Let's Get Things Straight | JiKook

The first thing that Jimin noticed when he woke up the next morning, was the brightly shining sun rays shining through the window and blinding him partially if he looked in that direction.

The second thing he noticed, was the arm wrapped around him, and the feeling of feathery strands of hair tickling his collarbone. He couldn't help but smile, cracking open one of his eyes to peek at his sleeping boyfriend. Jimin knew that he would never cease to be amazed by Jungkook's beauty.

The younger was absolutely breathtaking in Jimin's eyes, and although there had been time where Jimin was sure he would be better off without Jungkook, he knew now that he needed him. It wasn't that he depended on Jungkook to keep him happy, it was just that he had never been able to achieve such a high level of happiness without the younger.

And Jimin found himself chuckling softly, because not all that long ago the same person caused him tears that weren't of happiness. Caused a pain in his chest that he thought could be only be cured by forgetting about him. It's funny, how life works. He thought, watching as Jungkook shifted his position, a soft sigh escaping his lips.

He stretched his arms out, wrapping them around Jimin's waist and pulling him closer. It was the soft smile playing at his lips, that had the older aware that what he was doing was intentional.

"I know that you're awake, you idiot." He laughed, smile reaching up to his eyes when Jungkook pouted and slowly opened his eyes.

"Were you watching me?" Jungkook asked, voice thick with sleep and hair sticking up at various angles.

Jimin hesitated for a second, but he could feel the blush on his face and knew from Jungkook's smirk that the younger already knew the answer to his question.

"Not for long. I was just thinking about some things, and my gaze wondered to you." Jimin turned onto his side, so that he and Jungkook were laying face to face.

Jungkook raised an eyebrow, observing his boyfriend's expression now that their faces were so close. His eyes followed the pattern of the light, sparse freckles that dotted across his cheeks; Jimin had said that they only really came out in the summer, and Jungkook thought that they were almost too cute to handle.

He reached up, tracing the patterns with his index finger and playing an invisible game of "connect the dots".

"What were you thinking about?" Jungkook's voice was soft, and underneath his fingertips he could feel Jimin's face heating up from his touch.

"You, of course." Jimin smiled before sitting up, stretching his shoulders and sighing softly when one of his joints popped. "As always."

Jungkook couldn't help but smile, his heart beating a tad bit faster as he sat up and swung his legs over the side of the bed. He walked a few steps on the carpeted floor until he stood in front of where Jimin was still seated on his bed, leaning down and cupping Jimin's face with his hand.

"You're too adorable for me." He beamed, leaning closer and kissing the tip of the older's nose. "Come on, let's go get something to eat."

Jungkook grabbed hold of Jimin's  smaller hands and pulled him up off of the bed, intertwining their fingers when they both began to walk towards the door.

They walked out into the living room to find the couple from last night no longer there, but Yoongi's door was closed and it hasn't been when they last saw it, so it didn't take long to put two and two together.

The thought of somebody carrying his sleeping roommate to bed had Jungkook chuckling, because Yoongi had always said that he wasn't one for sappy relationship things.

"So Jungkook," Jimin began, leaning against the kitchen counter as Jungkook popped a few slices of toast into the toaster.

"So Jimin," Jungkook responded, opening the fridge door and rummaging around until he found the butter.

"I had a shoot earlier this week." Jungkook visibly tensed at the older's words, but nodded nonetheless, silently watching the toaster and waiting for the toast to pop up.

"And?" The younger asked, meeting Jimin's gaze and raising an eyebrow.

"It had me thinking," Jimin gulped, "About me and you."

Jungkook froze, not sure how to approach the situation. Surely this could only be good news, or Jimin wouldn't have been so comfortable with him. "I want to get a new job."

Jungkook's eyes visibly widened, and he opened his mouth to say something, but the only thing he could muster up was:

"O-Oh."

"It's just that... Doing porn was fine when I was single. I didn't have anyone to go home to or anything, so there wasn't anything hindering me from my job you know?" Jimin sighed. "But now I have you and... It doesn't feel right when someone who's not you touches me, which you can imagine causes a bit of an issue."

Jimin looked down, twiddling his thumbs. "I don't like coming to see you after work and it being the elephant in the room that I just had sex with another guy. I always go on about how I want to be with you and only you, but my current job contradicts that entire statement."

Jungkook nodded. The toast popped up, but he didn't bother taking it out as he thought of words to say.

"I... I've been thinking about that too you know." The younger replied. "I've seen your face when I'll come to see you and I smell like someone else, you just accept it and I don't want you to have to. It doesn't sit well with me when I kiss someone who isn't you, touch someone who isn't you."

He finally took the toast out of the toaster, setting both slices on a plate.
"I knew that I couldn't have this job forever, and I think it's time that I find something else that accounts for the change in my life."

"I'll stay at the bakery for now, unless I find something else. I could pull some strings and get you hired there, you know." Jimin laughs, walking forwards and resting his hands on Jungkook's hips.

He still thought that it was absolutely adorable how their outfits matched from last night, and maybe he'd see if Jungkook would wear matching outfits outside. He remembered seeing couples in matching outfits and being jealous of the cute behaviour, wanting someone who he could do such things with.

"Wow, I feel really special." The younger laughed, kissing the top of Jimin's head softly.

The older shrugged.

"It's because you are."
