Ch. Thirteen

Taehyung's POV

I walked straight into the restaurant, feeling confident as ever. I had dressed a little more nicely than I usually do, and I put on a smirk as I walked through the building.

People usually like confidence in a person, so I figured I'd give it all I got. But as soon as I walked towards the table that my friends were at, I felt myself melt away as my eyes met Jungkook's. Fuck. There it is again.

He was dressed as nicely as he was the other day, except this time he had a smaller smile and messier hair. I clenched my fists and walked towards the table, taking a seat.

The chair that I sat in was the very last one, and it was in between Jin and Jungkook.

I felt my whole body become more conscious in everything I did as I sat down. I wanted to be perfect and act better than normal.

  And for what? Him?

  I don't even know.

  I swallowed a lump in my throat as I thought of all the times I had run over Jungkook and I frowned as I thought about it. Why?

  Why am I feeling these emotions now?

  Why didn't I ever feel them before?

  I felt a hand on my shoulder and my mouth gaped open as I realized that Jungkook was holding onto me. "You good?" He laughed.

  There was a waitress staring at me along with everyone else as I just sat there in my thoughts.

  "Oh.." Was all I could say.

  "What would you like to drink?" The waitress asked with a kind smile, despite me not even paying attention to her. I was paying attention to Jungkook's hand slowly sliding down my arm as he finally unfortunately let go of me.

  "Uh- I'll have tea." I told her.

  I faked a smile as she nodded and turned to go get our drinks. I sighed to myself. Jin noticed how odd I was being and he nudged me.

  "I gotta use the restroom." Jin said as he sent me a pointed look. "Wanna come with me?"

  I furrowed my eyebrows and pouted at him.

  "I wanna come!" Jimin smiled. Jin glared at him and shook his head as Jimin sat up.

"Sit back down," He said sternly.

Jimin frowned and hid himself behind Namjoon as he whined. "But I needed to pee." He said with glossy eyes. Jin told him to go later and then dragged me to the back.

"What's going on?" Jin asked as soon as he opened the door to the men's bathroom.

"I see no point in lying to you, Jinnie." I told him as he leaned against the wall. "But I'm sorry, I can't tell you right now." I said.

He furrowed his eyebrows and crossed his arms. "Why can't you tell me?" He asked.

"It's personal." I shrugged.

"Yeah," Jin shrugged as well. "The fact that you want to shove your dick up Jungkook's ass is very personal, but it's nothing to stress about. And if you hurt him, don't even think about coming to me for advice." He said.

  I furrowed my eyebrows and frowned at the thought that Jin couldn't even trust me even if we had been friends for nearly four years.

  "Jin, I'm not going to hurt him. He doesn't even like me." I frowned at him. He shook his head and chuckled at me.

  "It doesn't take long for someone like J.K. to fall in love, Taehyung." Jin said as he opened the door and walked out of the bathroom.

  I stood there confused for long enough that Jimin walked in, needing to "Pee." I sighed and finally walked out of the room, going to the table that already had our drinks there.

  I saw Jungkook smiling at something that Yoongi was saying, and I sat down in my seat.

  I got a glance from Jungkook, but I tried my hardest to not look at him. "Oh my God." I heard Namjoon groan. I looked up at him, but he was looking at Hoseok and Yoongi as they snuggled up and waited for their order.

  "I'm sorry that I have a relationship and you don't." Hoseok said to him with a laugh.

  Jin sipped his drink and reached out to place his hand on top of Namjoon's. "I can change that for you, Joonie." Jin joked to him.

  Namjoon smacked Jin's hand and I nearly spit out my drink as I laughed loudly at his actions. Everyone else at the table began laughing too, and I could see Jungkook looking at me from the corner of my eyes.

  I turned to him and wiped a tear away.

  "What is it?" I said, my laughter still dying.

  Jungkook smiled at me and his eyes scrunched up. "I've never even heard you laugh like that before." He said as he fiddled with his shirt, looking adorable as ever.

  I poked out my lips and pouted.

  "You make me sound boring." I joked.

  Everyone else had stopped paying attention to us as our voices got quieter, being washed out by everyone else's loud conversations.

  "Then maybe you should smile more." Jungkook half-whispered to me as he looked into my eyes with his big doe ones.

  My mouth slightly opened as he turned away and started getting in on another conversation. I quickly took out my phone and started typing as fast as possible.

Me
  There's no doubt about it.

  They're fucking perfect.

  Jungkook looked confused as he reached in his pocket. He furrowed his eyebrows, but then raised them as he stared down at his lap.

  He looked up at everyone and smiled weakly. "I- I gotta go home." He said as he looked at Hoseok, followed by a glance at Jin.

  "Why?" Jin asked as Jungkook stood up.

  "Emergency." Jungkook took his jacket from his chair and started heading for the door.

  I frowned at the thought of something bad happening at home for him. I hope he's okay.
