Yoongi doesn’t believe in connections.
He neither believes the power and the convenience of the supposed connections he has, not because he worries about the ethical parameters of pulling some strings (he literally could not care less if someone talks shit behind his back), but because Yoongi’s never found any real use for them.
His dad says that he has a friend who works as the head of security in the newly-opened outlet mall in the city, and unless Yoongi’s planning on shoplifting a pair of authentic, luxury cargo shorts (that’s in either a hideous color or has an outrageous factory defect like the zipper being stitched on backwards), he’s not really scrambling at the offer, if it even sounds like one to his dad, with his hands outstretched for the car keys.
Yoongi has also heard from his mom that she has a second cousin who’s a dean in this one university that’s hard to get into. Nevermind the fact that the department she’s heading has something to do with numeracy (and the other glaring fact that Yoongi has to whip out a calculator to make sure he knows what he’s doing with the numbers on the microwave) — his aversion towards even considering the offer of being directly enrolled stems from the fact that the said uni is literally hard to get into because the building’s two hundred years old and he doesn’t want to give himself the stress of having to talk to the walls.
It’s not to say exactly that Yoongi’s turning his back on the entirety of connections his family has and the opportunities they could offer. He’s not saying never to the chance of being able to enter a flagship frozen yogurt store three hours away from his house, thirty minutes early (he doesn’t even know for what reason) or shaking his head at the prospect of one day renting a comically large bounce house and rock wall bundle for a party free of charge.
It’s just that Yoongi has no will to exercise his connections, nor believe in them in the first place, because there’s not one that’s ever really benefitted him yet.
It’s to your understanding, however, that Yoongi’s your mom’s best friend’s son, and that fact alone makes you believe in the sheer beauty and providence of having connections.
The first time your mom’s best friend’s son, Min Yoongi, properly interacts with you— outside of seeing him in passing during compulsory family photos in reunions (where you had to take over for your mom multiple times in taking pictures because she just does not seem to ever grasp the concept of taking a photo without her thumb on the way) and video calls between your moms (where the two of you had no choice but to take over because they just kept making the mistake of calling the wrong people) — is at your family’s dinner table.
Yoongi thinks your family’s a hoot to be with, really, even with the way your dad’s dry sense of humor is rubbing off on his own and the way the wallpaper in their bathroom just keeps changing with every Pinterest board your mom could conjure.
He doesn’t mind that much; he doesn’t mind the closeness nor the rapidly growing amounts of teasing, because although Yoongi’s always known that you and him basically grew up together without being around each other that much at all, he figures that it’s harmless.
It’s harmless for the both of you to know far too much about each other without having even been left together alone in a room, because he figures that it’s just what moms do. It’s harmless for your moms to keep telling the other random details about their lives and their children specifically, because while you know that Yoongi had once mistyped 40 seconds for 4 minutes in the microwave and almost gave their kitchen a very, very bad day, you don’t know if his eyelashes are short or how many piercings he has on each ear.
Now that Yoongi’s here though, right next to you at your family’s dinner table, because your parents are engaged in a heated debate about whether carrots are better eaten in their original or in their miniature form and you’re the only children here for this, you realize three things.
First, Yoongi’s lashes are long and dense that point downwards, and second, is that he has two piercings on each ear.
Third, is that you thank every auspicious thread in your life because Yoongi happens to be your mom’s best friend’s son, and you’ve never seen someone so charming and enigmatic up close.
"You could feed them to the dog so it's not as obvious," he leans down to whisper, eyes pointedly lingering at the way you’ve basically scooted all of your vegetables to the side.
"We don't have a dog," you mutter defeatedly, voice fading to a chuckle when you look up and realize that he’s too close; like he’s too familiar with you to the point that he doesn’t see any issue in having his face just inches away from you in attempt to be discreet, when really, it would take an earthquake and a half to even pull your parents out of their debate.
“You don't?" he tilts his head, scrunching his nose in confusion. "Why's there a collar and a leash in your coat rack then?"
"Because I thought buying them would pressure my parents into letting me adopt one.”
Yoongi chuckles softly, the amused smile that settles on his face making you blink once, twice, the weight of his lazy, comfortable expression almost distracting you from the way his hand moves to your plate.
"Here. That's my share," he nudges his head to your vegetables, chewing and swallowing the noticeable dent he had made on your plate without even flinching. “Rest is yours."
"But it tastes horrible," you frown. "You only want it because you're from a granola household," you murmur, the slip of your tongue making you purse your lips immediately. "No offense. Love your mom, by the way."
"What kind of example would I be if I don't force you to eat your veggies?" Yoongi rolls his eyes, resting his cheek on his palm with an almost bored (and slightly entertained, you hope) look to his face.
You should be grateful that he even considered helping you out, but it just doesn’t hit you yet. You don’t want to count your blessings immediately because Yoongi doesn’t look like he’s going to stop being gratuitous anytime soon.
Almost as if you don’t see him leaving your thread of connections within the future.
"Fine. Just one more spoonful,” he yields, mistaking the wistful, dazed, and slightly unhinged expression behind your eyes (you wonder if Yoongi knows about the sidewalk rule, or what side of the bed does he sleep on, and whether or not he’s the type to jump to your family plan or the other way around) for genuine distraught over him not helping you.
You can’t help but feel a little too fulfilled; a little too prideful of being connected to Yoongi, who’d clear the mountain of vegetables on your plate when your mom’s in a crazy, nutty health kick, even if you’ve never gotten the opportunity growing up to ask him what flavor of scented erasers he liked nibbling on or when his first kiss was.
You like Yoongi.
You like him and his ginger hair and the undercut that’s working really well for him, even more than your older sister’s best friend’s cousin who sells imported factory overruns of your favorite jeans (read: the Japanese selvedge denim that you’d never tell anyone where you got it from when they react to your pictures).
You like him and his habit of chewing on nothing when your conversation dwindles and you’re still racking your brain for tangents to continue it, even more than your uncle’s ex-wife’s (who always had you as her favorite) new husband’s food truck that sells your favorite baked potatoes.
You know you would like Yoongi, whether or not he’s your mom’s best friend’s son — it’s that simple.
It’s not so simple, however, when he lingers by the edge of the living room when he hears the telltale patter of your parents ramping up to say their goodbyes, right after decimating each other’s Letterboxd reviews. You didn’t want him to go just yet; you wanted to hear more of his stupid opinions and see his stupidly handsome face even longer.
"You know, it wouldn't be so bad if you just bring home a dog and then ask for permission later," he hums. ”It's not like they can do anything about it."
"And have me and the dog brought back to the shelter?"
"I can convince my mom to have your mom go easy on you," Yoongi shrugs.
"But she's a cat person and mom's just— she's a person, alright. She doesn't even want to have a pet fish."
"Who do you think made her a cat person?" Yoongi snorts, slightly struggling to put his coat on which makes you have the knee-jerk reaction of scrambling to help him, the sincerity (and almost rabid eagerness) of your hands making his eyes widen momentarily. ”I brought in a stray, then she made me sleep out in the porch for a night, but now? She literally cradles Miso to sleep."
It should just be another tidbit about Yoongi that you’re supposed to forget.
It should just be another seemingly insignificant nugget of information that would awe you, but never endear you to the point that you find yourself thinking about him and your red thread (one that you keep tugging on telepathically because although you exchanged numbers and socials, he’s not doing… anything) — something that wouldn’t keep you up at night.
Yoongi and his horrible, godforsaken influence don’t leave you at all.
Yoongi, your mom’s best friend’s son, and the stupid, detailed facts you know about him linger in your system like a red thread stands out on the pink linen runner in your family’s dining table.
You text Yoongi, late in the night, just once, with a picture of a comically large, skrunkly, and funky-looking dog on your lap, whom you could finally call your own.
her name’s veggie :]
Yoongi sends just one text back in the morning, attached with a picture of Miso sprawled out, sleeping on his shoulder with remnants of cardboard in her mouth.
yippee!!!!!!!

Yoongi’s your ear seeding guy’s roommate.
Jin who’s not really a licensed auriculotherapist, but who’s your age and Just Happens to be fond of sticking little tiny beads on his ears and his clients (three including you and himself), doesn’t have an actual shop he could call his own yet.
To have one, it would mean he actually needs to get a certification for what he’s doing instead of practicing his self-taught degree from Reddit University, with his esteemed professors being his grandparents, his parents on a good day (when they’re not being undermined by their parents), and some person aliased Jay M. Rings on Etsy who not only sells him his equipment, but keeps answering his questions.
More importantly, Jin (whom you only knew of because he was sat next to you in the library and flicked your conch when he heard your stomach audibly grumble) would need to rent out a place that would bleed him dry, assuming nobody would pay the ideal 400% upcharge to your existing payment so he could keep the spot.
It doesn’t bother you at all that Jin keeps the ear beads next to the orange juice in his fridge. It doesn’t make your brows draw knowing that he forgets to ask you atleast 75% of the time what you were in for before he starts working. It doesn’t even perplex you when you hear Jin hum for two solid minutes right after you ask him what could possibly happen to you if said beads were to fall right into your ear canal.
The only singular time that Jin, your uncertified but family-trained auriculotherapist, actually makes you perk up into attention is when he leaves you momentarily in the living room of his shared dorm, muttering how you might see his roommate but you’ve got nothing to worry about because “he could be an ass sometimes, but he’s polite to strangers” — is that he’s never really told you that he lives with Yoongi.
Jin, bless his heart, who had no reason to ever assume that you know Yoongi in the first place, was right to leave you momentarily in the presence of his friend who’s just as confused to see you sitting on his stool in the counter.
“We’ve got to stop meeting like this,” he mutters, the supposed playful thrum of his voice sounding far too real towards the end.
Yoongi’s not even dressed for class or work by the looks of it. Instead, he looks every bit the other paying half of the dorm you’re in. From his ginger hair that’s toned down and a little longer than the last time you saw him (read: it’s much longer judging by his roots, but you can’t even think about that right now), all the way to how his sleep shirt features the silhouette of an actor for a superhero that’s long been cancelled before, you have no doubt that it’s your mom’s best friend’s son staring you down.
“Yoongi,” you smile, voice a little breathless despite having done nothing at all prior to seeing him in the flesh. “Why are you here?” you ask, the lump in your throat making it impossibly discreet that you’ve long connected the dots even before you could utter a response to him.
“I live here,” he snorts, running a hand through his hair in an attempt to make himself look a little more presentable (but not that he cares or anything). “Are you here… for me?”
You have no doubt that it’s your ear seeding guy’s roommate who’s making your brain fuzzy.
“I want to say so,” you chuckle, nibbling on your bottom lip. “But I don’t think you do ear seeding like your roommate does.”
“You know that Jin only has three patients right? Me, himself, and I don’t know who the third one is, but he told me that it’s his first client ever.”
“That would be me.”
“Oh,” Yoongi deadpans, narrowing his eyes. “You know he’s not certified, right?”
“I know,” you nod, trailing off as you look down at the floor to try and not to look like an utter fool in front of Yoongi who looks way too lax about your unexpected meeting. “And he doesn’t even charge that much for someone who can’t legally do this, but am I crazy?” you murmur, fading into a whisper as Yoongi stalks towards you on the counter, working around your figure as he fishes for the orange juice. “Am I crazy for feeling that Jin… makes it work?”
“I’ve been in denial about it for as long as I could, if that helps,” Yoongi whispers back, surprisingly not weirded out with the way your voice had dropped as he gives you your own glass wordlessly. “I pay him to do it, but I don’t want it to get into his head that he might actually be onto something.”
“Right? I think it’s a-…”
“What are we whispering about?”
Jin comes out of nowhere and you practically jump out of your skin at his interruption, your ass just seconds away from dropping to the floor if not for the very glaring realization that Yoongi’s here; that your body’s split-second response could possibly dictate your entire future with Yoongi, and that your embarrassment would seal the horrid fate of both your threads.
“You guys know each other or something?”
“Sort of,” Yoongi answers for the both of you, looking at you with his eyes thinking out loud as he ignores Jin’s muttering of why he wasn’t poured a glass of orange juice. “Y/N’s my… mom’s best friend’s daughter.”
“Yeah,” you affirm, testing the words on your tongue. “And Yoongi’s… my friend?”
He only shrugs.
“That works too.”
It could and it would work for you, because the way Yoongi lingers around you as Jin works on your ears gives you a different type of constipation that not one cold, tiny bead could fix.
It should work for you, because you’ve never been this ecstatic over incidental connections in your lifetime; not when you learned that you can get 20% off your breakfast muffin orders from this famous joint in the city because your great-grandpa was the first cashier for it maybe a hundred years ago (you do not have a grasp on time past your parents’ ages), nor when you found out that the librarian is the stepmom of the kid you used to babysit and she’d let you bring home anything you want.
“Stop talking to Y/N, Yoongi,” Jin grumbles at some point, exhaling more pointedly than usual when he doesn’t get to stick the bead at the exact pressure point that he needed to. “Her ears are too warm right now.”
“No, they’re not,” you immediately retort, the sharp flit of your gaze to him making him mockingly curl his upper lip at you, rolling his eyes at your denial.
It must work for you, because even Jin, your ear seeding guy, could tell that whatever crush or admiration you have for Yoongi would be devastating — it’d be only endearing, if and only if, it was requited.
Yoongi texts you sometime in the evening, a few too many hours later after you left his apartment. You weren’t necessarily expecting for him to holler at you by the doorframe, asking you to give him a call to let him know you made it back safe; Yoongi didn’t require that of you, and it should be okay.
You’re only friends.
You’re only a friend who unknowingly drank from his favorite, always-washed-and-dried mug, and he’s only a friend who had texted you at 8 in the evening with a picture of Miso on his mom’s lap
one time i woke up with two less beads on my ear and i never questioned it
You’re only a friend who rapid-fire texts your dad for a picture of Veggie just to immediately reply to Yoongi, even if said image you receive is a live photo of her snoring with the flash going off on her snout.
there would be No Answers either :D

Yoongi’s your little brother’s dentist’s godson.
In an attempt at self-preservation (read: working a job wherein he doesn’t feel the need to brawl when faced with a customer with a phone whipped out), Yoongi finally relents to trying one of his connections over the break.
It’s fairly easy, really. He doesn’t have to spend his day looking down on other people’s mouths nor hold the suction for the dentist on duty or anything at all; Yoongi’s not exactly making bank, but all he has to do is be a pretty face in the reception area, schedule appointments here and there, type out a few Excel sheets, and his godmother swears that’s it.
You only wish those were the actual things in his job description, because as soon as you walk in through the double doors, you convince yourself through hell and back that Yoongi’s here for every other reason besides working his summer job.
You wait for the other shoe to drop, for him to telepathically communicate to you (without even making eye contact), that he’s been significantly older than you all this time and that he has a DMD degree and he’s only been humoring you during all your previous interactions, and all the aforementioned is a nudge to letting you down slowly.
You wait for it to hit you that perhaps it’s not really Yoongi-Yoongi whose side profile is facing you, but instead some random guy that has one of those faces, while your little brother waits for you to resume functioning again.
He’s dressed in scrubs, but Yoongi has one of those faces which you could tell have never worn scrubs before. It doesn’t look natural in his frame with the way he looks too foreign and polished in them, almost as if he’s never even stretched upward to pick up something from a cupboard or twisted his arms laterally to get rid of the aches in them.
Yoongi looks like he doesn’t belong in the dentist’s office thirty minutes away from your childhood home, until he blurts out your name in equal confusion.
"Y/N?" he tilts his head, the unsure tone that coats his words making you snap into attention, walking towards him with a renewed purpose in your steps. “What are you... doing here?"
"I'm here to hold his hand," you answer as if it’s the most obvious thing in the world, waving your occupied hand proudly (when just awhile ago you were complaining how clammy your brother’s hand was) with a hesitant smile. "What are you doing here?"
Yoongi’s lips part in astonishment, almost as if he didn’t count on you returning the question to him. He loosely points to the framed picture of the dentist behind him, the chuckle that leaves him making you nod eagerly even before the words could leave him, making it painfully obvious that you already connected the dots to some sort of degree, but you still want to hear him speak nonetheless.
"She's uh, she's my godmom and I'm putting in some hours.”
"Are you getting paid?" you blurt out, eyes later widening when it registers to you that your desperation to keep your conversation going knows no bounds as long as it involves Yoongi, making you swallow your own shame with a cough. “Sorry. I'm just a little nosy.”
Yoongi clears his throat at that, pursing his lips in genuine thought at the (valid) question. ”Uhm, not exactly, I think? I get handed money at the end of the day but really, it's not-..."
You wanted nothing more than to retract your question even before Yoongi could muster finishing his train of thought.
You wanted nothing more than the ground to swallow you whole when Yoongi can’t even finish answering your question, to which you already seemingly crossed a line with, because he’s preoccupied.
Yoongi’s not preoccupied with the way your brother’s started drifting away from you, even with his hand still clasped to yours, except this time he’s treading closer to the reception desk where he stands in, body language glaringly evident that if you were to even loosen your hold on him for a split second, he’ll hide behind Yoongi’s feet to avoid getting his routine cleaning.
He’s not distracted either with the way you keep blinking up at him as if you were communicating your admiration for him in Morse code, nor with the way your lips are still parted with the next awaiting conversation greaser if he were to stall.
Yoongi does stall, not because of you, but because of the woman that strolls into the clinic and past him, her manicured hand grazing past his midsection in the process.
"Hi, Yoongs.”
"Hey, Jisun,” Yoongi immediately replies with a sheepish smile, his hand buffering by his side to return the touch with a gentle pat as his eyes follow her, the flustered lump on his throat making him cough sharply.
Oh.
It’s not Yoongi who doesn’t belong here — it’s you.
"It's more for the experience, then? Not the pay?" you try to finish his thought for him, your voice on the verge of fading if not for the little drops of self-preservation in your throat that keep you standing upright.
Yoongi doesn’t look embarrassed over you seeing the interaction unfold, and he’s not uneasy either. He just looks sheepish… almost pitiful that you had to see something so unnervingly warm and intimate without even meaning to.
“That's one way to put it."
Without another word, you nod firmly and he takes that as his signal to actually do his job.
Without another glance, you do your job and hold your little brother’s hand throughout his appointment, steeling your nerves every time you hear the door to his room open because it would be pointless to look back. There’s no way it’s Yoongi finding an apt reason to linger near you, and there’s no way either for you to come back for conjuring such an expectation.
Yoongi rings you up with no discounts (he's not sure if he's even allowed to) yet he leans in just enough to ruffle your brother’s hair, gaze fixed on him before it flits to you briefly.
"Good job, buddy. Go pester your sister for some ice cream,” he hums, the almost-customary, dry-humored, and slightly playful goodbye rekindling a little bit of hope in you, enough to make you look up from your shoes without worrying if you have to see Yoongi’s midsection grazed by a hand that isn’t yours, again. ”Say hi to Veggie for me."
You nod tightly in obligation.
"I hope Miso's well."

Yoongi’s sister is the amateur hairdresser who gave you a bad haircut for free in cosmetology school.
For the record, you weren’t searching up Yoongi’s family name and making up a family tree as you went in order to find ways to be closer to him. That wasn’t the case at all.
The only pressing situation you had last night on-hand was that your mind was plagued with the saying that hair apparently holds memories, and after a few barely-passing major exams here and there that hours of doom-scrolling and back-to-back partying couldn’t fix, and you decided then and there that you’d get a haircut first thing in the morning.
Your budget wasn’t that of a pressing issue (it’s no match to the marks on your university portal you could only blankly stare at), but it’s truly up there. You couldn’t afford to go to your usual salon, which although may not be the most expensive salon there is in the city (but they did serve iced drinks in-house so that atleast counts for something), would still set you back a few good meals throughout the next two weeks if you were to book an appointment.
You had no choice but to suck it up. You wanted change and you wanted it quick for a fraction of the usual cost, and that’s why you ended up in the cosmetology school just a few blocks away from your dorm. You only knew five minutes prior to walking there, thanks to a classmate, that they offer services for cheap and that most of the time they end up being actually really good, and you didn’t need to hear any more after that.
In hindsight, however, you should’ve stuck around to hear more.
You should’ve stuck around to hear that getting A+ (maybe even C-) treatment at a cosmetology school is basically entering the lottery, and that you shouldn’t have had a perk in your step walking to there because a higher power, whether it’s up in heaven or just a few blocks away, would mistake it for you being too confident in what you thought you deserved.
You didn’t think too much about the way the woman named Eunji, who happily sat you on her chair with a nervous smile and familiar eyes, kept glancing to the back of your head and to the reference picture on your phone.
You didn’t think too much when she engaged you in conversation and something about the way she laughed made you squint your eyes as you rack your brain on why she both looks and sounds familiar, nor the way your hair kept getting into your eyes as she blowdried you and how she made no move in moving it the last minute.
It’s a little bit funny that the one time you didn’t think too much is the exact moment when you should have, and the whole vignette stops being funny as soon as you turn your head sideways.
The whole bit goes sideways, just like your haircut, when Yoongi walks towards your hairdresser who’s not earned her actual license yet.
"Here you go, princess," he scoffs, handing her a cup of iced coffee. "Had the time of my life explaining your order to the barista in the drive-thru booth."
Yoongi takes off his sunglasses, ready to rip her a new one and detail how he had never been more embarrassed knowing the difference between the concepts (concepts, not actualities) of white chocolate and white mocha somehow, but he suddenly stills.
He knew there was someone sitting on his sister’s chair, and he wasn’t really bothered lecturing her in front of a stranger.
Except you’re not a stranger — you’re you, sat on Eunji’s chair, and you’ve physically never looked this unrecognizable to him.
"Y/N?" Yoongi mutters, unwilling to even wait for your acknowledgement before he snaps his heads towards his sister. “Why's she in your chair?"
"Being supportive," you answer clippedly, only looking at Yoongi’s reflection in the mirror instead of the very real, and very solid him beside you so you wouldn’t have to turn your head and see your haircut in a whole new sense. "Also saving my allowance and I needed to get a trim, so I-I figured... why not go to Eunji?"
Yoongi doesn’t want to beat a horse when it’s down.
He really, really doesn’t want to laugh at you, but with the way you’re blinking at him like you’re held at gunpoint (except the gun is his sister’s shears), he can’t help but put a hand over his mouth.
He’s not laughing, but he is smiling. Yoongi’s thoroughly amused and deeply pitiful for you all at the same time, and he doesn’t know how his smile figures into the scheme of your haircut just yet.
"I could think of a few reasons."
"What do you think?" Eunji cuts in, asking with a nerve-wracking grin on her face with her hands clasped together, the watery gaze she has set on you tugging at your heartstrings in a much different way than when she had tugged at your ends.
"I love it," you answer breathlessly, tears pricking at the corner of your eyes as you try to ignore how much length has been cut off and how the layers she gave you are more of an emotional, haircut-related crashout kind. “Oh my god, I love it so, so, so bad."
Eunji breathes a deep sigh of relief at that, her shoulder sagging before she picks herself up and gives you a hug from behind, dashing off to get her camera from her locker instead of her supervisor.
You love the Min family.
You love their warmth and their constant presence, no matter how incidental or fixed.
You’re trying to love the existing skills of their third-born, however, but you can’t tell if your love is that unconditional for a family that’s always treated you like their own.
"Do you need a hat?" Yoongi asks, his upper lip tucked in between his teeth as he continues to stand behind you. "You look like you need a hat."
"N-no. I really, really..." you hesitate, your exhale far too slow for someone who’s genuine, but far too stable for someone who’s pretending to keep it together. "...love the change."
Yoongi gets a full-body shudder.
"I don't," he quips. "I don't think anyone but Eunji would love it."
"Yoongi.”
It’s simple.
It’s just a simple utterance of his name and yet Yoongi stops cold in his tracks. He reels back the emotion that’s clear on his face, and he lets go of the money he has crumpled in his fists inside his pockets for you to get another haircut at a salon you actually want to go to, because he doesn’t want you to mistake his genuine pity for you as patronization.
You’re on the verge of crying, but Yoongi doesn't wipe your tears. Instead, he just hovers; he’s still there, whether you like it or not, and he could only hope that his striking resemblance to his sister doesn’t further set you off.
"You need a hat," he quietly murmurs, removing his cap from his head and putting it on yours seamlessly. "You don't have to give it back.”
Yoongi leaves it at that, watching you walk out with gas as soon as Eunji finishes taking photos of your hair, before turning his attention to his sister. Her coffee order isn’t the biggest issue they have for the day, instead, it’s her shitty hairdressing skills and how you’re far too kind.
It’s close to midnight, right after you reschedule your ear seeding appointment with Jin for another day because you couldn’t bear seeing anyone with your fuckass haircut (he unfortunately doesn’t know any pressure points that would make your hair grow back longer, and he did research on that after being suspiciously silent when you sent him a picture of your hair), when Yoongi texts you.
He doesn’t talk about The Incident. He doesn’t apologize and go on a rant about how he could’ve reacted better awhile ago.
He just sends a picture of his cat sleeping snugly in a Dutch oven that he got from a blind box and drove to another city for.
sometimes miso throws up orange fur
she is white btw
You reply not a minute later before locking your phone.
good night miso

Yoongi’s your best friend’s best friend other than you.
You’re not one to gatekeep. In fact, you’re the number one hater for every creator who washes up in your feed and suggests for you to go manually type up and search a link or press another button to know the follow-up to the already lengthy, chatty video you already watched.
You know you’re not privy to most things; you’re not even privy to anything at all.
It’s not a conundrum with a tight space for it to be debated upon; it’s just the truth.
The very idea of everyone in the world being connected to each other within six degrees of separation was shaky in itself. If you were asked to, you can’t exactly place the most far-fetched celebrity in the media and trace back the six or less people that would serve as the bridge for you to be acquainted to them.
You believe, both in a pipe dream and the innate hope you harbor, that you can be connected to said celebrity or anyone just as significant (maybe even notorious), yet it’s the semantics of trying to pinpoint your exact link that you can’t be bothered to do so in your free time. You’re in no rush to discern how many degrees separated you are from the mayor of the city, and you’re not jumping at the opportunity to know how many handshakes away you are from the executive producer of your favorite show.
You believe in fortuity. You believe in the hope that contingency promises and how ridiculous your current chances could be. You believe in select customs when they serve you and you put your hands together to ward off what don’t. You take what resonates with you, even if your belief in tomorrow comes from a long line of whatever came before you that you don’t fully believe in or if it spawns from the clench of your chest that you get when you see something scribbled in a brick wall and you decide that it’ll forever echo in your mind.
You’re not privy to the general admiration you have for Yoongi, nor are you privy to all the connections you have with him.
You believe in fortuity and you believe in Yoongi, but the two aren’t always synonymous.
"Yoongi?" you ask, the slip of his name from your mouth appearing out of habit rather than actual disbelief. “What are you doing here?”
He looks like he belongs here. He belongs here as much as you do and as much as you’ve never questioned the specifics, he looks you up and down with a discreetness that doesn’t belong in a party as big as this.
Yoongi makes Jimin’s party feel small to you. He zeroes in on you with a gaze that you can’t begin to dissect because a grunt slips past his lips before you could even explain what you were doing in the same space as him, again.
"What are you doing here?" he purses his lips, exhaling sharply. "Y/N, it's great to see a familiar face and all, but please don't stand so close to me," Yoongi grunts through his teeth as if your proximity to him physically pierces through his clothes and sears his skin. "I'm seeing this new girl and she gets a little bit-..."
"Hey."
Before you could even try to recover from the recoil of stepping away from Yoongi immediately so he could entertain her, before you could even try to nurse the harshness of his words and his gaze that penetrated your belief in him — Yoongi gives you a further light nudge in panic before backtracking, his arm now across your shoulders.
"She's my cousin, baby," Yoongi breathlessly greets, the belated addition of your name never falling to your ears because you choose not to know her; because you’re rendered frozen anyway when you realize that Yoongi introduces you as someone far more personal to him, yet someone even more distant to anyone who could see you. “Say hi, Y/N."
You can’t even be introduced as his friend.
At the back of your mind, you doubt if being introduced as one would even make a difference because the woman before you doesn’t seem the least bit interested nor intimidated at however Yoongi introduces you as.
You weren’t competition to her, nor did it feel like you were viable opposition to practically anyone in Yoongi’s life.
"Hi," you nod curtly, the clench of your jaw doing little to ease the migraine that blooms from the back of your head.
"Pleasure to meet a family member of my boyfriend, finally. He won't take me home for some reason," she jokes, her outstretched hand being taken by yours that’s gone cold, making her raise a brow, yet she takes it in stride anyway.
Anything for Yoongi’s supposed family, it seems.
"What was Yoongi like growing up?"
"Oh. Yeah, we didn't see each other that much growing up," you swallow, the shallowness of your tone making Yoongi’s casual arm around your shoulders falter, the slyness of his gaze on you curving into something unidentifiable. “Every time I see him, I still... learn something new."
Your voice tapers off, and both Yoongi and his girlfriend let you be. She only pushes for a little right after, when Yoongi’s hand is back snug to her waist and her head is pressed to his chest, yet you can’t bring yourself to add to the conversation she so badly wants.
She should know that she has no reason to impress you. She should know that she doesn’t have any reason to be afraid of letting you down, because neither does Yoongi.
Jimin, yours and Yoongi’s best friend, claps.
“I’m back! Got in this long-ass line and-..." he trails off, looking between you and Yoongi and his girlfriend. “Oh? You've met each other then. Great!"
Her eyes only narrow in confusion for a split second, but she lets it be.
Yoongi lets it go, right after he sends a few glances your way and realizes that Jimin’s talking to you animatedly.
You only let go of it when you get home from the party far too early than anyone could account you for.
The grasp you have on fortuity is barely firm, just barely getting by, so much so that you don’t even look at your phone when it vibrates on your nightstand.
jimin’s asking where you are
The grasp you have on Yoongi is barely solid, only enough to hold onto thread instead of cloth, that you don’t reply to his text when you see it in the morning, nor bring up the very fact that it was Jimin himself who hailed a ride for you.
( ♡ )
Yoongi’s a familiar stranger to you.
He’s basically a crow to you, and to him, you remain to be the pesky, overeager, and insanely optimistic human who wants to domesticate him.
He’s a highly-intelligent, unforgetting, vindictive creature. He knows patterns when he sees them but never flukes, not because he thinks he’s too good for them, but because it felt impossible.
To you, the world had never felt smaller when Yoongi first sat next to you at the dining table.
To Yoongi, the world had never felt bigger since he’s first crossed paths with you. It wasn’t the dining table for him. It wasn’t every other interaction that came after — it was everything before.
As soon as his eyes lay on you from across the floor of the reception hall, the warmth that spreads across your chest is everything but welcome. It stings and it burns and it leaves marks in its wake because it’s Yoongi and it’s you and there’s no other explanation.
There’s no other plausible, full-bodied explanation for the way Yoongi hates familiarity, other than the fact that it’s from you.
There’s no salve for his lack of need for you either.
“Are you a fucking stalker?”
“W-what? No!” you stammer, eyebrows drawn together as you try to level with him. “This is pure coincidence. I wasn’t even trying to— all the times before either, I swear! I never intended to bump into you.”
Yoongi rolls his eyes, the scoff that leaves his lips only adding to the uncomfortable warmth that burns your fingertips.
“Say that you’re right. That every interaction, every meeting, every discreet instance of you shooting your shot at me, which by the way is not discreet at all, is just pure coincidence— do you think I’m happy about it?”
You want to correct him.
You want to point out every thread between you that’s there yet you never pulled on. You want to write his name on a piece of blank paper and map out with yarn all the degrees you’re separated from him, and yet you don’t. You can’t focus on anything with regards to proving yourself right and him wrong when all you can zero in on is the little amount of self-preservation you have left.
“But you don’t hate me, Yoongi,” you murmur, shaking your head earnestly. “You said it yourself. Y-you said it’s nice to see me and-…”
“I said that in the past but I don’t mean it now! Yes, you’re familiar, and that benefits me when I get put into situations and all I happen to know is you,” he snaps, throwing his head back. “I don’t mean it now. It’s not very nice to see you when everyone, including the girl I actually like, just assumes that we’re together because you kept looking at me!”
“B-but I don’t-…. I-I don’t do so well in new-…” the words die in your throat, the gentle yet firm tug he has on your wrist making you freeze in its inescapable warmth. It should be familiar. Yoongi should be familiar, but he feels everything besides that. “But you’re the only one I know.”
“Here. I’ll introduce you to someone and then you can hang onto him.”
Yoongi wordlessly takes you across the hall, delivering you like you’re some misplaced package that ended up on his porch. He doesn’t even look back at you despite his hand being wrapped around your wrist, whereas all you can do is burn holes at the back of his head with your gaze, ignoring the curious onlooking to your predicament as you swallow the lump in your throat.
“Hey, Jungkook,” Yoongi makes his presence known as soon as he sees the familiar mop of hair within his eyeline, his holler effectively taking said guy’s attention.
“Oh, hey-…”
Yoongi, without sparing a second glance to you, nudges you gently to him.
“This is Y/N. Someone I know. Can you watch over her for a second?”
Jungkook, the guy you’ve known for a total of two seconds, hesitantly receives you with a pat to your arm, letting his hand linger there as the both of you look at the back of Yoongi’s retreating figure.
“…okay?”
Just two seconds ago, Jungkook was in a heated one-on-one with his friend Hoseok if it was ethical for one to let their hypothetical girlfriend’s hypothetical close friend sit in the front seat, if said hypothetical girlfriend was drunk and wanted to lay in the backseat (Jungkook’s on team not let close friend sit shotgun) — now, he’s in a silent one-on-one with you.
It’s silent, of course, until you sniffle.
“Oh my god, are you alright?” Jungkook panickedly asks, fishing out a handkerchief from his pocket. “Do the tears have to do something with how weird Yoongi was two seconds ago?”
“Yeah.”
“I figured,” Jungkook, someone you’ve known for less than five minutes, rubs comforting circles on your back.
You don’t mind.
“I’m sorry. I drank from this awhile ago but I swear I didn’t spit on it or anything,” he frowns, his hand outstretched invitingly enough for you to interpret it as friendly, but distant enough for you to have the chance to be wary. “Or do you hate drinking from a stranger’s water bottle that’s already open?”
“It hasn’t happened before, but I don’t think I’ll hate-hate it,” you mumble through broken sniffles, turning your head briefly, partly to wipe away your tears, but mostly to not look like a complete idiot. “Also, you’re not a stranger.”
“Right! I’m Jungkook again, by the way. I don’t think Yoongi even said my name properly because of how fast he was dying to get out of here,” Jungkook laughs, the sincerity flowing out of him being easy. Uncomplicated.
You drift to your default silence, nursing your cries to yourself while trying not to make a sound, but it’s proven difficult when you see two large hands underneath your downturned head: one holding the water bottle, and the other cupped underneath it.
Jungkook thinks your questioning gaze is directed to the way his hands are positioned instead of his default kindness for you, and just maybe everyone else he’s ever encountered.
“Because your hands are shaking.”
He lifts the bottle to your lips, being extra careful in tilting it and having his hand tuck right under your chin to ensure that not a single speck of water would drop to the elegant dress you’re wearing (that you’ve only borrowed, unlike his assumption that you just have the number lying around).
Jungkook sheepishly excuses himself right after you tap him on the forearm to let you know you’ve had your fill, the snort that leaves his lips almost disturbing his methodical pouring of the remaining water to the bottle cap.
“Sorry. I’m a little bit thirsty myself.”
“You could just drink from your own bottle,” you find yourself genuinely laughing the first time into the night, shrugging playfully. “Just a thought.”
“But I don’t want you to think I’m a weirdo for drinking from my bottle deliberately after you drank from it,” Jungkook frowns.
“Of course,” you nod eagerly, gesturing to the live image of a man as structured as him taking tiny little sips from an even tinier bottle cap. “This isn’t any weirder at all.”
“Thank you, pretty girl,” Jungkook bows in the most regal way he could, the grin that graces his face easing the weight that Yoongi had left on your chest. “Not bad for a first impression, hm?”
.
.
.
Yoongi has a habit of mumbling.
Jimin has a habit of eavesdropping, especially when it’s Yoongi mumbling angrily to himself.
“Well that’s fucking weird.”
“What?” Jimin clarifies, furrowing his brows at the annoyance that’s plastered clearly on his friend’s face.
Yoongi doesn’t explain. He just barks at him, arms crossed on his chest as he exhales slowly.
“Go bring Y/N a bottle of water. Don’t tell her it’s from me.”
“A please would be nice,” Jimin mutters. “And no? Give it to her yourself.”
“She’s your best friend.”
“She’s your friend too.”
“She’s not,” Yoongi corrects him, the adjustment falling short because Jimin doesn’t even flinch at the attempt.
It’s pure, utter bullshit. It’s a propaganda that he won’t fall for and it’s a movement that even Yoongi himself isn’t truly invested in.
“She’s not?” Jimin echoes. “The girl who hates driving in the dark and in the rain, who drove you to the airport in spite of all that because my car was in the shop last week, is not your friend?”
Yoongi’s breath hitches at the reminder.
His heart buckles at the way he didn’t even know you were scared until now, because you only talked to him that day like normal. Like nothing bothered you.
Like warm, as always.
Like you.
( ♡ )
Yoongi’s not intentionally seeking punishment.
Frankly speaking, he doesn’t even know exactly what’s he’s asking from you. He doesn’t know if there’s a word for the hollow, all-consuming guilt that’s planted in his chest and grows roots in the pit of his stomach and blooms in the back of his skull.
If Yoongi were to hear his own words repeated back to him, with even just a fraction of the amount of vitriol and misplaced frustration, he would’ve called it then and there. He would’ve hurt himself and ran for the hills right after to recuperate because there’s no amount of distance that would ever stop the echoes of his own tirade.
You weren’t Yoongi, however, and he’s never hated that fact more.
It’s beyond good, maybe even immaculate that you weren’t him, because you were far too better. Far too warm and too good, because even though Yoongi doesn’t seek punishment from his own hands, you wouldn’t deal him the same deck of cards if he were to explicitly ask you.
“I’m so sorry, Y/N. You didn’t— fuck — you didn’t deserve that at all and I’ve never been more stupid,” he apologized through the bedroom door of your childhood home. It was his parents’ monthly catch-up with your own and although the invite wasn’t really open for everyone (not one child from either families came with whenever it was this time of the month), Yoongi jumped at the opportunity to come over. You were still warm, although not for him, but not one second passed wherein you took out your anger for him to his parents who didn’t know any better.
“I didn’t mean any of it. I-I was angry, and I was frustrated, and I didn’t know how to juggle everything — but I’m not making excuses! I’m being honest, and the truth was that I was an asshole and I took it out on you,” Yoongi had apologized to you in his dorm when it was time for your session with Jin. You didn’t work your way around him to change your routines; you stayed rooted and despite being overwhelmed with guilt and the need to make himself better, it’s Yoongi who bended backwards by not fleeing at all. You didn’t take it out on Jin, and you didn’t even take it out on the apparently lucky succulent that Yoongi had slipped to your hands during one of your sessions.
“You can push me away. Please. Y-you can cuss me out and everything, and I know I’m asking for forgiveness and you can keep saying no, but I-I’m not doing this to absolve myself, y’know? I just don’t want you to have my… my own words linger in your mind,” Yoongi pleaded to you during your little brother’s return appointment at the dentist. It wasn’t even summer. He’s not even working for his godmother anymore, and yet Yoongi still came into the date he booked your sibling for. You didn’t give him attitude; you didn’t take it out on him in public.
What Yoongi seeks from you is indiscernable. It’s neither penance or punishment. It’s not forgiveness or absolution.
The only absolute thing that Yoongi knows he wants from you, even if it’s within his lowly means and that equates to being beneath you, is something akin to familiarity.
It hurts to see you there but not for him. It aches to see you everywhere and digest that the only times your gaze would land on him is when he makes himself painfully known for your anger and frustration to snag on, anything, really, just to be reminded that you know him enough— even if it’s just barely to get by — to be annoyed over.
You’re everywhere and Yoongi doesn’t complain, even if every single bone in his body is just yearning for the warmth that he took for granted when your shoulders would touch and your knees would brush and your eyes would meet.
Yoongi’s being burnt alive from your frigid avoidance towards him, even if you’re practically everywhere he goes, but he doesn’t flee.
He’s not avoiding you. He’s taking the hurt and he keeps taking it, because although it’s not punishment enough, it’s close enough to warmth.
It’s close enough to familiarity, even as he pulls desperately at all the threads that bind the two of you close but never together — because it had only been him who had delayed the latter from happening.
“I’m not making excuses. I-I’m being honest and it’s ugly in hindsight, but it’s the truth,” Yoongi whispers, gnawing on his bottom lip as he stands outside of your dorm with no buffer this time; no other connection, no other degree of separation. “I-I wanted to be connected to you in every single way without— w-without anyone else bridging the way for me.”
“That’s stupid,” you mutter.
“I.. know. God, Y/N. You don’t know how much I think of you and all these stupid, fucking ways I want to be your guy for everything,” Yoongi throws his head back, running a hand through his face as he tries to regain his footing. “I-I want to be the guy who fills up your wiper fluid and double checks if you’re being ripped off at the shop because you’re too pretty. It’s stupid, and I know that, but I thought you’d have the tendency to be like your mom a-and be infatuated with wallpapers one day, and I want to be the guy who talks you down from sticking them to the granite your apartment came with-…”
“You sound like an idiot, Yoongi.”
“It’s idiotic. It’s so, so stupid. I want to be your bootleg designer sunglasses guy. I-I want to know how to cut your cuticles and touch up your layers. God, I even have handwritten notes on how I could be the most annoying, present being in your life and-…”
You slap Yoongi very, very lightly.
It’s practically just a tap on his cheek that wouldn’t even be enough to spook a bug off your arm, but it’s you. It’s you and your touch and your warmth and Yoongi literally jolts with electricity, the words stopping right at the tip of his tongue as you stare him down.
“That’s stupid, Yoongi.”
“I know. It’s so stupid,” he shakily affirms, cheeks impossibly warm at your touch. At your proximity, even if your chest is far from touching his own and even if your hand that was on his cheek is now back on your side. “It’s stupid that I kept pulling down the collar of my shirt when I first sent you that picture of Miso, a-and how I’m a grown man but hid behind my literal cat every time I felt that it was getting too real and I-I couldn’t keep up.”
Yoongi didn’t always believe in connections, and you have no doubt about it.
You have no doubt about Yoongi’s stupidly honest and sincere outpouring either.
“Stupidest thing I know,” you affirm with a whisper, nodding your head tightly.
Yoongi didn’t always believe in fortuity.
He didn’t believe in yearning and contingency until it dawned into his thick, stubborn skull that what— who — he wanted most is you.
“I want you in all the ways I already know you,” Yoongi relents, not out of surrender, but out of admission. Out of sincere, full-bodied truth. “I don’t want to stop, sweetheart. I don’t wanna stop thinking and being all the ways I could ever be connected to you.”

You wake up with the sun, like you do nearly everyday unless you get the rare lie in. It’s the first day of volunteering, first day of summer for real, and it’s already warm on your cheeks when you stretch under your daisy, print blanket. u wiggle your toes. You roll around a little. You don’t even get out of bed right away. just lay there all comfy and sweet like ur a lazy lil housecat while the roosters scream outside.
Homeschool’s finally done. You’re free. no more worksheets on the kitchen table, no more weird unit studies your mama printed off Facebook about history . You passed everything (..barely), so you’re done till fall. And starting today, you’ve got one plan and one plan only, spend your summer up at your uncle’s barn, brushing the ponies, collecting duck eggs, and teaching new volunteers not to be afraid of cow shit.
You’ve done this every year since you were twelve. It’s your favorite part of the whole year.
You hop outta bed, take your quick shower, brush your teeth with strawberry toothpaste, and do that thing where you dab your lip balm on your cheeks like blush. Then you tug on your denim shorts, your frilliest little summer blouse, and your boots that still has last year’s mud on the soles.
Your mom’s already in the kitchen when you get there.
“Morning, baby,” she says, flipping pancakes.
“Morning.” She hands you your plate and you plop right down at the table. You eat fast cuz you’re too excited not to.
“You packed a lunch?” she asks.
“Mmhmm.”
“Kissed the Lord today?”
“Twice.”
She smiles. “Once for me too?”
“Of course.”
It’s just you and her in this house. Always has been, judt a little one story farmhouse with faded curtains and a front porch that creaks. No brothers, no sisters. Just you, your mama, and a dumb cat Pickle (Who’s a stray that chose your porch to be it’s home)
And every summer, your uncle, lets you come work up at his barn andhis produce shop just up the hill. He brings in other volunteers too, kids from nearby counties or from down the highway, but they don’t usually last long. Most people don’t like early mornings and goat spit as much as you do.
You finish your breakfast, rinse your plate, and lean your chin on your hand while Mama sips her coffee.
“Hey, Mama?”
“Yeah, baby?”
“…What do you think city boys wear?”
She doesn’t even look up. “Trouble.”
You snort. “No, seriously.”
“I am bein’ serious.” She points her fork at you. “Cities are full of smog, strangers, expensive juice drinks, and people who don’t say bless you when you sneeze.”
You twirl your spoon through your empty syrup. “But they’ve got trains. And bubble tea. And boys who wear silver rings on their fingers and probably vape.”
She gives you a look. “Thats not like a reason to go packin’ your suitcase.”
“I’m just asking.. What’s it like to kiss someone who wears cologne and not… tractor grease.”
Mama sighs, like you’re already giving her a headache. “You got all summer to get that silly out of your system.”
You grin. “Good thing today’s the first day.”
She rolls her eyes but kisses your forehead anyway. you grab your bag, tighten your boots, and shout goodbye over your shoulder as you head outside.
It’s warm already. The air smells like honeysuckle and cow. Sun’s hitting your arms just right.
You cross the road and start up the hill toward the barn, same way you always do. You can already see the roof of the tool shed poking out over the trees. The goats are bleating, the horses are whinnying, and your whole body is already buzzing with the joy of it.
You’ve done this a million times before.
And you’ve never once had a bad summer.
Which is why it doesn’t even cross your mind, why there’s not a single shred of warning in your cute little head, that something’s about to change.
Something big.
Because while you’re walking to the barn with a little song on your lips and a whole day of chores in your heart…
The city?
It’s already on its way.
And it’s wearing black boots and a pierced eyebrow.
God help you.
When you arrive, the volunteers are already huddled near the tool shed. three of them today.
And you glance over the group: a sleepy looking’ boy with cuffed jeans and allergies, a girl who’s definitely wearing lashes to the stables, and one girl who already has hay in her mouth for some reason. like. just chewing it.
“Morning’, guys!!” you chirp, all sunshine and friendliness. They blink at you like you’re a hallucination.
“I’m y/n ,” you say. “and if you hate it here, that’s okay. most of you do. but i love it, and i’m real nice, so if you need anythin’ or just wanna cry behind the grain barrels later, come find me.”
The hay girl giggles nervously.
“Were starting easy today,” you say, checking your clipboard. “Stall cleaning and pony grooming. if you scream at the ducks, they will bite you. don’t ask how i know that. i just do.”
They all nod slowly. terrified.
You clap your hands and smile so big your cheeks hurt. and that’s how your summer begins. just like always. you, your boots, your clipboard, and three new souls about to get emotionally wrecked by chickens and sunstroke.
You have no idea that one more volunteer is about to arrive.
Late, pissed off, pierced, and literally allergic to peace.
And speaking of, Jeon Jungkook? Is suffering.
He doesn’t even pause his music when he gets yelled at. just keeps staring straight ahead, one leg propped up on the dash, mouth full of gum, blasting music so loud through his airpods the whole car sounds like a speaker.
His dad’s been talking for the last ten minutes, but he’s too busy playing level 179 of bubble pop on his phone.
and mentally preparing for war. because apparently, after the party. and the party after the party. and the one that accidentally caught the coffee table on fire, his parents are finally “done.”
and their solution isn’t therapy. or rehab. or juvie.
no.
it’s community volunteering.
in the countryside.
(For “character building.” Jungkook thinks jail would’ve been more fun.)
He blows a bubble, pops it loud.
This is fucking ridiculous.
His name is jeon jungkook. he wears black-on-black in 90 degree weather. he owns a Dior saddlebag and two vapes. he knows his drug dealer’s grandma.
He is not meant for dirt roads and animals and old men with hay in their beards.
“Youre gonna take this seriously,” his dad snaps, finally pulling off the gravel road and throwing the car into park. he still doesn’t pause his music. “you’ll be living here all summer, find somewhere, i know there’s a little hostel nearby for all i care, you better not mess this up.”
Jungkook sighs. loud and long. but finally yanks an airpod out. “can’t believe you’re dropping me off at fuckin horse camp.”
“Its not horse camp.”
“Itys giving horse camp.”
“Its called a farm,” his dad snaps. “get out.”
He slams the car door harder than necessary, cargo pants dragging dust with every step. his hoodie’s already sticking to his back and he’s starting to sweat, but he refuses to show it.
And hes still mid eye roll when his dad steps out and pulls him into a hug. and he does hug back. quick, one armed, all bratty. but then his dad’s voice gets low. serious.
“I hope something changes this summer.”
Jungkook doesn’t answer. just nods once. chin sharp. mouth tight. and then he steps back.
“Later,” he mumbles, pulling his airpods in again.
He doesn’t turn around until the car’s already disappeared down the road. and that’s when it hits him. like. actually hits him.
Theres no cars. no concrete. no skyline. just trees. and fences. and a big ass barn in front of him. he’s alone.
Fully alone. in the middle of nowhere.
With a backpack, a vape, and a hoodie he can’t take off out of spite. he exhales through his nose.
“fuck.”
He walks toward the barn, footsteps heavy. everything smells like grass and sun and… something too fresh.
And then, he sees you. He stops walking. just for a second. you’re standing out front, brushing a small, white pony with a giant pink ribbon in its tail. your shorts are faded and frayed. your top’s tied in a little knot at your waist. your arms are tan and a little muscly.
And you’re smiling so big you look like a fucking cartoon. and then you spot him. you light up more. drop the brush in the grass and run toward him, boots kicking up dust.
He stares.
you’re not like the other city girls he’s used to. not covered in makeup. not taking selfies. not eyeing him like you’re trying to put him in a song.
You’re just… smiling. squinting into the sun.
Barefaced and pretty and weirdly ripped. Your so close now he can smell your shampoo. “you need help?” you ask, already grinning.
His jaw tics.
“Volunteer,” he says.
“Oh! yayyy!!” you gasp, practically bouncing. “come on in, we don’t get many! you’re gonna love it. well, maybe. okay, probably not at first. but it grows on you!”
He blinks. you’re… talking so fast.
You tilt your head. “what’s your name?”
“…Jungkook.”
“i’m y/n!” you chirp. “hi hi hi.”
You don’t even give him time to respond. you just grab his sleeve and start dragging him inside. he swears under his breath.
tries not to look at your ass.
fails immediately.
“Uncle!! we got another one!!”
A man with a clipboard turns around. he’s got a straw hat and a gray beard and one of those terrifying polite smiles that scream i can break a man’s spine and then go eat a biscuit.
“You’re late,” the man says.
Jungkook shrugs. “was on my way. got lost.”
“You’re dressed wrong.”
He glances down at his black hoodie and cargo pants.
“…it’s called fashion,” he mutters.
The man raises a brow. doesn’t say anything. writes something on his clipboard. “you’ll be brushing ponies today. you’re with her.”
He looks over.
And you’re already waving at him from where the white pony’s tied up again.
His jaw flexes. his hoodie’s sticking. his hair’s getting damp under the beanie he forgot he was even wearing.
And your shorts are barely hanging on.
He sighs.
You swear youve never seen anyone look more out of place in their body. he’s standing there stiff, arms crossed over his chest, hoodie still clinging to his back even though he’s visibly sweating. and glaring.
Just full…on. glare mode. at the pony.
She sneezes and he flinches.
You bite a laugh back, grabbing a brush from the wall and skipping over.
“This is snowball,” you say sweetly, giving her a little pat. “she’s the gentlest one we got. you’re lucky you’re with her today.”
He raises a brow. “she sneezed on me.”
“Bless her heart, she likes you.”
“I don’t think she does.”
you beam. “you just gotta show her you’re nice.”
“Im not nice.”
“Well, duh. you’re from the city.”
He lets out a noise, somewhere between a scoff and a laugh, but doesn’t argue. just watches you as you press the brush to snowball’s side and demonstrate, smooth and steady strokes.
“See?” you hum. “easy. they like it when you go slow. feels like a massage.”
He shifts a little, eyes tracking your hand, and you swear he licks his lip.
But then he looks away again.
“What if she kicks me?” he mutters.
You blink. “you’re brushing her shoulder.”
“Im just saying. these things are like living tanks.”
“Ponies?”
“All horses are shady.”
You giggle. “she’s not a horse. she’s a pony.”
“Same shit.”
“Nooo,” you gasp. “that’s like saying you’re a decent human just ‘cause you have a neck.”
He looks at you for that one. full-on looks. eyes dark and kind of amazed, like did this dusty little farm girl just say that to me?
You grin wider. “c’mon. here.”
You grab his hand, hot, firm, rougher than you expect, and place the brush in his palm. you stand behind him, reach around, fingers curling over his, guiding him in the rhythm.
“See? just like this.”
His shoulder’s tense under yours. he’s tall. you’re pressing against his side, arms around him, and he smells like deodorant and dust and, god, he is hot.
Not like the guys around here. not in a ‘jacob at the feed store with the four wheeler and no game’ kind of way.
This guy’s got tattoos peeking out from his sleeve. rings on every finger. a lip ring. his jaw is razor sharp and he knows it. he’s hot and he’s rude and probably smokes menthols and has no idea how to hold a brush. you try to focus. on the pony. on the movement. on your job.
You don’t even realize your boobs are right next to his elbow until you lean forward a little, trying to steer his hand lower, and one of them jiggles against his arm.
And he freezes like a statue. like a man who just witnessed god and can’t tell anyone about it.
You go still too. blink. look up. his lips part. just slightly. then he jerks away. like you burned him.
“..i got it,” he mutters, stepping aside, starting to brush snowball with way too much force. “i got it now.”
“You sure?” you ask, trying not to laugh.
“Yeah.”
He’s brushing like he’s trying to win an olympic medal. You rest your hands on your hips. “gonna rip her fur off at this rate.”
“She likes it rough,” he deadpans.
You gasp. “excuse me??”
He smirks. actually smirks. just a little. and you already thought it before but hes hot.
like. real hot.
But he’s still a city boy. and city boys always get bored. always want fast things. shiny things. women who look like instagram filters and never have hay in their hair.
He won’t last more than a week.
But until then, “you missed a spot,” you chirp, pointing to snowball’s back.
He groans.
“Show me again.”
You sidle up next to him, brush in hand.
“Okay, but no funny business.” he holds up his hands.
“Swear. all business. brushing ponies and being judged.”
You giggle, heart light.
“You missed another spot,” you tease, nodding toward Snowball’s tail.
Jungkook doesn’t even look. “She can deal.”
You let out a soft little huff through your nose, grabbing your own brush again and working gently along the pony’s belly. The sun’s climbing high now, hot and golden, and his hoodie’s still clinging to him like it’s glued on. Sweat darkens the neckline. He looks miserable.
“You know,” you hum, “you’re allowed to take that thing off.”
He shrugs. “It’s part of the look.”
“What’s the look? heatstroke?”
“No,” he mutters, brushing aggressively. “Urban decay.”
You laugh. Loud and sudden. “That’s not a look, that’s a violation.”
He almost smiles. Almost. Instead, he slows his brush. Eyes flick toward the barn.
“Anyone else here?”
You blink. “Yeah. Three of ‘em. Over in the east stall, probably shoveling horse shit right about now.”
He nods once. Doesn’t say anything else. You wait. Maybe he’ll ask you to come with him. Maybe he’ll ask another one of his too cool for this questions. Maybe he’ll try to flirt again, in that weird standoffish way.
But instead.. He just… walks off.
You blink, stunned. “Wait—hey! You forgot the—” He turns around, still walking backward now, the dumbest little half-smirk on his mouth. His lip ring glints in the light.
“I got it,” he calls. And then he’s gone. Just like that. Hoodie and boots and attitude disappearing around the corner.
You stare after him. Brush limp in your hand. The pony sneezes again and you mutter, “Men,” like it’s the most evil word in the dictionary.
He finds the other volunteers exactly where you said they’d be, clustered near the east stalls, looking like they’ve never seen a bale of hay in their lives.
Jungkook exhales, wipes a palm down the front of his cargo pants, and strolls in like he didn’t just flee from a girl with sparkles in her laugh and arms like she’d punch God for fun.
He doesn’t say anything. Doesn’t ask for names. Just leans up against the doorframe and watches.
The girl with the lashes notices him first.
She perks up immediately, flipping her hair and biting her glossed lip like it’s instinct. “Ohhh,” she says, smile sticky sweet. “New boy.”
He raises a brow. “Yep,” he mutters.
She laughs like that’s the funniest shit she’s ever heard. “I could tell. You got sent here?”
He smirks. “Yeah.”
“Me too.”
She steps closer. And he lets her. She smells like fake peaches and something expensive. Her nails are done, her boots are clean, and her eyes are trained right on his mouth.
This? This is familiar. This is easy. This is girls at parties, in bathrooms, in Uber rides home. They start talking. Nothing real. Nothing worth remembering.
She laughs again, tosses her hair. Touches his arm once. But weirdly… it doesn’t hit.
She’s his type. His vibe. His rhythm.
But there’s no static. No punch in thechest.
Not like when you smiled. Not like when you leaned in close with hay in your hair and sun on your cheek and smelled like strawberries and saddle soap.
He catches himself zoning out. Jaw tight. The girl’s still talking. He nods, polite enough, lets her think he’s interested.
But his eyes drift. Back toward the barn door.
And his chest pulls just a little.
Like something might be calling him.
Or worse. Like someone already did.
And later, after everything’s done, after the clipboard’s been filled out and the volunteers have been sent off with bug bites and hay in their hair,
After you wave goodbye with one hand and cradle a duckling in the other, after he pretends not to look at you even though you’re laughing at something that allergic boy said and the sound actually makes his brain stutter.
Jungkook finds the place his dad mentioned.
It’s not even a real hostel. More like a weird little shared bunkhouse on the back end of the farm’s property, probably built in the eighties and last cleaned in the nineties.
There’s bunk beds. A mini fridge. A broken fan. And someone’s leftover towel draped across the windowsill like it lives there.
He exhales slowly through his nose. Drops his bag. Doesn’t even bother to unpack.
He meets Lash Girl, what’s her face??? he still hasn’t learned her name , on the front step a few hours later. She’s wearing a crop top now, less lashes but more gloss. She hands him a beer she stole like they’re old friends. Like this is what people do in the middle of nowhere. Get bored. Get buzzed. Get off.
She leans in too close. Her laugh is syrupy. Her hand slips low on his arm.
He lets her.
They kiss in the hallway. She tastes like peach rings and cheap beer. She’s soft. She sighs when he touches her. He pushes her gently against the wall, lets his hands slide up under her shirt, listens to her breath hitch like it means something.
It doesn’t.
He doesn’t even think about her.
He’s somewhere else.
Not mentally, like oh I’m so deep and broken.
Just literally .. somewhere else. Floating and disconnected. Her lip gloss smears across his cheek. She pulls him toward one of the bunks, giggling when he bumps his head on the way in. He mutters a curse, shrugs off his hoodie, doesn’t even take his rings off.
She gasps like it’s a revelation. Moans a little too loud when he bites her shoulder.
And the whole time , not once does he stop to think:
wow, she’s hot.
wow, I like her.
wow, this means something.
because it doesn’t. it’s not sex, not really. its entertainment.
And when it’s over, sweaty, sticky, fast , she rolls over with a breathless little giggle, nails dragging down his chest like she wants round two, and he just stares at the ceiling.
Blank.
“God,” she says, “what are they feeding you in the city?”
He doesn’t answer. Just breathes slow. Arms behind his head. Outside, the bugs chirp. The fan creaks. And somewhere down the hill, he knows you’re probably still awake. Reading something on the porch. Braiding your hair. Smelling like warm sugar and horse shampoo.
Not giggling. Not performing. Not needing to be anything other than soft and sunny and stubborn as hell.
He swallows and closes his eyes. And prays to whatever’s left of him that he’s not about to fall for someone who says things like “tractor grease” and talks to ponies like they’re people.
Because that? That would be worse than exile.
That would be real. And real is the one thing he’s never actually had to deal with.

ZERO
The sound of some garbage eating rodent is the first thing you hear after kicking your apartment door open with the tip of your boot. Muscle memory brings your hand to the light switch, but you aren’t able to flip it up because the lights are already on. So, the rodent is big enough to reach that height… wonderful.
You toe your boots off and hang your coat up, tossing your keys in the old stolen ashtray you use to house them. When you round the corner, the familiar, lovable vermin is bent over as he rummages through your fridge.
It’s ridiculous, honestly, given that this particular species of rat earns quadruple your salary.
“Koo,” you get his attention.
“Hm?”
He doesn’t budge an inch when responding to the call of his nickname. Eyes rolling back, you stroll over and smack his ass as hard as you can.
“Yo!” Jungkook jerks up and just barely misses hitting his head on the refrigerator. “Take me to dinner first.”
“I am,” you reply. “You’re eating my food.”
Jungkook smiles innocently and squishes your cheeks with his fingers before shaking your head back and forth.
“And I’m so, so grateful,” he teases in a baby voice.
You swat his hand away, but the light in your eyes and the remnants of a smile on your face reveal your true feelings about his teasing.
This predicament is one of your own creation, since you gave Jungkook a key a while ago in case of emergencies. The issue is, an emergency for Jungkook can be your place being closer to the gym than his, and he needs a snack after his workout. In your mind, the purpose was so he can bring you chocolate ice cream on your period and take down intruders. He’s only done one of those things so far, and the intruder was a stray cat.
Falling to your couch with a soft thump, you groan and tilt your head back against the cushions. Today was egregiously long and definitely not worth the money it made you. The only upside is it’s Friday and you have two whole days to lounge around your apartment and do nothing at all.
Jungkook comes around the peninsula which separates your kitchen from your living room with a fresh bowl of instant ramen in his hands. He blows on the noodles for a second before slurping them into his mouth, all without noticing the glare you’re sending his way. His eyes crinkle when he sees you, letting you know he’s smiling, even though you can’t see his mouth behind the bowl.
“What’s with the face, Bambi?”
“You seriously didn’t think of making one for me?” You ask through a pout.
You finally see Jungkook’s smile when he lowers the bowl to place it on the peninsula. He looks proud, his head tilting as he chuckles to himself.
Then, you hear the microwave go off, and your glare quickly turns into a grin.
Jungkook grabs the second bowl from the microwave and sets it on the counter. You watch appreciatively as he rips open the sauce packet before putting it between his teeth and using his chopsticks to pour it all into the bowl. The crinkle of a cheese wrapper opening brings your eyebrows up your forehead in delight. He drops the orange square into the bowl and mixes everything together with the chopsticks before holding it out towards you.
“You gonna take that shit back now or what?”
You beam and giggle as you stand, practically skipping across the room so you can take the bowl of delicious noodles from him.
“Thank you,” you sing-song.
“Mmhmm.”
The two of you eat on your couch in a slurp filled ambiance. It’s an old, familiar scene and one you always appreciate even if you don’t say it outloud.
They say you choose your friends, but Jungkook was pretty much forced on you. Your mothers are college roommates who became best friends and later married another pair of best friends. The women proceeded to plot and plan accordingly so they would be pregnant together and their kids would be the same age. Unfortunately, your parents went off script by about six months, but you and Jungkook are still close enough in age to be in the same grade throughout school.
Even though your friendship was intricately planned long before your conception, you’re close of your own volition.
Jungkook is not only your best friend, but the most amazing person you know and probably in existence. You wouldn’t trade him for the world if it came down to it. In fact, if the zombie apocalypse ever happens, and somehow his death is the only way to find a cure, you will Joel Miller-style kill every single person who dares to try and take him from you. They can rip your dorky, caring, smart-ass best friend from your cold, dead hands. Everyone else can become zombies for all you care, everyone but him.
The sound of a bowl meeting the coffee table pulls your attention back to the man beside you. He kicks his feet up and stretches his arms above his head in relaxation. When the action reveals a sliver of skin from below the hem of his shirt, you use the opportunity to tickle him and laugh when he groans and folds into himself.
“Is this really the game you wanna play, Bams?” He speaks to the floor, still hunching over from your attack.
Bambi, or Bams for short, is the only name Jungkook calls you. Sometimes, you jokingly accuse him of forgetting your real name altogether, which then spurs him on to attempt “guessing” what it is. Ironically, neither of you nor your parents can recall the origin of the nickname. Like some strange Mandela effect, one day he started calling you by the Disney character’s name and never stopped.
If memory serves correctly, you think the last time you heard the syllables of your name leave his mouth was in fifth grade when he defended you against a clique of mean girls. Something along the lines of “leave my Y/N alone,” in his adorable kiddie Jungkook voice.
He’s certainly gone through some drastic changes since then. His voice now filters out in a deep, honey tone, he doesn’t use his bangs to conceal his starry eyes anymore, and he’s got you beat by a few inches in height. You’re different, too, mostly in the way you no longer need him to defend you on the playground. He still would, though, and he often tries on nights out when someone tries testing your patience.
Jungkook would never hurt a fly, but he’s got an entire sleeve of tattoos, multiple piercings, and broad shoulders, so he uses his outward appearance to his advantage and scares people away when necessary.
You don’t respond to his taunt, instead you slowly slide across the fabric of the couch, as quietly as you can so he doesn’t pick up on the movement. He, of course, notices right away, and a cheshire grin appears before your eyes.
Standing up like lightning, you make a break for your bedroom, but you only reach the back of the couch before his arms are clinching you by the waist.
“No!” You shout and kick the air as he tugs you back towards the furniture.
“You asked for this.”
“Koo, no!”
He drops you unceremoniously onto the cushions where you flail in an attempt to escape, but it’s futile because Jungkook is already bending down to tickle your sides. Hysterical laughter fills the space as his fingertips pitter-patter on your skin. Your best friend is ruthless as always, never halting his actions even as you squirm and swat at him to get away.
“Say you’re sorry, Bambi.”
“Jungkook, I’m gonna fucking pee my pants,” you threaten.
“Not my problem,” he responds.
You gasp and recoil when he starts tickling your neck, rendering you completely useless to do anything but suffer. Eventually, your brain returns from its momentary vacation and you find the will to fight back, grabbing his hands and pulling them away as you attempt to catch your breath. Jungkook’s smiling like the devil himself above you and you resist the urge to slap the smirk right off his handsome face.
This behavior is par for the course for you both, because you’re a brat who likes to test his limits, and he’s too competitive to let you have the last laugh.
Jungkook stands to his full height, smirk still intact, while you struggle to slow your jackrabbiting heart. He moseys over to your bookshelf to survey its contents, and once you’re sitting up again, you chuck a throw pillow across the room at him. It meets his back before pathetically falling to the floor. Jungkook doesn’t even flinch. He just shakes his head and tsks at your feeble attempt at payback.
His fingers trace over the items occupying your bookshelf before settling on a thin rectangle and removing it from its home.
“Movie night?”
He rests the corner of the DVD case against his head to show it off to you. You call him towards you with your hand so you can inspect the item for yourself. It houses a movie you haven’t seen in a long time, some low budget rom com with good sex scenes. Shrugging, you nod your head at him and watch as he goes to play the movie in your now ancient DVD player.
“I’ll go make popcorn,” you announce before standing and heading to the kitchen.
Jungkook plummets into the couch and grabs your fuzzy blanket to spread over his legs. When you return with a large bowl of popcorn to share, he lifts the blanket and readjusts it to cover your legs as well.
Neither of you pay much attention to the plot, too busy joking around when characters say stupid lines. You spend your time talking about your week and any plans for the upcoming weekend instead. Jungkook’s just finishing up his story about his boss accidentally unmuting himself on Teams when the first sex scene catches your attention. You both actually focus on the screen for the first time and Jungkook tilts his head while tonguing his cheek as the male character descends down the female character’s body and kisses her skin as he goes.
“Do you ever think about it?” He asks as he throws a kernel of popcorn into the air and catches it with his mouth.
“About what?” You look towards the screen. “Sex?” He nods and puts his arm behind you on the couch so he can face you. “Like, in general, or —”
“No, no,” Jungkook chuckles. “Like us.”
“Us?”
“Yeah, have you thought about us having sex?”
The popcorn in your mouth goes down the wrong tube when you choke in response to his question. You hit your chest once to help it descend your esophagus before reaching for your drink on the coffee table. The time it takes you to gulp down the fizzy beverage isn’t nearly enough for you to gather your thoughts.
“Koo, what the actual fuck,” you scold him.
“Is that a no?” He raises his eyebrows at you suggestively. “Because I know I have.”
“Ew, when?”
“It’s not often, just like, every once in a while,” he explains. “I just think it would be fun! This is not me making some grandstand announcement about how I’ve always wanted you or some shit.” He readjusts so his entire body faces you directly. “Listen, we’ve done everything together. Skydiving, parasailing, swimming with dolphins, stealing from the grocery store, sneaking into the movies, you name it. Doesn’t it make sense that we should do everything before we aren’t able to anymore?”
“You forced me to go skydiving, Jungkook.”
“That’s not the point, Bambi,” he playfully grits his teeth. “Eventually, we’re gonna settle down with our own partners and the window of opportunity will be gone. Why not try something new together while we still can?”
Your teeth hold your bottom lip captive as your mind processes his proposal. Truthfully, you have thought about it, same as him. Not in some romantic, storybook way, but just from a perspective of knowing he’s a handsome guy with a great build and it would probably be a fun night for both of you. This conversation scares the shit out of you, though. Thinking about it is one thing, but attempting to manifest it into reality is a whole other beast. The list of things that could go wrong is longer than a CVS receipt. Then again, you and Jungkook have been through everything together and you’ve always made it out on the other side.
“Koo, I don’t know…” you admit. “I love me some good casual sex with no feelings involved, but this is us we’re talking about.”
“Exactly!” He claps his hands together eagerly. “It’s us, probably the only two people in the whole world who nothing can come between.” Jungkook sighs and eats more popcorn from the bowl still in your lap. “I’m not trying to pressure you, Bams, I just really think we’d both have a great time. I mean, I’m hot, you’re hot, I’ve got a big dick, I’m sure your pussy is tight, what else could you want?”
You laugh at his reasoning, throwing your head back and holding the position as you blow air from your mouth. A couple anticipatory moments pass as your mind weighs the options. A large intake of air fills your lungs before you lift your head.
“Okay,” you murmur.
“Okay?”
“Okay, Koo.”
Jungkook giggles like a little kid, his feet stamping the ground repeatedly as he pumps his arms in excitement. Your laughter returns in response to his celebration, rolling your eyes affectionately at the familiar behavior of your childhood best friend.
“You said yes because I called you tight, is that it?”
Shaking your head, you push his shoulder back with your hand, using your other one to place the popcorn bowl on the coffee table. Jungkook’s eyes turn into big oases of black as his pupils dilate and conceal the normal chocolate color of his irises. You take your time straddling his thighs, your knees digging into the couch beside his hips.
“No,” you answer him. Making a show of flipping your hair over your shoulder and bending down until you’re face to face. You avoid his lips, which are pouting slightly, to place a kiss over the tiny mole on his neck. “I said yes because you said you have a big dick and now I need to find out if that’s true,” you whisper into his ear.
Your voice has a sultry edge you’ve never used in his presence before. Sitting back on your heels, you gaze at him with an innocent smile as you bat your eyelashes.
Jungkook’s look of surprise is long gone, his eyes sharpening until they’re a quarter of their normal size as he stares you down. The muscles in his jaw clench and the skin of his brow creases, his eyebrows nearly kissing. Your eyes catch the thick vein in his neck pulsing with adrenaline and it makes your thighs tingle.
He laughs incredulously, running a hand through his hair as he tongues his cheek.
“Alright, so we’re doing it this way,” he muses.
In an instant, Jungkook is grabbing your hips and slamming you down into his lap. You gasp and brace yourself on his shoulders. Your reaction brings a satisfied smirk to his face, and you have the urge to roll your eyes again, but then his fingers rake into your hair and he yanks the strands to expose your throat. A needy whine passes through your lips as your neck beckons him to give it attention. He places a single, gentle kiss to your pulse point before leaving you wanting. A second noise of complaint is about to leave you when Jungkook finally starts devouring your neck with his mouth.
“Oh, fuck,” you moan quietly.
Jungkook chuckles melodiously against the wet spots he’s leaving on you. The feeling of his warm breath on your skin forms goosebumps across your arms and sends a shiver straight down your spine. His teeth are maiming your neck as he works diligently to paint you in pretty, purple bruises shaped like his mouth. Once the artwork appears before his eyes, he licks over the mark and kisses it before moving to conquer another spot.
Meanwhile, your hips spring into action and you start moving in languid circles across his lap. The initial plan is to keep the pressure of your movements teasingly light, but once you feel the apparent bulge forming in his pants, you can’t resist grinding down hard against his clothed cock.
Jungkook groans responsively and bites into your skin with his canines.
Soon enough, he ceases his assault on your neck so his lips can travel across your shoulder instead. His fingers push your shirt down your arm so he can kiss and lick your skin unimpeached. You moan loudly, the rhythm of your hips picking up in tempo as he seeks out every inch of exposed skin he can.
“Fuck, I could come in my fucking pants, Bams,” he whispers. “Please don’t stop.”
His words only motivate you to push your hips into him harder. He groans again and nods his head approvingly. You agree with him internally, the friction from your underwear rubbing against your clit steadily sending you into a frenzy.
“So good, Koo.”
Jungkook hums and leans back to appreciate the portrait of his lips he’s left on you. His fingertips gently trace over the hickies and he wears a proud smile as he turns your head back and forth to examine his work.
“You look so pretty, all marked up,” he praises.
Pushing him down by his shoulders, you grab his face with both hands to kiss him. There’s an electric shock when your lips meet for the first time, but you aren’t sure if it’s only in your head or if he felt it, too.
The kiss is anything but romantic. Within seconds you’re licking into his mouth and chasing his tongue while his teeth pull at your bottom lip. Jungkook moans and his fingers press down against your scalp. Tilting your head, you kiss him like he’s your only source of oxygen. Your body and mind are in overdrive, your thighs twitching with need and you need his lips to bring you back down to earth.
He tastes sweet like the cola he was drinking and it makes your head spin. The pretty, pink, doll lips you’ve always admired are magical in the way they move. Jungkook has you trapped between his mouth and the hand on your head, but you don’t mind when he’s kissing you until your mind blanks.
It's a scramble of fingers and hands as you undress one another as fast as humanly possible. His warm hands brush against your stomach as he lifts your top over your head. You feel his abs beneath your fingers when you tug off his shirt. Jungkook accidentally pinches your skin when unhooking your bra and you don’t even notice, too busy kissing him like your life depends on it.
When Jungkook sees your tits for the first time, he fucking loses it. His head hits the arm of the couch as it falls back, and the growl that comes from deep within his throat is fucking demonic.
“God, you are so fucking hot,” he declares.
You’re unable to respond because he’s already wrapping his mouth around your nipple and tweaking the other with his fingers, forcing the air from your lungs instantaneously. Jungkook’s tongue circles your nipple a couple times before he sucks the erect nub into his mouth, keeping the same pace with his fingers on your other breast.
The moans coming from you are unrecognizable in comparison to your normal timbre, and they only grow in volume when Jungkook switches sides and repeats his debilitating ministrations.
Lacing your fingers through his black strands, you pull his face away from your chest to see his eyes. He barely looks like himself anymore, a scorching fire behind his usual soft gaze. The image lights you up inside, and you kiss him again hard enough that he tumbles back into the couch cushions and brings you along with him.
His hands explore the smooth skin of your back and shoulders, massaging you with his big hands as he traverses across the previously uncharted territory.
“You’re so sexy, Jungkook,” you tell him as you kiss his jaw. “Everything about you.”
His skin is searing hot and flushed red, the tint going all the way down his neck and chest. You take your time moving across his jawline and throat, sucking just below his ear and letting your tongue trace the perimeter of his earlobe. Descending down his torso, you kiss his collarbones and pecs while digging your nails into his abs, your ample attempt at showing him exactly what you mean by your comment.
“Need you, Bambi, so fucking bad,” he whines.
The only acknowledgment you give him is by looking up with a devilish smirk before your hands start to unbutton his jeans. You pull them down just enough to reveal his boxers and hold his eye contact while you kiss the fabric covering his cock. Jungkook’s hips twitch and his eyes squeeze shut, an undeniably sexy groan leaving him. Your hands caress his thighs while you mouth at his boxers and you can feel him getting harder with each press of your lips.
He hurries to pull his pants down the rest of the way while you hook your fingers into the waistband of his boxers. When you tease him by letting them snap against his hips, he hisses and you see his Adam's apple bob. His hips buck towards your face desperately, making you snicker at his attempt to create friction.
“Patience, Koo,” you tease him. Jungkook grits his teeth at your taunt, but only a second later the tension seeps from his body when you reach into his boxers and palm him. “Let’s see if you were exaggerating or not, hmm?”
Once his boxers are gone, you realize he was, in fact, under exaggerating. He knows it, too, because when you glance up, he’s smirking with pride, one corner of his mouth higher than the other.
“Whaddaya think?”
“Oh, fuck you.”
“How about you see how much that pretty mouth of yours can take?”
One thing about you and Jungkook is you're both competitive as hell, and you’ll be damned if his whole dick isn’t situated down your throat soon just to prove a point.
Gathering spit in your mouth, you lean directly over his hard cock and let it slowly fall from your lips to his head. You wait for the sound of Jungkook moaning before doing it again, this time actually spitting instead of letting it drip down. Your hand gathers the saliva to spread it over his head and down his shaft. Your best friend is panting above you as he studies the way you work his cock with your hand.
Jungkook is stupid fucking big, and you genuinely fear he’ll split you in half when you fuck. Not only is his dick long, but it’s so thick your fingertips don’t touch when you grasp him. He’s rock hard and throbbing in your hold and there’s a perfect bead of precum just waiting for you to lick.
When you do, Jungkook cries out in pleasure and it's hands down the sexiest sound you’ve ever heard. He’s always been the tough one between you, and having him like puddy in your hands is more satisfying than you care to admit.
Your tongue flattens over his slit and you groan at the taste of his cum, your mouth already watering at the thought of more coming your way. You lick around his head in one long stroke and then circle your tongue just under the sensitive ridge. Jungkook whines at the feeling of your tongue on his aching dick. Your hand is still using your self-made lubricant to glide up and down his shaft.
“Bams, fuck,” Jungkook pants the words across staccato exhales.
It’s nearly impossible for you to say no to the man begging for your mouth, so you finally end your teasing and take him between your lips. You suckle on his head and let more saliva drip down his shaft before removing your hand to focus solely on the movements of your mouth. Your hands hold onto his muscular thighs as you finally take him deeper into your throat.
It definitely takes time for your lips and throat to adjust to his size. Each time you slide down his cock you take more of him into your mouth until your nose hits his pelvis. You breathe through your nose and stay there for a moment, swallowing and moaning around him.
“Oh, shit.” Jungkook looks down at you in awe, watching in wonder at the way your lips stretch around his cock. “Bambi, holy fucking shit.”
The chuckle you release sends vibrations around Jungkook’s dick and his hips buck up responsively. You moan again and squeeze his thighs, attempting to send a message that he’s free to repeat the action. He must interpret your message accurately because you feel him forming your hair into a makeshift ponytail and thrusting his hips up.
Jungkook would never want to hurt you, so even though his body is screaming at him to animalisticaly fuck your mouth, his thrusts are shallow and modest.
Even so, his strokes make you gag every time his tip hits the back of your throat. He’s pulling on your hair and the sensation of being used like a sex toy makes your eyes roll back. Tears form and roll down to meet the drool that’s leaking from your mouth. Breathing through your nose, you suck harder to make a tighter fit for him. He’s appreciative, growling and yanking on your hair as a thank you.
“Shit, I’m gonna come,” he warns you. Hearing his words, you massage his heavy balls in your hand to push him over the edge. A broken moan comes from above you and his hips start to lose their cadence as his orgasm nears. “Can I… your throat…”
His words are clipped, but you understand and squeeze his thigh to give him permission. Within a single moment you start tasting his cum at the back of your throat. Moaning endlessly at how good he tastes, you move your lips up and down his cock as he comes, swallowing his seed and licking him clean at the same time.
When you’re certain you’ve stolen every last drop and sucked him dry, you come up for air with a harsh gasp.
“Holy fuck,” you curse and massage your jaw.
Jungkook grabs your chin with his hand and makes you look at him so he can see that you’re alright. You nod assuredly and sit back on your heels.
“That was, on God, the best thing that’s ever happened to me,” Jungkook states.
You laugh and shove his chest, but he snatches your hand and pulls you towards him. He kisses you like he fucking means it, grabbing the side of your face so you can’t move an inch. Your moans meet in each other’s mouths as Jungkook sucks on your tongue to taste himself.
“Can we move this party to the bedroom?”
Jungkook nods, his hand still caressing your face, before helping you up so you can both head to your room at the back of the apartment. When the door opens, your grey munchkin cat scurries out from behind the door.
“Oh, Usagi, I forgot you were in there,” you say as she bolts for her scratching post.
“Probably a good thing,” Jungkook notes, his eyes gesturing down to his dick still on display.
You chuckle and grab his hand to lead him into the room before shutting the door behind you. He immediately takes a seat on the bed while you stay standing to pull your pants down your legs.
Jungkook’s eyes trace the movement, his pupils blowing even wider when he sees your black lace panties and the evident wet spot on them. Reaching his hand out, you take it and stand between his legs. Your hands push his hair back, scratching at his scalp to hear the pretty moan that accompanies the movement.
He leans forward and kisses your abdomen, just above your panties. You sigh as his lips traverse the expanse of your stomach and hips, leaving a hot, wet trail in their wake.
“Koo, need you,” you whimper.
The feeling of his teeth sinking into the skin of your waist makes you jump, but then he soothes the ache with his tongue.
“You know, since you made me come already, I’m going to have to fuck you in other ways until I’m ready to go again,” he states. You hum in acknowledgment and he rests his chin against you to gaze upwards. “You gonna be able to handle that, Bams?”
“Don’t go making promises you can’t keep.”
Jungkook scoffs and turns you around, slapping your ass harshly before pulling you down into his lap. You yelp at the sudden change in position, but the feeling of his warm chest on your back makes you melt into his embrace.
“Do you even know me at all, Bams?” He scoffs again. “How many orgasms have you had in one night before?”
“Like… three?”
“Pussy fucking numbers,” he snaps. “We’re aiming for double digits here.”
“Jungkook!” You look over your shoulder at him in shock, but his facial expression is completely serious. “You’re joking.”
“No, I’m really fucking not.”
“I’ll die.”
Jungkook just shakes his head disapprovingly and licks his lips. He grabs your jaw to turn your head, his hand diving into your hair again to hold you in place so he can ravish your mouth. His kiss has you completely hypnotized and you barely remember the conversation you were just having.
“How about we compromise and aim for five?” He suggests.
You want to kiss him too badly to muster a response, so you just hum in affirmation before turning around and bringing his lips to yours. He pulls you into him as he falls back onto the bed. Your legs return to their position on either side of his muscular thighs, and your lips work earnestly to kiss every inch of his face and jaw until they reach his neck.
Your clothed cunt grinds over his dick as you mark him with a matching bruise to your own, the friction created by your panties making you groan. You continue to lick and torment the delicate skin of his neck while he guides your movements with his hands.
All too soon, Jungkook stops you by grabbing your shoulder and you eye him curiously. His eyes flit around the features of your face for a minute. When he smiles in satisfaction, you know he’s got a tantalizing idea for how he’s going to make you come.
“Sit on my face,” he commands.
You don’t need to be told twice to get your pussy ate.
Jungkook moves to the center of the bed and taps his chest to beckon you over. Bending to remove your panties, you look up in surprise when Jungkook halts your actions by grabbing your wrist.
“How expensive were those?” He asks.
“$20 maybe.”
“Leave ‘em on, I’ll buy you new ones.”
Sometimes you conveniently forget your best friend is rich until moments like these when he reminds you.
When you and Jungkook were in college he coded and designed an entire video game in his spare time, because he’s a freaking genius, and then he sold said video game for millions of dollars. Now he works as a lead designer at the biggest video game company in the country and consistently makes six figures.
Jungkook has a huge dick and an even bigger bank account, and here you thought God made everyone equal.
Shrugging at his instruction, you do as he says and climb onto the bed. As tactfully as possible, you maneuver your legs around Jungkook’s head and sit up on your knees so your core is a few inches above his mouth. His hands hold your hips and he takes the time to trace over your curves while looking up at your pussy slowly soaking the lace of your underwear.
After several long moments of eager anticipation, he yanks you down by your thighs until the tip of his nose is tickling you. Your head tips back as you sigh, the feeling of his nose rubbing against your clit through your underwear satiating the craving for his touch. He presses a few chaste kisses to the black fabric as he nuzzles his nose into your cunt to give you more friction. You grip his hair beneath you as he continues to tease you with featherlight touches of his nose and mouth.
“Koo, don’t,” you beg.
His only reply is a hum and you feel the vibrations from it against your core. Then he bites at your underwear to give him access to your pussy before licking you from bottom to top. The fabric sinks between your folds as Jungkook’s tongue presses the panties into you and the friction feels unbelievable on your clit.
Your hand yanks on his hair in appreciation as he continues to eat you out and use your sopping wet panties to pleasure you.
Once he’s ready for more, his hands move towards your cunt and a loud ripping sound permeates the air. You gasp when you feel him throw your torn panties to the side before forcing your pussy down harder on his face. He collects all the essence you’re leaking with an erotic slurping sound. His tongue slides through your folds and fucks into your hole while his nose continues to apply pressure to your clit.
“Holy shit, Jungkook.”
He laughs against your pussy and slows down just enough so you can hear him.
“You haven’t seen anything yet, Bams.”
Your free hand claws at the bed frame haphazardly as he eats you like it’s his goddamn job. He kisses your cunt messily, spitting into it and smearing your cum around his face along with his own salvia. His tongue travels up to your clit and the pure, unadulterated pleasure makes you scream. When he flattens the muscle against your sensitive nub you swear you’ll fall over, but his hands on your thighs are still holding you steady above him.
“Koo, holy fuck.” Your head tips back and your nails bite into the fabric of the headboard. “Make me come, please.”
Jungkook moans responsively beneath you and dives in even deeper, licking you menacingly without reprieve while guiding your hips to ride his face. You take the hint and begin moving your hips on your own, letting your pussy press against all the outlines of his face as his tongue laps up your juices.
He returns to your clit again and scrapes his teeth against it, causing tears to escape from your waterline as you whimper. Soothing the ache of his bite with his tongue, he slows to a tortuous pace as he kitten licks you for a while. You’re crying continuously now, your hips desperately seeking anything they can get as you move across his face in an erratic rhythm. Jungkook takes pity on you and finally sucks your clit into his mouth before moaning so he can send you right over the edge.
Your hand sinks further into Jungkook’s hair and your nails scratch his scalp as you come all over his face. The bedframe rocks from how hard you’re holding on while your legs shake from the force of your orgasm. Absolute, unbridled euphoria moves through you and makes your eyes roll back.
Jungkook continues to lick your cunt until you jump from the oversensitivity and move away from his face. You hear a disappointed groan as you crash onto the bed beside him.
“You taste so fucking good, Bams,” he tells you. “I could do that all fucking night.”
Chest swelling with pride, you’re about to reply when you feel something against your back and frown in confusion. The scratchy material rubs awkwardly against you and you bend away from it to grab it.
Your soaked, ripped panties dangle from your fingers as you click your tongue and throw them into the trash can.
“You’re a fucking gremlin,” you note.
Jungkook doesn’t respond to your statement, he just maintains eye contact while moving to kneel before pulling you closer by the waist. The pretty vision of him above you makes your breath hitch.
His hand travels ostentatiously from your neck all the way down to your hip, lighting an internal fire within you wherever his touch goes. You wait with bated breath as his fingers dance across your skin until they reach your center. Jungkook deliberately teases you, his fingertips just barely touching your clit before moving away again.
You hiss and grab his wrist so his hand can’t move towards your pussy again.
“What?” Jungkook smiles down at you with a tilt of his head. “You’re not ready for more yet? We’re only at one of five, Bambi, we’ve got a lot more work to do.” He twists his hand out of your hold and presses down on your clit. You whimper and silently beg him with your eyes. “Plus, I’m an overachiever, so you know five is really going to be more like seven.”
“Seven?”
“Ilgop.”
“Fuck, don’t speak Korean to me right now. You know how hot it gets me.”
Jungkook giggles, his head falling into the crook of your neck. You smile at the sound and run your fingers through his hair.
He takes the opportunity to kiss your neck, and you instinctively lean your head away to give him more of you. His lips caress you gently for a while, but then he growls against your throat and grabs your jaw to hold you still. Your gasp settles into a moan and Jungkook takes it as a cue to continue playing with your pussy. His fingers circle your clit and your noises become even needier. He dips into your folds to collect your cum so he can rub over your nerve endings and it nearly expels all the air from your lungs.
Jungkook touches you like he’s done it a million times already and that thought alone leaves you breathless.
“Koo, baby, please,” you whimper in a tone even you don’t recognize. Jungkook’s big, boba eyes are back when he captures your gaze to wordlessly ask what you’re begging him for. “I don’t want to come. I want you.”
A dazzling smile appears on Jungkook’s lips, and a pretty, pink blush spreads across his cheeks and turns the tips of his ears red.
“Alright, Bambi,” he responds with a peck. “Condom?”
You shake your head, wrapping your arms around his neck and bringing him in for more kisses.
“I’m on birth control.”
Jungkook kisses you again before you can do so yourself.
“Yeah?”
“Mmhmm,” you nod against his lips. “Want you raw, Koo.”
Jungkook goes to pump his cock with his hand, but before he has the chance, you bring his palm to your lips and spit into it. He groans, his eyes rolling back, as he reaches down and uses your spit to fuck his hand.
Your eyes follow the movement of his wrist jerking himself off. It’s honestly mouthwatering to watch his thick cockhead push past his fingers as he gets himself hard again for you.
He kisses your shoulder and collarbone, then licks up your neck until he reaches your ear. His teeth softly sink into the cartilage.
“You ready for me, Bams?”
His deep voice melts your insides into goo and forces your brain into another frequency. Everything is static except for the feeling of his body hovering above yours.
All you do is nod your head in response to his question.
Jungkook’s tip pushes past your tight circle of nerves and already you feel too full to function. A wanton gasp and whimper follow the intrusion as he slowly enters you for the first time. Your nails create crescents on his shoulders as you inhale through your nose to relieve the pressure in your core.
“Koo… you’re so fucking big,” you whine.
“I know, I know,” he chuckles.
He kisses your temple appreciatively.
By the time his entire cock is deep within your walls, his pelvis pressing against your own, you already feel yourself losing it. Jungkook fills you up completely, and you can barely bring yourself to exhale the air you’re holding in.
“Fuck, Bambi, are you a virgin or some shit?”
“You know damn well I’m not a virgin,” you grit.
Jungkook groans deeply as his head falls forward and his hair tickles your cheeks when he shakes his head in disbelief.
“Then what the fuck are you so fucking tight for?”
You loudly hum and pretend to think it over before glancing at him with a sultry tilt of your head.
“I think my pussy’s just that good,” you say. Pulling his face down so it’s only centimeters away, you let your lips brush for a split second before replying. “And it’s all yours, Jungkook. So fuck me like you mean it.”
Jungkook rears back and ferociously thrusts into you before your next breath can even exit your lungs.
“Oh, fuck!”
A sinister chuckle comes from your best friend.
“Be careful what you wish for.”
Any semblance of control is forcefully taken away when Jungkook grabs your hands and slams them into the mattress above your head. Simultaneously, he begins pumping his cock into you at a disastrous pace and you can’t do anything but incoherently moan.
There’s no adjustment period, no slow-moving start. Jungkook is already fucking you like a goddamn ragdoll made solely for his pleasure.
“Koo, oh my fucking God,” you cry. It’s barely been a minute and hot, salty tears are already streaming down your face.
Jungkook kisses you and his moans filter into your mouth. His grip on your hands is bruising and it makes you whimper pathetically against his lips.
“Jungkook,” you sob as he abuses your pussy.
“Shh, shh.” He kisses you gently. “You can take it.” He kisses your cheek and up the side of your face. “I got you, Bams.”
You keen and your hands clasp around Jungkook’s in an effort to protect whatever’s left of your sanity.
His cock is buried in your pussy but you swear you feel yourself choking on him in your throat. Everytime his tip kisses your cervix you fear being split in two and yet there’s nothing you want more than for him to continue. You want him to rip you in half if it means feeling this full. He’s combining his strokes with a grind of his hips and it makes your cunt greedy for him, sucking him inside and squeezing his cock so he’ll never leave again.
Jungkook is throbbing and scorching hot inside you and the heat travels from your pussy throughout your entire body, lighting a fire in your bones and between your muscles that only he has the ability to stifle.
Your senses are amped up to ten and you scream over how deep he’s sending his dick into you.
The fire escapes externally when Jungkook releases your hands to explore your body instead. They travel down your entire outline until they find your hips and he tilts them upwards to create a new angle.
“Fuck, I always knew your pussy would feel this good,” he grunts. “You’re a fucking dream.”
The combination of the closer angle and Jungkook’s praises genuinely turns you to ruins, scattering pieces of your soul around and covering them in ivy. You kiss him again even though you know there’s no use, you’re shattered already. You devour his mouth, responding to his compliment through the movement of your lips instead of the words your body can’t produce at the moment.
Your fingers tilt his head so you can mouth at his sharp jaw, letting your tongue slide across his skin as he growls in your ear. Alternating between biting and kissing, you soak his honey skin in your spit and listen for the moans coming from deep within his chest.
“You feel so good, Koo,” you whisper into his ear. “Your cock fills me up so fucking well.”
“Shit,” he grunts. Jungkook grabs your thighs and pulls them up higher until you’re practically bent in half, your knees next to his shoulders. “So fucking good. You take me like a fucking champ, Bambi.”
Jungkook slows his pace by a hair, but only so he can thrust into you harder. Each clap of your skin connecting pulls a pornographic moan from your throat. You feel his balls slapping against your ass and the way your bodies are pressing together adds just the right amount of pressure on your clit.
It makes for a mind boggling combination that has your brain disintegrating into nothingness.
Your next orgasm is looming just around the corner. It builds inside you like a rollercoaster slowly moving up the track. Jungkook ups his pace again when he feels the telltale signs of your cunt pulsing and tightening around him like a vice.
“Cream my cock, Bams,” he commands. “C’mon, beautiful.”
A splintering gasp chokes you as you obey and come around his dick, coating his entire shaft in white essence.
The climax is brain chemistry altering. It feels as though your blood is ablaze and your heart can’t beat fast enough to push it through your body. Your legs clamp around his waist as they shake and convulse from the pleasure. All the while, Jungkook continues fucking his cock into your hole and sending you straight into oversensitivity subspace.
You’re still catching your breath when you grab Jungkook tightly by the shoulder to halt his movements. He looks at you with curious eyes, but he doesn’t completely stop, just slows down significantly and thrusts shallowly into you.
“Wanna ride you, Koo,” you tell him. “Wanna make you come so you can stuff me and watch it drip out.”
Jungkook closes his eyes, his teeth grinding together.
“Jesus fucking Christ, you can’t just say shit like that and expect me not to bust!”
You laugh mischievously as he grabs you by the waist to flip you both over. Your bodies are only parted for a mere moment before you’re sinking back down onto his dick and scratching at his pecs with your nails.
“Oh my God, I didn’t think it was possible for you to reach any further inside me,” you note.
“Of course, Bambi, gonna rearrange your fucking guts,” Jungkook proudly states.
It’s disturbing how exciting the thought of that is.
The rhythm of your hips is nowhere near as monstrous, letting his cock slowly leave your cunt before feeling him fill you up again one inch at a time. Using his chest to stabilize yourself, your thighs work religiously to bounce and fuck yourself on him. You look towards the ceiling, a groan rising from your throat due to his thick cock pressing against your walls and hitting just the right spot inside you.
Jungkook reaches up to play with your tits dangling over his face, massaging them in his big hands before pushing them together. His fingers pinch your nipples until they’re pebbled and stiff. He leans forward to take one into his mouth and you have to grab onto his hair for support.
He smacks your ass and you yelp, but you understand the message he’s trying to send and pick up the pace. You push him back down and lean over so your hard nipples are pressing against the heat of his chest.
“Atta girl,” he praises with another stinging slap of his hand on your ass. His digits make a home in your hair again and he uses the leverage to force you to stare into his eyes. “Pussy s’fucking good, Bams.” Jungkook kisses across your neck torturously slow before speaking again. “So fucking tight, warm, wet… could stay in here for-fucking-ever.”
“Koo,” you whisper breathlessly.
Your hips swivel in desperation to send his dick as deep as it can go, honestly hoping your guts do part for him so his cock can nestle permanently inside you.
“You gonna come again?”
“Mmhmm.”
“Good,” he speaks into your ear. “Come on my big, fat cock, babygirl.”
The moan you let out is the most humiliating sound to ever come from your body.
Luckily, no more are able to escape because Jungkook kisses you senseless. His tongue shoves into your mouth and licks around your own as you bounce on him as fast as your thighs will allow. He perpetuates your efforts by grasping your hips and rolling his own against you. It creates the perfect amount of friction on your clit and sends you tumbling into a pool of ecstasy.
“Fuck, Jungkook!”
You weep over the intensity of your orgasm while he continues kissing you. Not wanting to lose an ounce of momentum, Jungkook takes over for you as your orgasm paralyzes your mind.
He fucks you relentlessly to bring about his own climax and the sound of your skin clapping together is so loud you worry it will shake your doorframe and alert the neighbors.
“Gonna fill you up, Bams,” he warns you.
He thrusts hard once, twice, sending his cock so deep you swear you see your stomach bulge, and then he grunts and a strangled cry breaks from his lips as he paints your pussy with his cum.
The heat of it makes your eyes roll into your skull.
You kiss him through the come down, slowly traversing across the bottom half of his face and scraping his jaw with your teeth. He moans weakly, the hand still in your hair moving down to your neck and squeezing it affectionately. You make out as he goes flaccid within you, the mixture of your juices slowly dripping out and soaking your thighs.
Jungkook grabs your ass in both hands and massages the fatty flesh like he owns it, giving you one final spank to tint your skin red in the shape of his hand.
“Jungkook,” you mumble against his lips. “That was s’fucking good.”
A prideful chuckle meets your ears as Jungkook rests his head against the pillows to gaze up at you.
“Yeah? Told you we’d have fun,” he brags.
Lifting yourself off of him, you curse at the sticky mess between your legs. In one motion, you swing your leg over Jungkook’s thighs and fall down next to him with a bounce. You’ll worry about the sheets being drenched in the morning.
Jungkook grabs your hand and kisses your knuckles before holding it against his heart thumping wildly in his chest.
“Thanks for trying something new with me, Bams,” he says sincerely.
Your eyes meet with twin smiles. Running your fingers through his hair, you tuck a piece behind his ear and lean in to give him a final peck of gratitude.
It takes a minute for your body to stop screaming at you so you can stand. When you head for the bathroom, Usagi meows angrily from her spot just beyond the door. You coo at her and bend down to scratch under her chin.
“I’m sowwy, baby,” you apologize to the little creature.
She saunters right past you to hop on the bed and curl up next to Jungkook who’s covering his bare body with your comforter. His eyes light up when he sees her approaching and he bends down to kiss her little head repeatedly until she meows at him to stop.
You return from the bathroom in a large sleep shirt fresh from the dryer and toss a pair of equally fresh sweats to Jungkook. Both items are originally his, anyway.
He eyes you knowingly when he clocks the familiar article of clothing. His tongue clicks with a single shake of his head before he’s slipping the pants on and securing them around his hips.
“You want me to sleep on the couch like usual?” He asks with his arms behind his head.
You scoff affectionately.
“You already look pretty comfortable right there, Koo,” you retort.
“Oh, I am.” He pets Usagi dramatically as she purrs. “And Usagi wants me here, you can’t so no to her!”
“You’re right, I can’t.”
Jungkook lifts the covers so you can join him in the snuggle puddle he and your cat are partaking in. You make yourself comfortable beneath the sheets and he mirrors you, much to Usagi’s chagrin since she’s sequestered to the foot of the bed to accommodate the extra body.
It takes you all of thirty seconds to fall asleep once your head hits the pillow, and Jungkook is already halfway into dreamland himself when you do.
You wake with a pounding headache and unbelievably sore thighs. Groaning at the aches and pains, you leave your bed and attempt to walk normally even though you feel like you got fucked by a semitruck instead of your best friend. It’s a mess of stumbling feet and running into furniture corners as you groggily head to the kitchen for some pain pills.
Grabbing some for Jungkook after swallowing your own, you head back and set them along with a water bottle on your nightstand for when he wakes up.
The smell of breakfast must coax Jungkook back into the land of the living because he stumbles out from your bedroom soon after it’s ready. You laugh at the way his hair sticks up in a million directions and his eyes barely open.
“Morning, sunshine,” you sing-song.
He only greets you with a wave as he heads towards your bathroom.
When he emerges again he looks slightly more put together, at least, you can see his big, brown eyes again as he makes his way to you.
“Morning,” he says.
“Brekkie?”
You push a plate of assorted breakfast food towards him before turning around to place your own in the sink. He eats with that lovable scowl on his face which indicates you successfully cooked him a worthwhile meal.
Neither of you bring up the events which took place last night because you don’t need to, there’s no unspoken tension or uncomfortable vibes floating around. Jungkook was right when he said nothing can come between you, and as fun as it was, now everything just goes back to normal.
It does not stay normal for long.
ONE
Women are beautiful, complex, intricate beings, whose bodies and minds can do extraordinary things. Women can move mountains when they strive to and you’re proud to call yourself one.
Simultaneously, they can be dumbasses who can’t remember when their last period was.
While sitting at your desk typing up a bullshit report for some bullshit exec who can’t be bothered to read his own emails, you open the drawer on your left. It houses all your office essentials like pens, tape, paper clips, and tampons.
Your head tilts as you examine the colorful packaging you haven’t seen in a while. There seems to be a lot of them, especially since you usually run out and have to restock halfway through hell week.
Glancing up at your calendar, you count the weeks backwards and then flip it one month prior to check the exact date.
You laugh aloud to yourself, because, surely, you just forgot to mark the calendar like you always do and you don’t remember restocking the tampons after your period ended. That must be the case because there’s no way in hell you’re two weeks late. It’s simply an impossibility and abundantly more plausible that your memory is failing you rather than your body.
The skin of your lower lip is bitten raw as your eyes flit between the calendar and the menstrual products which are both staring into your soul. If they could speak, you think they’d be saying “we know what you did.”
Pushing away from your desk, you take a deep breath and decide the best course of action is to walk around the office.
Maybe seeing the inside of a bathroom stall will jog your memory of the last time you were bleeding, or passing by the kitchen will force you to recall when you last grabbed some extra candies from the community bowl.
It’s all for nought. Your excursion around the building is an utter failure, and suddenly the walls of the office feel as though they’re closing in on you.
Deciding to head home after lunch because you can’t focus anyway, you stop at the corner store by your house and grip your purse strap to stop your hands from shaking as you enter the women’s health aisle. The hundreds of pregnancy tests glare at you from their place on the shelf and you have to sink your teeth into your battered lower lip again to stop anxious tears from forming.
This must be some horrible nightmare, you tell yourself. You’re gonna wake up and realize you fell asleep at your desk because your job is just that boring. The sharp pinch you apply to your arm forces you to stop lying to yourself.
Groaning in frustration, you analyze both the brands and prices of the demonic little fortune tellers and choose two each from multiple different brands because you need to be real fucking sure.
You’re two years shy of thirty and you still feel like you’re having a teen pregnancy scare.
The woman behind the counter is smiling as she places the tests into a bag. It’s probably because she believes you’ll be ecstatic about a positive result and run straight home to tell your husband. Most women your age would be doing so, but you don’t have a husband, you have a childhood best friend who you decided to hook up with for funsies.
The abundant traffic you hit on the way home only makes your swirling whirlpool of nerves worse, and by the time you’re unlocking your apartment door and rushing to the bathroom, your lip is bleeding from how much skin you’ve ripped.
You bought six tests, like a crazy person, and so it takes a couple minutes for you to successfully pee on all of them and place them on the counter with their caps on. Setting your phone timer for three minutes, you sit on the toilet seat to wait the eternity of 180 seconds.
The anticipation eats away at your insides like sulfuric acid, and your leg bounces forcefully as though you’re going through withdrawal.
Your mind is somersaulting over itself and flopping on the ground like a fish out of water as you wonder how this is even possible. You’re on birth control, and you checked your pills before leaving work; you didn’t miss a single one.
There’s always the horror stories about the unlucky .01% of women whose contraceptives fail due to stress or poor health, but you don’t think that applies to you. Sure, you don’t join Jungkook at the gym, and work makes you wanna pull your hair out, but you feel great most days.
The timer derails your train of thought with an incessant buzz. Glancing at the counter, you reach for one of the tests with shaking hands as you pray for the right result.
Once you find the courage to actually look, your heart stops, and when you stand to see your plethora of pregnancy tests side by side, your eyes bulge from your skull.
Staring back at you like the fates themselves are three matching sets of a plus sign, two parallel lines, and the word “pregnant.”
Hands slapping against your mouth, you gasp into your palms as reality forces its way into the bathroom with you. Your eyes squeeze shut as tears break from the confines of your waterline. You shake your head a couple times, trying to get your mind files back into their rightful places. It doesn’t work, and all the papers which make up your consciousness go flying all over the place.
The cacophony of emotions on top of your disembodied mind forces your senses to scramble and discombobulate.
You’re scared, worried, sad, confused, and shocked, but somewhere inside you’re happy, too. Being a mom is a huge dream of yours and even if it’s unexpected, it’s still a dream come true.
Unfortunately, happiness is the lowest emotion on the totem pole, and your negative emotions are much closer to the surface.
Running your hands down your face, you gaze at the tests as a sob shakes through you. You brace your hands on the counter and allow yourself to cry through all of the emotions. The heavy tears drop into the sink below you one by one as you decide what to do next.
First things first, you have to tell the baby’s father.
“Fuck, he’s gonna fucking kill me.” Tipping your head back to send the loose tears back from whence they came, you blow air from your mouth and close your eyes. “He’s gonna hate me. He’s gonna lose his shit and never wanna see me again and I’m gonna —” A sob slices through your windpipe and causes your voice to break. “I’m gonna lose him.”
You hug your knees and let yourself freefall until your butt meets the tile. The floor is cold and your muscles ache from the force of your crash into the ground, but it serves as a momentary distraction from your mental anguish. The sound of your sorrow fills the space as you take heaving breaths and soak your jeans with tears. Usagi scratches at the door and the sound of her little paws calling for you breaks your heart.
Stretching towards the door, you reach and turn the doorknob just enough for it to open.
You watch fondly as your cat’s little legs carry her to your side. When she reaches you, she jumps into your lap and curls into an adorable ball of love. Fresh tears fall over the sweet affection she’s giving you, and you bend down to kiss her and rub your face in her fur.
“You’re gonna be a big sister, Usagi,” you tell her.
Eventually, you calm down enough to stand and find your phone. You don’t think you can handle Jungkook’s voice right now, so you text him to come over whenever he’s free. He replies within a few minutes saying he’s got one more meeting and then he’ll be there. You mindlessly stare at his text message as anxiety simmers in your gut. This might just be the one thing that finally comes between you two.
When Jungkook arrives you’re pacing in a trance around the living room. He unlocks the door with his key and kicks it open since his hands are full with takeout containers. Your eyes threaten to water when you realize he’s bringing you dinner without you asking.
Your best friend is thoughtful, deliberate, and so, so kind, and here you are about to shatter his world as he knows it.
At the very second his two feet step into your apartment, you scurry across the floor and throw your arms around his neck. He takes an involuntary step back and drops the bags when you barrel into him, a deep chuckle coming from his chest that you feel against your own.
“Bams?”
You manhandle the emotions trying to escape back into their cages. You want, no, need, at least one more moment with him as you are now, before everything changes forever.
His arms wrap around you on instinct, one of his hands resting on the back of your head to cradle you closer.
“Sorry,” you say as you reluctantly let go. “Rough day.”
“Well, I brought kimchi fried rice, so it can’t be that rough,” he jokes.
You fake a smile and nod in agreement before grabbing one of the containers to bring it to the kitchen. Once he places the second one down, you tap your nails against the countertop and contemplate whether or not to wait. Jungkook, clearly oblivious to your turmoil, is already moving towards the fridge to grab a drink before sitting on the couch. It’s now or never, you suppose.
Each step you take to stand across from him feels like trudging through concrete and the overwhelming anxiety is gnawing at you like a wild animal. The notion that this could be the last time you see him smiling at you or have the ability to hear him laugh is debilitating.
You click your heels once you’re opposite him on the other side of the coffee table. He raises an eyebrow at you in a silent question, but you ignore his confusion and fill your lungs with the charged air.
“I’m pregnant.”
You didn't know silence could be so deafening.
Jungkook’s cola bottle falls from his hands onto the floor with a plastic boing sound. The noise feels inappropriate for the tension of the room. His pupils are shaking as his eyes grow in size exponentially and the skin between his eyebrows creases as his lips part. Even from here you can see his mouth’s run completely dry.
You take another deep breath, but you aren’t able to stop your emotions from leaking out anymore.
“And I’m really, really scared,” you say as your voice breaks.
Jungkook immediately snaps out of his daze when he hears your tone of voice, all of his previously tense features softening as he stands to reach you.
The next thing you know, his warm hands are caressing your cheeks as he brushes the tears away.
“Hey, hey, Bambi,” he whispers. “It’s okay. There’s nothing to be afraid of.” You cry harder at the gentle nature of his voice, like he’s worried he’ll break you if he talks too loud. “I’m right here, okay? I’m not going anywhere. You’ve got me, alright? We’ve got each other. That's all that matters.”
“You aren’t mad?”
“Mad?” Jungkook tilts his head in confusion. “You thought I would be mad at you, Bams?” You nod as best you can with your face caught between his hands. Jungkook frowns deeply. “Why would I be mad?”
“Because… because my birth control fucking failed and now we’re… we’re gonna be parents and —”
“That’s not your fault,” Jungkook interrupts. “I’m the one who creampied you, Bambi.”
“Yeah, but I told you to.”
“Oh, I assure you, I would’ve asked if you hadn’t.”
Despite your current emotional state, you laugh at his explanation. Your tears slowly, but surely, subside after a few more minutes. Gripping his wrists, you remove his hands from your face and hold them instead.
“I’m still sorry,” you say quietly.
“Don’t apologize,” he responds, then tilts your chin up. “You’re gonna make me a dad, Bams. That’s nothing to apologize for.”
The sigh of relief you exhale is exuberant. A smile creeps onto your face and Jungkook mirrors the expression before a mischievous grin appears instead.
He encompasses your waist and lifts you into the air in one swoop, you screech at the sudden movement and koala him to keep yourself from falling. He giggles incessantly as he spins you both around in circles in the middle of your living room.
“Koo! Put me down!”
He obeys after a moment, but not before bending his knees to dip you down towards the floor. You squeal until a fit of laughter overtakes you as he slowly brings you both back up to his full height.
“I’m so happy, Bams, you have no idea,” he tells you wholeheartedly.
Once the laughter subsides, you inhale fondly and caress his jaw with one of your hands.
“Me, too,” you admit.
A full blown bunny smile greets you and Jungkook nuzzles his nose against yours, making you giggle and blush a rosy pink hue. When your feet are on the earth again, you head for the kitchen, but Jungkook stops you with a hand to your forearm.
“Can I…” Jungkook begins to ask, his eyes glancing towards your stomach.
“Can you what, Koo?”
“Can I, ya know, touch?”
Looking down at your stomach, which is still identical to its normal size, you raise an eyebrow at him, but find yourself nodding yes anyway.
He giggles delightfully and places his palm over your abdomen, where soon enough you’ll have a baby bump.
“Man, this is fucking awesome.” You find yourself chuckling at his excitement over literally nothing at all yet. “Can I come to your doctor’s appointments?”
“Of course, I wouldn’t want to go to them without you,” you answer. “I still have to make the first one. I only took the tests a couple hours ago.”
“Were you alone?” He’s frowning as he asks, regret evident in his tone.
“Usagi was there.”
Jungkook scoffs, chuckling knowingly as he shakes his head and follows you into the kitchen.
You eat together as though you didn’t just deliver life alternating news. Which honestly, is the only outcome that ever would’ve come to fruition. Perhaps the staggering emotions of finding out you’re pregnant made you forget just how much you two love and care for each other. Your friendship is backed by nearly three decades of time spent together, and even something as massive as a baby can’t shake that foundation.
What might shake the foundation of a house is the screams of joy your mothers are going to let out when you tell them. They’ve been begging you for a shared grandchild since you graduated college.
Jungkook is supportively holding your hand as you two stand on the front porch of your house, which is conveniently down the street from his house, because that’s just how close your parents are. You can’t blame them, you’re sure you and Jungkook will be the same one day, especially now.
The memories of your childhood are flooding through your mind while you stand in the familiar location. It gets you thinking about all the new memories you’ll make with your own child one day.
Releasing the tension from your neck, you nod at Jungkook to let him know you’re ready. He returns the gesture and lets go of your hand to knock on the door. Unsurprisingly, it’s his mother’s face who comes into view from the other side of the screen door.
“Oh, Kookie! What are you two doing here?” She asks cheerfully.
“What are you doing here, Mom?” Jungkook asks as he hugs her.
“Oh, you know I practically live here.”
You laugh, knowing how right she is, and give her a big, bear hug. Her comforting presence always eases your anxieties, especially now when you’re worried about their reaction to your news.
She guides you through the house as though it’s her own and leads you into the kitchen where your mom is cooking dinner. You greet her with a hug and kiss on the cheek as she stirs the pot on the stove. Jungkook follows suit, resting his head on her shoulder as he hugs her side.
Your mom tells you she’s nearly done and to go sit. She joins you a few minutes later after turning the stove off and removing the food from the heat.
“Seriously, kids, what did you come all this way for?” Jungkook’s mom asks once you’re all sitting around the kitchen table.
“It’s not that far,” you say.
“No, but you two never show up unannounced like this,” your mom states.
“We have something to tell you,” Jungkook says.
His hand finds yours under the table and gives it a comforting squeeze, out of the eyesight of your mothers. Your petrified eyes flicker towards him, but he just nods and smiles reassuringly at you. You lick your lips and sit up as a way of giving yourself a moment of reprieve before you change the entire atmosphere of the home.
“I’m pregnant,” you announce. “We’re having a baby.”
“WE?” They scream in unison.
You instantly lose all their attention. They’re too busy screaming like school girls while clasping their hands together and shaking them in excitement. You and Jungkook share a sideways glance and have to suppress a laugh.
“When did this happen? How long have you been dating?” Your mom asks.
Both your faces pale at her question, not thinking far enough ahead to prepare for these types of inquiries.
“Um, we’re not,” you tell her.
“What do you mean, you’re not? How did you get pregnant then?”
Jungkook awkwardly clears his throat and messes with the collar of his shirt as tension fills the room. Never in a million years did you think you’d be talking about your and Jungkook’s sexscapades with your moms.
“We just hooked up, a one time thing,” you answer.
“So, you’re not together?” His mom wonders. You both shake your heads, hating the look of disappointment that crosses their features. “Are you gonna try?”
“Maybe… maybe one day, Mom,” Jungkook answers. “But right now we just wanna focus on being the best parents we can be.”
They reluctantly accept his answer before moving onto all the nitty gritty details like asking when your next appointment is, if you’re going to find out the gender, etc.
The four of you eat dinner together but unfortunately, your dads are away on a fishing trip together, so you don’t get to tell them the news tonight. Your moms promise to relay their reactions to you through the phone upon their return.
With your parents out of the way, your friends are up next to bat, but you don’t expect that announcement to go as well as this one.
Your first gynecologist appointment is the following week, and you and Jungkook both take the day off from work so you can go together. It’s pretty nerve wracking, but you’re mostly excited to see the first ultrasound pictures of your little peanut.
Jungkook drives you to the appointment in his black Mercedes Benz and it lowkey makes you feel like his knocked up sugar baby. He didn’t grow up with money, so he’s still humble, but he definitely enjoys splurging on his choice of car, if anything. It’s certainly not a bad thing to be having a kid with someone who’s financially well off, but you hate taking advantage of Jungkook’s wealth even when he offers.
He reverses the car into a parking spot, his arm moving to the headrest behind you as he looks over his shoulder to fit in the space. Upon exiting the car, you come around the hood where Jungkook is waiting for you with his hand out. You take it without a second thought and lace his fingers with yours as you walk into the dauntingly large medical building together.
Your foot rapidly taps against the elevator as it inches up to the third floor. When the doors open after what feels like an eternity, the office can only be described as a haven for expecting mothers.
Everywhere in sight there are women with swollen bellies of varying degrees, most of them accompanied by their doting partners. As you scan the room, you notice one thing in common with almost all of them; they all have big, shiny rings on their fingers.
You pout instinctually, green envy coating your insides. It’s not as though you’ve been hunting for a husband, it’s honestly been the last thing on your mind, but you’d be lying if you said you aren’t jealous they have spouses and you have a baby daddy. You love Jungkook, more than anything in the world, and there isn’t anyone else you can imagine having a kid with, but it’s not the same as these men and women looking at their pregnant partners like they hung the stars in the sky.
Jungkook notices your unintentional scowl and tugs on your hand to grab your attention. He raises an eyebrow at you, but you just shake your head and proceed towards the reception desk.
“Hi, an appointment under Jeon,” you tell the woman behind the desk. You hear Jungkook make a noise of curiosity from beside you. “Figured we should do everything under the baby’s last name, it’s simpler that way.”
“The baby’s gonna have my last name?”
His eyes sparkle with wonder and your heart soars.
“Yeah, you’re the dad, Koo.”
“I know, but I thought since we aren’t together —”
“No,” you cut him off. “It’s baby Jeon, a hundred percent.”
He smiles so big his eyes disappear and his bunny teeth make an appearance. You roll your eyes affectionately before turning your attention back to the receptionist as she hands you a clipboard with some paperwork to complete.
Both of you have to call your respective mothers at one point while filling out the extensive medical history forms. Once the twenty or so pages are complete, Jungkook returns it to the receptionist before joining you again in the waiting room. You sit with identical bouncing knees as the minutes tick by in heavy anticipation.
When your name is finally called, the two of you leap up and hurry over to the nurse who’ll lead you to the observation room.
They take some vitals, draw your blood for the formal pregnancy test, and go over the paperwork, getting the more mundane, administrative details out the way before handing you a gown and instructing you to lay down for the ultrasound.
Jungkook excitedly rubs his palms together and stomps his feet when the nurse leaves and you get ready to see your baby for the first time.
Ever the gentleman, he looks everywhere but at you as you strip to put the gown on, which is so adorable you almost combust. He put a baby in you and yet he’s respectful enough to look away when you undress in front of him, what a fucking doll.
Your feet tap an unknown melody against the stirrups as you wait and Jungkook scrolls on his phone absentmindedly. The doctor alerts you with a short knock before opening the door and popping her head in.
“Hi, you guys,” she greets you. She shakes Jungkook’s hand and then yours before rolling a stool over to sit between your legs. “How are you both doing?”
“Good.”
“Great.”
“Good, good,” she smiles. “So, great news, you are indeed pregnant! Based on your hormone levels it looks like you’re about eight weeks along.”
Even though you know the exact date and time your baby was conceived, the sensual moment permanently etched into your memory, and it’s impossible to be anything else besides divine intervention, you still sigh in relief over everything lining up as it should.
“Before we get to the ultrasound, I just want to go over a couple things that I always do with new parents, alright?”
“Sure,” you agree with a smile.
“Okay, we won’t be discussing labor and delivery until you’re a little farther along because there’s a lot to take in at first and it can be pretty overwhelming,” she explains. “I just want to make sure you both are in a good place, have everything you need from me, and availability to any resources you may need during this time.” She looks at you expectantly and you nod your head to convey you understand. “Alright, so tell me a little bit about yourselves.”
You gesture towards Jungkook and he points to his chest with his hand. When you nod, he clears his throat and sits up straighter.
“Hi, Jungkook, she calls me Koo,” he starts. “I’m a head video game designer and have a house just outside the city. I have a Doberman named Bam. I box in my free time… not sure what else you need to know.”
“No, that’s great,” she reassures him. She turns her attention to you.
“I’m Y/N, but he calls me Bambi, and don’t ask, we can’t remember why,” you laugh. “I’m an administrative assistant and rent an apartment in the city and have a munchkin cat named Usagi. In my free time I read, mostly.”
“So, you two don’t live together?” You both shake your heads. “Are you exes, just haven’t moved in together yet, something else?”
“Best friends,” you tell her. Then, because it’s confusing for most people that you’re pregnant with your best friend’s baby, you continue. “We decided to have some fun one night and now we’re gonna be having fun together for the next 18 years.”
She laughs lightheartedly at your story.
“Alright, I like the sound of that. You’re supposed to be going through this with your best friend, anyway,” she says. “How long have you known one another?”
“I was strapped in a baby carrier to my mom’s chest in the hospital room while she was being born,” Jungkook states.
“Oh, wow.”
“Yeah,” you add.
“Well, that’s great, you two! You’ve got a long history together and that can only make for wonderful teamwork.”
There are some more details you discuss regarding the first trimester and the vitamins you’ll be taking. You go over the common symptoms for this time frame and how best to remedy them. Once that’s settled, she finally pulls out the ultrasound machine and you get jittery just from the sight. You’re so eager to see your baby and when Jungkook joins you by your side, he radiates the same energy. He’s sitting to your left now and you bend your arm up to hold his hand. Jungkook smiles at your actions and clasps his hand around yours with a tight squeeze.
Jumping when you feel the cool gel on your skin, you ignore the novel sensation and wait impatiently for the image of your baby to appear on the monitor.
Before you see anything, a steady, rhythmic thumping plays throughout the room.
You and Jungkook gasp in unison.
“And that’s a heartbeat,” the doctor says with a big smile.
Jungkook rests his head on yours and your free hand wraps around to tousle his hair affectionately.
The visual on the screen doesn’t make much sense at first, but then the doctor pauses her movements along your abdomen and clicks the keyboard to take some still shots.
“So, this is your baby,” she says while pointing to the small peanut shape amongst all the black and white fuzziness. “They’re about the size of a kidney bean right now.”
You giggle while glancing back at him. His starry eyes are shining and glossy while he admires the monitor showing him his future child.
“Are you two going to find out the gender? That will happen at your twelve-week follow up.”
“No, we’re gonna keep it a surprise,” you answer.
“Great choice, it’s always so fun that way.”
She points out a couple more things on the ultrasound before turning the machine off and printing the pictures she took, making sure to print two copies so you and Jungkook can each have one.
When you peek at him once the doctor leaves so you can get dressed, he’s staring at the photos while his thumb gently traces over the shiny paper right where your baby is. You feel tears forming in the corners of your eyes, but keep them under control with a sniffle and scrunch of your nose.
TWO
You have two main friend groups, one which is mutual with Jungkook, consisting of six other guys and three girls besides yourself, and another group of all girls, four of them in addition to you. Sometimes you mix the groups, and they all get along just fine, some better than others, wink wink, but usually you see them on separate occasions.
Tonight is monthly wine night with your girls, which, of course, you won’t be partaking in, although you plan on faking it.
You’re unsure about telling your friends just yet. It’s been nice having this sweet little secret just between you and Jungkook, thoroughly enjoying the whispers of excitement you share as you admire your miniature baby bump together. Of course, that enthusiasm is shared between you and your mothers who message you daily for updates.
The bump forming over your womb isn’t noticeable in the slightest unless you’re wearing something abhorrently tight, and even then, you look bloated at best. So, you can easily get away with hiding your little bundle of joy for a few more weeks.
It’s a fact the girls will be absolutely ecstatic for you and completely supportive, so it’s not fear holding you back. Maybe judgment? The circumstances of your pregnancy are far from ordinary and you don’t want a lecture from anyone regarding your questionable choices. Your friends adore Jungkook, since they’ve known him as long as they’ve known you, and they’re fully aware of how wonderful he is, but being a friend and being a father are two very different things and it wouldn’t be totally unreasonable for them to have doubts.
Grabbing some wine to pass from the corner store, you drive to Nayeon’s place just up the road. The five of you rotate hosts monthly and tonight is her night. You won’t have the pleasure of hosting again for another four months since your turn was last month. You’re bringing wine along to keep suspicions to a minimum, and you plan on filling your glass with some sparkling grape juice you also snagged.
When you arrive, Jihyo and Mina are standing by their cars cackling at something on their phones. As you exit and lock your car with a click, you wave and approach the laughing banshees with a smile.
Their faces shine bright when they see you and enthusiastically return the wave.
“Bitch, it’s only been a month and I missed you so fucking much,” Mina cries as she pulls you in for a crippling hug.
“Are you drunk already?” You question due to her out of character language and how she’s slumping against you.
“Nooo.”
“Don’t worry, I drove her here,” Jihyo, ever the mom friend, assures you.
You enter Nayeon’s apartment as a trio, her door already unlocked for the occasion, as you update each other on surface level things like work and hobbies.
Nayeon and Tzuyu are in the kitchen with a glass of wine already in hand while they gossip about something. You know they’re gossiping because their expressions are dramatically shuffling through different emotions like shock, confusion, and disgust.
They wave excitedly when they notice your entrance and quickly finish their conversation before joining you.
Jihyo places Mina delicately on the couch and instructs her to stay still so she can grab her a glass of water. You follow Jihyo into the kitchen, peering over your shoulder at your other friend who’s now lackadaisically swaying side to side.
“Ji, why is Mina drunk off her ass right now?”
Jihyo sighs as she grabs a cup and glances towards the living room to visually check on the topic of your conversation.
“Her and Mingyu broke up.”
“No!” You gasp, your hands covering your mouth in disbelief. “Did he dump her?”
“She won’t tell me! She just sits on my bed and cries for hours.”
Jihyo and Mina are roommates, but Mina has been hoping to move in with Mingyu for a while now and was merely waiting for him to ask.
“Oh no, my poor girl.”
“I’m hoping tonight will help and maybe she’ll finally open up about what happened,” Jihyo says. “You wanna try my wine?”
“Oh, no, I’ve got my own,” you tell her and show off the bottle of fake alcohol you peeled the label off of.
She recognizes your answer with a nod before heading back to Mina. By the time you return with her water she’s relaying the information to Nayeon and Tzuyu through tears and slurred sentences.
You hug Tzuyu from behind and she warmly wraps her arms around your own to reciprocate the affection. After repeating the embrace with Nayeon, you take a seat on her armchair and pour the grape juice into the wine glass she left out for you.
The five of you update each other like always, since that’s the main purpose of these get-togethers. It’s your sacred time to dive into the messy and dirty details of your lives over the last month.
Mina is unanimously nominated to go first once she’s consumed a couple glasses of water to sober her up a bit. She explains how her and Mingyu, her boyfriend of nearly four years, broke up because he isn’t ready to settle down. Apparently it was mutual, but she’s still head over heels for him and is having a terrible time trying to move on.
The four of you hold her while she cries until eventually, she tires herself out, and you move on to Tzuyu.
The conversation circles through everyone until you’re finally the center of attention. There’s a piece of you that still wants to stow away your secret for a little while longer, but you’re also so excited for them to share in your joy that you can barely stand holding it in.
“Okay, so, technically this happened two wine nights ago, but I wasn’t ready to tell you guys just yet,” you begin. You suck in a breath through your teeth and take a sip of your drink even though there’s no liquid courage in the glass. “Jungkook and I hooked up.”
The gasps from your friends are so loud you think they sucked all the air from the room.
“No fucking way.”
“I freaking knew it would happen one day!”
“Oh my God?”
“Please tell me he’s got a big dick, I just know he has a big dick.”
You laugh into your glass at the multitude of different reactions before continuing. Sighing in content remembrance, you lean forward and rest your elbows on your knees.
“He’s. Fucking. Huge.”
Somehow, their gasps this time are even louder.
“No, no, you need to spill right fucking now. I want every dirty fucking detail, baby,” Nayeon says.
“There honestly isn’t that much to tell. We were watching a movie, he brought it up, it happened, bada-bing bada-boom,” you state.
“Are you two together now?” Jihyo asks.
“No,” you shake your head. “We just wanted to see what it was like, you know?”
“Bitch,” Tzuyu scoffs. “You just told us your ungodly handsome, sweet, filthy rich, jacked as fuck best friend has a huge dick and you’re gonna look at me and say it was a one time thing?”
“You guys know it’s not like that with us,” you respond. “I love him, like, with everything in me, and obviously, I know how attractive he is, but I don’t get butterflies around him or think about him first thing in the morning.” You sit back in the chair. “The love I have for him is so much greater than romantic love. I mean, never say never, but we’re both completely content with the way we are.”
“Hear hear,” Jihyo says with a clink of her nails against her glass.
Nibbling on your lip, you count the bubbles floating in your drink as you decide whether or not you’re ready for the actual reveal.
“There is… more, though,” you quietly admit. Everyone leans in and you shake your head back and forth to prepare for the biggest confession you’ll ever make to them. “I’m pregnant.”
The gasps this time are so volatile two of them start coughing and Jihyo walks her ass straight out of the room with a hand over her mouth.
“Shut the fuck up right now,” Nayeon snaps.
“He knocked you up?” Mina’s drunk ass shouts.
“Mmhmm.”
“Are you… happy about that?” Tzuyu tentatively asks.
The massive grin forming on your face reveals your answer before you can give it, and you start nodding overdramatically while you giggle.
“Oh my God! You’re pregnant!” Tzuyu cheers now that she’s aware of your excitement.
“You’re gonna be a mom!” Nayeon claps.
“We’re gonna be aunts!” Mina adds.
Jihyo returns to the room with fresh tears on her cheeks.
“Ji,” you coo at her.
She hiccups out a weak chuckle as she pulls you into her for a bear hug. The other girls follow suit and surround you until the five of you are basically cuddling in the middle of Nayeon’s living room. Suddenly, someone starts jumping and the force shakes the floorboards as you all join in and chant “yay yay yay” on repeat.
The whimsicality of girlhood never fails to paint a smile on your face.
The following weekend you have plans with your other friend group. You usually rotate through a few different activities you all enjoy and tonight is karaoke, which is one of your personal favorites.
Jungkook gets ready at your place so you can eat dinner together beforehand since the food at the karaoke bar is stupidly overpriced. He never fails to remind you he can afford it and is more than willing to pay for your meal, but you don’t like using his money unless it’s absolutely necessary. You’re a big girl who can pay for herself and he understands your desire for independence.
You’re at the vanity finishing your makeup when he enters with another bowl of rice he grabbed after finishing your meal. He takes up purchase on your bed and eats absentmindedly while his eyes follow the movement of your wrist coating your lashes in mascara.
The feeling of his stare creates goosebumps on your skin and an involuntary smile appears in the mirror. No doubt your foundation hides the blush springing forth as well.
“You look pretty, Bams,” he compliments.
“Thank you!”
The now empty bowl meets your nightstand with a clank as he moves to stand beside you. He leans down until you’re side by side in the mirror and gives you his cheesiest smile. You snort at his antics and continue to giggle while dropping your mascara into the pile of other makeup tools.
“Cute,” you tell him.
He smiles successfully and extends his hands towards you. You graciously accept his offer and stand to your full height. Just as you’re heading for your closet to grab shoes, Jungkook ensnares your wrist and eyes you hopefully. Raising an eyebrow at his actions, you wait for him to speak his mind.
“Can I see it?”
The eye roll is automatic at this point.
“Koo, my baby bump is not any bigger than it was a few days ago. It’s barely a bump as is! I could eat pasta and grow bigger than I am now,” you tell him.
“It doesn’t matter, I just like knowing they’re in there,” he says with a huge smile. “My little kidney bean.”
“They’re a plum now, remember?”
Jungkook just stares you down expectantly rather than responding. Begrudgingly, but still with a smile on your face, you push your jacket away so he can see the barely noticeable hump over your abdomen. He giggles, his feet taking turns leaving the floor, and places both hands on you, caressing your womb ever so gently.
“My little plum,” he sighs happily.
You're so utterly endeared by him and his nature that it makes you sick.
Once Jungkook is done holding the little plum, you leave to meet your friends at the karaoke bar.
Throughout the drive you discuss whether or not to announce the pregnancy to your friends. Jungkook knows you told the girls, and was unnecessarily smug about their interest in his size, but your mutual friends are another animal entirely.
Everyone met at one point or another during college and by graduation you’d become one massive, conjoined group of lovable idiots. All eleven of you are extremely close, even if the bonds you share are unique to each individual pair. You know things about one another no one else does and they’re always the first people you tell about good news.
Jungkook is more anxious than you about telling them, especially since he’s yet to let the cat out of the bag to anyone besides your parents. He’s the youngest among the boys and his biggest fear is disappointing them. Not that they would be, because even though they're a group of seven men, they’re the kindest people in the world, but Jungkook’s always been sensitive about their opinion of him because he idolizes them so much.
By the time you reach the bar you’ve mutually agreed to hold off for now and proceed to exit the car together. Jungkook instinctively places his hand on your lower back as you walk in and a hostess tells you which room your friends occupy.
Upon opening the door to the private karaoke suite, you’re met by the booming sound of cheers from all nine people packed inside. Everyone rises from their seats to hug you one by one before letting you settle into the couch across from the karaoke machine and mini stage.
“What are you drinking tonight?” Yunjin asks you as she takes the seat to your right.
Jimin, Hoseok, and Yoongi are already flipping through the songbook next to the stage for the perfect opening song.
“Can’t, I’m Koo’s designated driver for tonight,” you tell her.
“We’re gonna be here for hours like always, you should have one, at least,” she says.
“Maybe,” you say with an appreciative smile.
Lying to the people you love most isn’t exactly easy, especially when you already suck at it, but Yunjin seems to take you at your word and returns her focus to the opposite side of the room.
The opening beats of an R&B song fill the air and you turn your attention to the three jackals on stage as they belt their hearts out together. You admire them with a massive grin and are thoroughly impressed by how they manage to make complete fools of themselves while still hitting all the notes.
The other girls join you sometime during the bridge, Chaewon taking the empty seat by you while Eunchae goes next to Yunjin. Eunchae tells everyone she got a promotion at work, so you clink your glasses together to cheer for her, yours being filled with cola instead of alcohol.
“Here, try my drink, it’s so good!” Chaewon says as she passes the glass to you. You shake your head and tell her the same lie you told Yunjin. Unfortunately, Chaewon is less forgiving than your other friend. “It’s just a sip, girliepop!”
You shoot her a warning glance, and luckily, the two other women are distracted by Namjoon and Jin’s soulful duet on stage. Due to your decade long friendship, you and Chaewon share the unique ability to speak without any words, and your silent conversation goes something like this.
You, glaring at her with your head tilted. Don’t.
Her, sitting back a little with her eyebrows raised. Bitch?
You, nodding minutely a couple times. Yup.
Her, eyes wide with a hand on her chest. You’re pregnant?
You, nodding while staring her down. Can you fucking believe it?
Her, brow creasing and slowly shaking her head. Who the fuck is the dad?
You, holding up a hand to block the view from the others while pointing at Jungkook who’s sitting across the room. Jungkook.
Her, hand over her mouth, eyes bulging out of her head. You’re fucking joking!
So, that’s how Chaewon finds out, and your final signal to her is your pointer finger pressing against your lips so she knows this is still a massive secret.
Jungkook and Taehyung take the stage next, and they’re always an entertaining pair, so you both pay close attention. It’s debatable whether that was a good decision, because the rest of you end up with aching cramps from the intense fits of laughter. You're all desperately clutching your stomachs as the two of them jump around and sing in each other’s faces to a song that does not call for that type of choreography. You’re 99% sure it’s a breakup song from a K-Drama.
You’re still wiping the tears from your eyes when Eunchae speaks up breathlessly.
“God, I don’t know why, but this reminds me of when the boys performed in the university talent show,” she states.
“Oh shit, I totally forgot about that,” Yunjin responds.
“Wait, what are you guys talking about?” Jimin says as he sits next to Yunjin.
“Don’t you remember? You guys wore those hockey jerseys and covered that 90s song,” you tell him. “It was so good!”
Jin nods from the other side of the couch and starts laughing as he remembers the performance.
“That was so long ago! I remember it being super fun, though,” he says.
“Please don’t bring that up, that was the most embarrassing day of my life,” Yoongi groans.
“Oh please, Min, you secretly loved it,” Chaewon teases him.
You gasp when you realize it’s definitely still stored somewhere in your phone. Pulling the device out of your pocket, you scoot over so Jungkook can sit next to you while you scroll through your camera roll from almost ten years ago. Taehyung joins you and leans over Jungkook’s shoulder to see as well.
“Found it!” You squeal.
Unable to resist reliving the memory, everyone gathers behind you to watch. Your previous fits of laughter make a gnarly comeback as you marvel at the younger versions of them dancing and singing their little hearts out. They look like babies in comparison and it makes you swoon.
“That was literally another lifetime,” Namjoon says once the video is done playing.
“Man, we were so fucking cool,” Hoseok states proudly.
“Jungkook, you should wear your hair like that again,” Yunjin says. “You looked fucking hot.”
“Fuck yeah he did, rumor has it Kook lost his virginity that night,” Taehyung jokes as he squeezes Jungkook’s bicep.
“Yo! Shut the hell up, I lost my virginity in high school,” Jungkook retorts. He takes a swig of his drink and chuckles against the glass. “It was the first time I fucked raw, though.”
“Clearly not the last,” you say under your breath.
Jungkook turns to you with his eyes bugging out and you have to stifle your laugh with your hand. Resting your forehead on his shoulder, you gain control of your laughter and whisper a halfhearted apology to him.
“Ok, girlies, let’s fuck this shit up,” Chaewon annonces.
Yunjin and Eunchae both chug the last of their drinks before grabbing each of your hands so you can take the stage together. You diligently flip through the songbook to find the perfect one while the guys converse about a recent video game release. Gasping when you spot a familiar song title, you point to the page and eye the girls with a mischievous smirk.
“Wait, don’t we know the dance for this?” Yunjin asks.
You and Eunchae nod together.
“Oh, we are gonna leave these men fucking gagged,” Chaewon states before plugging the selection into the karaoke machine.
Chaewon hits the nail on the head, because as soon as the song begins and you start shaking your asses like a bonafide girl group, the men go insane. The seven of them act like they’re your biggest stans who paid for a ticket just to see this.
Hoseok and Jimin stand to the right of the stage throwing invisible money over you all, while Taehyung and Jungkook are sitting on the end couch spanking the air back and forth. Yoongi is covering his eyes with his hand while he shakes his head, but he’s still peeking at your performance between his fingers. Namjoon is bent over with his elbows on his knees and his hands under his chin like he’s trying to analyze the way your asses bounce. Jin stands with a glass in each hand as he dances along and screams your names in a repeating chant at the top of his lungs.
When you finish the show stopping performance, all of them are almost as breathless as you from cheering so much.
“Fuck, why am I hard right now?”
“That was spectacular.”
“You guys were so good!”
“I think I just came.”
“Amazing, bravo.”
“Encore!”
“Remind me why we’re all just friends?”
All four of you are panting as you hop off the stage and attempt to slow your racing heartbeats. Jimin notices you don’t have a drink and goes to hand his glass of vodka cranberry to you.
“Here, you look like you could use this.”
Just as you’re about to wave him off and reject his offer, Chaewon interrupts.
“Y/N can’t have alcohol,” she states.
Eyes blowing wide, you glare and wordlessly scold her with your facial expressions, throwing your hands up incredulously for good measure. Poor Jungkook looks like a deer in headlights since you didn’t get the chance to tell him she knows.
“Why not?” Yoongi asks from across the table.
“Are you okay? Nothing’s wrong, right?” Yunjin adds.
“No, no,” you answer with a nonchalant wave of your hand. “Just this new medication I’m on.”
“Which one? Prenatal vitamins?” Eunchae jokes as she takes a drink. Your lip catches between your teeth as you look at her with wide, worrisome eyes. Her expression shifts into shock when she notices your face over the rim of her glass. “Holy fuck, I was joking. Y/N, are you pregnant?”
“Um… yes?”
The eight people in the room who weren’t previously aware inhale simultaneously to berate you with questions, but are all stopped short by Taehyung speaking first.
“Who the fuck put a baby in you?”
Gnawing on your lip as your mind scrambles for an answer, your eyes flit to Jungkook for support, but his face is paler than a ghost. You reluctantly accept your fate and sigh in defeat.
“J… Ju… Jungkook did.”
All hell breaks loose.
You’re fighting off Eunchae, Yunjin, Namjoon, and Hoseok with your hands up in surrender as you vigorously shake your head back and forth. Jungkook is slowly sinking into his seat with his arms out in defense as Jimin, Taehyung, Jin, and Yoongi descend on him like a pack of ravenous wolves. Everyone’s screaming voices are louder than any of the singing tonight and if someone took a picture of the room it could only be classified as a goddamn renaissance painting.
Once the initial shock wears off and Jungkook finally comes to his senses, he shakes his head to collect his thoughts and stands up.
“Everyone, shut the fuck up! My bun is in that oven and I don’t need you assholes stunting their growth with your screaming,” he shouts.
“Oh, please don’t refer to me as an oven, Koo,” you grimace.
“I didn’t mean it that way, Bams.”
“Yeah, but —”
“Hey!” Eunchae interrupts you. “Lovebirds, you wanna fucking tell us how you got knocked up?”
Jungkook clears his throat.
“Well, Eunnie, you see, when a mommy and daddy love each other very mu — AH!”
Jungkook’s mock explanation is cut short by him ducking to avoid the couch pillow Eunchae chucks at his head.
“Be fucking for real, Jeon. Why is your demon spawn in my best friend?”
“Hey, don’t talk about our little plum like that,” Jungkook frowns.
“Little plum?” Jimin and Taehyung speak in unison.
Jungkook sighs dreamily before responding.
“That’s how big they are right now.”
“It just happened!” You state. “We just fucked for shits and gigs and now we’re here.”
“You let Jungkook come in you for shits and gigs?” Hoseok asks with his signature face of judgement.
The implications of his tone make you pout and cross your arms over your chest.
“Yes, and it was very enjoyable, thank you very much.”
“Oh, ew.”
“For real?”
“Ah, fuck no.”
Chaewon fake gags with a finger in her mouth.
“Wait, wait,” Namjoon steps into the center of the room. “How is this gonna work? Are you two gonna co-parent? Switch off houses every other week?”
“I… don’t know,” you answer honestly before looking at Jungkook. He shrugs with his arms out, clearly just as clueless about those details as you. “We haven’t gotten that far yet.”
“Are you gonna find out the gender?” Chaewon asks excitedly, but you quickly shake your head and she frowns. “How am I supposed to get my future niece or nephew the perfect gift if I don’t know their gender?”
“Gender neutral?” You suggest.
You hear Jin exhale overdramatically and when you look towards him he’s downing a shot and slamming the glass down afterwards.
“What the fuck is going on?” He shakes his head and his lips make a horse-like noise. “I mean, we’re talking about Jungkook and Y/N having a baby… a motherfucking child.”
“Yeah, and they’re gonna be the best parents ever,” Yoongi states wholeheartedly.
Yoongi finds your eyes across the room, his adorable gummy smile on full display, and reaffirms his words with a nod. You return the smile gratefully, thanking him with a slow blink as you hold his eye contact.
“Are you alright? I mean, like, you’re good?” Yunjin asks you.
“Yeah,” you nod. “I’m the happiest I’ve ever been, especially now that you guys know.”
“What about you, Kook?” Taehyung asks from where he sits beside him.
Jungkook looks over his shoulder at his friend, the biggest, bunniest grin imaginable on his face.
“I’m fucking ecstatic,” he answers.
Jimin takes two large strides and hugs Jungkook’s head to his chest, ruffling his hair affectionately. Hoseok joins in next, squishing Jungkook’s cheeks between his hands and giving him adorable fish lips.
“Our Jungkookie is gonna be a dad!” Hoseok coos in his best baby voice.
Your attention is pulled away by Yunjin’s hand on your lower back. She smiles when you turn around and pulls you into a powerful embrace which you reciprocate. Eunchae and Chaewon join the hug and you rest your head on Chaewon’s shoulder. You know how hard she is on herself whenever she screws up, and this is your way of letting her know it’s alright.
When you part, you feel a tug on your hand, and before you know it Jungkook is bringing you into his lap. You giggle as he tucks you into his chest and nuzzles his face in your neck.
There’s a brief moment where it feels as though it’s just you and him, and it’s more needed than you even realized. Jungkook’s recognizably warm presence calming you down after the hectic atmosphere of the room took you for a loop.
Everyone moseys around to take a seat as the adrenaline from the news simmers. The eleven of you actually do some catching up rather than just singing and drinking, and eventually smaller faction conversations happen all around the table.
You stay on Jungkook’s lap the rest of the night with his hand resting on the outside of your thigh to keep you against him.
It’s abnormal behavior for you two, usually keeping a rather firm boundary of friendship, the time you conceived a child together aside, but you don’t question it. Maybe it’s the child in your womb wanting to be close to their father or perhaps the uptick in hormones skewing your regular emotional landscape. Either way, Jungkook doesn’t seem to mind your weight on him and neither do you.
By the time the clock strikes two in the morning, and you’ve all gone a couple more rounds on the karaoke machine, your head is resting on Jungkook’s shoulder as you flicker in and out of consciousness. He soothingly rubs your spine with his hand, making sure to add more pressure to your lower back where it’s been hurting ever since becoming pregnant. Curling into him more in response, you push your face into his neck and hum contently at the familiar scent and warmth.
“You tired, Bams?” He whispers to you, moving some hair away from your face. You answer with a single nod, your eyes already closing again from the heaviness of sleep. “Okay, let’s go.”
Jungkook helps you stand, and you hug all your friends goodbye one by one. Everyone congratulates you both again while also threatening to show up to your homes univinted unless you update them on your progress between hangouts.
Jimin changes your group chat name that very night to: Baby Jeon Official Updates Channel 💦🤭👶🏻💕
You and Jungkook leave hand-in-hand, mostly because he has to keep you upright from how tired you are. He drives back to his place since it’s closer and he doesn’t like the idea of leaving you alone when you’re this sleepy. God forbid you accidentally fall asleep on Usagi and crush her all night long. The car ride is brief, but it’s smooth enough that you fall asleep in the passenger seat almost instantly.
Jungkook carries you inside instead of waking you up, knowing you need more rest nowadays than usual. Although, if he’s being honest, pregnant with his child or not, he’d still carry you and tuck you into bed.
When you wake up in Jungkook’s spare bedroom/home office the next morning, you’re thoroughly confused, but as your sleepiness begins to wane you remember the end of the night and the events which led you here. The smell of pancakes encourages you to walk down the stairs to Jungkook’s kitchen. You’re still wrapped in his comforter when you enter and Jungkook laughs as you approach him like the Queen of bedtime.
“Morning, Bambi,” he greets you as he flips the final pancake onto the plate and turns off the griddle.
“Good morning,” you say with a tired smile.
Just then, the sound of trampling paws comes barreling towards you. Smiling broadly as you turn towards the sound, you bend down to greet the adorable Doberman who’s wagging his tail in excitement at seeing you.
“Bammie!” You cheer as you pet behind his ears. “Oh, I’ve missed you, my good boy.”
He runs around your legs a couple times before scurrying across the hardwood to bring you a bone to throw. You happily oblige him and watch in amusement as he runs away to fetch it before plopping on the couch to gnaw on the toy.
“Come eat, Bams,” Jungkook tells you as he sets two plates on his dining table.
Following his orders, you leave the comforter over the back of the couch and sit across from him to eat the eggs, pancakes, and bacon he made for you both. You eat in comfortable silence for a while until you’re both nearly done.
“Koo, I’m sorry about last night. Chaewon guessed it and then her big mouth spilled the beans. I know it wasn’t the way we wanted it to happen, but at least it’s over with, right?”
“It’s alright,” Jungkook responds before gulping down his orange juice. “I’m glad we finally did it and now everyone knows. Plus, it got me thinking about some stuff I hadn’t really thought about yet.”
“Like what?”
“Well, about what Namjoon hyung said,” he explains. “I mean, he makes a really good point. I want our kid to have a normal family life even if we’re just best friends and not romantic partners.”
“What do you think we should do?”
“I think you should move in with me.”
You choke on your orange juice.
Truthfully, there isn’t anything shocking about his statement, you just weren’t expecting it at that moment. Jungkook has a three bedroom, two and a half bath house which he owns, while you rent a one bedroom apartment. He’s been begging you ever since he bought the property to move into his spare bedroom. The two of you spend almost all your time together anyway and he doesn’t see the point in you wasting money on rent when his house is completely paid off.
The reason you haven’t accepted his offer before is because you never want to take advantage of his wealth or be a burden on him. Being best friends is one thing, being roommates is another.
Now, though, you have a biological right to be a burden on him because he stuck a baby in you.
“Are you sure?” You ask him.
“Of course I am,” he replies in a heartbeat. “I thought about it all last night and it only makes sense. I have two extra bedrooms, one for you and one for the baby.”
“But what about your home office and your gym?”
“I can move my gym equipment to the garage and my desk can easily fit in my bedroom.” You sigh and push your fork around your plate as you contemplate his proposal. “Bams, you’re gonna be the mother of my child, will you just let me take care of you for once?”
As soon as you look into his starry eyes, you know there’s no chance you’ll say no. Jungkook obviously wants to do this because he loves you and wants to make sure you and the baby have everything you need, so who are you to say no?
“Okay,” you agree. “When should I move in?”
THREE
The cardboard box in your hands is slowly slipping from your grasp as you ascend the stairs, but you’re determined to make it to the top before readjusting. You have to reach the landing before Jungkook catches you. If he sees you disobeying his instruction of sitting still, he’ll definitely blow a gasket.
You don’t know what it is with men and thinking pregnant women can’t do anything themselves. It’s still only the first trimester, and sure, your bump has grown some more, but you aren’t completely useless.
Honestly, if you weren’t so stubborn, you would’ve taken his offer of moving all the boxes into the house by himself, but your competitive nature has you lugging a box of cat toys up the stairs instead.
“Bambi! What did I fucking say?”
Dropping the box by your feet only three steps from the top, you blow your hair away from your face and place your hands on your hips.
“Fuck you, Jungkook. I do what I want.”
“You wanna look me in the eyes when you say that?”
“… No.”
“That’s what I thought.” The sound of his combat boots coming up the stairs is all you hear as he moves to steal the box from your feet. Once it’s secure in his arms, he looks at you like a teacher scolding their student and gestures to the couch with his head. “Go sit down.”
“I’m not incapable, you know?” You say with your arms crossed.
“I know that, Bams,” Jungkook states. “It’s not about that. I lift more than this in a single workout at the gym. Why should you have to do it when I’m perfectly capable?”
He’s right. You know that, he knows that, so you leave him alone on the steps to sit down on the couch with a huff.
Bam quickly joins you and lays his head in your lap as he watches his dad move back and forth through the house with curious eyes. Scratching behind his ear, you laugh at the way his tail repeatedly whacks the couch as it wags.
Usagi is still in her carrier in your new bedroom since you want to make sure everything is moved in before introducing her and Bam. You and Jungkook both agree that if they get in a fight, it’s her little munchkin ass who will be the main aggressor, especially since Bam is scared of his own shadow.
Once Jungkook’s done moving the last of the boxes, he flops aggressively into the armchair next to the couch. He pats his thigh and Bam instantly leaves your side to jump into his lap instead. Jungkook leans down to kiss his precious pup before letting his head fall back as he tries to catch his breath.
“Perfectly capable, huh?”
“Shut up.”
“You’re getting old, Koo. Soon you’re gonna be a dad and you’ll have a beer gut —”
“Nuh uh, never gonna happen. I’ll have my abs until the day I die,” he corrects you.
“Please, no you will not. You think you’re gonna be hitting the gym at 80?” You ask as you lean forward in your seat.
“Yes. My love comes from my abs, I can’t lose them,” he states.
The couch cushion indents where your head falls against it as you laugh heartily.
“What? Your love comes from your abs? What the hell does that even mean?”
“Everyone I meet loves my abs, so now they’re just like, full of love, and that’s where it comes from,” he explains unironically.
“Everyone? I don’t think that’s true,” you say with a smirk.
“No?” Jungkook gently guides Bam away and struts over to you. “You’re gonna look at me and tell me you don’t love my abs? That if I took my shirt off right now you wouldn’t go all googly-eyed?”
“Fuck, no,” you scoff.
Jungkook clicks his tongue and then lifts his shirt to engulf you under the fabric. You screech and shove at his waist, kicking your legs haphazardly like you’re being suffocated.
“Let me out of here!” You scream, but it’s severely muffled by the fabric.
“I’m sorry, what did you say? I can’t hear you,” Jungkook teases. “Ow!”
Jungkook immediately frees you and backs away after he feels your teeth sinking into his side. He rubs over the bite mark with a big pout on his face, as if he didn’t start this little charade.
You mock his expression for a moment before standing to go up the stairs and check on your furry child. Jungkook follows begrudgingly, letting his feet drag along the floor like a petulant child. When you enter your new bedroom, conveniently right beside Jungkook’s, Usagi starts meowing incessantly and scratching at her carrier. You soothe her with some baby speak and check that the door is closed before letting her out. Her little legs immediately bring her to the floor so she can explore the unfamiliar room.
She meows every couple of seconds whenever she encounters something new and you watch as she headbutts everything in sight as a way of marking the furniture with her scent. Ironically, this is all the same furniture from your old bedroom just in a different space and formation.
Hands wrap around your waist from behind and you sigh at the feeling of Jungkook’s firm chest meeting your back. Obviously, he’s forgiven you for your little retaliatory love bite.
“I’m really glad you’re here, Bams,” he tells you from where his head rests on your shoulder.
Your hand reaches behind you to sneak into his hair and scratch at his scalp affectionately. He hums and rests his cheek against your shoulder. You’d argue he picked up the mannerisms from his dog, but he’s always been touchy like this.
“I’m happy to be here,” you reply. “Nowhere else I’d rather be.”
Those words no longer apply the following day when you’re hunched over Jungkook’s toilet and spilling your guts into the bowl.
It’s a great unknown why morning sickness is called that when it happens at all hours of the freaking day. You naively believed you snuck past its clutches since you’re already on the brink of your second trimester, but apparently the wonderful symptom was just waiting until you had Jungkook’s big fancy bathroom to throw up in.
Groaning in agony, you plop back onto the tile and rest your head on the cabinet. Your throat is burning from all the regurgitation, there are popped blood vessels all over your cheeks and forehead, making you look like you have freckles, and salty tears from the effort of repeatedly emptying your stomach are drying on your skin.
You caress your baby bump with a glare, making a mental note to scold them at least once when they’re older for putting you through this.
The sound of the front door opening makes your ears twitch. Bam’s heavy footsteps can be heard barreling towards the door and then Jungkook’s voice joins in as he greets his beloved pet.
“Bambi?”
“In here,” you say through your sore vocal chords. Jungkook’s face appears in the doorway and you whimper as tears fill your eyes again. “I fucking hate you for doing this to me.”
Jungkook’s eyes widen at your current state and he instantly sinks to his knees to pull you into his arms. He holds your head against his chest as you cry from the pain and fatigue of running back and forth to the bathroom all day. Jungkook’s been out running errands all day so you’ve been all alone until now.
“I’m sorry, Bams,” he whispers into your hair. “Wish it was me instead.”
There’s no opportunity for you to reply because the familiar feeling of bile climbing up your throat forces you out of his embrace and back over the toilet. Jungkook grabs your hair, making sure to collect the shorter pieces that cradle your face, and holds it in a makeshift ponytail as he rubs your back.
Once you’re done, and after the sound of the toilet flushing disperses, you hear soft cries coming from behind you. Looking over your shoulder, you see Jungkook wiping his eyes with his shirtsleeve.
“Koo,” you call out to him.
He hiccups and attempts a brave face, smiling at you even as tears slip from his waterline.
“Sorry, you know I hate seeing you in pain,” he explains.
You frown and turn around to grab his cheeks, brushing the remaining tears away from them. It’s true you’re already well aware of his empathetic nature and have been for as long as you’ve known him.
“I know,” you say with a smile as you push his hair away from his face. “Remember that time I got bullied in middle school and was crying on the playground, and then you started crying because I was?” Jungkook laughs, his eyes closing as he remembers the moment. “I’ll never forget what you said.” You clear your throat so you can give an accurate representation of his voice. “I never suffer myself, Bambi, I only suffer when I see you suffering.”
Jungkook smiles big and laughs again at your adorable imitation of his deep timbre.
“You know, if we have a boy, I’m gonna have to tussle with him over this,” he says. “No one hurts my Bams, not even my own kid.”
Your responding chuckle is strained due to how sore your body is. Wrapping your arms around his neck, you bring Jungkook closer for a tight hug, your hands curling into the fabric of his shirt. His palm slowly moves up and down your spine in a steady cadence to soothe you until the next wave of nausea comes.
The remainder of the day is spent in the bathroom together, which is luckily spacious enough for not only you two, but Usagi and Bam who both come to join you at one point.
The nausea comes in waves, sometimes occurring multiple times back to back or alternatively with a large lapse of time between them. It holds you hostage in the bathroom for a few days, and you have to take PTO when the work week begins, but eventually the symptoms simmer to about once every couple days after your doctor prescribes medication.
Another lovely symptom you’re experiencing as of late is intense cravings for extremely specific food groups, which is why you’re currently in a screaming match with Jungkook over pickles.
“I’m not buying you pickles, Bambi,” Jungkook sternly states.
“Jungkook, you’re not the one growing a baby inside of you. If I say I want pickles, I should be getting pickles!” You shout, your feet stomping on the ground reactively.
“You fucking hate pickles!” Jungkook matches your tone.
“Yes, but pregnancy cravings don’t care about what I like or don’t like, and they’re saying they want pickles!”
“You’re not going to eat them, Bams, I know you!”
“Yes, I will!”
“You really want me to leave the house at three in the morning for a vegetable that you despise?” Jungkook scoffs in outrage. “You won’t even eat a sandwich if a pickle was on the plate because you claim you can still taste it!”
“That doesn’t matter, Koo!”
Jungkook groans and runs his hands down his face before pushing his hair back.
“I swear to God, Bambi, if I get back here, and you don’t eat that entire fucking jar, I will kick you out of this goddamn house!”
“No, you won’t, you love me too much,” you brag and stick your tongue out at him.
“Yeah, unfortunately, I do,” Jungkook admits angrily. He grumbles to himself the entire time he’s putting on his slides and slipping on his jacket to drive to the nearest 24 hour convenience store. His hand is on the doorknob when he turns back to say one final comment. “You know what the worst part about this is? Most guys in my position are at least getting some pussy for putting up with this shit, but not me! No reward! I’m doing this out of pure, unconditional love for you!”
You gawk at his remark, not recognizing the words coming out of his mouth. Jungkook has never in his life asked for anything in return, let alone imply you owe him a sexual favor.
The door slams shut before you can respond, and a cry breaks from your chest as your head falls forward. Bam hears the noise and comes to comfort you, nudging his head up against your leg like the good boy he is, but barely a minute later, his head jerks when he’s distracted by the sound of the door opening. You don’t even get the chance to look up completely before you’re forced into someone’s arms who smells a lot like Jungkook.
“Bams, I’m so fucking sorry, I don’t know what came over me,” Jungkook tells you.
His apology only makes you cry more, shoving your face into his shirt and soaking it with tears.
“That was so fucked up, Koo,” you sniffle.
“I know, I’m so sorry,” he replies. “I didn’t mean it, okay? You don’t owe me anything, Bams, especially not that.” He pulls away from you and lifts your face by your chin. “Please don’t think that I, even for a second, ever expect you to repay me for taking care of you. I do it because I love you and that’s the only reward I need.”
Wiping your tears with your shirtsleeve, you slap his chest a couple times for good measure. He chuckles because of how lightly you smack him.
“You’re forgiven,” you grumble. “Now, can you please go get me these fuckass pickles?”
Jungkook smiles and nods his head, his hand on your chin moving to caress your hair for a moment.
“I’ll buy you pickles everyday for the rest of your life if that’s what you want, Bambi,” he states.
“It isn’t. I fucking hate pickles,” you say with a smile.
Jungkook rolls his eyes and presses a kiss to your hair before waving goodbye and heading to the store. When he returns twenty minutes later, he’s carrying a couple bags of miscellaneous groceries as well as a jar of pickles.
You wait patiently for him to place the bags in the kitchen before he hands the open jar to you. The smell alone eases the craving that’s been eating away at your stomach for hours now. Grabbing one of the skewers, you pull it out of the juice and take a small bite off the end.
Instantly, your brain screams at you in disgust, and you open your mouth again to spit the piece into your hand. Realizing you now have to face Jungkook so he can say I told you so, your eyes screw shut and you turn towards him. Except, when you open your eyes, he isn’t beside you anymore, he’s walking back from the kitchen with your favorite flavor of chips in hand.
“Got these just in case,” he tells you as he swaps out the jar in your hand for the bag.
You grimace, guilt pooling in your stomach when you realize his trip out into the night was for nought.
“Koo…”
“It’s alright, Bambi. The fact that I was right makes this all worth it,” he says with a sly grin.
The chips taste like salty pieces of heaven and you eat the entire bag that night. You keep the jar of pickles for occasional sniffing because, for whatever reason, your brain loves the smell even though it hates the taste. This pregnancy is already messing with your brain chemistry more than you care to admit and it’s only the beginning.
As the weeks go on, your pregnancy continues to mess with you in the form of a different, but equally as strong, craving.
It initially hits you while you’re putting together Usagi’s new cat tower in the living room. Thankfully, she and Bam get along just fine. In fact, she’s currently lying on him while they nap together on the other side of the room.
The instructions for this contraption are annoyingly hard to understand and you’re holding the instructional pamphlet up in the air as you attempt to make out what size screw you need in the stupidly small font it’s written in.
The sound of the door opening catches your attention. As you lower the paper to see the familiar figure entering the room, your mouth suddenly dries up.
Jungkook’s coming back from his home gym which is now in the garage and the tips of his hair are drenched in sweat. His chest is rising and falling in deep pants from the intensity of his workout and the black shirt he’s wearing sticks to his chest, perfectly outlining his pecs. Then, much to your agony, he takes the bottom of his shirt and wipes it across his forehead, giving you a perfect view of his abs.
The feeling that shoots straight into your core is absolutely foreign. Sure, you know Jungkook is hot, that’s a fact of the universe no one is trying to deny. But you’ve seen him shirtless before, hell, you’ve seen him entirely naked. The bump protruding from your womb tells you that much, and yet you’ve never felt turned on by him doing something so mundane.
It makes you question why your body, and more particularly your pussy, is suddenly insatiable and the sight of him is making drool drip from your mouth where it’s fallen open in awe of his physique.
Jungkook doesn’t seem to notice your change in demeanor as he waves hello before heading upstairs to shower. Once he’s gone, your body releases its tension and you sigh in relief. Although, the feeling doesn’t entirely go away, and you end up spending the rest of the evening uncomfortably horny.
That very night you take matters into your own hands, literally. You haven’t masturbated since getting pregnant, not for any particular reason other than just not feeling the urge, but now the urge has you in a chokehold and you need to fix it.
Closing your eyes and slinking comfortably into your sheets, you pull your shorts and panties off in one go before trailing your hand down to your core. You’re still wet from earlier, no doubt because you saw Jungkook in all his post workout glory. The image of him wiping the sweat from his brow with his shirt is still on your mind when your fingers dip between your folds.
A quiet moan escapes as you move your leaking essence around with your fingertips. It’s been more than three months since you’ve felt any sort of sexual pleasure, the night you spent with Jungkook being the last time.
Your eyes roll as you play with yourself by switching between pushing your fingers into your cunt and circling your clit. The squelching sound helps to turn you on, but the entire time all you can think is that it isn’t enough. It barely scratches the surface of your sexual need and is a sorry excuse for pleasure after what you Jungkook made you feel.
Huffing in frustration, you shut your eyes again and try to forget about the world around you, but it’s only when you think back to earlier today that your pleasure spikes and you moan again.
Realizing what the trick is, you begrudgingly let your imagination, or more so your memory, run rampant. You think back to that night and the way Jungkook’s lips felt against yours, and the way his cock penetrated you so deep you were seeing stars. The memory of his deep voice in your ear makes you moan exuberantly. Your hand falls into a quick rhythm as all the memories come flooding back. Everything about that night sends you closer to the edge of ecstasy. His weight above you, the heat of his skin, his taste, his moans and grunts, the way he fills you up. All of it forces you to bite down on your fist and cry when your orgasm overwhelms you.
The aftershocks of your pleasure have you panting as you come down from the high. You feel immense relief now that your desire is satiated after a long day of feeling your thighs twitch. Pulling your hand away, you stand to wash your hands so you can finally get some rest.
Hopefully, this symptom will eventually disappear like the others and you won’t be riddled with sexual cravings through the entirety of your pregnancy.
The next morning you’re pouring yourself a cup of tea to drink before heading to work. Jungkook comes skipping down the stairs in his business casual attire, his sleeves partially rolled up to reveal his tattoos. You wave to him and push the cup of coffee you poured for him across the counter.
“Thanks, Bams,” he says with a squeeze to your arm.
This is the normal, everyday occurrence for you now, and it’s nice having a routine that works for you both. You didn’t realize how easy living together would be and you’re glad it’s finally happening. Besides the times your pregnancy has turned into a sick, desperate, crazy person, it’s been business as usual for you two even with the adjustment of being roommates.
“You gonna be home for dinner?” You ask him as he takes a sip of the drink. His brow creases and he looks adorably angry, letting you know you made it just right.
“Yeah, the deadline for the newest patch was last week so I shouldn’t be staying late,” he answers.
“I’m making your favorite, your mom sent me the recipe last week,” you tell him.
“No shit,” he says, eyebrows disappearing behind his bangs. You nod in confirmation and he enthusiastically claps his hands. There’s a brief lull in the conversation, but then Jungkook seemingly remembers something and grabs your attention. “Actually, there's something I was gonna talk to you about.”
“What’s up?” Leaning over the counter, you take a sip and wait for him to speak.
“Well, I may or may not have heard you last night and —”
The sound of you choking and spitting out your tea interrupts him.
“Excuse me?”
“I heard you, ya know, having a little fun all by your lonesome last night.” You stare at him incredulously across the island. “Surprise, surprise, the wall between our rooms isn’t that thick.”
“Koo, why are you bringing this up?” You ask. “I mean, thanks for letting me know, I guess?”
“No, no,” he chuckles. “I’m not saying it to embarrass you or anything, Bambi.” He mirrors your stance so your faces are only a few inches apart. “I was just going to offer my services in case you need something more than your own hand.”
“Huh?”
“It’s just, I mean, I’m only a room away, and I know your hormones are probably going awol and making you needy and shit. So, if you ever want to, the option is there.”
“Koo, that’s very sweet of you, but I’m not gonna use you like that.”
“Oh, yeah, because having sex with you is such a chore. Worst night of my fucking life!” You laugh and slap his arm playfully. He stands to his full height with a wink. “Just think about it, alright?”
You do think about it. Unfortunately, it’s all you can think about. It already freaked you out enough when you couldn’t get yourself off without thinking of him, and now your body is mentally somersaulting in celebration because of his offer.
It’s definitely not romantic feelings swirling inside you, because just as you told your friends, you don’t feel butterflies with Jungkook, but it’d be both impractical and impossible to deny you have sexual feelings for him. Whether it’s from pregnancy hormones or something else entirely, you clearly want him something awful. Greed they talked about in the bible type shit.
The only thing you don’t want is for him to fuck you because he’s trying to help you out. If you’re going to hook up again, you want him to want you in the same way.
Despite the mental turmoil it initially puts you through, time goes on without either of you bringing up his little offer. Your body still messes with you by making you horny at all hours of the day, but you usually just satisfy yourself before bed and all is good.
Tonight is different. No matter how hard you try you can’t bring yourself to come. Your fingers are pruny from how long you’ve been playing with yourself, but nothing is working. It’s nearly two in the morning, and although it’s a weekend, you still want some sleep.
Grunting and kicking your blankets away, you cross your arms over your chest and pout in the darkness of your room. The quiet atmosphere of the house is helpful for lulling you to sleep, but your thighs are twitching with need and you know you’ll be restless if you don’t fix it before going to bed. You sigh and sit on the edge of your bed, chewing your lip as you debate if you’re really about to do what you’re thinking of doing. Before you can overthink it any further, you stand up and throw your door open.
Usagi makes a noise of confusion from her bed in the corner of your room, so you whisper to her you’ll be right back and shut the door.
It takes you a minimum of five minutes to gather the courage to knock on Jungkook’s door. He was working late tonight on a new project and went to bed early to catch up on his sleep. Guilt pools in your stomach at the thought of waking him up for such a selfish reason, but you know he’ll scold you if he finds out you needed him without telling him as such.
The sound of your hand against the wood feels extra loud in the stark silence of the house, and it only takes a couple seconds for Jungkook to softly call for you from inside the room.
You twist the door knob and peek your head inside. Jungkook only has one eye open, and he’s fluffing his messy hair in confusion when you enter his room.
“Bambi? Is everything okay?” He asks sleepily.
“Mmhmm,” you say as you chew on your lip. “I, um…”
The embarrassment stirring within you is almost enough to bring your morning sickness back with a vengeance.
“What’s wrong?”
“I… need you,” you whisper.
Jungkook sits up, his other eye finally opening, although they’re still half-lidded with sleep.
“Need me how, Bams? Are you alright?”
“Like… sexually,” you finally answer.
His eyes open a little wider at your response, but soon enough his expression softens and he smiles warmly.
“C’mere,” he whispers, his hand gesturing for you to join him.
You tentatively place one foot in front of the other until you reach the edge of his mattress and climb in. He holds his hand out for you and once you’re close enough he grabs your waist to help you straddle his thighs.
As soon as you feel him beneath you and his chest against your own, the tension in your body disintegrates and the relief sends your forehead to his shoulder. Jungkook reacts instinctively, one hand scratching your scalp while the other rubs your back, and you whimper from comforting sensations.
“Tell me what you need, babygirl.”
“I don’t know. Nothing’s working and I… I just need relief,” you explain.
“Okay, do you want my hands or my mouth?”
You shake your head.
“You, Koo. Want you.”
Jungkook hums and combs his fingers through your hair, the hand on your back rising to cradle your face instead.
“You’ve got me, Bambi. I’ll give you anything you want.” You feel him mouthing at your jaw and breathe a sigh of relief. “Every part of me,” he whispers ardently.
After a prolonged moment of gentle neck kisses, Jungkook takes your hips in his hands to lift you and pull your bottoms down before moving his own pants out of the way. You hear the sound of him pumping his cock to get himself hard, but you’re too busy returning his favor by caressing his neck with your lips to see the motion yourself. The firm touch of his hand on your lower back guides you into the right position atop his lap. You sink down slowly, with Jungkook holding you steady as he fills you inch by delicious inch. The wetness from your earlier attempts at self pleasure allows him to slide into you with ease.
You moan unabashedly at the feeling of his thick cock inside you again, it’s warm and throbbing within your walls and you kiss the bare skin of his shoulder appreciatively. He feels like pure heaven and it’s worrisome how desperately you wish you could stay like this forever.
“Koo, you feel so good,” you moan into his ear.
While you begin kissing his neck again, Jungkook starts bouncing you up and down on his cock via his hold on your hips. The euphoric feeling the action creates must be mutual, because a pair of vibrant moans and the clapping of your skin is the only sound in the room. His noises are deeper than normal since he’s still fresh from slumber and the low tone makes your head spin.
When you eventually take over and pick up the pace, one of his hands leaves your hip to thread into your hair.
“Missed this, Bams,” he tells you sincerely. “You feel fucking perfect around me.”
Jungkook brings your face close so he can kiss you. He’s gentle with his affection, lips moving at a snail’s pace to savor the feeling of kissing you once again. Tracing your bottom lip with his tongue, you moan gratefully when he pushes it past the border of your lips to meet yours. Your arms encircle his neck as you shamelessly make out, pulling him impossibly close so his bare chest is pressing on you.
“So tight, Bams, feels fucking amazing.”
“Mm, it’s just for you. Pussy’s all yours, Koo.”
Jungkook groans aggressively and kisses you with a new wave of passion. His fingers dig into your scalp reactively and you whine, your thighs working overtime to fuck his cock into you again and again. The dual sensation of his kiss and his dick splitting you apart rattles your brain until all you can focus on are your movements.
When he notices your pace stuttering from your impending climax, he steals control again, wrapping both arms around your waist to steady you while he thrusts into you from below. You gasp and bite into the skin of his shoulder as he fucks you with everything he has.
It’s no surprise your orgasm approaches faster than usual, since you were already worked up from your previous ministrations. You welcome the familiar feeling of your abdomen and thighs tightening as Jungkook continues pistoning into you, kissing him again when you feel yourself tipping over the precipice. Running your fingers through his hair and tugging on the black strands, you pull a grunt from his lips that only serves to further your pursuit.
“M’close,” you breathe into his mouth.
“Come for me, Bams,” he replies without missing a beat.
The tip of his cock only meets your g-spot a couple more times before you come with a throaty moan, your head tipping back as Jungkook continues to fuck you through your high. His hips slow to a stop as your body relaxes and breathing levels out, so you question him with a glance.
“What are you doing?”
“You came, didn’t you?”
“Yeah, but you didn’t.”
“I’m not the one with pregnancy hormones,” he chuckles.
Your hands move from his hair to caress his jaw.
“It doesn’t matter,” you tell him. “This is a two way street, Koo. You’re not a sex toy, I didn’t come in here just for me.”
Jungkook smiles sweet as pie and kisses the tip of your nose.
“I know, Bambi,” he says. “But honestly, I think we should both get some sleep. Why don’t you stay in here with me and we can pick this up again in the morning?”
You frown, but begrudgingly agree when you notice how tired Jungkook looks.
After pulling out, Jungkook readjusts your bottoms back to your hips before tucking himself into his pants. He cuddles into his sheets with one arm resting against the pillow next to him. Gesturing with his head towards his outstretched limb, you happily take the hint and lay your head on his tatted bicep.
Cuddling with Jungkook is foreign, but the man himself is so familiar that it’s not awkward despite it being the first time. Jungkook wraps his other arm around your waist to bring you into his chest, and it’s shocking just how wonderful it feels to be entirely encapsulated by him. You hum appreciatively as comfort seeps into your very bones and makes a home in your nervous system. Without thinking, you start tracing over his collarbones with your fingertips and he kisses your cheek and temple.
You both fall asleep with ease, your quiet breaths tangling together in the limited space between your faces.
When you wake up, Jungkook is behind you, but his arm is still draped across your waist and your head remains comfortably on his bicep. You smile without realizing and cuddle deeper into his embrace, lacing your fingers with the ones resting on your stomach.
Your view upon looking down is just your intertwined hands above your small baby bump and your smile grows exponentially, your heart squeezing in your chest at the sight of all three of you together this way.
The sentimental moment is brief, because soon enough you recognize the feeling of Jungkook’s dick pressing against your ass and desire begins banging on your door and demanding you let it in. As any good human in your position should, you nonchalantly wiggle your ass and snicker to yourself when you feel his cock stiffening. The sound of Jungkook languidly groaning behind you lights a fire inside your stomach that blazes down to your thighs.
His hand squeezes yours and you feel him nuzzling his face into your neck.
“Morning,” he murmurs in your ear.
“Morning wood, more like it,” you reply.
Jungkook chuckles warmly in your ear and it spreads goosebumps across your skin like wildfire. He releases your hand to grab your hip instead, pulling you into him so you can feel exactly how hard he is. Your exhale becomes a moan when he ruts against your ass and his hand leaves your hip to reach your folds.
The second his fingers slip beneath your panties and touch your warm cunt, your mind goes to static.
“Shit, Bams, you’re fucking soaked,” he notes.
“I’ve been wet for the past two weeks straight,” you admit.
“You should’ve told me,” Jungkook says as he licks and nibbles on your earlobe. “Would’ve taken care of you.”
You whine when he starts sucking on your neck just as two of his fingers sink into your cunt.
“Yeah,” you moan. “I’m understanding how grave a mistake that was now.”
He laughs again before returning to his previous endeavor of kissing and licking your throat. His fingers move in and out of you lackadaisically, slowly stretching your hole open as he curls the digits against your front wall to reach that perfect spongy spot. You find yourself gripping his forearm to keep yourself steady as the pleasure threatens to pull you under its waves.
Once Jungkook deems you wet enough, he removes his fingers from your pussy and brings them to your mouth for you to lick clean. As you work your tongue around and between his two middle fingers you hear the rustling of pants behind you. Even though the last time was mere hours ago, your heart is already racing at the thought of him stuffing you full again.
Jungkook runs his dick through your folds and presses the tip against your leaking hole, making your essence coat his head with a pretty sheen. You moan reactively, your head meeting his shoulder while his cock stretches your velvet walls.
The fingers previously between your lips dig into the flesh of your waist as he starts rocking into you from behind. He’s doing all the work, simultaneously pulling your hips back while he thrusts into your cunt mercilessly. You’re thankful for his diligence, because your mind is going haywire from the feeling of him throbbing inside you and the veins of his cock rubbing along your walls. It’d be impossible for you to assist him with anything in this state.
He’s still worshipping your neck with his mouth while fucking you like an animal and the contradicting feeling forces your eyes into your skull.
“You’re so fucking tight, Bams. So wet… you’re making me fucking crazy.” His warm breath on your neck makes you keen.
“More, Koo, I need more of you,” you reply.
Jungkook hears you loud and clear. He holds your waist with both arms to keep you snug against him so he can thrust into you with more force, his pace speeding up in conjecture with the extra effort.
“Oh, fuck,” you gasp. “Jungkook.”
“Yeah? This what you wanted?”
“Fuck, yes, you’re so fucking big, Koo,” you whine.
He relentlessly fucks into your cunt, rolling his hips against your ass and sending his cock straight to your g-spot. Your nails make crescent moons on his arm where you’re still holding on for dear life. The other hand stretches before you to clutch the sheets like a vice for fear you’ll lose your mind if you don’t have something in your grasp.
The melody of your moans and his grunts are downright pornagraphic and serves as filthy music to your ears. There’s nothing you want more than for him to continue fucking you, and if you could keep him buried in your cunt for all eternity, you would gladly do so.
“You close?” He asks as he bites your ear.
“Yes.”
“Good, gonna make a mess of you, Bambi.”
The erotic combination of words, tickling breaths, his firm chest behind you, and the massive cock spreading your pussy apart have you going institutionally insane. Somehow, he manages to gain more speed as your orgasms near and the imminent release makes you scream. It’s barely a second later that you’re coming with a pathetic cry of his name. He follows immediately, his cum marking your walls as his own while he repeatedly fucks his seed into you.
His hips never cease their movement even once your highs wane, he just continues rolling into your cunt while his cock softens inside of you. You whimper from the oversensitivity, but even the uncomfortable pressure doesn’t make you stop him. The feeling of having him within you is too addicting to let it end just yet.
Eventually, he stops lazily fucking you, but even then he still doesn’t pull out. You hold the position until sleep brings you both back into its embrace, Jungkook’s arms securely around you while the dripping mixture of your essences pools on the bed below.
SYNOPSIS ! (what the story is about is in that link!)
word count: 3.2k
*ੈ✩‧₊˚🎐
There are a lot of things you’ve gotten good at avoiding since you started university.
Noise was one thing. You don’t go out of your way to attend parties, you don’t linger in chaotic study lounges, and you definitely don’t sit in the center of lecture halls where everyone’s packed together like concertgoers getting ready to scream their lungs out.
You’ve learned how to keep your head down, how to move without drawing attention, and how to find the small silent places in a world that never stops spinning.
That’s why your mornings always look the same.
8:00 a.m. You go to your favorite cafe and get yourself a vanilla latte.
8:15 a.m. Walk across campus, headphones in, avoiding eye contact.
8:35 a.m. Slide into your usual seat in the lecture room. Second row, left side, one seat from the edge. Safe and peaceful.
8:50 a.m. Lecture begins.
Simple. Predictable. Yours.
Until today.
You’re only five steps into the lecture hall when you spot it.
Someone’s sitting in your seat.
Well in your row. The window of empty space you’ve claimed quietly, week after week, is no longer empty. There’s a backpack slouched carelessly on the floor, legs sprawled out across the carpet, and a shoulder dipped over the backrest like the chair’s doing him a favor by existing.
You nearly stop walking.
Because even from behind, the silhouette is unmistakable.
Park Jimin.
And you? You’re officially screwed.
You know the name. Everyone does. Jimin is the kind of boy whose reputation enters a room before he does. He’s beautiful. The kind of beauty that feels like a dare. The kind of attention you don’t want, but still catch yourself glancing at.
Rumor says he’s slept with at least three different people from this class alone. Possibly more. And he hasn’t so much as glanced in your direction all semester.
Until now.
You consider leaving. You could take a different seat, even if it means sitting in the back with the loud breathers and laptop-typers. You could walk right out, fake a stomach ache, and skip class entirely. You could do literally anything other than walk down that aisle.
But your hands are already wrapped around your vanilla latte. Your bag is digging into your shoulder. And your professor doesn’t tolerate tardiness.
So, you walk.
Five steps. Then ten.
The closer you get, the more you feel his presence. His hair is pushed back in waves that look too good to be accidental. He’s dressed in a black crewneck, sleeves rolled to his elbows, a thin silver chain resting against his collarbone.
He turns when you pause beside him, a lazy smirk curling at the corner of his mouth.
“Didn’t think anyone else sat in this row,” he says. Voice low. And it sounded like the start of something you didn’t want.
You glance at the empty seat beside him. Then at him. Then back again.
“They don’t,” you reply softly. “But I do.”
His smirk deepens.
“Then by all means,” he says, gesturing grandly. “Join me.”
You sit without another word.
You feel him watching you.
*ੈ✩‧₊˚🎐
Jimin doesn’t speak again. Not right away at least.
But he doesn’t need to. He leans back in his chair like he’s at home, legs spread wide, thumb dragging idly over his phone screen. Every so often, you catch the faintest shift in his posture, a tilt of his head, a glance in your direction, a finger twitching, like he’s watching you without looking too obvious about it.
He is not subtle. And you are not impressed.
You try to focus on your screen. Lecture slides are beginning to fill with bullet points, market trends, economic theory, something about supply chain analysis. You type methodically, just fast enough to stay ahead of your professor’s rhythm.
Jimin doesn’t type at all.
In fact, you’re not sure he’s opened a single document.
You hear him yawn softly next to you and wonder for a moment, what it must be like to glide through university with that kind of ease. Not careless, but untouchable. One where things fall into place just because of who you are.
You sometimes wished you had it that easy.
“Hey,” he murmurs suddenly.
You glance over, reluctantly.
He’s still facing forward, voice pitched low so only you can hear. “You type really fast.”
You blink. “That’s what you interrupted me for?”
He shrugs, smile barely there. “It’s kind of hot.”
Your lips press into a tight line. “Don’t talk to me.”
He grins wider. “You keep saying that, but I’m starting to think you don’t mean it.”
You turn to him now, fully, letting your expression speak louder than words. “I do.”
He lifts his hands in surrender, amused. “Alright, alright. I’ll be good.”
He’s not.
Ten minutes later, he offers you a piece of gum. You ignore him.
Five minutes after that, he drops his pen. Then takes yours.
When you try to snatch it back, his fingers brush yours. Warm. Deliberate.
You jerk your hand away like he’s fire.
“Touchy,” he whispers.
“Annoying,” you whisper back.
His smile is all teeth and trouble.
And you hate the way your stomach twists.
*ੈ✩‧₊˚🎐
You barely survive the rest of the lecture. You managed to keep your notes clean, your face neutral, and your limbs tucked safely into your side of the desk. But it’s harder than it should be.
Jimin doesn’t do anything, not really. He doesn’t flirt in an obvious way or say anything overtly inappropriate. But he’s there, radiating heat, confidence, and attention like it’s second nature. Like he was born to be noticed.
And you?
You are trying desperately not to fall into his bubble.
You pack up quickly after class ends. Laptop closed. Notes stacked. Coffee cup tossed in the recycling bin. You don’t say goodbye. Don’t look back. Just move.
But you don’t even make it to the hallway before you hear it.
“Hey! Wait up.”
Your shoulders tense before you turn.
He’s walking toward you, slow and lazy like there’s no rush. Backpack slung over one arm. That same teasing smile dancing on his lips.
You fold your arms. “Do you ever stop?”
His eyes sparkle. “Nope.”
You sigh.
“I’m Jimin,” he says then, holding out a hand like you haven’t known his name since your first semester.
“I know.”
“You gonna tell me yours?”
You hesitate.
Every instinct in you says no. That you shouldn’t give him anything. You’ve heard the stories, the rumors. Park Jimin is a lesson you didn’t want to learn firsthand.
But he’s watching you like he already knows the ending. And something rebellious stirs in your chest.
“Y/n” you mutter.
His grin grows. “Pretty.”
“You should go.”
“Only if you come with me.”
You blink. “Excuse me?”
“There’s a cafe across campus. Good iced coffee. Better bagels.” He shrugs. “I’m hungry.”
“And you think I’m hungry too?”
“No,” he says, head tilting. “But I think you’re interested in me.”
You narrow your eyes. Just how high is his ego?
“I’m not,” you say flatly.
He laughs under his breath, and it’s disgustingly charming. “Then I’ll see you next class, partner.”
You freeze.
“…Partner?”
He pulls out his phone, taps a few times, and turns the screen to you.
Group 4: PARK JIMIN, L/N Y/N
The class project. The one that lasts the entire semester. The one you were dreading.
Your stomach sinks. “You have got to be kidding me.”
“It must be fate,” he says, winking.
You stare at him for a long moment.
Then you turn around and walk away.
This time, you do look back.
Only once.
He’s still standing there, smiling like he knows something you don’t.
*ੈ✩‧₊˚🎐
You don’t think about Jimin for the rest of the day.
Well. You try not to.
You tell yourself he’s just like the background noise in the halls. Unavoidable, sure, but not worth tuning into. The kind of boy who floats through life with too many numbers in his phone and not enough sincerity in his voice.
It works. For a little while.
Until you check your email.
Subject: “Group 4 - Semester Project Guidelines”
From: Professor Lee
You skim the list. Timeline, expectations, deliverables. Midterm presentation. Final paper. Weekly check-ins. The same grueling structure as every other group project, but now with the added headache of Park Jimin.
You close the tab and exhale slowly.
You can handle this. You can stay professional. You can survive one semester of proximity without getting pulled into the whirlpool of his attention.
Probably.
Your phone buzzes.
Unknown number.
You hesitate.
Then unlock it.
** :

You blink. Then frown.
Did he save your number? How did he even get it?
You:

Jimin:

You groan into your hands.
You:

You:

Jimin:

You:

Jimin:

You toss your phone onto your bed like it personally betrayed you.
This is going to be a long semester.
*ੈ✩‧₊˚🎐
Thursday comes faster than expected.
You arrive ten minutes early. You wanted time to pick a quiet corner, open your laptop, and steel yourself for whatever version Jimin decides to show up as.
You’ve seen him on campus since that first day. Laughing with friends near the art building. Leaning against vending machines like they’re props in a music video. Walking out of the business department with his sleeves rolled up and a girl giggling beside him.
He hasn’t noticed you again. Or maybe he has, and he’s just letting you think otherwise.
You pick a room with glass walls but enough distance from foot traffic to feel semi-private. You pull up the project brief. You outline a few tasks, researching presentation, slide formatting, and even sketch a rough schedule.
At 3:10, the door opens.
And there he is.
Late, of course. But somehow, still managing to look like he owns the place.
“Hey, scholar,” he says, sliding into the seat across from you like he’s been here a thousand times before.
You don’t look up. “We’re already behind.”
“Chill,” he says, propping his chin on his hand. “We’ve got time.”
You risk a glance.
He’s wearing a fitted white tee under a soft denim jacket, a chain around his neck, and an expression that says he’s more entertained by you than the actual assignment.
You shut your laptop.
“Let’s get something straight,” you say quietly. “I don’t care what people say about you, or how you act with them. This project matters to me. So if you’re going to flirt or screw around, go do it somewhere else.”
There’s a long pause.
Then he laughs.
“Damn,” he says, eyes shining. “You’re serious.”
You stare at him, unmoving.
“I like that.”
You blink. “You like that I don’t like you?”
“Kind of.” He leans forward, elbows on the table. “You’re not pretending. Most people do. Smile at me, laugh at everything I say, then talk shit the second I leave. But you? You’re honest.”
“I’m not being honest,” you mutter. “You’re just annoying.”
“Same thing.”
You open your laptop again.
“This is due in three phases. First milestone is a week from Monday.”
He nods, finally matching your tone. “Okay. What do you want me to do?”
You blink.
You’d half expected him to push back. Dodge responsibility. Fake an emergency. But he’s watching you instead, waiting for directions, like this actually matters.
“You’re good at presenting,” you say cautiously.
“Sure am,” he says with a wink.
You roll your eyes. “Then start outlining the first section.”
“Yes, ma’am.”
You spend the next forty-five minutes working side by side.
To your surprise, he’s focused. Not perfect, but present. He asks questions. Types faster than you’d expect. Doodles a little in the margins of the shared doc, but nothing disruptive.
At one point, your knees brush under the table. You freeze. He doesn’t move.
You scoot your chair back slightly. He hides a smile behind his water bottle.
*ੈ✩‧₊˚🎐
When you finally wrap up the session, your head is spinning.
Because it went fine. Better than fine, actually.
And Jimin..he was still Jimin. A little smug, a little too pretty for his own good, but also unexpectedly thoughtful. Capable. Collaborative.
As you gather your things, he watches you quietly.
“Are you always like this?” he asks.
You glance up. “Like what?”
“Quiet.”
You pause. Then zip your bag.
“Only around people I don’t trust.”
His smile falters just for a second.
Then he nods. “That’s fair.”
You think that’s the end of it. You turn to leave.
But just before you reach the door, he calls out.
“Hey.”
You glance back.
You notice him hesitate before speaking, and then he quietly shakes his head. “Nevermind.”
You don’t answer.
You just walk away.
But your chest feels heavier than before.
*ੈ✩‧₊˚🎐
You don’t think about Jimin that night.
Not exactly.
It’s more like the memory of him clings to you. His voice low and smooth, his eyes cutting sideways with something unreadable, that ridiculous smirk when he caught you flustered. It settles behind your ribs, heavy but soft, like the feeling of knowing a storm is coming before the clouds even form.
And the worst part?
You can’t even tell if you’re annoyed or intrigued.
*ੈ✩‧₊˚🎐
The days after pass strangely.
Your paths don’t cross again right away. Not on campus, not in your shared lecture, not even by accident. He’s absent for the next class, and the seat beside you stays empty.
It should feel like relief.
But it doesn’t.
You try not to look at the door when it opens late. You try not to check your phone. You try not to notice how the second-row seat next to yours suddenly feels colder.
He messages you late that night.
Jimin:
sorry i missed class
had to meet w/ my advisor
what’d i miss?
You:
Not much. Notes in the drive.
Jimin:
ur an angel
i owe u one
You:
You owe me finishing the presentation on time.
Jimin:
oh come on
i was hoping u’d say dinner 😔
You stare at your screen.
You:
That’s not happening
Jimin:
not yet
You don’t reply after that.
*ੈ✩‧₊˚🎐
You meet again the next week to work, same room, same seats.
And it’s easier this time.
There’s less tension in the air. Less suspicion in your chest. You’re not sure if it’s him who’s different or if you’re just adjusting to the strange pull of his presence.
He still flirts. But it’s not aggressive. Not forceful. It’s light. Teasing. More like he’s testing the edges of your resistance than trying to tear it down.
And he’s annoyingly good at this project.
His ideas are sharp, and he’s articulate when he presents them. He’s not afraid of speaking, not hesitant about taking the lead and he listens when you challenge him.
Really listens.
Somewhere in the second hour, he starts chewing on the tip of a pen while thinking through a citation. You don’t mean to look. You really don’t.
But your eyes drift.
And your chest does that thing again. That traitorous, fluttering thing that makes your spine straighten and your jaw tighten, like you can scare the feeling out of your body if you’re stiff enough.
He catches you.
He doesn’t say anything. Just glances up slowly, meets your eyes, and raises a single brow.
You look away first, your cheeks heating up.
He chuckles to himself.
*ੈ✩‧₊˚🎐
The moment you realize you’re in trouble doesn’t hit you all at once.
It’s slow. Subtle.
It’s in the way you start dressing a little more carefully on the days you might see him. It’s in the way you think about what to say before you open the chat. It’s in the fact that his voice, his dumb, drawling, overconfident voice is now unmistakably stored in your head.
It’s in the fact that, even when you’re not around him, you still feel like you are.
You don’t like him.
You remind yourself of that every time he texts. Every time his knee bumps yours in the study room. Every time he tells you that you’re “different” and “smart” and “the only girl who talks to him like he’s not a goddamn Disney prince.”
You don’t like him.
But he’s becoming harder to ignore.
*ੈ✩‧₊˚🎐
The rain came suddenly.
You hadn’t planned to study. The week’s been long, the assignment is mostly done, and your bed is calling like a siren song. But Jimin texts you around 7 p.m.
Jimin:
hey
it’s pouring
power went out in my apartment
library’s still open, right?
You:
It is. You need help?
Jimin:
nah. just don’t wanna sit in the dark.
u coming?
You:
I wasn’t planning on it
Jimin:
come keep me company
promise i’ll behave
You:
That would be a first.
Jimin:
pls? 🥺
*ੈ✩‧₊˚🎐
You go.
You don’t know why. Maybe it’s the rain. Maybe it’s boredom. Maybe it’s the tiny voice in your chest that’s been curious ever since he first smiled at you in that lecture hall seat.
Whatever it was, you listened to it and went.
He’s waiting near the back tables. Hoodie pulled up, earbuds in, slouched over his laptop. He looks up when he sees you and smiles like he knew you’d come.
“Hey, scholar.”
“You owe me coffee.”
He chuckles. “Next time. Pinky swear.”
You sit beside him. Close. Closer than before.
The library is nearly empty, most students aren’t desperate enough to be here on a rainy Friday night and for once, the world does feel quiet.
Time stretches differently.
You work in silence for a while. Until your screens start to dim, your shoulders relax, and the only sound is the low hum of storm outside.
Eventually, you glance over.
He’s staring ahead, but not at his screen. His eyes are soft. Distant. Like he’s somewhere else entirely.
“Jimin?” you say softly.
He blinks and turns towards you.
He doesn’t smile.
“Can I ask you something?” he says after a beat.
You nod.
“Do you think people can change?”
You’re not expecting the question.
It sits heavy in the space between you.
“Yeah,” you say quietly. “If they want to.”
He’s quiet.
Then, so softly you almost miss it.
“Even someone like me?”
You stare at him.
And for the first time, you realize that he doesn’t actually believe the answer.
But maybe he wants to.
The moment stretches too long.
You could say something. You could ask him why he’s asking. You could tease, deflect, ignore it completely.
But when the world is quiet and it’s just the two of you, alone in a forgotten corner of the library with the rain against the windows and the hum of electricity in the air, something shifts.
You don’t say anything.
You just reach out, gently, and hand him your last piece of gum.
His smile returns.
But this time, it’s different.
Softer.
Real.
And you think that you may have started to lose the battle you were never meant to fight.

“you know what? i’m done, i’m fucking done with your nonsense, i hope this stupid roof falls on your head!” your screams bounced off the walls loudly as you dragged your bags to the front door, you no longer recognized yourself.
when had it become this bad?
“i hope so too, at least that way i don’t have to hear you scream like a banshee on drugs, just get the fuck out already” yoongi huffs as he matches your vicious tone, but his chest tugs at him, begging him to move and stop you before it was too late, before you actually left and never came back. but his pride was stronger, he wasn’t going to beg you to stay, he was stubborn enough to pretend this didn’t affect him at all.
you don’t respond or even turn back to look at him one last time, you slam the door and trudge your luggage impatiently to the elevator.
yoongi couldn’t move, he watched the front door with pursed lips, he couldn’t believe that after all this time, this was how you two were going down.
summary: only fools fall for you. (fools!universe)

the first time you saw jin, it was at 4 am in the ‘24/7’ library you liked to go to. he was sitting all alone at a circular table, staring intensely at the books in front of him, his eyebrows had scrunched up and his lips were caught in between his teeth in concentration. he only strayed his eyes away from them to see you enter the room. blinking owlishly, he gives you a one over, curiously but then returns back to studying, seemingly not paying anymore mind to you.
you set your books in a table far away from his, and sat down in a huff. you don’t like being around people and even if this man is pretty, prettier than you’d like to admit, he still was no exception and you snort when you see all the sticky notes and highlighters he has out on the table.

Summary: You are not one to believe in high school romance nor any kind of romance at all. Your world is turned upside down when you had to write about falling in love in high school. Having no experience, good thing your best pal Jimin came to the rescue. He’s about to show you what falling in love is like through his broken perspective after his girlfriend just broke up with him.
genre ↠ friends to enemies to lovers (it’s more complicated though) | (high school + bet AU) | fluff, angst, smut
word count ↠ 28,758
18+ | warnings ↠ drinking, swearing, there’s a high school au (in the form of a flashback), there’s a pool and a party– stuff happens 🤭, arguing, there’s a kiss in the rain, explicit sexual content: lots of kissing, nipple play, dirty talk, softdom!jimin, spit kink, teasing, fingering, multiple orgasms, grinding, a blowjob, unprotected sex (this is fiction!).
summary ↠ When your car breaks down late at night in your hometown and the door you knock on just happens to belong to the man that was almost yours, it opens the floodgates to memories you had hoped to keep suppressed and those you’ve never forgotten about.
Jimin remembers it all too — the many words that were left unsaid between you, and the many feelings left unresolved. And now he wants to make it right.
a/n: askdhflkghs it’s here! 😋 this was supposed to be a short story (but i’m clearly incapable of that lol) inspired by the recent bangtan shoots 😍 i forced myself to keep it a short as i could so there might be some parts where it’s a bit abrupt/i don’t set the scene smoothly..? 😅 idk, also a disclaimer: the flashback is in past tense and I’m sure some of it is messed up, sorry! but on another note, i do think this might be some of the hottest smut i’ve written?!? 👀 also this is the first time i’ve written a spit kink lmao ;) a huge thank you to @noranj for beta-reading! 💓

on this rainy night, what is your umbrella?
You stood under the awning outside the building, which you were supposed to be far from as of 2 o’clock. Your other classmates were long gone, having made their way off campus through the rain by running to their cars with the protection of a coat or umbrella. None of the things you have because you continue not to be an adult and watch the news, missing the weather report that everyone else was aware of. Watching the heavy raindrops smack against the pavement, you contemplate how you’re getting home.
Should you make a run for it? A run for 30 minutes? Yeah, that’s not happening. You could call a taxi. But you’re not going to pay for that so no.
“Fuck, I’m such an idiot,” you say quietly to yourself, or so you thought.
“Jeez, that’s a little harsh don’t you think,” a beautiful deep voice says.
Startled you turn your head quickly to be met with what you could have sworn was a literal angel in disguise as a twenty-something-year-old boy. The tall boy looks away from the rain and towards you. He gives you a quick look over and sees your empty hands and smiles.
“Ah! You don’t have an umbrella. You didn’t watch the news?” he asks. You shake your head to answer him.
He smirks and nods his head while looking back out at the downpour.
“Maybe you are an idiot,” he says all too casually while shrugging, clearly teasing you.
“Hey!” you scoff out with a laugh, finally speaking.
“I mean, today is one of the worst days we are supposed to get this year! How can you not have an umbrella or at least a hood?” he laughs out loud, gesturing his hand at you from head to toe.
His laugh and your current predicament both cause you to join in. Once you both settle down the dark-haired boy looks at you with round eyes still slightly crinkled from laughter although nothing but kindness is present in them.
“How far do you live from here?” he asks with a melodic voice and an endearing head tilt to match it.
Upon first look, he may seem like someone with an edge to them; dark-coloured clothes, piercings and some tattoos. But it is ever present that there is an apparent softness to him, one that accompanied by his calm demeanour is pouring a level of comfort over you that you can not explain.
“30 minutes that way,” you point out the way to your home, “Pretty close to Bam's House Cafe.”
“Hmm, I’m headed the same way, so it looks like you're a lucky idiot,” he says shooting you a wink while opening his umbrella held in his tattooed hand.
“Gee thanks, but I’d feel more lucky if you’d stop rubbing my idiocy in my face,” you chuckle.
“I would call you by name if you told me it,” he says with a slight, dare you say flirtatious smirk that causes your breath to get stuck in your throat.
“It’s Y/N.”
“Well Y/N, I’m Jungkook. The handsome, well-prepared gentleman escorting you through this storm today,” he sends you a beaming smile that almost sends you to your grave.
He holds out the clear vinyl plastic for you to stand under it. You do just that and as you step close to him, arms brushing you’re hit with his clean fresh scent.
“Thank you again, Jungkook," you reply looking down to hide your sudden blush.
"Shall we get going?” he asks flicking his head out to the direction you earlier pointed out, and with a nod of your head, you both step out starting on the journey to your home. And so much more.
the voice that responds when you call.
The ringing in your ears finally stops when you hear the voice on the other end of the phone say, “Hello?”
But it is no surprise to you, knowing he would answer because Jungkook always did. You knew once he saw your name flash across his screen he would not hesitate to slide to answer.
“Hey,” your voice is small when you reply.
“What’s wrong?” he asks immediately concerned, because just like how Jungkook always answers, he always knows. He knows you.
“I just miss you, I wanted to hear your voice.”
“I know I miss you too. But I’ll be back in two days.”
“Ugh! That’s going to feel like forever,” a whiny sadness to your tone.
“Hey, I told you you could come with me. My mom is still upset I didn’t bring you,” he chuckles.
“Yeah, I know but taking a trip to Busan is not an option with work right now,” you sigh.
You hear him sigh as well and there is a long pause between you two.
“Then quit your job,” he states in an all too serious tone.
“What? Jungkook have you lost your mind? You know I can’t qu-“
“Sure you can! I’ll quit my own too! Then we can move out here and buy a house. We can live by the water and have a bunch of kids, it will be perfect,” his tone gets more excited as he hears your giggles pleased with your happiness.
“So what do you say, babe? Sounds good right?” he asks still joking.
“Sounds perfect,” you reply with a content smile.
And just like that you were no longer sad because Jungkook knew how to make you happy. Jungkook always knew.
the memories of seeing the same thing at the same time.
It was Monday, and although you were not as fond of it as any other person towards that day of the week, you had one thing to look forward to on Mondays. That was the one day of the week Jungkook would meet you at work and you would walk home together.
So here the two of you are walking through the park, which was a shortcut to your shared home. Your hand in his, fingers interlocked this being the beckon of light at the end of your work day. You feel him rubbing his thumb across the back of your hand and you glance at him to see him just looking off into the distance. Your usually chatty boyfriend is now just quietly at your side. You use your free hand and pull him by the elbow holding him close to your side, gaining his attention eyebrows raised in question.
“Rough day?” you ask looking up at him.
He breathes out an airy laugh through his nose.
“Yeah you know, just one of those days,” he glances back at you with a small shrug then continues.
“It was one of those days I wished I was just with you at home, just had you beside me,” he squeezes your hand, “Only me and you, the rest of the world blocked out.”
He looks down at you and softly smiles that eye smile you could never fall out of love with.
“I wish for that every day,” you reply returning the squeeze to his hand while smiling up at him.
While you share this moment you notice small white flakes landing on his raven-coloured hair. He must have taken notice too as you both look up.
You are met with flurries quickly floating down all around you two making their way to the ground.
“The first snowfall,” he states almost in a whisper.
“It's so pretty,” you say fascinated and fully entranced with the beauty of Mother Nature.
You feel his gaze on your face and turn to make eye contact. He has the most delicate look, eyes filled with adoration.
“I may not have had you by my side all day, but I’m glad I have you here right now,” he says lovingly.
And at that moment, witnessing the beginning of a new season with your love and sharing this memory, you could have sworn the rest of the world was blocked out and it was just you two.
the first time you matched each other’s pace.
Angry.
No, that’s not even the right word, enraged. Yes, enraged that is what you are feeling right now. And why were you so mad? Your boyfriend seemed to think that a guy having a friendly conversation with you, albeit a drunken one on his part but innocent, was the perfect reason to cause a huge scene in the middle of a party with all your friends and more to see.
So now here you are walking home furious with one another because you think he overreacted while he thinks you underreacted. Not only are you annoyed with him for how he acted but now you’re annoyed with yourself for wearing heels knowing you would have to walk home after a whole night in them.
Your pace starts to get slower because your feet start killing you and it suddenly feels like Jungkook is running a marathon instead of walking home. You glance up and see the distance between his back and you getting bigger and bigger. You focus on trying to ignore the pain soaring through your feet and as you continue walking with your head down staring at the shoes you have come to despise you suddenly bump into a shoulder.
You look up to your side and notice the man that was ahead of you seconds ago now right beside you.
“If you can’t keep up just say so,” he grumbles, the first words you hear from him since leaving the party.
You notice how he starts walking slower for you and does not move an inch further from your side. You continue your struggle to walk, feet pulsing more with every step.
“Ah fuck it,” you mumble to yourself as you take off your heels.
Jungkook halts and turns towards you once he notices you stopped walking. Once you start to continue you feel your heels being ripped out of your hands, as you’re about to ask what he’s doing he kneels in front of you, wordlessly telling me to get on his back.
“Kook, you don’t-“
“Get on,” he quietly demands.
You don’t argue because your feet yell at you not to. You get on his back, arms around his neck and he tucks his hands under your knees immediately standing up with ease and continues the journey home.
“I told you not to wear those damn shoes,” he says after a couple of minutes.
For some reason that comment brings a slight smile to you, as you realize that your anger has disappeared without you even being aware.
“Thank you,” you say into his neck as you tighten your arms and lock your ankles around his torso hugging him closer to you.
He adjusts his hands to your thighs as you pull your bodies closer together.
“For what?” he questions taking a peek at you.
“For trying to take care of me before and still taking care of me now,” you answer giving his neck a peck.
“You know I’ll always do that, it’s my job too. A little fight won’t stop that, taking care of you comes naturally to me now.”
“I mean it kind of has to look at our situation right now,” he continues with a breathy laugh as he squeezes your thighs to emphasize his statement.
You giggle at his response knowing the truth behind it. Jungkook has always taken care of you. You have always looked out for each other. You have always matched ourselves to each other.
did someone come to mind?
You hear the lock of the front door opening and the jingling of keys, followed by some rustling around, most likely the removal of outerwear. A few seconds later you see the handsome tattooed man you call your boyfriend walking into the living room. He smiles as he sits beside you on the couch wrapping his arms around you and kissing the top of your head. You look up at him head on his shoulder and begin to stare unconsciously as thoughts run around your mind.
“What?” he asks you with a confused chuckle.
You smile at him, “I love you.”
He gives you that butterfly-inducing eye smile and kisses you on the lips.
