Today was Jungkook's day off. Taehyung asked him out to meet at The Brew also known as Jungkook's workplace for those who are still confused. Out of boredom, the younger complied. Meeting at The Brew became a comfort place for the both of them.

Great coffee, good company.

They may not get along just yet but things are going to be different today. At least that's what the younger told himself.

Barista: Hey, if it isn't Jungkook. What can I get you both?

Jungkook: A green Tae lat-Tae

Taehyung clearly heard that. His lips breaking into a smile. The fellow barista smirked hearing Jungkook's order, clearly those two have shared mini secrets amongst themselves.

Taehyung: I'll have my usual

Taehyung has come here so often, even the other baristas has memorized his order. Jungkook looked at the older from the corner of his eye. Today was odd.

He was awfully... Quiet.

As they sat down at their usual corner, the blank expression from Taehyung has never left his face. For once, it was Mr Hard to Get to strike the conversation.

Jungkook: Erm everything alright?

Taehyung: ...

Jungkook: Errkay

Taehyung: ...

Jungkook: So you're not gonna be cheesy today?

Taehyung: ...

Jungkook: Silence it is then

Taehyung: ...

Jungkook: We stare out the window all day if that's what you want

Taehyung: ...

Jungkook: I'm not used to this

Taehyung: ...

Jungkook: This is you being abnormal

Taehyung: ...

Jungkook: Fine stay quiet then

Taehyung: I'm sad

Jungkook: ... Wae?

Taehyung: I've a disease

Jungkook: ... And that is?

Taehyung: Heart disease

Jungkook: Sorry to hear that

Taehyung: But there is a cure

Jungkook: Let's hear it

Taehyung: The medication is here with me

Jungkook: Then what are you waiting for? Take it!

The younger one was starting to get worried even though it wasn't evident on his face.

Taehyung: I couldn't

Jungkook: You need help? I can help.

Taehyung: Yes. Only if the medication allows me to take him

Jungkook: Him? You mean...?

Taehyung: You know what I mean

Jungkook: I've been punked, haven't I?

All the older lad did was smile.

Jungkook: Why you... Kim Taehyung!

Taehyung: HAHAHAHAHAHA. *uncontrollably wriggles feet* you should have seen your face!

Jungkook: SHUT UPPP

Taehyung: *starts mimicking* you need help? I can help. Hahahaha why so serious!

Jungkook: Cause I believed you had it!

Taehyung: And if I really do?

Jungkook: This is nothing to joke about

Taehyung: You were worried, weren't you?

Jungkook: ...

Taehyung: If I really had heart disease which may lead to death, you'll be sad won't you?

Jungkook: ...

Taehyung: And you wouldn't want us to end in bad terms, would you?

Jungkook: ...

Taehyung: Cause deep down, you can't bear to permanently see me leave for good

Jungkook: .. K-keep quiet. J-just shh

Taehyung: Its sad isn't it? Illnesses, death.. Those two are the only ones who will make you truly realize how much you love someone.

Jungkook: ...

Taehyung: Your silence proves how right I am

Jungkook: ...

Taehyung: Since you ain't talking and this convo is getting pointless, I shall take my leave

The said boy with a pallid expression left The Brew and was already a couple steps outside.

Jungkook: Hey wait! You forgot something..

The older lad turned around and his cheeks was greeted with something marshmallow soft, leaving the boy wide eyed.

Jungkook: You forgot your medicine

Taehyung: Looks like I'm fully cured

This time round, it wasn't only the young lad who was smiling and blushing. Both of them were. It couldn't feel more perfect. Bravo, Mr Persistent. He fell for your trick and looks like Mr Hard to Get is falling for you too.
