"Hell no!" Jungkook shouted as he ran from Jin.

"Yah! Language Jungkook!" Jin reported as he chased his younger friend around his bedroom, attempting to put on a woolly pink jumper with a bunny print on him. "Stop running from me and put this on" the older commanded. Jungkook just frowned and refused to comply.

"Oh come on. You'll look like a cute little bunny" Jin fantasised at how adorable Jungkook would. Jungkook just glared.

"Namjoon a little help here?" Jin asked the male who was just lying on Jungkook's large bed listening to music. Namjoon turned his attention to Jin.

"Jinnie it is a little weird" Namjoon confessed. The oldest narrowed his eyes at him. Namjoon quickly retracted and went straight back to listening to music. Jin just rolled his eyes.

"Fine, what would you like to wear then?" Jin asked to which Jungkook immediately grinned and ran to his huge wardrobe to pull out a white t-shirt. Jin shook his head. 'Why am I not surprised...' He said to himself followed by his sigh.

"Fine wear that then" Jin gave up. Jungkook jumped excitedly and ran to his bathroom to change.

Both Namjoon and Jin followed the younger's trail with their eyes. Jin continued to stare after Jungkook meanwhile Namjoon turned to his older friend.

"It's weird seeing him like this" he said simply.

"I know" Jin replied, "before he would just tag along, not even smiling at anyone. Now he's just...well that."

"It's nice seeing him all happy over something for once" Namjoon analysed.

"Yeah...although before he would do as he was told" Jin stated and proceeded to clean up. Namjoon couldn't help but smirk at the other.

"I'm done!" Jungkook announced as he walked into his bedroom wearing a white t-shirt and a pair of jeans for his date with Taehyung. Jin got slightly teary-eyed at the sight of his youngest 'child' looking like a mature man.

"Well then I guess my work is done" Jin said as he recompose do himself. Namjoon helped the older pack up their things to take back with them.

"Umm..." Jungkook began timidly but was clearly heard by the others. "Can...can you give me a pep talk?" Both older males couldn't help themselves and cooed at how innocent their younger friend is.

"Alright, so firstly-" Jin started.

"Uh guys" Namjoon interrupted, gaining the attention of the other two. "It's 5:30pm" he informed. Jungkook started to panic.

'Oh god...' The youngster thought to himself in his hysterical state. It was so close to his meeting time with Taehyung and he wasn't fully prepared for it.

"Right that's it. We will do it on the way" Jin commanded and all three hurried to pack up as quickly as they could to leave themselves enough time.

Jungkook gathered his things, put on his jacket and let the maids know that he was leaving to go out. Closing the door behind him, he walked towards Namjoon and Jin who were sitting in Namjoon's car. He opened the back door and strapped himself in. Namjoon started the vehicle and proceeded to drive to town as quickly and safely as possible.

"I didn't know you could drive" Jungkook said from the back seat as they drove out from the estate's long driveway and tall gates.

"Of course I can" Namjoon boasted.

"But why drive when you have your own driver?" Jungkook curiously asked.

"Why walk home when you have someone to drive you?" Namjoon countered with a smirk.

"Good point" Jungkook agreed. Jin was too busy checking himself in the car's mirror to take note of the conversation.

"We don't have the time" Jungkook muttered as he lowered his head.

"There is no such thing as time when it comes to perfection" Jin replied confidently as he continued looking at himself. Both Jungkook and Namjoon looked confusingly.

"He meant no time to prepare for the date" Namjoon stated.

"Oh" Jin simply replied with a hint of embarrassment. "Okay so on your date, make sure you be confident but not too confident so that you are arrogant. Definitely compliment him a few times, not too many because then he will think you're a little strange and trying too hard" Jin started to list out.

"But you always tell me to compliment you, like constantly" Namjoon interjected with a pout as they got closer to the city.

"Precisely" Jin shrugged and continued. "Buy him gifts and whatnot, I mean you have enough money to do it"

'But what if he thinks I'm trying to buy his affection' Jungkook thought and immediately started to doubt himself. Both Jin and Namjoon noticed it straight away.

"Look Jungkook, there is nothing wrong with buying him things. It shows you care" Jin said.

"I don't want to come across like some spoilt rich kid who just flashes his money to flaunt it to everyone. Taehyung's not like that. I know he works extremely hard for money and had to give up a lot in order to survive while I can get whatever I want" Jungkook expressed making his older friends smile at his maturity.

"You've really fallen for him haven't you?" Jin teased making the younger blush as an answer.

"If you are feeling that strongly about it just pretend that you aren't from a wealthy family" Namjoon suggested. Jin and Jungkook hummed in agreement.

'I hope he doesn't see through me' Jungkook worried in his head.

"We're here" Namjoon announced as he parked the car near the coffee shop, snapping Jungkook out from his inner thoughts. All three got out and checked the time. It was 5:55pm.

'Yes right on time' Jungkook mentally cheered. The trio walked to the front door to the coffee shop and smelt the warm sensation of coffee emitted from inside filling the winter air.

"Now Jungkook" Jin turned to Jungkook and began to speak. "Don't be scared. This might be your first time going on a date with someone but it's nothing to be afraid of" Jin advised. Namjoon hummed in agreement.

"Okay" Jungkook replied timidly.

"Go on inside and good luck" Jin said as him and waved bye to Jungkook as he entered. Jungkook turned to wave and them and watched them walk back to the car holding each other's hands.

'I wonder what it would be like to hold Taehyung's hand' the young male wondered as he took a seat at an empty table. He looked around and didn't spot Taehyung anywhere. He glanced to the clock on the shop wall seeing it read 5:58pm. Jungkook groaned in response. Each second seemed to last longer than the previous one. Once it turned to 5:59pm, Jungkook started to panic. Taehyung still hadn't shown up.

'What if he stood me up?' Jungkook worried and his demeanour went down. His head slowly fell but was brought back up by the sound of the coffee shop door opening.

His eyes went wide at the sight. He saw the man he was waiting for enter inside. Spotting Jungkook, the said male smiled and made his way over to his table. Jungkook couldn't help but gawk.

'Taehyung really is beautiful.'

A/N: Hey all! Thought I'd do a longish chapter because I haven't been writing in a while so here you go. Any criticism or improvements is greatly accepted and welcome as I would appreciate it if you guys let me know what you think of it so far as well as this chapter. Sorry if this chapter is a bit dreadful, I was writing this at like 23:45pm so I'm very tired.
Anyway the next chapter is indeed 'the date' so I'll be writing that at some point so please expect that and we will see where we go from there. (Teaser: Jungkook will be confessing his feelings)

Stay happy and healthy! :)
