Sacrifices (vkook)

85

Jungkook lies in bed playing with Taehyung's hair while the other read a book on his phone that he found far more interesting than his fiancé right now.

Jungkook doesn't mind though, he likes watching Taehyung's facial expressions change as the story progresses.

It was the weekend before Jungkook's birthday and his mother had called giving him the time off, it was probably the most decent conversation he's had with his mother in the past three weeks.

His friends had pestered him about going out to celebrate but he wasn't a fan of birthdays, mostly because he hated having the spotlight on him even just for a day. He hated getting sung to and he hated people giving him gifts he could have lived without.

But nevertheless they are dragging him out tomorrow night to celebrate him surviving another year.

Jungkook's phone buzzes against the side dresser and he groans, pulling away from Taehyung and sitting up to answer.

He doesn't recognize the number but he answers anyway. "Hello?"

    "Hello? Is this Jungkook?" A female voice comes through the line.

    "Haeun-noona?" Jungkook asks after recognizing the voice.

    "Jungkook-ah! So this is your number then." The woman laughs on the other line.

Jungkook sees Taehyung turn around out of the corner of his eye as he laughs. "Um, yeah it is."

    "I know I probably sound like a stalker now but, I knew your birthday was on Monday and I still wanted to get you that drink I promised, so I looked your number up." Haeun says.

    "Ah, Noona. I already told you that you didn't have to, I hate birthdays." Jungkook says trying be nice about declining her offer.

    "Ah, ah, ah. I said I was holding you to it and I meant it. Let your Noona take care of you for your birthday." Haeun says in a whiny voice that Jungkook can't help but find just a little adorable.

    "Fine, Monday night then?" He gives in rolling his eyes.

     "Yes, Monday night on me." Haeun says enthusiastically.

Jungkook chuckles. "I'll see you then, Haeun-noona. Thank you."

    "Yah, don't thank me. It's my pleasure honestly." She laughs. "Monday then."

    "Monday then." Jungkook says pulling the phone away from his ear and hanging up with a sigh before turning back to Taehyung who is glaring at him. "What?"

The other lies back down, tapping angrily away at his screen.

Taehyungie 💜: who's Haeun and why is she taking you away on your birthday?

Jungkook reads the message when it pops up. "Oh, she's a noona from work. She got transferred to the company as a secretary."
