The Day; You Moved In To My Heart
³
A few days later, Taehyung kept his promise. The afternoon sun was gentle, and the air smelled faintly of rain from the night before.
He knocked on Jungkook’s door. When Jungkook opened it, he was wearing a soft grey T-shirt and jeans, his hair slightly ruffled like he’d just run his hand through it.
Kim Taehyung
~ Ready for the grocery store?
Taehyung asked, smiling. Jungkook nodded.
Jeon Jungkook
~ Yeah. I made a list, but I’m not sure if I’ll find everything.
Kim Taehyung
~ That’s why you’ve got me. Your personal guide.
Taehyung said playfully. They started walking down the quiet street. Taehyung pointed out little things as they passed the bakery on the corner, the small park with a single bench, the shortcut to the bus stop. Jungkook listened carefully, sometimes asking small questions, sometimes just smiling at Taehyung’s words.
Halfway there, a breeze blew past them, and Jungkook reached up to fix his hair. The motion was simple, but Taehyung’s eyes followed without meaning to. He quickly looked away before Jungkook noticed.
Jeon Jungkook
~ You've lived here long?
Kim Taehyung
~ Since I was sixteen. It’s quiet… sometimes too quiet.
Jeon Jungkook
~ Guess it won’t be that quiet anymore.
The words made Taehyung’s heart jump. He wanted to say something back, but the moment felt too warm to break. When they reached the grocery store, Taehyung grabbed a basket and followed Jungkook inside. It was nothing special just the local shop but walking the aisles together felt strangely intimate.
Jungkook kept leaning toward Taehyung to show him the items on his list. Sometimes their shoulders brushed. Each time, Taehyung felt a spark. At one point, Jungkook reached for something on the top shelf and almost dropped it. Taehyung caught it just in time. Their hands touched just for a second but it was enough for both of them to glance away with shy smiles.
By the time they left the store, the sun was setting. The sky was painted with soft pink and gold.
Jeon Jungkook
~ Thanks for today. I feel like I know this place a lot better now.
Jungkook said as they walked back. Taehyung smiled.
Kim Taehyung
~ I’m glad. And… if you ever get bored, you know where to find me.
Jungkook looked at him for a moment longer than necessary, then nodded.
Jeon Jungkook
~ Yeah.... I do.
The walk back felt quieter, but not in a bad way. It was the kind of quiet where hearts spoke louder than words.
