Behind The Front | Yoonkook

Chapter 27

Jungkook POV

The kiss doesn't last too long, just our lips molding together and moving together in such soft ways before we're pulling apart not even thirty seconds later. It feels like it's been at least a minute though.

As I shyly glance back up to Yoongi, I can feel my heart trying to beat out of my chest, and I can only hope that he can't hear it. I know my cheeks are quickly tainting red, and I'm hoping with everything in me that I didn't just mess everything up.

"Did that perhaps have something to do with what was on your mind?" I breathe out in a whisper of sorts, gaze meeting his. He looks adorably shy at the moment, even with his two cold lip rings and double pierced ears, making me wonder how I ever could've mistook him for such a coldhearted asshole.

"Something like that." Yoongi murmur softly, leaning forward just enough to brush his nose against my own. I smile at him, and the small shy smile that only shows a little bit of his teeth nearly melts me whole.

"You were okay with that... Right?" I question somewhat nervously, insecurity creeping in. Yoongi's smile grows at this though, instantly settling that feeling.

"I was more than okay with it, Jungkook. I've been wanting to kiss you for a while now." Yoongi confesses gently, leaning forward and connecting our lips once more. It's a small chaste peck, just as soft as before, and it's nearly got my head reeling. I never would've imagined someone who's image comes off as cold and harsh could be this soft and gentle.

"I'm glad, because I have too." I giggle once he's pulled away again. He grins his beautiful gummy smile at me, both hands slipping further onto my back as he runs them up and down my back gently.

"Yoongi?" I question softly after a small bit of silence between the two of us. He hums softly at this, a sweet caring look in his eyes.

"What... What does this make us?" I ask nervously, afraid for what he'll say. He hums once more, though this time it's out of thoughtfulness as I watch him mull it over for a moment.

"It makes us whatever you want it to make us, Kookie. We don't have to rush anything that you don't want to. You can label us as you want, if you want any type of 'us'." Yoongi murmurs finally, hands still running up and down my back in a soothing motion. I can't help but to smile at this, moving myself to lay back down and rest my head on his chest once more.

"I want there to be an 'us', hyung. I... I want you to be mine." I respond, the last part coming out as a whisper. His hands stop at this, though his thumbs are now rubbing small circles where his hands lay, making me lift my head to look back up to him. He smiles down at me though, that blinding gummy smile on full display all over again.

"Then I guess I'm all yours, Kookie." Yoongi says lightly, making me giggle. I love the way it sounds, love the fact that I actually get to call him mine.

There's no denying the fact that I've been falling for him from the moment I walked into the bookstore that very first night, even though I couldn't explain it back then. I can't believe it's been weeks since that though, weeks since I first gave him the chance, weeks since I've spoken to my friends...

"Yoongi?" I speak once more, eliciting a giggle out of the elder. I grin at the sweet sound, still trying to believe the fact that cute sounding laughter is coming from someone who looks like they could scare anyone off in a second.

"Yes, Kookie?" Yoongi responds, leaning down and pecking my lips once more, cool metal meeting my lips again.

"Will you... Will you come to bed with me tonight? You're always sleeping out here, and it's your bed that's in the bedroom, not mine. Plus... I-if you're mine, I wanna be able to cuddle you as I fall asleep." I request shyly, feeling mildly embarrassed by this. He hums softly again, and I feel one hand leave my back before I feel his fingers threading through my hair gently.

"You know I only sleep out here to respect your space. Right, Kookie? I didn't want to make you feel uncomfortable in any possible way, baby." Yoongi asks, and I feel my cheeks heat up in an instant at the pet name.

"I want you coming to bed with me though. I already fall asleep on you half the time out here anyways." I pout lightly, causing him to chuckle. This earns me another kiss, and I nearly fear I might get addicted to the feeling of his lips on mine all too much.

"Okay, Kookie. I'll start coming to bed with you then."
