Hoseok scoffed as he continued to stare at the couple across the lunch table— he wasn't the only one, all their friends had their eyes on them. "I thought it wasn't possible for them to be any more gay than they were before. But it looks like they proved me wrong"
Jungkook and Taehyung were sat next to each other on the lunch table today. Taehyung made it clear as soon as the bell went that he wanted to sit next to his new boyfriend. The rest of them had no choice but to comply and make a clear space for Taehyung to sit down next to the youngest.
Taehyung has his arm wrapped around the younger while they shared their lunch together, Taehyung holding up food to Jungkooks mouth personally and watching him take the bite.
Jungkook was clearly still getting used to it, despite being best friends with Taehyung for years. His cheeks were red and the others could clearly see he was embarrassed as they all watched.
Taehyung, like usual, had also spent a lot of time just being overly touchy with the younger. It was as though it was the law that Taehyung had to be physically glued to Jungkook at all times possible.
Ever since the day Yoongi forced the two to confess (god bless) things seemed to go back to normal... apart from the fact the two boys had a title now. Them being boyfriends wasn't much different from before, but at least it was obvious that they knew each other's feelings now and Jungkook, for one, was less fidgety and nervous to do or say literally anything to do with Taehyung.
Taehyung was even more blatantly obvious though (who knew that was possible?) and couldn't seem to keep his affection for the younger to himself. In fact even a few of the students in their class had been discreetly watching and whispering to themselves about the pair dating. Jimin happened to hear them one day, so he quickly whacked Taehyung on the head and told him not to be so blindingly obvious at school otherwise "the whole school will find out".
Unfortunately, he doesn't think Taehyung listened.
"Hey, can we take a walk?" Taehyung asked as he turned to Jungkook. "Outside?"
The younger nodded with a faint smile. "Sure" in all honesty, Jungkook was glad Taehyung suggested it, he was becoming a little overly shy while his friends commented on the two dating. Not to mention there was a slight worry that other people would find out.
Taehyung smiled back and pushed back his chair as he grabbed his backpack, swinging it onto his shoulders. The rest of their friends look up to see where they were going. He answered their thoughts before they could even ask. "We're taking a walk. Be back soon!"
Jungkook grabber his bag too and followed Taehyung out of the lunch hall.
As soon as they made it through the doors and out into the corridor, Taehyung made a reach for the younger boys hand.
Jungkook noticed and quickly shoved his hands in his pocket shyly, blush forming on his cheeks. Taehyung looked to him with big puppy eyes and a pout, confused why the boy rejected him. "Not now Tae" Jungkook mumbled quietly as he kept his eyes nervously on the floor. A few students were walking past down the corridor too, Jungkook didn't want to be out in the open just yet. "Let's wait til we're outside"
Once the pair were out in the schools garden, wondering along the field, jungkook offered his hand for Taehyung to take. The older grinned and wrapped his fingers around Jungkooks and began to swing their arms gently.
They walked in silence for a moment, admiring the way the trees sway in the breeze and the warmth of the sun on their face.
"Is there a reason you wanted to come out here?" Jungkook asked.
After a brief glance towards the younger, Taehyung pulled him over to the side under a shaded patch of grass. "I wanted to apologise again for what I did, i feel bad and I know it sucked."
Jungkook can't help but chuckle. He squeezed the older hand gently and smiled. "Hyung you already apologised days ago, it's ok. I forgive you"
"I know but— uh I just... I've liked you for so long too and I feel bad for making you wait like that."
"You have?" Jungkook gazed at his boyfriend intently, with big sparkling eyes and his mouth parted ever so slightly.
"Oh" Taehyung laughed despite his cheeks turning a light shade of pink. "Did i not make that clear already?"
Jungkook tore his eyes away and looked to the floor embarrassedly. "Uh,..well I guess I never thought about that."
The older took Jungkooks other hand in his own so that he was now holding both of the boys hands loosely in the middle. "Kook, I've had a big fat crush on you since forever, longer than i can actually remember."
"S-so have I!"
"Really?!" Taehyung began laughing to himself. "Did we really just go all those years afraid to confess for no reason? We could have been dating two years ago! We wasted so much time"
They shared a long, but surprisingly not awkward, moment of silence, Jungkook gazing at Taehyung, Taehyung gazing at Jungkook. That sort of thing.
It's not everyday that Taehyung is this calm. He's usually bouncing everywhere, he was so bubbly and happy that sometimes he couldn't sit still. However right now, he was happy just looking at the younger. He was happy memorising every single detail on Jungkooks face, every last bit. He was happy making that mental note about how beautiful Jungkook was and how he was amazed that someone like him exists. He had never felt so content with where he was right now. Holding hands with his best friend, and boyfriend!, on such a beautiful day.
He had amazing friends waiting in the lunch hall and the school term was finally nearly over. Thinking about spending the whole summer with Jungkook and their friends had never looked so exciting.
"Ah, you know...." Taehyung started, remembering something that happened not long ago.
"Yeah?"
"You never did remind me to do it again"
Jungkook blinked in confusion, looking ever so slightly nervous. "Do what again?"
Taehyung smirked. "This" he said before letting go of the boys hands and, instead, cupped Jungkooks cheeks as he leaned forwards and pressed their lips together.
He could feel Jungkooks cheeks burn with heat, which only fuelled Taehyung on. As Taehyung deepened the kiss, Jungkook rested his hands on the olders hips.
The older pulled away, just a bit (sooner than Jungkook had wanted) and let his hand drop so he could wrap his arms loosely around Jungkooks neck. When he opened his eyes he saw Jungkook had his mouth hanging open with a deep red blush and wide sparkling eyes.
"Better than the first time, wasn't it?" Taehyung laughed, knowing how embarrassing that was. He remembered getting home the next day and completely freaking out.
Jungkook was still too shocked to speak. He finally had his first—proper— kiss with Taehyung. He nodded his head, shyly.
"From now on, I think someone should stop me from having alcohol" Jungkook couldn't help laugh at that.
"Ok, I'll remember that next time we go drinking. shall we go back now? The others must be wondering where we are" Jungkook asked.
With a tiny bit of convincing, Taehyung agreed and they turned back towards the doors they came out of. However they noticed a group of boys were stood by it, looking their way with their hands in the air, someone of them even jumping up and down.
"Is that...?"
"Yeah" Taehyung answered for him, without even hearing the rest of the sentence.
Beside the door was their friends, cheering to them from across the field. Hoseok was jumping, Namjoon was whistling, Yoongi was clapping, Jimin had his hands in the air woo-ing and Seokjin...
well Seokjin was chanting the word
Taekook! Taekook! Taekook!
"Shall we go the other way?" Jungkook asked.
"Yeah. Let's"
THE END
