GUK POV

I can't sleep.

Whether it's the change in time zones or the fact that I spent most of the flight confined to
the bedroom, I'm not sure.

But lying in bed and staring
at the ceiling isn't doing
anything for me.

I hadn't really expected Kook
to join me between the
sheets but a guy can hope.

He's absolutely gorgeous and that would've provided a fun distraction for a while.

But if I can't have sex and I
can't fall asleep, that really
only leaves one thing for
me: hard liquor.

And I'm pretty sure I
remember a bottle of scotch that's older than I am just
calling my name from the
liquor cabinet.

I'm not one to argue with a bottle of scotch, so I climb
out of bed and make my way over to the door.

It creaks loudly in the quiet darkness, That's the trouble
with these old buildings that have been around for centuries.

It doesn't really matter how
new the furniture is, the doors and the floors and even the
walls creak and groan
constantly.

Jungkook thinks it adds
character to the place.

I think it's annoying.

I move as quietly as I can
down the hallway, hesitating
for just a moment outside
Jimin's room.

I would never go in uninvited,
of course but I can't help but wonder if he's lying awake in there the same way I was
just down the hall.

Probably just wishful
thinking on my part.

Walking through the living
room on my way to the
kitchen, I look over at the
couch where Jungkook is asleep.

I'm measuring each step carefully to minimize the
noise from the old-ass floorboards and it's making
me feel like a burglar in my
own damn apartment.

Except he's not there.

I look back in the direction of
his bedroom, a flash of jealousy surging through me at the thought that he might actually
be in bed with Jimin after all.

But then I see his silhouette
in the large window.

His back is to me as he looks
out over the city.

It is a gorgeous view, with all
of Paris sprawling out in every direction as far as the eye can see but he's seen it before.

Why in the hell is he checking
it out now, in the middle of the night, when he would normally be asleep for hours by now?

Nothing good happens at this time of night is something
he's fond of telling me.

He's wrong.

Two in the morning is when things just start getting interesting.

"What do you want?"

His voice startles me out of
my thoughts, I don't even
bother asking how he knows
I'm standing there behind him.

It's just one of those things that goes along with being a twin.

Or maybe he just heard every creak and squeak and groan
that this old building made on my way out to the living room.

Whichever, it doesn't really matter.

"I came out here for a
drink." I say, continuing on to
the kitchen and grabbing the bottle of scotch from the liquor cabinet, right where I remember it being.

Maybe a little less full than I remembered but that's
probably my fault.

"I thought you'd be sleeping
by now."

"I tried." Jungkook says.

I'm just raising the glass to
my lips when he turns and
gives me a strange look.

Even from across the room, something about the
expression on his face makes
me freeze in place.

"Guk, do you ever think
about settling down and
getting married?"

I laugh, completely forgetting
to take a drink as I set the
glass down on the counter.

"What in the hell are you talking about? Getting married? No... I really don't think about that."

"Seriously, You don't ever
think about what you might
do if when you find that perfect Omega?"

"One you actually care about?"

"I like my life and my lifestyle."

I grab another glass and pour him a drink, too.

It seems like he might need it more than I do.

"I honestly can't imagine what
it would feel like to be tied
down to one Omega." I cross
the room and hand him a glass.

He takes it and gulps down a large drink without another
word.

"Why are you asking marriage questions out of the blue?"

I narrow my eyes as I watch
him, then nod my head in the direction of his bedroom down the hall.

"Do you have a special
someone in mind?"

"Don't be ridiculous." he says, shaking his head and turning back to the window.

"I wasn't thinking about him."

"I just wonder if I'm missing
out on something good by putting off a serious
relationship every time I get
the opportunity to have one."

He can't see the skeptical
look I'm giving him, but that's probably for the best.

I take a sip of my own drink
and consider his words.

While settling down and
limiting my possibilities sounds like a prison sentence to me,
I want to at least try to be supportive of... whatever the fuck he's talking about.

Still, I feel like it's my duty as
his brother to make sure he's
not thinking of doing anything stupid.

"Listen." I say, trying to keep
my amusement to a minimum.

"If you want to settle down and whatnot, I think that's some
thing you should consider."

"You'd probably be a better family man than I would, Just watch out for that magic ass."

"It'll fuck with your head and make you do crazy shit before you realize what's happening."

"Thank you for those words of wisdom." His tone is dripping with sarcasm but I don't care.

I've said what I needed to say, and he would be wise to take
it seriously.

"But I'm not looking for an enchanted ass."

"I'm talking about real-life
stuff here, Guk."

"Okay, I get it." I lie.

"And I've got your back with whatever you decide to do."

That last part is technically true.

I'll always be on His side, even when he's being an ignorant ass.

But I wonder if it might be too late in this case.

I have a feeling that whether
he was looking for it or not, he might already be hooked on
that magic Omega ass.
