Taehyung managed to convince his producers to cut the schedule short after Joowon's behavior on the show. Both Namjoon and Yoongi agreed, thinking it'd be best to give both Taehyung and Jungkook time to cool off.

But little did they know the exact opposite would happen.

The two boys were back in the apartment, laying on Taehyung's bed as the elder hovered above Jungkook.

"Say it again," he commanded, his lips dancing over the younger's cheek.

Jungkook flung his arms around Taehyung's neck. "I love you."

A kiss was pressed against Jungkook's other cheek. "Again," the elder whispered.

"I'm in love with you, Tae."

Taehyung moved his mouth to cover Jungkook's. He kissed him softly, trapping the younger's bottom lip between his own. A soft sigh sounded from Jungkook's throat, causing Taehyung to kiss him harder. He slipped his tongue into the other boy's mouth and moaned when it touched the younger's.

Jungkook burried his fingers into Taehyung's blue hair, pulling the fine strands as their kiss deepened. Instinctively, his hips bucked upwards against Taehyung's.

"I want to make love to you," Taehyung said tenderly, pulling back to gaze into Jungkook's eyes. "But I don't want to rush you into anything you're not ready for."

It took a lot of restraint, but Taehyung refrained from touching the younger. He didn't want his touches to persuade Jungkook one way or another.

"Tae," Jungkook murmured, his hands moving to cup Taehyung's face, "I want that, too."

"Really?" The elder asked for confirmation, his breath slightly hitching as Jungkook's thumb pulled down his lower lip.

"No, actually, I've changed my mind."

"Kook!"

A breathy laugh escaped the younger's mouth. "I want you so badly, Tae. I, um, I just . . . I've never done this, obviously, and I don't know . . ."

Taehyung rolled himself off of Jungkook and faced him, both on their sides now. "You're rambling. Are you nervous?"

"No," Jungkook shook his head strongly. "But I don't know how this works. Am I the . . . or are you . . .?"

It was Taehyung's turn to laugh. "Are you asking which one of us is going to top, baby?"

"Maybe?"

The elder ran a hand through Jungkook's hair. "In all of my past experiences, I've topped. But, with you, I'd take anything you'd be willing to give me."

Jungkook swallowed audibly. "You'd . . . take . . .?"

"I'd be vers for you, Kook. I'll switch. Honestly, it's never appealed to me before, but it's different with you. I just want to be with you, for us to be one."

"Fuck, how'd I get so lucky?" The younger questioned as he placed a hand on Taehyung's hip. "You'd be willing to do that for me?"

"Of course, I love you."

Jungkook pulled the elder to him and connected their mouths in a soft kiss. "I love you, Tae. And I want our first time together to be perfect, so I think it's best if I follow your lead."

"It's your call, Kook. I can teach you what to do if you'd rather -"

Jungkook stopped him with his lips. "Tae, I trust you. I know you'll take care of me."

Taehyung kissed him back, pulling the younger's bottom lip between his own. He bit down gently as his hand trailed from Jungkook's face to his chest.

"I'm going to make you feel so good, baby," he said, moving his mouth to leave kisses on the boy's neck. He stopped right below his ear and started sucking, hoping to create a mark that'd last for days.

Jungkook groaned, his nails digging into the elder's waist. He tilted his head back as the assault continued on his neck, fighting the urge to pin Taehyung down and touch him.

Wait. Why did he need to fight that urge?

He tugged on the hem of Taehyung's shirt and pushed it up his golden stomach. The elder got the hint and ripped it off, leaving the smooth expanse on full display.

Jungkook easily pushed the boy onto his back and climbed on top of him, removing his own shirt before latching onto one of Taehyung's nipples.

"Baby," the elder moaned, clasping his hands around the younger's head. "Fuck, that feels good."

Jungkook moved to lick and suck the other nipple, loving the whimpers falling out of Taehyung's mouth. He gently secured the bud in his mouth and pulled up, using his teeth, before releasing.

"You're so beautiful, Tae," Jungkook murmured against his skin, planting kisses all over his bare stomach. His tongue followed the faint trail of hair below the elder's navel then traced back up.

Taehyung let out a giggle as Jungkook's tongue dipped into his belly button. "Is it weird to ask if you used to fantasize about this when we were younger? About us together?"

The younger's fingers deftly unbuttoned Taehyung's jeans and pulled down the fly. He gripped the rough material and pulled down, leaving the other boy in nothing but fitted black briefs. An obvious bulge greeted him and Jungkook licked his lips at the sight.

Before he made his desired next move, however, he drew back up to the elder. "I used to, yeah. Especially when we used to cuddle. It was always difficult and awkward to try and hide my boner."

Taehyung ran his hands up and over Jungkook's muscular chest. "Well, if it's any consolation, I thought about getting you naked and having my way with you a lot."

The younger winked, his lips twisting into a smirk. "Well, I guess dreams really do come true."

"Eh, you're not naked yet," Taehyung teased, licking his bottom lip slowly in anticipation.

"Soon, Tae," Jungkook responded, crawling back to hover above the boy's pelvis. "But there's something I want to do first."

As his fingers hooked underneath Taehyung's briefs, the elder gasped. "Oh yeah? So show me."

Jungkook sent him a devilish grin. "I'll show you."
