As the sun set and the colour of the sky changed into beautiful shades of orange, pink and red, Taehyung laid on his bed, his legs crossed over one another and his phone gently lying in his palms.

As he looked outside, he could see how shiny the clouds were, all of a sudden. For a moment, it even seemed as if they were brighter than the sun itself, bringing attention to themselves with a strong shade of pink.

The brunette was just casually strolling around. On his phone, of course. He just checked his notifications on Instagram, Twitter, Snapchat and YouTube, not to forget, his private messages aswell. Being a regular teenager, it took him quite a while.

When he was done, he was eminently bored. He really didn't feel like doing anything. Hoseok was probably busy with dance practise and Jimin was probably taking a nap or watching some TV. Or doing his homework.

So, while thinking of what he could do, he checked out his phone's gallery. Mostly selfies, his photos with Hoseok and Jimin and then, photos of himself.
He suddenly felt like posting an Instagram picture.

So, he quickly selected the nicest picture he could find and went ahead to upload it:

taetaekim.95 i'm bored💘💘

Not thinking about anything specifically, he just kept scrolling around, liking random pictures and videos, cracking a smile every now and then.
Today was one of those days where he was just bored and didn't feel like doing anything except for hanging around on his phone, his mood was pretty glum.

And all of a sudden, he got a notification.

He let out a short gasp when he saw who it was, suddenly feeling himself get extremely attentive.

_jkkkkkkk
You look so beautiful😔
May i unbore you?

As soon as he read Jungkook's direct message, Taehyung subconsciously smiled. He would never admit it out loud but in all honesty, he was kind of glad to have befriended the younger boy and enjoyed their interactions.

You
thanks i guess

and well, sure...

He tried to sound as relaxed and unbothered as possible yet he couldn't deny the fact that his heart may or may not have fluttered a bit as he saw that Jungkook had called him beautiful.

Then again, his heart usually fluttered when receiving compliments. Nothing special at all. Also, friends hyping each other up was something completely normal!

_jkkkkkkk
Sooo, remember that kiss you owe me?
We should meet up sometimes and then you can pay your debt😚

The brunette gasped. "You...! We're supposed to be friends, why is he asking me for a kiss? Such a flirt... Do friends kiss each other's cheeks? Ugh, I don't know! And I hate breaking promises," he mumbled to himself.

But then, he felt the corners of his lips lift themselves and he let out a chuckle.
"I suppose he is kind of funny, though..." He started typing a response.

You
"pay your debts" my ass

why would you want a kiss from me anyways?

_jkkkkkkk
A debt is a debt😘
How about Saturday?

"Of fucking course, it's always the Saturdays...," the brunette mumbled with his chin propped in his palm, sitting up since he could feel a sudden rush of energy zooming throughout his whole body.

You
okay

so we're just meeting up so i can kiss your cheek?

_jkkkkkkk
Not necessarily
How about we have a date?
Hangout*

Taehyung gasped, not knowing how to respond. He actually didn't mind Jungkook's company that much so hanging out with him shouldn't be much of a problem. He actually looked forward to seeing him.
But why did he call it a date at first? Probably just a typo. Right?

You
sure thing

where do we meet up and
what do we do?

_jkkkkkkk
Give me your address and
I'll pick you up☺
We can go to Burger King

Taehyung frowned at that. Sure, hanging out at Burger King sounded fun but there is something he was extremely worried about. Something many teenagers tended to worry about.

You
uh i don't know...
a

fter my grandma staying over for a week and overfeeding all of us with cookies and cake, i don't know if that's the right place to eat

_jkkkkkkk
So? You can handle one more day eating unhealthy XD

Subconsciously, Taehyung smiled. Was Jungkook right? He tended to be a bit insecure at times, about his face, his personality, his body. His hair. Everything. Yet, of course he knew that these traits could not be changed and were irreplaceable. It was just those trivial insecurities that came every now and then. Completely normal.

Despite not having planned to spend time in a fast-food restaurant any time soon, hearing his newly acquainted friend offer so sweetly, he actually considered taking the offer.

Well, there wasn't any harm stuffing his face with fast food one more time.

So, he smiled sweetly and typed a reply:

You
thanks...
yeah, i'll go with you

every now and then can't
hurt me i guess

_jkkkkkkk
Great!!🤩🤩
Now just give me your address so I can pick you up at eleven sharp

You
ugh fine

just don't stalk me or anything!
*address inserted*

_jkkkkkkk
No promises😉

You
j

erk.

Weirdly enough, the corners of Taehyung's lips lifted themselves almost magically and he let out a short laugh.

He's actually kind of fun to talk to, weird how pleasant his company can be, he thought to himself.

He then thought about the fact that he would be meeting him this Saturday.

Weirdly enough, he was really looking forward to it. He didn't fear the hangout to be incredibly awkward, since Jungkook had quite an outgoing personality. Which made him pretty easy to talk to.

He felt his insides go all mushy as he anticipated the events that were yet to happen. And he smiled brightly.
He didn't know what made him feel like this.

But it was an all too familiar feeling.

•○●○●○•

"Hyung, we're meeting up on Saturday!," a raven-haired boy blurted out, clutching his phone tightly in his hands and rolling around on his bed.

"For real? Like a date? Wow. Congrats, man," another male voice said from the other end.

That voice belonged to none other than Kim Namjoon.

Originally, the two of them were planning to do a group call with Yoongi, just to talk about trivial thing such as school, home and just life in general.

But sadly, Yoongi's mother wanted to do some shopping with him, so he had to say goodbye midway. Jungkook would never forget the way Mrs. Min shouted "Yoongibear, please help me buy some groceries! I'll be down in five and then we can leave!" into his room.

It was quite amusing, leaving Namjoon and Jungkook cackling and a very flustered Yoongi cussing them out extremely harshly.

So here Jungkook was, gossiping with Namjoon.

About Taehyung, to be exact.

"Just a hangout as friends, sadly. But you know he owes me that kiss on the cheek, right? Ohh god, he's going to kiss me! Only on the cheek, but still! I'm freaking out already, oh my god!," he cried out, feeling his heart literally combusting in happiness and excitement.

"Man, that boy's really got you yearning for him, huh? Where is this meetup of yours anyway?," Namjoon asked, a wide grin evident just by the sound of his voice.

"At Burger King. I panicked and couldn't think of anything better, okay?," Jungkook whined as he heard his friend snicker at the other end.

"Oh wow, Burger King. How romantic," the older boy teased, making the ravenette scowl playfully.

"I mean, it's supposed to be a hangout under friends. And we are friends, for now. But Hyung, I feel like he's insecure of his body. And i really don't want him to be! He's so gorgeous and so is his body! Not that I pay much attention to that, of course, but--" his friend cut him off.

"Woah, woah. Slow down, I know exactly what you mean. We teenagers tend to be insecure about ourselves sometimes. It's normal, no matter what it's about. Just make sure Taehyung knows and feels that he shouldn't care about that and distract him from those insecurities. Make him relax and have fun. It'll strengthen your bond and it'll help him with his insecurities," Namjoon explained, sounding ever so smart. Oh, how much Jungkook admired him and his philosophy.

"Thanks, Namjoon-Hyung. I just really hope he'll have fun. He's just so precious. He deserves the whole world and even more, he needs to know that," he spoke dreamily, imagining Taehyung's beautiful features in his head. Which made him smile and scrunch his nose cutely in agitation.

"Oh yeah, I get it. You're in love, huh?," the older boy's voice rang from the phone which made him agree hazily. And suddenly, Jungkook remembered something.

"What do I wear? I'd ask Jin-Hyung for advice but when it comes to fashion, he's no use. The amounts of times he's offered me to wear his horrendous Hawaiian shirts-- Horrifying! And those baggy, way too long pants that he cuts himself, hell fucking no!," he rambled, making Namjoon chuckle once again.

"Keep it casual. No thick leather jacket, no terrifying all-black outfit. You guys are supposed to have fun, not look like Death Eaters. Try wearing something lighter for a change. Like a white shirt. Blue pants. Maybe brown shoes? Something like that," the older suggested, making the ravenette listen attentively and furrow his eyebrows in concentration.

And on and on they talked, until every single question of Jungkook's was answered.

And keep in mind, those were a lot of questions.
