"When you smile, I melt inside
I'm not worthy for a minute of your time
I really wish it was only me and you
I'm jealous of everybody in the room
Please don't look at me with those eyes
Please don't hint that you're capable of lies
I dread the thought of our very first kiss
A target that I'm probably gonna miss"

"Yoongi! Fucking help me instead of staring at Hoseok's Instagram profile!"

Yoongi blushed as he quickly stuffed his phone in his pocket. "I most definitely was not staring at Hoseok's instagram profile."

Jungkook snickered before grabbing a shirt, holding it up to his chest and turning around to face the older. "Yay or nay?"

Yoongi scrunched his nose, shaking his head. "You're just going to a movie and dinner at a diner. You don't need anything too fancy."

Jungkook frowned as he examined his collection of clothes. He came across a white button-up and a pair of black pants. "What about this?"

Yoongi walked closer to the other, circling around him while tapping a finger on his chin. "I like it." He reached into Jungkook's closet and tossed the younger a black beanie. "Wear this with it. Casual but still looks like you put effort in."

Jungkook nodded as he threw the outfit on, not even caring that Yoongi was in the room. They were best friends, after all. It wasn't the first time. The younger laced up his shoes and straightened the beanie on his head before turning, once again, toward Yoongi. "Still approve?"

Yoongi gave Jungkook a small smile. "You look good, Kook. Tae is lucky."

It was Jungkook's turn to blush as he took a shaky breath. He walked to his night stand and grabbed his inhaler, stuffing it into his pocket, just in case. He said a quick prayer that his heart and lungs could cooperate through this evening.

He heard a knock on his bedroom door, followed by Taehyung's voice. "Kookie? You ready?"

Yoongi met eyes with Jungkook, giving the younger a reassuring smile and a pat on the shoulder. Jungkook opened the door, feeling his heart skip a beat when he caught sight of his boyfriend. He wore a white shirt with black jeans, topped with a red and black checkered sweater wrapped around his waist, with a black jacket covering the white shirt. He had a baseball cap on his head. He looked casual and comfortable, but, God, he looked like a model.

Taehyung smiled, his beautiful box smile, as he looked Jungkook up and down. "You look great, Jungkookie."

Jungkook giggled as he nodded. "You look hella hot." He turned to Yoongi. "We'll be going now. I have pizza on the way for you, since you're staying here tonight."

Yoongi chuckled. "You have your inhaler?" Jungkook nodded. "Alright. Have fun, kiddos. Be home before eleven!"

The two youngers laughed as they exited the apartment.

Taehyung drove them to the movies, paying for the tickets and the snacks. Jungkook insisted many times, but had only been denied. The younger didn't even know what movie they were going to be watching, but he didn't care because either way, he was with Taehyung, on their first date as a couple.

They settled down in their seats as the previews started. The theater was mostly empty, considering it was a Wednesday night. Jungkook cleared his throat. "What movie are we watching?"

Taehyung smiled. "Iron Man."

Jungkook felt a rush of excitement through his veins. "Iron Man? But it's not in theaters, how are we-?"

Taehyung shushed the other, earning a surprised look. "I know a manager who works here, and he was able to work something out. I know you love Iron Man, so I figured I could rent out a theater and we can watch it. I've never seen it."

"YOU'VE NEVER SEEN IRON MAN?!" Jungkook spit out his drink.

Taehyung gave a nervous smile as he spoke quietly. "No... I wanted to see it with Jimin, but... he didn't want to."

"You're going to love it, oh my God. I'm so excited." Jungkook was bouncing in his chair out of excitement. "Holy crap this is already the best date ever."

Taehyung laughed before placing a gentle kiss on Jungkook's cheek. "I'm glad. I'd do anything for you, Bunny."

Jungkook pouted. "Bunny?"

"Yeah! You look like a bunny. An adorable bunny. You're my adorable little bunny."

Jungkook felt himself blush, and was glad that the lights were dimming for the movie to start so Taehyung couldn't see.

The couple watched the movie in quiet, occasionally feeding each other popcorn or stealing sips from the other's drink. They are walking on the sidewalk, hand-in-hand. The diner they decided to go to was just around the corner from the theater, so they chose to walk. Jungkook was desperate for some fresh air. He had been deprived while he was recovering.

"You doing okay?" Taehyung smiled down at the younger, his eyes twinkling.

Jungkook nodded. "I haven't felt this good in a long time."

Taehyung chuckled as he held open the door for Jungkook. They settled down at a table, placing their orders with the waitress. She returned with their food, smiling brightly at them. "Are you two a couple?"

Taehyung reached his hand across the table and gripped Jungkook's, running his thumb softly on the younger's smooth skin. "This is our first date as a couple actually."

"You are really cute together. My girlfriend isn't too keen on showing our relationship in public. People are so judgemental. I'm glad you two are more focused on how you feel for each other than what others care to say about you." She bowed slightly before walking away from the table.

Jungkook shook his head. "God I dislike how being any other sexuality than straight here earns so much hate from people. Love is love. We shouldn't have to worry about going on dates, or holding hands, or kissing."

Taehyung nodded, his lips forming a pout. "I know. I can't tell you how much I want to show you off to the world."

Jungkook's cheeks turned pink as he tossed a fry into his mouth. "Shut up and eat your food, Tae."

Taehyung chuckled before taking a large bite of his hamburger. He watched the younger eat, admiring how his chubby cheeks made him resemble a bunny. "Aww you're so cute."

Jungkook choked on his food, hitting himself in the chest as he laughed. Taehyung's eyes filled with worry as he jumped out of his chair, going to the other's side to try and help him. This just caused Jungkook to laugh even more, earning a confused look from the older.

"W-Why are you laughing?"

Jungkook slowed down his laughter, speaking with only the occasional chuckle. "I don't know but that was the best laugh I've had in a while."

Taehyung, who was kneeling next to Jungkook's chair, let his head fall to the other's chest as his breathing calmed down. "You fucking scared me, Kookie."

Jungkook patted him on the head. "Don't worry, Tae. I'm fine. I feel great today."

"I'm glad!" Taehyung pecked Jungkook's cheek as he went back to his seat, continuing to eat his burger.

"Oh!" Jungkook practically shouted, startling Taehyung.

Taehyung chuckled. "What?"

"I forgot that we were going to set your manager and Namjoon up. We need to do that!"

Taehyung's eyes lit up. "Shit! You're right. We should set it up. I can talk to Jin at work tomorrow and see what he thinks and when he is free, and you can talk with Namjoon."

"We should make their identities a surprise. Do one of those clichè blind date things?"

"Yeah!" Taehyung couldn't hold his smile in as they planned out the date. They had spent so much time talking that they hadn't realized how late it was getting. Taehyung checked his watch, feeling his eyes go wide. "Crap! It's already past midnight. I'm sorry, Jungkook. I have to open in the morning."

Jungkook laughed, wiping his mouth with a napkin as he stood up, having already paid for their food a while ago. "Well then, let's head home!"

They drove home, Jungkook singing along to some Big Bang that was playing on the radio. Taehyung felt his heart swell as he listened to his beautiful voice.

He parked the car, running to grab the door for Jungkook, who winked at Taehyung as he walked past. Taehyung walked him all the way to his bedroom door. Yoongi was passed out on the couch, a mostly-eaten box of pizza open on the coffee table. "I should probably clean up after him." Jungkook shook his head as he went to pick up after his best friend.

Taehyung reached a hand out, gripping his arm to stop him. "I can clean up. It's been a busy day, you should probably get some rest. Don't overwork yourself."

Jungkook hesitated, before realizing that Taehyung was right. "Okay, Tae. Thank you." He turned on his heel to walk to his bedroom, but stopped when Taehyung, once again, gripped his arm, trying to be quiet so he didn't wake up Yoongi.

"What is it, Tae?"

Taehyung smirked. "Do I not get a kiss, babe?"

Jungkook's cheeks heated up at the nickname. He giggled as his lips collided with Taehyung's. It wasn't a long kiss, just a peck, but it was enough for them.

"Good night, Jungkookie."

"Good night, Taehyungie."

Lol I had to have a cortisone shot in my shoulder, and need physical therapy. If that doesn't work, then I might have to have surgery.

Updates might me slower so I can focus on trying to heal my shoulder. I am a musician, and my shoulder pain has affected my playing significantly the past few weeks, so I need to recover.

I will still try to update from 1-3 times a week, but it may vary depending on how I am feeling. 💜
