Jungkook”

For Jungkook and Taehyung, this summer promised to be not a vacation, but a drawn-out torture: the teachers, hoping for reconciliation, locked the two worst enemies in the same space.

Taehyung slammed the window open, letting in the humid heat of the forest. His movements were abrupt, filled with years of pent-up irritation. Jungkook, on the other hand, stood frozen by his bed, methodically and calmly unpacking his things. His gaze periodically pierced Taehyung's back, reminding him of every failed test and every fight in the schoolyard since first grade. In this forced proximity, even the occasional sound of breathing became a declaration of war. Jungkook slowly straightened, watching Taehyung stand frozen by the window, gazing out at the summer landscape beyond.

"It looks like someone's ready to run away. Are you afraid to be left alone with me?" Jungkook asked, stopping behind Taehyung.
