TATTOOS | KOOKV

Ch 5

His breath was hitched as he hurried his steps to the classroom on the end of the hallway. He was late today, all because a call from someone he didn't want to answer was bothering him

He slowly opened the door to the class, greeting the teacher with a quick apology before he led himself with his cane to his seat

He was warm, wearing a white sweater he had quickly picked out from his wardrobe

Jungkook was already seated, his whole body slumped on the seat as he waited for the hour to move faster

Once the breathless blond approached his seat to get into his own, he hesitated a quick second before he moved in his chair so Taehyung could get through, without any accidents

Taehyung didn't notice the small action, which the other couldn't be more grateful for. Jungkook untangled his messy hair with his fingers, before he leaned back on his chair once again

But the way Taehyung was searching for his pen with his hands tracing all around the table, bothered him

Without a second glance he had already seen the pen laying on Taehyungs table. He clicked his tounge, removing his hand from his dark hair before he reached for it

"Here"

He said as he reached out his pale hand with the others pen in it. Taehyung turned confused, '?' written on his face clearly before he realized what he meant

He reached out his hand but accidently let it land on Jungkooks arm instead. But before he had the chance to let go he felt the roughness of his skin

"Oh, you have a tattoo? Can I feel it"

He questioned, suddenly getting excited as he had a smile growing on his face. Jungkook watched him, as well as the hand on his arm. He glanced back to see the grin on the others face

He realized how in the short time he had known this cousin of his friend, he had never seen him this passionate about something. He hadn't seen him smile like this nor the glow in his eyes while speaking

He couldn't help but linger his state for a while, observing the way the other was staring at his direction, but all his attention was on his arm

He wondered how he knew, how he felt the tattoo on his arm. No one had ever been this passionate about those dumb tattoos on his arms, more or less all his tattoos scattered around his body

"It's a dahlia flower"

He said before gently taking a hold of Taehyung slender hand laying on his arm. Slowly he led it around the large flower, covering his underarm. Tracing every corner and detail with the blonds finger

"It's one of my favourite tattoos"

He continued which left Taehyung let out a loud gasp making Jungkook almost chuckle

"You have more!"

He almost yelled, the teacher sending a glare to their seats. Before Jungkook could answer he realized reality, swiftly removing Taehyungs hand from his

Taking his warm hand once again in a grip before putting a familiar pen in it

"I'm tired, I'm going to sleep"

Jungkook said before leaning back once again in his chair, coughing sligthly before closing his eyes

Taehyung was left with his pen in his hand, still confused before he went back to laying his head against his hand, smiling to himself

He traced his own arm this time, copying the flower on the other as he painted it with his finger on his skin. Dahlia flower, he wondered what color it had, how it looked in the summer. If it was beautiful.

Did it make people smile like he was doing right now. What made it special, what did people think of when they see it on the so called grass. Do they also want to trace it on their arm.

And he wondered why the sleeping person next to him had painted it on himself. There was a tug on his lips, grinning to himself as he imagined to himself

"Thank you, Jungkook"

Jungkook also had that familiar smile
