BEST FRIENDS

*two weeks later*

Taehyung turned around in his bed and groaned at the sudden knocking at the door that woke him up.

"Come in." He said in a low, raspy voice.

"Hey Tae- the fuck, you're still in bed? Jeez, I swear it's like 2pm already." Jimin scowled as he walked inside the room, closing the door behind him.

"Well hello to you too dumbass." Taehyung rolled his eyes while sitting up in his bed. He yawned and stretched his muscles until some of them popped, he sighed in relief and relaxed once again.

"Well anyway, I bought some coffee and doughnuts." Jimin stated before sitting beside Taehyung on the bed.

"Wow, thanks Chim." Taehyung said surprised before grabbing a cup and taking a sip. "So what do you need?"

Jimin rolled his eyes, "just because I brought you something doesn't mean I need anything. Can't I just be nice to my friend and want to visit him for once?"

Taehyung chuckled before taking a bite of the doughnut, Jimin following his actions.

"I guess." He shrugged, "I mean I haven't seen you in a while honestly. How's it going with Yoongi? Did he get that job he wanted?"

Jimin smiled, a small blush creeping on his cheeks. "Yeah, we're doing great. And yes he got the job. It's not anything big, but still good enough to make enough money for the apartment he bought recently."

"I'm glad." Taehyung smiled, but for some reason his heart ached a little.

"And how you've been doing?" Jimin spoke softly, his eyebrows furrowing in concern.

"I'm okay." Taehyung lied before stuffing his face with the doughnut and finishing it seconds later.

"Tae." Jimin put his hand on Taehyung's shoulder and shifted around so that he was now facing him. "We both know you're not okay. You literally haven't left your house in two weeks."

Taehyung averted his eyes away from the older, feeling a little embarrassed. He traced his finger around the cup he was holding and just shrugged.

"Is it... Is it about Jungkook?"

Taehyung's heart skipped a beat and his eyes widened.

"What? N-no of course not. Why would it be about him?" Taehyung tried to defence himself but knew he won't win against Jimin.

Jimin sighed and shook his head. "Tae, I know you like him alright, there's no point hiding that. But the question here is, how much longer are you going to keep it from him?"

Taehyung stared at him shocked for a few moments, "h-how did you-"

"Oh come on, it's obvious," he rolled his eyes. "Do you think I'm blind? You literally made out with him on that party like your life depended on it, and I've seen the way you look at him. Also me and Lisa kinda shipped you guys for a while now. Remember the game, spin the bottle? Yeah, that was our idea to play it and test if we were right."

Taehyung just sat there dumbfounded, listening and slowly processing every single word that left his friend's mouth.

Jimin chucked when he saw his expression. "So? When will you finally tell him?" He raised an eyebrow.
