Jungkook had been at the school for roughly 5 months already. He had learned so much and had many new friends, a luxury that he hadn't known before. Jin hyung was the only person that knew that he had been homeless. He didn't tell anyone at work. When they asked who Jungkook was, he had simply said that Jungkook was hired as his new assistant.

There were moments like these that Jungkook's heart would pain but also swell with happiness; when Jin hyung would treat him so well. Jungkook was sitting in the campus cafèteria when Taemin called out to him.

"Jungkookie! Why didn't you tell me you were on a break? I would have given you company," he pouted.

Jungkook was a loner. He didn't seek out people or their company. How was he to explain this to overzealous Taemin? He just shrugged his shoulders and ate his bacon sandwich.

"So are you excited?"

"What about Taemin?" Jungkook looked at him confused.

"About graduation silly! There's only 3 weeks left. Will your parents be attending?" Taemin pressed on.

Jungkook didn't have parents. He had never known who his parents were actually. He had hated his foster parents. They were cruel and vicious. The only person he would ever want to attend his graduation, would be his Jin hyung.

"My hyung might attend. But I'm not sure as yet. I haven't asked him. I hope he will be free on the day."

Jungkook really hoped that Jin hyung would be free on the day. He wanted to make his hyung proud. Jungkook had been the top student in his class. He didn't have much schooling but he was passionate about photography, so he learned the theory easily. His professors were truly impressed by the shy but extremely talented boy.

Jungkook finished up his sandwich and walked to his dorm room, a talkative Taemin following in his wake. He didn't mind Taemin at all. Jungkook was a great listener.

After a while, Taemin left to complete his homework so Jungkook put on some music and shoved his AirPods in his ears. He soon fell off to sleep.

Jin hovered over a sleepy Jungkook. He opened his eyes lazily, smiling up to him. "Jin hyung....mmmm...come join me please." He pulled Jin into his embrace and peppered him with small kisses. "I love you hyung...."

"Jungkook! Get up! You're dreaming."

Seokjin tried to extricate himself from Jungkook's grasp. He had him tight in an embrace and he was smiling like a fool in his sleep. Jin decided to tickle him. Maybe that would work.

"Aaaah!!!! Jin hyung! Please don't tickle me!!!" Jungkook squealed.

Seokjin laughed happily. Jungkook was such a big baby. "Get up Jungkook! I can't breathe!" Jin pleaded.

Jungkook opened his eyes widely. He realised that Jin was really in his arms. He let go and Jin massaged his arms. Jungkook had held him too tightly.

"I'm sorry hyung. I don't know what came over me. One minute I was dreaming and the next you were in my arms," Jungkook smiled sheepishly at the memory of his dream.

"Were you dreaming about me Kookie?" Jin teased him.

"What?! No! I-I wasn't! Why would I?" Jungkook was flustered.

Seokjin eyed him knowingly but chose to let it pass.

"What are you doing here hyung?"

"So I can't visit my favourite dongsaeng anymore hey!" Seokjin pretended to be offended.

Jungkook's eyes went wide. He jumped off the bed and was beside Jin in a second.

"Hyung! I-I didn't mean it like that! Please forgive me," he pleaded, tears already forming in his doe-like eyes.

"I'm only kidding Kookie. Please don't cry. You will make hyungie cry too. Get off the floor this instant," Seokjin commanded and Jungkook obliged. He hugged his hyung tightly.

Seokjin's heart began to flutter. Jungkook's chest muscles were flush against him. His strong, muscley arms, held him tight. Jin inhaled his scent and he sighed deeply. Jungkook smelled amazing. He nuzzled into Jungkook's neck, slightly on tiptoe, placing his hands on Jungkook's waist.

After a while, Jungkook pulled away.

"I'm sorry hyung. I-I just missed you so much."

Seokjin waved it off. He didn't want him to feel uncomfortable, especially after what he had heard Jungkook mumble in his sleep.

"So tell me Kook, what's good about this place? Any places to eat?"

Jungkook blushed. "Jin hyung, you and food."

"Hey! Don't judge me. I love food. How else am I to maintain this amazing figure?" He gestured to his body and Jungkook's eyes roamed from Jin's wide shoulders to his petite waist. He blinked stupidly.

"Jin hyung....you really are amazing. Very handsome indeed," Jungkook said shyly.

Jin laughed out loudly. "I was only joking Jungkook. Come! Let's ditch this place and get some real food. I could eat a horse!"

Jungkook chuckled at his hyung's silliness. Seokjin was the funniest. He grabbed his jacket and they headed to an all night Korean barbeque. Seokjin ordered their meals and they chatted about work and the fussy models.

Jungkook was so happy seeing Jin hyung smile so much. He wanted to move over and place small, loving kisses against the corner of his lips. But he caught himself with these errant thoughts and chided himself inwardly.

Their meals arrived and they dug in happily. When they were done, Jungkook asked Jin if he would attend his graduation.

"Of course Kookie. I wouldn't miss it for the world."

Jungkook smiled happily.

"I've been marking the date down on my calendar back home Kookie. I can't wait for you to come home."

"You've missed me that much hyung?" Jungkook asked shyly, his eyes lighting up.

"Of course Kookie. Who else is going to laugh with me when Taehyung throws another hissy fit?"

Jungkook laughed, recalling the memories of Taehyung and the other guys. They truly were a crazy bunch. He realised that he did miss them a lot but mostly, he missed his hyung. His beautiful, awesome hyungie.

As they walked back to the dorm, Seokjin couldn't help but think what had happened when Jungkook had been dreaming. He had told Jin that he loved him. Was it a confession or just a silly dream?

Seokjin pecked him on his cheek and promised to see him in 3 weeks time. As Jungkook watched his hyung walk to his car, his heart tugged in his chest. He missed him already. He couldn't wait to see him again. Jungkook knew he was in love with his Jin hyung but he would never let him know that. He owed his whole life to his hyung. He would never betray that trust.
