With careful steps, Jungkook made his way behind his two seniors as if the environment he just entered was very new to him.

"You should wash up." Taehyung turned around to face Jungkook who took a step back in defence.

"Yeah. You can join Taehyung for the night." Jimin stated starting to make his way towards his room only to be immediately stopped by his best friend.

"Woah woah~ I did not say that." Taehyung made his point and earned a glare from the smaller guy. "You invited him."

Jimin rolled his eyes placing his hands on his hips. "So?"

"You should treat your guest." Taehyung brought his hands to his hips too.

"Guys, thanks for taking me in but I can find comfort on your couch, I guess." Jungkook said, glancing over at the small couch which was literally smaller than his own height.

Taehyung and Jimin kept silent, having a good minute of eye contact as if they were trying telepathy.

"Rock-Paper-Scissors!" Both chimed together bringing in their right hands.

Stone.

Scissors.

"Yay!!" Taehyung started hopping around along with his weird dance moves, while on the other hand Jimin had a grimace look on his face as he eyed his own hand which showed off his stupid scissor.

Jungkook stood in disbelief. What are they? A 5 year old?
He noticed how much uncomfortable Jimin felt.

"I can adjust on the couch." He tried.

"Just wash up. I'll bring in some comfortable clothes for you." With that Jimin walked towards his room.

Taehyung came right infront of his junior making him flinch.

"Jimin likes to cuddle alot." With that said, Taehyung ran off to his own room too.

A sudden blush crept on his cheeks as he thought about what Taehyung said to him. Jungkook felt his heart racing in a wild horse's running pace. He was going to share a bed with his crush, wear his crush's clothes and topping the chart, his crush liked to cuddle alot.

Jungkook tried his best to keep in the excitement and the urge to squeal as he stomped his two feet in total excitement. But that didn't lasted that long as realisation just kicked in.

"How does Taehyung know about Jimin's cuddling?" An ugly frown transited on his face, taking over his bunny smile.

"What are you standing there for?" He looked up to find Jimin with a towel, a tee and a sweatpant. He was not able to think straight as to why or how Taehyung knew about it. Do they have a relationship more than a friend? Is that why he told me not to like him? Because he likes his friend, Taehyung?

Jungkook just stared at Jimin wanting to feed the guy infront of him with all those doubts but—

"Go and freshen up." Jimin stood right infront of Jungkook right now, shoving him the clothes he brought for him to change in.

Jungkook left without saying anything to Jimin who tilted his head in utter confusion.

Jungkook slowly walked in to the familiar room to find Jimin already inside his duvets, busy with his cellphone.

Jimin acknowledged his junior's presence and put away his cellphone. He patted the empty space beside him and the two pillows. Jungkook eyed the pillows nervously.

"I tend to move around too much so these are just so I don't disturb you in your sleep." Jimin confessed innocently unaware of the pain the younger felt in his crushing heart.

The younger just joined the boy without a word, again and pulled the duvets over his body and laid down, his back facing Jimin.

Let's not lie, Jimin did felt a pang in his heart at Jungkook's behavior but soon shrugged it off. He turned off the lights and got under his duvets, facing Jungkook's back even though everything was dark.

25 minutes. A silent, calm sigh left Jungkook's lips as he tried to reason out every question he had for Jimin. Not being able to control his feelings anymore he gave up and turned around to face his crush.

This is once in a lifetime opportunity. Let's treasure it, Kook.

It was dark but the lights from behind the windows illuminated the room just enough to make out the facial features.

A warm smile crept on Jungkook's face as he stared at Jimin. His eyes closed, his cheek looking like a soft mochi, lips in a kissable pout. With lots of debate between his heart and brain, Jungkook brought his hand up to touch the ethereal being infront of him.

Soft. Warm. Home.

That's what he felt as he caressed Jimin's face.

"It's tickling." Jungkook retreated his hand back at the speed of light as he heard his senior's voice.

Jimin slowly opened his eyes to be met by a pair of shocked, dark orbs. He liked the warmth he was feeling when Jungkook started caressing his face. He didn't know he would feel such emptiness if it just left him.

Blink of his eyes and he felt a warm hand snaking his waist, pulling him closer to a den of warmness. Jungkook was not able to take in the situation. He was wrapped under his crush's arms, his head on his chest calmly listening to his heartbeat, Jimin's chin on top of his head.

"J-Jimin~" He squeaked, clutching his hands on Jimin's tee.

"I thought Taehyung told you about my habit of cuddling." Jimin said in a low voice, breathing out.

The pang in his heart was back again. "How does Taehyung know about it? Do you have some different relationship..more than a friend?" Jungkook asked not being able to keep it in for long.

Jimin quirked his brow up in confusion. He pulled the younger away from him so he could take a good look at his expression. The younger had kept his head down though.

"Just so you know, Taehyung already has a girlfriend."
