They stared at each other for a few seconds before realizing their current predicament.
Jungkook was the first to react, immediately turning around but didn't leave the room.
"Oh my God, Tae I'm so sorry. I swear I didn't see anything."
Taehyung was too shocked that he couldn't even utter a word. He just quickly grabbed the blanket from his bed and covered himself up. He was about to run to the bathroom but then he stumbled upon some bags on the floor. Right then and there he realized that it was an honest mistake.
He calmed himself down and said, "O-okay. Um, you can you go to the room across the hall and I'll bring you your bags. I'll just put some clothes on."
Jungkook sighed, "T-Thanks, Tae. Again, I'm really sorry." Without looking at Taehyung, JK stepped out and closed the door behind him.
As the door closed, Taehyung plopped himself on the bed and stared at the ceiling.
How am I going to face him again?!
He said he didn't see anything
But I saw his abs. Oh my God he has abs!! (squirming and giggling, then stops)
I need to bring his bags to him. Ugh! Why did I even suggest that?
I'm going crazy
Taehyung stood up and went to the bathroom to wash his face. He knew he had no choice but to bring Jungkook his bags.
I can do this
Just bring out the sassy Taehyung out
And with that, Taehyung got himself dressed picked up Jungkook's bags and mustered up all the confidence he had inside him.
In the other room, a shirtless Jungkook was sitting on the bed. He's been cursing himself for the past ten minutes for not paying attention to Min-ho's instructions. Just then, he heard a knock on the door.
Jungkook goes to the door and opens it. It was Taehyung with his bags.
"Here you go," Taehyung said.
Jungkook gets the bags from Taehyung and place them on the floor. Taehyung got distracted and his eyes wandered on Jungkook's abs for a few seconds. Jungkook noticed and was tempted to tease Taehyung, but decided otherwise considering what just happened.
"Thanks, Tae. I'm sorry again. I got confused with the room assignments."
"Stop apologizing. Let's just forget about it okay?" Taehyung said with a reassuring smile.
"Okay" Jungkook smiles back.
"I'll just go see if Jin needs help in the kitchen." Taehyung said.
" Okay, I'll follow."
Taehyung leaves for the kitchen, leaving Jungkook who has never felt so relieved in his entire life.
***
It was dinner time and all seven boys were eating a hearty meal prepared by Jin. They were talking about random stuff until Taehyung asks about BTS.
"So, I guess all of you can sing since you're in a K-pop group?" Taehyung asked.
"Let's just say six of us can carry a tune." Hobi said laughing.
"You see, Taehyung three of us are rappers. That's me, Yoongi and Hobi. JK, Jimin and Jin are vocalists. But, I have to say thay Jungkook is the best singer of the group." RM said.
Taehyung looking unconvinced said, "Really?"
"Yes, really. That's why he's called the Golden Maknae." Jimin said.
"Can you sing for me?" Taehyung asked giving Jungkook puppy eyes.
Jungkook melted and simply nodded to the question.
"How about you Taehyung? Can you sing?" Suga asked.
"In the shower, yes." Taehyung chuckled.
"How about we do some karaoke?" Jimin asked excitedly.
"No way. I never sing in front of people much so in front of a K-pop group! I am at a disadvantage."
"Oh come on, Taehyung let's do it for fun." Jimin said.
"I'll just be spoiling all the fun." Taehyung giggled.
"I'll sing with you." Jungkook intently looks at Taehyung with his big doe eyes.
Taehyung freezes for a moment and gulped. How can I say no to those eyes?!
"O-ok, but don't say I didn't warn you."
They all stood up and went to the living room. Taehyung sets up the karaoke machine, takes the song book and gives it to Jungkoook.
"So, what do you want to sing?"Jungkook asked.
"I don't know. What do you usually sing? I mean, apart from your songs. Sorry, I don't know any BTS songs."
"It's okay. Who's your favorite artist?"
"Coldplay."
"I like them too. What about "Fix You"?"
"Okay."
Jungkoook punches in the number, gets two microphones and handed one to Taehyung. Music starts. They stand up.
"I'll start first." Jungkook says and sings the first stanza.
Taehyung started fidgeting hearing how Jungkook sings. He was slowly losing his resolve but regaining it back when he looks at Jungkook's eyes staring back at him.
The second stanza starts and Taehyung began to sing. Jungkook's eyes widened as his jaw drops. The other five boys almost snapped their necks, suddenly looking at Taehyung.
Taehyung's deep singing voice was so beautiful they were all astounded. In the chorus part, Jungkook decided to duet with him and their harmony was nothing but perfect.
"What the fuck?" Yoongi couldn't help but curse at how good Taehyung's voice was.
"Joon, they sound so good together." Jin whispered to RM.
"Well, they look good together too." RM was shaking his head in amazement.
"And he says he can't sing?!?!" Hobi said.
"I can't believe he only sings in the shower." Jimin sighed.
When the song finished, Jungkook just stared at Taehyung. Taehyung noticed and felt his cheeks get hot. He's now red as a tomato.
The room fell silent. Taehyung looked at their faces and said,
"I told you I can't sing!"
"What do you mean?!? Have you really listened to yourself?!?" Jimin was shrieking.
"You should sing more, Taehyung and when I say more I mean show people what you've got." RM said.
Taehyung was still skeptical. "Are you serious?"
"I've been in this industry for more than ten years, Taehyung and I haven't heard anyone sing like that. You're a gem." Yoongi said.
"Thanks. I never really thought about it. I mean, I never really had the opportunity to sing outside the confines of my room. Nobody knew I could sing. Not even my mother. I didn't even know I could."
"Tae, you were magical. Anyone who hears your voice will fall in love with it.," Jungkook said.
"Just his voice?" Jimin teased.
"Among other things," Jungkook looked at Tae. He doesn't know where he got the courage to confess openly. He just felt that it was the right time at that moment.
Taehyung's cheeks flushed.
Just then, they were interrupted by the doorbell.
"I'll get it." Taehyung said.
He opened the door and when he opened it, he was attacked by a hug.
"Taetae!!!" It was Min-ho.
"Hey jerk, what brings you here?" Taehyung asked.
"I need to talk to you."
Jungkook saw the interaction between the two and he didn't like it one bit. Jin noticed it and he nudged Jimin motioning the latter to look at Jk.
Min-ho looks at the guys in the living room.
"Hi, guys." The boys all greeted him except for Jungkook whose tongue is now poking on his inner right cheek.
"Come on let's go to my room." Taehyung said clutching on Min-ho's arm and dragging his bestfriend to his room.
"See you later guys." Min-ho waves.
As Taehyung and Min-ho left the room, Jungkook looked like he wanted to punch someone.
"Hey, calm down lover boy." Yoongi said.
"Why do they have to talk in Taehyung's room? Can't they talk somewhere else?" Jungkook said.
"Maybe they needed privacy." Hobi said.
"Privacy my ass." Jungkook stood up about to leave.
"Hey, where are you going." Jin asked.
"I'm going to work out." And with that, he went to the basement.
"Looks like someone has got it bad" Hobi said.
"I've never seen him like this before." Jin said.
"Well, he never really liked someone before." Yoongi said.
"Let him cool down. You know how he gets when he's being so competitive. I'll talk to him later." Jimin said.
***
Taehyung sat cross-legged on his bed, while Min-ho plopped half of his body on the bed, beside Taehyung.
"So, what happened?" Taehyung asked his bestfriend.
"It's Yuna. She brought up the whole marriage thing again." Min-ho said with a sigh.
"What do you expect Min-ho. You've been together for eight years."
"I know that. It's just that I feel like I'm not ready yet. I just got a job and I don't think we have enough to start a family."
"Well, who said that you have to start a family immediately? Maybe Yuna just wants to be with you all the time."
"Taetae, we're together all the time."
"But, I guess it's different when you're married? It's different when you're the first person she sees when she wakes up and the last one before she sleeps."
Min-ho looked at Taehyung with furrowed brows.
"Who are you? What did you do with Taehyung?"
"What do you mean?!"
"You're saying mushy things. That's not you. What's happening?"
"Nothing's happening you're overanalyzing."
Min-ho smirked. "Is this about Jungkoook?"
"What?! What does Jungkook have to do with this?"
"Yuna told me a very interesting story."
"Well, your girlfriend has a tendency to jump to conclusions at times."
"Did you see the way Jungkook looked at me when I hugged you earlier? If looks could kill I'd be dead by now."
"You're exaggerating AND hallucinating"
"No, you're just being oblivious as always."
"There's nothing going on between the two of us."
"But, you want to." Min-ho teases.
"Oh shut up. Let's go back to the topic. You're digressing again." Taehyung blushed.
"Omo! You blushed!" Min-ho pointed at his friend's face.
"I did not!"
"Did too."
Taehyung grabbed a pillow and started hitting Min-ho. Min-ho left Taehyung's bed and ran outside the room. Taehyung ran after him. They reached the living room where the others are currently singing. Taehyung caught up with Min-ho and started hitting him more with his pillow.
"Take it back!" Taehyung said.
"No!"
The rest of the boys were just watching them, amused with the two friends. Just then, Jungkook arrives and sees the two on the floor. Taehyung straddling Min-ho hitting him with the pillow.
Min-ho saw Jungkook and decided to grab Taehyung's arms to stop him. He looks at Taehyung then Jungkook and back. Taehyung got the signal so he looked back and saw Jungkook staring at them. He immediately gets up and helped Min-ho stand up.
Jungkook's expression was scary and it brought chills down Taehyung's spine.
The room was silent and nobody dared to speak.
"I'm going out for a walk." Jungkook said and walked out of the house slamming the door behind him.
