Unit you come home

Jungkook comes home from a long day, and Taehyung who should be the calm, cool, confident top turns out to be the neediest, clingiest man alive. He can’t handle being away from Jungkook for even a few hours. What starts as whining turns into warmth, teasing, and a whole lot of domestic sweetness.

Jungkook unlocks the apartment door quietly

Jungkook:

“I’m home…”

He barely finishes before Taehyung appears from the hallway, hair fluffy, sleeves too long, looking like he’s been pacing the apartment for hours.

Taehyung:

rushing forward

“Kookie ! Finally. Do you know how long you were gone?”

Jungkook:

“It was literally work.”

Taehyung:

“It felt like five years.”

He grabs Jungkook’s arm and pulls him inside like he’s scared he might run away.

Jungkook:

“What did you even do while I was gone?”

Taehyung:

“…Waited.”

Jungkook:

“Just waited?”

Taehyung:

“Yes. I can’t focus without you. My brain shuts off.”

Jungkook snorts.

Jungkook:

“Aren’t you supposed to be the cool top?”

Taehyung:

“No. I’m needy. Hug me.”

Jungkook:

“You have a blanket.”

Taehyung:

“I said hug me, Jungkook.”

Jungkook sighs in defeat the “fake” kind, because he loves this man too much.

Taehyung leads him to the couch, but instead of sitting next to him, he pulls Jungkook onto his lap like it’s natural .

Jungkook:

“Tae! I can sit beside you.”

Taehyung:

“No. Here. I want you here.”

Jungkook:

“You’re ridiculous.”

Taehyung:

“And you love me.”

He wraps his arms around Jungkook’s waist, chin resting on his shoulder, eyes closing like he finally feels safe.

Taehyung:

“Why were you gone so long…?”

Jungkook:

“It was a normal shift.”

Taehyung:

“I hate normal shifts.”

Jungkook:

“You hate anything that removes me from your sight.”

Taehyung:

“Correct.”

Jungkook turns his head slightly, amused.

Jungkook:

“You’re insane.”

Taehyung:

“No… I’m yours.”

Jungkook pauses ears turning a little red.

Jungkook:

“…Say it again.”

Taehyung:

whispers

“I’m yours. And I love you.”

Jungkook:

soft smile

“Yeah… I know.”

Taehyung tightens his hold, burying his face in Jungkook’s shoulder.

Taehyung:

“Don’t disappear for that long again. I missed you too much.”

Jungkook:

“…You really are the neediest top ever.”

Taehyung:

“Only for you.”

Taehyung still had Jungkook on his lap, arms locked firmly around his waist like he had no intention of ever letting go.

Jungkook:

“Tae, I need to put my bag down.”

Taehyung:

“Put it down later.”

Jungkook:

“It’s literally on my shoulder”

Taehyung:

“Then we can share the burden.”

Jungkook laughs under his breath.

Jungkook:

“You’re unbelievable.”

Taehyung:

“And in love. That’s the problem.”

Eventually, Jungkook manages to wiggle off Tahyung’s lap but Taehyung instantly follows him like a shadow.

To the entryway.

To the kitchen.

To the fridge.

Everywhere.

Jungkook:

“…Are you following me?”

Taehyung:

“Yes.”

Jungkook:

“Why?”

Taehyung:

“If I don’t, I might die.”

Jungkook closes the fridge slowly.

“No way he’s being serious,” he thinks.

But Taehyung stares at him with tragic, puppy-like sincerity.

Jungkook:

“You’re grown.”

Taehyung:

“Emotionally? No. I need my Kookie.”

Jungkook:

“You’re not a baby.”

Taehyung:

“Then stop treating me like one and give me what I want.”

Jungkook freezes.

“…Oh?”

Jungkook:

“And what do you want?”

Taehyung steps closer, towering just a little, but somehow still the neediest person ever.

Taehyung:

“I want you to stay close. Just… here.”

He gently takes Jungkook’s wrist and brings his hand to Taehyung’s chest.

The steady heartbeat thumps against Jungkook’s palm.

Taehyung:

“…It slows down when you’re home.”

Jungkook looks down, a soft color touching his cheeks.

Jungkook:

“You’re really something else.”

Taehyung:

“I’m yours. That’s what.”

They move to the kitchen counter.

Jungkook starts preparing food, but Taehyung stands directly behind him arms around his waist, chin on his shoulder.

Absolutely no distance allowed.

Jungkook:

“Tae, I can’t cook like this.”

Taehyung:

“Then don’t. Just stand here with me.”

Jungkook:

“…You’re supposed to be the top, you know.”

Taehyung:

“So?”

Jungkook:

“So maybe act like one?”

Taehyung tightens his arms around him, voice low and warm but still soft and clingy.

Taehyung:

“I am acting like one.

I get what I want…

and what I want is you right here.”

Jungkook’s breath catches for a second he hates how easily Taehyung affects him.

Jungkook:

“…Fine. Just this once.”

Taehyung:

“It will never be just once.”

He nuzzles into Jungkook’s neck.

Taehyung:

“Kookie… don’t leave me alone tomorrow.”

Jungkook:

“…I have work.”

Taehyung:

“Call in sick.”

Jungkook:

“I’m not calling in sick just because you miss me.”

Taehyung:

“Call in sick because I love you.”

Jungkook nearly drops the spoon he’s holding.
