(vii) FAMILY✩

PLS TELL ME IF ANYTHING IS CRINGE :)

__________________________________

The following few days were nerve-racking for both Taehyung and his crush. Jungkook would wait outside his classroom at the end of the day to walk him back to the dorms and look out for any signs of Mr Han. They would usually bump into each other every now and then... but they hadn't for quiet a while now. 

Ha, that was great anyways because Jungkook would have had to use every ounce of self control available in his body to not drag him to hell and back. 

This paranoia continued for a while, until...

Until...

Five boys came into the school. Five of them. The first time they met was when Mr Hoyon introduced them to each other. They were like a ray of sunlight at the end of a tunnel. Like the supporting family they never had. Like rainbows and unicorns in a field full of dead bodies.

It was decided they would have their classes separately because keeping seven of them away from an entire class of good, sinless, Catholic kids would be a hassle. Homosexuality was apparently contagious like a plague. Jungkook and Taehyung were curious as to why a whole group of them was here, but never pried into their past, even when they got close.

 There classes would begin at 3pm instead of 8am and end at 7pm instead of 3pm. It was a bonus if anything since getting up at 7 in the morning was a thing cherished by few. Their religious studies period was free since Mr Han had practically disappeared into thin air and no one spoke about it. No one gave a shit anyways since he wasn't liked by anyone, not even by the straight kids.

The first time they met, everything clicked. Jungkook and Taehyung felt like they finally fit in somewhere. It brought about a sense of belonging and unity. 

There was Jimin, a sassy bubble-gum pink- haired bitch and his boyfriend (he made no attempt to hide this), Yoongi who was a mint-haired grandpa trapped in a teenager's body. Seokjin and his husband Namjoon were the parents and emotional support of the group and Hoseok was the sunshine of the group, the type of person to crack innappropriate jokes at a funeral. They were like one big family and Jungkook and Taehyung seemed to be the missing jigsaw pieces. 

Taehyung and Jimin immediately became best friends upon just looking at each other, and well... lets just say Jungkook and Yoongi were jealous on a dangerously high level when this took place. They were always in each others dorms and played useless video games together, disregarding their roomates. Taehyung wouldn't be down for cuddling like usual after homework and instead would rush off to Jimin's dorm with his headset and controller. 

Were they doing this on purpose? 

Taehyung, for one, was doing this on purpose, and he even admitted it to Jimin in the middle of an Among Us game one night. Jimin giggled when he heard the said statement.

"Taehyung, we all know you like each other why do yall even hide it like I don't understand. I'm always one second away from smushing your face against his. Like djsjdbjhsabdjhsbajd."

"Did you just do a keyboard smash in a sentence?" Taehyung tried to steer the topic away from the one currently being talked about, but hell no, Jimin was one stubborn bitch.

"You know, ignoring him..." Jimin put down his phone to directly speak to him.

Taehyung waited for him to continue, taking the advantage of his vulnerability and killing him in the game since he was the impostor. 

"Isn't gonna help..." 

Taehyung dropped down his phone as well, since cyan had somehow discovered that he was the impostor and was exposing him in the chat.  

"What do I do then?"

Jimin rolled his eyes before addressing his question.

"Go spend time with him instead purposely spending it with me. You just admitted that you do it on purpose. Don't ignore him. These things can have negative effects you know..."

As soon as Taehyung heard his words, he felt a horrible feeling extend throughout his body. What if Jungkook didn't want want to spend any time together? He had ignored him a little too harshly and he was just now realizing what a fucking moron he was. Ignoring someone isn't going to get you both together, you ass, he thought to himself, afraid his actions might be irreversible.

He stumbled up from the bed and apologised to Jimin before practically running out of his dorm and towards his own. He burst in through the wooden door to find the person he was looking for laying on couch with a book between his thighs. 

"You're back early, everything good?" He didn't look up from the book he was reading.

"Sorry."

Jungkook raised his eyebrow at him questionably before setting his book aside. He sat up and took a sip from his water before asking him what the fuck he was talking about.

"What do you mean?"

"I'm sorry for..." Taehyung was out of words, he didn't know how to apologies at all and was about to tear up because he couldn't construct a proper sentence. 

"For what sweetie?" 

Ah fuck, not him sweet talking again and making him weak. He had now crossed the distance between the sofa and the door and was standing directly in front of him, hands on his waist. 

Weak weak weak weak weak weak weak : That was what Jungkook made him feel. 

"For ignoring you...I- I swear I'm not like that I just didn't think..." Stringing sentences wasn't exactly easy when a handsome man was in front of you, staring into your eyes and occasionally at your lips. Not easy at all. 

"It's okay sugar." 

Taehyung whimpered, yes he fucking whimpered. Cutesy Nicknames were a weak point for him and Jungkook knew it.

"Wanna go cuddle?" Jungkook smiled down at him, caressing his eyebrows, acting as though they weren't a few centimeters from kissing. 

"Sure."
