“Kids, your uncle's Namjoon and Seokjin's early years started with the olive theory- I did mention this before, but I didn't tell you the context”
“...For many years we thought they were perfect, because of their little theory, if one person doesn't like olives then the other eats it, then they're meant to be”
“What's with Namjoon and Seokjin's theory?” Jeongguk asked Taehyung as they sat at the small circular dining table that was by the kitchen in Taehyung's shared apartment.
“What do you mean?” Taehyung raised an eyebrow.
“Like, ‘the olive theory’ what does it mean?” Jeongguk questioned as he ate a chip from a chip bag.
“It means that if one person doesn't like a certain food and the other does then they're the perfect match,” Taehyung explained with a shrug.
Jeongguk hummed before he pressed his lips together in thought. “Are they sure? Are they sure?”
“Probably..” Taehyung shrugged.
“Have you ever had that with someone?”
Taehyung took a second to think; he had never found someone like that before. “No, I haven't..”
“Would you think it's a perfect match if it happens to you?” Jeongguk asked softly before eating another chip.
“Maybe” Taehyung nodded. “What about you?”
“Me? I don't know” Jeongguk shook his head. “Maybe” He teased with a smirk.
“Oh ha ha” Taehyung leant back against his chair and sighed. “Anyway, Do you want a drink? Or anything else to eat?” Taehyung stood up.
“Yeah, do you have any of those ready made sandwiches? Or if not the ingredients for it?” Jeongguk asked as he watched the other walk around to the kitchen.
“We have the ingredients for it, I can make you one if you'd like,” Taehyung smiled.
“Please, oh! Also no tomatoes, they're too mushy for my taste, I have to take them out when I get them from the convenience store” Jeongguk huffed with a whine.
Taehyung stopped walking and looked at the other. “You don't like tomatoes?”
“Yeah..is that bad? Did I say something wrong?” Jeongguk looked at the other with a worry filled expression.
“No, no, it's not bad, it's just.. I love tomatoes” Taehyung replied, almost in disbelief due to their conversation.
“Huh..” Jeongguk's jaw dropped slightly. “I guess the theory is true” He smiled, showcasing his bunny teeth.
“Yeah..” Taehyung breathed before he cleared his throat and continued his way to the kitchen. “What type of meat do you normally have?”
“Any is fine,” Jeongguk replied. “I love lamb or pork or even chicken or steak- like anything is fine”
“Okay cause we only have chicken,” Taehyung replied from the kitchen.
“Cool” Jeongguk replied. “Now who- out of Namjoon and Seokjin, doesn't like olives?” He asked as he stood up and walked to stand in the kitchen doorway.
“Seokjin doesn't, well, that's what Namjoon says” Taehyung replied with a shake of his head. “I'm not too sure because while I have seen Namjoon eat olives, I haven't see Seokjin eat any”
“So? Do you think he does eat olives?” Jeongguk asked as he watched the other cut up some onions. “Or that he's just covering it up?”
“Even if he does, he's doing it to make Namjoon happy,” Taehyung replied. “Namjoon finds joy or even happiness that they have a thing that can bring them closer as a couple, even if Seokjin does tell him that he does like olives then they can make it work, it's just a small thing, it wouldn't make a difference”
Jeongguk hummed as he watched the other place the items of food onto some grain bread with some cheese on top of the chicken and the onion on top of that with the lettuce at the bottom.
“So the point of it is, to see your partner smile?” Jeongguk asked softly as he looked at Taehyung's face, watching as the other concentrated on cutting the sandwich in half diagonally.
“Exactly,” Taehyung nodded and handed the plate with the sandwich on it to Jeongguk.
“Wow..” Jeongguk muttered. “You made it look like a gourmet meal” He laughed as he took the plate in his hands.
“It's nothing special, it's just a sandwich” Taehyung shrugged and made his way back to where he was sitting before at the small dining table.
“But you made it, so that makes me happy” Jeongguk replied with a smile and sat down where he was before.
He picked up one side of the sandwich and took a bite; he hummed at the taste and sighed at the crunch of the lettuce.
Taehyung smiled at how the other looked; cute with his cheeks stuffed with food and his eyebrows furrowed. He laughed when he saw the other throw his head back and let out a heavy sigh.
“This-” Jeongguk covered his mouth as he continued to chew. “This is amazing-”
“Jeonggukie, it's just a sandwich” Taehyung replied with a laugh.
“But it's the best sandwich I've had” Jeongguk insisted as he swallowed his bite. “I don't get time to make them myself because of streaming, so I buy the ready made ones, they're not great, they could be better but god I'll be asking you to make me more of these..”
“Not in a-”
“Definitely not in a sexist way!” Jeongguk exclaimed. “Anyone can game and stream and anyone can be a chef!” He explained.
Taehyung laughed. “That's not what I was gonna say” He shook his head.
“Oh-” Jeongguk took another bite and covered his mouth as he spoke. “Then what were you gonna say?”
“I was gonna say ‘not in a partner way?’ But what you said made sense too” Taehyung replied as he watched the other eat.
“I mean..” Jeongguk muttered slowly feeling shy at the mention of them hypothetically being partners. “When you ask me, sure”
“I'll keep that in mind” Taehyung replied with a teasing smirk and then it dropped. “Say, does your fan base know your sexuality? Or even that you're going out with someone?”
“Uh..” Jeongguk thought for a second. “They know my sexuality but not that I'm seeing you”
“Oh?” Taehyung tilted his head.
“I wanna keep this in my private life for now-” Jeongguk nodded. “Until I'm ready to say and you're okay with it”
“Oh! Yeah of course” Taehyung smiled before slapping his forehead. “I'm sorry, I didn't think that you'd want to keep it private”
“No, no, it's okay, my fans know a lot but not everything” Jeongguk replied. “I'd rather tell them when I'm ready and you're okay with it”
Taehyung smiled before reaching over to his hand and grasping it in his own. “Of course I'm okay with it”
“Kids.. the story of how your fathers fans found out will be for another day because it was a shit show and we didn't know how to react to the situation..”
