Open Up | Taekook

Chapter 12

Taehyung POV

Waking up to the sound of the bedroom door opening, I groggily open my eyes to glance over in the direction of the sound. It takes a minute for my tired vision to clear up, surprised when I find Jin hyung stood in the doorway.

"It's dinner time, you two. Come on." Jin says loudly, seeming to want to wake Yoongi up as well. He's successful at this, Yoongi stirring against my chest as he whimpers softly. He rolls over onto his back, stretching his body out a bit to probably wake up as the cutest sound I've ever heard spills from his lips. I can't help but grin, reaching up and brushing his hair out of his eyes gently as he opens his eyes.

"Dinner time." I murmur softly, trying not to think about kissing his lips once again. Granted, I probably would if Jin hyung weren't still stood in the doorway, Yoongi certainly hadn't protested when I kissed him the first time. He pouts at what I imagine is my lack of kissing him, causing my smile to grow before glancing over at Jin hyung for just a mere second. Thankfully, Yoongi seems to catch the message, rolling his head to the side to find Jin stood there as well. I swallow hard as I pull my gaze away from his lips again, thinking back to how soft they'd been and how much it seemed to calm him down. He actually gave into it so sweetly, almost as though he'd been waiting for it. Though, I know I shouldn't have and shouldn't be thinking of doing it again, not after whatever happened between him and Jimin.

Both of us climb out of bed, me following behind Yoongi as we make our way towards the door. Though, I quickly find out why Jin didn't move from the doorway when he sticks his hand out in front of me, keeping me inside the room. I look over to him in confusion, watching as he shuts the door behind him quietly.

"What's wrong?" I question with a frown, taking a couple of steps back so that I'm not directly in front of him. He gives me a small frown in return though, shaking his head at me.

"I think you need to be giving Yoongi some space." Jin says softly, still frowning. This only causes mine to grow though, not liking what he's suggesting.

"Why?" I question, trying hard not to pout or simply throw a fit. He gives me a disapproving look though.

"Did you know that Yoongi and Jimin are dating? That Jimin's his boyfriend?" Jin questions with a sigh. My face drops just a little bit at this, having somewhat connected the dots but not having wanted to have it confirmed.

"So?" I ask, trying not to sound arrogant or disappointed or anything. He rolls his eyes at this, clearly not liking my response.

"Tae, I don't want you getting in the middle of what's going on with them. It's bad enough that you had to be there for Jimin exploding on Yoongi and telling him that they needed to take a break. And from the sounds of it from Namjoon, it would sound that you were the cause for that. Because Jimin walked in to you cuddling with Yoongi. They've been together for four years now, Tae. They mean more to each other than I've ever seen any couple care for each other before. I really don't want you getting in the middle of it, I don't want to see you getting hurt." Jin tells me before opening the door again, signifying that he's ending the conversation.

I just bite my lip, not responding to this information as I exit my bedroom and begin to head down the hall towards the stairs. I don't want to argue with him about it, knowing it's definitely not the place to be telling him about the kiss obviously. I certainly won't be telling him about the kiss. Or the fact that Yoongi certainly didn't seem against the idea.

Instead, I simply stay silent and walk over to the kitchen, finding everyone already sat at the table. Yoongi's gaze is trained directly on the table, Jimin seemingly looking over at the older boy with a saddened look in his eyes. Though, as I make my way towards the table, his gaze shifts to me, before shifting to the younger who's sat at his side with his head on his shoulder. I feel a pang in my chest at the sight of Jungkook with his head on Jimin's shoulder, an exhausted look in his eyes.

"Jungkook, are you feeling okay? What happened with classes today? What happened?" Jin immediately questions from behind me as we head towards the table. I feel my throat close in pain for the younger when I watch his eyes pinch shut, hiding his face in Jimin's shoulder.

"Just let him be right now, hyung. I've got him." Jimin comments, a stern look in his eyes, surprising myself as I sit down beside Yoongi, glancing back at Jin. He frowns at this, but nods with a sigh, moving to take his seat as well.

My eyes widen at this, no one ever having been able to shut him up like that before.
