'If he doesn't get off......Please get off' Taehyung thought and shut his eyes closed when he heard the train's door closed and take off.

He keep his eyes shut until he's sure that the train really left, the breeze slightly brush his hair.

Staying still and slowly opening his eyes, ready to see if Jungkook get off or not.

He's there, Jungkook is there standing in front of him staring directly at him. He did get off the train, Taehyung can feel the heat rose in his cheeks.

"What? Did you left it at school? Let's head back" Jungkook said and walk passed Taehyung.

'I'm a liar, I guess. Wondering what should I do...'

"Taehyung" Jungkook called Taehyung who's completely staying still on his spot.

"Sorry, I didn't forget anything" Taehyung finally speak.

"Huh?!" Jungkook exclaimed in disbelief.

"You sure are a space head.." Jungkook said scratching his head.

'I pretended to be struggling with it, but I'd already decided what I wanted to do.'

"Tae? What's wrong? Not feeling well?" Jungkook asked, maybe he picked up Taehyung's distress scent.

'In the first place I wanted Jungkook to get off the train' Taehyung thought looking at Jungkook who's walking forward to him.

'Yugie...I'm sorry...' Taehyung thought flashing the image of Yugyeom's sweet smiling face.

'I also...I also...love Jungkook' Taehyung thought staring directly at Jungkook's eyes, which the latter did too.

After that long staring contest, Jungkook decided to let Taehyung sit first in one of the benches inside the station and buy him water to clear Taehyung's mind.

While waiting for Jungkook, Taehyung keep thinking of what happened a while ago, Jungkook getting off the train and all.

Thinking how hard it is to fall in love with the same person your friend. He's thought cut off when he saw Jungkook handing him a bottle of water.

"You might feel better if you drink some water" Jungkook said handing Taehyung the bottle of water.

"Thanks" Taehyung mumbled and get the bottle from Jungkook, while the latter sat down beside him.

Carefully opening the bottle, holding the cup and start to chug up the water, maybe it will help him cool down or something.

Actually, he doesn't really feel sick at all but of course Jungkook don't need to know that.

"Taehyung" Jungkook called him again.

"What?" Taehyung asked looking at Jungkook beside him.

"Give me the water" Jungkook said opening his hand.

"Eh?" Taehyung dumbfoundedly exclaimed.

"Don't 'eh' me" Jungkook said and snatch the water from Taehyung's grip.

"I bought it after all so I'm gonna drink it too" Jungkook said ready to drink.

'So, that makes it...in..direct...ki...' Taehyung thought cut off when Jungkook suddenly cough.

"Shit! I choked" Jungkook said between his coughs.

"Here, use this to wipe those spilled water" Taehyung said handing Jungkook his handkerchief.

"Thanks" Jungkook said and start to wipe his mouth using Taehyung's handkerchief, he can smell the soft scent of lavender fabric softener that Taehyung's using, just like the scent of his shirt when Taehyung give it back to him during middle school.

"Are you feeling alright now?" Jungkook asked Taehyung who's cheeks are still crimson in color.

"Y-yeah, I'm fine" Taehyung assured but covering his face.

That makes Jungkook to hold his wrist, remove it and lean a little to meet Taehyung's gaze.

"Are you sure?" Jungkook asked looking at Taehyung.

"Y-yeah" Taehyung stutter.

They stayed in that position when another train pass by, that cause the air to brush Taehyung's direction to Jungkook.

Jungkook can smell his strawberry scent of course but there's something else, a smell of peach fragrance.

Jungkook slowly put down Taehyung's hand and let go of it but still facing Taehyung.

"Are you wearing perfume or something?" Jungkook asked.

"Huh? No, I'm not.." Taehyung said shocked of Jungkook's sudden question.

"Ah..must be shampoo" Jungkook said leaning back to the chair and look away.

"It's attractive" Jungkook blurted out scratching his nape.

While Taehyung is staring at him with wide eyes and a blush on his cheeks, he's blushing so much today.

Jungkook turn his head to look at Taehyung when the latter didn't react to what he just said, but when he turn he saw Taehyung's wide eyes twinkle and blush.

"I'm sorry...I just made you uncomfortable" Jungkook said looking away again.

"Uh..not really" Taehyung said fidgeting his hair [It's the cheapest shampoo at the convenient store] he thought.

"Oh! I remember I need to buy one today" Taehyung suddenly exclaimed.

"Well, that's good. I helped you remember" Jungkook said.

After some minutes the train arrives, they get in. The ride was just quite, well a comfortable type of quite.

"I'm going to stop by the drug store so.." Taehyung said when they finally arrive.

"Are you really sure you're feeling okay now?" Jungkook asked again.

"I'm fine!" Taehyung cheerfully said.

"'Kay. See you" Jungkook said turn his heels and walk away.

While Taehyung is busy finding the best shampoo to change the one he's currently using, he keep thinking how would Yugyeom react to it.

How would he react when he find out that Taehyung love Jungkook too. But Taehyung swear that he will tell Yugyeom sooner cause it's better if he know.

After finally choosing the best shampoo for him, he proceed to the counter and pay.

He's walking back home, it's already dark but he's not scared though, he's more scared on how would Yugyeom react.

"I will tell him tomorrow" Taehyung said to himself.

Well, it's been days but Taehyung still can't get himself to tell Yugyeom about what he feels towards Jungkook.

He's currently sitting on his seat now watching Yugyeom and Jungkook exchange—what's that? CD album?

"This is the CD I told you about last night" Jungkook said while giving the CD to Yugyeom while they talk about on whatever it is related to the album.

'They seem to talk a lot huh? They even exchange numbers already' Taehyung thought while staring at the two who seems inside in their own world.
