Jungkook's P.O.V

After you both finished eating you walked up to the cash register to pay, Taehyung was about to take out his card but you stopped him

Jungkook: It's on me

Taehyung tilted his head as he smiled

Taehyung: Fine but I'll buy us coffee then

You hummed and nodded in agreement before paying and turning towards him

Jungkook: Let's go then, there's a coffee shop just across the street from here

You both walked out together and you were just about to turn to cross the road when a scooter came straight towards you, Taehyung quickly pulled you close saving you from barely getting run over.
He glared over at the person on the scooter driving off quickly and hissed yelling after him

Taehyung: WATCH IT ASSHOLE!

He looked down at you and you gulped at how close your faces were

Taehyung: You okay?

You nodded and smiled softly

Jungkook: Yeah, thanks for saving me again..

He ruffled your hair and nodded as you moved away from each other and crossed the street to go to the café, you gently nudged his shoulder as he was looking at the menu when you walked inside

Jungkook: It's always you saving me, isn't that a bit too cliché? When will you let me save you for a change

Taehyung chuckled as he looked away shyly while smiling warmly

Taehyung: Yeah? I don't mind saving you though~ Want an iced latte?

You smiled and nodded immediately and he stepped forward ordering your drink while you watched in admiration

Once you had gotten your drinks you decided to take a walk in the nearby park and just talk about anything and everything

Taehyung: So tell me more about yourself Koo

You hummed and sipped your drink

Jungkook: Well I'm not an interesting person so don't expect too much

Taehyung smiled as he glanced over at you

Taehyung: I don't mind at all

You nodded softly and smiled feeling your heart flutter happily as you walked side by side slowly

Jungkook: Hmm.. well I'm an orphan as you know, my first and only best friend is Yoongi who was also a orphan. You've met him, he got adopted by the Min family

Taehyung nodded and hummed

Jungkook: My favorite color is light beige, I'm afraid of the dark and I've only ever worked short term small jobs like a delivery person, cafe waiter, street cleaniner and lastly at a convenience store with the minimum wage

Taehyung frowned as he tilted his head lightly

Taehyung: Damn.. also wasnt it at the convenience store that the boss kicked you out suddenly so his son could work there instead

You smiled and nodded kicking a stone as you hummed softly

Jungkook: Yes, picked the worst day to do it on as well. Same day I was kicked out of the orphanage

Taehyung sighed softly meanwhile you sipped your drink

Taehyung: Things must've been hard for you huh?

Jungkook: Well it wasn't easy no, but I consider myself lucky.

Taehyung raised an eyebrow in surprise

Taehyung: You call that lucky?

You nodded and flicked his forehead lightly

Jungkook: Yup, I still had a roof over my head and food. Not to mention I was surrounded by the people at the orphanage!
Not everyone has that, a lot of people will have to face these difficulties daily on their own.. They choose between eating or taking the bus home, worry about having a place to stay at and worry about how they're gonna pay the school fees and so on

Taehyung: Wow.. How have I never thought about that..

You patted his head and smiled

Jungkook: Well now you know at least! Now tell me about yourself

Taehyung hummed as he scratched the back of his head

Taehyung: Well obviously I had it well growing up and had no such worries.. but it was still very lonely.. mom and dad were busy with the King and queen stuff and I was home schooled. I only met my friends in my senior year in high school.

You widened your eyes a little bit in surprise

Jungkook: Wow.. That actually must've been really lonely

Taehyung chuckled and nodded softly, you both flinched lightly as your hands kept brushing up against each other every now and then

Taehyung: Yeah, I used to resent being born into a royal family when I saw other happy openly loving families on the streets while walking home. Along the way I just learned to accept that it's just how things are..

You pouted slightly as Taehyung kicked a stone on the ground as well

Taehyung: Also I'm honestly not a fan of horror movies.

You giggled softly and blushed lightly as your hands brushed against each other again, suddenly Taehyung held your hand intertwining your fingers before smiling down at you

Taehyung: Belive it or not I am also not good when it comes to dating or being romantic, the blind dates have never made me feel anything except annoyed so I hope this is okay..

You smiled shyly and giggled softly

Jungkook: It is.. however.. Your dad would kill me if he could see us right now

Taehyung leaned down and whispered

Taehyung: But he can't~

You hit his shoulder gently before smiling up at him

Jungkook: Thanks for taking me out for lunch today hyung

He smiled and nodded softly

Taehyung: If you're up for it let's go on another date sometime

You rolled your eyes lightly as you both stopped and smiled up at him

Jungkook: Is that even a question?

Taehyung chuckled as he gently pulled out a leaf that got stuck in your hair

Taehyung: Well I gotta make sure?

You shook your head as you bit back a smile and blushed as he caressed your cheek gently

Jungkook: Yes I'd love to go on another date with you silly..

Taehyung leaned over and you closed your eyes as he kissed your forehead making your heart race

Taehyung: Aww you're blushing

You rolled your eyes once again as you tried to calm down

Jungkook: Shut up, you made me like this

He winked and smiled as he patted your head

Taehyung: It's cute
