Silence. A knife-cutting silence, dragging seconds to feel like minutes and paralyzing the two of them as they look at each other, blank. The sheet of paper filled with colors had been crumpled by Hoseok who left with his evidence on the table, now replaced by a white sheet of paper with a single scribble of emotions over it.

"I can explain-"

"Explain what?" Jungkook looked at the boy in front of him, "What? What is there to explain? Hobi's showed me everything, and now I know the real you. You're a fucking liar Kim Taehyung, a liar cosplaying something you will never be."

"You don't understand," Taehyung murmured, walking behind the boy who was looking down at several images of his darkroom desk. "He's only showing you parts of it-"

"And I don't need to see the rest," Jungkook concluded, heading for the door to be pulled back by Taehyung, faces now only inches from touching. "Get off me," He barked, Taehyung not listening and holding onto his shirt tighter.

"No, I'm not letting you go, not now, not ever," Taehyung murmured the last part, looking into Jungkook's nearly black eyes, a glint highlighting them. "You owe me something, and in return for that, I want you to hear me out."

Jungkook clenched his jaw, spitting out a short, "No" and ripping his hand off his shirt. "I heard you out when you fucking lied to me-"

"I'm not fucking lying!" Taehyung croaked, "I'm not, Jungkook, I'm not."

"So what?" He scoffed, "You think making an account and faking everything isn't lying? That's exactly what it is Taehyung."

"I didn't tell you anything that was me lying to you," Taehyung responded, seconds away from a tear welling in his eyes, "I told you my name was V, and yes I didn't show my face, but that's against the point!"

"Against the point?" Jungkook shook his head, "No, that is the point. You faked your identity just to talk to me, didn't you?" He narrowed his brows, his tone becoming darker, "Didn't you?"

"I'm not answering that," Taehyung uttered, not willing to give up on the boy in front of him. "I'm not answering anything of your questions until you let me show you everything. He hasn't shown you even half of it. All of these are just stupid polaroids and pictures of posts I've made. He's missing the other half."

He's missing the thousands of notes Taehyung wrote as captions for him.

Jungkook rolls his eyes, raised brows and a smug look on display. "What's so important about aΒ  another stupid half?"

"Just give me a chance and I'll show you," He looked at the brunette with all of his last hope, a tear falling down on his cheek but he wiped it away quickly, sniffling. "Please Jungkook, please."

...

Fortunate for Taehyung (and y'all) Jungkook gave him a chance to 'explain himself', that is done all within the forty-minute bracket that was left of lunch. Taehyung instead led Jungkook away from the lab and towards the darkroom, and when he arrived there, he made the brunette sit on a counter by his desk whilst he scurried through his cupboard.

And when he found what he was looking for, he started to grow back a little Cheshire cat grin, the edges of his mouth turning up. "Just look at any of these," He said, passing them to the boy, "But you have to read a few of them at least, and there's a ripped one in there, but read it last."

"Uh... okay." Jungkook took a few of them out, then reading them to himself as Taehyung went to go finish a project due in three days. "Day 19: He owes me-"

"Oh my god," Taehyung squeaked, embarrassed, "Don't read them out loud! I meant in your head."

"Oh," Jungkook replied, scanning through the note.

Day 19: He owes me something but I have a feeling I should only ask him for when I really need it.

Day 21: I feel bad for making him believe I'm someone I'm not, but then again, who likes Kim Taehyung?

Day 23: I understand why everyone loves him. He's perfect.

Day 24: This is bad, I shouldn't be falling for him.Β 

"I'm confused," He mumbled.Β 

"Just read that one," Taehyung pointed to the odd note that was opened by Hoseok earlier. "You can read it out loud, it might help."

The boy mumbled, taking the note between his thumb and index finger and reading it. He raises a brow as there is no date, but carries on nevertheless. "Two personalities, V and Taehyung. And yet with both of these two damn personalities, I'm falling for the same guy, Jungkook."

Taehyung slowly turns around, his cheeks tinted with a flush of rose, biting his lip nervously as he spoke in a sotto voice. "Y-You don't have to say anything, I'd understand-"

Jungkook immediately jumps off the counter he sat on, the space between his opposing desks so narrow that he was only inches from the boy. "You like me? Like that?" He queried, the smaller nodding twice. "I, uh, didn't expect you to say this."

"It's okay, I understand if you don't like me-"

Without a hesitant thought in mind, Jungkook's mouth was pressed to Taehyung's. The boy stopped breathing, not knowing what to do as this was his first, and quite possibly, his last. He shuddered, a mewl almost. But something was off, and Jungkook pulled back.Β 

He caught on. "This is your first kiss, isn't it?" Taehyung became flustered at the question, a small affirmative response coming from the back of his throat. "Why didn't you tell me?"

"Did it look like I could?" Taehyung shot him a look of overwhelm, still not processing what was happening. "You literally just put your lips against mine and shut me up."

"Am I seriously teaching you then?" Taehyung didn't respond, and instead fluttered his lashes against Jungkook's cheeks. "Just follow me," He instructed, then starting all over again, his lips pressed against Taehyung's, who shivered at the unknown feeling of warmth. He had every thought flashing through his mind, his nervousness making the boy more stiff in his position. "Relax," Jungkook muttered against his lips before he put Taehyung's arms on his shoulders and his own around Taehyung's hips, the boy melting into his hold in an instant.

Taehyung parted his lips with a hum, curling his toes as the brunette's lips closed in, the kiss slow and soft. His tense nerves were now gone, replaced by a feeling of wanting more of Jungkook. His lips felt so gentle so warm, and Taehyung felt his hands begin to slide up his chest and encircle his neck, as the kiss gradually became more ardent. Taehyung continued kissing himΒ as he felt himself being pushed against the counter, Jungkook's body pressing against his. The kiss goes on, their lips moving in perfect sync until they pull apart for a breather, looking into each other's eyes, dazed.

...

I SWEAR TO GOD IF YOU GUYS AREN'T HAPPY - I'M DONE.

i'm joking, it's just this chapter was really hard to write, especially the kiss.

so i've outlined around the ending to be at 60-65, and i may make another texting au. it may become a frequent thing seen as these are quicker to update and easier to write.

tell me what ships you like, i'm going to make a yoonmin maybe next, and then another taekook.
