Jongun chuckles as he watches Jungkook lag a bit as he's sitting his shit glass down on the coffee table.

"I'm not kidding." The younger says looking at Jongun. "It's...It's like I'm hot but...on the inside."

"Are you seriously drunk already? You had like four shots." The older laughs as he refills his own shot glass.

"I'm not kidding... I'm like...humming from the inside." Jungkook says pressing his hands against his face. "Like a vibrator."

Jongun is shocked when Jungkook irrupts into a fit of giggles. "What?"

"A-A vibrator? Do you...you know what a vibrator is." The younger laughs, leaning forward to pour himself another shot.

"Wait. Maybe you should slow down, baby." The older says catching his hands before he grabs the bottle.

"I'm not...a baby." Jungkook scoffs, snatching his hands away. "I think I like this. Let's...a few more and...let's just do a few more."

"If you insist." Jongun says handing Jungkook the shot he poured before pouring himself one.

Jungkook drinks down the shot a lot easier than he first few.

"Woah, man." He says looking around the room. "If you switch...and someone sees me like this. We're dead."

"I don't usually switch when I'm drinking. Everyone's really deep in the inner world right now." Jongun says, he's had just as many shots as Jungkook but he doesn't seem affected in the slightest.

"Hm..." Jungkook says holding his glass out for more. "The last time I got...like...really wasted, was when I turned 22."

    "Mhm." Jongun hums as he fills the glass, only halfway.

    "When I turned 21...I couldn't afford to get wasted." The younger laughs, a little too hard, before downing his shot. "I was still in my third year and...my parents...my dad...he died."

Jongun's brows draw together. "Oh...I'm so sorry, Jungkook."

    "He was at a bar...my mom always hated when he went to bars but...he always went and this particular, right, it...it was, like, freezing outside...I mean, there was snow on the ground." Jungkook says holding back a laugh as he continues. "He was so wasted that...he passed out in the ally and froze to death. Isn't that crazy."

    "I think you've had enough, Jungkook." Jongun says taking the younger's shot glass from him with a disturbed expression.

He knew Jungkook was more hurt about the situation than he let on.

    "We were broke when he was alive." He continues, his face becoming sad. "And we were...even more broke when he died. But...then my mom met her new husband, not even a year later...he put her in this huge house and paid the rest of my college bills. He won't get me a new laptop but..it's because of him...that I can go to medical school next year."

    "That's good." Jongun says. "Are you happy?"

Jungkook giggles softly. "No, but...since you and everyone and...I'm happier. Because...you guys...you give me a purpose or something. Y'know?"

Jongun nods. "I understand."

    "Oh, I know!" Jungkook says jumping up suddenly. "Let's play a drinking game."

    "You're already drunk, Jungkook." The older chuckles softly.

    "Borinnnng..." The younger sings, standing up from the couch. "Holy shit, I'm spinning."

    "Sit down." Jongun laughs, pulling him back down.

Jungkook laughs as he falls back down on the couch, looking at Jongun with unfocused eyes.

    "What?" The brunette asks after Jungkook stares at him for a while.

    "You're just so pretty..." He answers.

Jongun chuckles. "You do know that me and the body don't share the same face, right?"

Jungkook doesn't crack a smile as he leans in and kisses Jongun, his lips moving against his drunkenly.

Jongun surprisingly breaks the kiss first. "Stop, Jungkook."

    "What?" The younger asks, still attempting to kiss the older.

    "I said stop. You're drunk. You don't mean any of this." The older says. "You should lie down."

    "No, I do...I mean it." Jungkook says, his words slurring as he takes the brunette's face in his hands. "I want to kiss you, Jongun...I want you to kiss me too and...and to do whatever you want with me."

    "You're wasted." Jongun chuckles. "How about this, I'll get you ready for bed and we can cuddle. All night."

Jungkook gives him an unsatisfied look, narrowing his eyes. "...Cuddle? Are you saying...I got this drunk to cuddle?"

    "I might kiss you too. But nothing else." The older says. "I can't, not while you're drunk."

    "Being drunk sucks then." Jungkook whines, wrapping his arms around Jongun's neck like he was hugging him. "We should've done something else."

Jongun chuckles, scooping Jungkook up from the couch.

The younger squeaks as his feet leave the ground. "Wow, you're, like...carrying me."

Jongun chuckles again as Jungkook starts to ramble about being able to carry him too.

"Don't move. Stay." Jongun says after sitting him on his bed.

"I'm not moving." The younger sings drunkenly. "'Cause if one day when you wake up and find you're missing me~"

Jongun can't help but laugh at him as he goes to find some comfortable clothes for him to wear.

"I think I should drop out...out of college and become a professional singer, Hyung." Jungkook giggles, rolling over on his stomach and continuing to sing.

"Alright, alright." Jongun says handing him a pair of sweatpants and a t-shirt. "Wear this."

"I don't wanna, I like my clothes." The younger says shaking his head.

"You can't sleep in jeans." The older says. "Just change into them, it'll only take a second."

"Fine." Jungkook huffs, swaying a bit as he stands up.

Jongun helps him stand steadily. "You got it?"

"Mhm." He hums, his eyes becoming heavy as he pulls his shirt off. "Jongun?"

"What?" The older asks, watching him to make sure he didn't fall.

"Why...why did you have sex...y'know...with me the night we met?" The younger asks as he struggles to pull the shirt on. "When you could've just...let me take you home."

"I don't know. I liked you I guess." Jongun shrugs.

"You guess?" Jungkook asks.

"I know I liked you." The older says. "If you weren't a good guy you wouldn't have been worried about Minseok getting home safe. I figured I'd try going after a good guy for a change."

Jungkook chuckles, he doesn't really know why. "Have you always gone after bad guys?"

"They weren't necessarily bad, just not good." Jongun shrugs. "They weren't like you."

"Hm." Jungkook nods as he stumbles out of his jeans.

"Careful." The older says steadying him.

Jungkook looks up at Jongun, blinking slowly. "I've...I've never had a boyfriend."

"That's okay." Jongun says helping Jungkook pull on the sweatpants he gave him.

"I had sex with...a girl before. I wanted to throw up...the entire time." The younger laughs. "It wasn't her though...no...she was actually really pretty and...nice to me."

"Okay." The older nods, sitting Jungkook back on the bed.

"Jealous?" Jungkook asks teasingly.

Jongun laughs. "Of what? The girl that made you want to throw up?"

Jungkook laughs too. "What...what if it was a guy? Would you be...jealous, Jongun?"

"Not a chance." The older says pushing Jungkook back on the bed until he laying down. "You need to sleep."

"What? You said...you said you'd cuddle me." Jungkook pouts. "I'm not even tired."

Jongun turns away from him, pulling his own shirt off and walking to the closet to change.

When he returns Jungkook is half asleep already.

"Are you asleep yet?" He asks, crawling into the bed beside him.

"Waiting for you..." The younger hums, moving into Jongun's side.

Jongun smiles, wrapping his arms around him. "You like me way more that you let off."

"I don't want to...I don't want to ruin anything because...because you're a good person. And V's gonna kill me...y'know?" Jungkook hums out incoherently.

Jongun shushes him, stroking his hair soothingly. "Relax."

Jungkook mumbles a few more things before his voice trails off and he falls silent, his breath evenly hitting Jongun's neck as they cuddle.

The older sighs as he continues to hold Jungkook, something he thought he'd never get another chance to do.

He knew that he shouldn't get attached, he knew that being apart of a system would make loving someone hard and nearly impossible.

But for the first time in his existence Jongun felt differently, he felt like it was possible to love Jungkook despite being apart of a system.

And he felt something that he usually needed drugs and alcohol to feel, he felt pure joy and happiness.

He was feeling euphoric.
