Alone

Is this what love is?

The rest of the night consisted of Namjoon staring at jungkook, listening to every word that fell from those beautiful lips, the older stumbling over his words and praying that jungkook didn't think the other was a nut case.

Once the date was over Taehyung and Hobi said their goodbyes and left the two alone for a while. after a moment of silence jungkook spoke up.

"Hey, umm... I was wondering if you want my number cuz well, I think you're really great and I want your number soooo."
He smiled shyly and looked down

Namjoon was shocked he thought that he acted like an idiot and probably overshared

"Y- you want MY number?"
He was in disbelief that this angel would even consider him as a potential part of his life.

The younger chuckled in response

"Well yeah, your cute, funny, honest, and well... sweet. And I think I'm in love with you're smile."

Honesty, Namjoon felt like crying no one has ever said anything like that to him, but there was still that tiny voice of doubt in his mind. That whisper in his ear that said "You can't trust him." But he quickly dismissed the idea when he saw that shy, little, bunny like smile on jungkook's face and handed over his phone.

When he handed it back to the older he looked at the name
"Kookie 💕"
He smiled at the heart emoji then kookie handed over his phone and Namjoon put in his information. Jungkook saw the name
"🖤Namjoon🖤"

"Cute." He thought to himself.

"Well, I guess we should get home it's kinda late."

"Yeah, I don't live far so I'll just walk home."

"Same which way?" Jungkook pointed down the street.

"Oh man, I'd walk you but I live that way." Namjoon pointed the opposite direction.

"That's okay." He said sweetly.

"Text me when you get home?" Why did he care? Why was he so concerned about this guy who is practically a stranger? Why should he be worried if jungkook got home?
He didn't know, but he did regardless of the fact.

Jungkook noded and waved goodbye, and just as Namjoon turned and walked away he heard that sweet voice say: "wait."

He ran up to Namjoon and gently kissed his cheek.
"I'll text you when I get home."
He smiled as he ran off into the night.

Namjoon's gay little heart exploded into a swarm of butterflies as the kiss on his cheek lingered long after the younger ran off...

"Is this... love?" He thought to himself "No... It can't be. Love is a lie... But... maybe he is the one that won't leave. Probably not." Poor Namjoon's brain was running a mile a minute. 

He was constantly checking his phone on his way home waiting for that notification to pop up. It wasn't until he reached the front door of his apartment when he got a text.

-Kookie 💕-

I'm home safe and sound

-🖤Namjoon🖤-

Awwww you goofball. Sleep tight okay 💜

Namjoon was shocked he actually sent a text like that... he's never sent someone such a sweet and flirtatious response, not even his previous lovers.

-kookie 💕- 

I will. See you soon 💙

-🖤Namjoon🖤-

Can't wait. 🙂😁

He put down his phone and smiled as he drifted off into a peacefully dreamless sleep the first one he's had in years....
