■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■
The sun was bright but still belongs the gentleness of morning sun.
Jungkook wore his wristwatch and hung his bag on his right shoulders, ready to go for college.
But just then, his eyes fell on the bunny plushie near his pillow. An imaginary image of a particular boxy smile popped up in the back of his mind, recalling last night's incident. Without realizing, his lips formed a slight smile as he poke the cute nose of the bunny with his index finger before stepping out of his room.
He was quite late that day and skipped his breakfast as he rushed out of his house. Well... it's not his first time to skip breakfast and no one would get worried and insist him to have his breakfast before going anyway, so it was quite easy for him to skip his meals like this... plus... he never wanted to sit and eat with the people who would always give him annoying face even while giving him the food. To be honest, he actually loss his appetite after seeing them early in the morning. So it was always better to skip his meals than spoiling his mood for the whole day.
It must be only because of his father's so called strict rules to eat all together that he had to eat along with them. But his father had gone for a business trip for a week 2 days ago. So no one will say anything when he don't eat with them.
He just hopped inside the car, putting in his airpods and play some of his favorite songs as the driver started driving.
But he never expected to see a particular person with blonde hair by the footpath running real fast holding a guitar on his back as if he was running for his life.
"Want me to stop the car Sir?"
The driver asked when he saw Jungkook's gaze on the same person he saw the last day.
Jungkook snapped his head towards his driver who just smiled at him and turned the car as he already knew that eventhough Jungkook didn't say anything, his eyes tells it all that he wants him to.
"Hey!"
Jungkook slid down his glass window as the car stopped in front of the blonde who widen his eyes when he saw Jungkook.
"Get in."
"It's fine actually..."
"Aren't you late? You won't reach there even by 10 mins if you're going to run like that. Get in."
Jungkook said still with a straight face watching the other pouted, out of words, before getting in.
"Ok ok. Thank you. But my name is not Hey ok? It's Taehyung."
Taehyung said as he tried to keep his guitar beside his seat.
But he flinched when Jungkook leaned closer to him suddenly out of nowhere, his heart did some unusual flips inside his chest as their face were only an inch apart.
"Don't you know you should fasten your seat belt?"
Jungkook said as he fastened Taehyung's seat belt and leaned back to his seat leaving Taehyung with a slight pink blushed over his cheeks.
"T-thank you."
Taehyung said with a smile and looked away to the window, trying to hide his blush.
"We're here Sir."
The driver said as he pulled the break in front of the main gate of the college.
"Thank you Dongsuk-ssi."
Taehyung bowed at the driver who kept saying not to thank him again and again.
"Ah... um... Please take this and buy something for yourself...uh... Dongsuk-ssi."
Jungkook gave some money to his driver.
He actually wanted to thank the driver for helping him the last day eventhough his father wasn't home but he didn't know how to thank him. He even found it funny when his own father never even bothered to tell him that he'll be going for a trip and he only came to know about it last night, that too after his father already went two days before.
The driver was almost in tears. In his life of being Jungkook's driver, he never heard Jungkook calling him like that. Keep the calling thing afar, he never even really talked nor spoken to him properly, not that Jungkook didn't like him but he never talk to anyone even in the house. He didn't care about the money Jungkook was giving him, the younger was being a bit opened to him to the point he started calling him was enough for him to feel satisfied of his work.
"There's no need for that Sir. Please keep it and eat something instead. You skipped your breakfast today too right? Please take care."
With that the driver drove away leaving the two.
"Isn't it too late for the class?"
Taehyung asked checking his watch as they walked inside the campus.
"It's only 5 minutes late. We can still get in. Hurry up."
Jungkook grabbed Taehyung's wrist impulsively and dragged him with him.
"Jungkook... We're going in different ways from here."
Taehyung said as he pointed towards his department on the right, and that's when Jungkook came to his sense.
"Ah... Yeah... That's right... So..."
Jungkook said with a lower tone.
"Actually..."
Taehyung spoke as he noticed Jungkook still holding his wrist.
"I was about to skip my class anyway if I was late. You can go. I'm not gonna attend this cla-- Wait... Do you wanna bunk your class with me?"
Taehyung tried to hold his laugh seeing Jungkook's confused face.
"Woah... Don't tell me you've never bunked your classes in your life... Not even in your highschool?"
Taehyung just shook his head when he saw Jungkook's that was obvious that he had never done before.
"Chill. I was just kidding. A good top student like you shouldn't do like these stuffs. You should go to your class now."
Taehyung just laughed as he patted Jungkook's arms and was about to turn away but Jungkook tightened his grip around his wrist without saying anything to which Taehyung gave him a questioning look.
"I want to."
"You what?"
Taehyung asked when Jungkook said with eyes piercing into Taehyung's eyes.
"Let's bunk the class."
Jungkook said with determination.
"Are... you sure? I don't want to spoil you."
"It should be ok because it's you."
Taehyung felt his heart skipped a beat. But why? That line was not even romantic. Was it? But whatever, he just smiled and twisted his hand from Jungkook's grip around his wrist and held the other's hand and dragged him away with him.
As for Jungkook, he had no idea where he was going, where the other was leading him to... but everything Taehyung do felt so right to him. He just let the other drag him wherever he wanted... sometimes looking at their hands holding tightly into each other.
‐‐‐
"Why are we here?"
Jungkook asked as he looked around the small fast food restaurant that Taehyung brought him to.
"What will you eat?"
Taehyung smiled as he kept his guitar carefully on another chair beside him.
But Jungkook just kept staring at him, still don't get why Taehyung brought him there instead.
"You skipped your breakfast right? So eat something from here first."
"How do you know that I skipped my breakfast?"
"I heard it when Dongsuk-ssi told you."
Taehyung smiled when Jungkook nodded with a "oh" pouting his lips forming O-shape.
Jungkook was hesitant to order his food at first because he had never eaten outside like that. But he finally ordered something after Taehyung's insistence.
"What about you?"
Jungkook asked when he saw Taehyung was just sitting only with cup of coffee.
"I already had from home."
Taehyung shrugged.
"Then why did you bring me here?"
"To let you eat your breakfast of course."
"Then... You won't eat anything?"
"No. But I'm gonna accompany you while you eat. Eating with someone feels much better than eating alone."
Jungkook just stared at Taehyung who was smiling and gesturing him to start eating. He took a small bite of his hamburger, not sure about the taste of outside foods.
"How is it?"
Taehyung asked him waiting for Jungkook's response.
But Jungkook immediately took another bite and then another till there's nothing left in his plate to which Taehyung just chuckled knowing the other already like them.
For Jungkook, for the first time in his life, he enjoyed while eating with someone. He sure always eat with his family but all those were more like to irritate him more. Ofcourse that is the only time they would talk to each other but his father would keep taking about his business, his stepmother would keep babbling about how good his son is and his stepbrother kept giving him smirks when their father praised him.
But right now, he could see only one person with a smile on his face, kept speaking about how good the foods in that restaurant is and how it became his favorite place to eat, and no wonder what stories he was babbling about with so much excitement in his eyes. He just kept staring at the boy in front of him, wandering in those beautiful eyes, the way some strands of his long blonde silky hair kept meddling its way to his eyes. As if something induced him, he suddenly brought his hands up and parted the hair strands from Taehyung's eyes and tugged it behind his ears.
Taehyung just stared at him with his big doe eyes wide opened, shocked at Jungkook's sudden action, cheeks blushed into pink. But was it only Taehyung who was shocked? Even Jungkook himself was shocked at what he had just done and he just took back his hands as quickly as possible and sat silently.
Both of them didn't say a word... an awkward silence for a minute. The silence would've been for more minutes if not for the ringtone from Taehyung's pocket.
"YAH..!! WHERE ARE YOU..??"
Taehyung took his phone away from his ear when he heard Jimin shouting at the phone.
"Do you want me deaf..? You almost broke my eardrums."
Taehyung face palmed himself.
"It's good that it didn't break and I don't care about your eardrums. Now tell me where are you right now. Did something happened to you?"
Now Jimin sound worried.
"I'm alright and... I'm drinking coffee in that shop we always go."
"What? You're drinking coffee and I'm getting all tensed up here searching for you?"
Taehyung chuckled when he could already see his friend frowning.
"Sorry. I forgot to tell you."
"How can you go there alone without me?"
"I'm not alone."
"Not alone? Then who is with you? Hoseok hyung and Yoongi hyung is also here--- wait... Is it Jungkook?"
Taehyung almost dropped his phone when Jimin shouted Jungkook's name.
"How do you know that it's him?"
"So... I guessed it right? Oh my god Taehyungie..!! Did you just ditched your favorite class and friends just to go on a date with Jungkook?"
Jimin was squealing alone.
"What are you talking about? It's not like that. I just---"
"Ok. I understood. I'm not gonna disturb your sweet date. Bye bye. Muahh... Enjoy..!!"
Taehyung couldn't even say anything as Jimin already hung up the call.
"What happened?"
Jungkook asked when he saw Taehyung face palming himself after the call.
"Nothing. It was Jiminie. He thought... uh.. he's searching for me because I didn't tell him that I'm here."
Taehyung smiled as he put his phone back inside his pocket.
"You two seem pretty close."
Jungkook said, quite admiring Taehyung for having such good friends.
"Yeah. We've been friends since middle school. We decided to join the same college so he chose dance and I chose music. He dances really well and I always even doubt that he's still the cinnamon ball Jiminie that I know whenever he dances. He looks really cool."
Taehyung chuckled to himself when he recalled how he teased Jimin when he danced topless during their highschool life.
"You look cool too... I mean... while singing."
Jungkook suddenly regretted after he slipped the words from his lips.
"Really? Thanks."
Taehyung smiled shyly and took another sip of his already cooled coffee out of nervousness.
"Well... I wanted to ask you something. Why did you come to our music department when you never go anywhere other than your business department that day?"
Jungkook couldn't find any excuses to hide anything when Taehyung clearly saw him there that day... and... he somehow didn't want to hide anything from Taehyung too.
"I... actually... like music... like... so much."
Taehyung could see the fondness in Jungkook's eyes when he said he like music.
"I would love to listen to your singing one day then."
Taehyung smiled.
"I stopped singing now tho. But... thank you anyway."
Jungkook looked down on his empty plate when he recalled how his father broke his guitar before.
"But why? You can't stop what you truely liked just like that."
Taehyung said but Jungkook kept silent so he didn't want to asked more further.
"Do you want to go back to class now?"
Taehyung asked as he picked up his guitar after they paid the bills but blinked his eyes confusedly when Jungkook landed his hands out to him.
"Isn't it heavy? I'll hold it for you."
Jungkook pointed to the guitar on Taehyung's shoulder when he noticed Taehyung's questioning look.
"No no... It's fine. I can---"
Before he could finish his sentence, Jungkook already took it from him and started walking without saying anything... but not towards the direction of their college.
Taehyung just smiled and followed him.
The two were walking along the street with Taehyung following Jungkook from behind until Taehyung saw a group of busker by the side of the street with people crowding in front of him. He dragged Jungkook along with him in front of the buskers and clapped his hands along with the other audiences to encourage thrm.
"I want someone from the crowd to accompany me today since our lead vocal is not here yet. Anyone who can sing here?"
One of the buskers announced through their mic and traced his eyes through the crowd until his eyes landed on someone.
"The one with a black cap. Who is holding a guitar. I guess you know how to sing. Can you please come forward here to help us?"
All the people including Taehyung gazed on Jungkook who froze at the spot when the person pointed at him.
Everyone started cheering with loud applause.
But Jungkook was still in daze. He didn't say anything, didn't even moved. He didn't even remember when he last sang or even hummed. He used to sing in his room alone when he wanted to relief himself from all the depressions and stresses that affected his young mind. But after his father broke the guitar his mother's gifted him for his birthday, he felt as if he completely lost his freedom. He didn't understand why his father dislike singing so much despite of his mother being a famous singer while she was alive. He wanted to sing for his mother but his father not only broke his only gift from his mother but he also broke his only hope, he broke him. He broke him to the point that he even forgot how to hum a song.
"Go."
Jungkook came to his sense when he felt a warm hand on his hand.
Taehyung was whispering him, holding his hand tightly, eyes pierced on him with a smile.
"Go Jungkook. Sing a song for me. I want to hear you sing. Go."
Jungkook felt a sudden warmth in his heart. Taehyung's smile was enough for him to forget everything that was going on inside his head just a few seconds ago.
He took a deep breath and took his steps forward and stood in front of the mic stand.
He trailed his eyes through the crowd waiting for him to start singing. Some girls even squealing among themselves. But his eyes landed on a particular blonde standing in front of him with a wide smile.
He took out the guitar after Taehyung gestured him to use it and held it properly. His hands were shaking when he held the guitar after a long time. He took another deep breath and a last glance at Taehyung who kept mouthing him "Fighting" raising his cute fist up before closing his eyes and started singing.
"As much as you were lonely
I really hope you meet someone
Who will love you more than you do
I'm sorry that's not me
It's not easy to give
Don't say those words, please
You know those words hurt me even more
You said you would love me, so what is this
You don't know what kind of heart you gave me"
(A/N: Lyrics from Ending Scene)
He let out a deep sigh as he finished his song. But when he opened his eyes, he could see more crowd gathering in front of him and every single person were clapping for him. Then his eyes landed on Taehyung in between the crowd, smiling at him proudly with his hands busy clapping along with the crowd.
Without his realization, he was already walking through the crowd, eyes still on the blonde whose smile get wider when he quickened his pace towards him.
Taehyung was about to say something when he saw Jungkook walking towards him but before he could say anything, he was engulfed within two strong arms tightly.
He could feel Jungkook's heartbeat when he pulled him into a hug all of sudden. He smiled as he brought his hands up to hug the other back.
"You did well."
Jungkook could hear Taehyung's soft and soothing words as he felt soft and gentle pats on his back.
That was the only thing he needed in his life... someone to encourage him when he do what he likes, someone to appreciate him when he do something, someone to give him a warm hug and say he did well.
And he got it today... from the person who always appeared in front of him just like a light that could lighten up his dark world.
He felt the happiness that he lost long time ago.

Hope you like this chapter 🤭💜
Thank you so much for reading 💜
I'll try to update more often...
💜 I Purple You 💜
All the songs of MOTS:7 are so beautiful 😭😭💜
What are your fav track from MOTS:7?
Mine is... I can't choose... they are all so so so good... but I like We are bulletproof : Eternal and Friends the most... but still I wanna say I love all the songs.
Eventhough YouTube, being a snake as always, played dirty with us, our boys are still the best and the real winner for us. They gave us so much love and dedications. The only thing is that we wanted to return them by breaking records and showering them with awards for their hard work. But still... we did our best and we are still Army who love them and their works whatever it is and they love us no matter what and I think that's the most important and precious thing we have for each other right now.
So please don't get upset on whatever is going on. We can still do better in the future if we're still with them and show our love for them in every possible ways.
Be happy and have a great day
💜🍀
