Secrets [NAMJIN]

29

The next morning, Namjoon woke up from the sun rays penetrating the window. He completely forgot that his bedroom had a full-length window. He groaned and turned around and found a body lying there, sleeping peacefully with his back towards him. Namjoon smiled and got up on his elbow to look at Seokjin. He looked so peaceful that Namjoon could get lost in the view. He could get used to it. Namjoon turned around and closed the blinds with the remote and got up after pecking his head. Seokjin hummed and smiled in his sleep. Namjoon chuckled and wore his sweatpants and went to the kitchen.

Humming to a familiar tune, he started making breakfast. He took the eggs and flour and coffee beans. When he was mixing the eggs and flour, he felt two arms circling his waist. Namjoon smiled, "You woke up?"

Seokjin hummed, "You were not there. I was cold." He pouted.

Namjoon chuckled and turned around, "You are being a brat, hyung. Go sit on the table, I'll bring you breakfast."

Seokjin smiled and pecked his lips, "I am your brat. And let me help you."

Namjoon shook his head, "I know you must be sore. So go sit at the table and I'll bring you tea and breakfast."

Seokjin narrowed his eyes and nodded, "Fine. Just because you are right." He scrunched his nose, "I am sore."

Namjoon laughed, "Thank you for the compliment. I will also bring you meds for the soreness."

After about fifteen minutes, they sat on the table having breakfast and passed on comments on each other. Namjoon noticed that Seokjin was wearing his hoodie and chuckled.

"Why are you laughing?" Seokjin pouted.

Namjoon shook his head, "Nothing. Just that you still love wearing my hoodie."

Seokjin looked at himself and smiled, "Of course."

Namjoon nodded and resumed his eating. He suddenly got an idea, "Umm... Hyung, you know how your things are here and you are here most of the time. Why don't you just move in with us?"

Seokjin was shocked. He didn't know this would come so fast. But then, everything was going at a fast pace too. He cleared his throat, "I think we should move in together after I announce our relationship in the media."

Namjoon was confused, "But they know about us, right? They covered my house incident. They saw us together."

Seokjin looked down at his coffee, "I- My PR team handled that. They told the media that we are just friends."

"What?" Namjoon was honestly disappointed. "Why would they do that?"

Seokjin's breath hitched and he faltered a bit, "Because of the elections." His voice was so small and Namjoon barely registered it.

Namjoon rolled his eyes and sighed, "Right. Your elections."

Seokjin licked his lips and gulped, "But I- But I promise that once this all over, I will go public about us. I promise."

Namjoon thought he had heard this somewhere. Oh no! This was all like a deja vu for him.

I promise, Joonie. Once this is all over, dad would let me be with you and Eunbyul. I will be free from him and we will lead a happy life. As a family.

Namjoon started having the flashbacks about how he left them and how his father manipulated him to leave them. How Eunha would cry for appa and he could not do anything. His chain of thoughts broke when he felt a hand on his.

Seokjin smiled sadly, "That won't happen again. He has no control over me now. I am prepared this time. Don't worry."

Namjoon took a heavy breath and nodded. He finally looked at Seokjin and smiled, "I trust you."

Seokjin smiled gratefully, "Thank you. I thought you won't trust me for what happened-"

"It was not your fault." Namjoon went near to him and nuzzled into Seokjin's nose, "We both have changed in past years. We can handle these types of situations together. We have handled it." He tucked Soekjin's hair behind his ear, "You don't have to feel guilty about anything. Okay?"

Seokjin nodded and closed his eyes, feeling the warmth of Namjoon's hand when his phone rang. He groaned and picked it up, "It better be important, Yoongi!"

Gosh, why are you so cranky? It is important. We have an appointment with the doctor today. Hobi's sister agreed to be the surrogate mother.

Seokjin's face lit, "That is great. Take leave and tell Yoenjun to take your place. I am sure he won't mind that."

Thank you so much. I was just worried. The elections are near and-

"No! Your family is more important than the elections." He looked at Namjoon as if he meant the statement for him too. "Make sure you are with them at every step."

Okay. Thank you.

Seokjin cut the call and got up, clearing his dishes, "I will get ready. I think today will be the busiest day."

Namjoon hummed and hugged him from behind, "Come back here no matter how late it gets."

Seokjin smiled and turned in the hug and kissed him, "I will."

They jump from each other when they hear the door click open. They turn around and find Eunha staring at them, "Should I come back later?"

Namjoon laughed, making the other two laugh too, "You don't have to. Did you have breakfast?"

Eunha came in and nodded, "Yeonjun oppa took me and Kai oppa to the cafe and we had breakfast there."

Namjoon nodded, "Great, then go get ready for your school."

Eunha nodded and went to her room. As soon as the doors closed, Seokjin turned to Namjoon, "Two months and she will come to us to introduce him as her boyfriend."

Namjoon laughed, "1 month. Bet!"

They both laughed. Seokjin hugged Namjoon, putting his head on Namjoon's chest and sighed in the warmth of his husband.
