Chapter 2 : Namsan Date

~ BANGTAN ENTERTAINMENT DORMITORY

Jungkook was turning and twirling before the mirror, getting ready for his date. It's just a hangout according to Taehyung but not for Jungkook. Wide smile on his face, satisfied with his look. Light brown neatly styled hair with some pink highlights, blue and white tie dye denim jacket left open over a white turtle neck sweater, hoops earrings.

After checking him out for a hundredth time, headed out of his room. His big smile caught his roommates attention.

" Mind telling us where you're going? " asked his roomate 1 who's laying down on his sofa, raised his head to get a better view of Jungkook.

" Are you going on a date or something? " he asked in a teasing tone, which made Jungkook cheek go rose red.

" Let me guess heading out with Taehyung. " his roomate 2 popped out of nowhere, to join in teasing him.

" Oh...now I know why he's so cutely dressed " flopped back on his sofa.

" Ah...Hyungs why are you teasing me. " Jungkook made a pouty face which made both his hyungs laugh wide of his cuteness.

" No! he's right you are cute " his roommate 2 made a comment and laughed at his still pouting cute roomate.

" Alright...we won't make fun of you loose that pouty lips. So, where are you headed. " this time not so... teasing.

" I'm taking Taehyung hyungie to Namsan Tower. " Jungkook said shyly playing with the hem of his sweater. They said nothing more but a light giggles where heard. Jungkook's cheek turned bright red now.

" Hyungs!! "

" What, we said nothing "

" Yea...but let us know if you had your first kiss "

" Suga hyung!! " Jungkook's shyness is at it's peck thinking of what his Suga hyung said. Cupping his shy face with his hands. Both were laughing hard seeing the younger's reaction.

Jungkook share his dorm with his Suga hyung and Namjoon hyung. They both were the producers and songwriters of their company. They are young but they are the most brilliant and talented songwriters. Jungkook stayed with them since the beginning. He was basically their little baby. They never scolded him for anything but, they do advice him if he did something bad like his parents.

" Suga stop. See, he is like a tomato now " Suga laughed looking at Jungkook, yea... Namjoon was not wrong he is looking like a tomato.

" Alright have fun. Bye "

" Yea have fun and be careful "

" Ok hyungies, bye see ya. " after waving goodbyes to his hyungs he rushed out to his car.

[ Time Skip ]

Taehyung's dorm was not far away, they live in a same campus, just a few blocks away. Jungkook slowed his car seeing Taehyung waiting for him outside his dorm. Jungkook climbed down his car and stilled on seeing Taehyung walking towards him. He looked stunning, neatly styled silver hair, red buttoned up shirt with black pants that shaped his legs in a perfect way, drop down earrings made him look ethereal.

Jungkook was awed by his beauty.

" Hey! " Taehyung called out.

" Hey..." let out a breath that he wasn't realised holding so far. " Beautiful " Voice barely visible but still caught Taehyung's attention, for a moment he looked shy " Thanks, You too. Shall we? "

" Yeah " Jungkook opened the door for him. Soon, they traveled towards their destination for today's date or hangout like Taehyung refer.

~ Namsan Tower, Seoul

After getting tired of touring around some gift shops, museums and photo studios, they reached the revolving restaurant on the top floor, rotates at a rate of one revolution every 48 minutes. Reservation must be done atleast 2 days prior the date of visit. Thankfully Jungkook did it beforehand, basically he asked Taehyung after reservation. He was thankful that he accepted.

It was a classy french restaurant with round tables neatly arranged near the big tall glass walls, a perfect dating spot yet they refer this as a "hangout". They were guided by the staff to their reserved table. It had this perfect view of the city. Night Seoul is like heaven.

Jungkook pulled the chair for Taehyung to sit. Then he himself went to the opposite chair.

" Restaurant is so beautiful." Taehyung complimented admiring the view outside.

" Yea, I always wanted to come here. I'm so happy you came. " Taehyung gave him a sweet smile. They both checked out the menu and ordered steak along with red wine. They ate their food in comfortable silent, no words were exchanged but they both felt comfortable around eachother.

After finishing their dinner, they came out for a walk in the roof terrace where ' love locks ' can be found. Jungkook wanted one too. He wished to put a lock together with Taehyung, though he knows that's not gonna happen.

Suddenly, Taehyung stopped in his track and looked at Jungkook. Jungkook looked confused " What's wrong? "

" Let's put a lock together " just like that Taehyung shoot out the words. But, he doesn't know what that does to Jungkook. Jungkook was confused for a second, 'did I heard that right? How did he...did I said that out loud?' for a second he cursed himself.

Taehyung continued, " It seemed so cool. So, I thought I'll put it on with you. If you don't want to, it's ok. "

" No, I'm ok with it. " Jungkook replied without any delay.

" Then let's put it on, come on. " Taehyung became excited and dragged him towards it. Taehyung wrote something on the lock, then he and Jungkook locked it together. Only then Jungkook noticed the writing on the lock ' TAEKOOK '

" What's taekook " he asked Taehyung in confusion.

" Tae for Taehyung and kook for Jungkook. It's us. Taekook "

Taehyung may have just made it up. But, for Jungkook it meant a lot.

" Taekook " he repeated again. His face is a burning mess now with all the overwhelming shyness. Taehyung doesn't know how much power he have over Jungkook. The power of turning him into a tomato just like that without any effort.

They walked over to the edge towards the railing. The cool breeze made Taehyung to shiver a little. Jungkook noticed this and took his jacket to cover Taehyung.

" It's getting cold these days, you should wear something warmer " he said it in the most soft tone while covering Taehyung with his jacket. Taehyung mouthed a ' thankyou ' along with a warm smile. He pulled and enclosed the jacket close to his body. He turned his focus towards the city again. They stood there in silence before Taehyung starts speaking,

" Seeing the city from this high makes it look small, peaceful, safe. But, as we go near all we see is troubles, hate for each other, regrets. Wouldn't it be nice if we just stay far away. That way we can just stay safe and it makes life less difficult. " Jungkook turned and gave his full attention towards Taehyung as he speaks. " But still, we choose the hardest path anyways. Though, we have our regrets later, all we want to do now is to live in the moment and feel as warm as possible before it's taken away. "

Jungkook doesn't understand a single word but he nods anyways and turned towards the city.

They stood their in silence, enclosing the warmth. Who knows what future holds for them, right now all they want to do is to live in the moment. Feeling the warmth as much as possible before it turns cold.
