PROMISE (JiminXJungkook)

Chapter 6

"Jungkook??? You mean Jeon Jungkook? That emo kid...? He is the heir????" Jimin was never the one to control his reactions and that earned him a glare from his omega grandfather. Not that it was any rare phenomenon, his grandfather almost disapproved everything he did but that never stopped Jimin from voicing his opinions.

"He couldn't even speak in school.. our Tae.. he tried to talk to him but even he failed.... Ouch.." Jimin couldn't continue as Taehyung pinched him on the side under the table.

"Jimin.. your grandfather has some important news to discuss and I would advise you to leave the table if you are unable to keep your mouth shut..!" It was his omega grandfather once again and for starters, Jimin didn't understand why they were discussing the Jeon heir in their breakfast table but maybe he should really shut up for once and listen.

And Jimin wasn't prepared for what came next. What was his family talking about.? What the hell was courting? Was that the 15th century? And why the hell was Taehyung all flustered and not angry about all that? His parents seemed happy too?

"What the hell?..." Jimin had a lot more to say but he was being dragged away by Taehyung at that moment. He still couldn't wrap his head around what his grandparents had just said.

"Tae? What the Fuck? Don't tell me you agree with those geezers..!! I'll kill you if you agree to them.. like I know you like to listen to grandpa but I am not letting them sell you for business. No. "

"Minnie... language and will you please listen to me first.."

Jimin was on fire. But the pleading tone of Taehyung calmed him down a bit and decided to listen to what he had to say although in his mind he was fully prepared to fight his family for Taehyung's right. He wasn't going to just sit back while his family trade his little naive Taehyungie with that dumb emo Jeon Jungkook.

"Yeah.. so.. umm... Jeon Jungkook.. he came to Jin hyung's wedding reception.. grandpa introduced me to him because I couldn't recognise him at all..."

"Okay.." Jimin wasn't still very confused. He remembered Jeon Jungkook from middle school. He just joined for a year or two. In the time he attended the school with them, he had no friends, wore dark clothes and always sat at the last rows. Jimin never paid much attention to him but his Taehyungie, his idiot of a brother felt pity for the loner and tried his best to become friends with him. Jimin doesn't remember much after that as he heard Jungkook went back to the US again.

"He talks now.. if you are wondering and seems nice.. he said he was looking forward to meeting me there and all thanks to grandpa we met again.. wish you could meet him too.. but you seemed drunk so I didn't.."

Yeah. Jimin saw their grandpa dragging Taehyung around the reception introducing him to the society as he took a seat in the open bar. Jimin neither had the urge nor the energy for those things.

"And now he is asking permission from grandpa to court you..? We are not doing that Tae... you deserve to fall in love and marry.. you are not some 'thing' that.."

"Jiminie.. please let me finish.."

"Okay go on..!!" Jimin was running very low on patience but he could never say no to Taehyung.

"So.. we talked a bit that night and exchanged numbers and umm.. he visited my art gallery few weeks back and the other day.."

"Wait...!!! Wait...!! Wait...!! You!!! You exchanged numbers and he visited your gallery and you are telling me that now...???? What the fuck? We had no secrets.. and what else are you hiding? No..!! Who are you and where is my Tae...???" Jimin lost it by then. His Taehyung, his baby brother, his sweet little naive Taehyungie did all that and never told him. How was that possible. It shocked him to his very core.
