Jikook: Only When We're Drunk

13: Let Me Remind You

On the way back home, Jungkook rode with Tae in the van.

Tae looked at Jungkook, concerned. "Jungkook... are you sick?"

Jungkook didn't answer.

"Are you pregnant?" Tae started laughing his head off from his own joke.

Jungkook rolled his eyes. "Ha ya very funny Tae." He said sarcastically.

"If you're not sick then what is it?" Tae asked.

"If I tell you... you can't tell a living soul Tae."

Tae nodded. "You can tell me anything Kookie."

"I... may have... kissed Jimin while we were drunk."

"Whooaa Kookie!! What happened? Do you mean like full on kissed him? Like made out?? Because if you're drunk you're not just gonna stop after a peck—"

Jungkook cut him off to explain himself. "Well to answer your first question, I'm not even exactly sure what happened. We were both really drunk and... we were just gonna watch uhh... watch we always watch—"

"Porn?"

Jungkook coughed but gave a nod.

"Well no wonder you guys made out, I'm surprised nothing else happened honestly."

"Hahaaaa me... too."

"OMG YOU DID?!" Tae bursted out.

"NO NO NO SKSKSKS." Jungkook said, flustered. "We didn't because... Hoseok came in... luckily..."

"Hmm, you don't actually like Jimin, do you Kook?"

"No, I like IU. Plus I'm straight." Jungkook said, more to convince himself than Tae.

"Okay, I believe you buddy. For now."

"Fuck you Tae."

"Oh come on Kookie wouldn't you rather fuck Jimin?" He laughed.

Jungkook shoved him. "NO I WOULDN'T."

Tae finally stopped laughing then Jungkook sighed and sunk in the leather seat as he covered his face. Then he said, "Tae, what do I do now? I think... I think Jimin thinks I like him... more than a friend."

"That's a lot of "thinks" buddy. That tells me you're overthinking this. It's simple. You were both drunk and needy. It's understandable. I bet a lot of idols deal with this, you know? Since we don't want fans or media to think we're dating people, the only way to get physical affection is by secretly doing it. And who better to trust than your own members in your group?"

"But it's so... wrong. And... gay. And Jimin probably doesn't understand." Jungkook said.

"Kook, it's okay. You guys were drunk anyway. Jimin will understand. You just need to talk it out, okay?"

"Okay..."

*Ding* *Ding*

Both of their phones notified them of something.

Tae looked first.

"HAHAHA. I'M SOO SORRY KOOK. AHAHA."

Jungkook snatched Tae's phone. "What the hell is so funny??" His eyes widened. "Ah shit."

It was an article about how he threw up on stage. And on the cat. The title was:
"Jungkook Gets Stage Fright After Performing? And Throws Up On A Fan's Gift!"

"Uugggghhhh. Why does the stupid media always post the bad things?"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When Jungkook opened the door he found himself awkwardly making eye contact with Jimin, who was sitting at the table with Yoongi. And everyone else standing around.

Jungkook rushed to the kitchen and started heating up water to make tea for Jimin's supposedly sore throat. He did it mostly to break the eye contact.

"Are you alright Jungkook? Why'd you throw up on stage?" Namjoon asked, concerned.

"I think I was just dehydrated Hyung, don't worry..." Jungkook lied.

After everyone standing around left the kitchen area, the water for tea was done. So Jungkook grabbed a random tea packet to throw in. Tae was about to leave but he saw Yoongi was still sitting down.

"H-here Hyung... drink up." Jungkook said to Jimin as he set the tea down in front of him.

Then Tae asked, "Hey Yoongi want to go somewhere with me?"

Yoongi blankly stared at him, "No, why?"

Tae grabbed his arm and lifted him up dragging him down the hall.

"Ugh Tae I said nooo. Are you deaf?"

Then Tae whispered, "This is the only way they will talk. They need to be alone right now."

Yoongi was confused. "To talk about what?"

Ah shit. Tae thought, realizing what he said. Jungkook's gonna fuck me.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Um thanks Jungkook. For the tea I mean."

"What tea??? There's no tea between us!"

"Jungkook are you stupid? You literally just made me tea?"

"Oh... right." His mind was too focused on last night, and what Jimin must think.

Jimin took big gulps of the tea. Hm this tastes... different. Jimin thought but still drank it.

Jungkook cleared his throat and sat down. Obviously Tae wanted him to talk with Jimin right now. And Jungkook didn't want it to be awkward anymore with him.

"Jimin?"
"Jungkook?"
They asked at the same time.

"You go first." Jimin said.

"No, no you can go first." Jungkook said.

"Fine. Do you... remember what happened last night, exactly?" Jimin asked.

"N-no not... exactly." Jungkook answered.

Jimin smirked with a strange look in his eyes and replied:

"Then let me remind you..."

Jimin brought the younger's face next to his and swiftly stuck their lips together.
