BROMANCE | VKOOK - Chapter 18: Chapter 18

"Hey"
"Hi"
Taehyung let his head fall back, sitting down on the floor of his room, holding the phone with one hand and his travel bag with the other one. "Two hours", the older hummed, his smile so big that Jungkook thought he could feel the older's smile through the phone. "Two hours", he repeated, ruffling his dark hair while the younger held a pack of condoms he bought earlier, putting it at the bottom of his bag so his father wouldn't find them if he'd decide to look through Jungkook's bag.
"I'm excited", Taehyung said, his heart beating up to his chest.
"We'll be on our own for a whole week", Jungkook grinned, biting his lip as he laid back on his bed, staring up to the ceiling. "No parents, no bullies, no one who's going to annoy us-"
"I love that", Taehyung chuckled, "Just you and me."
"What?", a voice came from Taehyung's door, making the older look up from his bag when he faced his brother who stood there, lips trembling.
"Gotta go, I'll pick you up in twenty", Taehyung quickly said into the phone, ended the call and got up from the floor, staring at Jimin with big eyes, "Look-, bro-"
"I thought you weren't bringing someone along", Jimin let out breathless, "Who was on the phone?"
"No one", Taehyung hurried to say, "It was just Lia. She'll come."
"Lia is going for Yale", Jimin said quietly, "She always talked about how much she wants to go there."
"Look, I-"
"Is it Jungkook?", Jimin asked, anxiety taking over the boy. "You're taking him, not me?"
"You don't care", Taehyung said sharply, "You didn't even ask me where I want to go to college!"
"Yeah, because I know you want to go to Princeton", Jimin let out in disbelief, "You said that from childhood on. Why would I ask?"
Taehyung gulped, looking away, "We're not exactly on good terms right now, Jimin-"
"You're leaving me alone here", Jimin said, "In this big fat house! And you're taking my best friend with you-, not me"
The boy grabbed his bag and threw it on his shoulder, he couldn't deal with his little brother's shit right now, "I gotta go, Jimin. Get your act together."
"Taehyung!", Jimin's voice was cracking when his brother pushed past him and rushed towards the elevator that'd bring him downstairs. "Don't just leave me here!"
"It's only a week", Taehyung said softly, "You'll survive a week without me."
"I can't even cook a fucking meal", Jimin screamed out, running after his brother, "Take me with you, not Jungkook!"
"Just order food then", Taehyung snapped, "What's going on with you? Stop screaming!", he stared at his brother who was having tears in his eyes.
"Don't go without me-"
"Hey", Mr Kim's voice halled through the house, "Why are you kids screaming up there?"
"It's nothing, Dad", Taehyung answered and got into the elevator but Jimin wouldn't give up that easily, he just ran after him and got in there as well. "I thought you wanted to go alone, but if you take someone with you, you can just as take me along. Right? There's nothing going on with you and Jungkook anyway-, you said it's over."
"Jimin, fuck off", Taehyung pushed his brother away and pressed the button that would bring them downstairs. "It's just one week."
"Please", Jimin repeated, tears filling his eyes. "Don't leave me here-"
Taehyung ignored the younger's voice and rushed out of the elevator, hurrying towards the door but his father and his mother blocked the way, "We have guests", the woman said sharply, "Would you keep your voices down?!"
"Where are you going?", their father asked, looking confused when he saw his older son carrying a huge travel bag. "America? Princeton university? For orientation week", Taehyung sighed, "Dad, I wrote you like ten messages. And I told Mom like two weeks ago-"
"You know I was busy", Mr Kim said, shrugging, "I don't check my phone that much."
"Two weeks", Taehyung repeated, "Now look at your left hand", he said, glancing down at his father who was holding his phone in his left hand.
"You never check your phone?", the boy repeated, lifting his eyebrows. "Why don't you just say that you don't check your son's messages."
"Okay", the man lifted his arms, "Goddamnit. So dramatic. Have fun in America."
"Look", Jimin yelled at his brother, "You're leaving me here alone, with them!"
"You'll survive that", Taehyung yelled back, "Stop making me feel bad about actually doing something for myself for once!"
Their parents were already gone again, shaking their heads because the kids wouldn't stop being loud. They slammed the doors to the big salon shut to avoid the voices of their kids.
"What-", Jimin cried out, "You're always doing everything for yourself. You're an egoistic asshole!"
Taehyung gritted his teeth, "Yeah", he nodded, "I am an egoistic asshole."
And with that he opened the front door, grabbed his car keys and rushed outside.
Jimin kept following him.
"Taehyung! Come on! Jungkook's nothing but a fucking faggot! Why would you take him along?!"
Taehyung balled his fists, stopping in his movements before he slowly turned around. He stared at his younger brother in anger, "Because I'm a fucking faggot too", he spit out and then ripped the car door open.
Jimin ran after him, "I'll tell everyone if you leave me here!"
The older got in the car and shut it, rolling the window down, "I wouldn't do that to you", he said quietly, "But you do you."
And with that the boy drove off, heading straight to Jungkook's house.
The boy turned the music up, trying to stop the thoughts overcoming him while driving. Fuck, he hated this feeling.
He didn't even realize how he got faster and faster, arriving at Jungkook's house within five minutes even though it was a way for at least fifteen minutes.
Once he stopped the car, he inhaled deeply and let his head fall back.
He tried to remember what Lia would say in a moment like this, breathe- just breathe, Taehyung, yeah that's what she'd say.
The boy bit his tongue, trying to think happy thoughts to avoid getting a panic attack again.
He would be gone for a week but after that, hell would break loose here.
For fuck's sake.
He heard a soft knock on the window of his car and when he opened his eyes, he saw Jungkook's bright smile in front of it. Head tilted and lips pouted he waited for Taehyung to open the door.
Of course that's exactly what Taehyung did, wrapping his arms around Jungkook instantly. He pressed the boy close to himself, holding him so tight that Jungkook couldn't breathe for two seconds.
"Okay, okay-, I missed you too." Jungkook laughed, pulled back and pressed their lips together for a few seconds.
"What if we just never come back here-", Taehyung breathed out after their lips parted again, holding Jungkook by his cheeks while looking into his sparkly eyes.
"Don't you dare", Mr Jeon's voice made Taehyung look up. The man appeared behind his son, holding his wife's hand. "I would like to have my son back in one piece in one week-", the man said strictly.
"I was just kidding, Sir", Taehyung quickly said, bowing to the elder. "I'll take good care of Jungkook!"
"Of course you will", the man said sternly, "Not too good though", he reminded the boy and then grabbed the condoms he got from Jungkook's bag earlier, holding them up. "Don't you dare", he said, eyeing Taehyung warningly.
Jungkook gasped, "Where did you even get those!"
"From your bag, Jeon Jeongguk", Mr Jeon grumbled. "You're unbelievable."
"Dad, come on", Jungkook whined, "Stop being like this."
The old man ignored his son's plead and just kept staring at Taehyung, "I trust you, boy. You're old and responsible enough to not let anything like that happen, right?"
"Yes", Taehyung nodded, blushing when he thought of how Jungkook tried to be sneaky by taking condoms with him. "I would never-"
"Thanks", Jungkook snapped at the older, "I'll get another man then."
"Wait, wait, wait", Taehyung squeaked out, "Not never never. Just not anytime soon-"
Mr Jeon rolled his eyes, "If I were you, I'd stop talking right now and start driving. I'm about to change my mind."
Taehyung bit his lips, "Never, I meant never. I'm never going to do anything like this with Jungkook, I swear. I will only buy him flowers and give him kisses, that's all-"
"Good", Mr Jeon smiled.
Jungkook got into the car, his mother hugging the boy softly for goodbye. While Mr Jeon and Taehyung kept talking, she just put one condom in her son's hand, grinning at him after she pulled away from their hug. "Have fun, sweetie~"
The boy gasped, eyeing the condom in his hands, "Mom, this is why you're my favorite mother." He whispered, putting it away quickly.
"You only have one mother", Mrs Jeon smiled.
"Still, if I had more than one-, you'd be the best." Jungkook pressed a kiss to her mother's cheek and then looked at his father innocently, "Dad, can we go now? I got a whole week to read the bible and shit. Nothing's gonna happen, bye", he straightup lied at his father's face and then pulled Taehyung's door shut as well after leaning all over him to grab the handle.
He gave his Dad a smile and threw him an air kiss and then turned the key to start the car.
"Let's go, babe", he grinned at Taehyung.
The older started driving, waving to the Jeon's softly while Jungkook grabbed the condom from where he had hidden it a few minutes ago, holding it up. "We're so going to fuck in America", he squeaked.
Taehyung froze in the spot, pants getting a little tighter by seeing Jungkook's excitement.
"Are we?", Taehyung lifted his eyebrow.
"We are." Jungkook replied with the biggest grin on his face.
*
A long, long flight and uber ride later ; ..
"Welcome!", two extremely pretty girls stood at the huge gate of Princeton University. There was a huge welcoming festival to show the newbies around who came for orientation week. It was kinda a big thing and of course, the college's cheerleaders were the ones welcoming everyone at the gate. Just to give the perfect impression, y'know.
"Hi", Taehyung said, bowing politely while Jungkook's eyes went up and down their skinny bodies until he forced his mouth shut and smiled, "Hola chicas."
Taehyung nudged his side, not liking how Jungkook had eyed those two girls.
"I love highschoolers", the black haired girl let out amused, ruffling Jungkook's hair. "So young and fresh."
The other only laughed and then handed them a map and a paper with all the events for this week. "How about you two sweethearts come in and look at everything? Have some drinks and at night y'all join our huge party? Orientation week is kinda a big thing here~"
One of them was eyeing Taehyung the whole time, biting her lips as she gave him a wink.
"We'd love to give you the whole college experience within one week", she said in a flirty voice, tilting her head as she stepped a bit closer.
"Yeah", Taehyung said and stepped back, "Thanks, we'll consider it."
The girl lifted her brows as the boy stepped back. Obviously she never had someone refusing her offers, "Oh, such an honor."
"A party sounds nice", Taehyung smiled innocently and then intertwined his hands with Jungkook's, "But he sneaked condoms out of his father's house, I'm not sure if he doesn't have other plans with me tonight."
Both girls blushed, eyes going big. "Oh god, sorry we didn't know you guys were-"
Taehyung nodded, "Yeah, obviously", he said and pulled Jungkook a little closer. "I'm here to check out the college. Not the girls." And with that he walked past them, dragging Jungkook along.
While the younger had his pants a little tighter, Taehyung stopped after a few steps, "Why did you stare at their bodies like that-", he asked Jungkook anxiously.
"They're sexy", Jungkook giggled, "College girls have boobs! I've been looking for boobs on Lyza and Lia but they literally are so highschool-ish."
"Dude", Taehyung pushed him away softly, "You're gay!"
"I can still appreciate a nice view", Jungkook said and then stepped back close, "You were so hot when you brushed that girl off", he whispered to Taehyung's ear, "I wish you could fuck me right here, right now~"
Taehyung shut his eyes, inhaled deeply and then dragged the boy along, "I'm not going to fuck you at all, not until you're 18", he said calmly and then slapped Jungkook's ass while walking, pulling him even closer so that this time no one would mistake them for being just friends.
"We'll see about that"; Jungkook said, sounding a little cocky. "Let's make a bet."
"What bet?"
"A bet on how long you can resist", Jungkook looked at the older with his angel eyes, "If you get through the whole week without having sex with me, then you'll have one free wish. If I win, you owe me a wish."
Taehyung lifted his eyebrows, knowing he'd win this for sure.
"Alright. Bet."
