When they reached Jungkook's house, they couldn't hear any voice from inside. Jungkook tried the door and it opened in first attempt. He gulped, hoping with all his heart to see his parents home and pushed open the door as he walked in.

The lights were off and it was dead silent all around. Jungkook sat Taehyung on the couch and went back to look for his parents.

When he opened the door to their room, relief washed over him as he leaned by the door and sat down. They were sleeping and were completely fine. That is, until his wild imagination kicked in and gave him the idea that they might be sleeping an endless sleep. Jungkook pushed himself up and rushed over to their side to check their pulses. Once he was satisfied that they were only sleeping, he quietly came out and joined Taehyung on the couch with a long sigh.

"They are ok."

"Thank God!"

Jungkook yawned and laid down putting his head on Taehyung's thigh as he closed his eyes. He was exhausted, not much physically but more mentally. Soon, they fell silent and Taehyung thought Jungkook was already asleep.

(A/N: This is just awesome...👆)

"You can stay here, tonight." But he wasn't. Taehyung nodded but then face palmed since Jungkook was facing down and couldn't see him.

"Okay." And it was only moments later, that Jungkook's breathing became soft and Taehyung realized he had fallen asleep. He wasn't surprised considering the amount of load the younger always put on his own mind in every situation. He stayed put for a while wondering where Jimin and Hoseok could be. A few minutes later, Taehyung heard the engine of Mr. Jeon's van and he just froze. Who could have brought it back here?

His question was answered soon when Jimin's voice reached his ears.

"They are probably in Jungkook's room. Let's just leave the keys here and go." Taehyung didn't say anything as he waited for the two of them to show up. If they had the keys then that meant that they were the ones who put him and Jungkook in that graveyard.

As soon as Hoseok appeared in the living room, he froze in his spot upon seeing Taehyung sitting on the couch and Jungkook lying next to him. Taehyung raised an eye brow at him and Hoseok smiled awkwardly.

When Jimin saw Hoseok just standing there like he had seen a ghost, he went up to tap his shoulder but froze as well.

Taehyung didn't say anything since Jungkook had fallen asleep only a few moments ago. He, instead, just looked straight in the eyes of the two boys standing in front of him and slid his thumb across his throat.

Jimin soon recovered from the shock of seeing his victims and rolled his eyes at Taehyung's threat before flipping him off. He put the keys back at their place and was about to leave when Taehyung called him in a harsh whisper.

"You bastards! Come back here and help me with Jungkook."

Jimin turned around to see what did Taehyung need his help with but didn't find anything.

"What help?" Hoseok asked when he couldn't understand either.

"Take him to his room, idiot." Taehyung ordered as he ran his fingers through Jungkook's hair.

"Why won't you do it yourself? And who told you to let him sleep here?" Jimin was purposely edging him as usual and Taehyung was getting ticked off by his annoying responses.

"Because I can't. My leg is hurt." Taehyung gritted out as he glared at Jimin who looked completely unfazed by him. After a small staring contest, Jimin shrugged and moved forward to help him.

"Fine."

Taehyung followed after him limping on his leg slightly as Hoseok opened the door for them and Jimin laid Jungkook on his bed.

"You guys are the dumbest, I swear." Jimin remarked as he was leaving but Taehyung didn't miss to punch him before he did.

"We'll see you about that later." Jimin only poked his tongue at him and left, grinning widely.

Once he was gone, Taehyung joined Jungkook and was ready to drift to a peaceful sleep. Only, he couldn't sleep.

/I haven't asked him out yet./

Taehyung's eyes traced the features of Jungkook's face as he remembered how Jungkook struggled with words at the store and ultimately called Taehyung his friend. A small smile graced his lips as he snuggled closer to him and closed his eyes.

/I'll do it tomorrow./

And soon he was also asleep.

-------

The next morning, Jungkook woke up to a familiar feeling and when he opened his eyes, he saw Taehyung lying next to him.

/I should get used to it./

Jungkook didn't want to get up after seeing him and so he just turned towards him before closing his eyes again. It wouldn't hurt to oversleep, for once.

BANGBANGBANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!

The sweet moment was ruined by the blaring device called Jungkook's phone as he frowned before getting up and shutting the stupid thing off.

It was Jimin calling him and for the first time he felt annoyed by his call.

"What?"

"I interrupted your disgusting private thing, didn't I?" Jimin was much too cheerful as he mocked and Jungkook pulled his phone in front of his face to glare at it as if Jimin could see it.

"No! I-We were sleeping! Why are you so perverted, Chim?" Jimin only laughed at the insult and tusked at him.

"I'm not perverted. I just have a sexy imagination." Jungkook shook his head at the level of content Jimin had.

"Of course, you do. So, why did you call so early? Actually, how did you wake up so early?" Jungkook moved out and towards the bathroom. He was up already and his sleep was ruined too, so better get fresh.

"First of all, it's not early when the clock says twelve and because I wanted to disturb you two." Jungkook sighed at the cheekiness in Jimin's tone as he hung up without responding and went in.
