"whatcha doing with all
that ass on a thursday
morning?"
taehyung glanced over
his shoulder, the familiar
tone of voice running in
and out of his ear.
"jungkook? you're back
early, hm?"
jungkook smiled, walking
over to taehyung, who
was sitting on the floor
of the balcony, a large
energy drink in his hand
and his clear specs
resting on the bridge
of his nose which made
his eyes big like a puppy.
the younger boy ruffled
his hair, taking a seat
down next to his hyung,
enjoying the view ahead
of them — his garden.
it was rather empty, but
the taller plants rocked
back & forth as the wind
flowed in elegance, leav-
ing behind its warmth.
the weather was just right.
the sun was out, but so
were the clouds, which
wandered nonchalantly
in the sky, darkening ev-
erything below every so
often.
"my dad had some
work, so i came back
today instead." jungkook
explained, his eyes
shimmering as he spoke.
"so.. what're you doing?"
taehyung glanced over
at his best friend, an
obvious look of stress
displayed on his face,
eyes begging for his
comfort.
"oh, um. i got into another
fight with my dad. so i've
kinda just been.. out here
for a bit." taehyung
broke his gaze with
jungkook, taking a sip
of his drink.
"wanna talk about it?"
"it's okay."
jungkook sealed his lips,
not wanting to bug him
as the two admired the
view for a moment in
silence.
of course, before jungkook
scooted in close and
placed his head on his
shoulder.
it wasn't anything new, he
would do it all the time,
at every given moment,
whenever he pleased.
but it felt different.
"are you sure, hyung?"
"i'm sure, baby."
his heart fluttered.
"so... sunday." were the
words that escaped
jungkook's lips in a
hushed manner, a
slow deep exhale
of breath following it.
taehyung chuckled,
taking another long
sip of his drink before
placing his hand on
jungkook's thigh,
which only caused
the boy to squirm.
"mhm?"
"do you remember..."
"of course i do."
"o-oh."
jungkook went silent,
cheeks dusting over
with blush as the
thought of what had
happened that night
flooded his head again,
biting at the inside
of his cheek.
there was silence once
again between the two,
casually enjoying each
other's presence in the
shade, listening to their
slow and steady breaths.
taehyung's fingertips
traced light patterns
on jungkook's doll-
like skin, while he sat
there with a heart
raging fast in his
chest.
jungkook lifted up his
own hand, pressing it
against tae's chest,
over his heart, curious.
and there he felt it.
what almost put his
disquiet mind to
ease.
his own best friend's
heart beat connected
with his.
not even a second
had passed before
jungkook cupped
taehyung's face
in his hands, lips
locked upon each
other's as if it were
meant to be.
and through his
shaky breath,
taehyung let out
a faint whisper,
a collection of
genuine words
jungkook had
heard from him
often, that now
hit his heart a
bit different,
"i love you."
jungkook giggled,
smiling warmly
against his lips,
"you're so gay."
