Chapter 5. Magic

"So, did you fuck it yet?"

Jungkook inhaled sharply, then coughed as some protein slop caught in his throat. "What?" he croaked.

Hoseok grinned. "That thing! The danachi. You've had it shut up in your room for days. Don't tell me you haven't touched it." Hoseok was the loud mouth in camp. Always laughing, pulling jokes and was always the first to bring up something perverted.

Jungkook's mind immediately shot to the dream he'd had that morning where he'd been doing just that. Or, more specifically, Jimin had been touching him; his thighs gripping Jungkook's torso tight as he rocked his hips, riding Jungkook's cock hard-

"Jungkook?"

Jungkook jerked. "What?" he was painfully aware of how his ears were heating up. "Look, it's none of your fucking business what I have or have not done with... my danachi." He sniffed, feigning disinterest in an attempt to throw them off his embarrassment and focusing on the last of his protein slop, scraping at the bottom of his dish with his spoon.

Namjoon raised his eyebrows and Hoseok laughed. "Your danachi?"

Jungkook shrugged, hoping a show of rank would distract the other soldier from specific discussion about Jimin. "It was gifted to me."

Letting out a guffawing sound, Hoseok slapped the table with one hand. "With all due respect, sir, I don't remember that piece of scum saying, here is a danachi for Jeon Jungkook. That vehicle belonged to the base, not you."

Jungkook grinned, pushing his plate away from himself and folding his arms on the table. "And I command the base," he said simply.

Even though Jungkook was the youngest amongst them, he had enrolled into the military earlier than his hyungs and worked very hard to move up in rank. He was glad none of the men really disrespected his rank based on his age.

Namjoon sat back, "He has a point," he said. "Though from a purely scientific point of view, I'm disappointed in your attitude, I have to say."

"Screw science!" Hoseok cried. "That thing is a walking sex bomb and Jungkook's got it hidden away in his cave. It's a fucking waste!" He pointed a finger at Jungkook and shook his head in disappointment. "Selfish, man. Selfish."

Jungkook laughed at that, glad the conversation had steered to steadier, more light hearted ground. "What can I say? Rank has its privileges." He took a swig of water from his bottle. "Besides, he's not even really like that. He mostly just sort of... sits there. Maybe the novelty wears off?"

Jungkook decided it was a better idea not to mention the dreams that had him gasping awake every night on the ebb of orgasm and the sneaking suspicion he had that the danachi had something to do with why his sleep was suddenly so disturbed. Jimin's knowing smile and flushed face in the morning was entirely too coincidental. On what had happened in the shower, Jungkook was definitely staying tight lipped.

"Well, novelty or not," Namjoon said, pushing his glasses up his nose. "They're a fascinating species. I've never seen one up close. To be honest, I thought they were mostly extinct."

Hoseok sighed with boredom, tracing a lazy trail through the remains of his dinner with his spoon. "I don't know how that could be. They're immune to most things, aren't they?"

"Well, exactly," Namjoon said, excitedly. "Imagine if we could harness that sort of thing? The government probably has some sort of research programme set up, I don't know. But come on, they could be the solution to all our problems. Immunity."

Jungkook wrinkled his nose, thinking of the thin, pale creature that was currently lying in his room. "I don't know about that."

"Honestly," Hoseok said loudly, "I'm not interested in whether it can cure cancer, or the virus, or anything. I'm interested in how well it can suck my dick, and Jungkook here is being a little girl about telling us."
