Part- 3

The second time they met, Taehyung shared with Jungkook about his grandmother's passing. How much he had loved her, the fact that she had practically raised him. It was nice to be able to confide to someone, to tell his story.

Taehyung received very valuable advices towards photography from the younger boy, who really knew a lot and Taehyung was mesmerized by Jungkook's drawings. They were so, so good. It was a shame that the boy didn't want to show them to anyone.

Taehyung had also showed Jungkook some of his paintings, well via his phone though, because he couldn't bring a whole painting to the café and Jungkook always carried some of his photos, developed and he even let Taehyung keep a photo of the starry night, which Jungkook had taken summer.

[A/N: This picture was taken by me🌝..hehehe, it was before 2 years I guess.

This was captured in the sky during my plane journey.]

Time flew by really fast when the two of them were together and Jungkook and Taehyung's backpacks were stuffed with colorful notes filled with messages.

That's right. The two still communicatedby using small papers. It was fun, actually and totally unique. Taehyung has always had a rather bizarre taste and he was absolutely okay with odd way of communication.

But during the second week, he brought up the matter.

Jungkook-ah... when are you going to let me hear your goodly voice?

Taehyung noticed how the boy looked slightly uncomfortable, because of the question, but his expression scoon returned to normal.

You're not talking either, Hyung.

I'm curious about how your voice sounds like too...

Now Jungkook was almost pouting and Taehyung fought the urge to pinch the other's cheeks, the boy hated the fact that his parents wanted to pamper him at this age, so he was definitely not going to be fond of that action.

You'll be surprised... ha-ha :P

Taehyung wrote and actually stuck his tongue out, making Jungkook smile.

***A nice surprise?

I hope so! Anyway, are you hungry? I saw that there was a strawberry cheesecake when I ordered my tea***.

Taehyung turned the note towards the boy and saw how Jungkook gulped, probably imagining how the cheesecake would taste like. The boy practically idolized cheesecakes, the traditional one and all other types with different jam, fruits or chocolate.

Great, Hyung will treat you then!

Before Taehyung could get up and run towards the counter, Jungkook grabbed his arm, stopping him. The boy quickly released his hand and Taehyung felt kind of disappointed, he has always been fond of skinship, so Jungkook - holding his hand... yeah, that sounded and felt heavenly.

Taehyung wasn't a fool, he was aware of the fact that he liked Jungkook. As a friend, sure. But maybe there was something more?

Before, Taehyung looked forward to his Mondays the most, just so he could attend his favorite class. But now, Tuesdays topped his list, because Jungkook had morning classes on that that and Taehyung's last lecture ended at 3pm, so they had quite a lot of time until night and spent more time together.

Taehyung was always excited whenever he was around the younger, Jungkook energized him more than any coffee ever could. He really liked the boy's smiling face, how he seemed much more relaxed around him now and gosh, to Taehyung even wanted buy a tiny bunny and raise it. He almost got one four days ago when he passed by a pet store and saw a few bunnies from the window, there was one that stood out it had black fur and it was standing in the corner, away from the other of its kind.

And Taehyung really thought the small bunny resembled Jungkook- the way the boy stayed away from the other people, how shy he was even when he showed off his photos and that black fur... Taehyung was most definitely pleasantly surprised when Jungkook suddenly showed up with black hair last Friday.

Ah, what a time to be alive.

But no animals were allowed at the dorm, so Taehyung spent about 10 minutes staring at the bunny and he actually took a picture of it before he walked away, completely dejected.

Taehyung was also fascinated every time when the younger boy talked about his dream and how he wanted to improve his skills.

'Photography is the story I fail to put into words.' Jungkook had written down on one of the notes a few days ago.

I know I'm not very talkative, but I really want to convey my emotions through the camera, to show the others how the world looks through my lenses. So more people could see it from my point of view. The world, which "Jeon Jungkook" sees.

Well, shit... Taehyung was screwed.

He was 99.9% sure that he was developing a pretty huge crush on his newly-formed friend.

But can you judge him?

Jungkook was just... Jungkook.

And Taehyung couldn't help falling for the boy.

He even imagined serenading the younger with . He was sure that Jungkook would get super embarrassed and probably even the tips of his ears would get red because of the line "I wanna be your man." That would be hella adorable.

Kim Taehyung was doomed, Oh Lord!

[A/N: I ain't religious but yeah, I believe in angels.]

He just remembered that he was about to buy cheesecake for Jungkook before the younger stopped him and he was currently looking at him with his big eyes filled with question marks, so Taehyung grabbed his pencil (he had been using it to draw before Jungkook appeared and his pen was on the other corner of the table, so...) and wrote a short message, hiding it from the other boy. He then placed the note upside down and headed towards the counter.

Jungkook stared at Taehyung's retreating back for a few seconds before curiosity took over him and he flipped over the note.

His breath practically got stuck in his throat and he re-read the short message over and over again, glad that Taehyung couldn't see his face at the moment, because Jungkook was sure that he was currently blushing like an idiot.

Hyung really likes you, Jungkookie. So I want to treat you. Think of this as... a date! 😁

It was rather a chilly day but it was given since it was November already. The ripped jeans and t-shirts Jungkook loved wearing so much, had to be replaced by normal jeans, black pants and hoodies or sweathers. He was even wearing a coat today, because it was also quite windy. He thought about putting on a beanie as well, but decided against it in the last moment. Something, which he totally regretted right now because his hair was a complete mess.

It's been a month since he first met Taehyung and Jungkook was currently speed walking towards the cafe. He felt like he spent there more time than at his own dorm room, really... he only slept there. He usually worked on his assignments and projects at the cafe, with Taehyung by his side. The older often helped him, even when Jungkook didn't ask.

At times they simply listened to music, sharing either Taehyung or Jungkook's earphones. The first song they listened to together was Bulletproof: eternal by BTS and the younger boy had totally loved the song, he even asked Taehyung to play it a second time.

They even had the same taste in music and they weren't even surprised anymore. They also liked the same types of foods, though Jungkook liked spiciness a little bit more than Taehyung and he definitely refused to trade his delicious coffee for the tasteless tea, which the older drank daily.

Taehyung was actually offended when Jungkook had said that the tea he was drinking was terrible, be cause to the older it was damn tasty. One sip from Taehyung's cup was enough to make Jungkook never order that thing though, but as long as the other liked drinking it...

Neither of them brought up the 'date' thing again, Jungkook didn't even know if Taehyung was serious about that or if he was only joking. Probably the latter, since the older had a rather bubbly personality and liked goofing around.

It didn't change the fact that Jungkook felt funny whenever he thought about that message. Taehyung had even written that he liked him...

As a friend.

Jungkook always mentally added in his head. They were friends, but lately just the thought of meeting Taehyung was able to make Jungkook smile from ear to ear.

He didn't want to fool himself and think he was someone special to Taehyung. The older was so friendly and easy-going that he could befriend anyone he wanted. Sometimes Jungkook wondered why Taehyung even put up with him, but he could only be grateful, because the afternoons with the older were Jungkook's most sacred time.

He walked into the café and quickly scanned it with his eyes. He spotted Taehyung right away, he was sitting at their usual table and it seemed like the older saw Jungkook as well, because he smiled and the younger waved his hand before he went to the counter and ordered a hazelnut cappuccino.

He rocked back and forth on his feet, Promise by Jimin of BTS was gently caressing his ears and the boy really thought that the owner of the café should be a DJ or something, his taste in music was just wow, but the man was rather old and those songs really wouldn't fit a club or something, so things were okay like this. As he was waiting for his drink to be prepared, he glanced in Taehyung's direction and saw that the older was just twirling his pencil, while tilting his head to the side, staring at the book in front of him.

Taehyung just looked... ethereal.

Jungkook has always been a vivid admirer of Art and whenever he looked at Taehyung, he couldn't help but think that the older was exactly the definition of Art- his marvelous, fine features, his slender and delicate fingers, his long eye lashes, his bright smile, the charming beauty marks on his face.

Kim Taehyung was perfection and if Jungkook was a critic, he would give the older a score of 100/10 for sure.

The barista was quickly done with his order and Jungkook took his cup, which was filled with warm cappuccino.

He let his backpack fall on one of the chairs and sat across of Taehyung. They sometimes sat next to each other, but Jungkook definitely had a thing for Taehyung's use face, so he tried to every possible chance to look at the older and it was quite suspicious to do so if they were sitting side by side.

Taehyung set his pencil and book to the side, so he could fully focus on the boy in front of him. Jungkook was getting prettier and prettier every time he saw him or maybe Taehyung was falling deeper and deeper every single time he laid his eyes on the boy, he didn't really know, maybe it was both.

The cappuccino smelled really good and Jungkook wanted to warm up himself, so he took a sip without even blowing at the hot liquid to cool it off and hissed when he burnt his tongue.

"Jungkook, are you okay?"

The said boy froze, his aching tongue long forgotten because... Kim Taehyung had just spoken.

The older seemed startled as well and quickly covered his mouth.

And the two of them silently stared at each other.

Well... what was done was done.

[A/N: I know that this is a really small one shot of Taekook but please understand that I really take time to think and type the story and I don't really proof read because I am lazy.

Byeee! Have a good day!]

And I really loved the song Eight by IU ft. Suga. Min PD-nim is the best!!
