Tears well up in Jungkook's eyes, making him sob and wipe them away, "d-dun wan do that! Koo's scawed!"

Jungkook is shy, and by saying shy, you might think of a blush on someone's cheeks when they get compliments. Or speaking quietly and gradually getting louder after they meet someone new.

But Jungkook is different and everyone knows that. He's sensitive and cries when you ask him to say or do something. He stays in his room when people come over, heart pounding a million miles a minute until that person leaves. He hates going out in public, especially by himself. Hell, he doesn't even order for himself and he's 22. The poor baby doesn't even make eye contact most of the time. No matter how hard Taehyung tries, he can't get Jungkook to break out of his shell.

"Kooks, Jimin is coming over," is all it took for him to start shaking. Taehyung walks over to the boy who was busy drawing.

"Can you please try to stay downstairs this time, love? I think he would enjoy it. Who knows, you guys might be friends," he says gently, rubbing the scared boy's arm.

"D-don't wanna," he mumbles, keeping his eyes down as he starts to draw again.

"Baby, please? I think it'll be good for you to try. If it gets to be too much you can go upstairs. Try for a few minutes, yeah?" He says, rubbing Jungkook's back to calm him down. He nods silently, acquiescing. Taehyung smiles and kisses his head.

"Just squeeze my hand three times if you never need to take a breather, okay? I'll squeeze twice when I check on you," Jungkook nods again, going back to coloring his picture.

Around an hour passes, Jungkook getting more anxious as time goes on. He stops coloring when he hears the knocking on the front door.

"Baby, come here for me." Taehyung calls to him, going to open the door. The timid boy stands a little behind him, looking down at the ground when a happy Jimin walks in.

"Hey, Tae! How are you?" He greets, hugging him tight.

"Who is this, Tae?" Jimin says, looking at Jungkook with a soft smile on his face.

"This is Jungkook, he's the boyfriend I told you about." He says, holding his hand and bringing him forward.

"H-hi," he mumbles, tripping over the simple word. He feels the tears coming already.

"Hey, I'm Jimin! It's really nice to meet you. I hope you've been taking care of Taehyung for me," he jokes, laughing and putting his hand on Jungkook's shoulder. He visibly tenses, gulping and backing away while smiling slightly.

"Chim, I'm sorry I didn't tell you before, but Jungkook can be a little shy. Just be patient please," he says, holding Jungkook close to him and squeezing his hand once to let him know he's there.

"Of course! I'm sorry, Jungkook. I'll be more careful from now on. One of my friends Yoongi took a long time to open up. I still hope we can be friends," he smiles brightly and replies.

"'S okay," Jungkook speaks in a voice barely audible.

"So come inside and sit! I'll make you something if you need it," Taehyung says. Jimin steps in while Jungkook makes a bee line to his spot on the couch; the right side. He curls up in his spot, arms around him and lays his head down. He doesn't want to talk. Jimin sits in a chair a little across from him, not starting a conversation until Taehyung is there to break the awkward ice.
