                    Jungkook and Taehyung were splayed out naked on the bed in their hotel room, breathing hard all sweaty and tired. Despite not wanting to move, Jungkook put his head on Taehyung's chest, feeling the need to be closer to his hyung.
"How was it?"Taehyung asked, running fingers through Jungkook's hair.
"It was intense, but amazing. I had no idea that something like this could feel so amazing...You are so good at this, hyung...I have to say, you just know what you're doing..."Jungkook sighed, drawing circles on Taehyung's smooth chest. "Did you enjoy it too?"
"It felt great...I would be lying if I said that I wouldn't want a second round...But I think it was quite enough for you, at least for now."
"We can try tomorrow."
"Look at you, getting a taste for men all of a sudden?"Taehyung poked him.
"It's only you...and stop teasing me hyung! If you want to have sex again, stop with the teasing!"
"Oh, so now I have to ask nicely?"Taehyung kept teasing him. "Wasn't it you, who wanted oppa up his ass?"
Jungkook pushed him away, angry and embarrassed at the same time. He wanted to defend himself, but he was too tired for that. Instead he grabbed some tissues and wiped all the cum from himself.
"We totally messed up..."he looked at his hyung, who was watching him with a smile on his lips.
"Yeah."
"Our promise to not cross boundaries of a friendship...it didn't last long."
"I know."
"It's all my fault, I started it all."
"I'm glad you did. I've gotten too cautious over time, I don't think I would've initiated anything. I would probably try to avoid you, just as you were doing for weeks. Or who knows...maybe I wouldn't be able to resist you for long."
"I was wondering,"Jungkook asked after the cleanup, hugging his knees, bringing them to his chest,"you've done it with a guy before, right?"
"Yes."
"With me...was it any different? Did it feel better or worse when you compare it,"Jungkook was cringing at the thought of Taehyung being with someone else. Especially when it came to being intimate with someone, that was making him furious.
Just the idea of someone else putting hands on him makes me crazy. Lips which are not mine, kissing his. Someone else making him laugh, hugging him, holding his hands...I hate it all...
"It was great, but I can't compare it properly."
"Why not?"
"Because I've always been the bottom with the other guys."
"Bottom?"
"Yeah, the one taking it up the ass."
"Oh..."
He said guys, not just one guy...so that means he'd had multiple partners...Well, should I be even surprised?
It was hard to believe that Taehyung, who in Jungkook's eyes came across as more dominant was willing to do something like that. He must've really liked his partner...or partners...God, I don't even want to imagine with how many people he has slept...Jungkook couldn't help the pang of jealousy. We are almost the same age, yet he has so much more experience and knowledge about pretty much everything...What have I been doing with my life?
"So this was your first time doing it this way? Not bottom way?"
"As a top, yes," Taehyung seemed shy after admitting it.
"Do you like it the other way better?"
"I'm fine with everything. However, I've always wanted to try it like this. Especially when it comes to you, I've been imagining us together for quite a while. Every time I would jerk off, I would imagine doing it with you."
What?! No way...Jungkook blushed, suddenly not knowing what to do with himself. He gave him a shy smile. He really imagined me and him doing it? That's really hard to believe, but why would he lie? And it's not like I haven't been thinking about doing the same things with him...
"You did a great job for the first time then. To me, it seemed like you must've practiced a lot."
"It's not much different than doing it with a girl."
"Oh,"Jungkook completely forgot that Taehyung had experience with both genders. The idea of him being with a girl made him even more jealous. "I wouldn't know much about that,"he remarked, trying to not let his emotions show. "So are you basically saying, that it wasn't all that special?"
"Pabo...Do you want to know a secret?"
Jungkook shrugged, he doubted that anything Taehyung would say to him, could make him feel better.
"No?"
Jungkook shrugged again, acting disinterested.
"I know you're jealous, you're doing that tongue thing."
"What tongue thing?"
"Putting your tongue against the inside of your cheek. You should try to be a little bit less obvious,"Taehyung laughed.
What is he talking about? I'm not jealous...he can sleep with whoever he wants, I don't care. He huffed and crossed his arms tighter around his knees, resting his chin on top.
"You still haven't answered, do you want to know the secret?"
"I don't care about any of your secrets..."Jungkook wanted this conversation to end.
Taehyung sat up, leaned in and whispered into his ear,"you're tighter than any girl I've ever been with."
Jungkook was speechless. Never have I imagined that I will be hearing something like this.
"It's late, we better get some sleep, we have two more days on this island. We need to regain our energy,"Taehyung took a deep breath.
"I don't want to go anywhere, I just want to be with you, that's enough for me."
"Oh you're not grumpy anymore?"he laughed.
Jungkook lifted his finger up to Taehyung's mouth, silencing him. "Remember no more butt sex for you, if you don't behave hyung."
"Alright, I give up. I wouldn't want to miss out on that...but it was fun teasing you. Anyway, do you want to stay here in the hotel tomorrow?"
"Can we do that?"
"Of course. We might get a bit bored though."
"I don't think I can be bored when you're around."
"We can certainly have fun in the bed,"Taehyung winked at him.
"Actually, I want to go somewhere, it seems like a waste to be staying inside."
"Oh no, now I have to beg Kookie to have sex?"
"Maybe,"he smirked,"I think I just found your weak spot."
"You alone are my week spot, you've been one for quite a while in case you haven't noticed," he stood up and walked to the bathroom, splashed his face with cold water and brushed his teeth. He put on bathrobe,"do you think there will be stars up on the sky?"
"Isn't it too cloudy? It was raining so much."
Taehyung slided the balcony door open,"it's not raining anymore,"he stepped out into the night. A cold air blew into the room, Jungkook pulled a blanket over his bare legs. "Thy sky has cleared up, come look Jungkookie,"he heard Taehyung's voice from the outside.
"It's too cold,"Jungkook whined.
"You won't be able to see stars like this in Seoul, there's almost no light pollution here."
Jungkook didn't want to move from the bed, but after Taehyung kept calling, he wrapped himself in the blanket and stood up. He winced right away, feeling a dull pain deep inside. It hurt even more when he tried to make a step. He bent over slightly, trying to relieve the pain, when suddenly he felt something even stranger.
Oh God. He forgot about the fact that Taehyung came inside him. Of course, it has to get out somehow. He limped to get more tissues. Good thing that he doesn't have to see this. He put down the blanket and gently tried to clean himself again. How the hell do I get it all out?! The mixture of Taehyung's cum and lube was running down his inner thigh. I guess I have a lot of questions to ask...Hyung expects me to know everything...Well, isn't it what I wanted? To come across as experienced? It's safe to say that I'm not fooling anyone... He threw away all the tissues, praying that no more gloopy liquid would leak out of him.
He braced the cold night air after Taehyung kept nagging him to come outside on the balcony. His jaw dropped, there were countless stars scattered up on the sky and their reflection down on the surface of the sea. He shivered, so Taehyung came behind him and hugged him, sharing his body heat.
"That's really interesting,"Taehyung's deep voice resounded against his neck, giving him goosebumps,"two constellations are shining really bright tonight,"he grabbed Jungkook's hand, wrapping his fingers around and lifted it up. He made him stretch his arm and moved it up across the sky as a cursor. "That one,"he narrowed Jungkook's index finger on a bright group of stars. He outlined the shape of the constellation,"that's Virgo, your zodiac sign and one of the largest constellations in the southern hemisphere."
"It doesn't look like anything,"Jungkook was straining his eyes too see something in the constellation.
"It's this way, can you see it? It's a virgin lying down, with head towards the east."
"Oh, I can kind of see it now, that's cool."
"Now, what's really unusual is that the other constellation shining particularly bright is right next to it,"he moved his finger and outlined a much smaller constellation. "That's Corvus."
"Looks like a distorted square."
"Yeah, but its name in Latin means crow."
"What?!"Jungkook put his hand down quickly.
It can't be...
"It was a sacred bird of Apollo, but one time Apollo got so angry, that he burned all of its feathers. That's why, according to the legend all crows have black feathers now."
"I hate crows."
"You do? Well, it's just a legend...the constellation is still pretty."
"No, I don't like that one,"Jungkook shuddered. "Where's your zodiac sign?"his eyes were trying to find something else to look at.
"Capricorn? It's not visible now, you have to wait for spring. I always try to search for it at night, every time I spot it, it makes me feel happy, but sad at the same time...it's hard to explain."
"Is there something else?"
"Let's see,"Taehyung pointed his finger to the other side of the horizon. "That there is Cepheus, who married Cassiopeia right next to it, and at the end, it's not really visible but there should be their daughter Andromeda."
"Hyung, how do you know so much about this?
"I've spent many hours looking up at the sky, connecting the stars, creating images in my head."
"I've done the same, but never bothered to learn anything about the actual constellations or mythology."
"I find it quite interesting..."
"But those stories, they are not true, right?"
"Well, they are called myths...maybe for a reason, but I can't say for sure. However what I can say for sure is that you're shining really bright tonight."
"You're soo cheesy, hyung."
"But Virgo really is bright tonight! And also that scary scary black crow,"he put his fingertips together, creating a beak and jokingly pecked Jungkook's arm.
"Stop it!"he got chills, possibly from the cold air, but he knew that the reason for that was different.
"Jungkookie, do you want to take a bath? We have a pretty large bathtub here, I think both of us will fit in it,"Taehyung back hugged him again, seeing that Jungkook really didn't like his joke.
"It seems like all we do here is soaking ourselves in water."
"Well, I'm running a bath whether you'll join me or not,"he kissed his nape and went inside.
Jungkook scowled one last time at the crow constellation and followed Taehyung. "Wait a minute, Jimin-hyung gave me something." It hurt again when he squatted down to his suitcase. He ignored the pain and rummaged through his stuff. "He gave me some bath thingies. He said that he bough them for someone as a gift, but won't need them anymore. I thought that they smelled nice, so I took them,"he pulled out a paper bag filled with bath bombs. He heard that Taehyung turned on the water faucet in the bathroom.
"So you're joining me?"Taehyung asked him when he Jungkook brought the bag. He wasn't ashamed in the slightest, standing there naked in front of him, his bathrobe tossed in the floor. He noticed that Jungkook was limping. "Are you sore?"he looked at him concerned.
"A little bit..."
"The bath will help."
"We need more bubbles,"he handed him the bag, avoiding looking at his body.
"You can look all you want."
"No thanks."
Taehyung grinned and took the bag, he then dumped its content into the tub, making the water fizz and bubble right away.
"You're not supposed to use them all at once!"
"You wanted bubbles..."Taehyung looked at him innocently.
"Aish, hyung..."
"Am I annoying you?"Taehyung smiled widely.
"No,"Jungkook crossed his arms, wrapping the blanket tighter around him.
"You don't even look at me..."Taehyung pouted.
Jungkook briefly looked him up and down, feeling the heat spreading all over his body, reaching his face.
"It makes me think that you don't like what you see."
"Oh I like everything,"he muttered quietly. "You're handsome and you bloody well know it. You don't need others to tell you that."
"Maybe I do...I like hearing it. And I like my lover looking at my body...Actually, I prefer lovemaking with the lights on, I'm easily visually stimulated, but I knew you'd be too shy for that."
"Feeding your ego,"Jungkook rolled his eyes.
"A little bit,"Taehyung grinned. "So,"he sighed dramatically,"you find me handsome, but what about my body?"
I swear...he keeps asking me that...obviously wanting to hear compliments, nothing else. I wonder how he would react if I completely roasted him. But how could I? This perfection in front of me? Let him have it his way...
Jungkook mustered the courage and let his eyes feed on the sight of his beautiful body, taking in all the details. "Has anyone ever told you, that you have a perfect example of an S-line body? It's just curved so nicely."
"I've heard that before,"he had a smug look on his face.
"You probably turn all the straight guys gay."
"Think so?"
"Well, you turned me gay,"Jungkook chuckled. Admitting it wasn't making him uncomfortable anymore, it was becoming a part of him. I guess my sexuality has always been a part of me, but I was ignoring it.
He let the blanket drop from his shoulders and crossed the distance between them to hug his hyung. He ran his hands over his body. So hot... His fingertips trailed over his back, which was turned towards the bathroom mirror. Jungkook looked at the reflection. His butt is just exquisite. He placed his hands on each cheek. "You're thick,"Jungkook giggled.
"Are you fat shaming me?" Taehyung sounded offended.
"Not at all...I love it,"he squeezes his butt playfully. His eyes followed the line of Taehyung's spine up. "Oh my God, did I do that?"he turned Taehyung around to see properly. There were angry looking scratch marks all over his back.
"What?"Taehyung turned back trying to see what Jungkook was talking about in the mirror. "Ah...you definitely went wild and did a number on my poor back."
"I didn't even realize..."
"I take it that it felt good, if you weren't able to control yourself."
"I won't do it again...at least I'll try not to."
"I don't mind. You for sure marked me as yours,"he laughed. "Just wait for tomorrow, I'm pretty sure I marked you as well."
"Huh?"Jungkook turned around quickly, twisting his neck, trying to spot scratches on his back, but his skin was smooth, untouched. "What did you do?" The only thing out of the ordinary was his slightly red butt.
"You'll see,"he smirked,"come, the water will get cold." Taehyung went into the bubble bath first, offering a hand to Jungkook and helping him not to slip.
Then they both found a comfortable position in the tub, enjoying the relaxing warmth and playing with the bubbles. "I'm so tired, I'm going to fall asleep here,"Jungkook said after Taehyung finished massaging his shoulder.
It didn't take long and Jungkook really fell asleep on Taehyung's chest. His hyung didn't move, for as long as it was comfortable, letting Jungkook sleep on him. After about half an hour he got bored so he woke him up, you're skin is getting all wrinkled."
Jungkook woke up confused,"but I don't want to, your chest is so comfy."
"Our bed is also comfy."
"I'll sleep here."
"No you can't, come on help me, you're too heavy,"Taehyung was trying to free himself from underneath Jungkook.
Jungkook reluctantly climbed out, ignoring the fact that he could slip on the bathroom tiles and fall down at any moment.
"Jungkookie, be careful,"Taehyung's protective instinct kicked in, as Jungkook stumbled across the bathroom. "Wait, you need to shower to rinse away-"
"I just took a bath hyung, why would I do that?"
"Because you are covered in glitter!" Taehyung watched him in disbelief.
"At least I'm fabulous,"Jungkook replied half asleep. He lazily dried himself, brushed his teeth and waddled naked to the bed.
Taehyung shook his head and smiled to himself, he just loved him too much. He followed Jungkook shortly after, once he drained the bathtub. He went all around the room and blew out the candles one by one. He then quietly climbed under the soft, warm covers. "Are you sleeping?"he whispered.
"No."
Taehyung tucked him in and swiped his damp hair from his forehead. "Thank you for everything Jungkookie...It's been an amazing day, you made me feel so alive."
"You're welcome,"Jungkook mumbled and stretched his arms, inviting Taehyung into his embrace. "You smell so nice, Tae,"he snuggled in closer.
"You smell exactly the same..."
"Do I?"
"Yes, we were in the same bath together. Don't you remember?"
"Yeah, you marked me, that's why I smell like you."
Taehyung sighed,"exactly, everyone who gets claimed by me ends up smelling like jasmine, citrus and bubblegum."
"I knew it."
"Sleep well my baby boy."
"Where's my goodnight kiss?"
"Oh of course, how could I forget that,"Taehyung planted a kiss on his forehead.
"Don't wake me up in the morning."
"I won't. You can sleep as much as you want."
"Nighty night Taeddy."
"Teddy?"
"Tae daddy."
"Sweet dreams Kookie bun."
They were both tired from the long day, and fell asleep quickly.
Taehyung woke up at dawn with the first rays of sunshine. He didn't get up, instead he watched Jungkook sleeping soundly on his belly next to him. He couldn't help but smile, seeing his adorable boy, mouth open, hair messy, his hands folded under his head, squishing his soft cheeks, still covered in glitter. More and more light poured into the room, making Jungkook squint his eyes and scrunch his nose.
"Good morning,"Taehyung said to him.
"Morning,"Jungkook rubbed his eyes,"what time is it?"
"Nine o'clock. Did you sleep well?"Taehyung picked a loose eyelash from his cheek.
"Yeah."
"No bad dreams?"
"None."
"I held you close, so I knew you'll sleep well."
"Thanks,"Jungkook opened his eyes.
"Have I told you that you have such beautiful eyes."
"There's nothing special about them."
"They are so big and round and they sparkle...Bambi eyes."
"Your eyes are prettier."
Taehyung smiled and lovingly touched his chin. "How are you feeling?"
"Okay."
"Does it still hurt?"
Jungkook shifted under the covers and stretched his body, he was still feeling that dull pain,"a little bit...I'll be fine."
Taehyung kissed him on the lips,"I should've been more careful."
"I'm tougher than you think, hyung."
"Sure,"Taehyung chuckled and reached for the phone. "I don't know how about you, but I don't feel like going down to the lobby for breakfast."
"Me neither."
"What would you like to eat?"Taehyung dialed the room service.
"Banana milk."
"For breakfast?"
"Yes."
"Okay then, a banana milk for the tough baby boy."
Jungkook drifted back to sleep as Taehyung ordered way more food than his boy requested, knowing his appetite. When he heard a knock on the door, he went to open it, dressed in his robe. Jungkook was still sleeping naked in bed, with only his bottom half covered up by a duvet.
The room service employee rolled in a table filled with all kinds of delicious, sweet and savory breakfast food, plus few small bottles of banana milk. He was about to turn around and walk out, when he noticed that Taehyung wasn't the only one staying in the hotel room. The employee's eyes lingered on the messy bed and the half naked Jungkook sleeping in it. Then he looked back on Taehyung, then back to Jungkook, not knowing how to react.
"Is there a problem?"Taehyung asked, his voice low, piercing the guy with his cold eyes.
"No sir, enjoy your breakfast,"the employee bowed and rushed out.
Right after the employee crossed the doorstep and was about to close the door, Taehyung arrogantly snapped his fingers at him.
"Yes, sir?"he turned around anxiously.
"We would like our sheets changed."
The employee nodded and quickly stumbled away. Taehyung closed the door, frowning and annoyed. He took a deep breath and when he looked at Jungkook, his face softened. He walked to him, gently shook his arm to wake him up and placed a tray of food in front of him.
"Breakfast in bed?"Jungkook asked.
"You deserve it," Taehyung smiled and turned on the TV, selecting a channel playing cartoons. He joined Jungkook in bed and together they ate the breakfast whilst watching the TV and cuddling lazily.
After finishing all the banana milk, Jungkook went to the bathroom. He looked into the mirror. What the hell? There was something on his neck. Is that an allergic reaction? From drinking too much yesterday? He leaned closer to the mirror and touched his neck. No, it looks bruised...Wait...is this from...hyung's kissing? Oh...so this is how he marked me...His face got flushed. What am I supposed to do now? It won't fade that quickly and everyone in school will see it.
Now that I think about it, it's not the first time I'm seeing something like this. He washed his face with cold water and patted it dry with a towel. That time...that bruise on Jimin-hyung's neck. It must've been from his girlfriend...why would he say to me that he doesn't know any girls then? Is he that protective? But now, she's making him unhappy or there's something clearly wrong...I just need to find out who she is.
"Is it Saturday today?"Jungkook looked at the wardrobe, trying to choose an outfit for the day, wishing that he had packed a turtleneck to cover all those hickeys.
"Yes. Have you decided what you want to do?"
"It's not raining again is it?"he shot a look to the window. "Let's go somewhere."
"If you need to rest-"
"No, I want to see something new."
"Okay, then I think we should check out Jeju City or maybe Shinhwa World."
"Sounds good."
"If you feel okay, how about we go clubbing tonight?"
Jungkook burst out laughing,"I can't imagine you in a club, hyung."
"You don't have to imagine, you have a chance to see me on the dance floor with your own eyes."
"That is something I have to see at least once in my life."
"You'll be blown away by my moves, just you wait."
They got dressed, packed everything for the day and at noon they were ready for a new adventure on the small island.
"I'm so glad that it's not raining today, my other pair of shoes is still wet,"Jungkook said, putting the seatbelt on.
"It was raining enough yesterday...Anyway, to get to Jeju-si, we can drive around Hallasan from the western side and stop by Shinhwa amusement park first."
"That's a great idea."
Taehyung started the car,"I don't think there will be many people now and it's not a huge amusement park, so even if we go on all the rides, we wouldn't spend more than three hours there."
"Oh, we're definitely going on all the rides,"Jungkook said excited.
They arrived at the amusement park in the afternoon, the sun was shining and there were no signs of rain. Just as Taehyung predicted, the park wasn't packed full, so they didn't have to wait in line for any of tickets.
First they went on some of the smaller rides, then on the roller coaster. Then they decided to walk around a bit, hand in hand, checking out the souvenirs and getting churros from one of the snack bars. After their dizziness subsided, it was time for more rides and then a late lunch at the bistro. Jungkook got some pizza and Taehyung some stir fried noodles.
"We have to go to the Lotte World too,"Jungkook suggested.
"Wouldn't you mind going there with me?"
"Why would I mind?"
"Here, it's different. People don't know us. But if we went to the Lotte World back in Seoul together, someone who knows us, let's say from school might see us. Wouldn't you mind? Would you still hold my hand?"
"I don't know,"Jungkook admitted. "Would it be bad is someone from school saw us?"
"They would spread rumors. Rumors about you, Jungkookie. The new transfer student holding hands with a guy. Would you be okay with that?"
"Technically there's nothing wrong with that."
"You're right, but you know that no one would be looking at it from that point of view."
"Would you mind those sort of rumors."
"Trust me, there's been so much stuff said about me at school, that I wouldn't care at all."
"Well then I don't care either. I might as well hold your hand at school too."
"I wouldn't let you."
"Why not?"
"Because I don't want you to get bullied."
"I can defend myself."
"I know you can. But the thought of anyone saying something nasty to you, making fun of you, calling you names or trying to hit you makes my blood boil."
"I feel the same way about you, hyung."
Taehyung sighed,"you know, I love you so much."
"I love you more."
After the lunch they checked out the remaining rides and at last went on the merry-go-round. When it was time for them to leave, Taehyung bought a bunny balloon for Jungkook and some cotton candy as a snack for the remaining ride to the Jeju City.
"We have time for one additional stop before we get to the city, when I was looking the map, I saw there's this hedge maze called Kimnyoung. I think it will be fun to go there. "
"I've always wanted to go to one of those,"Jungkook stuffed the balloon inside the car.
"Shall we have another bet? The one who finds the way out of the maze first pays for the dinner."
"I feel bad for your wallet, hyung."
"You might be speaking too soon, bunny. My sense of orientation is way better than yours."
"Isn't it about who's faster?"
"Slow and steady wins the race."
"It wasn't me who was paying for yesterday's dinner."
"It wasn't me who was getting his butt spanked," Taehyung winked at him and started driving towards their destination.
Jungkook knew that it was time for him to shut up.
"There's also Loveland on the way, it could be interesting."
"Loveland? What's that?"
"It's something like a park...park of love, depicting many forms of physical love to be precise."
"Wait...I...I think I've heard of it,"Jungkook suddenly remembered that he once read about Jeju's park filled with sculptures representing various sexual positions. "I don't want to go there."
"Just as I was expecting,"Taehyung chuckled.
They arrived at Kimnyoung Maze in the late afternoon. Before that, they had stopped briefly at 7-Eleven to grab a coffee and buy some water.
"The maze closes at six, so we better hurry,"Taehyung said stepping out of the car.
Jungkook stretched his legs, ready to run through the maze. He went over to an information panel, briefly scanning the plan of the maze. "It says here that there are four different ways to get through the maze. We should both start at the same spot and go opposite directions."
"Deal," Taehyung also went over the plan, trying to memorize it.
They walked side by side to the starting point. "May the better one win,"Jungkook smirked.
"Oh I don't like loosing."
"Me neither,"without any warning, Jungkook bolted out, choosing a path on the right side. He heard Taehyung's cursing behind him, but he didn't care. All I need to do is go forward, get as far as possible from the starting point and then find the exit...easy.
What seemed really easy in his mind turned out to be lot more difficult in reality. He got to the central part of the maze and got confused. Where did I come from? From the front? Is that the start? Oh fuck, I should've paid more attention...The sun was starting to set, he heard footsteps and he knew that it was no one else but Taehyung. Without giving it a second thought, he started running away in the opposite direction.
This time Taehyung followed, running after him. "You're a cheater!"he heard from behind a hedge beside him.
"Hyung, for you, slow and steady wins the race..."he started sprinting. "You shouldn't care whether I cheated or no-"
Taehyung emerged from behind a corner in front of him and before Jungkook could react, his hyung put his foot in front of him and tripped him. He hit the graveled path hard.
"Ouch, what are you doing?!"
Taehyung was on top of him in a second, he pinned him down and growled into his ear,"I hate cheaters." Without helping Jungkook, he turned around and ran away somewhere into the maze.
"Fuck,"Jungkook cursed out loud. Why did this suddenly turn so competitive? It's getting darker, without any light, finding the way out will be impossible. After what seemed like hours, he finally found a way out and the next thing he knew, he was paying for a delicious dinner in Jeju City.
After the dinner, they strolled through the busy and lively streets near the City Hall area, looking at different shops and street vendors. Later in the night, they went back to the car, Taehyung handed Jungkook a blazer which he had packed. "Put this on."
"Why?"
"You better look nice if you're going clubbing with me," Taehyung also put on one of his well fitting blazer.
Jungkook sighed and put on Taehyung's blazer, it was a bit large on him, but Taehyung looked satisfied, so that was enough for him. His hyung offered him a hand, which he accepted, a little bit unsure and together they headed for the Dome nightclub. People were giving them looks, but neither Taehyung nor Jungkook cared at this point.
"Because I'm driving I won't be able to drink tonight. Feel free to get whatever drink you want for yourself though," Taehyung said after waiting in line and finally getting inside the nightclub with blasting music.
Jungkook had a taste for something sweet, so he went and ordered some strawberry daiquiri.
Taehyung just got orange juice,"I wasn't expecting so many people here."
"Well at least we know where all the people go at night...Tae, you have to try this, it's delicious,"Jungkook pushed the straw to Taehyung's mouth.
"I can't Jungkookie."
"Just a sip, you like strawberries!"Jungkook was persistent. Normally he would be against it, but tonight he wanted to let loose.
"Okay, just a sip," Taehyung tried the drink.
"Loosen up, let's just have fun. We won't have a chance like this again."
Taehyung gave up and ordered the same exact drink for himself.
"What do you say Tae, shall we hit the dance floor?" Jungkook grinned.
Taehyung grabbed his arm and pulled him into the swarming crowd of people as a response. The air was hot, the music loud, the strobe lights and the alcohol making them dizzy. The world was spinning as they started to move to the rhythm of the beat.
Jungkook had his eyes only on Taehyung. The way he moved his body was hot and seductive, he looked like a definition of a bad boy. He needed to get closer, his body matching Taehyung's, their hips matching the same melody just as they were doing last night. The crowd disappeared, it was only two of them, the music was gone, only their fast breathing remained. Taehyung grabbed his waist and they continued grinding against each other until a new song came on. They changed the rhythm, learning each other's moves to create a perfect harmony.
After couple of upbeat songs and few more drinks a slow romantic one came on. Taehyung didn't hesitate to put his hands back on Jungkook's waist and the younger one instinctively put his hands on his shoulders. They were staring deeply into each other's eyes, bodies touching, making the crow disappear once again.
"I love you,"Taehyung said into Jungkook's ear.
"I love you too,"Jungkook rested his head on Taehyung's chest, whilst slowly swaying with the song.
No one paid attention to them except few girls, who got closer to them as they were sitting down, resting. Those girls were clearly drunk, wearing heavy makeup, dressed in skimpy clothes. Even though Jungkook and Taehyung were ignoring them, they kept on getting more and more touchy.
One girl was specifically hitting on and flirting with Jungkook. Without asking she grabbed his bicep, touching it like a piece of meat, batting her eyelashes at him and laughing obnoxiously. It made Jungkook incredibly uncomfortable, but he was too shy to tell her to stop, even though he was drunk himself. No girl has ever been this forward with him and he wasn't sure if he really hated it or was actually enjoying it.
"Let's dance together,"one of the girls suggested.
"No, thank you ladies,"Taehyung politely declined.
"Come,"the girl ignored Taehyung and took Jungkook's hand, pulling him up to dance with her.
"Sorry, he's taken,"Taehyung pushed her hand away without trying to be gentle.
"Really playboy?"she giggled. "Where's your girl then?"she raised her eyebrow at Jungkook.
"There's no girl, just me...he's mine," Taehyung stood up, towering over her.
The girl got confused.
Taehyung saw that it wasn't clear of an explanation so he, pulled Jungkook to his feet and plunged his tongue deep into his mouth, kissing him passionately.
"Oh my God...gross..."she said with a disgusted face.
"Really?"Taehyung asked her, looking scary as ever.
"Whatever,"she waved her hand, turned on her heel and walked away along with the other girls.
"You're not his type anyway,"Taehyung shouted.
The girl turned around and flipped him off.
Taehyung focused his attention to Jungkook. "Have I not said it clearly?"his voice was rough,"I hate cheaters. Understood?"
Jungkook nodded. "Tae, can we go? I'm too tired."
"Okay," Taehyung put his arm around Jungkook possessively and after hours spent dancing, they left the club.
"What now?"Jungkook asked outside, glad that he could finally get some fresh air.
"It's past midnight. We will have to take a taxi to get to our hotel, it would take too long and it will be too expensive. Plus I don't know what to do about the car. It was a mistake for me to drink."
"Hyung, you worry too much. Let's just sleep in the car."
"We could do that...It won't be very comfortable though."
"I don't care. Do you?"
"At this point, I don't think we have other options. Maybe we can try and look for a free room in some hotel nearby...but I can't be bothered to do that."
"Then it's decided."
Their Mustang was parked below a large tree on the outskirts of the city near a quiet side road. The night was cold and they were both glad to get inside the car.
"Today was crazy,"Jungkook sighed.
"Yeah,"Taehyung started laughing, with Jungkook joining in.
"If only life could be this simple. And each day we could be this happy."
"We can try to be happy whilst there's still time."
There was silence. Jungkook slowly moved to the other side, climbing on top of Taehyung, behind the wheel. He straddled him and started kissing him hungrily.
"Fuck, I want you again," Taehyung grunted.
"I was expecting you to say that."
                
            
        "How was it?"Taehyung asked, running fingers through Jungkook's hair.
"It was intense, but amazing. I had no idea that something like this could feel so amazing...You are so good at this, hyung...I have to say, you just know what you're doing..."Jungkook sighed, drawing circles on Taehyung's smooth chest. "Did you enjoy it too?"
"It felt great...I would be lying if I said that I wouldn't want a second round...But I think it was quite enough for you, at least for now."
"We can try tomorrow."
"Look at you, getting a taste for men all of a sudden?"Taehyung poked him.
"It's only you...and stop teasing me hyung! If you want to have sex again, stop with the teasing!"
"Oh, so now I have to ask nicely?"Taehyung kept teasing him. "Wasn't it you, who wanted oppa up his ass?"
Jungkook pushed him away, angry and embarrassed at the same time. He wanted to defend himself, but he was too tired for that. Instead he grabbed some tissues and wiped all the cum from himself.
"We totally messed up..."he looked at his hyung, who was watching him with a smile on his lips.
"Yeah."
"Our promise to not cross boundaries of a friendship...it didn't last long."
"I know."
"It's all my fault, I started it all."
"I'm glad you did. I've gotten too cautious over time, I don't think I would've initiated anything. I would probably try to avoid you, just as you were doing for weeks. Or who knows...maybe I wouldn't be able to resist you for long."
"I was wondering,"Jungkook asked after the cleanup, hugging his knees, bringing them to his chest,"you've done it with a guy before, right?"
"Yes."
"With me...was it any different? Did it feel better or worse when you compare it,"Jungkook was cringing at the thought of Taehyung being with someone else. Especially when it came to being intimate with someone, that was making him furious.
Just the idea of someone else putting hands on him makes me crazy. Lips which are not mine, kissing his. Someone else making him laugh, hugging him, holding his hands...I hate it all...
"It was great, but I can't compare it properly."
"Why not?"
"Because I've always been the bottom with the other guys."
"Bottom?"
"Yeah, the one taking it up the ass."
"Oh..."
He said guys, not just one guy...so that means he'd had multiple partners...Well, should I be even surprised?
It was hard to believe that Taehyung, who in Jungkook's eyes came across as more dominant was willing to do something like that. He must've really liked his partner...or partners...God, I don't even want to imagine with how many people he has slept...Jungkook couldn't help the pang of jealousy. We are almost the same age, yet he has so much more experience and knowledge about pretty much everything...What have I been doing with my life?
"So this was your first time doing it this way? Not bottom way?"
"As a top, yes," Taehyung seemed shy after admitting it.
"Do you like it the other way better?"
"I'm fine with everything. However, I've always wanted to try it like this. Especially when it comes to you, I've been imagining us together for quite a while. Every time I would jerk off, I would imagine doing it with you."
What?! No way...Jungkook blushed, suddenly not knowing what to do with himself. He gave him a shy smile. He really imagined me and him doing it? That's really hard to believe, but why would he lie? And it's not like I haven't been thinking about doing the same things with him...
"You did a great job for the first time then. To me, it seemed like you must've practiced a lot."
"It's not much different than doing it with a girl."
"Oh,"Jungkook completely forgot that Taehyung had experience with both genders. The idea of him being with a girl made him even more jealous. "I wouldn't know much about that,"he remarked, trying to not let his emotions show. "So are you basically saying, that it wasn't all that special?"
"Pabo...Do you want to know a secret?"
Jungkook shrugged, he doubted that anything Taehyung would say to him, could make him feel better.
"No?"
Jungkook shrugged again, acting disinterested.
"I know you're jealous, you're doing that tongue thing."
"What tongue thing?"
"Putting your tongue against the inside of your cheek. You should try to be a little bit less obvious,"Taehyung laughed.
What is he talking about? I'm not jealous...he can sleep with whoever he wants, I don't care. He huffed and crossed his arms tighter around his knees, resting his chin on top.
"You still haven't answered, do you want to know the secret?"
"I don't care about any of your secrets..."Jungkook wanted this conversation to end.
Taehyung sat up, leaned in and whispered into his ear,"you're tighter than any girl I've ever been with."
Jungkook was speechless. Never have I imagined that I will be hearing something like this.
"It's late, we better get some sleep, we have two more days on this island. We need to regain our energy,"Taehyung took a deep breath.
"I don't want to go anywhere, I just want to be with you, that's enough for me."
"Oh you're not grumpy anymore?"he laughed.
Jungkook lifted his finger up to Taehyung's mouth, silencing him. "Remember no more butt sex for you, if you don't behave hyung."
"Alright, I give up. I wouldn't want to miss out on that...but it was fun teasing you. Anyway, do you want to stay here in the hotel tomorrow?"
"Can we do that?"
"Of course. We might get a bit bored though."
"I don't think I can be bored when you're around."
"We can certainly have fun in the bed,"Taehyung winked at him.
"Actually, I want to go somewhere, it seems like a waste to be staying inside."
"Oh no, now I have to beg Kookie to have sex?"
"Maybe,"he smirked,"I think I just found your weak spot."
"You alone are my week spot, you've been one for quite a while in case you haven't noticed," he stood up and walked to the bathroom, splashed his face with cold water and brushed his teeth. He put on bathrobe,"do you think there will be stars up on the sky?"
"Isn't it too cloudy? It was raining so much."
Taehyung slided the balcony door open,"it's not raining anymore,"he stepped out into the night. A cold air blew into the room, Jungkook pulled a blanket over his bare legs. "Thy sky has cleared up, come look Jungkookie,"he heard Taehyung's voice from the outside.
"It's too cold,"Jungkook whined.
"You won't be able to see stars like this in Seoul, there's almost no light pollution here."
Jungkook didn't want to move from the bed, but after Taehyung kept calling, he wrapped himself in the blanket and stood up. He winced right away, feeling a dull pain deep inside. It hurt even more when he tried to make a step. He bent over slightly, trying to relieve the pain, when suddenly he felt something even stranger.
Oh God. He forgot about the fact that Taehyung came inside him. Of course, it has to get out somehow. He limped to get more tissues. Good thing that he doesn't have to see this. He put down the blanket and gently tried to clean himself again. How the hell do I get it all out?! The mixture of Taehyung's cum and lube was running down his inner thigh. I guess I have a lot of questions to ask...Hyung expects me to know everything...Well, isn't it what I wanted? To come across as experienced? It's safe to say that I'm not fooling anyone... He threw away all the tissues, praying that no more gloopy liquid would leak out of him.
He braced the cold night air after Taehyung kept nagging him to come outside on the balcony. His jaw dropped, there were countless stars scattered up on the sky and their reflection down on the surface of the sea. He shivered, so Taehyung came behind him and hugged him, sharing his body heat.
"That's really interesting,"Taehyung's deep voice resounded against his neck, giving him goosebumps,"two constellations are shining really bright tonight,"he grabbed Jungkook's hand, wrapping his fingers around and lifted it up. He made him stretch his arm and moved it up across the sky as a cursor. "That one,"he narrowed Jungkook's index finger on a bright group of stars. He outlined the shape of the constellation,"that's Virgo, your zodiac sign and one of the largest constellations in the southern hemisphere."
"It doesn't look like anything,"Jungkook was straining his eyes too see something in the constellation.
"It's this way, can you see it? It's a virgin lying down, with head towards the east."
"Oh, I can kind of see it now, that's cool."
"Now, what's really unusual is that the other constellation shining particularly bright is right next to it,"he moved his finger and outlined a much smaller constellation. "That's Corvus."
"Looks like a distorted square."
"Yeah, but its name in Latin means crow."
"What?!"Jungkook put his hand down quickly.
It can't be...
"It was a sacred bird of Apollo, but one time Apollo got so angry, that he burned all of its feathers. That's why, according to the legend all crows have black feathers now."
"I hate crows."
"You do? Well, it's just a legend...the constellation is still pretty."
"No, I don't like that one,"Jungkook shuddered. "Where's your zodiac sign?"his eyes were trying to find something else to look at.
"Capricorn? It's not visible now, you have to wait for spring. I always try to search for it at night, every time I spot it, it makes me feel happy, but sad at the same time...it's hard to explain."
"Is there something else?"
"Let's see,"Taehyung pointed his finger to the other side of the horizon. "That there is Cepheus, who married Cassiopeia right next to it, and at the end, it's not really visible but there should be their daughter Andromeda."
"Hyung, how do you know so much about this?
"I've spent many hours looking up at the sky, connecting the stars, creating images in my head."
"I've done the same, but never bothered to learn anything about the actual constellations or mythology."
"I find it quite interesting..."
"But those stories, they are not true, right?"
"Well, they are called myths...maybe for a reason, but I can't say for sure. However what I can say for sure is that you're shining really bright tonight."
"You're soo cheesy, hyung."
"But Virgo really is bright tonight! And also that scary scary black crow,"he put his fingertips together, creating a beak and jokingly pecked Jungkook's arm.
"Stop it!"he got chills, possibly from the cold air, but he knew that the reason for that was different.
"Jungkookie, do you want to take a bath? We have a pretty large bathtub here, I think both of us will fit in it,"Taehyung back hugged him again, seeing that Jungkook really didn't like his joke.
"It seems like all we do here is soaking ourselves in water."
"Well, I'm running a bath whether you'll join me or not,"he kissed his nape and went inside.
Jungkook scowled one last time at the crow constellation and followed Taehyung. "Wait a minute, Jimin-hyung gave me something." It hurt again when he squatted down to his suitcase. He ignored the pain and rummaged through his stuff. "He gave me some bath thingies. He said that he bough them for someone as a gift, but won't need them anymore. I thought that they smelled nice, so I took them,"he pulled out a paper bag filled with bath bombs. He heard that Taehyung turned on the water faucet in the bathroom.
"So you're joining me?"Taehyung asked him when he Jungkook brought the bag. He wasn't ashamed in the slightest, standing there naked in front of him, his bathrobe tossed in the floor. He noticed that Jungkook was limping. "Are you sore?"he looked at him concerned.
"A little bit..."
"The bath will help."
"We need more bubbles,"he handed him the bag, avoiding looking at his body.
"You can look all you want."
"No thanks."
Taehyung grinned and took the bag, he then dumped its content into the tub, making the water fizz and bubble right away.
"You're not supposed to use them all at once!"
"You wanted bubbles..."Taehyung looked at him innocently.
"Aish, hyung..."
"Am I annoying you?"Taehyung smiled widely.
"No,"Jungkook crossed his arms, wrapping the blanket tighter around him.
"You don't even look at me..."Taehyung pouted.
Jungkook briefly looked him up and down, feeling the heat spreading all over his body, reaching his face.
"It makes me think that you don't like what you see."
"Oh I like everything,"he muttered quietly. "You're handsome and you bloody well know it. You don't need others to tell you that."
"Maybe I do...I like hearing it. And I like my lover looking at my body...Actually, I prefer lovemaking with the lights on, I'm easily visually stimulated, but I knew you'd be too shy for that."
"Feeding your ego,"Jungkook rolled his eyes.
"A little bit,"Taehyung grinned. "So,"he sighed dramatically,"you find me handsome, but what about my body?"
I swear...he keeps asking me that...obviously wanting to hear compliments, nothing else. I wonder how he would react if I completely roasted him. But how could I? This perfection in front of me? Let him have it his way...
Jungkook mustered the courage and let his eyes feed on the sight of his beautiful body, taking in all the details. "Has anyone ever told you, that you have a perfect example of an S-line body? It's just curved so nicely."
"I've heard that before,"he had a smug look on his face.
"You probably turn all the straight guys gay."
"Think so?"
"Well, you turned me gay,"Jungkook chuckled. Admitting it wasn't making him uncomfortable anymore, it was becoming a part of him. I guess my sexuality has always been a part of me, but I was ignoring it.
He let the blanket drop from his shoulders and crossed the distance between them to hug his hyung. He ran his hands over his body. So hot... His fingertips trailed over his back, which was turned towards the bathroom mirror. Jungkook looked at the reflection. His butt is just exquisite. He placed his hands on each cheek. "You're thick,"Jungkook giggled.
"Are you fat shaming me?" Taehyung sounded offended.
"Not at all...I love it,"he squeezes his butt playfully. His eyes followed the line of Taehyung's spine up. "Oh my God, did I do that?"he turned Taehyung around to see properly. There were angry looking scratch marks all over his back.
"What?"Taehyung turned back trying to see what Jungkook was talking about in the mirror. "Ah...you definitely went wild and did a number on my poor back."
"I didn't even realize..."
"I take it that it felt good, if you weren't able to control yourself."
"I won't do it again...at least I'll try not to."
"I don't mind. You for sure marked me as yours,"he laughed. "Just wait for tomorrow, I'm pretty sure I marked you as well."
"Huh?"Jungkook turned around quickly, twisting his neck, trying to spot scratches on his back, but his skin was smooth, untouched. "What did you do?" The only thing out of the ordinary was his slightly red butt.
"You'll see,"he smirked,"come, the water will get cold." Taehyung went into the bubble bath first, offering a hand to Jungkook and helping him not to slip.
Then they both found a comfortable position in the tub, enjoying the relaxing warmth and playing with the bubbles. "I'm so tired, I'm going to fall asleep here,"Jungkook said after Taehyung finished massaging his shoulder.
It didn't take long and Jungkook really fell asleep on Taehyung's chest. His hyung didn't move, for as long as it was comfortable, letting Jungkook sleep on him. After about half an hour he got bored so he woke him up, you're skin is getting all wrinkled."
Jungkook woke up confused,"but I don't want to, your chest is so comfy."
"Our bed is also comfy."
"I'll sleep here."
"No you can't, come on help me, you're too heavy,"Taehyung was trying to free himself from underneath Jungkook.
Jungkook reluctantly climbed out, ignoring the fact that he could slip on the bathroom tiles and fall down at any moment.
"Jungkookie, be careful,"Taehyung's protective instinct kicked in, as Jungkook stumbled across the bathroom. "Wait, you need to shower to rinse away-"
"I just took a bath hyung, why would I do that?"
"Because you are covered in glitter!" Taehyung watched him in disbelief.
"At least I'm fabulous,"Jungkook replied half asleep. He lazily dried himself, brushed his teeth and waddled naked to the bed.
Taehyung shook his head and smiled to himself, he just loved him too much. He followed Jungkook shortly after, once he drained the bathtub. He went all around the room and blew out the candles one by one. He then quietly climbed under the soft, warm covers. "Are you sleeping?"he whispered.
"No."
Taehyung tucked him in and swiped his damp hair from his forehead. "Thank you for everything Jungkookie...It's been an amazing day, you made me feel so alive."
"You're welcome,"Jungkook mumbled and stretched his arms, inviting Taehyung into his embrace. "You smell so nice, Tae,"he snuggled in closer.
"You smell exactly the same..."
"Do I?"
"Yes, we were in the same bath together. Don't you remember?"
"Yeah, you marked me, that's why I smell like you."
Taehyung sighed,"exactly, everyone who gets claimed by me ends up smelling like jasmine, citrus and bubblegum."
"I knew it."
"Sleep well my baby boy."
"Where's my goodnight kiss?"
"Oh of course, how could I forget that,"Taehyung planted a kiss on his forehead.
"Don't wake me up in the morning."
"I won't. You can sleep as much as you want."
"Nighty night Taeddy."
"Teddy?"
"Tae daddy."
"Sweet dreams Kookie bun."
They were both tired from the long day, and fell asleep quickly.
Taehyung woke up at dawn with the first rays of sunshine. He didn't get up, instead he watched Jungkook sleeping soundly on his belly next to him. He couldn't help but smile, seeing his adorable boy, mouth open, hair messy, his hands folded under his head, squishing his soft cheeks, still covered in glitter. More and more light poured into the room, making Jungkook squint his eyes and scrunch his nose.
"Good morning,"Taehyung said to him.
"Morning,"Jungkook rubbed his eyes,"what time is it?"
"Nine o'clock. Did you sleep well?"Taehyung picked a loose eyelash from his cheek.
"Yeah."
"No bad dreams?"
"None."
"I held you close, so I knew you'll sleep well."
"Thanks,"Jungkook opened his eyes.
"Have I told you that you have such beautiful eyes."
"There's nothing special about them."
"They are so big and round and they sparkle...Bambi eyes."
"Your eyes are prettier."
Taehyung smiled and lovingly touched his chin. "How are you feeling?"
"Okay."
"Does it still hurt?"
Jungkook shifted under the covers and stretched his body, he was still feeling that dull pain,"a little bit...I'll be fine."
Taehyung kissed him on the lips,"I should've been more careful."
"I'm tougher than you think, hyung."
"Sure,"Taehyung chuckled and reached for the phone. "I don't know how about you, but I don't feel like going down to the lobby for breakfast."
"Me neither."
"What would you like to eat?"Taehyung dialed the room service.
"Banana milk."
"For breakfast?"
"Yes."
"Okay then, a banana milk for the tough baby boy."
Jungkook drifted back to sleep as Taehyung ordered way more food than his boy requested, knowing his appetite. When he heard a knock on the door, he went to open it, dressed in his robe. Jungkook was still sleeping naked in bed, with only his bottom half covered up by a duvet.
The room service employee rolled in a table filled with all kinds of delicious, sweet and savory breakfast food, plus few small bottles of banana milk. He was about to turn around and walk out, when he noticed that Taehyung wasn't the only one staying in the hotel room. The employee's eyes lingered on the messy bed and the half naked Jungkook sleeping in it. Then he looked back on Taehyung, then back to Jungkook, not knowing how to react.
"Is there a problem?"Taehyung asked, his voice low, piercing the guy with his cold eyes.
"No sir, enjoy your breakfast,"the employee bowed and rushed out.
Right after the employee crossed the doorstep and was about to close the door, Taehyung arrogantly snapped his fingers at him.
"Yes, sir?"he turned around anxiously.
"We would like our sheets changed."
The employee nodded and quickly stumbled away. Taehyung closed the door, frowning and annoyed. He took a deep breath and when he looked at Jungkook, his face softened. He walked to him, gently shook his arm to wake him up and placed a tray of food in front of him.
"Breakfast in bed?"Jungkook asked.
"You deserve it," Taehyung smiled and turned on the TV, selecting a channel playing cartoons. He joined Jungkook in bed and together they ate the breakfast whilst watching the TV and cuddling lazily.
After finishing all the banana milk, Jungkook went to the bathroom. He looked into the mirror. What the hell? There was something on his neck. Is that an allergic reaction? From drinking too much yesterday? He leaned closer to the mirror and touched his neck. No, it looks bruised...Wait...is this from...hyung's kissing? Oh...so this is how he marked me...His face got flushed. What am I supposed to do now? It won't fade that quickly and everyone in school will see it.
Now that I think about it, it's not the first time I'm seeing something like this. He washed his face with cold water and patted it dry with a towel. That time...that bruise on Jimin-hyung's neck. It must've been from his girlfriend...why would he say to me that he doesn't know any girls then? Is he that protective? But now, she's making him unhappy or there's something clearly wrong...I just need to find out who she is.
"Is it Saturday today?"Jungkook looked at the wardrobe, trying to choose an outfit for the day, wishing that he had packed a turtleneck to cover all those hickeys.
"Yes. Have you decided what you want to do?"
"It's not raining again is it?"he shot a look to the window. "Let's go somewhere."
"If you need to rest-"
"No, I want to see something new."
"Okay, then I think we should check out Jeju City or maybe Shinhwa World."
"Sounds good."
"If you feel okay, how about we go clubbing tonight?"
Jungkook burst out laughing,"I can't imagine you in a club, hyung."
"You don't have to imagine, you have a chance to see me on the dance floor with your own eyes."
"That is something I have to see at least once in my life."
"You'll be blown away by my moves, just you wait."
They got dressed, packed everything for the day and at noon they were ready for a new adventure on the small island.
"I'm so glad that it's not raining today, my other pair of shoes is still wet,"Jungkook said, putting the seatbelt on.
"It was raining enough yesterday...Anyway, to get to Jeju-si, we can drive around Hallasan from the western side and stop by Shinhwa amusement park first."
"That's a great idea."
Taehyung started the car,"I don't think there will be many people now and it's not a huge amusement park, so even if we go on all the rides, we wouldn't spend more than three hours there."
"Oh, we're definitely going on all the rides,"Jungkook said excited.
They arrived at the amusement park in the afternoon, the sun was shining and there were no signs of rain. Just as Taehyung predicted, the park wasn't packed full, so they didn't have to wait in line for any of tickets.
First they went on some of the smaller rides, then on the roller coaster. Then they decided to walk around a bit, hand in hand, checking out the souvenirs and getting churros from one of the snack bars. After their dizziness subsided, it was time for more rides and then a late lunch at the bistro. Jungkook got some pizza and Taehyung some stir fried noodles.
"We have to go to the Lotte World too,"Jungkook suggested.
"Wouldn't you mind going there with me?"
"Why would I mind?"
"Here, it's different. People don't know us. But if we went to the Lotte World back in Seoul together, someone who knows us, let's say from school might see us. Wouldn't you mind? Would you still hold my hand?"
"I don't know,"Jungkook admitted. "Would it be bad is someone from school saw us?"
"They would spread rumors. Rumors about you, Jungkookie. The new transfer student holding hands with a guy. Would you be okay with that?"
"Technically there's nothing wrong with that."
"You're right, but you know that no one would be looking at it from that point of view."
"Would you mind those sort of rumors."
"Trust me, there's been so much stuff said about me at school, that I wouldn't care at all."
"Well then I don't care either. I might as well hold your hand at school too."
"I wouldn't let you."
"Why not?"
"Because I don't want you to get bullied."
"I can defend myself."
"I know you can. But the thought of anyone saying something nasty to you, making fun of you, calling you names or trying to hit you makes my blood boil."
"I feel the same way about you, hyung."
Taehyung sighed,"you know, I love you so much."
"I love you more."
After the lunch they checked out the remaining rides and at last went on the merry-go-round. When it was time for them to leave, Taehyung bought a bunny balloon for Jungkook and some cotton candy as a snack for the remaining ride to the Jeju City.
"We have time for one additional stop before we get to the city, when I was looking the map, I saw there's this hedge maze called Kimnyoung. I think it will be fun to go there. "
"I've always wanted to go to one of those,"Jungkook stuffed the balloon inside the car.
"Shall we have another bet? The one who finds the way out of the maze first pays for the dinner."
"I feel bad for your wallet, hyung."
"You might be speaking too soon, bunny. My sense of orientation is way better than yours."
"Isn't it about who's faster?"
"Slow and steady wins the race."
"It wasn't me who was paying for yesterday's dinner."
"It wasn't me who was getting his butt spanked," Taehyung winked at him and started driving towards their destination.
Jungkook knew that it was time for him to shut up.
"There's also Loveland on the way, it could be interesting."
"Loveland? What's that?"
"It's something like a park...park of love, depicting many forms of physical love to be precise."
"Wait...I...I think I've heard of it,"Jungkook suddenly remembered that he once read about Jeju's park filled with sculptures representing various sexual positions. "I don't want to go there."
"Just as I was expecting,"Taehyung chuckled.
They arrived at Kimnyoung Maze in the late afternoon. Before that, they had stopped briefly at 7-Eleven to grab a coffee and buy some water.
"The maze closes at six, so we better hurry,"Taehyung said stepping out of the car.
Jungkook stretched his legs, ready to run through the maze. He went over to an information panel, briefly scanning the plan of the maze. "It says here that there are four different ways to get through the maze. We should both start at the same spot and go opposite directions."
"Deal," Taehyung also went over the plan, trying to memorize it.
They walked side by side to the starting point. "May the better one win,"Jungkook smirked.
"Oh I don't like loosing."
"Me neither,"without any warning, Jungkook bolted out, choosing a path on the right side. He heard Taehyung's cursing behind him, but he didn't care. All I need to do is go forward, get as far as possible from the starting point and then find the exit...easy.
What seemed really easy in his mind turned out to be lot more difficult in reality. He got to the central part of the maze and got confused. Where did I come from? From the front? Is that the start? Oh fuck, I should've paid more attention...The sun was starting to set, he heard footsteps and he knew that it was no one else but Taehyung. Without giving it a second thought, he started running away in the opposite direction.
This time Taehyung followed, running after him. "You're a cheater!"he heard from behind a hedge beside him.
"Hyung, for you, slow and steady wins the race..."he started sprinting. "You shouldn't care whether I cheated or no-"
Taehyung emerged from behind a corner in front of him and before Jungkook could react, his hyung put his foot in front of him and tripped him. He hit the graveled path hard.
"Ouch, what are you doing?!"
Taehyung was on top of him in a second, he pinned him down and growled into his ear,"I hate cheaters." Without helping Jungkook, he turned around and ran away somewhere into the maze.
"Fuck,"Jungkook cursed out loud. Why did this suddenly turn so competitive? It's getting darker, without any light, finding the way out will be impossible. After what seemed like hours, he finally found a way out and the next thing he knew, he was paying for a delicious dinner in Jeju City.
After the dinner, they strolled through the busy and lively streets near the City Hall area, looking at different shops and street vendors. Later in the night, they went back to the car, Taehyung handed Jungkook a blazer which he had packed. "Put this on."
"Why?"
"You better look nice if you're going clubbing with me," Taehyung also put on one of his well fitting blazer.
Jungkook sighed and put on Taehyung's blazer, it was a bit large on him, but Taehyung looked satisfied, so that was enough for him. His hyung offered him a hand, which he accepted, a little bit unsure and together they headed for the Dome nightclub. People were giving them looks, but neither Taehyung nor Jungkook cared at this point.
"Because I'm driving I won't be able to drink tonight. Feel free to get whatever drink you want for yourself though," Taehyung said after waiting in line and finally getting inside the nightclub with blasting music.
Jungkook had a taste for something sweet, so he went and ordered some strawberry daiquiri.
Taehyung just got orange juice,"I wasn't expecting so many people here."
"Well at least we know where all the people go at night...Tae, you have to try this, it's delicious,"Jungkook pushed the straw to Taehyung's mouth.
"I can't Jungkookie."
"Just a sip, you like strawberries!"Jungkook was persistent. Normally he would be against it, but tonight he wanted to let loose.
"Okay, just a sip," Taehyung tried the drink.
"Loosen up, let's just have fun. We won't have a chance like this again."
Taehyung gave up and ordered the same exact drink for himself.
"What do you say Tae, shall we hit the dance floor?" Jungkook grinned.
Taehyung grabbed his arm and pulled him into the swarming crowd of people as a response. The air was hot, the music loud, the strobe lights and the alcohol making them dizzy. The world was spinning as they started to move to the rhythm of the beat.
Jungkook had his eyes only on Taehyung. The way he moved his body was hot and seductive, he looked like a definition of a bad boy. He needed to get closer, his body matching Taehyung's, their hips matching the same melody just as they were doing last night. The crowd disappeared, it was only two of them, the music was gone, only their fast breathing remained. Taehyung grabbed his waist and they continued grinding against each other until a new song came on. They changed the rhythm, learning each other's moves to create a perfect harmony.
After couple of upbeat songs and few more drinks a slow romantic one came on. Taehyung didn't hesitate to put his hands back on Jungkook's waist and the younger one instinctively put his hands on his shoulders. They were staring deeply into each other's eyes, bodies touching, making the crow disappear once again.
"I love you,"Taehyung said into Jungkook's ear.
"I love you too,"Jungkook rested his head on Taehyung's chest, whilst slowly swaying with the song.
No one paid attention to them except few girls, who got closer to them as they were sitting down, resting. Those girls were clearly drunk, wearing heavy makeup, dressed in skimpy clothes. Even though Jungkook and Taehyung were ignoring them, they kept on getting more and more touchy.
One girl was specifically hitting on and flirting with Jungkook. Without asking she grabbed his bicep, touching it like a piece of meat, batting her eyelashes at him and laughing obnoxiously. It made Jungkook incredibly uncomfortable, but he was too shy to tell her to stop, even though he was drunk himself. No girl has ever been this forward with him and he wasn't sure if he really hated it or was actually enjoying it.
"Let's dance together,"one of the girls suggested.
"No, thank you ladies,"Taehyung politely declined.
"Come,"the girl ignored Taehyung and took Jungkook's hand, pulling him up to dance with her.
"Sorry, he's taken,"Taehyung pushed her hand away without trying to be gentle.
"Really playboy?"she giggled. "Where's your girl then?"she raised her eyebrow at Jungkook.
"There's no girl, just me...he's mine," Taehyung stood up, towering over her.
The girl got confused.
Taehyung saw that it wasn't clear of an explanation so he, pulled Jungkook to his feet and plunged his tongue deep into his mouth, kissing him passionately.
"Oh my God...gross..."she said with a disgusted face.
"Really?"Taehyung asked her, looking scary as ever.
"Whatever,"she waved her hand, turned on her heel and walked away along with the other girls.
"You're not his type anyway,"Taehyung shouted.
The girl turned around and flipped him off.
Taehyung focused his attention to Jungkook. "Have I not said it clearly?"his voice was rough,"I hate cheaters. Understood?"
Jungkook nodded. "Tae, can we go? I'm too tired."
"Okay," Taehyung put his arm around Jungkook possessively and after hours spent dancing, they left the club.
"What now?"Jungkook asked outside, glad that he could finally get some fresh air.
"It's past midnight. We will have to take a taxi to get to our hotel, it would take too long and it will be too expensive. Plus I don't know what to do about the car. It was a mistake for me to drink."
"Hyung, you worry too much. Let's just sleep in the car."
"We could do that...It won't be very comfortable though."
"I don't care. Do you?"
"At this point, I don't think we have other options. Maybe we can try and look for a free room in some hotel nearby...but I can't be bothered to do that."
"Then it's decided."
Their Mustang was parked below a large tree on the outskirts of the city near a quiet side road. The night was cold and they were both glad to get inside the car.
"Today was crazy,"Jungkook sighed.
"Yeah,"Taehyung started laughing, with Jungkook joining in.
"If only life could be this simple. And each day we could be this happy."
"We can try to be happy whilst there's still time."
There was silence. Jungkook slowly moved to the other side, climbing on top of Taehyung, behind the wheel. He straddled him and started kissing him hungrily.
"Fuck, I want you again," Taehyung grunted.
"I was expecting you to say that."
