If Only

He saw Jin standing at the entrance with his eyes closed. He looked cold, with his nose being a shade of red and hands stuffed deep in his pocket. Jungkook stood their a while and just stared. There was the man he had loved since he was fifteen. And he looked just as handsome as he had the first time he saw him. Jin had had to cut his hair for the military but now he had it grown back though in a different style from how he wore it when he was an idol. Now it was shaved on the sides and swept up messily. It looked messily but Jungkook knew it was how it was intended to look. He also noticed how much muscular Jin looked. He didn't seem to have an inch of fat on him. The black slacks he wore were fitted and hugged his firm thighs slightly and he even looked a little taller than how he was four years ago. Jungkook felt his heart rate increase with the sight of this gorgeous man. He didn't know it could still do that, even after how things were left between them. Seemingly lost in a trance, Jungkook kept staring. His legs couldn't move. And his eyes couldn't avert themselves.

Jin sighed as the song ended and opened his eyes. The first thing he saw was Jungkook. Well, he couldn't forget him even if he tried. The young man had a permanent place in Jin's heart and mind. He took in his appearance and his breath caught. Jungkook was wearing a black shirt with black jeans and some white loafers. All this was covered with a light brown trench coat that reached his knees and a beanie. Jungkook looked as amazing as he was. Giving a small smile, he walked towards the young man who seemed stuck.

"Jungkookie.."

Jungkook had not been called by that name in a long time. His fans did but it didn't sound the same. Smiling back, he lifted his hand for a handshake.

"Hyung."

Jin was embarrassed as he was about to give the younger a hug like they had  usually done. But he knew things couldn't just go back to how they were before. JK, who had noticed that Jin wanted to hug him, pulled his hand back quickly and tried to lean in for the hug but was met with a hand. Looking down at the hand, he stretched his again for the botched handshake. The moment their skins touched, a spark of electricity shot down both their spines. Jin smiled at the younger, while JK widened his doe eyes and quickly pulled his hand back.

"I missed you."

Jungkook's eyes widened even more. He had been caught off guard by the shock and now by this statement. His mind was all over the place and his heart didn't help as it was hammering away.

"How have you been? I was just listening to your new song. It's amazing Jungkook."

Jin smiled at the younger at how flustered he looked. It gave him a little hope that maybe things could be mended between them.

"Thank you hyung."

Jungkook really wanted to say he had missed him too. Infact, he just wanted to take Jin's face in his hands and kiss him into oblivion. He just wanted to do what he had been much of a coward to do back then.

"I heard that you went to the military some months after I left."

Jin had been told by Taehyung that Jungkook left half a year later for the military. He said that Jungkook just wanted to get it out of the way and be done with it so that he could get back to his music as soon as possible. He had a feeling that he may have influenced the younger into that decision.

"Yeah, just wanted to be done with it."

"And you came back to music. You truly have amazing fans."

"Yeah, I do."

The conversation was now at a standstill and some people were looking at them. Jin felt how uncomfortable Jungkook was becoming and tugged his sleeve.

"I think we should get out of here, people are beginning to notice who you are."

"Okay."

The duo walked towards the parking lot. Jungkook walked towards his car and once their, he looked back at Jin who stood a distance away.

"Hyung?"

"I came with an Uber. My car is out for service."

"Ok, we can use mine. Come on."

Jin walked to the car, got in and strapped the seatbelt on himself.

"So where to?"

"Um..I don't know. You're the one who asked to meet hyung."

"I know. And since you are a celebrity, we can't just go out for a coffee."

"Yeah, so your place then?"
