Neighbor|Taekook - Chapter 34: Chapter 34

On Sunday, both Jungkook and Yugyeom slept until noon. Yugyeom was going back to Busan, however his train was leaving in the evening so none of the boys felt the need to wake up early. Jungkook wake up first and checked his phone, he had an unread message from Jimin.
- -Hey, I woke up really late yesterday and I don't remember much of the party. Hope you had a good time, sorry I couldn't talk to you more. Thanks for the present, if I forgot to thank you. See you at lunch break tomorrow :) - -
Oh I had more than a good time...if only you knew what was happening in your bathroom...
Jungkook sleepily rolled off his couch and almost dropped to the floor. Sleeping on the couch was far from comfortable. He looked towards his bed, Yugyeom was still fast asleep.
Would he freak out if I were to join him? Probably...But is my bed, my room, so it's my rules. With that he stumbled across the room and dropped onto his bed beside his friend.
Yugyeom mumbled something, but his sleep seemed to be unbothered. Jungkook pulled one corner of the blanket to his side and dozed off getting few extra minutes of sleep.
It seemed like only five seconds had passed and a knocking on the door woke him again. It was too difficult to even open his eyes.
"Yeah?"his morning voice was hoarse.
The door opened,"I think it's time to-"Jungkook's dad walked into the room witnessing his son and his friend cuddling in the bed,"get up..."he finished his sentence.
Jungkook's eyes shot open, Yugyeom's face was inches away from his. His arms wrapped around him. What the... He immediately pulled away, sitting upright.
"Good morning, dad?"he was as confused just as his dad seemed to be.
"Why so loud?"Yugyeom woke up too. "Hey what are you doing here?"he asked Jungkook.
"Uhh, I was..."he could feel both his dad and Yugyeom looking at him,"I...I was just feeling cold...I wanted to grab additional blanket, but I just passed out..."his eyes landed on his morning wood.
Fucking hell, why now?!
"When did you come home?"dad asked.
"I don't know exactly...do you remember, Yugyeom?"Jungkook scratched his head and looked at his friend for help.
"I have no idea..."
"If mom asks, just tell her before midnight, don't make her angry today because then, I end up being a target too,"dad looked at him with pleading eyes.
"Sure thing, dad,"Jungkook smiled, feeling relieved that he wasn't questioning him on why he was in bed with Yugyeom.
"Alright, you guys better get up and get dressed before mom comes back from the grocery shopping,"dad gave them one last look and then walked away, closing the door behind him.
"What's the meaning of this, Kook?!"Yugyeom nudged him with his leg underneath the blanket.
"Try sleeping on that couch, it's so freaking uncomfortable!"
"I think you must've misunderstood yesterday, just because I'm okay with you being yourself and supporting your relationship, it doesn't mean that I want to experience it myself..."
Jungkook rolled his eyes,"I just wanted to sleep in my bed, that all...Besides, we've slept together so many times on trips and stuff and you've never had a problem with that."
"Yeah, but that was back when I didn't know...what...how you are. I didn't know, that you could have some ulterior motives."
"Ulterior motives?"
"Yeah...like, you know...feeling me up..."
Jungkook looked at him in disbelief. Yugyeom had a blank expression on his face. They kept looking at each other without saying a word for a minute, but then the corners of Yugyeom's lips curled upwards and he burst out laughing.
"You asshole!"Jungkook grabbed his pillow and threw it in his face.
"Who knows...what you did to me whilst I was sleeping..."Yugyeom got tangled in the blanket and wasn't able to dodge.
"I can still do a lot of things whilst you're awake,"he pushed the pillow on his face, suffocating him. Yugyeom just kept on giggling, the sound muffled by the pillow and soon enough Jungkook joined him, laughing at the stupidity of the situation.
He took the pillow away, Yugyeom's face was all red,"do you think your dad knows something?"
"After today, he might have some questions, but I can never be sure..."
They got dressed before Jungkook's mom came home, cleaned the room perfectly and Yugyeom packed all of his stuff. Even today, they ate a delicious home cooked food, filling their stomachs to the brim. The weather was too cold to spend the rest of the afternoon outside, so they chose to play games instead.
"I don't want to leave,"Yugyeom said after winning his last match.
"I don't want you to leave...I wish you could move here too. Would your parents let you?"Jungkook looked at him with false hope in his eyes.
"I doubt it...how would I be able to finance myself anyway?"
"Seoul is expensive...but maybe if you would share a small apartment with Yuki..."
"Wait, wait, wait. Our relationship isn't that far to even think about living together. I don't think she'd want to live with me, or move here. Maybe...only because...of you."
"Me?"
"I know she still has feelings for you. And...I'm jealous, okay? I compare myself with you all the time and the result is the same every time. I don't measure up."
"What are you talking about?"Jungkook was taken aback by the sudden sincerity of his friend.
"It's true, I...I had thought of you badly...because I felt just like a replacement... You left, she was heartbroken and the only one around, the only one available, was me."
"That's bullshit. She wouldn't do that."
"I tell myself the same thing, but I have so many doubts..."
"Oh come on Yugyeom..."he patted his back. "You know what? Maybe, you should tell her that I have someone new. See how she reacts. And if she still doesn't move on, you can tell her that I'm with a guy."
"Damn...would you actually let me tell her?"
"Anything for your happiness."
"Ah, stop it, you know I don't deal with emotional stuff like this well,"he spread out his arms,"come hyung, hug your dongsaeng."
Jungkook gladly embraced him, but then it was time for Yugyeom to go and the mood dropped. Yugyeom said goodbye to Jungkook's parents and thanked them for many gifts for him and his family. As they were walking on the platform of the Seoul Station, he was cursing because his suitcase ended up being packed full and heavy. His train back to Busan was already waiting there.
"So,"he turned awkwardly to face Jungkook.
"Take care,"Jungkook finished his sentence.
"You too. I'll come and visit again. And you should too...bring your boyfriend as well."
"He's not my-"
"Yeah yeah...don't punch me again,"Yugyeom laughed. "I really like him and if he makes you happy, which it seems he does, then you have my back. It was a lot to take in, but nothing really changes, you're still Jeon Jungkook."
Jungkook's only reply was that he hugged him tightly. "Your train is about to leave, so...safe trip."
"Yeah...okay...I'm going..."
"Bye."
"Bye bye Kookie,"Yugyeom turned and got onto his train. After a minute the train started moving from the platform. Yugyeom sat down near the window and waved to Jungkook who was still standing on the platform. Jungkook waved back and ended up standing there even long after the train had left the station.
I already miss him... He sighed, put his hands in his pockets and slowly started walking home.
On Monday, he got stopped in the school corridor by Namjoon, who was closely followed by Jin.
"Namjoon-ssi, how are you doing?"
"Call me hyung please. Honestly, I'm just tired, we have our CSAT next month, so we're busy."
"Yeah, it sucks,"Jin joined.
"Whoah, so you guys are going to a university?"
"No other choice..."Namjoon sighed, rubbing his forehead.
"I told you we shouldn't have gone to Jimin's party,"Jin crossed his arms on his chest.
"We need to clear our mind somehow, we can't study 24/7..."Namjoon retorted.
Jin was about to say something, but Jungkook felt like he was not supposed to be there. He excused himself, avoiding being a part of any potential argument.
Maybe I should start thinking about my future too... University? No way, I hate studying! Why would I willingly make myself go though the torture of studying for additional few years?! Right...to get a job...Fuck that...
During lunch break, Jimin looked a bit tired, but Yoongi in comparison, looked completely exhausted and seemed somehow dejected. Jungkook didn't ask them anything, but he was sure that Jimin's birthday party continued for hours into the morning even after he had left. Hoseok stopped by their table for a second and Yoongi seemed immediately a bit more lively in his presence. Jungkook noticed himself, that he got a little bit more energized too.
I suddenly know so many people here...Could this be a start of many new friendships? It sounds too good to be true...
After all of his classes had finished, Jungkook went to the library to study. He was alone this time, because Jimin felt like skipping their study session. He got to his usual spot, it was surprising that even after weeks of visiting the city library, which would usually be filled with quite many students from different schools, this one table was always free.
I guess I could call it my table now...Well, mine and Jiminie-hyung's. He dropped his heavy backpack to the floor and dropped himself onto the chair. Luckily there were no tests that week or the week after, but he still had a lot of homework to do and he knew he wouldn't be as productive at home, so it was necessary for him to come here.
He pulled out all of the textbooks and notes and with a determination to finish his homework quickly, he started scribbling down. The days were getting shorter and pretty much every day he would go from school witnessing the sunset. Today was no exception and it was already dark outside. He turned on the little lamp on the table and focused some more.
Out of nowhere, someone appeared in front of him, startling him. His eyes were on a belt level of a yellow uniform. Jimin-hyung? He turned his eyes up and before he could recognize the face, the uniform clad student standing in front of him ruffled his hair.
"Studying hard?"Taehyung smiled.
"Hyung! What are you doing here?"
"The same as every student who comes here."
"How did you know I would be here?"
"I didn't, but I was walking past, so I though I'll go check up on you, if you're here. I knew Jimin-hyung wouldn't come today."
"I don't mean just library, but this table?"
"This used to be my spot...some time ago."
"Oh really? Is that why it's always free?"
Taehyung shrugged and sit on the other end of the library table, where Jimin would usually sit.
"Hyung, I need to concentrate,"he was hoping that Taehyung would leave after checking up on him, not study with him.
"Does my presence make you lose your focus? Do I affect you that much? I'm so powerful..."Taehyung boasted with a smirk.
"Actually not all,"Jungkook huffed and pinned his eyes to his notes, studying hard.
Taehyung didn't say anything else and also spread out his notes on the table and studied. For Jungkook, it was impossible to concentrate, the small lamp was providing enough light to enhance the beautiful features of Taehyung's face and Jungkook couldn't resist and take a glance at his hyung every few minutes. Him being distracted has reached its limit. He wasn't able to deal with it, it was frustrating and he thought of packing his books and leaving. Just as he was about to reach down, searching for his backpack, Taehyung broked the silence.
"Let's take a break."
Thank God!
Jungkook stood up and stretched his arms and back, then he walked back and forth, stretching his legs. When he passed his hyung, the older one grabbed his arm and pulled him down to sit on his lap.
"Hyung!"he hissed. "What if someone comes?!"their table was tucked in the corner so he knew that someone coming there was highly unlikely to happen.
"Yugyeom-ssi had you for the whole weekend, I want to enjoy you a bit too."
"Seriously, someone might come..."
"If that happens, you can say that there was something in my eyes."
"Yeah, that's why I need to sit on your lap, such a great excuse..."
"But there really is something in my eye,"he grabbed Jungkook's tie and pulled him down slightly,"look closely."
Jungkook's face was just a hair's breadth away, he has never had a chance to observe his face this closely. All he could see was all the flaws he didn't have. For the first time he noticed that one of his eyes had a double eyelid and the other one didn't. To him, it looked so cute and endearing that it almost made his heart clench.
"There's nothing in your eye,"he whispered.
"I said look closely,"Taehyung's voice was barely a whisper.
Jungkook reluctantly focused on his eyes again. He observed his iris and all he could see in that beautiful dark brown lake was his own reflection. He blushed furiously and moved away, but Taehyung was still holding onto his tie.
"I guess you figured it out,"Taehyung pulled him closer,"all I see is you, you are in my eyes all the time...even in the crowd, my eyes would always instinctively find you."
"There are cameras here..."
"But hyung wants to kiss his baby boy so bad."
"That's not my problem."
"Are you sure?"he pulled the tie even lower.
Jungkook felt the heat radiating from Taehyung, he could see all the cute moles on his tan skin. "For fuck's sake,"his head dropped down and he kissed Taehyung.
He hated that Taehyung didn't even have to try and he was already melting in his arms, ready to fulfill any wish his hyung might have.
"Aren't you a good boy..."
Even though Jungkook could barely hear those sweet words, they turned him helplessly on.
"You'll be able to study better after this break."
"I don't think so..."he looked down, all the blood rushed into his crotch, his boner creating a tent from his uniform pants.
"I just love how easily you get excited,"Taehyung nuzzled his neck.
"Don't flatter yourself,"his cheeks flushed pink.
"Oh I don't have to, this is enough,"he glanced at his crotch. "In addition , you've been reading the same page for the last fifty minutes, I guess your mind was somewhere else, wasn't it?"
He caught me...
"You weren't thinking about hyung, were you?"
Jungkook shook his head,"I was trying to memorize the page."
"Really? Let's see,"Taehyung leaned over, reaching the other side of the table, with Jungkook still in his lap. He purposely pressed his chest into his and grabbed Jungkook's textbook. He scanned the opened page briefly.
"So let's practice, what did you memorize?"
What a jerk! He knows I didn't memorize anything...
"Uhh, something about the cell nucleus...it...it was too complicated."
"Surely, after so much time focusing on this page you must remember something."
"I don't...biology isn't my forte."
Taehyung slammed the book shut. The sound echoed in the spacious library. "This is why we're taking this short break from studying."
His slender fingers trailed Jungkook's inner thighs. The recipient of the touch flinched and was ready to stand up, but Taehyung wasn't letting go off his tie.
"Hyung wants his boy to study hard, so this is going to help. Don't resist...this will make you feel good and help you refocus,"his fingers lightly tapped Jungkook's knee and then brushed the top of his thighs, moving smoothly to caress his inner thighs again.
Jungkook's muscles clenched at the sensation, his eyelids fluttered and he closed his eyes, enjoying the skilled hands of his hyung, who touched his hard-on ever so slightly, earning a soft moan from him.
He quickly opened his eyes and immediately pressed his hand to his mouth. He knew that if there were any students studying somewhere close to his table, they could hear his moan. Just like that, he heard a cough from somewhere close.
"Please stop..."
"Nobody's watching."
"You know this qualifies as an act of indecency? It's a crime."
"Do you see anyone watching us?"
Jungkook looked around.
"Do you see any cameras?"
He looked everywhere and in fact couldn't see any,"none."
"Then we can say this isn't a public space, it's not a crime. It's just us being a little bit naughty."
"But someone will hear, there are so many students here at this hour,"
"You just have to be quiet, it's not that difficult, is it?"his fingers brushed up and down on his erect manhood and Jungkook knew there was no going back. He put his arms around Taehyung's shoulders, leaning down to kiss him.
Taehyung wrapped his hand around the imprint of his erection, rubbing it faster, making the job of keeping quiet even more difficult for Jungkook. To muffle his moans, he kissed Taehyung hard, pushing his tongue deep inside.
Taehyung however stopped abruptly,"I think you're still too loud, Jungkookie."
"I can't help it,"he said flustered.
"Don't get me wrong, I can't get enough of your whimpers and God knows I'm having a really hard time myself...resisting the urge...to just bend you over this table and take you right here."
Jungkook had to bite down on his lips to keep quiet. Taehyung's words were driving him crazy and when he pictured what Taehyung was describing, he felt like combusting.
"Shhhh, always too eager, aren't you?"Taehyung whispered into his ear with his velvety voice.
"I...I can't hold it any longer,"Jungkook whined frustrated, then he bit down on Taehyung's shoulder so no one could hear him.
"Then come for me."
"But my uniform..."
Taehyung ignored his protest and planted a wet sensual kiss on his neck, licking it from the collar of his shirt all the way up to his ear. He took Jungkook's earlobe into his mouth and gently grazed it with his teeth.
The sensation was enough. Jungkook firmly pressed both of his hands to his mouth, trying to stay quiet as possible and he spilled himself, his leg muscles twitching in orgasm. Warm liquid soaked his uniform. "Hyung..."he whispered, his voice trembling,"why do you do this to me? First my jeans...and now my uniform..."he was breathing hard.
The older one just caressed his cheek, made him stand up and grabbed his shirt near the belt. He pulled the fabric up, untucking the shirt, breifly exposing Jungkook's abs. The shirt was long enough so that the hemline was reaching below Jungkook's crotch, covering the evidence of his orgasm.
"Now go to the bathroom and wipe it with a toilet paper, nobody will be able to tell."
Jungkook turned around obediently, Taehyung patted his butt, pushing him forward. He started walking to the bathroom, feeling paranoid that someone will see him. However he couldn't help blushing thinking about how hot it was.
Definitely not something I've ever thought I'd be doing in a library...
After wiping his pants and drying them with a hand drier in the bathroom, he returned back and sat down on his chair. "I'm so tired now, this wasn't helpful at all.."
"But at least I won't be a distraction to you anymore."
You have no idea...I could've jerked off ten times and my dick would twitch the second you merely smile.
"You are not a distraction."
"Oh my dear Kookie, if only you knew...You wear your heart on your sleeve. It's very obvious. That's what makes you really vulnerable, people could use you, because you're so easy to read. That's what makes me be protective around you. I'm sure you can defend yourself against any physical attacks, but otherwise you're so vulnerable. I know perfectly why you prefer to study with Jimin-hyung, he's not a distraction to you."
"I'm just saying that I'm tired, don't be so full of yourself."
"Don't worry, we're going on our little getaway this week."
"Wait...what? It's this week?"
"I somehow managed to persuade my mom to talk to your mom and let you go. Either way, I don't see why she wouldn't let you go. The plane tickets are for Thursday, we're coming back on Sunday."
"What?! What about the school?"
"Two missed days won't kill you."
"Aish, mom definitely won't let me go. She's on edge these days for some reason."
"I can talk to her myself, tell her that you're very stressed lately, after all you didn't have any rest during Chuseok, right? You were studying hard the whole time, poor Jungkookie..."
Jungkook felt guilty for lying and didn't say anything.
"I'll call you later, I'll tell you all the details and everything. Make sure to pack everything, don't leave it for last minute."
"That's not my style, but why should I start packing when I don't even know whether I'm allowed to go?"
"Just leave that to hyung, I'll take care of it,"he smiled at him reassuringly.
After their break, they dived back into studying and left the library late at night.
"Hyung, weren't you supposed to work?"
"No, however I'll have work every evening until Thursday, so we won't see each other much until, then,"he looked at Jungkook when they were walking to the station, to take the subway. "Unless you stop going to school earlier to avoid me..."
Jungkook looked down,"I could use a little bit more sleep in the morning..."
The next day, he woke up just on time, feeling significantly more rested after enjoying those extra forty minutes of sleep. He met up with Taehyung, who was visibly displeased with the state of his tie knot and he took the initiative to adjust it in the elevator. They took the bus to school together and Jungkook was even this morning stunned, how handsome Taehyung looked in his uniform. He was feeling almost proud that he ended up with such a gorgeous guy. And when Taehyung's fingers laced with his, despite being surrounded by many people taking the same bus to work, he didn't move his hand away. He only gave his hyung a small knowing smile.
He was feeling so happy and content, being with him. It seemed like even if the whole universe was against them, it would be fine because they had each other. He has learned that the more he was resisting it, the more things were going wrong.
As they say, when things go wrong, it's only to put you on the right path...It seems that universe wants me to walk my path with him by my side. With him, I never walk alone.
