Taehyung's pov:

It was getting late and I still wasn't in the best condition, "Why don't you just spend the night again Tae? I can order us some dinner, then we can watch another movie," Jungkook suggested.

"You want me to spend the night again?" I asked, a smirk plastering my lips while quirking up one of my eyebrows.

"I mean yeah I do, I enjoy having you here," a wide smile appeared on his face.

I felt warmth come to my face as those words left his mouth, "Then yes kookie, I will spend the night again." I was beyond happy that he wanted me to stay again, I couldn't shake the smile off my face even if I tried. After last night, I thought he would want me to leave when my hangover was gone. So this took me by surprise.

A wide smile appeared on his face, "Great!! Where would you like to order from?"

After a couple minutes of talking we came to an agreement and decided to order pizza, Jungkook went out of the room to call and order the pizza. I stayed in the room, and for some reason I got pulled into my thoughts. I couldn't help but wonder if maybe Kook and I would be something, and be forced to hide it. Or just fight our feelings and let them die? I don't like the second option, but if it's what Jungkook wants, and if it's to benefit the team then I'll do what I have to. I really want to bring this up to him, but I think I'll wait till tomorrow.

Jungkook comes back in after calling the pizza place, "it'll be here in 15 Tae." He came and plop on the bed next to me, grabbing the remote. He flipped through Netflix until he came across his favorite movie; Nightmare Before Christmas. Kook looked at me with an innocent smile, "can we watch it? Please TaeTae?" I couldn't say no to his cute doe eyes, so I agreed.

We didn't get far into the movie as the pizza had arrived, I decided to go down and get it. Kook told me there was a $20 laying on the kitchen counter, I don't know why he had it laying there but I grabbed it and paid for the pizza. I returned with it and as well as 2 Coke cans. When we got all set up to eat, Jungkook paused the movie and turned to me with curious eyes.

"Do you wanna go on a date with me tomorrow?" He suddenly asked. I barely processed what he said, suddenly I smiled and hid my face, turning slightly red. I tried to hide it, maybe I was getting the wrong idea? Maybe he was asking as friends for now? I turned to him, "as friends? Right?" He slowly nodded I couldn't read his face, "if that's how you want it, then yes."

I responded with a small smile and a quiet, "okay." I didn't know if he wanted to be anything more and I didn't want to push it right now. He unpaused the movie, and we ate in comfortable silence.

We stayed up till about midnight, watching movies and chatting casually. I decided to sleep on the couch, because I felt bad for taking his bed the whole day.

I woke up to the sound of Kook singing, he was singing a kids lullaby to wake me up. He came closer, slightly pulling the blanket off of me, "hyung, it's time to get up. You gotta eat and get ready for our date this evening. Plus, I have to prep some things for it." I opened one eye, humming in response so he knows I'm up.

He ordered some donuts, he got 2 for us each. I thanked him and we ate from across each other at the dining table. I got really curious about what he has planned for this "date" so i decided to be brave and ask. "So what are we doing on this 'friend date' Kook?" He paused from eating, showing that same unreadable expression from last night. But it quickly turned into a smirk, "it's a surprise, don't worry it won't be anything you don't like." I gave him the pouty lip but continued to eat the last donut I had.

I took an Uber back to my apartment, seeing how Jungkookie needed to take care of things for this "friend date". I don't know why he's doing so much for it, going to an arcade or the park is enough for me.

I got a text:

Kookie: I'll pick you up at 7pm okay?

Me: Okay :D

I headed inside my apartment and took a long ass bath that was much needed. Not gonna lie, I was nervous about this date. Because of course I had feelings for Jungkook, and he had them for me too. But, I'm nervous that I'm the only one who wants to move forward and take it a step further.

I took my time getting ready, and soon enough it was close to 7, I wasn't wearing anything fancy. I wore a black t-shirt with a grey flannel unbuttoned, navy blue skinny jeans, and my maroon red Doc Martens. I got a text from Jungkook saying he was outside waiting. I grabbed my wallet and keys then headed out to his car. I got in, buckled up and turned to see Jungkook with that dorky rabbit smile, "ready?" I smirked, "as ready as I'll ever be."

The car ride was a light and easy atmosphere, we were joking with each other and singing our hearts out. I started to pay attention to where we were, and it was all too familiar. He parked his car outside of a restaurant I've been to so many times. I looked at him surprised, "we-were eating here?" I pointed to the restaurant. He nodded smiling, "yup, and it's on me this time I promise." This place held so many memories for us, we used to go here all the time as trainees, but after debuting, we didn't have time to go anymore.

We got out and walked up to the door, Kook quickly walked ahead and held the door open for me. I smiled sheepishly, "thanks Kookie." I nodded, returning the smile. We sat down at the table our members used to always sit at. We even ordered the usual meals we used to get. I looked around the small cozy restaurant feeling nostalgic, I sighed with a small smile. "I missed this place, you guys always took care of me back then." I looked to Jungkook and he had the same facial expression as I did.

I couldn't help but adore how cute he looked, "you're adorable," I mumbled. He looked at me confused, "what did you say?" My face turned slightly pink, "ah, I said it's adorable, the memories you know?" He nodded, "yeah, you and Jimin were pretty wild back then, still are." He laughed and I playfully kicked his leg. He threw his head back and laughed even harder. I rolled my eyes and smiled, "you're a dork Kookie" when his laughter died down he shot a playful smile, "I can be your dork."

I literally choked on my food and shot him a slight glare. I wasn't mad at him but that caught me off guard. It's also confusing me, because ever since I was drunk the other night we haven't brought any of this stuff up. He didn't clarify what he wanted to do, it's just driving me crazy.

The rest of the dinner went by peacefully, and we decided to walk around the town for a little bit. He kept subtly flirting, complimenting my outfit, saying that it was nice to be out with me like this. I was flirting here and there myself, I mean who could resist Jeon Jungkook? He's stunning, smart, athletic as hell, talented, and so much more.

Suddenly there was a hand in my face and I snapped back to reality, "hellooo, earth to Taehyung, you done staring at me?" I saw Jungkook had an amused look on his face. I rolled my eyes, "I was just thinking ya punk." I gently punched his arm. He chuckled, "whatever you say." It was almost 10:30 pm and we decided to call it a night.

We got to his car, and the ride was pretty quiet. I was slowly dozing off when suddenly I felt a hand on mine, I shot my eyes open to see Jungkook holding my hand, but he quickly let go. "Ah, sorry I thought your hand was the gear." At that moment I wanted to pull my hair out, "it's okay." I looked out the window, now fully awake.

We got to my apartment building, suddenly I had the courage to say, "Hey jungkook do you mind coming in with me? I want to talk to you about something."
