taehyung zooms into jimin's face, focusing on his lips, eyes, nose, and suddenly, on a red mark that resembles a bite mark. taehyung frowns, zooming out, "hyung? what's that on your neck?"
jimin looks at the camera, eyes wide, "what?"
it's clear it's a hickey. taehyung giggles, putting the video on pause, "is it from yoongi hyung?"
jimin's face reddens, "w-what are you talking about? why would it be yoongi?"
"you two are pretty obvious jiminssi, who else would give it to you?"
"it could've been jeongguk," jimin huffs.
taehyung shakes his head, eyes crinkling, "he can't if he's been sleeping with me."
oh shit.
the older boy raises his brows, and taehyung wants to find the smallest space to fit inside of. this was bad, this was really bad. "he's been sleeping with you tae?" jimin teases, looking back to make sure their conversation isn't being eavesdropped.
"no! you heard wrong, i meant that- well, he's been sleeping in my room, but because we switched rooms, that's it," taehyung nods, as if agreeing with his pathetic lie.
"you're the worst liar taehyung-ah. when did this start? i'm a little upset my best friend didn't bring this up to me," jimin says quietly, a pout forming on his plump lips.
taehyung groans, "you can't tell anyone hyung, jeongguk wants to keep us private."
"private? why?"
"those classmates of ours that harassed me are here, and we got into a misunderstanding because of them. apparently not even the zombie apocalypse can make them see me differently," he explains, "and they like jeongguk. that's why we never made it public with our friendship, i didn't want him to become a target like me. so imagine if they saw us together as. . . well, as more than friends."
jimin hums, "i see. but tae, you're both not in school anymore, should it matter? i mean, you'll be graduating soon anyways, you won't ever have to see those people. it doesn't make sense to keep it private if that's the reason. we all know jeongguk likes boys, that's not a problem."
jimin has a valid point. "i know hyung. but i don't want to disrespect jeongguk's choice. plus, we're fine now. there's no need to dwell on past things, jeongguk will show me he's truly sorry for everything he did. i can't blame him, everyone deals with trauma differently, all i can do is teach him not everyone is the same, not hate him for it."
"what did he do to you? he never mentioned you to me," jimin rests his chin on his palm.
taehyung sighs, "jeongguk was part of the group that harassed me. after he found out i was kim taehyung, we fell apart completely. he wouldn't even speak to me. he never physically hurt me, he'd just watch."
"i'm sorry he did that, all because of his prejudice. has he told you what happened to his sister?" jimin asks quietly.
"he mentioned she died, but i never asked. didn't want to hit a soft spot," taehyung shrugs, "but we weren't talking about that! yoongi hyung gave you a hickey! when did that start?"
jimin whines, shaking his head, "noooo, you seriously want to know?"
taehyung nods eagerly.
"we dated before. a long time ago, so seeing him again just. . . it just confirmed i never stopped having feelings for him. and he felt the same," jimin explains, eyes going starry and his smile widening, "he's just so handsome and sweet. and we fuck so good—"
"yah! i didn't need to know that!" taehyung covers jimin's mouth, cheeks turning red at his words.
jimin giggles, "what? you and jeongguk haven't done it?"
"no, it's too soon," taehyung shakes his head.
"oh, so you're thinking of doing it with him," jimin chuckles, "who's gonna top? or will you switch?"
jimin, stop! taehyung hides his face behind his hands, sinking down in his seat. "ah, hyung! i've never done anything before."
the older coos, "my taetae is a virgin. so cute. personally, i think jeongguk will top. but i can see you topping too. what do you think?"
"i think, well, i'd like jeongguk to take care of me," taehyung smiles, feeling embarrassed about having such intimate thoughts.
just then, jeongguk approaches the two, "what're you two talking about? we can hear you giggling like school girls."
"tae was just telling me about-," taehyung kicks his leg under the table, "about one of his trips to europe. i was telling him about the cute boys over there and he mentioned he knows a few."
jeongguk hums, turning around and rolling his eyes as he grabs a water bottle from the fridge, "shame you won't be seeing them." he walks back to yoongi, but not before throwing taehyung a wink that goes unnoticed by jimin.
"well, i'm glad he finally grew the balls to make a move on you, long overdue," jimin states, taking a bite out of taehyung's sandwich.
taehyung smiles. me too.
