### My Cute Enemy

---

**Tae**: Why do I always run into you, Jeon Jungkook?

**Jungkook**: Maybe because you secretly like me, Kim Taehyung. 😉

**Tae**: As if! You're more like an annoying fly I can't seem to swat away.

**Jungkook**: Ouch, Tae. That hurts. I'm wounded. 😢

*Tae rolls his eyes, trying to hide the small smile tugging at his lips. Despite the banter, there's an undeniable spark whenever they clash. Jungkook's playful grin and twinkling eyes always seem to disarm him.*

**Tae**: Well, maybe you should try being less... you.

**Jungkook**: And what would that entail, Mr. Kim?

**Tae**: Less smug, less irritating... and definitely less handsome.

*The words slip out before Tae can stop them, and he feels a flush creeping up his neck. Jungkook's grin widens, clearly enjoying Tae's discomfort.*

**Jungkook**: You think I'm handsome? I knew it! 😏

**Tae**: I didn't say that! I meant—ugh, never mind. Why am I even talking to you?

*Inside, Tae's heart is pounding. He hates how easily Jungkook can fluster him. It's infuriating. But there's also a part of him that loves their playful exchanges, the way Jungkook looks at him with those dark, intense eyes.*

**Jungkook**: Because you can't resist my charm. Admit it, Tae. You're falling for me.

**Tae**: In your dreams, Jungkook.

**Jungkook**: Oh, Tae, you have no idea how often you're in my dreams. 😉

*Tae's cheeks burn even more. He doesn't know how to respond to that without giving away how much Jungkook actually affects him. Instead, he huffs and turns away, trying to regain his composure.*

**Tae**: Whatever. I have better things to do than argue with you.

**Jungkook**: Sure you do. Like thinking about me?

**Tae**: Ugh, you're impossible!

*As Tae walks away, Jungkook watches him, his grin fading into a softer, more genuine smile. He loves teasing Tae, but he also loves the moments when he catches a glimpse of the real Tae, the one who hides behind all the bluster.*

*Jungkook thinks about how cute Tae looks when he's flustered, how his eyes flash with fire whenever they argue. It's a sight that Jungkook finds himself craving more and more. He knows there's something special about their dynamic, something that goes beyond mere teasing.*

**Jungkook**: (to himself) One day, Tae. One day you'll see how much I care about you.

*Meanwhile, Tae is trying to calm his racing heart. He hates that Jungkook can get under his skin so easily. But deep down, he knows there's more to his feelings. There's something about Jungkook that draws him in, even if he doesn't want to admit it.*

*That night, as Tae lies in bed, he finds himself thinking about their interactions. Despite the annoyance, there's a warmth in his chest that he can't deny. He wonders if maybe, just maybe, there's something more to their relationship.*

**Tae**: (whispering to himself) Maybe he's not so bad after all.
