Ceo Jeon
Chapter 1
The clock in the hallway read 10:07 PM when Jungkook finally pushed open the apartment door. His shoulders felt heavy, the day’s meetings still pressing on his mind, but the familiar scent of home wrapped around him instantly, loosening some of that weight.
The soft glow from the living room spilled into the entryway. Taehyung was curled up on the couch, legs tucked under a blanket, the television playing quietly in the background.
Jungkook let out a tired sigh and walked over, each step slower than the last, until he was right beside him. Without a word, he sank down onto the couch, his thigh brushing Taehyung’s.
Jungkook’s lips curved into a faint smile as he reached out, his fingers threading through Taehyung’s soft hair, caressing it slowly.
Jungkook
I'm sorry. There were too many meetings today. I'll come home earlier from tomorrow.
Taehyung just nodded, though a small pout tugged at his lips. His eyes stayed fixed on Jungkook’s, like he was trying to read the exhaustion hiding there.
Jungkook couldn’t help it he chuckled softly, then leaned in to press a warm kiss to Taehyung’s forehead.
Jungkook
Set the table, baby. I'll go, freshen up and come down in a bit.
Upstairs, Jungkook changed out of his suit, loosening the tie he’d been wearing since morning and running a hand through his hair. By the time he came back down, the faint scent of dinner made his stomach growl.
Taehyung was already at the dining table, plates and bowls neatly arranged, two glasses of water waiting. He looked up as Jungkook approached, and the sight alone Taehyung sitting there, waiting for him melted away the last of the day’s stress.
Jungkook slid into the chair right beside him, close enough for their shoulders to touch.
Without a word, Jungkook picked up a spoon, scooped a bit of food, and held it up to Taehyung’s lips.
He said. His tone teasing but affectionate.
Taehyung’s cheeks warmed, but he leaned forward anyway, taking the bite shyly. Jungkook watched him chew, the faint blush creeping higher, and smiled like it was his favorite view in the world.
Taehyung
Can I come to your office tomorrow?
Taehyung asked suddenly, breaking the comfortable silence between them. His eyes were bright, almost childlike in their excitement.
Jungkook
Don't you have classes, baby?
Taehyung’s lips instantly shifted into a pout.
Taehyung
If I skip one day, nothing bad will happen. I can cover it later… please?
Jungkook sighed, leaning back in his chair.
Jungkook
Why are you so stubborn, hmm?
Taehyung
Because I miss you. *Pouting*
That did it. Jungkook’s heart softened completely.
The pout disappeared in an instant, replaced by the brightest smile Jungkook had seen all day.
Jungkook
You’re unbelievable
Taehyung grinned wider, and they went back to eating, their conversation drifting into little things the weather, the new café that opened nearby, Taehyung’s plans for the weekend. It was nothing extraordinary, but to Jungkook, these quiet dinners were the best part of his life.
