Snowflakes and Pouts! (Fluffy Taekook)
Episode 02
Snowflakes danced gently from the sky, blanketing the quaint little town in a sparkling white coat.
The main square was buzzing with holiday cheer as townsfolk moved about, setting up stalls for the upcoming Christmas festival.
In the center of the square stood a massive Christmas tree, its branches still bare, waiting to be adorned with twinkling lights and festive ornaments.
Standing at the base of the tree was Jungkook, bundled up in a red scarf and an oversized beige coat.
His rosy cheeks puffed out in frustration as he struggled to untangle a string of lights that seemed determined to defy him.
Jeon Jungkook
Why do these lights always turn into spaghetti?
he muttered under his breath, his voice soft and whiny. He tugged at the cord, only to have it knot further.
Jeon Jungkook
Ugh! Stupid lights!
Jungkook’s pout deepened as he crouched down, attempting to make sense of the tangled mess. The chilly air nipped at his nose, making it turn an adorable shade of pink.
Across the square, a tall figure stepped out of a sleek black car.
Kim Taehyung, dressed in a long camel coat and a scarf that matched his sharp features, surveyed the festive scene with mild interest.
He had just moved to this small town, seeking inspiration for his photography, and was curious to explore its charm.
As his gaze wandered, it landed on a petite figure by the Christmas tree.
Taehyung’s lips curled into a smile as he noticed the omega’s puffed-up cheeks and the way he muttered to himself while fighting with the string of lights.
was the first word that crossed Taehyung’s mind.
Feeling mischievous, Taehyung decided to approach. He crossed the square in long, confident strides, his boots crunching against the fresh snow.
Kim Taehyung
Need some help there?
Taehyung’s deep voice broke through Jungkook’s frustrated grumbles.
Startled, Jungkook looked up, wide doe eyes meeting Taehyung’s sharp, curious gaze.
For a moment, Jungkook froze, his mind registering the alpha’s striking appearance.
The sharp jawline, soft brown eyes, and a teasing smirk that tugged at the corners of Taehyung’s lips—all of it left Jungkook momentarily speechless.
Then, reality snapped back.
Jeon Jungkook
N-No, I’m fine!
Jungkook stammered, clutching the tangled lights protectively as if Taehyung might steal them.
Taehyung chuckled, his smirk growing.
Kim Taehyung
You sure? It looks like those lights are winning the battle.
Jungkook narrowed his eyes, his pout intensifying.
Jeon Jungkook
I can handle it! And anyway, who are you?
Jeon Jungkook
I’ve never seen you around before.
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung!
the alpha introduced himself smoothly, slipping his hands into his coat pockets.
Kim Taehyung
I just moved here. Thought I’d check out the Christmas preparations.
Jeon Jungkook
Jeon Jungkook!
the omega replied, standing up and brushing snow off his knees.
Jeon Jungkook
And I don’t need help, Mr. Taehyung.
Taehyung raised an eyebrow, amused by Jungkook’s feisty tone.
Kim Taehyung
Just Taehyung is fine. And are you always this stubborn, or is it just for me?
Jungkook’s cheeks flushed a deeper shade of pink, this time from embarrassment rather than the cold.
Jeon Jungkook
I’m not stubborn! 😤
he huffed, crossing his arms.
Jeon Jungkook
I just don’t need help from a stranger.
Taehyung’s smirk widened as he watched Jungkook’s adorable pout.
he said, taking a step back.
Kim Taehyung
I’ll just stand here and enjoy the show, then.
Jungkook glared at him before turning back to the lights, determined to prove he didn’t need assistance.
However, his fingers were cold, and the lights seemed to have a mind of their own.
After several more minutes of struggling, Jungkook let out a frustrated whine, stomping his foot.
Jeon Jungkook
This is impossible!
he cried, throwing his hands in the air
Taehyung chuckled, stepping forward again.
Kim Taehyung
Alright, let me help.
Kim Taehyung
Think of it as a goodwill gesture from your new neighbur.
Before Jungkook could protest, Taehyung gently took the string of lights from his hands. His warm fingers brushed against Jungkook’s, making the omega’s heart skip a beat.
Kim Taehyung
See? You just have to be patient.
Taehyung said, expertly untangling the lights in a matter of seconds.
He handed the neatly untangled string back to Jungkook, who looked at him with a mix of surprise and reluctance.
Jeon Jungkook
Well… thank you.
Jungkook mumbled, avoiding Taehyung’s gaze.
Kim Taehyung
You’re welcome.
Taehyung replied, his tone teasing.
Kim Taehyung
But you could’ve just said yes from the start and saved yourself the trouble.
Jungkook shot him a look, his pout returning full force.
Jeon Jungkook
You’re awfully smug for someone I just met.
Kim Taehyung
And you’re awfully pouty for someone who just got helped.
Taehyung countered, his smirk never faltering.
Before Jungkook could come up with a retort, a voice called out from behind them.
Park Jimin
Jungkook-ah! Are the lights ready yet?
Both of them turned to see Jimin, Jungkook’s best friend, approaching with an armful of ornaments. Behind him was Yoongi, carrying a ladder and looking as clumsy as ever.
Jungkook called back, quickly taking the lights to avoid further teasing from Taehyung.
Jimin stopped when he noticed Taehyung.
Park Jimin
Oh, hello! You must be new here.
he said with a friendly smile.
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung!
the alpha introduced himself, bowing slightly.
Jeon Jungkook
This is Jimin, my best friend.
Jungkook said, gesturing toward the bubbly omega.
Jeon Jungkook
And that’s Yoongi, his partner.
Yoongi gave a polite nod as he set up the ladder.
Park Jimin
Well, welcome to our little town!
Park Jimin
I hope you’ll join us for the Christmas festival. It’s always a lot of fun.
Kim Taehyung
I’m looking forward to it.
Taehyung replied, his gaze drifting back to Jungkook.
Jimin’s sharp eyes caught the subtle exchange and a sly smile crept onto his lips.
Park Jimin
Well, it seems like you’ve already made a friend.
Park Jimin
Jungkook’s great at showing people around.
Jungkook’s eyes widened, and he waved his hands defensively.
Jeon Jungkook
I-I didn’t say I’d—
Kim Taehyung
I’d like that.
Taehyung interrupted, his smirk making Jungkook’s cheeks heat up again.
Jimin giggled, clearly enjoying Jungkook’s flustered state.
Park Jimin
Great! Then it’s settled.
As Yoongi climbed the ladder to hang the ornaments, Taehyung leaned closer to Jungkook.
Kim Taehyung
Guess I’ll see you around, Jungkook.
Before Jungkook could respond, Taehyung turned and walked away, his confident stride leaving an impression on everyone in the square.
Jungkook stared after him, his heart racing and his pout still firmly in place.
Jeon Jungkook
What’s his deal?
he muttered, but his voice lacked the annoyance it usually carried.
Jimin nudged him playfully.
Park Jimin
He’s cute, isn’t he?
Jungkook stammered, his blush deepening.
Jeon Jungkook
He’s annoying!
Jimin laughed, his eyes twinkling with mischief.
Park Jimin
Sure, Jungkook. Sure.
As the snow continued to fall, Jungkook found himself glancing in the direction Taehyung had gone, his mind replaying the alpha’s smirk and warm touch.
Unbeknownst to him, Taehyung was already looking forward to their next meeting, his heart inexplicably lighter after their brief yet memorable encounter.
