VENDETTA | VKOOK

┌TWENTY ONE┐

____________________________________________

When Jungkook woke up, he instantly felt a warm body against his. He opened his eyes slowly, hearing birds chirping, the sun pouring into the room through the window. Jungkook was facing a chest, so he looked up and saw Taehyung, fast asleep.

Taehyung was.. so handsome. Jungkook felt his heartbeat increase just looking at him. Just taking in his features, his eyes, the little mole on his face, his lips. He was beautiful. And he made Jungkook feel beautiful too. He made Jungkook feel.. different. Something he's never felt before. This.. this fluttering sensation, like nothing else mattered when they were together. Jungkook felt himself drowning everytime he looked at those brown eyes of his, dim yet alluring.

Jungkook nestled his head against him again, into the crook of his neck. He heard Taehyung hum gently, moving a little to pull Jungkook closer in. Jungkook bit his bottom lip, concealing a smile.

"Good morning." Jungkook whispered, and saw as Taehyung slowly stirred awake, opening his eyes, blinking hesitantly. He looked around, yawning lightly.

Suddenly, Taehyung jolted awake, sitting upright. He grabbed his phone from the nightstand, practically falling off the bed as he stood up. Taehyung groaned, running his hand through his hair.

"Fuck-" Taehyung mumbled under his breath. "I didn't realize I fell asleep, damnit." Taehyung cursed, and then began hastily typing into his phone.

Jungkook rolled to his side, pulling the blankets up. "What happened?" Jungkook asked drowsily, and Taehyung looked at him and sighed.

"I.. um.." Taehyung started, looking at Jungkook hesitantly. Jungkook saw the apprehension in his eyes, but then saw it wash away as Taehyung let out a small breath of relief. "I had to go somewhere last night. I-I guess I fell asleep and didn't realize,"

Jungkook furrowed his eyebrows, sitting up, blankets still draped over him. "Where do you go? If-if you don't mind me asking- I mean- y-you don't have to answer. It's just- H-Hoseok said that day you go somewhere at night, a-and-"

Taehyung reached forward and knelt down a little, placing his hand on Jungkook's cheek and pressing their lips together for a short kiss. Taehyung pulled away and gave him a small smile.

"You can ask me, Jungkook. We're in a proper relationship now. We're meant to trust and know everything about each other." Taehyung said softly, and Jungkook blushed lightly, nodding.

Taehyung stood up and sat down next to him, turning to him slightly. "I.. kind of have this other job. Well- it-it's not really a job."

Taehyung said, and Jungkook rose his eyebrows. "Just- don't-don't get weirded out. Or tell the others, okay?"

Jungkook frowned. "Kook, you trust me, tight?" Taehyung asked, and Jungkook nodded quickly.

"Of course I do, Tae."

"Alright. So basically.." Taehyung trailed, and then gulped, looking down. "There's this woman who lives downtown. She's very old, wheelchair bound. She used to be my neighbour when I was younger and lived with my parents. She.. was lovely, really. Took care of me when my parents were away. She was like my grandmother." Taehyung said, and Jungkook tilted his head slightly.

"I always go to her house early in the morning to clean it up and throw away the garbage and feed her cats and stuff. She-she deserves that much from me, at least. But I go before she wakes up and just leave a note because I know she'll start a fuss if she knows I'm there." Taehyung chuckled lightly, and Jungkook felt his head face up, eyes widening fondly.

"R-really?" Jungkook squeaked, and Taehyung nodded, cheeks turning slightly red.

"Yeah- um- it-it's not a big deal, Kook. I mean, it's kinda lame, if I'm honest-"
