"Mr. Kim" | Taekook 🐰🐯 [more chapters added]

Chapter 17 - Hug

Taehyung came out of his room to get a cup of water when he accidentally had heard the younger sobbing from across his room. He didn't know what to do.

I blew it, didn't I? He sighed.

Suddenly Jungkook's door opened and the younger saw him was standing right in front of him, contemplating whether or not to knock.

This is awkward.

"I.. I was here to tell you to shut up cus you were being too loud and I-"

Jungkook buried his face onto the crook of his neck, clutching onto the back of his shirt.

"Hey-"
"Stop pretending like you're a b-bad person.."

"Don't.. cry." He hesitantly patted onto the younger's back.

I'm not pretending. It's just how I have to be.

"Thank you."

"It was just comic books."

Not really.. I might've bought him some clothes too.. How am I supposed to tell him that now?

Taehyung felt the younger's hands moving down to hug his waist, he couldn't help but feel flustered by it.

"Mm.." Taehyung ran his fingers through the younger's hair. "Stop crying."

"T-thank you."

"Stop crying first." He squeezed onto the younger's cheeks and chuckled at the sight.

"Look at you, a crying mess." He ran a thumb over his cheeks to wipe a tear away. "You look ugly."

Jungkook pouted, pulling away to wipe his own cheeks.

"Hm?" Jungkook looked at him with big eyes. "What are these doing on the floor?" It was the 2 hoodies Taehyung has bought for him earlier.

He was planning to give them all by tonight but only managed to finish ironing 2 of them. Now he's glad he actually hadn't, or else he couldn't imagine how worse Jungkook's going to cry.

"Hm." Taehyung shyly rubbed onto the back of his neck. "For you."

"T-that's why you told me to t-try them on?"

It's only 2 hoodies for now and he..

"You're literally the one too dumb to not have guessed it right in the first place."

"W-why are you being so mean.." He began sobbing again.
"Oh shit- Stop crying. I didn't mean it.." He patted onto the younger's back as he continued to sob into his shirt.

Minutes later, Taehyung finally managed to encourage the younger to go to bed.

"Grandpa.." Jungkook suddenly mumbled, eyebrows knitted. "Have you eaten yet, grandpa?"

Taehyung felt his heart ache because he knows Jungkook often gets worried about him.

"Don't worry about me." Taehyung ruffled the younger's hair. "Grandpa is doing very well.. Don't worry, okay?"

"Grandpa.. don't leave." He held onto the older's hand, Taehyung rubbing onto the back of his hand until he heard soft snoring again.

"Goodnight, Jungkook."

Next morning.

Jungkook got up to the sound of his alarm clock and immediately jumped off bed.

6:15 am.

He wore his bunny slippers, then remembered it was the older who had gotten it for him yesterday. He smiled to himself.

— Flashback during 2:23am.

"Shit." Taehyung cussed as he stubbed his toe by the table while he was sneaking inside the younger's room.

Jungkook opened an eye. What the- What is he doing inside my room?

He saw Taehyung carefully taking out a pair of bunny slippers from the shoebox, gently putting it there by the bed.

Why am I even doing this.. Taehyung thought to himself.

"If you're listening to me right now." Taehyung blushed. "You better use it. It's because your feet dirty up my floor." He said before clumsily walking away.

— End of flashback.

Aw.. He's so cute. Jungkook pouted. He thought I was asleep..

He rushed downstairs only to be met with Taehyung impatiently standing by the door.

"Good morning, sir."

Taehyung turned to see the younger in his pink pajamas and bunny slippers.

"Yeah." He hurriedly wore his shoes. "Open the front gate."

Jungkook sleepily nodded.

It took hours for Jungkook to clean the entire house again, and he decided to go visit grandpa.

"Grandpa, I'm home." He excitedly said as he walked into the room.

"Son!" His grandfather sat in bed. "I didn't know you're coming today. I told you to not come here too often, you must be busy, my poor little-"

"But I missed you." He hugged him. "Have you been eating well? Were the groceries I bought for you the other day enough?"

His grandfather nodded.

"Yes, it's more than enough."
"H-"
"Yes, I've been taking the pills too. Don't worry about me."

Jungkook placed a kiss onto his forehead.

"You have to be careful, grandpa. Remember if anything happens, if you needed anything, call me. The note on the door I wrote.. Remember to read it.. incase you forgot anything, understood?"

"Yes, son." He grinned. "I'll be just fine, alright?"
