Learn To Live Again | Namkook

Chapter 26

Namjoon POV

Looking at Jungkook as I bite my lip, I watch as a blush creeps up his cheeks. Though, he tilts his head curiously at me.

"What about us, hyung?" He asks, seeming completely clueless as to what exactly about us I wanted to talk about.

"I... the kiss. Umm... Are you mad about that?" I ask, not really knowing how to get the right words out. Though, I watch as the blush on his cheeks deepens.

"No, hyung... I-I'm not mad about it." He mumbles softly.

"Are you sure?" I double check, wanting to be completely certain.

"I was never mad about it, hyung. I'm sorry for running off afterwards. I... I thought maybe you regretted it or something afterwards when you turned away." Jungkook explains shyly.

"I'm sorry, Jungkookie. I didn't mean for you to think that. I... I was embarrassed and panicked because I didn't really know how you felt or anything or if you felt the same." I tell him quietly, feeling myself beginning to blush.

"I dunno, hyung. How do you feel?" Kookie asks gently, looking at me intently with his head tilted cutely.

I really hope I'm making the right decisions right now and that I'm not actually messing everything up...

"I- Uhh... I really like you, Jungkook..." I confess shyly, rubbing the back of my neck nervously.

"I feel the same way, hyung... Bur, can I ask you something?" He says quietly. I nod my head as I look over at him. He pauses for a moment as he looks down at the couch before suddenly deciding to move closer to me as he moves to sit next to me.

"Why? Why me?" He asks, sounding oh so innocent and confused as he looks up at me.

Fuck, I could kiss him right now...

"Why wouldn't I? Who wouldn't, Jungkookie? You're the sweetest person I've ever met. You're sweet, your kind, caring, helpful, smart... you're a great person, Kookie. Not to mention that you're cute and adorable all the damn time." I admit softly.

Once again, the blush on his cheeks deepens before he looks up at me again. Biting my lip for a moment, I gently lean in and press my lips against his. It's only a short soft peck on the lips, but it lights my entire body up as I feel my cheeks heat up once more.

"The real question, Kookie, is why you would ever like me after everything." I tell him quietly. He frowns at me though.

"Hyung, just because you were struggling while you were hurting really badly doesn't mean that someone can't fall for you. I did. You're just as kind and caring as everyone claims I am, and you're extremely smart. You're a great person and a great person to be around all the time too. I wouldn't rather spend my time with anyone else most of the time." He says, and I can tell by the look in his eyes that he's serious.

Jungkook POV

As I look up at him, I can see the mild surprise in on his face. I don't understand why he's so surprised that I would think such things of him, though in all fairness, I was the same way.

Deciding to be brave, I lean in and peck his lips. However, as I begin to pull away, his hand reaches up to my cheek as he pulls me back in.

As we sit there in the kiss, our lips move perfectly in sync with each other. I can already feel my cheeks heating up, but force myself to ignore it as I relax into the kiss until he finally pulls away.

"Will you please be my boyfriend, Jungkook?" Namjoon asks softly, resting his forehead against mine. I can't help but grin at the question.

"Of course, hyung." Immediately, his faces lights up before he pecks my lips once again.

"It's still fairly early. Do we wanna head to campus now? We could still meet Taehyung for lunch and you could still make your last couple classes." He suggests before pecking my lips again, causing me to chuckle softly.

"Sure, hyung."

Twenty minutes later, we're walking into the building for the dining hall. Already, I can feel everyone looking at us. Though, I no longer know if it's for the usual reason or if it's because Namjoon hyung is holding my hand.

As we're walking through the halls, almost to the dining hall, Baekhyun and Jennie approach us. I frown, wishing that they would just leave me alone already.

"Well well well. What do we have here? Is the little weirdo even more fucked up than we thought?" Jennie sneers as they reach us.

"Leave him the fuck alone." Namjoon snaps at them, much to my own surprise.

"Aww did weirdo number two suddenly grow a voice from last time?" Baekhyun chuckles. Before any of us can react, Namjoon punches him in the jaw with his free hand. My eyes widen in surprise, not really knowing what to do or what'll happen now.

"Leave him the fuck alone. If you don't, both your asses will end up in a goddamn hospital. Now get the hell out of our sight." Namjoon growls at the two. They glare at us, scoffing as they walk off.

"Hyung, you didn't have to..." I try to say as I look up at him. However, he just leans down and pecks my lips.

"Nobody's bullying you anymore if there's anything I can do about it." He tells me with a smile before we head off the rest of the way to the dining hall.

I can't help but smile as I look down to my feet. This is the happiest I've been in over three years...

Hyungs, I really hope you're both doing better now. And I hope I haven't let either one of you down too much. I miss the both of you so much... but... I think I might be able to be okay and handle it now. Now that I've got Namjoon hyung by my side.
