Our Business || Taekook {COMPLETED}

Chapter Forty-One

"So basically, it's the thin line that separates the story from reality. When the character acknowledges that they are just a character in a story, it's called breaking the fourth wall."

"Hm, I've never read something like that."

"Do you even read?"

"Yes." Taehyung gives him a pointed look and he says, "No."

"That's what I thought."

"So, after this we're gonna go bowling and then I know this really cool 24-hour arcade not far from here. And then I was thinking ice cream."

"Are you gonna take me on a part two and hit all the other cliche dates?"

"If you want to."

"I was joking."

"Well, are you okay with the itinerary?"

"Always. You've never failed me."

"That's because we've barely known each other for two months."

"Yeah, but you know you like me."

"Do I?" Jungkook asks, making Taehyung splutter which sends Jungkook into overdrive. So Jungkook, being the manly man he is, moves to sit next to Taehyung, pats his back and takes the older's open hand in his.

"You were supposed to agree with me." Taehyung pouts when he can talk again.

"Sorry, yes, I like you."

"See? That was much simpler, wasn't it?"

Jungkook just laughs and nods his head yes and Taehyung goes back to eating his dinner.

"Ha ha! I'm a beast!" Taehyung says, jumping up and down as he wins yet another round of table hockey.

"That's just because I let you win sweetheart." Jungkook scoffs.

"Really? I can see the sweat on your forehead. You're obviously putting in a lot of effort."

"Oh yeah? Well, you- you, uh, your shirt is adorable on you. How about dem apples?" Jungkook says, before realizing what he said.

"Thanks, Kook. Your shirt looks handsome on you. Now, wanna go play Pacman?"

"That'd be nice."

They played a few different games until Taehyung noticed it was already midnight so they decided to walk across and down the street a bit to get ice cream.

"I want a double scoop chocomint cone." Taehyung says, nearly jumping when he tells the guy behind the counter his order.

"And for you sir?"

"I'd like a large vanilla milkshake." Jungkook says as the waiter practically undresses him with his eyes.

"Thank you." Taehyung says, taking Jungkook's hand and shooting daggers at the waiter.

"I'll have that ready in a minute. Can I have a name for your order?"

"Kim Seokjin."

"Wait, Seokjin, as in the owner of Kim Eateries Seokjin?"

"Yeah, he's my brother. What about it?"

"Then that means your Kim Taehyung and he's Jeon Jungkook."

"Yes. Those are our names and what about them?"

"I'll get you your discount. You can also pick one more ice cream cone if you would like. It's free."

"We'll do a double scoop vanilla and chocomint." Jungkook says, pulling out his wallet.

"Can I ask why we get a discount?"

"Sir, this is a Kim Eateries chain." The waiter informs as he begins to gather all of the ice cream.

"Oh. Wait, when did he start an ice cream chain?"

"About a year ago. He doesn't even like us calling ourselves a Kim Eateries chain. But since you both work for Mr. Kim, I thought you knew about it."

"Ha, nope! I must have been on vacation when he started it or something." Taehyung says before taking Jungkook's hand in his.

"I'm going to need a very large briefing on all of the chains he owns. Jeez, he's got that chicken grill, the sushi bars, the actual bars, the burger chains, the pizza joints, the ice cream shops. He literally owns a chain in every kind of food. This dude has got to be a trillionaire." Jungkook says as the two make their way to a small table in the corner.

"I wish. We're just billionaires."

"Don't be gloating about your money, honey."

"How do you get your kicks?" Taehyung asks slash sings in a high pitched voice as he strums away at an air guitar.

"Is that an AC/DC reference?" Jungkook asks.

"Yes, yes it is. Now that I have confirmation that you listened to AC/DC at least one time, we can get married. We can go to the courthouse tomorrow." Taehyung says as the waiter brings them their ice cream.

"I can't tell if you're being serious or not." Jungkook says, sipping on his milkshake.

"I'm totally joking. Unless you want to get married that way."

"No, I want the wedding to be big and bright and beautiful. Not in some dark, ugly, old courthouse."

"I'm glad we feel the same." Taehyung smiles and the two move to the next topic.

The rest of their night is full of laughter, jokes and full hearts.
