28 • Rumors

"I like you." The sentence rung in Taehyung's head over and over again. There was no way, he had to be joking or messing with him.

"Jungkook..." the red head couldn't speak, he didn't know what to say. He felt hard hammering in his chest, "Jungkook I—" He was interrupted with the soft lips of the other. Taehyung tangled his right hard in Jungkook's hair and kissed him back.

Fireworks soon after started drawing on the sky with its bright colors and the sound of sizzling sparks. The light ignited the sky along with the two boys who were still living each other's soft and passionate kisses. Their faint silhouettes were displayed against the window, giving them the background that could never be more perfect.

"Happy New Year," Jungkook whispered.

"Happy New Year," Taehyung smiled after giving him a peck.

"Taehyung, you're right. Lets not be fuckbuddies anymore..." Jungkook held the boy's hands and rubbed his thumb against Taehyung's soft skin.

Taehyung nodded his head and leaned in, capturing the other's lips yet again.
They both smiled into the kiss, giving small pecks to one another. "Then, um... would you like to be my boyfriend?" Taehyung asked as he swung his arm around Jungkook and brought him closer, this time semi-spooning the younger.

"Tae, I don't wanna be fuckbuddies anymore but..." Jungkook trailed off, "I'm not ready yet."

Rejection. But the red head had thought they liked each other? No he was positive by what had happened less than a minute ago.

"Why not?" He was urged to ask.

He only responded with a sigh. "I'm just not ready yet..."

Taehyung gave him a kiss on his temple, "You can tell me why, I'm listening and I respect whatever it is."

Jungkook took a deep breath and looked up at the stars dancing with the aftermath of the fireworks. "It's just that... I'm afraid. I'm afraid you're just going to leave me like you did with you past relationships." The cherry head stated, "all the girls you've dated were for sexual desires only, right? At first I was really worried about telling you how I felt, because our only relationship was to fuck each other. I was afraid you'd break our relationship because you'd know I liked you. And now I'm afraid because I don't know how long it would last if we both started dating..." The younger chuckled under his breath. "I just needed to let you know because you looked so mad— and upset. But I was always feared of getting rejected or losing you." Jungkook looked down and fiddled with his finger, picking nonexistent dirt under his nails.

"Kook," Taehyung brought a finger to the other's chin and lifted it up, eyes locked to each other. "I know I don't have the best love reputation in world. As cheesy as it sounds you actually made me want to be with you. The other girls, yeah they were for feeling good but... they never listened to what I had to say. You were there, you listened to what I said about my father and my brother. And I had so much fun with you, more fun than any other person could ever give me." Taehyung said. "It's okay if you don't want to be with me right now, I'll wait for you. And I just want to say I'm sorry. I'm so fucking sorry that I was being an annoying little shit. That I'd always bother you. You don't deserve it, I guess I just cared about my image more than you." The red head shifted closer to Jungkook. "Baby, you taught me to care about others. Especially you." Taehyung buried himself into the crook of Jungkook's neck. "I'll wait for you," he mumbled one last time.

Jungkook smiled as he intertwined his fingers with the red head's. The moon kissed their faces like they had to each other. Fireworks still sparked the ominous sky bringing jubilance with it- the sound of the crowds beneath them that shouted praised laughs proved it more.
