Chapter 9 : Hangover

Third Person's Point of View.

"What the heck happened yesterday? My head hurts so much when I woke up." Jimin asks while he and Taehyung are eating breakfast. "And did you sleep here?"

Taehyung chuckles, holding his spoon, ready to put it in his mouth, "There's so many happenings yesterday, I couldn't even summarize all of them. And yes, I slept here because you asked me to stay."

Jimin nods, "Okay. You don't really have to tell me everything that happened yesterday, just the ones that you remember."

"I remember everything clearly." Taehyung said then puts a spoonful of kimchi rice in his mouth.

"Okay then, only the ones that you want to tell me." Jimin said, putting a spoonful of kimchi rice in his mouth as well.

"Gladly! But let's finish our breakfast first." the younger giggles, chewing on his food.

Jimin chuckles. "Hey, I just realized how much good of a cook I am. This kimchi rice is so great!" he compliments himself. But he's right though, he's good at cooking.

"Of course, you're so good at cooking!" Taehyung compliments him too, "This kimchi rice is the best kimchi rice I've ever tasted." he smiles widely, showing his rectangular smile.

"Really, huh?" Jimin laughs before putting kimchi rice in his mouth again.

"Really!" Taehyung says then sips on his glass of water.

After they eat, they help each other clean up the table. And then after that, Taehyung washes the dishes, because he volunteers, while Jimin goes to the bathroom to take a bath.

Not after more than an hour when Taehyung finishes washing the dishes. He goes to the living room and sits on the sofa. He sighs and stares at his phone which is placed on the center table.

He grabs it and unlocks it to see that there is a message from his mom.

Eommeoni ♡:

hi, son! how are you? how's jimin's birthday yesterday?

You:

hi, mom! i'm fine. jimin's birthday had gone fine :))

oh, and i met seokjin hyung and his husband yesterday after idk how many years.

Eommeoni ♡:

really? what happened? aww, i missed your brother

You:

stepbrother. nothing happened, we just had a little fight.

Eommeoni ♡:

you haven't forgiven him yet? c'mon son, it's been 10 years! even if you don't forgive him, nothing will change. his dad will not gonna rise from his grave.

He chuckles at that. It's been 10 years since their father—Seokjin's father died due to heart attack. If that incident didn't happen, their father would still be alive.

He sighs before typing out a reply.

You:

I'm not ready to forgive him.

"Hey, Tae."

He got startled when Jimin called him. When he looks at him, he saw that he's half naked, with a towel draping around his waist. He looks away and gulps, "Y-yes?"

"Have you seen my phone?" Jimin asks, scratching his head. "I just got out of the bathroom and I forgot where I left it."

"W-well, did you check the b-bathroom?" he asks back, still not looking at Jimin. Did he just stutter? Whatever. He never thought he would be ready to see his abs. Has Jimin been working out?

"Oh!" Jimin exclaims and runs over to the bathroom.

Taehyung sighs and lets out his breath he's been holding for a few seconds.

When Jimin enters the bathroom, he saw his phone on the top of the tank lid. What is it doing there?

He grabs it and observes it, unlocking and locking it to see if it still works. "Thank goodness." Yup, still works.

He exits the bathroom and goes to the living room. Taehyung follows him by his gaze until he sits next to him. Next to him.

"Shit, Jimin!" Taehyung almost yelled and Jimin creases his forehead.

"What?" he casually asks.

"Can you put on some clothes?" Taehyung gulps again and holds the urge to bites his lower lip.

"Oh, sorry." Jimin laughs before standing up from his seat and walks over to his bedroom.

"Oh, sorry." Taehyung mocks him and sighs once again. If it's another person who witnessed his abs, it would be a disappointment, he thought. He's lucky it was him, he mentally laughs at himself.

Jimin enters his bedroom and closes the door behind. He grabs an over-sized shirt from his wardrobe and quickly puts it on himself. After that, he takes away the towel from his waist, revealing his sweat short, and plops it on his bed. He lightly slaps himself for even putting the towel on his waist if he's already wearing a short. He then sits on his bed and sighs heavily.

He frowns and stares at nothing. He tries to remember what happened yesterday before he was completely drunk.

A scenario suddenly plays in his mind. He saw Taehyung crying as he holds his hand, trying to calm him down. He also saw Seokjin crying in front of Taehyung. Seokjin was asking for a forgiveness but Taehyung shook his head. He wonders what Seokjin did that made Taehyung so mad at him.

He also remembered how he was shocked to know that Seokjin is Taehyung's stepbrother. The world is so small that it managed to make the two meet again.

He finally exits his bedroom and walks over to the living room where Taehyung is in. He sits next to him again on the sofa and taps his shoulder. "Taehyung, I have question."

Taehyung looks at him, "What is it?"

"What happened?" Taehyung furrows his eyebrows at that. "I mean, what happened to you and Seokjin hyung? What did he do to make you mad?"

Taehyung froze. Oh shoot, he remembered. He had a mini debate with himself, whether or not should he tell the older about what happened 10 years ago, before speaking. "Can we talk about it next time?" He's not ready to talk about it. He doesn't wanna be emotional today.

"Oh." Jimin nods and smiles, "Sure then, if that's what you want."

"Do you still want me to tell you what happened yesterday? Only the ones that I wanna tell, of course." Taehyung chuckles, changing subject.

Jimin chuckles, "Okay."

×××

"

I did what?" He asks shockingly.

"Yeah, you drank two whole bottles of soju." Taehyung confirms, "You were just drinking from the glass at first, but then you started to drink from the bottle when you saw that everyone is drunk already. And not just that, while you were cleaning the floor, you managed to consume the remaining bottle of soju. And then you got completely drunk." then he laughs exaggerately.

Jimin slaps his forehead lightly. He's not surprised he did that but still, he's surprised.

"Namjoon hyung even said that you can take 8 to 10 bottles of soju. Same with other alcohol. What a heavy drinker!" Taehyung adds after he laughs.

That's right. He can really take 8 to 10 bottles of alcohol, or even until 12 bottles, before he's completely drink. That's how of a drinker he is, meaning he doesn't get drunk easily.

"Wow! That's embarrassing." Jimin finally said then laughs at himself. "My immunity to alcohol is quite strong."

"But Jimin, alcohol is bad for your health, and especially to your heart." Taehyung reminds him and he nods.

"I know that, I'm not dumb." He said it as if it's not obvious. "Why didn't you drink any yesterday?"

"I don't drink. As I've said, it's bad for the heart. It's bad for my heart." Taehyung holds his chest where his heart is located shortly.

Jimin leans in closer to him and tilts his head to the side. "Really?"

Taehyung stares at his face, observing every part of it. His heart then starts to beat faster. "J-Jimin."

"Is this bad for your heart?" He didn't reply. Jimin's face is so close to his that if he moves, their lips will be pressed against each other. Of course, this is bad for his heart, and good at the same time.

"Jimin, what are you doing?" he panickingly said. He felt the urge to kiss him but he must resist and hold himself.

"What's good for your heart?" Jimin asks innocently, still in that position. Taehyung doesn't know what's gotten into him and if he doesn't stop, he might faint.

"H-healthy food, like vegetables and meat." he replies to which Jimin laughs at. By that, he creases his forehead.

"What a good answer." Jimin winks at him. He finally pulls away and Taehyung felt a bit disappointed. Yet he sighs because he can finally breath properly.

"Jimin," the said boy looks at him again. "did you know who's good for my heart?"

Despite being confused, Jimin smiles and asks, "Who?"

"You."

Jimin knew it. He knew it from the start. "That's good. So that means, whenever you see me, you're happy?" He doesn't know what's gotten into him but he's glad to know he's good for Taehyung's heart.

Taehyung blushes and Jimin thought it's cute. It's cute when Taehyung blushes. "Y-yes."

"Great!" Jimin smiles widely, hiding his blush. "I'm happy too whenever I see you." And Taehyung's happy to know that.
