Alphas Twins ➸ TaekookV ✓

- Twenty-first -

He put on one of the baggy sweatshirts he was so fond of and left the room with a light heart. For the first time in days, he could feel the excitement bubbling up inside him.

The twins were waiting for him in the great hall, chatting in hushed tones. When he joined them, they each gave him a knowing smile before surrounding him with their reassuring presence.

It may have just been an outing to buy clothes, but for Jungkook it was much more than that. It was proof that he really meant something to them. A day out of the manor with his alphas. He was looking forward to it far too much to stay put.

Jungkook entered the shop with the twins beside him. The glass doors had closed behind them, isolating them from the hustle and bustle of the city. The interior was sumptuous: crystal chandeliers hung from the ceiling, and racks of fine fabrics and elegant cuts were neatly lined up. The boutique had been reserved just for them, a gesture from the twins that showed, once again, how much they cared about him.

"We wanted a moment to ourselves, without interruptions." Taehyung explained with a warm smile.

Vante nodded, adding more teasingly:

"Besides, you deserve to wear clothes that fit you. Even if you look adorable in our oversized ones."

Jungkook felt his cheeks flush again. He was happy to be able to share this special moment with them, and especially happy to know that the two men wanted it just as much as he did. It also reassured him a little, because he'd never really been in crowded places. When he was still with the Jeons, he'd only left the pack's premises on rare occasions. The twins seemed to have understood this, and they took it slowly together, one step at a time.

The first outfit he was offered was a light grey, tailored three-piece suit. The striped fabric was exquisitely fine, and the slightly fitted waistcoat emphasised his slim figure. In the fitting room, he felt strangely nervous. When he came out, the twins, who were waiting for him nearby, turned in unison.

"Perfect." Taehyung's voice was low, almost filled with wonder.

He took a few steps to adjust the lapel of the jacket on Jungkook, keeping a keen eye out for any alterations.

"It suits you perfectly."

Vante, for his part, took a moment to observe, arms folded. Then he smiled.

"Turn around a bit, sweetheart..."

Jungkook obeyed, turning shyly around. Vante nodded, satisfied, still keeping the 'god he's sexy' part to himself.

The fittings continued, each revealing a new facet of Jungkook. A cream checked suit, another in midnight blue velvet. Each time, the twins gave their opinion, sometimes serious, sometimes teasing. When Jungkook tried on a perfectly fitted white shirt, Vante, amused, pretended to be dazzled.

"I didn't think you could be any more adorable than you already were, but you've just proved me wrong, kitten." he joked.

Honestly, the two alphas had complimented him so much that Jungkook didn't know if his poor little heart would survive it. And neither did his cheeks.

As for Taehyung, he seemed more contemplative. He looked at each outfit carefully, adjusting a button here, a collar there, as if to make sure everything was perfect. Taehyung was always dressed with class, wearing almost nothing but three-pieces, while Vante was much more casual, in simple jeans and a T-shirt. Day and night. This was also what Jungkook liked.

As the boy put on his latest outfit, a charcoal grey woollen suit with delicately embroidered details, he caught himself smiling shyly as he looked in the mirror. Taehyung and Vante were watching him, each in their own way: Taehyung, standing next to him, was adjusting the sleeves with an almost solemn seriousness, while Vante, leaning against a rack, was devouring him with a smirk.

"I love this one..." said Taehyung as he crossed his arms, his eyes shining with pride.

"You're perfect, sweetheart..." added Vante gently, breaking the intensity of the moment with a teasing wink.

Jungkook, his cheeks flushed, murmured a barely audible thank you before turning towards them. The twins exchanged knowing glances, satisfied with their choice.

They then went to the checkout, where Taehyung quickly paid. Jungkook nearly fainted when he heard the price, and stepped in to stop him paying, but Vante grabbed him by the waist, pulling him away.

"Don't worry, it's our pleasure to take care of you." he said, kissing him briefly.

Jungkook fell silent immediately, secretly hoping that the alpha would do it again.
