More Than Friends?
The music had softened, replaced by the low hum of conversation and the occasional burst of laughter. The grand hall shimmered under golden lights, casting a warm glow over the elegant decorations.
Yoongi raised an eyebrow as he noticed Jungkook tugging at his sleeve, something the younger rarely did unless he was truly bothered.
Min Yoongi
*Glancing at him lazily*
What’s with you? You’ve been restless since we got here.
Jungkook shifted on his feet, his eyes scanning the crowd like he was looking for someone. Or rather, looking at someone.
Jeon Jungkook
*Avoiding Yoongi’s gaze*
Hyung, let’s move to the front.
Min Yoongi
*Scoffing* Since when do you care about standing in the front at birthday parties? What, scared you’ll miss the cake?
Jeon Jungkook
*Rolling his eyes* *voice slightly clipped*
Just come.
Before Yoongi could argue, Jungkook grabbed his wrist and pulled him through the crowd, stopping right behind his mother, Jin.
Jin noticed them but said nothing. He probably assumed Yoongi had dragged Jungkook there—not realizing it was the other way around.
The lights dimmed slightly, drawing everyone’s attention to the stage. The birthday cake was placed in the center, its candles flickering as the crowd clapped.
He picked up the knife, slicing through the first piece of cake. Then, without a second of hesitation, he turned towards Taehyung, holding the fork out to him.
His fingers curled into fists at his sides, jaw tightening as he watched the scene unfold.
Taehyung, who had been clapping along with the crowd, blinked in surprise. He clearly hadn’t expected Bogum to offer him the first bite.
Kim Taehyung
*Softly, eyes widening*
You didn’t have to, Bogum.
Park Bogum
*Smiling warmly*
Of course, I did. You’re important to me.
Jimin, standing beside Taehyung, smirked as he crossed his arms.
Jimin
*Teasing* Taehyung-ah, looks like you’re getting special treatment today.
Kim Taehyung
*Sighing, shaking his head with a small smile*
He’s always like this.
Park Bogum
*Grinning* Can’t help it.
Jungkook’s chest tightened. His stomach churned with something unpleasant—something hot and suffocating.
It wasn’t just the fact that Bogum had given Taehyung the first piece.
The way Taehyung reacted so naturally, so comfortably.
They weren’t just friends.
At least, not the kind of friends Jungkook knew.
A bitter taste settled in his mouth, and before he could stop himself, he muttered:
Jeon Jungkook
*Voice low, almost hesitant* Hyung… when did Bogum get married?
Yoongi, who had been casually observing the scene, turned to Jungkook with a bewildered expression.
Min Yoongi
*Scoffing* What? Who said he’s married? If he was, don’t you think we’d get an invitation?
Jungkook’s eyes didn’t leave Taehyung. His mind was racing.
Jeon Jungkook
*Murmuring* *brows furrowed*
Then… who is Taehyung to him?
Min Yoongi
*Shrugging* I just told you. They’re friends.
Jungkook’s fingers twitched at his sides. His frustration simmered beneath his skin, a mixture of confusion and something far uglier—jealousy.
Jeon Jungkook
*Exhaled sharply, clearly unconvinced.*
Jeon Jungkook
*Still watching them*
Just look at them, hyung. The way they act in front of everyone… they seem like a couple.
Yoongi followed Jungkook’s gaze, watching as Bogum leaned slightly toward Taehyung, whispering something in his ear that made Taehyung chuckle.
Something inside Jungkook snapped.
Min Yoongi
*Frowned* *Clicking his tongue*
You’re overthinking.
Jungkook clenched his jaw. The rational part of him wanted to believe Yoongi, but he couldn’t.
Because deep down, something felt off.
Jeon Jungkook
Where is Taehyung’s husband?❄️
Yoongi blinked at the unexpected question.
Min Yoongi
*Sighing* *arms crossed*
I don’t know. I never asked.
Jeon Jungkook
*Brows knitting together, jaw tense*
Then… does he even have one?
Min Yoongi
*Exhaling, voice calm but firm*
Of course he has. I mean, he has a son. Probably his husband live abroad, and he stays here with the kid.
Jungkook’s stomach twisted at that thought.
The idea of Taehyung having a husband.
The idea of someone else claiming him.
That didn’t sit well with him.
Yoongi, watching him carefully, suddenly realized something.
Min Yoongi
*Lowering his voice* *eyes narrowing*
Jungkook… what’s going on?
Jungkook inhaled sharply, as if forcing himself to stay composed. His mind was a whirlwind of emotions, too tangled to sort through right now.
Jeon Jungkook
*After a long pause* I’ll tell you everything later.
There was something different in Jungkook’s tone. Something serious.
A chill ran down Yoongi’s spine as realization dawned on him.
Min Yoongi
💭 Jungkook wasn’t just asking out of curiosity.
Min Yoongi
💭This was something deeper.
Something that had been buried inside him for a long time—something he hadn’t even noticed himself.
And from the look in Jungkook’s eyes...
It was only a matter of time before it hit.
