21. Hidden Angel
To Taehyung's agony, the lunch period came way later than he had anticipated. Hence, when he ended his Intro to Infectious Disease, he flew out of his seat, in search for his favourite raven head.
"Wow there little tiger, slow down!"
Jungkook was leaning against the corner of Level 1 Medical Building when he saw Taehyung zooming out of the lecturer hall.
"Oh, Kookie! Didn't expect you there."
Taehyung turned back to find the raven head meekly grinning at him.
"Of coz you won't. You were ready to fly out. Missing me already?" Jungkook giggled at the sight of the flustered brown head in front of him.
"Yea...Actually, I was hungry, so I was looking forward to lunch."
"Sure! Come on, I already bought us some food since I got to leave class earlier, we can find Jimin and his friend now."
The raven head wiggled the paper bag which he was holding in his hand, earning a good two thumbs up from Taehyung.
.
"Um, let me text Jimin."
Taehyung and Jungkook were the first two to arrive at the back building. When Tae noticed Jimin was not there, he decided to call his friend.
"Maybe he is still in class?"
"No Kook, he does not have any class from 10 to 2, he should be here."
Jungkook nodded and settled down on the grass while watching Taehyung dialling his soul friend. Without Tae's knowledge, Jungkook was sending messages to Yoongi asking him to delay Jimin longer on his way.
"Um...is he answering?"
"Nope, it's ringing but he is not picking up."
"Then do you wanna have your lunch first? You have class in an hour isn't it?"
"How do you know my schedule so well?" Taehyung was surprised.
"You told me just now." Jungkook lied through his convincing smile.
"I did?"
Jungkook nodded at the confused brown head as the other was recalling back the information he shared with the raven head.
"Never mind, don't worry about that. So..."
Jungkook moved his body a little closer once he saw Taehyung settling down on the ground beside him.
"So???" Taehyung placed his bags aside and sat on the ground, body facing the muscle boy in front of him.
"I was wondering if you want to go on a date with me?" Jungkook asked, so casually.
At that very moment, Taehyung.exe stopped functioning.
...
"Tae? Are you listening?"
"Y-yes?"
"I asked if you want to go on a date with me?" Jungkook titled his head to the side, giving his best doe eyes expression to the brown head, trying to get his approval.
The raven head knows that Taehyung will not be able to refuse him much longer as he is using one of his greatest technique, the ability to charm, to work on the brown head.
"Um...are you officially asking me out?" Taehyung fidgeted. The poor boy was experiencing all sort of hiked up emotion in himself that he is unable to stay cool nor calm.
"If I can be completely honest without you bashing me, then yes. I am officially asking you out. I want to make you mine."
Taehyung was oblivious on the hard intonation Jungkook put on the word mine at the end of the sentence. The pure soul was feeling the giddiness rushing in his vein, up to the branches of his brain.
"Y-yes."
"You sure Tae? You sound so unsure." Jungkook chuckled lightly, teasing the boy in front of him.
"Yes! I'm just a little nervous. I have not been on a date."
"Seriously? How did anyone miss the chance to pamper such a beautiful soul like you?" Jungkook was too drawn to the lust he felt for Taehyung that the demon started to extend his hand and caress Tae's soft pink cheek.
"You're very warm Kooks."
"I am?"
"Yes, it's like your touch sends tingles and sparks." Taehyung was smiling but due to his own embarrassment, he dare not to lift his head and gaze on Jungkook.
"Huh?" Jungkook squinted his eyes and used his demonic vision to see what was Tae blabbering about his touch that sparked.
An inaudible gasp left Jungkook's mouth when he saw his touch was sparking in gold, reflecting a slight shimmer on Taehyung's cheek.
How? What is this new confusion between them whenever they touch?
"Oh...I think I was just equally as nervous as you about the date." Jungkook said, retrieving his fingers back.
"Yea, don't worry, I think it's normal to be nervous when you ask someone out, right?" Taehyung finally mustered the guts to face his crush.
Jungkook nodded and offered Tae a gentle smile.
"So, when do you wanna go for a date?" Jungkook cheerfully diverted their conversation away.
"I have no idea? Um, maybe after my birthday gathering?"
Jungkook stopped for a second to think.
Birthday gathering? Is it before or after he is officially 21? No, it will be too late. My plans won't work.
"Jungkook? Hey?" Tae waved his hands in front of Jungkook, trying to get the attention back.
"Oh sorry Tae, I was just um...trying to recall about your birthday. I don't remember you mentioning it..."
"Don't worry about it Kook, I have not mentioned anything, so it's ok if you can't recall." Taehyung thought the raven head was embarrassed for not remembering his birthday, where in fact, Tae did not share anything about it with Jungkook.
"Yea...so? party huh?"
"OH yes! I mean, it's just the Park family and mine. We always have it that way. This year you can join too! You and I became very close anyways." Tae said.
"Thanks for the invite Tae, I will definitely be there. But, can I bring you out before your birthday? I mean...I wanna spend a special day with you."
"Sure Kooks."
Jungkook replied and sealed the deal with a tiny kiss on Tae's cheek, making the brown head to cup his own face, trying to cool the heat down.
The raven head threw his head back in a fit of laughter, cooing at the adorable reactions he had been getting from the brown head.
"TAE TAE! JUNGKOOOKIE!!!"
And...of coz, a certain blond hair had to make his way to the scene with a pale icy blond attached to his side.
.
"Jiminie! You're late!!!!!"
"Sorry Taehyungie, I was a little occupied." Jimin smiled sheepishly.
Jungkook knew very well on what was Jimin occupied with. It didn't take him long to inspect the short blond.
Jimin looked dishevelled, still panting, swollen lips, 2 large hickeys between his ears and collarbone, shirt tucked in messily. So it can only mean one thing, Yoongi happened.
On the other hand, the icy blond stood at the back of Jimin, cool and composed. Not even a single strand of hair out of place. Maybe the only indication would be his equally pink and swollen lips.
"Never mind, we didn't start our lunch yet, we were...just talking." Taehyung said and motioned Jimin to sit down.
"Oh, great!" Jimin sat beside Taehyung while dragging Yoongi to his side.
"Now! I want you to meet Yoongi. He is in music major! Yoongi, this is Taehyung, my best soul friend, and this is Jungkook, our new friend."
Jimin did the intro happily, feeling accomplished for gathering all his friends around.
"Hi, Yoongi! Nice to meet you! Jimin won't shut up about you." Taehyung mocked as he extended his hand to Yoongi.
The icy blond head took his hand gently, and shake it. Immediately being able to read what's been going on Tae's mind and what just happened before he and Jimin reach the spot.
Yoongi smirked and make sure Jungkook saw it, indicating he knows that Jungkook made a move on Tae and even planted a sneaky little kiss.
"Hey, Taehyung, nice to meet you and I'm glad it's me that Jiminie is talking about."
"Yoongi..." Jimin gently tugged onto Yoongi's sleeve.
Yoongi ruffled Jimin's hair and acted all loving towards him. The raven head who was looking at his demon guard very intriguingly tried to hide his laugh. Never had he seen Yoongi behave so gently and lovingly, it's a muse to him.
"Oh, meet Jungkook too! He is a Psych major, he shares an elective with me and Jimin."
Taehyung made sure his man did not go unnoticed.
"Hey Jungkook, nice to meet ya."
Yoongi exchanged his handshake with Jungkook, keeping it pretty simple and pretend to not know of his demon prince.
"Same here Yoongi."
"So......let's eat?"
Jimin was the first to open the lunch bags and eventually, they dived into the food.
.
It was almost nearing the time where Taehyung has to flee to his next class, the day was drawing into nice and breezy weather.
Jimin was laying on his back, occasionally flirting and stealing glances with Yoongi, seated beside him.
Jungkook on the other hand, laid back, supporting his elbow on the grass, watching Taehyung trying to catch the butterflies flying around.
"Tae, you have like 20 mins before your next class, leave the butterflies alone."
Jungkook chuckled.
"But...they are beautiful. I need a picture."
The brown head was struggling to find a decent chance to click a photo.
"Want my help?" Yoongi tried.
"Sure, come here Yoongi, help me to catch one. We can say sorry and let it go later." Taehyung smiled.
Yoongi stood from his seat and approached the brown head in front of him. He was enjoying his time spent with the Pure Soul. After all, it's not often you get to be around the same space as the Pure Soul of heaven and don't get burned to ash.
"Hey, come here!" Yoongi was jumping in the air, trying to catch the purple butterfly for Tae. This resulted in Jimin's cute giggle, adoring Yoongi.
The demon prince, on the other hand, narrowed his eyes, watching his demon guard moving closely around Taehyung.
"Yoongi. Maybe you shouldn't -..."
Jungkook was about to warn Yoongi to stay away from Tae as he can't bear another demon sharing the space so closely with Taehyung when he notices Yoongi managed to catch the purple butterfly.
How dare his servant guard tries to enjoy the company with his property, his Pure Soul. The Prince of Demon does not share, certainly not Taehyung.
"Here you go."
Yoongi gently placed the creature on the palm of Tae's hand. Somehow, in the palm of the Pure Soul, the butterfly seated calmly, almost like submitting to the angelic soul.
"Woah....it's so beautiful."
Taehyung gasped at the pretty creature in front of him. Spotted in white and bright orange, creating a wave-like pattern on its wings, as the butterfly shutters its wings gently.
Jungkook was burning. He hates how Yoongi manages to make Taehyung so happy just simply by catching a butterfly. Bullshit.
The raven head was so focused on his anger that he did not notice his demonic aura was radiating off himself.
Yoongi sensed it and immediately looked at Jungkook who was sitting there, furrowed, burning with a dark aura around him.
The demon guard can sense his prince's jealousy and anger. Yoongi knows it will do no good to the creatures nearby and humans if a demon goes into wrath.
Yoongi tried to discretely make his way to Jungkook and warn him when he heard Taehyung started to cry.
"Y-yoongi....it...its not moving anymore!"
