It had been over a week since Taehyung started visiting Jungkook at his workplace. It was the same routine, Taehyung would come and order two of the same drinks and jungkook would never join the older. The only good thing about it was both Taehyung  and Jungkook would bring in alot of customers just by being in the cafe.

Jungkook would seldom reply and have a conversation with the older guy. Give the tiniest smile every once in a while when the older cracks absurd jokes but rest had not changed. Jungkook was reserve as ever, Taehyung swears he never met anyone so stubborn before

Here they were, sitting face to face in the cafe as Jungkook types away on his laptop and Taehyung is going on and on about his friends abroad. Jungkook had no interest in engaging in the convo because it would mean he was interested in forming any type of relationship with the older. He didn't want to give a false hope to the older about them possibly being friends.

Jungkook had no time for anyone other than himself. His plates were full. And when he says full, it was FULL full. His part time jobs, studies AND his personal problems were already  too much for him.

"You are beautiful" Taehyung said making Jungkook stop typing. The younger gulped and looked up facing the older guy with a raised brows

"What?" He asked making Taehyung point at younger's face

"You are naturally beautiful, you don't need make up you know? I mean obviously I'm no one to judge you for what you do in your life. I'm just saying " Taehyung explained himself so he doesn't offend Jungkook in any way

Jungkook stared at the older for a moment before he got back to typing on his laptop like they never had this conversation.

Taehyung didn't speak further. he just sat and watched the younger type away.  the silence between them wasn't awkward at all, it was as if the sole purpose of them coming together was to just be there. for each other. But this silence was different, usually Taehyung would be doing his own thing or on his phone but today, he was just silently watching the younger.

Jungkook couldn't brush it off, the nerves in his body wouldn't allow him to type another sensible word. it was all gibberish, so he stopped and sighed. And when he looked up, there the problem of his malfunction was, staring right back at him. their eyes met bit it wasn't anything romantic, it was as if they have done it a million times before.

"what do you want?" Jungkook asked and Taehyung just shrugged sipping loudly on his drink.

"nothing" the older said making Jungkook groan tiredly

"stop it and spill now. you keep staring like a perv, it's making me uncomfortable" Jungkook complained as he grabbed the untouched drink for the first time in weeks of Taehyung buying it and taking it away when the younger didn't even spare a glance at it

"oh? I bought that drink" Taehyung said as he pointed at the drink in the younger's hand, Jungkook inhale a mouthful and hummed with a gulp

"you bought it for me though, so it's mine" Jungkook said as he continued sipping on it and at that moment, something warm spread in the order's chest.

"a progress" Taehyung said with a genuine smile, Jungkook looked at the older with a raised brows in confusion

"I made a pro- no no, WE made a progress today. wow. I'm proud of myself rightnow" Taehyung said as he patted himself on the shoulder making Jungkook roll his eyes jokingly

"anyways, you should go now. my shift is almost over and I need to be somewhere else. so if you could just" Jungkook said as he gathered his belonging and gestured the older towards the door

"wait- already? oh man, the time sure does go by so easily when I'm with you" Taehyung said as he threw a cheesy wink towards the younger but the latter showed no sign of being effected by his words

"B-O-R-I-N-G~ anyways, my best friend's birthday is coming up soon and he wants us to attend. you know best friend right? park Jimin? the short litt-"

"I know who he is Taehyung. I knew him before I knew you" Jungkook said as he started cleaning up around the place and Taehyung grinned nodding

"okay okay, you are coming right?" Taehyung asked excitedly

"the answer is no but just so I don't sound rude, tell him I'll see if I can make it" Jungkook said not looking at the older once

"oh come on Jeon, stop being boring. please let's go, it's going to be so fun " Taehyung whined and even stomped a little and that made Jungkook stop in his track and slowly his face twisted into a confused and a little disgust

"did you just stomp rightnow? Jesus fucking christ" Jungkook said looking at the older in horror which made Taehyung burst out laughing

"I can't believe you just cursed rightnow. wow, Jimin is going to hear this all" Taehyung laughed as he finally finished gathering his stuff

"come on now, quick Jeon. are you coming or not?" Taehyung stood by the door waiting to leave after he hears the younger say yes and jungkook sighed.

"just let me know when and where, I'll see" He said as he walked to the back room, completely ignoring an excited shriek the older let's out and a couple of compliments towards the younger.

and when the place seems quiet and lonely, he smiles. a little bit he smiles. shaking his head

"he stomped" jungkook thinks as he pats his giddy stomach.
