Chapter Text
Jungkook stood in the hallway staring at his door. He knew Hoseok was on the other side and had no idea if Yoongi told him or not. Growing up in a family that absolutely refused to acknowledge that sex was even a thing did not give him the ability to talk about it with ease like his friends.
Talking about it with his roommate, who he was not at that friendship level with yet, was an even scarier thought. He briefly considered turning back around and staying another night, or two, or three at Jimin and Taehyungs and see how long he could avoid Hoseok. Okay. Open the door, shoes off, make a break for my room before Hoseok sees me. He thought to himself as he punched in the code to enter. Step one done. Shoes off, done. Now to my room. He thought as he turned around.
“Jungkook! Heya, I ordered fried chicken for us tonight.” Hoseok said a bit too cheerfully as he stood by their kitchen counter. Jungkook groaned internally knowing he was trapped.
“Sounds good hyung, let me just drop my stuff off in my room, clean up, and I’ll be right back out.” Jungkook replied and bolted for his room and pulled out his phone.
<Jungkook>
He ordered in dinner.
I’m going to have to hear about him and yoongi aren’t I?
<Jimin>
It will be fine.
<Taehyung>
Yeah. Just try not to imagine the details.
<Jimin>
Tae. That isn’t helping.
<Taehyung>
Opps.
<Jungkook>
I have to go back out there soon.
<Jimin>
Jungkook.
It’s just sex.
A natural human function that some people choose to partake in for various reasons.
Don’t make a bigger deal out of it then necessary.
<Jungkook>
I can do this.
<Taehyung>
You can
Jungkook put his phone back in his pocket and went to quickly wash up before heading back out to where Hoseok was waiting. His roommate had everything spread out on their dining room table. This is going to be so awkward. He thought as he made his way over.
“Here you go.” Hoseok said as he handed Jungkook a plate then turned around to grab the pitcher of water for them. “So how did your proposal planning go?”
Jungkook relaxed a bit. Maybe Yoongi didn’t say anything. “It went good, we received permission to pitch it Thursday at the client meeting, there will be three other proposals we’re going against.”
“I’m sure you’ll get it! I’ll be rooting for you.” Hoseok said smiling.
“Thanks. How was your day?” Jungkook asked politely, hoping the awkward stiltedness of their conversation was only in his mind.
“It was busy, I felt like doing a deep cleaning of all the shared rooms so it will be awhile before we need to worry about that again.”
“You didn’t have to do that by yourself, you know I’m suppose to help with all that, it’s a shared responsibility.” Jungkook responded.
“Ummm. Yeah. About that. You see, Yoongi kinda helped me with that? And ahh, The reasoning is kinda something I’ve been putting off talking to you about. And that avoidance blew up in our faces, and my cleaning was kinda my side of the punishment?” Hoseok rambled off to Jungkook, who clearly got lost halfway through.
“OoooKaaay. Did you say punishment? Ahh, well. You know, as roommates you are not obligated to tell me about your relationships or business transaction I guess you might call it, or services you use? I don’t need to know that, so umm. We’re cool.” Jungkook replied.
“Well it is kinda something you should know.”
“Nope. No thanks. I don’t need to know anything about your sex life. That’s your private matter and I am not involved in it.” Jungkook said trying to shut down the conversation.
“That’s just it. It’s not my sex life. Yoongi and I have never and will never have sex. And I don’t want to give you the wrong idea about what Yoongi is to me because. Well, just because.” Hoseok said cutting himself off from what he was about to say.
“But ahh,” Jungkook started to say rubbing the back of his neck, not really knowing how to proceed. “Well. Last night. Ahh, I ran into him? And he called you a client, and well. Since he stays the night, I kinda thought, you know. I mean, well at first I thought he was just your fuckbuddy? But then he said client, so umm. Yeah…” He said trailing off embarrassed.
“I ahh, don’t know how to say this. We don’t, um. We don’t have sex. Or anything romantic or sexual like that. It’s more of a stress release for me, calms me, like when people go get massages, it feels good and relaxes people? It’s like that but more for my mind.” Hoseok started to explain while Jungkook continued to look a bit embarrassed and a bit confused.
“So like a therapist?” He asked.
Hoseok chuckled nervously. “Not quite. But I mean, I guess in a weird way kinda.” He laughed. “Have you. Ummm, do you have any experience or have heard of BDSM?”
“You mean, like that movie? Where they get tied up and beaten and fucked?” Jungkook said eyes going wide.
“Oh god. That stupid movie. No nothing like that. That movie is the worst thing to happen to the community, idiots. Never mention that movie to Yoongi. NEVER. Unless you enjoy two hour long rants.”
“Seriously Hoseok, I don’t need to know any of this about your umm, bedroom activities. It’s ok! I don’t judge, whatever makes you happy!” Jungkook said and started to stand up to clear the table, so he could just get out of there, the less he had to think about Yoongi and Hoseok together the better for his future mental health.
“And I’m trying to explain it’s nothing sexual or romantic, we are not even friends really, close acquaintance at most. I pay him to be my dom yes, but it’s very mundane, for instance he made me clean all last night, and I continued today, he tells me what do to and I mindlessly do it? That’s the best explanation I can give, it’s like following directions and being able to turn my mind off for a night. He doesn't to sexual bdsm with any of his clients, in fact he is very much single and not in a relationship. If um. You wanted to know that. Anyway, Umm. I just wanted you to know that. Yoongi would be better at explaining all of this. You should think about talking to him next week, I know he missed having breakfast with you this morning.” Hoseok explained as he watched Jungkook clean up.
“Oh. Well thank you for explaining even though you didn’t have to. It’s really none of my business whatever you do, you’re a great roommate.” Jungkook said as he finished putting the last of the leftovers in the fridge. He turned around and faced Hoseok “I really do support you in whatever you need to keep yourself healthy.” Jungkook smiled at Hoseok then hurried to his room to think over everything he just learned.

“You never messaged us back last night. How did it go?” Jimin said as he sat down in the chair by Jungkooks desk.
“He’s not paying for sex.” Jungkook answered. “That’s not their relationship.”
“Ok, so he’s not a sex worker! That’s a good thing!” Taehyung said.
“Did he tell you want it was then?” Jimin asked.
“Umm. I don’t know if I should share, but I’m honestly still so confused.” Jungkook answered. “What do you know about BDSM? He said that Yoongi was a dom he paid for but they didn’t have sex? I guess I thought that was just like a more violent sex?”
“Oh wow. I wouldn’t have pegged your roommate as a sub.” Taehyung replied.
“No, that does makes sense though.” Jimin said nodding.
“This is even better then Jungkook having a crush on a sex worker, he has a crush on a professional dom!” Taehyung said laughing.
“Tae, please. I’m so confused as it is.” Jungkook whined as he dropped his head on his desk.
Taehyung pat the back of Jungkooks head. “It’s not as bad as it seems. Now you know they are not in any type of relationship and you having a crush is not creepy and weird anymore.” He said.
“Oh, it’s just as weird, but not creepy or wrong.” Jimin interjected. Jungkook let out a groan and banged his head against the desk a couple more times. “It’s not that bad. Talk to him next Monday, have breakfast with him again and see how it goes.”
“I don’t know if I want to show my face to him again.” Jungkook replied.
“Yes you do. And he probably wants to see you as well. You have a week to get use to the idea.” Taehyung said and stood up. “Let’s get back to planning our presentation, get Kookies mind off this.”
🥞😳🍳
Jungkook turned off his alarm and stared at the ceiling. He knew any minute he’d hear Hoseok's door open and Yoongi make his way to the kitchen. Or well, he assumed Yoongi would be going to the kitchen. Ok. If Yoongi goes to the kitchen I’ll go out and talk to him. If he leaves that’s enough of a sign to give up and hopefully never see him again. Jungkook thought to himself as he continued to lay in bed.
He heard the door open but instead of hearing Yoongi walk down the hallway he heard a soft knock on his own door. “Jungkook? You here and want to do breakfast this morning?” He heard Yoongi’s voice say through the door. Well that answers that question.
“Yes, I’ll be right out!” Jungkook quietly yelled his answer.
“I’ll go start it then, take your time!” Yoongi called back through the door.
Jungkook got up and went to put on his usual t-shirt and shorts, but stopped halfway through pulling on the shirt. I should wear something better. But then it might look like I’m trying too hard. He pulled out his phone.
<Jungkook>
SOS. What should I wear for breakfast?
<Taehyung>
Suit and tie?
<Jimin>
Tight leather pants and that see through shirt?
That’s right up a doms ally.
<Jungkook>
Guys be serious!
And hurry. He’s already started cooking.
<Taehyung>
Kook.
Don’t overthink this.
Wear the same thing you normally wear.
<Jungkook>
Ok.
Wish me luck!
Jungkook finished putting on his t-shirt and slipped on the same shorts he always wore. I can do this. He thought to himself as he opened the door and headed out to the kitchen. He made his way down the hallway and stopped right when he got to the kitchen. Yoongi had his back to him facing the stove as he looked down at the pan. White shirts need to be banned Jungkook thought as he looked at the man, shirt clinging to his body showing off his smaller but muscular arms as he cooked. Jungkook sighed as he stepped into the kitchen area and headed to his normal seat at the counter.
Yoongi turned around as he heard Jungkook sit down. “Morning Jungkook!” Jungkook smiled back when he saw Yoongi look over.
“Morning hyung. What’s for breakfast today.” He saw Yoongi smile grow as he asked him.
“It’s a special breakfast today. I thought we could finish off that syrup from a couple weeks ago. I’m making steak and bacon stuffed french toast with just some scrambled eggs on the side.”
“Oh wow, that sounds amazing hyung.”
“It’s not much. How did your planning go from last week?” Yoongi asked.
“It went great.” Jungkook answered. Yoongi continued to keep the conversation light and Jungkook relaxed and felt his anxiety of the whole situation leave as he watched Yoongi cook them breakfast. In no time at all Yoongi was setting the plates on the counter. He stood across from Jungkook while they ate and continued to talk.
“This was so good hyung. Absolutely delicious.” Jungkook said after he finished off the last of the french toast and leaned back on the chair.
“I’m glad you enjoyed it.” Yoongi said as he picked up the plates and walked over to set them in the sink. He walked back over and leaned on the counter. Jungkook sat back up and made sure to keep his eyes on Yoongi’s face and tried very hard not to glance down, the loose neck of the shirt giving him a view all the way down the mans chest. “I was hoping we could talk a minute, about last weeks misunderstanding. I know Hoseok already talked to you, but I’d kinda like to explain as well.”
Jungkook exhaled, he knew it was too good to be true to get out of this without another awkward conversation.
“You don’t have to hyung, Hoseok explained everything, and I don’t really need to know any details about your arrangement or anything. I’m ok with everything I promise.” Jungkook said.
“I want to though. I won’t go into any details, that’s for Hoseok only to share. But I wanted to apologize for making it seem like Hoseok and I had anything other then a professional relationship. I can see how without knowing it could come across as something it’s not.” Yoongi stated. “And, umm. I really don’t want you thinking I’m in a relationship with him.”
Jungkook eyes widened as he saw a light blush come across the older’s face as Yoongi looked down after saying that.
“Oh. Well, It’s ok. I don’t really know or understand anything about what you do or what it all entails, but I don’t need to know any of that. But yeah, I get you’re not in any type of relationship with him.” Jungkook look down at his own hands as he fiddled with them on the counter, pretty sure his ears were redder then Yoongi’s cheeks. He saw Yoongi’s hand come into view and slowly take one of his.
“I’m glad you don’t think that anymore.” Yoongi said softly as he threaded his fingers through Jungkooks. “I’d really like to take you out on a date sometime. If you would want that.”
“Y-You do?” Jungkook said looking up at Yoongi.
“Yes. I do. I’d like to get to know you better, spend time with you outside of this kitchen, on more then just Monday mornings.” Yoongi answered back.
Jungkook broke out in to a big grin and tightened his hold on Yoongi’s hand. “I’d really like that hyung, a lot. A lot a lot.”
“You free tonight?” Yoongi asked.
“I can be.”
“I’ll pick you up at seven then.” Yoongi slowly removed his hand from Jungkook’s and stepped back. “I got to go, but I’ll see you tonight.”
