"You never... came out to anyone else?" Taehyung asked Jungkook who nodded. "After that life-changing result of coming out, I didn't want to admit to anyone else and maybe some knew already, definitely some people would have caught on but I never admitted it. If someone asked I would dodge the question. The fear of rejection sinks in when the question comes up... and the facial expressions. God, I hate the facial expressions." Jungkook remembered exactly how his parents looked at him and it was a face of disgust. It haunted Jungkook actually.

"And Jia doesn't know any of this?" Taehyung asked Jungkook. "No, and she doesn't need to know. They love her more than anything, anyone, and... as much as I am jealous, I love that they love her. Jia is having the life I never got and I think that's good, for her at least." Jungkook tilted his head and sighed. Taehyung was not sure what to say to Jungkook since that was... a lot to take in and he wanted to say something comforting but... that was a lot. How could a parent who loved you one day just stop? You raised this baby and the moment they become their own person, you leave them? How do you act like they don't exist? How could any parent do that?

"... You're normal Jungkook." Taehyung suddenly spoke after being quiet for some while. "To them normal is straight and I don't know, loving God? Something along the lines but that doesn't make you different and if anything, that kind of normal is boring." Suddenly a small chuckle came from Jungkook, "Are you saying loving god is boring?" Jungkook asked and that made Taehyung sigh. "You're totally missing my point," Taehyung whispered to Jungkook who still had the same smile. "Thank you, Taehyung." Jungkook bit his lip and breathed in.

They were quiet for a bit. The room dark since Taehyung had to seem like he was 'sleeping' but it made Jungkook comfortable being able to talk to Taehyung in the dark without seeing his reactions to his story. Though what got to Jungkook? Was that Taehyung accepted him and maybe it was partly because Taehyung understood Jungkook in a way but Jungkook couldn't help but tear up as he looked at the bed. Feeling the tear run down the side of his nose and drip onto the sheets before he sniffled and raised his head with a light laugh. "Sorry- I-" Jungkook stopped himself from talking as he wiped his tears and shook his head.

"I just never... I never had anyone tell me I was normal." Jungkook admitted with a little crack in his voice. Trying his hardest not to cry but that was all he ever wanted. Was to be accepted when he came out but he got something different. So having someone he cares for accept him? It was nice and overwhelming at the same time. Taehyung on the other hand felt his heart break when he heard Jungkook. His heart already ached for Jungkook but hearing the boy crying because Taehyung accepted him? Holy shit Taehyung couldn't help but get teary-eyed.

Moving next to Jungkook, Taehyung hugged Jungkook and Jungkook leaned his head onto Taehyung's shoulder as he cried silently but the sniffles were still heard. "From the little time I've known you, I've realized how soft you really are. Your tattoos and masculine body gave off different vibes but you're such a big softie Jungkook, and a big tease, jokester if you will." That made Jungkook chuckle while removing his head from Taehyung's shoulder. "Yeah? Well... I got a lot of jokes to suppress my trauma so I'm glad you find me funny."

Taehyung smiled at Jungkook and hummed as he brushed back Jungkook's hair a few times before he then cleaned off the tears on Jungkook's cheeks. Cupping Jungkook's face with a smile that Jungkook could just barely see but it made his heart do this thing? He couldn't really explain it but the moment felt nice... so nice that... Jungkook found himself leaning in and Taehyung noticed that which made him lean away out of instinct. Jungkook noticing which brought him back to real life realizing that this was not okay. Taehyung is Jia's friend.

"I'm uh... I'm sorry I just.." Jungkook shook his head and started to move off the bed. "No, don't-" Taehyung stopped Jungkook from getting off the bed but Jungkook was rather embarrassed about what he tried to do so he stayed at the edge of the bed. "It's okay... I-" Taehyung tried to speak but he felt like his heart was beating out of his chest. So instead of speaking, Taehyung got off the bed and was sitting next to Jungkook who was looking down but soon after he looked at Taehyung. "... I... I never kissed anybody," Taehyung admitted with red cheeks.

"No it's okay- I was out of line. You're Jia's friend, I shouldn't have even thought about-" Jungkook stopped when Taehyung put his hand over Jungkook's mouth. "I want you to be my first kiss," Taehyung said boldly. Although his head was a mess, he really wanted Jungkook to kiss him. It was a once in a lifetime (as he thought) opportunity and well? he took it. "... Are you sure?" Jungkook asked Taehyung although he was pretty shocked. Taehyung nodding as he cupped Jungkook's face hesitantly but then had his hand move down to Jungkook's nape.

Massaging lightly, "I'm sure." Taehyung assured Jungkook who was stuck staring at Taehyung but with a slight nod, Jungkook cupped the left side of Taehyung's cheek and bit his lip as he leaned in again. Was this a bad idea? Probably but there was no going back. Then when their lips were ghosting over each other, Taehyung let out a breath he didn't know he was holding in. Then just seconds after, Jungkook was pressing his lips against Taehyung's. The sudden chills running down Taehyung's spine as Jungkook kissed him. Their lips locked on each other.

Tilting his head the other way, Jungkook kissed Taehyung again but it was like an experiment since Taehyung didn't move his lips at first but the second time Taehyung did and kissed Jungkook back. The grip on his nape tightening as Taehyung kissed Jungkook who pulled away slowly but Taehyung still kept a hold on Jungkook who ran his thumb over Taehyung's plump lower lip. Thinking that ended way too quick, Taehyung gulped. "... Can we do that again?" Taehyung asked shyly although he tried not to sound like he was shy.

Jungkook nodded, "Yeah, I- yeah, we can." Jungkook told Taehyung who nodded and slowly pulled Jungkook back in for another kiss. This time Taehyung got the hang of it and was kissing Jungkook back with just as much passion as Jungkook kissed Taehyung. It was gentle and slow, Taehyung loved it but eventually, Taehyung had fallen back onto the bed since Jungkook took more control. Hovering over Taehyung and deepening the kiss. Not planning to go any further but the two just couldn't get enough of each other.

Taehyung feeling scared but content with what was happening. Scared because he was literally kissing Jeon freaking Jungkook in his house where his parents were asleep and content because... this was what he wanted for some while even though he never admitted to himself. There was always a thought of how good of a kisser Jungkook was and he got to know how good Jungkook really was. Fucked up? Maybe but Taehyung honestly didn't care. "Okay... okay." Jungkook pulled away from Taehyung with a breathy chuckle. Their lips still ghosting over each other. "We need to stop." Jungkook licked his lips and looked at Taehyung.

"What? Why?" Taehyung asked and Jungkook chuckled yet again. "A lot of reasons." Jungkook simply answered. Taehyung frowned at that since he really liked kissing Jungkook and his few minutes with kissing Jungkook were freaking over. "Yeah- yeah okay." Taehyung agreed with Jungkook although he didn't want to stop. There Jungkook got off Taehyung and sat on the bed. "... My parents uh... uhm... they don't get up until six... so." Taehyung didn't know what Jungkook would do with that information but he hoped he would do something.

"Yeah?" Jungkook said while sitting on the bed. "...Yeah," Taehyung whispered back. With a laugh that he muffled, Jungkook took off his jacket. "Alright. Come here." Jungkook said as he then put his jacket on the floor. Climbing into bed and patting the place next to him in which Taehyung crawled over and laid next to Jungkook. The boy wrapping an arm around Taehyung who was blushing madly but thankfully the lights were out. Nothing was said as Taehyung moved closer to Jungkook who gave a reassuring squeeze and nothing had to be said.

The two said what needed to be said earlier and now they were simply just enjoying the comfort they both brought for each other. Taehyung falling asleep within an hour of laying with each other and even Jungkook happened to doze off before he had to leave Taehyung on the bed and sneak out. This was the start of something messy.. and Jungkook knew that but he couldn't help himself.
