Taehyung's POV

"What?"

He asked me, eyes wide in surprise.
"I-I mean, if you want to, we can share my bed.. I don't mind.." I stammered, feeling like I'd messed up.. or something like that.  

What if he was weirded out by me now? But when I look at him, he didn't appear weirded out, just a little taken aback.  

That was a relief.  

"Are you sure Tae?"

"I think I'm pretty sure."  

".....Well.. I don't mind either.. So I guess.. We can share?"  

"Yep, so now that's settled. No more arguing about who'll sleep on the couch."  

"Yeah."  

"Mhm. Wait, weren't you gonna call your parents now?"  

"Huh? Oh yeah-"  

We were interrupted by a loud ring from his phone. And he answered it right when he saw that it was his Mom. Perfect timing.

"Oh hey Mom! I was just about to call you now!" He said with a cheerful tone and his adorable bunny grin.  

"Ahh, I see! Well, what're you upto honey? How's everything going?"

I heared his Mom say, with an equally cheerful tone. The call was on speaker so I could hear everything pretty clearly.

 "Everything is going fine, Uni is going pretty well, My friends and I are almost always in touch and I'm currently at Taehyung's home!"

"Ooh you mean the one who you always talk about? Is he near you honey?"
 I saw him blush a bright pink, and I just giggled at him and answered his mom for him.  

"Yes Mrs. Jeon, I'm actually right by his side."  

"Oh my, hi sweetie, It's nice to finally talk to you! Jungkook always talks about you and his other friends, good things of course. But I guess he's gotten pretty attached to you as he talks about you a bit more."  

"Ooh I see. Nice to know that he thinks good of me." I replied, chuckling as I looked at Jungkook.  

"Isn't it quite late there boys? And are you planning to go home now Jungkook-ah?"  

"Well, a certain someone was begging me to stay over for one night-"

 "Hey! I didn't 'beg' you, it was simply a request!"

 "Yeah yeah, whatever you say Tae. Anyways, so, that. And I decided to stay the night."  

"Ohh so a sleepover, hmm? That's nice! And Kook, do you think we can switch to FaceTime? I wanna see you and Taehyungie."

 He looked at me, asking for permission to do so using his eyes. I just nodded while smiling at him.  

"Okay Ma, hang on a sec-" He switched to video call, and I saw a beautiful middle-aged lady on the screen.

Jungkook's pretty doe eyes and fair complexion were inherited from his Mom, as I could see.

 He adjusted his phone so that both of us were visible to her. I smiled brightly and waved at her.  

"Ah hello sweetie! It's nice to see you now! And oh my, aren't you a handsome young man!"
 I could only blush and chuckle at that. I shook my head, denying her statement.  
"No, I'm not that good looking, definitely not when compared with your son!"  

"What're you talking about, you're like a walking greek god-"  

"A what now-"  

"Nevermind that, just know that you're pretty good looking yourself! I would even say that you're more handsome than me!"
