- Drink something. You must be thirsty. - Saying this, V approached Jungkook and pulled out a glass filled with transparent liquid.

Not sure how much Jungkook recovered, he put the glass to his mouth, but all the time he held it in his hands so that the boy would not let it slip out of his hands. The brunet put his hands on his and dipped his lips in liquid. The boy's hands were pleasantly warm, the skin was smooth. This sudden contact caused V to feel strange pressure in his stomach. He held his breath and watched the boy intently. After a while, Jungkook emptied his entire glass and looked at him with a gentle smile.

- Thank you. - His voice was still hoarse, his throat burned.

At the very thought that the boy probably ripped his throat, screaming in pain, V tightened his jaw. If he could, he would kill this vampire again for what he did to him.

- Kookie, you don't have to thank me for anything. - V replied, placing the empty glass on the cabinet near the bed and sat down next to Jungkook.

Intense smell of V's perfume reached the brunet's nostrils and he involuntarily inhaled the vampire's scent deeply into his lungs and closed his eyes for a moment, enjoying the wonderful and familiar aroma. Now he didn't even care that V might notice what he had done. It didn't matter to him. Surrounding himself with this fragrance, he felt safe.

V looked at the brunet's face. The boy looked much better. His blood helped him regain his strength. Dark circles were still visible beneath his eyes, but V was convinced that just frew more hours of sleep would be enough and his face would regain its former glow. The bite marks on his neck were barely visible. What worried him more was the fact that he could not erase those terrible memories that imprinted permanently on his memory. He couldn't erase the pain that the vampire had inflicted on him, and the additional awareness that it was all his fault made him want to fall to Jungkook's knees and beg forgiveness a million times. He knew that even this millionth time would not be enough. The brunet, as if he noticed a sense of guilt that was painted on his face and instinctively put his hand on his palm.

- V... - He whispered and the vampire looked up and looked him in the eye.

- Kookie, I'm sorry. If I wasn't such an idiot and didn't make out with this girl... Nothing like that would happen... I regret it so badly... I don't even know how to apologize to you... It's all my fault...

- V, that's not true... I also acted thoughtlessly... I saw that you did not see me leaving... And yet I went out with him. I was angry with you and... And it seemed to me that I would prove to you that I did not need you at all...  - He fell silent for a moment and grabbed V's hand, entwining their fingers together. His dark eyes met this beautiful blue gaze, in which surprise was painted with his tender gesture. Jungkook smiled gently. - I knew you wouldn't let him hurt me... - He whispered. - Being there, I was afraid of only one thing... - He started suddenly, serious. V tensed. He didn't know what to expect. Guilt overwhelmed him. - I was afraid that this vampire would kill me and I wouldn't have the opportunity to apologize for what I said erlier that night... - V opened his mouth to say something, but Jungkook stopped him. - I don't think about you like that at all... I was just mad at you and... And... - Jealous, he added in his mind. He didn't have the courage to admit it out loud. - That's why I said all these awful things... But I don't think so...

- Kookie. - V said softly. - You don't have to apologize for anything. We both know that all you said was true. I am a monster. And maybe I'm handsome and sometimes I can be cute, but I'm still a vampire. And vampires have no conscience, they are driven by lusts and urges. There is nothing good about us. You were right to say that I am good just for one thing... And for this because of my stupidity, I exposed you. But that will change. I promise that from now on I will train you and try to do my best. You don't have to be afraid that I will deceive you. I will try to be the best coach and friend... Just as you wanted it from the beginning. - V paused.

He felt his throat tighten as he spoke all these words. It's not like he didn't want to be better. He wanted it. He wanted to be a better trainer for Jungkook, he wanted to be a better person for him, but he knew that he didn't really want to be just his trainer. The vision of losing Jungkook caused that all the feelings and emotions he had kept hidden so far, he felt with double power and it was more and more difficult to not let them show. He cared about him. He was damn sure of it, but he also knew that it would be better for Jungkook if he stayed away from him. He wasn't good to him. He didn't deserve him. The best he can do for him is to keep his distance. He let his feelings cloud his judgment and he almost lost him. He couldn't let it happen again.

- T-trainer? - Jungkook repeated.

He wanted to add something, but his head was blank. He didn't know how to react. That's what he wanted. That V would train him and be his friend. Isn't it? So why it felt so strange. He could exist without him. Nothing was between them. V was not important to him, right? Nothing more than a coach, a friend... So why suddenly hit him this strange consciousness, so sudden that it almost knocked him off his feet. Some shocking, sudden awareness of incompleteness, emptiness. As if at that moment he was losing something important.

Perhaps something most important.

He felt as if he had been waiting for someone for a long time, and when he finally opened the door, it turned out that there was nobody behind them. As if he suddenly lost something extremely valuable that he would no longer be able to recover.

- Y-yy yes, yes. Great. I can't wait to get back to training...  - He finally replied, looking at V's face and could swear that for a split second he saw pain on his beautiful face. However, the vampire smiled wanly.

- Good. - He said briefly.

He wasn't sure of his own voice. He didn't know why he felt so disappointed in Jungkook's reaction. What did he expect? That Jungkook would tell him that he would like something more? He would never love someone like him. He didn't even deserve the crumbs of his love. He felt that if he didn't leave now, he would suffocate. He couldn't breathe. He felt exactly like when he saw Jungkook kissing this girl in the workshop. He stood up abruptly and started toward the stairs.

- You have to rest a lot now. Get some sleep. You can stay here as long as you like. There's food in the fridge, so if you are hungry then... Everything is there. I asked Jimin to watch over you. I didn't want you to be alone, and I thought... That maybe you won't feel like watching me after what happened... - He paused and smiled wanly again. Jungkook wanted to get out of bed and stop V from leaving, but he didn't move.

- And you? Where will you be? - He asked shyly. V hesitated for a moment.

- I've already talked to Jackson... I will spend the night with him... - He finally replied.

- Aah ok. Yes, Jackson... Yes... - Jungkook stammered and looked away in confusion.

He felt like an idiot that he thought again that maybe V would like to stay with him. The confused vampire cleared his throat and headed for the stairs again. Before he started down, he paused without turning around. He hoped Jungkook would ask him to stay, but no words came out of the boy's mouth.

- See you later, Jungkookie. - So he threw it and quickly ran down the stairs.

He ran out of the apartment and from the warehouse. It wasn't until he was outside that he leaned back against the door and closed his eyes, trying to calm his breath.

He knew he was doing well distancing himself from Jungkook, so why did it hurt so much?

***

V poured another glass of whiskey and sank back into the leather armchair. He dipped his mouth in the golden liquid and took another sip, wishing his brain would finally stop processing the events of the last days.

V, you idiot. You wanted it yourself. Stop self-pitying. You have to get a hold of yourself. You are so pathetic.

- You can't stop thinking about him? - A familiar voice suddenly asked, breaking him out of his thoughts. V looked up at the sound.

- Why does this sound like a statement, not a question, Jackson? - He answered the question with a question and looked at the platinum blonde, who was still lying on the bed, wrapped only in a thin blanket. The boy's hair was messy, but he still looked phenomenal. His athletic, tanned torso moved evenly. The boy laughed softly, then sat on the bed.

- Because I already know you a little, V... Besides, probably only a blind man would not notice that you think about him all the time...

- D-Does it ever go away? - He asked suddenly after a moment of silence, looking blond straight in the eyes.

- It depends about what you ask... Hangover? In your case, it will be over in an hour... What you feel for Jungkook? I think it may never pass... I don't understand just one thing... Why are you doing this to yourself? - He asked. V gave him a questioning look.

- What do you mean?

- V, I'm not stupid. I know you care about him, so why are you here with me and not with him? Don't get me wrong... Sex with you is damn amazing, but you might as well fuck him now, not me... - V sighed loudly and again looked at the blonde, who carefully followed his every move.

- It's not that simple, Jackson. With Jungkook... I don't know... - He fell silent for a moment, not knowing what to say. How could he explain all that was in his head. - And what are you doing here, Jackson? - He asked suddenly and the boy laughed softly. V knew well that Jackson was here for the same reason as he. Although he had never asked him that before. For all these years, he was perfectly able to recognize a broken heart when he saw it. Sometimes it was enough to just look into one's eyes to know. That's why he liked to be with him. They both had the same holes in their hearts. He didn't have to explain to him or pretend to be happy. They just understood each other.

- Apparently we are more similar to each other than we think... We're both here to forget someone, V. Only that my guy didn't want to deal with me anymore and disappeared without a trace, and Jungkook, maybe he can't sleep now because he thinks of you. Why are you giving up on this?

- Recently Jungkook has been kidnapped... - He finally replied after a moment of silence. - He was tortured for three days by another vampire, he was almost raped and killed... And it was all my fault... I endangered him. The best I can do for him is stay away...

- From what you told me, Jungkook knows a lot about vampires and he is a real piece of work... The way you met... Even if you stayed away from him, something would draw him to this world... I know how it works myself. I've had the opportunity to meet different vampires, but I've never seen any of them care about someone as much as you care about him... All the more about human. So why are you pushing him away from you so much? - He inquired inquisitively.

- To protect him. - He replied briefly. His words sounded almost like a snarl. Jackson got out of bed and approached him. He was still naked, but he didn't care.

- To protect him or yourself? - With that, he measured the vampire threateningly with his inquisitive gaze. V reflexively clenched his jaw.

- I don't know what you're talking about, Jackson. - He replied dryly.

His blue eyes were hard and menacing, but Jackson was not about to back down. He didn't know why he did it. The vampire's heart affairs should be no interest to him, but he couldn't help himself. He had long lost his hope for a happy ending, but seeing V and Jungkook he hoped that maybe he could help at least them.

- I think you really want to protect yourself. - He said suddenly. - You're a coward, V... Of course you want to protect Jungkook. It's an unconditional reflex when you really care about someone, but I think that you protect yourself first and foremost. I know something terrible happened to you, someone hurt you badly, but that doesn't mean that he will do the same. I always thought that to love someone, you have to show the greatest courage, because when you admit that you love someone... You become defenseless. And I think that's what scares you... It's easier to push him away than let him love you...

V licked his lips nervously. Was he really that easy to figure out? He was so used to being strong and almost immortal that he was afraid to allow himself a moment of weakness. Because when he loved, he was weak. But wasn't it too late for him? The thought of losing Jungkook forever made him realize how he felt about him. And he could deny it to everyone in a million different ways, but he knew it would change nothing...

- I think you should talk to him honestly... - Jackson added after a moment.

- He deserves someone better... - V finally said. He looked a bit confused. Jackson knew his words were accurate. He had never seen V with such a face before.

- He should decide that. Why don't you let him choose? - He replied, stroking the vampire's cheek with his hand. Suddenly V cleared his throat and looked away. He felt ashamed that he showed weakness once again. What was happening to him? Self-pity, confides in an almost strange guy. Since when did he become so pathetic?

- Let's finish this pathetic psychological analysis. That's not why I'm here. - He said hard, turning back to Jackson. The boy took his hand from his cheek and rolled his eyes.

- I wanted to do something useful. I wanted to help you. - He grunted disappointed. V smiled gently and stroked his cheek.

- You are helping me, my love. - With that, he approached Jackson and started kissing his neck, which still showed bite marks. A quiet moan came out of the blonde's mouth.

- V, how is it supposed to help you that I suck you off? - He asked, fighting the urge to submit to the will of the vampire. The blond man pulled his lips from his neck and stood in front of him.

- I don't know, but I'd love to find out. - He replied with a smile on his lips and gently pushed the boy to kneel in front of him.

Jackson obediently did what the vampire asked for. He couldn't resist him. He knelt in front of him and, sliding his trousers off his narrow hips, looked him straight in the eye. V stared at him. Jackson felt a surge of excitement and, without waiting, slipped the  vimpire's semi hard member into his mouth. V let out a soft sigh at the sudden feeling of warmth on his sensitive member. He closed his eyes and let the thoughts rattling in his head slowly dissolve into nothingness. Feeling his body finally giving in to these caresses, he entwined his long fingers in Jackson's blond hair and began to move his hips more strongly, coming out to meet his agile, wet tongue so efficiently dancing around his masculinity. He didn't even know when his thoughts were again mastered by a young dark-haired man with doe dark eyes...

- Oh yes, Jungkook. - He groaned when another wave of excitement came. As soon as the boy's name came out of his lips, he looked down. Jackson broke off caressing and slid his dick out of his mouth.

- Oh yeah, V... - He started with a devilish smile. - Jungkook will take good care of you. - He threw and, without waiting, wrapped his lips again around his penis and pushed it as deeply as he could, while moving his tongue with agility.

Shit.

***

V turned off the engine and pulled the helmet off his head. The wind blew his blonde bangs, which gently fell on his blue eyes. He dismounted and headed for the warehouse without hesitation. He quickly ran up the stairs and opened the door to his apartment without knocking.

- Hi handsome! - He suddenly said a sweet voice as soon as V crossed the threshold.

An involuntary smile crept over his lips. The sight of a smiling blonde from ear to ear always caused a kind of warmth in his dead heart. His nostrils attacked the smell of freshly ground coffee and he saw that the blond holds a red mug with hot black liquid in his hand. And although the vampires didn't need as much sleep as humans did, V felt that if he didn't drink coffee he would fall on his face. Since Jungkook was kidnapped, he had hardly slept at all. To be honest, he's been out of his mind for the last days. He literally dug through the sky and earth to find him, but he would do so again without hesitation. He walked over to the blonde who was standing in the kitchen and kissed him gently on the cheek, simultaneously flicking his bangs with his hand.

- Hi, Jimin - His smile was warm. He always enjoyed seeing his friend. Because of everything they had gone through together, the vampire was like a brother to him. That is why he entrusted him with taking care of Jungkook when he was not at home. He knew that he left him in good hands. - I am begging you, make me a coffee... - He added pleadingly, and Jimin just laughed softly and without a word started to prepare black liquid for his friend.

- Jungkook is still asleep. - He said suddenly, seeing his friend straining to hear some sounds coming from his bedroom. V smiled wanly. He was really worried about the brunet. More than he would like to admit.

- H-how did he do yesterday after I left? - He asked, sitting down on a kitchen stool.

- He slept most of the time, ate a little, but he didn't have much of an appetite... I almost had to force his food down his throat. At night... he woke up screaming... I think he was dreaming about him...

- If I only could kill that bastard again... - V growled through his teeth, his fists clenched. - You think he raped him? - He asked uncertainly, lowering his voice.

- I don't know, but injuries don't seem to indicate that. It seems that he just fed on him many times... - Jimin replied, sliding a cup of coffee towards V and put his hand on his friend's neck, comforting him. - Why didn't you want to stay with him yesterday? - He asked suddenly, after a moment of silence.

He sat down opposite his friend and looked closely at his face. He was clearly tired. He knew that V had been awake for several days, he probably did not eat much himself, as evidenced by the soft dark circles under his eyes. Still, he was beautiful as always. Jimin was cured of love for V when he met Yoongi, but he could not deny that V was phenomenal. His sharp eyes glowed with an intense blue glow, the tanned, honey skin seemed as smooth as the most expensive velvet, his lips, now slightly parted, looked as if they had come out from the chisel of the greatest artist.

- I thought after what had happened he would not want to see me... - He replied quietly. His eyes were absent, as if he were analyzing something strongly.

- V... You saved him. - Jimin said, clearly surprised by the words of his friend. V looked him straight in the eye.

- He was kidnapped because of me. - He replied coldly. His voice sounded extremely sharp, even accusing.

- V, it wasn't your fault. Jungkook knows this too and doesn't think so. This...

- He may not think so, but that's the truth. - He added, interrupting him. - The best I can do for him is to stay as far away from him as possible.

- V, Jungkook was a hunter before he met you. If you hadn't appeared in his life, he would have continued hunting vampires. Perhaps he would find the same vampire or another, even worse. But if he didn't meet you, maybe he would be dead now. I saw you almost lose your mind during these three days, trying to move heaven and earth to find him. And you did it. Thanks to you, Jungkook is alive and sleeps safely in your bed. You saved him... And you may have to do it a million more times, but you don't endanger him, you protect him... And we both know why you do it...

- Jimin, I can't... - He paused.

He couldn't speak the words out loud. Perhaps he was afraid that if he said that, his feelings would become more real. He buried his face in his hands. Jimin approached him and, grabbing his wrist, pulled his hands away, forcing him to look at him. His gaze was gentle, he knew how much V was broken. Constant struggle with himself, killed him.

- I think it has already happened... - He whispered - I can see how you look at him when he is next to you. How jealous you are when someone else looks at him or touches him. What were you like when you looked for him so desperately and thought that maybe you lost him forever... During all those years when I was in love with you, I prayed every night that you would look at me like that at least once... I was waiting for it for so many years and I never got it. And Jungkook... He didn't even have to try. When I saw Yoongi for the first time, I thought it was destiny that connected us. I know Jungkook didn't show up at that club by accident... And I think you know it too... And I think you know perfectly well how you feel about him... You are only afraid to admit it...

- Jimin, you know it never ends well... Maybe my fairy tale doesn't end in a happy end...

- V, Jungkook is not Yura...

At these words, V's body tensed involuntarily. Jimin knew that V didn't like to talk about her, but he wanted to help him. He owed him so much and could no longer watch his friend suffer. He had struggled with the demons of the past for so many years. Could Jungkook cure him?

- Go to him. I think he'll be happy to see you. - Saying this, he got up from his seat and grabbed his jacket from the couch in the living room. - I'm going because Yoongi will cry for me. - He said, coming to the door. - Think about our conversation, V. You also deserve to be happy. Although you don't think you do...

Without waiting for an answer, Jimin disappeared behind the door. V took a deep breath. He knew that what Jimin was saying was true. No matter how much he tried to get these feelings go away, they were still burning inside him, trying to get out. He was getting lost in it all. He wanted Jungkook very much. More than he wanted to admit it. He couldn't deny it anymore, but he didn't know what to do. The only right solution that came to his mind was to keep the boy at bay. In addition, he did not know if Jungkook returned his feelings.

As he thought about him, he wanted to see him again. He took a few sips of hot coffee, then got up and started slowly up the stairs. He tried to be as quiet as possible so as not to wake him up by accident. When he came upstairs, he approached the bed and set the cup on the bedside table. He looked at the brunet. The boy was sleeping peacefully, cuddled in his bedding. V sat on the edge of the bed and looked at him closely. There were no more marks of wounds on his face. His milky neck skin was now smooth and flawless. The blood he gave him cured all physical damage. V only regretted that his blood could not cure his memories. V involuntarily clenched his jaw harder at the thought of this sick, soulless vampire. He couldn't forgive himself for letting him hurt the person he cared so much about.

Jungkook shifted slightly and his bangs dropped harder over his eyes. V instinctively reached out his hand and brushed the hair from his face, but did not withdraw his hand. Jungkook was so beautiful. His face was flawless, except for one small scar on his cheek. V didn't even realize when the tips of his fingers gently glided along the scar, then his lips gently brushed it. The smell of the boy's skin was even overpowering, he wanted to feel this smell on his skin, mixed with his smell. He looked at the brunet's lips and instinctively licked his, remembering their last kiss. He knew that no matter how many other lips he would kiss, none of them would taste as wonderful as those of Jungkook. He approached the boy and stroked his cheek gently. They were only centimeters apart. V could feel the warm air coming out of his mouth.

- What are you doing with me, Kookie? - He whispered, looking at the boy's face. - Why can't I stop thinking about you? - Saying this, hesitating a bit, he reduced the distance between their lips and placed a gentle kiss on the boy's lips. When their lips met, a familiar shiver went down V's back, which he felt only kissing the brunet. He no longer had the slightest doubt about how he felt about him.

He loved him with the purest and strongest love and could not change it anymore. Never.

***

Jungkook opened his eyes and blinked a few times. His heart was still beating faster because of the dream he had just had. He thought he heard V whisper to him in his low, sexy voice, and then kiss his lips with the softest of kisses. At this memory, he instinctively licked his lips. How surprised he was when he felt the taste of bitter black coffee on his lips. He hasn't had coffee for at least a few days. Confused, he rose to a sitting position and looked around the room. He was alone. He licked his lips again, but still tasted the taste of coffee under his tongue. He touched his lips, surprised by the sudden taste.

- Oh, you woke up... I hope it's not because of me... - A male low voice suddenly said.

That wonderful voice that Jungkook wanted to hear so badly. His heart sped up involuntarily. He turned his head and saw V in the bathroom door. Seeing him, he reflexively held his breath. The vampire was wearing only black sweatpants, which, dropped low on his hips, showed this insane V line. There were still individual drops of water on his chest, a white towel hung around his neck. His hair was all wet, beaten in total disarray. He was so damn handsome. The vampire approached him and went to the bed. He grabbed a mug from the nightstand and took a few sips of cold coffee from it. Jungkook looked at the cup, feeling his pulse speed up again. Was this kiss just a dream? V caught his eye and set the cup down uncertainly.

- Do you want some coffee? - He asked, then laughed briefly. - Sorry, what a ridiculous question. Of course you do... You must be starving... Wait! - Saying this, he quickly ran out of the room.

Jungkook still confused, fell back on the bed. Is it possible that the vampire really kissed him? Jungkook felt disappointed that V did not stay with him last nigh. Every time he thought the vampire had spent the night with Jackson, he felt a strange tightness in his stomach. Is it possible that he was jealous of him? The previous evening, V had made it clear that they were friends. Just friends. Maybe it was better this way? But why did Jungkook feel so damn disappointed that V kept his distance?

- Ha! Breakfast was served! - V suddenly called, ripping him out of his thoughts.

Jungkook sat down on the bed again. This time, V appeared in his eyes carrying a tray in both hands. There was a wide, boxy smile on the vampire's lips. Jungkook felt a familiar grip in his chest. He felt it every time a vampire did such a thing to him. V gladly set the tray on the bed next to him.

- I don't have many things in the fridge now, but I made you toast, scrambled eggs and freshly brewed coffee. - He explained, sitting on the bed next to the boy.

- Thank you. - Jungkook finally said, returning his smile.

Looking at the glittering blue eyes of the vampire, he knew he could drown in them. He wanted to tell the vampire everything he had in his mind when he was imprisoned and thought he might never see him again. He wanted to tell him that he cared more than he had shown it before. How much he wanted to kiss him now...

- V, I... - He opened his mouth to say something else, but fell silent when suddenly V moved a towel, and he saw a fresh hickey on his neck and scratches on his back. Apparently, traces of a passionately spent night with Jackson. V probably wasn't aware of it or just didn't care if he saw it. He told him that he would spend the night with blond. Jungkook felt his throat tighten. He could feel the taste of disappointment in his mouth. V looked at him expectantly.

- Something happened? - He asked worriedly. Jungkook swallowed a lump that involuntarily began to form in his throat.

- No... I'm just glad you're here and we're friends again...

His voice sounded less confident than he wanted. And the word "friend" left a bitter taste in his mouth. V smiled gently with an unreadable expression and squeezed his hand.

- I'm happy, too... my friend... - He finally choked through his tightened throat.

***

- Jungkook faster! I know you can. Try a bit harder! - A low velvet voice shouted, sending pleasant chills along Jungkook's sweaty back.

The brunet brushed hair from his face, combing it back with his long fingers. He bent his legs harder and moved forward. Almost a week has passed since his abduction, he has returned to full form and daily training. He was getting better and faster. He could move much faster than the average person, and his body became stronger and more flexible. He could do things he didn't even dream of a few weeks ago. He flexed his muscles and moved as fast as he could towards his opponent. He kicked him with all his strength in his legs, and when he lost his balance, he pulled him down and sat on his hips straddling him.

- Hahah point for you! - Saying that, V laughed out loud.

The boy looked at the vampire who was lying under him. They both breathed heavily. Jungkook felt sweat running down his back, wetting his white T-shirt and making the delicate fabric stick tightly to his hot body. V moved slightly under him, but he only grabbed his wrists firmly and immobilized them above the vampire's head. When he did it, the black shirt slid up to reveal his athletic, tanned belly. Jungkook's eyes moved involuntarily on the vampire's honey skin, and after a confused moment he let go of his hands, but still held him with his thighs. Their position was quite intimate, but apparently none of them bothered. Their relationship has returned to normal, if you can say that. Since the abduction, V has kept his distance all the time, but he has had ambiguous remarks that still made Jungkook feel flustered, like a teenager in love. Still, he loved it. They still had their scuffles, gentle flirting.

- I know that probably no vampire would complain about you ending the flight like that, but I do not know if you should rather cut their throats instead of riding them... - That said, V winked at him. Jungkook rolled his eyes.

- You know that I have reserved straddling especially for you, V... - He replied and smiled defiantly.

- That's right, V! He doesn't end fights with me like that! - Suddenly a voice shouted behind Jungkook. The boy didn't even have to turn around to recognize Yoongi's voice.

- Because Jungkook knows that only I can do it. - Jimin said and laughed heartily.

Jungkook rose from V and turned toward his friends. They were still smiling. Jimin was wearing a large, oversized sweater that reached almost halfway to his thighs and black tight pants with holes in his knees. Yoongi, as usual, wore a classic black, with which his skin seemed white, like milk. V got up quickly and approached his friends. Welcoming them one by one. His T-shirt was also wet with sweat, Jungkook saw thin material stick to his back, making every muscle visible. How damn sexy he was. Jungkook wanted to look away but couldn't. He wanted to slip his hands under the thin fabric and examine his athletic, moist body with his fingertips. Feeling the characteristic heat wave down his stomach, he looked away in confusion. We are friends. He remembered in his thoughts and reached for the water, trying not to look at the blond to calm his desires.

- What's up guys? I did not expect you here today... - V suddenly threw, looking at friends.

- Namjoon got a tip that new corpses were found on the city border. That's probably a vampire again. He wants us to meet him there. - Yoongi explained.

Jungkook looked at V's face and for a second he thought the blond turned a bit paler. Without saying anything, he nodded and walked over to Jungkook. He took the water bottle from his hand and took a few sips. Seeing his mouth wet from the water, brunet bit his lower lip. He wanted to run his tongue over his lips.

- Give us half an hour. We'll take a quick shower and we'll be ready to go...  - He said giving back the bottle to the brunet. Their hands gently brushed each other. V headed for the apartment, and Jungkook quickly followed him.

- You can always take a shower together, it will be much faster! - Yoongi shouted after them.

- V has two showers in the apartment! - Jungkook yelled back at him, laughing at his friend's words. V looked at him and their eyes met.

- Damn, I should have thought better when I was designing this apartment... - He threw so that Jungkook heard his words and winked at him, then let him in the door, and brunet hit him gently on the chest.

- Now you probably regret... - He whispered in his ear.

- Like hell... - V replied, a genuine smile appeared on his face.

***

================================

Ayashee:

Friends.

How long do you think V and Jungkook persevere in their resolution? Will they manage to keep their distance and be only friends? Especially now, when V confessed to himself his feelings towards Jungkook, and JK knows what happened that day in his workshop and why V and Jackson are hanging out. When both know what the thought tastes like, that they can lose each other and never have the chance to reveal real feelings... Does V is right thinking that if he stays away from Jungkook, will it protect him from danger? Will Jungkook finally dare take a step forward and come to the end of the edge?
Vkook drifted apart, but for how long?

It's probably about time to reheat the atmosphere again, isn't it?

Another chapter soon ...

Let me know what you think!
