Chapter Text
It isn’t fair. The thought ran past Jungkook’s mind as he stared at the maknae. Seokjin literally had everything. The looks, the body, the charm. All at the tender age of 19 years old. Really god? Why you gotta be so unfair?
Jungkook watched as Seokjin giggled his signature screenwiper laugh, entranced. Already, he could see the interview’s heart melting. Jungkook really understand how the host feels. When Sejin Hyung told all of them that the maknae was arriving, Jungkook was expecting an average kid who was talented at either singing or dancing. Living in Busan, he didn’t see a whole lot of handsome guys there.
Then poof. Seokjin stumbles into his life, literally, and redefines handsome for Jungkook. To say he was entranced was an understatement.
“So Seokjin, as the youngest of the group, do you have a favourite Hyung?” The host asks and suddenly all eyes are on Seokjin. Noticing the attention, Seokjin nervously giggles and looked around. Jungkook glares as Taehyung and Jimin not so subtly point to themselves. Hoseok guffaws and massages Seokjin's shoulders immediately.
“I…I don’t have a favourite Hyung! All the hyungs love me a lot. Maybe a little bit too much.” He smiles at the interviewer, seemingly wanting to put a stop to this question. The interviewer insists though and Seokjin blushes so lightly.
“I really don’t have a favourite Hyung but Jungkookie Hyung has been helping me out with cooking and dancing lately. Sooo I really like him a lot.” A giggle then he hurriedly says “But of course, all the Hyungs are the best!!”
That could most possibly be the most adorable thing that Jungkook has ever heard in his entire life. He tunes out the indignant squawks of the other members beside me and instead replays what Seokjin said. A huge huge smile spread over his face.
Jin ah. I thought I’m your favourite hyung?!
Wait but Jin, I help out with laundry too!!
Seokjin struggles to placate the other members as Jungkook sits there with a huge ass smug smile on his face. “Well, we know who the maknae likes the most now.” The host laughs and concludes.
After the broadcast, all of them walked back to the waiting room. Well, most of them walked. Seokjin was tugging a koala Taehyung and Jimin who were still bothered by the favourite hyung thing.
“Jimin Hyung, Taehyung Hyung!! I really like the both of you as well.” Seokjin beams and wraps his arms around the both of them. Probably stunned by that smile, their grips loosens and he managed to escape, running over to join Jungkook.
“Jungkook Hyung. You should have helped me.” Seokjin whines, tugging ever so slightly on Jungkook’s sleeves.
Cute. “Well, they’re just salty that they’re not your favourites. Awe, I didn’t even know you had such a big crush on me. Don’t you Jinnie?” Jungkook teases, pinches his cheeks and ruffles his hairs. Seokjin huffs and squinted his eyes, releasing his grip on Jungkook.
“Hmph Hyung. You always tease me. I won’t pick you next time.” And a pouty Seokjin stalks off.
“Huh? Wait Seokjin ah. I’m still your favourite right?” Jungkook calls out, maybe a little desperately.
No reply. “Seokjin ah?” Jungkook tries again.
“We’re his favourites now.” Jimin and Taehyung stage whispers in his ear, a huge grin on their face, before running to catch up with Seokjin, and slinging their arm over him.
Jungkook swears he’s going to kill the 95z one day. Not before earning back Seokjin’s favour though.
