Unit you come home

The kitchen was quiet except for the faint hum of the fridge. The scent of dinner lingered, but it didn’t matter. All Jungkook could feel was the warmth bhind him Taehyung’s arms locked around his waist like he was trying to merge them into one body.

Taehyung:

“Kookie… please… just stay like this for a little longer. Don’t move. Don’t even breathe too far from me.”

Jungkook:

Tugging at the hoodie sleeve but softening under his touch

“Tae… I’m supposed to be cooking. You can’t just”

Taehyung:

“No. No cooking. No chores. No distractions. Only me. I missed you too much today. I don’t even remember what the sun looked like without you here.”

Jungkook rolled his eyes, though a small smile tugged at his lips. He knew arguing with Taehyung like this was pointless Taehyung’s clingy, dramatic energy was impossible to fight, and honestly… he secretly liked it.

Jungkook:

“…Fine. But you’re ridiculous, you know that?”

Taehyung:

grinning, leaning his head against Jungkook’s shoulder

“I know. And you love it. Don’t pretend you don’t.”

Jungkook sighed, but the sound was soft, half amusment, half exasperation. He had to admit there was something about Taehyung’s neediness that was comforting. No matter how dramatic, how clingy, how insistent he could be, it made Jungkook feel needed too.

Before Jungkook could step aside, Taehyung gently grabbed his wrist, spinning him around. Their faces were only inches apart now. Jungkook’s breath caught at how close Taehyung could make every little moment feel.

Taehyung:

“Just… look at me. I need this. I need you. I don’t want to be without you right now. Please, Kookie.”

Jungkook’s heart softened completely. He had never seen Taehyung so openly vulnerable before usually, his clinginess was playful and teasing, but now it was raw, desperate, honest.

Jungkook:

“…Okay.”

Taehyung didn’t wait. He leaned in slowly, brushing his lips against Jungkook’s in a kiss that was soft, lingering, full of everything he had held in all day. It wasn’t rushed or hungry it was careful, tender, a silent promise.

Jungkook’s eyes widened slightly in surprise but quickly melted into the embrace. He rested his hands on Taehyung’s shoulders, letting the warmth seep through him.

Taehyung:

“I’ve been waiting all day… for this. For you. Only you.”

Jungkook:

Takes a soft, shaky breath “Tae… you’re so extra.”

Taehyung:

“And you love it. Don’t lie.”

He held Jungkook closer, burying his face into his neck, nuzzling softly, the subtle scent of shampoo and soap filling his senses. Every heartbeat felt synchronized — fast, tender, alive.

Jungkook’s hands moved from Taehyung’s shoulders to rest on his arms, holding him back just enough to steady him.

Jungkook:

“You’re really the neediest person I’ve ever met.”

Taehyung:

smiling into the crook of Jungkook’s neck

“And you’re mine. Don’t forget that. I need you. I want you here always. Even when you try to pretend you’re too busy for me.”

Jungkook chuckled softly, resting his forehead against Taehyung’s temple. He could feel the warmth radiating from Taehyung’s body, the gentle tremble of his breathing, the clinginess that refused to let go.

Jungkook:

“…Fine. Just this once. But don’t expect me to cook like this again.”

Taehyung:

“Once? No… I don’t plan to ever let you go like this again either.”

They moved together to the living room, still wrapped around each other like they were magnets. Taehyung pressed Jungkook gently against the couch, arms tightening around him as if letting go would be catastrophic.

Taehyung:

“Stay here. Don’t move. Just… be mine for a little while. I want to feel this, all of this. Don’t leave.”

Jungkook:

“…I’m not going anywhere, Tae.”

They kissed again, slow, sweet, playful at first, then tender, full of silent confessions. Taehyung held Jungkook close, his hands stroking along his back as if memorizing the shape of him. Jungkook rested his cheek against Taehyung’s shoulder, letting the warmth fill every part of him.

Taehyung:

“I love you, Kookie… more than I can even say.”

Jungkook:

smiling softly, holding him tighter

“I love you too… even if you’re ridiculously clingy.”

Taehyung:

“And I will always be. Always. Because I can’t do this life without you. I need you, Kookie. I always will.”

They stayed like that for a long time arms wrapped, lips pressed, hearts beating in tandem. The world outside could wait. Work, school, errands, worries… none of it mattered anymore.

All that mattered was them.

All that mattered was Taehyung holding Jungkook and Jungkook letting him.

Taehyung:

“Never leave me alone again.”

Jungkook:

softly, brushing his thumb along Taehyung’s jaw

“I promise… never.”

They curled up together on the couch, still holding, still kissing, still wrapped around each other like it was the safest place in the universe. And for the first time all day, Taehyung felt completely at peace needy, clingy, dramatic, but fully, completely happy.

Because Jungkook was there.

Because Jungkook was his.

And he would never let him go.
