Love or Destiny

A Dinner Meant for Two

Jisoo's eyes slowly opened after Taehyung kissed her forehead.

For a moment, Jisoo looked surprised.

Then she looked up at him slowly, blinking. Like an adorable lost bunny.

And without realizing it, Taehyung smiled.

There was something in her expression and her trust when she closed her eyes before...something soft, something pure.

And somehow, he could tell.

She liked it.

They walked back to the others.

Hoseok immediately jumped in, curiosity written all over his face.

"Hey! Why didn't you guys kiss properly?"

Taehyung raised a brow. "We already did."

"But you were supposed to kiss her lips!" he protested.

Before Taehyung could answer, Rosé spoke up with a knowing smile.

"A forehead kiss is more romantic."

"Really?" Jimin blinked.

And the next second, he leaned forward and kissed Rosé on her forehead.

Everyone burst into laughter while Rosé's cheeks went pink as she hit him slightly.

Hoseok groaned dramatically. "Great. Now I feel even more single."

Then he added, "Anyway, since Taehyung and Jisoo got a private dinner date for themselves, I think we guys should look for a restaurant now and let them leave first."

But then Jungkook suddenly spoke, his voice slightly tense.

"No! I mean—we all came together. We should eat together."

Yoongi shook his head immediately. "No. Let them go, it's their winning prize."

"Yeah," Jimin agreed. "We'll eat together another time."

Yoongi looked straight at Taehyung, blankly. "You both should go now."

Taehyung nodded, ignoring Yoongi's obvious hostility toward him.

"Let's go, Jisoo."

Jungkook clenched his fists.

He didn't like this.

Not at all.

They had already spent the whole day together. Doing quiet a lot of things that people in their situation shouldn't be doing so in the first place.

And now a private dinner?

He looked at Taehyung. He wasn't resisting or uncomfortable. He even smiled.

And that kiss...

Even if it was just on the forehead, he somehow knew it meant something.

Didn't it?

A thought crossed his mind, sharp and unsettling.

Is he falling for her?

His jaw tightened.

"No..."

he whispered to himself.

"He can't be."

Or more like he shouldn't be, not when he was planning to hurt Jisoo from the beginning.

Jungkook, looked at Taehyung and Jisoo, leaving for the dinner date, from a far. He mentally decided to have a conversation with Taehyung later about what exactly was he planning to do. Also, to know when was he going to talk about the divorce.
