Part Twenty-Nine
"I want it."
      
    
Had this actually happened? Because Jungkook was in a state of disbelief.

For as long as he could remember he had been against the concept of love and now he was in love himself. He had always doubted he'd say those three words ever again much less hear them coming from somebody else's mouth, directed to none other than him.

But the brunet wasn't dreaming.

In fact, he was very much awake.

The couple was still kissing, high from the adrenaline their confessions had released, when Jungkook asked his boyfriend to do him a slightly silly favor, "Pinch me, please."

Jimin drew back just a little to take a look at the younger's face before raising one brow and making sure he was being serious about it. "What?"

"Pinch me!," Jungkook therefore repeated himself with a serious countenance, whereupon Jimin simply did what he was asked, eliciting a loud whine from the other. "Ow! What was that for?"

"What? You asked me to!"

"But you didn't have to do it so hard!," the younger complained, a cute pout playing around his lips as he rubbed his hurting side. Meanwhile, he was still hovering over Jimin with caution.

The blue-haired let out a light chuckle before speaking up again, "Oh, don't be a baby."

In response to the elder's banter, Jungkook started shaking his head fervently, claiming he was no baby at all, which made Jimin burst into laughter once more. Especially by looking at the other right now, Jimin realized how childlike his boyfriend could actually get when he felt comfortable with somebody. It probably was the same for Jimin himself.

In the very beginning, he had been fairly reserved to a certain point at which he had almost seemed cold-hearted, while Jungkook had come across as a really mature person and gave off quite a composed impression.

By this time, though, both had shown their true colors.

Jimin was by no means a cold-hearted person. He was very emotional, probably even a little too much. When Jimin felt safe with someone, which he definitely did with his boyfriend, he didn't hold himself back from showing and sharing his feelings openly. Jungkook on the other hand was a genuinely sweet and caring human being who, of course, could behave maturely if he needed to, but rather tended to get goofy quite easily.

"Yes, you are," Jimin concluded once more in a raspy voice before grasping Jungkook's collar to push him further down. "And now shut up and kiss me, will you?"

Jungkook merely smiled as he let the other lead the way, their lips colliding with a firework in both their stomachs. "You know what? I may be one but at least I'm your baby," he murmured into the kiss but was quickly shut up by the other's demanding lips that wouldn't allow him to take a breath.

Jimin was surprisingly eager today, so it didn't take him much time before he slipped his tongue between his boyfriend's lips, hands grabbing Jungkook's brown hair in the process. Jungkook's brain immediately shut down, not knowing how to function properly when he could feel the soft warmth of Jimin's body against his own.
