked towards the kitchen and as the brunette saw him walk away he couldn't help but notice how the other's words didn't contain a single ounce of lust or greed. He was genuine even when he was a slightly drunk.

/Don't fall for it, Taehyung./

Jungkook widened his eyes at the thought and shook his head. What on earth did he just think? He needed him to fall for it. That was the whole point.

"Do you have only three bottles for me, Kook? I need more than that. I haven't had a drink in such a long time."

Minho said as he walked back holding two bottles of soju in his hands. Jungkook smiled at him shaking his useless thoughts away.

"We can get more. How much do you want?"

Minho chuckled and slumped back on the couch.

"I'm tired but also very happy so.... a hundred bottles."

The brunette laughed before shaking his head knowing well that three bottles were all the other needed to pass out.

"Okay. Finish these and we'll go out to get ninety seven remaining bottles."

Second bottle was half down in no time and Minho was having trouble keeping his tongue straight. When it was empty his head was bobbing. Jungkook watched in amusement as his friend got drunk to his limits and by the time the third bottle ended he was snoring.

"K.O."

The younger said and laughed. He was still lazily sipping the beer from his first can all this time since he couldn't afford to get drunk with anyone around unless it's Hoseok. The brunette chuckled again when he remembered the last time he got drunk before his memory was interrupted by the shuffling of the older so he got up to get the empty bottle out of his hand before settling him right on the couch. Jungkook walked to the kitchen to dispose of the empty bottles before he brought a pillow and a cover for his friend.

"Stop working so hard if you don't like it, idiot. Just live with me like I always tell you to. I could really use your company."

He mumbled as he carefully lifted the other's head to place a pillow under it making sure he doesn't hurt him.
