Open Up | Taekook

Chapter 16

Taehyung POV

Waking up the next morning, I hear the door to the bedroom opening. Mumbling things under my breath, I look over in the direction of the door, finding it open just a little bit while two figures stand outside the doorway.

"Kookie, you've gotta go to class. You said it yourself yesterday that this is gonna be your only chance to make it in your classes right now." I faintly hear Jimin's voice. Though, it's followed up by sniffles and I connect the dots of it being Jimin and Jungkook stood outside the bedroom discussing

"It's not gonna matter anyways, hyungie. I'm not gonna be able to figure the material out anyways. It's too damn hard and confusing for me." Jungkook whimpers, surprising me. I frown at this, not understanding what's going on. I don't understand why it sounds like Jungkook doesn't want to go to classes this morning, not understanding this talk of him possibly failing a class either? Wasn't he just telling Jin hyung that he was doing perfectly well in his classes?

I hold Yoongi tighter at all of this, looking down at him as he shifts lightly, a small smile forming as I look down at him despite the clenching at my heart from what's happening with Jungkook. Trying to calm myself back down from what I'm overhearing, I lean down and kiss the top of his head, reaching up to play with the hair at the nape of his neck. I hear him mumble something of approval at all this, feeling him press a light faint kiss to my chest where his head his nuzzled into. It causes my smile to grow, enjoying so much of having him around me like this and him letting us be like this.

"Kookie-ah, you've gotta go to classes. It'll be okay, and I'll be there waiting for you after your last class before lunch to make sure you've got something to eat. Okay? Everything's gonna be okay. You gotta keep trying though." Jimin murmurs just loud enough for me to hear. I don't hear Jungkook respond after that, simply hearing the soft sound of sniffles for a few minutes.

"Go grab your things, okay? Grab your school bag and change into some clean jeans and I'll take you. You've already got one of my clean oversized tee shirts." Jimin says softly.

Seconds later, I spot a tired and disheveled looking Jungkook wandering into the room. I try not to let it be noticeable in watching and observing him, watching as he goes over to the closet and pulls out a pair of jeans. I can see Jimin's oversized tee shirt fitting him just a little loosely on his upper half, watching in the dark room as he strips of his pants. I can mainly see the outline of his body more so than anything else with the door being only cracked open, surprised and impressed by how toned even just his legs are. I don't say a word but frown when I hear him begin sniffling again, worried as to why he's suddenly crying all over again.

I avert my gaze away from him, deciding to snuggle up a little more to Yoongi, turning my attention to him instead of the younger who's on the other side of the room. Though, it's somehow all too soon for my liking when he's suddenly gone again, the door to the bedroom getting shut once more, plunging us into pitch black darkness.

Yoongi shifts in my arms at this, rolling over in my arms. I smile a little at this, kissing the top of his head once more as I snuggle my head into his shoulder. He hums softly in approval at this, putting a larger smile on my face at his cuteness.

"Tae?" Yoongi mumbles softly at this, rolling back over once more as he lays his head on my arm. I chuckle lightly at how adorable he is, rubbing his back gently.

"Yes, Yoongi?" I respond quietly, brushing his hair out of his eyes gently.

"Can we go out tonight? Like, maybe on a date?" Yoongi murmurs, snuggling his head into my chest once more. My breath catches in my throat at the question, not having expected this whatsoever. Hell, it's not a single thing I could've guessed to have been asked. I force myself to take in air, taking a deep breath as I lean down and press my lips to his forehead that he's left exposed, leaving a lingering kiss.

"Sure, hyung. I'm sure that would be a lot of fun."
