As a demon, Jungkook tends to not give a fuck about much. He's used to it; the same shit as always. All those around him are typical assholes. Hating everything, especially angels. Just a typical demonic asshole day.Jungkook doesn't remember his life as a human; if he was even one. He just remembers waking up, demon and shit. The first person - or demon he should say - he encountered was Min Yoongi. His now roommate. Yoongi was like a cat. He didn't have a roommate, but a cat instead, who also acted like a vampire. Yoongi had run into him prior to Jungkook's demon awakening or whatever, offering him a place to live. Having no where else to go, Jungkook took the offer. That was a century ago if he recalls correctly. Time flies when you're an asshole. Yes, Jungkook was one of those assholes, but he didn't particularly fancy other demons. They treated him as a disgrace, garbage, but instead of asking why, Jungkook just chose to punch them right in the neck. It usually resulted in him getting his ass beat and his lord and savior Min Yoongi would have to come to the rescue, snapping their necks right off. When he tried to ask Yoongi if he knew why the other demons treated Jungkook as such, the elder would just shrug it off."I'm too tired and old to give a fuck," he had said, yawning, as they walked back to their apartment. "You should learn how to as well."So he had. He learned, by Yoongi's teachings, how to "not give a fuck".Demons thought they were above everyone. And by everyone, he means humans and angels. Centuries ago, as per Yoongi's knowledge, there was a war between demons and angels. No one knew who the fuck had won in the end. Both sides would claim winners even though there was clear proof it had been a draw and everyone just walked home with a few broken bones and wings. The war had been caused by the seven almighty fallen angels. Michael, Gabriel, Raphael, Uriel, Selaphiel, Jegudiel, and mystery dude who had disappeared; name long forgotten.Unfortunately - or fortunately, he doesn't know - angels weren't very common to come about. After the war, most had gone into hiding, afraid the fallen angels would come after them. Jungkook had never encountered an angel, and Yoongi would tell him he had never either. Demons could sense each other, but they couldn't tell who was an angel. The same went for angels. As far as they could tell, the cashier in the coffee shop they had visited earlier was angel.The best part about living with a centuries old demon, was that his place was paid off, meaning neither of them had to work. Yoongi was loaded in cash, telling Jungkook not to worry about where it came from. Unfortunate for them, that meant they rarely went outside. Yoongi didn't mind, but Jungkook would get bored easily. The elder demon would ask him, beg him, not to cause trouble when he went out. Jungkook would just wave him off, promising to try his best.Jungkook decides to take a walk to the park and get some fresh air. He needs to clear his head. Since he had woken up as a demon, he wondered about his past or if he even had one. There was no information he could find about his past life. He felt empty. Yoongi had tried consoling him in multiple situations. It just always ended in awkward pats on the head, the elder quickly dismissing himself from Jungkook's room. Chuckling, he's happy to have Yoongi in his life. But he still wished to know why he always felt so empty. Like there was a big part of himself missing. Who really was Jeon Jungkook?In the park, he sighs lying down on the cold grass. It's late October, there's a slight cold breeze in Seoul. He closes his eyes, enjoying the moment."Tannie! Come back!" his ears are filled with a deep yet light voice. His eyes open just as he watches a small Pomeranian rushing towards him, tongue hanging out. The small pup jumps, lands on Jungkook's gut. He releases a huff, the small dog licking all over his face. An airy laugh leaves him, arms coming up to pet through the dog's long locks. "I'm so sorry!"His eyes leave the pup, widening at the man standing above him. He's tall, blonde locks sweeping over his light eyes. The boy is wearing light blue clothes adorned with white. He's absolutely beautiful. Is this what angels looked like?Jungkook's mouth is agape, suddenly unable to breathe. The boy cocks his head to the side. So cute."Uh, you okay?" he asks, lifting an eyebrow. "Um, y-yeah," Jungkook clears his throat awkwardly, siting up. The pup is still over him, happily watching him and wiggling his tail. "Hey, what's your name?"Taehyung smile, sits next to Jungkook. "This is Yeontan. We went out for a walk and he suddenly bolted away from me. I think he likes you and wanted to come say hi."Jungkook's eyes widen. Wow, someone likes him and it's a dog. It's stupid, but he can't help the giddy feeling he feels inside. Maybe it's due to the bright and cheerful presence of the boy next to him."He's cute," he finally says, his lips cracking into a small smile.Taehyung smiles, nodding, "I'm Taehyung by the way. It's nice to meet you.""Jungkook," he can't help but smile. The other's smile was contagious. He spends hours speaking to Taehyung, not realizing the sun is beginning to set. Taehyung studies photography in Seoul University, his best friend and roommate is a boy named Park Jimin. Taehyung is older than him. Well, he tells Taehyung he's 21, the elder is 23. He tells Jungkook all the things he enjoys, and the demon finds himself intently listening to everything he says. Fashion, art, photography, so much. Jungkook had never cared to listen to what anyone's likes or dislikes. He had never even cared to speak to anyone. Especially a human, let alone anyone. Others just avoided him. Taehyung was genuinely smiling towards him, invested in really getting to know Jungkook."As much as I hate to part ways, I don't want to worry Jimin," Taehyung sighs, standing. "It got really late too fast."Jungkook nods, standing as well and handing the sleeping dog over to Taehyung, who cuddles him against his chest. Taehyung looks up at him with warm soft eyes, it makes Jungkook's breath catch in his throat."It was a pleasure meeting you, Jungkookie. We should trade numbers. I enjoyed talking to you a lot."Jungkook nods, handing Taehyung his phone. Taehyung chuckles, adding his number into his phone and handing it back to Jungkook."You're cute," he smiles, his eyes fond. It makes something warm crawl up Jungkook's chest. "We should be friends and hang out again.""It was a pleasure meeting you too, hyung," Jungkook feels himself smile. "I hope we can be friends too."It's the most genuine thing Jungkook has ever said. It's the most he has ever smiled.When they part ways, Jungkook rushes home, bursting through the front door of his and Yoongi's apartment. The elder demon startles, falls of the sofa."Hyung!" Jungkook chirps, rushing over to the elder's side."Fuck, kid," Yoongi groans, crawling back up into the sofa. "You almost gave me a fucking heart attack.""Sorry, hyung," he chuckles.Yoongi's eyes widen. "Who the fuck are you and what have you done with Jungkook?""Hyung, I met the sweetest boy today," Jungkook smiles shyly. "He made me feel my heart today. I made a friend, hyung!"Yoongi's moth hangs open. He quickly shuts it, puts his hand on Jungkook's shoulder."I'm happy for you, kid. Just be careful."---"Minnie! We're home!" Taehyung calls, closing the front door to their small dorm behind him. He releases Yeontan on the floor, who rushes into the kitchen."Taehyung!" Jimin rushes over, flings his arms around him like a koala. "You had me worried! You said you were going on a quick walk with Tannie."Taehyung chuckles, "I know, I'm sorry. I made a friend and we got distracted talking."Jimin rolls his eyes, removing his body from around Taehyung's. "You're too nice, TaeTae. You could even make friends with a tree."Taehyung laughs, plops down on their couch. "He was so cute and nice, Minnie!""Aigoo, does TaeTae have a crush?" Jimin wiggles his eyebrows."No," Taehyung blushes, brings his knees against his chest.Jimin eyes him with a smile. He loves Taehyung, but he's too pure and trusting. Jimin finds himself worrying over Taehyung constantly. He wants his best friend to be happy and safe. It's what he deserves."Just be careful, Tae."Taehyung sighs, "I know."After a few silent seconds, Jimin finally speaks up. "Is he an angel?"Taehyung shakes his head, "No, he's human. He didn't notice I was an angel either."Jimin takes his best friend's hands in his. They're warm and big on his."I want you to be happy, but please, just be careful?""Of course," Taehyung assures him with a bright smile.His phone dings, making him jump. Fishing for his phone in his pocket, he rolls his eyes at the look Jimin gives him. His lips are quirked in a smirk, eyebrow raised. He rolls his eyes, unlocking his phone. It's a text message from an unknown number.
Hey, hyung. It's Jungkook. I really enjoyed meeting you today. I hope we can be friends.
Taehyung doesn't realize he's smiling down at his phone until he hears Jimin coo teasingly. He blushes a deep scarlet, shoving his best friend's arm. Jimin worries about him too much, but he's happy to have him in his life. He doesn't know what he would do without Jimin. As always, Jimin was right. He didn't know anything about Jungkook, and he didn't know anything about him either. Taehyung knew to be careful and guarded, but that's why he would gladly get to know Jungkook. He wanted to know the reason why his eyes were so sad. Why it felt like it was his first time smiling when he looked at Taehyung. He wanted to know so much. Wanted to see him smile more.
Hi, Jungkookie! I'm so happy you messaged me! I'm so happy I met you today. I really want us to be friends. Are you free tomorrow?

----- CHAPTER BREAK -----

Jungkook finds it hard to sleep that night. It's nothing new for him, but this time it's different. He feels jittery and excited for the sun to rise. To see Taehyung again. He hasn't been able to stop thinking of the elder. Yoongi had ran away and slammed his bedroom door in Jungkook's face when he couldn't stop talking about Taehyung.He couldn't understand why he felt like this over a boy he had just met. The boy had looked at him, listened to him, like no one ever had. Taehyung had genuinely cared to listen to everything he had to say, smiling the whole time. Normally, Jungkook would have punched whoever pried into his life, but with Taehyung, he had freely let the elder in. Jungkook couldn't help but feel bad about not telling the full truth of who he really was to Taehyung. He had altered some of the truth, avoiding to mention the whole asshole demon thing. Maybe one day he could tell Taehyung. Would he still want to be his friend even if he was a demon?Jungkook can't help but groan, wrapping his arms tightly against his pillow and pressing it against his chest closely. He hears a loud knock on the wall in front of him. Yoongi. Jungkook smirks, kicking his leg loudly against it. He can hear Yoongi growl out an "asshole". Once the sun is finally up, Jungkook shuffles out of bed. He had spent so many hours thinking about Taehyung and stopping himself from texting the elder. After a quick shower, he spends longer than getting ready. There's a pile of clothes on his bed once he finally settles with black jeans with ripped knees, a black shirt, and a black leather jacker. He slips a black beanie on after fixing his hair and slipping on black boots. A chuckle escapes him. He imagines the bright colors Taehyung will probably dress in, while he's on full black. "Yoongi?" he calls, knocking on the elder's door. "Fuck off, thot," he hears Yoongi's deep sleep voice growl from the other side of the door. Knowing Yoongi, he would be asleep all day.Jungkook laughs, "I'm going now. I'll bring back dinner."He hears Yoongi tell him to use the card he gave him, before asking him to be safe and not cause any trouble. Jungkook rolls his eyes, but there's still a smile on his face.When he's locking the front door, his phone dings, and he shuffles quickly to fish it out of his pocket.
taehyung

Good morning, Jungkookie! I hope you slept well! Do you want to grab breakfast first?
Jungkook smiles, typing a quick reply.
Jungkookie

morning, hyung. i slept okay. i hope you did too. i would love to. i'm starved.

taehyung

great! meet me at hapjeong station!
Jungkook is smiling as he walks to the train station, even throughout the ride. His legs are bouncing under him, hands sweating. He can feel the presence of other demons around him, but he pays them no mind. Today, he doesn't give a fuck and no one is going to ruin his day.Once he arrives in Hapjeong station, his eyes scan the area for Taehyung in the entrance. He figures he arrived first but doesn't want to text the elder and be annoying. Usually, Jungkook is impatient when it comes to waiting. Today though, he finds himself at ease. He could wait as long as he has to for Taehyung.A few minutes later, he finds a familiar face pop up from among a crowd. Taehyung's eyes brighten when they spot him, waving his arms with a wide boxy smile. Jungkook feels his stomach swoop at the sight."Good morning, Jungkookie!" Taehyung greets him once he's by his side. He looks like he wants to hug the younger, but holds himself back. Taehyung is wearing black jeans with a white button up shirt tucked in and a big black coat."Morning, hyung," Jungkook smiles. "I'm glad you made it okay.""I'm sorry you had to wait," Taehyung pouts. It's so fucking adorable, Jungkook feels himself explode inside. "I missed the first train because Jimin was mothering me."Jungkook chuckles, "It's okay, hyung. I just got here myself."At that, Taehyung brightens, smiling again. "Well, let's go then!"Jungkook lets Taehyung lead the way as the elder talks about how Jimin was asking him to be safe, reminding him to grab a coat because it was cold. He pretends to be annoyed, but he has a fond smile in his face. Jungkook can't help but feel jealous. Maybe Taehyung and Jimin were already a thing. He wishes he could make Taehyung smile like Jimin does."We're here!" Taehyung announces, snapping Jungkook out of his thoughts. They're standing in front of a dog cafe, and Taehyung is already pressed up against the glass cooing at a pup. The elder turns his head back to Jungkook with a pout. "Let's go in already! I need pups!"Jungkook laughs, nodding before following the elder inside. Taehyung is instantly surrounded by dogs, and he drops to the ground petting as many as possible. He hears Taehyung whine that he wishes he had more hands to pet more dogs at the same time. The scene in front of him fills Jungkook's heart with warmth.He grabs Taehyung's forgotten bag before he can forget it, chuckling when he gets tackled by a bigger dog to the floor. Taehyung laughs loudly and Jungkook memorizes the sound. Jungkook laughs and says he's going to order their drinks, but Taehyung tries to fight him and say he's going to pay, only to be tackled to the ground again. He mentally thanks the dog for the help, rushing to order drinks. Taehyung is by his side with a huff and a pout, looking through the menu.Jungkook chuckles, "What would you like, hyung?"Taehyung looks like he's fighting himself to order everything since Jungkook is paying, but the younger assures him he can order as much as he wants. So Taehyung does, saying he wants to try as much as he can. After Jungkook pays, Taehyung guides them to a table. Dogs surround them once they sit, and Jungkook gladly pets the black dog that settles his head over his lap. "You two are a match made for each other," Taehyung chuckles, petting the white poodle on his lap. The dog really does match with Jungkook's all black aesthetic. Jungkook grins, "He looks like he has hell of a bite, like me.""Please," Taehyung rolls his eyes. "You're such a softie. I don't think you bite."If only he knew.“Oh?" Jungkook raises an eyebrow. "I bite only if you want."A red blush adorns Taehyung's face, eyes widening. The elder looks down at the pup in his lap, quickly saved by the waitress setting their order on the table. Taehyung quickly grabs his muffin, taking a bite from the top. His eyes widen when they look at Jungkook, shinning."It's so good!" he announces, crumbs under his chin. Jungkook fights the urge to swipe them away with his thumb. "Try it, Gukkie!""Gukkie," Jungkook repeats, blushing. Taehyung is holding the muffin towards him, waiting expectantly for Jungkook to try it. Jungkook takes a bite, agreeing with Taehyung that it was indeed delicious. Taehyung smiles brightly, returning to munching on his muffin.Jungkook is sipping on his drink, noticing Taehyung watching him with a small smile."You didn't sleep much, did you?" he asks sadly."I slept enough, hyung," he lies with a smile. "I promise."Taehyung pouts, but doesn't push it further. "Where do you work?""I don't."Taehyung's eyes widen, "Then why did you pay! You shouldn't be wasting your money on me."Jungkook chuckles, "It's okay. My roommate Yoongi is loaded so I hoard off him.""Is he the leader of a mafia?"Jungkook laughs, almost spitting his drink. "Yoongi is too lazy for that. I practically live with a cat who sleeps all day and doesn't see the light of day."Taehyung chuckles, "We should set up Yoongi and Jimin."Jungkook can't help but smile. So him and Jimin didn't have a thing."How long have you known Jimin?" Jungkook asks, wanting to know more about the elder."Hmm," Taehyung thinks hard, taking a sip of his drink. "About ten years I think. He's an amazing person. I don't know what I would do without him."Jungkook's heart pangs. He can't help the wave of jealousy that hits him. Yes, he has only known Taehyung for a day, but he can't help the way his heart aches. He hopes he can be that for Taehyung as well. "What do you want to do after this?" Jungkook asks, brushing away his feelings. He just wants to enjoy his day with Taehyung as much as possible."Do you want to go to the arcade by my university?" Taehyung asks, grinning. "I've set all the high scores."Jungkook raises an eyebrow, "I bet I'll kick your ass in everything.""I would like to see you try," Taehyung winks, returning to his food.Is it normal for Jungkook to feel this happy? Is this what it was like to be happy? The source of the warm feeling in his chest was the boy in front of him. Jungkook had never known what it was like to be happy. He had spent so much like aimlessly roaming earth, lost. Somehow, he now felt like he had found himself. He felt like he was home. Taehyung was his happiness. His home.Taehyung looks pained when it's time for them to leave. He tries to hide a dog in his bag, Jungkook catching him redhanded and asking him to put the dog back. Taehyung glares at him, pouting as he sets the dog on the floor. Jungkook is laughing so hard, he could almost pee."It was rude to not let me take that dog," Taehyung whines as they sit on the train.Jungkook laughs, "That would have been dognapping, hyung.""I could have loved him and given him a happy home!" "You couldn't have done that from jail," Jungkook rolls his eyes, laughing harder. "I can't let you go to jail.""You would have bailed me out," Taehyung nudges him with his elbow."I would not. You need to be reprimanded for your crimes."Taehyung pouts, but it's broken by the laugh that escapes him."I'm so happy I met you, Gukkie. I really like you."Jungkook blushes, fingers fiddling nervously. He opens his mouth to say he feels the same, but they reach their stop. Taehyung grabs his hand, dragging him out of the train. His hand is big and warm in Jungkook's. He smiles, doesn't want Taehyung to let his hand go, so he intertwines their fingers together, holds his hand tightly. Taehyung doesn't seem to mind as he continues to guide him out of the station.In the arcade, Taehyung unfortunately releases his hand, making Jungkook pout. Taehyung makes sure he pays for their coins before Jungkook can. He has a proud smile as he holds their bag full of coins. Jungkook and Taehyung lose track of time as they play each machine. Taehyung pouts when Jungkook beats his high scores on some of the machines. Jungkook laughs, patting him on the back. The elder quickly brightens when Jungkook promises he can beat him next time. It's four in the afternoon when they're all out fo coins and their hands are full of tickets. Taehyung is eyeing the stuffed bear in the prizes and Jungkook chuckles, asking the employee to trade their tickets for it. The elder brightens, hugging it close to his chest and thanking Jungkook."I'm going to name him, Gukkie," Taehyung whispers, soft eyes on the bear and a small smile. There's a light blush on his cheeks and he's too embarrassed to look up at the younger. Jungkook blushes, but he smiles. The warmth in his chest keeps increasing as time goes on.Jungkook excuses himself to use the bathroom for a second. When he returns, Taehyung is sitting by the entrance, watching the bear on his lap with a bright smile."Ready to go?" Jungkook asks, extending his hand towards the elder. Taehyung nods, taking his hand and lacing their fingers together as he stands. It's raining outside, making Taehyung whine. Jungkook eyes him confused, but the elder shakes his head and straightens up."Would you like to go back to my dorm?" Taehyung asks, blushing. "We can order some food and play some Overwatch. It's close since it's raining."He's rambling, making Jungkook chuckle. "I would love to."They use Taehyung's big coat to hold it over their heads to protect them from the rain. Their hands are still tangled together as Jungkook's free hand holds the coat over their heads. The walk is quiet but comfortable. Taehyung is pressed against his side, making Jungkook flush a dark red. He must look like a tomato by the time they reach the dorm.They're greeted by Yeontan once they enter the apartment. The pup rushes to Jungkook, jumping for him to pick him up. Jungkook laughs, picking up the small dog. "He likes you a lot," Taehyung smiles watching them.The elder hands Jungkook a towel to dry himself with as he does the same. Taehyung asks him to get comfortable as he disappears into his bedroom to change. Jungkook settles in the couch with Yeontan, eyes looking around him. There's shelves full of books and art up on the walls, but there's also figures of Overwatch characters and posters. The apartment feels warm and welcoming, and Jungkook can't help but feel at home."What do you want to order?" Taehyung asks, returning to the living room wearing sweat pants and a hoodie. "I'm okay with anything you would like," Jungkook assures, petting through Yeontan's fur.Taehyung hums, sitting on the couch next to Jungkook. "I can't decide between Chinese or pizza so we're doing both."Jungkook laughs but agrees.They sitting on the couch playing Overwatch and stuffing their faces with food when they hear the front door unlock. Jungkook tenses, worries that maybe he shouldn't be there. Taehyung turns when the door opens, smiling brightly. There's a bright aura around Jimin, but not as bright as Taehyung's."Hey, Minnie!" "Oh! Hey, TaeTae," Jimin greets. "I didn't think you would be back this early.""It started raining and we were close so we settled here," Taehyung says as Jimin stand in front of them. "Minnie, this is Jungkook. Gukkie, this is Jimin."Jungkook smiles shyly, "Good to meet you. I'm sorry for intervening in your home." "Please! Any friend of Tae is a friend of mine!" Jimin smiles. "You're welcome here!"Jungkook smiles. He's happy Jimin is welcoming of him. It's not an every day thing where he makes friends and hangs out with them. He feels so happy.Jimin joins them on the couch, enjoying the food with them and laughs as Jungkook kicks Taehyung's ass in Overwatch. Taehyung shoves him, pouting.After a while, Jimin speaks. "Oh, Tae. Joon text me asking what we're doing tonight."Taehyung groans, "I don't want to do anything.""We have to!" Jimin whines, shaking Taehyung's shoulders. "Tomorrow is a special day! We have to do something."Taehyung looks at Jungkook with pleading eyes. "Help me, Gukkie. Protect me from this heathen."Jungkook laughs, "I don't even know what's happening."Jimin gasps, hands flying to his mouth. "You didn't tell him?""No," Taehyung pouts, crossing his arms over his chest. "It's not that special.""Of course it is, TaeTae!" Jimin whines with a roll of his eyes. "I still don't know what's happening," Jungkook states, glancing between the two elders.Jimin grins, "Tomorrow is Tae's birthday."Jungkook's eyes widen while Taehyung rolls his. He wonders why Taehyung doesn't thing something like his birthday is important. As long as he has known Taehyung, he has noticed the elder is extremely selfless. He wants to ask Taehyung why he didn't tell him, but they just met. Taehyung doesn't have to tell him everything."I just don't like to make a big deal out of it," Taehyung says, blushing. Jimin rolls his eyes, "You make a big deal out of everyone's birthday. Your birthday is a big deal too! Jungkook, if you tell him your birthday, you'll know the true definition of festivities."If only he knew his birthday. No need for that. Now that he knew Taehyung's, it was all that mattered."AnyGAYS," Jimin continues, grinning when Jungkook chokes out a loud laugh. "Joon and Jin want us to go to a bar and welcome your birthday."Taehyung pouts, "I'll go only if Jungkook can come too."Jimin looks at Jungkook, giving him a questioning look. "You're more than welcomed to join us.""Are you sure?" Jungkook asks, not wanting to get in the way for so long. Taehyung grabs his arm, eyes pleading. "Please, Gukkie! You're my friend now too and all our friends will love you.""O-only if it's okay for me to come," Jungkook blushes."Duh!" Jimin chimes, standing. "You can borrow some clothes from me if you would like! You can stay over if you drink too much too. We can have a sleepover!"Jungkook has never had a sleepover. It's so fucking tempting. He nods, happy and excited. Taehyung instantly brightens.Jimin lends him a blue shirt after he uses Taehyung's shower. He uses the elder's shampoo. It's lavender, and it reminds him of the elder. He wonders how Taehyung looks in the shower. Naked, droplets of water glistening on his skin, his fingers stroking down his chest. How he would whimper under his touch. Jungkook shakes the thoughts away. Fuck, now he was hard. Would they mind if he relived himself quick?Jungkook works his hand over his cock, groaning. His thoughts instantly return to Taehyung. He pictures Taehyung under him, cheeks and chest flushed, a sheen of sweat glistening over his skin, moaning his name. Cum splutters into his hand soon after, a low moan escaping him. He can't help but feel shame as he cleans the cum off himself.When he exits the bathroom, he finds Jimin sitting on the couch while drying Taehyung's hair who sits on the floor between his legs. Taehyung looks relaxed as he hums and pets Yeontan on his lap. His eyes open, brightening when they land on Jungkook."Hey," Taehyung smiles, waving the younger over to sit with them. Jungkook sits next to Jimin, who turns off the hair dryer."Mind taking over for me, Guk?" Jimin asks, handing him the dryer. Jungkook takes it, blushing, and watches as Jimin stands. "I need to get ready too."Before leaving, he winks at Taehyung, who blushes. Jungkook takes Jimin's prior position, switching on the dryer. He's hesitant to run his hand through the elder's hair, blushing. Once he works up the courage, he feels himself sigh. Taehyung's hair is soft and long."Gukkie?" Taehyung calls, voice low and tired. Jungkook hums, urging the elder to continue. "Thank you for coming with us. I'm really happy you are. It wouldn't be the same without you."Jungkook smiles, his heart feels so warm."I'm glad you wanted me to come along. But I can't believe you didn't tell me it was your birthday.""I-I just don't like making it a big deal," Taehyung sighs, fingers playing with Yeontan's fur. "I would rather celebrate everyone else's birthday and for them to be happy."Jungkook coos, earning an elbow to his leg. "But you deserve to be happy and celebrated too, hyung. Now I need to get you a late birthday present.""Nooooooooo," Taehyung groans. "Don't spend your money on me.""Not my money," Jungkook laughs. Maybe he should text Yoongi to let him know he wouldn't be home. "Actually, do you mind if I invite my roommate?""Only if we can set him up with Jimin and you don't get me anything," Taehyung pouts, looking up at the younger. Jungkook has to hold himself back from leaning down and kissing Taehyung. "No promises," Jungkook chuckles, turning off the dryer. "Yoongi doesn't go out and he really needs to. He has always helped me through a lot and I just want him to enjoy himself. Maybe for once have friends."Taehyung smiles up at him, "You're a good person, Gukkie."Jungkook's eyes widened. He never expected to hear something like that about him. Hearing it from Taehyung, makes him believe it. He runs his fingers through Taehyung's hair, watching as the elder closes his eyes and leans into his touch. Jungkook smiles, whispering, "Thank you, Tae. I'm so happy I met you."Taehyung opens his eyes, gaze fixed on his own eyes. "You know. It's okay for you to be happy, right? Sometimes when you smile, your eyes are sad or you hide your smile like you're not allowed to be happy."Jungkook watches him, his hand stilling on his hair. He doesn't know how to answer because it's true. Why should he be happy, though?Taehyung smiles, his hand coming up to cup Jungkook's jaw. "I'll make sure you're always happy. You can be selfish and use me as your happiness if you want."Jungkook closes his eyes, leaning into Taehyung's hand. The back of his eyes burn. Was he going to cry? That has never happened before. Taehyung is introducing him to so many new things. Happiness, tears, feelings he has never felt before."Can you two not be so gay in front of my salad?" Jimin groans, making the two jump away from each other. "Jimin!" Taehyung blushes, letting Yeontan off his lap and rushing to his feet. He glares at his best friend who is standing behind the couch with a smirk. "I can't believe you just meme. You're such a dork."Jimin rolls his eyes, "You love it."Jungkook feels something warm on his cheek. His hand is quick to wipe it away, looking at the wetness over it. It was the first time he had ever shed a tear."Jungkook is inviting his roommate, Yoongi," Taehyung clears his throat, light blush still adorning his cheeks. "We're trying to set you up with him. You have no say in it for making me go."Jimin blushes, "W-what? I-I don't-""Hush!" Taehyung grins. "You're talking to him.""I'll do it for you," Jimin rolls his eyes, rushing past Taehyung. He looks over at Jungkook. "Is he at least cute, Guk?""Ew," Jungkook fake gags. "I'm the wrong person to ask."Taehyung laughs, patting Jimin in the back. "Just try talking to him, Minnie. You deserve someone.""And you too," Jimin smiles, taking a quick glance over at Jungkook, who raises an eyebrow. "But you already have.""M-Minnie!" Taehyung whines, smacking Jimin's arm.Jimin laughs, "Let's go before Taehyung kills me. Jin and Joon are on their way to pick up Hobi. Jin is designated driver tonight."Jungkook is sits awkwardly in the train ride. Taehyung is sitting between Jimin and himself as he jokes with the elder. "Don't you have a thesis coming up?" Jimin asks.Taehyung groans, "Don't remind me, please. Tonight is going to be my only free night for a whole week."Jungkook suddenly feels sad hearing that he probably wont see Taehyung for that long. His body tenses when Taehyung rests his head on his shoulder."Will you come visit me, Gukkie?" he sighs, sinking into Jungkook's shoulder. "Save me from this thesis."Jungkook chuckles, "Of course. I'll be here for as long as you want me."Taehyung opens his eyes, narrowing as he watches Jungkook. "What if I say I always want you around?"Jungkook smiles, eyes soft, "Then I'll always be around."Taehyung's eyes are watching him sadly, making Jungkook cock his head to the side confused."Can you two stop being so gay, please?" Jimin groans, interrupting again.Taehyung slams the heel of his shoe to Jimin's calf. The elder yelps, glaring at Taehyung who just laughs at his pain.Jungkook follows behind his two new friends who excitedly skip ahead of him. He's still processing Taehyung's words about wanting him around. It surprises him, but he wants to be with him as well."Jin hyung!" Jimin calls out, rushing ahead.Jungkook freezes, eyes wide. Jimin and Taehyung rush over to a taller, dark haired, man with broad shoulders. He wraps both of them into a tight hug, smiling. This is the Jin person the two hadn't stopped talking about. Jin, their friend. Jin, the demon.Fuck.Did they know their hyung was a demon? Should he act like he didn't know? What would the other say? He can't tell Taehyung. No. Taehyung couldn't find out like this."Gukkie!" Taehyung's familiar voice snaps him out of his thoughts. He's waving him over, watching him confused. Jungkook hadn't noticed he was shaking, breathing heavy. "Come here!"Jungkook's legs robotically move towards the three. When Jin looks up at him, he smiles, confusing Jungkook further. Why was another demon smiling at him?"Gukkie, this is Jin hyung," Taehyung introduces once he joins them. "Jinnie, this is Jungkook. My new friend.""Hi, Jungkook!" Jin bows, smiling brightly. "It's a pleasure meeting you! I hope we can all be friends too.""P-pleasure meeting you too," Jungkook's voice is low, shy.Taehyung chuckles, "He's a little shy, but he's great."Jin chuckles, "No need to be shy, Jungkook. We're all very welcoming."Jungkook nods, blushing."Where are Joon and Hobi?" Jimin asks, glancing around."Inside saving us a table," Jin answers, guiding them into the bar. "Namjoon must already be two shots in."Jimin laughs, "He's such a lightweight. I feel bad for you having to sleep with him tonight."Jin rolls his eyes, laughing. The elder guides them to a both in the back, where two other men are waving them over. Jimin rushes over to hug them while Taehyung grabs Jungkook's hand and leads him over. "Jungkook, this is Hoseok and that's Namjoon," Taehyung introduces both of the men. "Hobi, Joon, this is Jungkook. Please welcome him.""Hi, Jungkook!" The one known as Hoseok waves happily, shaking Jungkook's hand. "It's nice to meet you!""Hello!" The other, Namjoon, shakes his hand now. There are dimples adorning his face when he smiles. "Welcome to our friend group. You can call me Joon or Joonie. I'm Jin's boyfriend.""N-nice to meet you too," Jungkook smiles. He's not used to being around so many people. Especially not people who have been so welcoming of him. Even a demon amongst them.Everyone settles in the booth, and Jungkook is about to scoot in with Taehyung, but quickly stops."Sorry to bother you, Jungkook," Jin apologizes. "Can you give me a hand bringing drinks for everyone?"Jungkook nods nervously, following after the elder. Jin leans over the counter, ordering drinks from the bartender. Jungkook is fiddling with his fingers when Jin turns back to him. Here it comes. He was going to bring up the whole demon thing."So tell me something about yourself, Jungkook," he says, surprising Jungkook."W-what?" Jin raises an eyebrow, confused. "What's wrong?""You're not going to bring it up?" Jungkook asks. He's should go home. Run and stop Yoongi from coming."Bring what up?" Jin looks genuinely confused, which confuses Jungkook even more."That I'm a demon?" He asks. "And you are too. Do they know? Does Taehyung know?"Jin's eyes soften, "Of course they know. Does Tae not know you are?"Jungkook shakes his head, eyes fixed on his shoes. He flinches when Jin places his hand over his shoulder. "I wont tell them, don't worry," Jin assures him, smiling. "That's not something for me to say. You should tell Tae, though. He's very accepting. Trust me. Just look at me. We have been friends for years and I'm practically their mother."Jungkook finds himself laughing, "I've never met a nice demon like you. It's refreshing."Jin chuckles, "Not all demons are assholes."Jungkook agrees, thinking of Yoongi. He lets Jin know that Yoongi is also a demon. Asks him not to say anything about him as well. Jin smiles, assuring him that he wont say anything or treat them any differently. The younger feels a weird swoop in his stomach. He feels accepted, at ease, happy. Where had these people been all of his life?When he returns to Taehyung, he feels even more at ease. He sits next to the elder, hands him a drink earning him a bright thank you. They dissolve into conversation as the bar starts filling up. His eyes spot Yoongi when he walks in, and Jungkook waves him over."Woah," he hears Jimin gasp. "He's hot."Jungkook laughs and proceeds to introduce Yoongi who just glares at him at the mention of him being a cat. He squeezes into the booth next to Jimin, who is blushing a deep red, but he is quick to pick up conversation with the elder. Taehyung nudges him, wiggling his eyebrows. He can't help but laugh. The elder watches him with soft eyes and a small smile, reming Jungkook of their earlier encounter. He can almost feel his jaw tingle where Taehyung had placed his hand back in the dorm. Taehyung eyes flip between his eyes, down to his lips, licking his own, and finally returning to Jungkook's eyes. There's already a light pink dusting his cheeks due to the alcohol. It makes him look even more beautiful."Hey, TaeTae?" Jimin calls over the now loud music surrounding them. Taehyung breaks eye contact with Jungkook, turning to his best friend. "Do you want to dance with me?"Taehyung brightens, nodding his head enthusiastically. He turns to Jungkook with expectant eyes, who laughs and shakes his head. The elder pouts out a "lame" as he stands and rushes off with Jimin. Jungkook's eyes are soft as he watches the elder disappear into the crowd, lips quirked in a small smile."Wow, you're fucking whipped already," Yoongi mumbles over the drink he has against his lips."Don't be dick," Jungkook groans, feeling his cheeks heat up. He hears laughter from their three new friends, who are watching them interact. They're quick to pick up conversation between the entire group, the others curious to know about both Jungkook and Yoongi, and how they met each other. The truth is slightly altered, leaving out the whole demon topic. Jin doesn't say anything, only watches Jungkook with a strange warmth and brightness in his eyes. There's a feeling in his chest he's not used to. He feels so welcomed by Taehyung and all of his friends. For once, he feels like he belongs. Jungkook loses track of time, having too much fun to care about the concept of it. He groans when Jin delivers another dad joke, but he still fails to hide his laughter. Yoongi bangs his forehead on the counter, asking himself why he left his room for this shit, but his lips are quirked into a smile as well. He has never seen Yoongi like this, and he's glad he asked the elder to join them. Yoongi had done so much for him already."I'm back," Jimin's voice singsongs, skipping over to their booth and plopping down on Yoongi's lap. The elder's eyes widen, cheeks, neck and ears turning a deep shade of red. There's an eruption of laughter from everyone around due to Yoongi's reaction."W-what's going on, Jimin?" Yoongi stutters, hands hovering over Jimin, not wanting to cross any boundaries."Nothing, hyung," Jimin smiles, clearly drunk. "This just looked like the best seat in the house so I claimed it as my own."Yoongi chokes while everyone laughs. Hoseok muttering a "damn that was fucking smooth" through his laughter. Jungkook's eyes have been scanning the area for Taehyung, not being able to find the elder."Hey, Jimin," Namjoon says, checking his watch. "Where's Taehyung? It's almost midnight."Jimin now has his arms wrapped around Yoongi's neck, looking at Namjoon with genuine confusion."He came back here a while ago and left me dancing on my own."Jungkook can feel a wave of panic begin to crawl at his skin. If only he could sense Taehyung like he can with Yoongi and Jin. Being a demon was fucking useless. "We should go look for him," Jin says, clenching his jaw. "Yoongi, can you please look after Jiminie?"Yoongi nods, "Of course. I got him."Jungkook is the first to stand, rushing into the crowd with the other three behind him. His eyes had already scanned the are, unable to find Taehyung. The bathrooms maybe? He rushes into the bathroom, walking in on two humans trying to have a quickie but forgot to lock the door. Jungkook slams the door closed, hearing yelling from the other side. No time to worry about that. He needs to find Taehyung. Where else could he be?His eyes are scanning through the bar as fast as he can, spotting an exit sign behind the bar. He hears the bartender calling out to him, but he doesn't give a fuck, slamming the door open and stepping out into the cold night. It's a dark alleyway, dimly lit by a flickering light above him."P-please, stop," he hears a familiar voice sob. Jungkook rounds the corner to the side of the bar, eyes widening, anger filling his blood.Taehyung's back is pressed against the wall, a bulkier man over him biting and licking Taehyung's neck and collarbones. His arms are on either side of Taehyung, caging him in. Taehyung is crying, his hands weakly pushing into the man's chest, trying to push him off.
Demon.
"Come on, angel," the man's dark smirk makes Taehyung's eyes widen. He's trembling as the man roughly grips Taehyung's chin, making him whine in pain. "I just want to have some fun with you, beautiful."A loud growl escapes Jungkook, echoing off the walls. "Don't fucking touch him."The man startles, releasing his strong grip on Taehyung, who sobs and slides down to the ground."Who the fuck are you?" the man spits, regaining his composure. "I found him first. Now run along and find yourself another bitch, little boy."Jungkook can feel something within himself snap, eyes turning crimson. He knows he should stop; calm down and take Taehyung to safety. No. Jungkook wanted to rip this bastard's throat out. For touching Taehyung; making him cry. "What? Are you terrified and realized you can't do shit now?" The man erupts in a loud laughter, making Taehyung whine and curl up in a ball. "G-Gukkie," he hears Taehyung sob into his knees. His body calms somewhat, eyes returning to normal."I'm coming, Tae," he assures, voice soothing. "You're safe now."The man laughs, earning Jungkook's attention once again. "What can a little boy like you do?"Jungkook's lips twitch into a dark smirk, craning his head to the side."How about I show you what it's like to piss me off."The man has a pocket knife in his hand, flipping it open and rushing towards Jungkook. Jungkook has always been quick on his feet, but this time, he's faster than normal as he rounds on the man, kicking the back of his knees. The man falls forward with a huff, knife almost stabbing him in the chest. Jungkook smirks, shoving the heel of his boot over the man's back, pushing his weight down over him so the knife sinks deeper into his chest."You're not a big talk now, huh?" Jungkook growls, watching as blood starts to pool around the man. "This is what you get for touching him; making him cry. For ever trying to ruin someone so pure."Jungkook feels the body under him jerk once, before completely going limp under him. He can't help but sigh, disappointed that it ended so quickly. His heart pangs when he hears another sob, jerking his head backwards towards the source. Taehyung is still curled up on the ground, visibly trembling. Low whimpers and sobs leave his lips every so often. The younger's eyes narrow, reaching his side and kneeling in front of him."Tae?" he whispers tenderly, hand hovering over the elder's shoulder. "It's me. Gukkie.""G-Gukkie?" Taehyung hiccups, body calming slightly."I'm here, Tae," Jungkook smiles, fingers stroking through Taehyun's hair. "You're safe now. I wont let anything happen to you."Taehyung sniffles, blinking his puffy eyes up at the younger. Jungkook can't help but coo, swiping his thumb through the elder's wet cheeks, who leans into his touch."Tae? Jungkook?" he hears the groups frantic calls from the exit of the bar. Their loud footsteps become louder as they quickly approach, stopping at the sight of the two youngest.Jin gasps, eyeing the now dead demon on the ground, then back up towards the maknaes. He approaches carefully, gagging as he steps over the dead body."What happened?" he asks once he's finally by Jungkook's side."This piece of shit was trying to have his way with Tae," Jungkook spits out. He quickly reminds himself to calm down.Namjoon sighs, glancing over at Hoseok who watches him with understanding eyes, nodding. Something passes between them. Jungkook wants to know what, but right now isn't the time.A tug on his sleeve turns him back to the boy on the ground. Taehyung is watching him with hooded eyes, body finally calmer."Gukkie, let's go home, please," he begs, exhausted; barely holding on to consciousness. Jungkook smiles fondly. With Jin's help he picks up Taehyung, whose head rests on the junction of his neck and shoulder, arms wrapped around his neck. Taehyung's warm breath fans against the younger's skin, making him shiver."I'm trusting you with him," Jin speaks, his serious tone making Jungkook tense. "I know you will protect him. Please keep him safe.""And thank you for saving him tonight," Namjoon adds, bowing. "You really do belong in our group after all," Hoseok smiles, giving him a thumbs up.If Jungkook had a tail, it would definitely be happily waggling at the moment. Instead he blushes, thanking them, before turning and making his way to Taehyung's dorm. The walk is long, but he doesn't want to gather unnecessary attention by taking a train. His priority is getting Taehyung home, and he doesn't mind their current closeness. So he walks.The walk is quiet. He figures Taehyung is asleep since he just cuddles into him, breathing evenly. Jungkook is tempted to press his lips to Taehyung's forehead, nuzzle his nose against he cheek, but that would only make him equals to the other demon. A sigh leaves Taehyung, making Jungkook freeze, almost dropping the elder."You're still awake?" he smiles, continuing his walking."Barely," Taehyung answers, voice deeper than normal. He nuzzles his nose closer to Jungkook's neck, sighing contently. It's quiet again, and Jungkook can't help but feel like Taehyung wants to say something, but doesn't seem to know how."Are you doing okay?" Jungkook asks, bitting the inside of his cheek nervously.Taehyung hums, "Yeah. At this point, I'm used to it."Jungkook's eyes widen, "This has happened before?"Taehyung nods, sighing again. His fingers begin to play with the hairs in the back of Jungkook's neck, eyes open, fixed on the younger's shirt. Jungkook swallows, understand why everyone had suddenly panicked like they did. Why Jin had said he trusted him with Taehyung. Jungkook senses that Taehyung doesn't want to speak of the topic any further, so he smiles, looking ahead."I don't know if this is a good time to say it, but happy birthday, Tae."He feels Taehyung shiver in his arms, causing him to pressing the elder closer to his chest. Taehyung's hands fist into the back of his shirt, a sob escaping him. Before Jungkook can ask him what's wrong, Taehyung presses his lips to his neck. Jungkook stops walking looks down at the elder in his arms. Taehyung smiles up at him, a tear running down his cheek. "Thank you, Gukkie," he whispers.Jungkook can't help himself. He leans his head down, pressing his lips against Taehyung's. His lips are soft and warm, sending shivers all throughout Jungkook's body. Taehyung's eyes widen, taken aback, but he smiles into the kiss, eyes closing as he kisses the younger back. When Jungkook breaks the kiss, his eyes open slowly, watching Taehyung licking his lips as he sighs."I-I'm sorry," Jungkook whispers shyly.Taehyung finally opens his eyes, watching the younger confused. "There's nothing for you to be sorry for, Gukkie.""Are you sure?" Jungkook asks, eyes frowning sadly. Taehyung smiles, pinches Jungkook's cheek. "I wanted it too, Gukkie. I was just afraid to make a move since we only just met."Jungkook blushes, wishing he could hide his face. Taehyung is watching him intently with soft eyes."D-do you want me to set you down?"Taehyung pouts, his arms around Jungkook's neck tightening. "But I'm so comfortable in my hero's arms."Jungkook rolls his eyes, trying to hide his smile as he continues walking. "Sometimes I forget that you're the hyung."The walk to Taehyung's dorm is long, but the two spend it talking, enjoying each other's company. Jungkook unwillingly sets Taehyung down once they're in front of his door. The elder is pouting as he unlocks the door, welcoming Jungkook inside. Taehyung rubs his tired eyes with his hands, dragging his feet towards his room. Jungkook isn't sure what to do or where to go, so he just stands in the dark.
"What are you waiting for, Gukkie?" Taehyung calls from his room. "Come here."Jungkook nods to no one in particular, shyly walking towards the elder's room. Taehyung's room is dimly lit by a lamp on his bedside table. The elder is now wearing sweatpants, shuffling through clothes shirtless. Jungkook blushes at the sight. He should look away but he can't. Taehyung turns to him, and the younger's eyes widen. Taehyung's body isn't tones or built like Jungkook's, but he's still so fucking beautiful. Taehyung raises an eyebrow, smirking, "Like something you see?""I-I-" Jungkook stammers, making Taehyung chuckle. He throws him a change of clothes, which Jungkook easily catches."Change and hurry to bed," Taehyung smiles, throwing on a hoodie and slipping under the covers.Jungkook's eyes narrow. "I can sleep on the couch."Taehyung sits up, eyes sad and his lips turning into a pout. "Don't you want to sleep with me?"Jungkook sighs, sits on the edge of Taehyung's bed. His eyes turn serious as they're cast on the clothes over his lap."It's not that I don't want to, Tae," he says softly, hands fisting into the clothes. "I-I just don't want to do something I'll regret."Taehyung cocks his head to the side. "What makes you think that?"Jungkook decides to pour his heart out. "You're the first friend I have ever had besides Yoongi. No one has ever looked at me the way you do. Ever made me feel the way you do, Tae. I have only known you for two days now and fuck, I just don't want to hurt you. I don't want to overstep my boundaries and scare you off. I want to get to know you more. Make sure you're always happy. I want to be a reason why you smile."Jungkook doesn't feel the shift in the bed. His body tenses when arms snake around him from behind, Tahyung's forehead resting against the back of his neck. With his chest pressed against his back, Jungkook can feel Taehyung's heartbeat, soothing his body."You're going to make me cry, Gukkie," Taehyung sighs and Jungkook can hear the smile in his voice. "I care about you so much already. It hurts me to see you sad all of the time. I promise you will never hurt me. If I ever feel like you're overstepping you're boundaries, I'll let you know. Please, you can always trust me. I want to be a reason why you smile genuinely."At that moment, Jungkook finally realized what he was feeling. He was so ultimately fucking in love with Taehyung.

----- CHAPTER BREAK -----

Jungkook remembers sitting at the edge of Taehyung's bed the morning of his birthday, watching him. His fingers were tangled in Taehyung's hair, stroking it away from his face as the elder slept. Leaving Taehyung was the hardest thing he had ever done. The first thing Jungkook had noticed is Jimin never came home, but he just figured he had stayed with Jin. He felt impulsed to speak to the elder, but he quickly remembered they hadn't exchanged numbers. When he arrived home, his eyebrow raised as his eyes scanned the scattered clothes all over the living room, leading to Yoongi's room. He knocked on the elder's door, receiving no answer. Opening the door was his biggest regret yet. Jimin and Yoongi are curled up tangled together on the bed, naked under the thin blanket covering their bottom halves. Jungkook's eyes widen, quickly slamming the door closed and running to his room, hiding under his covers. He wishes he could wash the image out of his eyes. Did they still have bleach? Yoongi and Jimin had late come into their room, blushing. Jungkook couldn't help but laugh at the elder demon blushing, earning a stray shoe to the head. Jimin had only laughed, sitting on Jungkook's bed, expression turning serious."I didn't get to say it last night," he smiles sadly, eyes on his lap. "But thank you for saving Taehyung."Jungkook blushed, scratching the back of his neck. "I-It was no problem.Jimin looks like he wants to say more, fingers fiddling over his lap. Yoongi places a hand on Jimin's shoulder, eyes meeting Jungkook's. They share the same thought, wondering what the fuck is happening."Um," Jungkook starts, clearing his throat. "Last night Taehyung mentioned that what happened isn't the first time."Jimin's body tenses, eyes wide. After a second, his body relaxes, eyes turning sad."He really does trust you for telling you that," he sighs with a small smile. "I worry about Tae a lot. He's such a pure and kind soul, yet he attracts so much evil. I-I'm usually alert to keep an eye on him. It's my fault."Jimin hiccups, placing his face in his hands as tears begin to stream down his face. Yoongi's eyes soften, bending down in front of Jimin, taking his hands in his."Shh, it's not your fault, sweet," Yoongi soothes him. Jungkook watches the elder in amazement. It's like watching a whole new person besides the Yoongi he knows. "We talked about it last night. Nothing that happened is your fault and Jungkook got to him on time."Jimin nods, wiping his face. Yoongi smiles, thumbing a stray tear away. The younger gives him a smile, before turning back to Jungkook."Thank you again for helping Tae. It eases my mind to know he has someone else watching over him."Jungkook blushes, gives him a short nod. Yoongi is walking Jimin out soon after. Jungkook cringes from his room when he hears the two kissing. When he hears the door close, Jungkook sinks into his bed."So," he hears Yoongi speak from his door. "You killed that demon last night.""I did," Jungkook sighs, back to Yoongi as he cuddles his pillow closer.Yoongi sighs walking over and Jungkook feels the end of his bed sink."We disposed of the body when you left. I spoke to Jin and he mentioned that demons tend to attack Taehyung constantly.""That sounds really strange," Jungkook says, making Yoongi raise an eyebrow. Taehyung hasn't told him anything, and he wont be the one to share that secret. Yoongi stands wordlessly, leaving Jungkook's room and closing the door behind him. Jungkook sighs, exhausted. He hasn't slept in two nights now. Sleep is calling to him.His phone dings, making his eyes fly open, hands scrambling to grab it. The screen lights up with a message from Taehyung.
taehyung

Gukkieeeeeee! Why did you leave? I wanted to cuddle you and make you breakfast.
Jungkook can't help but smile.
Gukkie <3

sorry, hyung. i had to take care of some things at home. are you okay?

taehyung

I'm okay! I just miss you and I'm alone :( Now I wont get to see you while I work on my thesis.

Gukkie <3

jimin just left my place to head over. i need bleach for my eyes after seeing him and yoongi naked.
Jungkook's phone rings, startling him. Taehyung was calling, and he quickly answers the call."Hyung-""JIMIN AND YOONGI SLEPT TOGETHER?" Taehyung yells on the other line. "THAT LITTLE DWARF!"Jungkook erupts into a loud laugh, hears Yoongi throw something against his wall to shut him up."Was he not supposed to?" he asks, still laughing."It's not that!" Taehyung answers. His voice is still deep with sleep, making Jungkook's skin tingle. "It's just that Jimin hasn't found anyone he can trust so this is huge! It means us setting them up was successful and I'm just really happy for him."Jungkook smiles. Taehyung was too sweet."Hey, Gukkie," Taehyung's voice is small; shy. Jungkook hums for him to continue. "I miss you."Jungkook's heart flutters, and he can feel his cheeks flushing. "I miss you too, Tae.""I have my thesis to write now, so I don't know when the next time I will see you will be," Jungkook can hear the pout in Taehyung's voice. "But I promise I will try my hardest to finish as soon as I can so we can see each other again." He says, stopping suddenly. "As long as you want to of course.""Of course I do, Tae," Jungkook smiles. "But you have to work hard on your thesis, okay?""Yes! I promise I will!" Taehyung sounds enthusiastic. "Seeing you again will be my strength to finish it!""I'll be cheering you on," Jungkook yawns."You haven't slept again, Gukkie?""I will now, I promise.""You better rest, okay?" He tries to sound threatening, failing and making Jungkook laugh. "Oh! Jimin is here! I'll let you rest and I'll talk to you later, Gukkie. I miss you!""I miss you most," Jungkook sighs when the call ends. He drops his phone on his bed, cuddling deeper into the mattress. After talking to Taehyung, he feels at ease and ready to sleep comfortably. When he finally drifts off, his lips are quirked in a permanent smile. ---"Thanks for meeting me here, Jungkook," Jin says as the younger slides into the booth in front of him."Of course, hyung," Jungkook nods.Jungkook had slept for a whole day. He knew he was exhauste, but he did not expect to sleep for an entire day. When he did wake up, his phone was filled with messages from Taehyung. It was the best thing to wake up to. The elder had been updating him on his thesis progress, remind him to eat, hoping he's getting a lot of rest, and apologizing for sending him so many messages. Jungkook sent a quick reply letting him know he had just woken up and that he didn't mind the messages.He had another text from a random number. Opening it, his eyes widen.
Hey Jungkook. It's Jin. I got your number from Yoongi. We didn't get to trade numbers the other night and I really wanted to talk to you. Would you be able to meet?
So there Jungkook sat in a dinner with Jin, who was watching him with a smile. They both proceeded to order, watching as the waitress left with their menus."Sorry to ask to meet with such short notice," Jin finally speaks.Jungkook shakes his head, "No, it was no problem at all. I should be apologizing for taking so long to reply. After leaving Taehyung's, I slept all day and didn't wake up until I finally replied to you."Jin shakes his head, chuckling. "You shouldn't be apologizing for sleeping, Jungkook. It's truly okay. I'm glad you slept after the events of that night."Jungkook can't help but blush. He's not used to being around a kind demon. It's refreshing. The waitress brings their drinks and Jungkook brings the cup closer, taking a sip with the straw. Jin watches him with a warm smile and it makes the younger sink into his seat. He's too shy for his own good. "So," Jin finally speaks. His expression is serious now, making Jungkook straighten up in his seat. "Was Tae okay when you got him home last the other night?"Jungkook nods, "Yeah, he was a bit shaken up at first, but he was able to calm down. He told me that this isn't the first time something like that happens. What does that mean?"Jin's eyes widen for a second, but he composes himself quickly."It's not the first time unfortunately," Jin speaks sadly, eyes glued on his drink. "Tae doesn't usually go out much. He's too afraid to. When he does, Jimin, myself, or the others keep lookout for him as best as we can. There have been times where things have gotten past us, though.""Have they always been demons like that night?"Jin nods, "I believe they're attracted to Taehyung's purity. Tae is also extremely attractive, I'm not blind."Jungkook laughs, almost spitting his drink. Jin smirks, raising a brow, "Would you agree, Jungkook?""W-what?" Jungkook chokes, a blush rising to his cheeks again. "I-I mean - h-he- I-"Jin erupts into a loud laugh, making the younger glare at him. "I'm sorry. You don't have to answer when I already know you agree. I was just teasing you."When the waitress returns to the table with their food, they're quick to instantly dig in. Jungkook hadn't realized how hungry he was after spending a whole day sleeping. He's sure the last meal he had was while they were at the bar for Taehyung's birthday. Spending time with Jin is entertaining for Jungkook. The elder makes him laugh so hard he almost chokes on his food with his dad jokes. He also finds out Jin and Namjoon have been dating for five years. They met in a cafe when Namjoon spilled his coffee over his lap. Namjoon had panicked, cleaning his pants with his own sweater. He had apologized profusely to Jin, and the elder asked him on a date as an apology. Namjoon never regret spilling his coffee over Jin since. "Hey, Jungkookie," Jin says, serious, once they're done eating. "I know you and Tae just met, but please keep him safe. He's a sweetheart and I can tell he's already extremely fond of you. As you are for him. He'll go above and beyond for you, like he does for everyone else. Just please make sure he's happy and safe."Jungkook is quiet, fiddling with his fingers over his lap. He's not sure what the right thing he should say is. There is no denying that he obviously cares for Taehyung. Jin already knows that. He's willing do anything for Taehyung. Jungkook has already accepted his feelings for Taehyung, even if he doesn't feel the same.When his eyes finally meet Jin's, he's determined. There's a fire in his eyes that makes Jin's eyes widen."I promise I will make sure he's safe at all times," Jungkook speaks, making the elder smile. "He deserves to be happy, and I will make sure of that.""I really like you, Jungkook," Jin chuckles, before he becomes serious again. "When are you going to tell him you're a demon. If you're worried, I promise he wont see you differently. He already knows about me, and-" He stops himself, making Jungkook raise an eyebrow. Jin shakes his head, continuing. "Just talk to him, okay?"Jungkook can't deny that he's not afraid to tell Taehyung. Jin is right, though. He should be honest with him. It's not fair for Taehyung to not know. His phone rings in his pocket, startling him. Taehyung was calling him. He quickly apologizes to Jin, who tells him to go ahead and answer the call."Hey, Tae. Are you okay?"Jin is watching him with warm fond eyes and a small smile. "I finished, Jungkookie!" Taehyung cheers. He sounds exhausted.Jungkook chuckles, "That was quick.""I worked hard and fast so I could see you again," Taehyung replies shyly. "Are you busy?""I'm having lunch with Jin. We were just about to head out.""With Jin hyung?" Taehyung sounds surprised. "Is everything okay?""All is good, hyung! Don't worry."Taehyung hums, "Would you, um, by any chance want to meet up?""I would love to, Tae," Jungkook smiles as his heart hammers against his chest. He didn't think he would see Taehyung for a while. Warmth fills his chest. "I'll pick you up in an hour?"Taehyung agrees, saying he'll see him soon before they're hanging up. Jungkook blushes as he pockets his phone when he notices Jin watching him with a raised brow."You're radiating with happiness," Jin points out, sliding out of his booth. Once outside, Jin wraps Jungkook in a tight hug. Usually, Jungkook would punch another demon who got too close to him. Jin is different. He returns the hug, smiling. "Take care of him, okay? And talk to him. He wont love you any less."Jungkook's eyes widen, pulling away from the hug. "W-what?"Jin laughs, covering his mouth. "Oops! Pretend you didn't hear that."Before Jungkook can say anything else, Jin quickly waves and runs away. He feels compelled to run after the elder and tackle him to the ground,. Instead, he sighs and turns the other way. In the train to Taehyung's dorm, he thinks about what Jin told him. He feels nervous thinking about telling Taehyung the truth. It's wrong to keep it from him, but it's not just something you tell someone casually. He also wonders what Jin had stopped himself from saying earlier. There was something he was hiding. Maybe there was more to why demons attacked Taehyung constantly. Jungkook finds himself in front of Taehyung's front door earlier than he expected. He shyly knocks, worried he should have waited a little longer or text Taehyung instead. The door opens, making his body tense."Oh! Hey, Jungkookie!" Jimin welcomes, letting him in. "Taehyung is still getting ready. You can sit and wait for him in the living room. Do you want something to drink?""No, thank you," Jungkook says as he sits on the sofa. "I just had lunch with Jin so I'm okay."Jimin sits on the sofa with him, asking him how lunch with Jin went. Jungkook is in the middle of his conversation with Jimin when Taehyung exits his room. A wide boxy smile adorns his face when he spots Jungkook. A breath catches in Jungkook's throat, his heart speeding up. As always, Taehyung looks beautiful, even though he's wearing ripped jeans and a plain blue hoodie."Hi, Gukkie!" Taehyung says brightly. "Sorry you had to wait for me with this fake friend."Jimin fake gasps, hand over his chest. "TaeTae, I am offended."Taehyung rolls his eyes, "Well, you are for not telling me details.""I told you as much as I can," Jimin chuckles, his eyes turning to Jungkook. "It's not my place to tell you anything else."Jungkook raises an eyebrow, confused. He doesn't know what Jimin could be talking about. All he can think of is how he slept with Yoongi, but he doesn't understand why he turned to him. He decides to ignore it.Taehyung is skipping next to him through the park later. Jungkook watches him with fond eyes. The elder truly was beautiful and pure. In short amount of time, he was so deep in love with Taehyung already. He would do everything in his power to make sure Taehyung was always safe and happy."Hey, Tae," his voice is low; nervous. "I-I need to talk to you about something.""What is it?" Taehyung watches him as they walk with worried eyes. Jungkook stops walking, making the elder stop as well, turning his body towards him. He licks his dry lips, swallowing the lump in his throat. Fuck. This was harder than he expected. He doesn't even know where to begin. His mouth opens, eyes determined and fixed on Taehyung's.Before the words can leave his mouth, something catches Jungkook's eye over Taehyung's shoulder. His eyes widen, grabbing Taehyung by the shoulders, pushing him to the side. The elder falls back onto the grass with Jungkook over him. They hear a loud explosion come from they were just standing. Jungkook whips his head back, gasping. He grabs Taehyung as hard as he can, pushing them off the floor. Taehyung's hands fist into Jungkook's jacket. Jungkook doesn't have time to think or analyze what he's doing. All he care about is protecting Taehyung. He doesn't think as he speeds across the park, hearing another explosion behind them."Stop running, little demon," he hears behind them from an unfamiliar voice.Jungkook pushes Taehyung to the grass again, shielding him from any debris that may hit him. He pushes himself up from the elder, his mouth opening to ask Taehyung if he's okay. The words catch in his throat. Taehyung's eyes are wide, watching him. He's breathing heavy, body shaking. "J-Jungkook?" he whispers, looking into Taehyung's crimson eyes. "Y-you're a demon?"

----- CHAPTER BREAK -----

Jungkook's eyes are wide, breath caught in his throat. He can't believe the words that just left Taehyung. The elder is still under him, who is watching him with panicked eyes, his face pale, and body trembling. Footsteps behind him remind them of their situation. It's not the time to think about Taehyung knowing he's a demon now. He has to protect him and get him to safety.Pulling the elder to stand, he feels Taehyung flinch from his touch. He pushes the pain in his heart aside, turns and stands defensively in front of Taehyung. There's a man approaching them slowly, a smirk on his face. Jungkook doesn't know this person, but he also can't sense him as a demon. There's a dark aura surrounding him, but he doesn't know what this person is."Who the fuck are you?" Jungkook snarls."Where are my manners?" The man laughs, stopping just a few feet away from them. Jungkook isn't comfortable with the short distance between them. He wants to grab Taehyung and run, but he doesn't think the elder wants to touch him at the moment. "My name is Uriel.""I don't give a fuck about your name," Jungkook growls, taking a step back closer to Taehyung. He feels the elder's breath against the back of his neck, his back almost pressed against his chest. Jungkook doesn't know why, but the name sounds familiar. "What the fuck do you want with us?"The man chuckles, "I'm here to kill you of course."Jungkook's eyes widen, "I don't fucking know you. Why the fuck are you after me?""Of course you don't remember," Uriel sighs, waving his arm in the air, a dark sphere the size of his head appearing over his shoulder. "Not like it matters."Jungkook's eyes widen, and he suddenly feels Taehyung's shaking hand grab his."J-Jungkook," Taehyung whimpers.Jungkook swallows the lump in his throat, eyes glued to Uriel in front of them, who is smirking darkly. He knows he can take this bastard, but he doesn't want to risk leaving Taehyung's side. It's him Uriel wants. Not Taehyung."Taehyung, I want you to run. Run as fast as you can and get to safety.""N-no," Taehyung sobs. "I can't leave you."Uriel releases the sphere towards them. Jungkook turns, grabbing Taehyung and throwing them aside. He cradles Taehyung's head as they fall, preventing the elder from hitting his head on the ground. Debris hits him in the back as he hears the explosion behind him. He flinches when a rock cuts into the skin of his thigh."Jungkook," Taehyung whimpers. Jungkook pulls back, eyes meeting Taehyung's worried eyes, tears gathering at the corners.Jungkook smiles, "I'm okay. Don't worry."Taehyung opens his arms, but Uriel laughs, interrupting him. Jungkook watches as the worry in Taehyung's eyes turn from worry to panic. Cupping Taehyung's cheek, he gently tilts his head so the elder is facing him again. He gives him a small smile, the crimson eyes disappearing as they watch the elder, now fond and warm."Tae, I promise I'll protect you, okay?" he whispers, thumbing away a tear that slides down Taehyung's cheek. "Do you trust me?" Taehyung is quick to nod, causing Jungkook's smile to widen. "Can you close your eyes until I ask you to open them again?"Taehyung nods again, lowly closing his eyes. He releases a long shaky breath from his mouth. "J-just please promise to come back to me? We still need to talk too.""I promise," Jungkook promises. He wants to lean down and kiss Taehyung, but he doubts the elder would like that.After taking a deep breath, Jungkook stands, wincing when he puts pleasure on the cut on the back of his thigh. He can feel blood seeping down his leg and staining his pants. Ignoring it, he turns to Uriel, who is watching him with amusement. The crimson returns to Jungkook's angry eyes, and he speeds towards Uriel, tackling him to the ground.Taehyung doesn't see what is happening around him, but he can hear the grunts and growls, along with fists hitting skin. He hopes Jungkook isn't the one on the receiving end in those fists. His mind is still trying to catch up with everything that has happened. He still can't believe Jungkook is a demon. Jin is the only demon he has ever trusted. He has always been afraid of demons. It started from the stories of the war between angels and demons, to demons hunting down angels. When demons suddenly began harassing him only made the fear worse. A part of him can't blame Jungkook for not telling him he was a demon since they had only just met. He can't help but realize that his feelings for Jungkook haven't changed. He's not afraid of the younger; he could never be. Jungkook is sweet and caring, but there's always a sadness in his eyes. It always pains Taehyung. "Tae," he hears Jungkook's soft voice over him. It relaxes his racing mind and shivering body. "You can open your eyes now."Taehyung slowly opens his eyes, meeting Jungkook's soft eyes. They hold the same sadness in them that always makes Taehyung's heart ache. His arm raises, hand cupping Jungkook's cheek. He thumbs over a smudge of blood on his cheek, whimpering. "It's not mine," Jungkook smiles. "Are you okay?""I should be the one asking you that, Gukkie," Taehyung whispers. He can't help the tears that stream down his face. Jungkook wipes them away with gentle hands. Taehyung doesn't know what state Uriel is in, doesn't want to ask or see. He prefers not knowing."Can you stand?" Jungkook asks, worried. They should get away from the mess Uriel created. "We should get out of here."Taehyung thinks about it for a second. His body still feels numb, shaking. He doesn't think he'll be able to stand without falling. But he doesn't want to inconvenience Jungkook, so he nods. The younger takes his hand, helping him up carefully. Taehyung's legs shake under him, instantly falling onto Jungkook's chest, who easily catches him. Jungkook chuckles, rubbing his hands against Taehyung's sides."S-sorry," Taehyung mumbles shyly."There's nothing you have to apologize for, hyung," Jungkook smiles, easily picking up the elder bridal style and pressing him close to his chest. Taehyung wraps his arms around Jungkook's neck, hiding his blushing face against his shoulder. "I don't mind carrying you."Taehyung is too shy to say anything else as Jungkook begins to run. He's careful not to rustle Taehyung, who quietly watches him with his head on his shoulder. Jungkook is too concentrated on getting them as far as possible to say anything. The elder's apartment is closer, but he doesn't want to risk being to close to the park. He's sure authorities would show up soon and be extremely confused at the craters left in the park. Thankfully there's no body left. After he ripped off Uriel's head, he disappeared into thin air, confusing Jungkook further. He's just glad Taehyung didn't have to witness the scene. It would surely traumatize him.Jungkook decides to take Taehyung to his and Yoongi's apartment. He gently sets Taehyung down on his shaking legs when they're in front of his door. His arm stays around his waist, keeping him up as he uses his free hand to unlock the door. Before Taehyung can complain, he's carrying him again, kicking the door closed behind them. He watches as Taehyung's eyes scan through the apartment. Their apartment is simple and dark. He's happy Yoongi and himself are clean, saving him the embarrassment of bringing Taehyung to a mess. Jungkook is also glad to notice Yoongi isn't home for once.In his room, he gently sits Taehyung down on the bed, stepping away and watching the elder with sad eyes. He's not sure what to say or if he should give Taehyung some time to rest. "Are you hungry?" he asks, licking his dry lips. "Do you need anything?"Taehyung shakes his head, smiling. "I'm okay. Thank you."Jungkook fiddles with his hands awkwardly. He's not sure what to do. Standing for so long keeps straining his injured leg. He should do something about it, but he's frozen in place. Something must show in Jungkook's face, because Taehyung's eyes fill with worry.Taehyung gasps, suddenly remembering. "Gukkie, you were hurt."Jungkook smiles, "It's nothing serious, Tae. Don't worry.""Of course I'm going to worry!" he huffs out. "Please let me help you...I can't get up, though."Jungkook chuckles, "I'll go get a med kit. You stay here, okay?"Taehyung nods, determined. Jungkook chuckles again as he disappears into his bathroom. He returns into his room with the kit, sitting next to Taehyung on the bed and handing it over to the elder. Taehyung thanks him, rummaging through the kit. "Take your pants off," Taehyung requests, nonchalant. Jungkook's eyes widen. He's embarrassed, but he knows he has no choice. Sighing, he kicks his boots off and slides his pants off, wincing when he rips the blood that has already dried over the wound. He throws the pants on the floor, laughing awkwardly when Taehyung asks him to lay on the bed face down. Taehyung is quiet as he works on cleaning and bandaging the wound. Jungkook can't help but wince every so often, chin resting over his arms."Hey, Gukkie," Taehyung whispers. Jungkook hums, signaling for the elder to continue. "I-I understand you not telling him you were a demon before. It doesn't change anything. I still care about you and want you in my life."Jungkook smiles, feeling his heart flutter. "I'm sorry I didn't tell you before. I was actually about to tell you before we were attacked."Taehyung can't help but chuckle, "At least that Uriel guy helped get the message out easier."Jungkook huffs out a laugh before turning serious again. "Still. I'm sorry I didn't tell you before. You deserved to know."Taehyung's brows furrow. He feels guilty. Jungkook is being truthful with him, but he's not doing the same with him. The younger deserves to know, but he can't get the words out."Y-you're done," he stammers instead, quickly distracting himself by putting away everything he used back into the med kit."Thank you, Tae," Jungkook sighs, smiling and sitting up. His knees are touching Taehyung's, making both of them blush. They're silent for a few minutes, watching each other closely. "Is there, um, anything you would like to know?"Taehyung straightens up, "I want to know more about you."Jungkook's eyes narrow, turning sad. Taehyung instantly regrets what he said. He's ready to take it back, but Jungkook takes a deep breath."I-I don't really know anything about myself."Taehyung cocks his head to the side, confused. "What do you mean?"Jungkook's fingers play with the bed sheets, eyes cast down on his knees. "I don't remember much about my previous life. I pretty much just woke up as a demon, with no prior memories. Yoongi found me and took me in, thankfully. I've always felt lost and like I don't know who I really am."Taehyung's eyes turn soft. He places his hand over Jungkook's, who smiles at the touch. Jungkook tenses when he spots the tears that are streaming down the elder's cheeks."Gukkie, I-I'm sorry that you feel like that," Taehyung hiccups, wiping his hand over one of his cheeks. "It has always hurt me to see the sadness in your eyes. I want you to be happy. You deserve it. I promise I'll help you find yourself and make sure you're always happy."Jungkook can't stop himself as he surges forward, pressing his lips to Taehyung's. The elder gasps, body tensing. He's quick to return the kiss, eyes closing and arms wrapping around Jungkook's neck. Jungkook's hands grasp Taehyung's sides, making him whimper. He moves forward, pressing the elder back to the mattress. His tongue presses against Taehyung's lips, who eagerly parts them for him. Their tongues swirl together, fighting for dominance. Jungkook's tongue explores Taehyung's mouth hungrily. His hands slide under Taehyung's shirt, his thumb rubbing against the elder's hip bones. When Taehyung moans, Jungkook breaks the kiss, watching as Taehyung tries to chase his lips. Taehyung opens his eyes, his pupils blown wide.He whimpers, "Why did you stop, Gukkie?"Jungkook smiles sweetly, stroking Taehyung's bangs away from his face. He can't help but place a soft kiss against the elder's forehead."I don't want to push you to do something you don't want to do.""W-who said I don't want this?" Taehyung whispers, wiggling his hips impatiently. Jungkook's eyes widen. "Tae, I don't want to hurt you.""I trust you. You won't hurt me," Taehyung's smile is genuine, his eyes shinning as they stare up at Jungkook. He reaches up with his hand, stroking his fingers through the hairs that fall over Jungkook's face. "You're so beautiful.""Fuck, Tae," Jungkook gasps embarrassed, pressing his forehead against the elder's. "You're making it really hard for me to hold back."Taehyung smiles, rubbing circles over the back of Jungkook's neck. "You don't have to hold back."Jungkook blinks, then chuckles. "I don't have condoms."Taehyung wraps his legs around Jungkook's waist, pulling him closer. "Stop making excuses and fuck me."Another chuckle leaves Jungkook. He trails his lips down, kissing Taehyung's neck, jaw, then his neck. Taehyung shudders, gasping. Jungkook smirks, latches his lips over the elder's neck, sucking a hickey. A moan leaves Taehyung against Jungkook's ear. It goes straight to Jungkook's cock, which is now straining against his boxers. Jungkook is gentle as he helps Taehyung sit up, removing his hoodie and shirt together. Taehyung falls back onto his pillows, hair haloing around him. His tan chest and cheeks are flushed, a light sheen of sweat glistening over his skin. It takes Jungkook's breath away."You're fucking gorgeous, Tae," he exhales, hands trailing up the elder's chest, thumbs stroking over his nipples. Taehyung moans, bites his bottom lip. Jungkook surges down, crashing their lips together in a messy kiss. His fingers trail down to the elder's pants, undoing the button and zipper. In a swift motion, he removes Taehyung's pants and underwear, throwing them aside on the floor. Taheyung's hard cock bobs against his lower stomach. Jungkook licks his lips at the sight below him. Taehyung is watching him with fond and expectant eyes. After removing his own shirt, he stands and discards his underwear, freeing his own hard cock. He's quick to grab a bottle of lube from his bedside table, returning to the bed as Taehyung whines and makes grabby hands. Jungkook chuckles, kisses Taehyung again. He can't get enough of kissing the elder. His lips are intoxicating.When he sits back again, Taehyung wiggles his hips impatiently. Jungkook laughs fondly, uncapping the bottle of lube, pouring it over his fingers. His eyes meet Taehyung's, who smiles and nods for him to continue.Jungkook rubs his pointer finger around Taehyung's rim, pressing his lips against the elder's to distract him. He swallows a moan that leaves the elder as he presses the finger in, making Jungkook's cock twitch. His lips travel down to Taehyung's neck, giving him time to adjust. When Taehyung presses his hips down on Jungkook's finger, he chuckles against the skin of his neck, moving his finger. Taehyung moans, fisting his hands into the sheets. "Ah, Gukkie, another please," he moans, squeezing his eyes closed.Jungkook gladly complies, pressing his middle finger in. Taehyung's back archest, pressing their chests together, his mouth falls open."Fuck, Tae," Jungkook groans, leaving another mark over Taehyung's collarbone. "You look so fucking gorgeous."A choked moan leaves Taehyung. Jungkook wants to hear more, so he begins to scissor his fingers. He keeps his eyes on Taehyung's face, watching for any sign of discomfort. The elder's face is only scrunched in pleasure, making Jungkook continue. When he begins to press a third finger in, Taehyung whines, his eyebrows crunched in pain. Jungkook instantly pauses his movements, dips down to kiss Taehyung again."Relax for me, darling," he whispers against the elder's lips. "You're doing so well for me. I got you."Taehyung visibly relaxes, nods for Jungkook to continue. Jungkook does, pressing kisses all over Taehyung's face. A choked moan leaves Taehyung when Jungkook's fingers brush over his prostate. His hands tighten on the sheets, knuckles turning white. Jungkook can't help but smirk, taking one of Taehyung's nipples into his mouth."G-Gukkie," He gasps, moaning as he speaks. "I'm, ah, ready. Please."Jungkook smiles, "I got you, darling."He slips his fingers out carefully, pushing himself up on his knees. After pouring lube over his cock, he rubs it down his shaft, groaning. He throws the bottle aside, settling between Taehyung's thighs. His hand guides his cock over Taehyung's rim, looking up at the elder."Are you ready?"Taehyung nods impatiently, "Y-yes, please."Jungkook pushes in, groaning once he's inside Taehyung's wet heat. He's still tight, so he pushes in as slowly as he can. His hands grasp Taehyung's waist, his eyes glued to the elder's face. Taehyung's mouth is agape in a silent moan, eyes shut tight, as Jungkook bottoms out. Jungkook leans in, pressing their chests together. He kisses the elder, sweeter this time, gentle. When Taehyung grinds his hips down, Jungkook knows he's ready. He pulls out, pushing in again. Taehyung's arms wrap around his neck, bringing them closer together. Jungkook is sets up a slow and deep pace at first, savoring the feeling of being inside of the elder. He wishes this moment could last forever."Harder," Taehyung gasps, tightening his hold on his neck. Jungkook is quick to comply, pulling out and pushing back in. His hips rock faster now, deeper, eliciting louder moans from Taehyung. The sound of their hips snapping together echo around them, along with their moans. "F-fuck, Tae," Jungkook groans. "I'm close.""M-me too," Taehyung moans, nails digging into Jungkook's back. Jungkook's hand wraps around Taehyung's cock, pumping it and smearing the precum over the tip with his thumb. He watches Taehyung fall apart under him, head thrown back with a silent moan as he cums on his hand. The elder clenches around him, increasing the burn at the pit of his stomach. He's cumming deep in the elder, gasping."I love you," Jungkook chokes out. He can't help it, caught in the moment. Taehyung looks beautiful beneath him as they both catch their breaths, coming down from their highs. The words don't process through Taehyung's hazy mind. Jungkook is also too out of it to realize what he just said.When he pulls out, Taehyung whimpers. Jungkook apologizes, kissing the elder's thighs. He shuffles over to his bathroom, returning with a wet towel. Taehyung sighs, sinking into the mattress as Jungkook gently cleans him off. He smiles, thanking the younger. Jungkook smiles, finishing and quickly tossing the towel aside and turning the light off, joining Taehyung in bed. He's quick to wrap his arms around the elder, bringing him closer against him. His lips press against Taehyung's temple, smiling when the elder sighs.Jungkook thinks back to what just had transpired between the two. His body tenses, remembering the words that had slipped out of him. There had been no reaction from Taehyung, making him wonder if the elder had caught his words. He hopes he didn't. Maybe Taehyung is already asleep. Taehyung opens his heavy eyes, moving his head so his gaze can meet Jungkook's. He notices the blush over Jungkook's cheeks and smiles."You're cute."Jungkook chuckles, kisses him softly again. He could honestly kiss Taehyung forever.They get comfortable under the sheets again. Taehyung's face is pressed against his chest as Jungkook presses his cheek to the elder's hair. His fingers are rubbing circles over Taehyung's shoulders, humming him to sleep."Sleep, Tae," he whispers, closing his own eyes. "I'll be here when you wake up."Taehyung hums, wrapping his arms around Jungkook's waist.Before he gives in to sleep, he mumbles, "I love you too."Jungkook's eyes widen. Taehyung is already asleep, leaving him with a thousand questions. What did this mean for them? What did it make them? Were they together or?There's a warm feeling around Jungkook's heart. He has never felt this happy before. Deciding to ignore the many questions, he enjoys the moment. They'll talk about it tomorrow. Curling deeper against Taehyung, kissing his forehead before he gives in to sleep as well.
