playboy || jaeyong ✔

- five -

taeyong whined and whined while his best friend just sighed deeply. breath in and breath out. they were at the school's rooftop the other day, drinking their canned caffeine.

taeyong hasn't been this whiny since he came into his apartment. and somehow yuta knew the cause of it. he knows taeyong better than anyone after all.

"let me guess. this is because of jaehyun?" the japanese asked and taeyong whined louder and nodded slowly.
"what did he-

"he confessed to me."

"he what?!" yes, it was yuta shouting. and for the first time ever taeyong covered his ears because of that.

"he confessed to me, i said." the older repeated and yuta stared at taeyong, not knowing whether to be happy for him or be mad at him. but one thing for sure, it made him jealous.

taeyong has always seen yuta as his best friend and never more than that. he didn't know why but even though he's gay, he was never attracted to yuta in any way. meanwhile yuta felt differently about his best friend.

"so, did you accept him?"

"i like you, lee taeyong."

"w-what?"

"be my boyfriend. please?" the younger's eyes show sparkles under the light. honestly taeyong didn't expect for the school's playboy to like him either. taeyong was just taken aback.

"i-i'll think about it."

"take the time all you want. but i can't hold it for long if you take much time."

"whaaatt." yuta opened his arms and shook it.(a/n: ehem i don't know how to explain it but yeah like just imagine ur teacher asking u why u didn't finish ur homework but in a slightly mad tone ;))

"i don't know, yu! he's a playboy and... and..."

"yeah he is a playboy. don't you know playboys can break your heart?" yuta sighed. his shoulders weaken when taeyong stated his words.

"i just like him since he first moved into this school. i've held it in." the older said and pouted. yuta was shocked for the nth time that day. his best friend held so much secrets within himself that yuta never even expected.

"so that one time where you said you'll never get attracted to him is a lie?" and taeyong nodded as a response.
"yong, you've kept so much from me. are we even best friends?"

"we are but-"

"but what? everytime i saw you, you were always filled with secrets and you won't tell me until i start to talk about it or force you to tell me. what are we?" yuta cutted his words. and for the first time ever probably in his relationship with the japanese, taeyong felt mad but sad at his own best friend at the same time.

"you think it was easy just to tell you randomly out of nowhere? you think i don't care about your business as a student counselor? how you worked your ass off just to get inside there and learn nonstop? you're my best friend. and even so, i don't think it was necessary to share everything to you. it would be a burden to you. that's why i don't want to tell you especially in the wrong time." taeyong pointed his fingers at his best friend and stormed out of the rooftop. taeyong didn't know why they fought. their friendship was the definition of inseparable, no one can set them apart except themselves. perhaps that day was just the day. the older planned to apologize though, but not any time closer. he needs time. oh how he wanted to hit himself for getting angered up to yuta just because of simple things. he knew he was wrong to bottle up things just to himself. and yuta just wanted to help him. but he was too considerate that he just kept that to himself and the younger didn't want that.

walking through the hallways alone felt different. usually the senior would have his best friend by his side. now it somehow felt empty beside him and he didn't like that feeling at all. it was a few days after, though. friday it is.

as he was about to climb the stairs, someone pulled him into the janitor's closet.

"hey!" taeyong felt warmth. that warmth was so familiar but he couldn't get a grasp of who is was.

"shh. yong, it's just me." the man across him chuckled. they were super close, their bodies were touching. but he didn't feel awkward. instead, taeyong hugged back the male in front of him and snuggled closer.

"jae." the older called out. the younger who held him in his embrace hummed.
"you're my boyfriend now."

"so you accepted me?" jaehyun asked again to make sure and he felt the smaller male nod and giggled. he hugged taeyong tighter in his embrace, making the older hummed and chuckle. just when they were enjoying their moment, the door opened.

"get out. now."
