Before You Go • VHOPE [On Hold]

Chapter 24: Surprise

After dinner that night, Hoseok was surprised when his dad and Taehyung revealed something. A Surprise.

"We thought you may like it."

"B-but why.." Hoseok muttered in confusion, his eyes moving back and forth from Taehyung and his father.

"Because I want to do something for you, I told you, right?" Taehyung said softly while his fingers nudged Hoseok's hand, he wanted to hold his hand but controlled himself from doing so infront of Hoseok's father.

Hoseok blushed a little, visibly speechless before he just pouted a bit.

"But the only problem is," His dad spoke, "We'll have to go to the beach at night to fire these up.." He looked at Hoseok, expecting him to remember it's not good for his health. He still was oblivious that Hoseok now knows that Taehyung knows.

Hoseok sighed a bit, "It's fine.. I kn-" He was suddenly paused as Taehyung grabbed his hand and gave him a concerned stare. Hoseok was confused now. He doesn't want me to tell dad?

He scoffed a bit before relaxing, he pursed his lips, "It's fine.. I'll stay in the car."

His dad smiled, making Hoseok smile back too. Taehyung looked at both of them warmly with a distant smile. None of them knew how much Taehyung adored their relation.. Something I never had, but being with them.. it makes me feel like I'm a small part of their family.

Around 9:30pm, everyone was getting ready. Hoseok was especially being warned to cover himself up more.

"Here— there you go-" Taehyung grinned as he overlapped another large sweater over Hoseok, buttoning it up.

"Taehyung.. you're making me a balloon.." Hoseok whined.

"No, I'm not," He protested with knitted brows and stepped back, scrutinizing Hoseok up and down with his newly formed balloon like silhouette.

"It's fucking hot in here.." Hoseok whined again.

"Aww, baby, thank you," Taehyung smiled giddily. Hoseok threw him a glare.

"I'm talking about all these sweaters!"

"Oh."

Taehyung laughed awkwardly, brushing through his hair before leaning in and tapping Hobi's nose. "It's really cold outside so this will keep you feeling normal."

"What, is there like a blizzard or something going on out there? I don't think—"

Taehyung shushed him with his finger over Hoseok's lips, "If you be a good boy, I'll strip you out of these warm clothes myself."

Hoseok blushed a little and his eyes widened in surprise, he stayed paused for a few seconds before frowning real hard from cringe, "Yikes dirty talk doesn't suit you-" He walked off into towards the bathroom.

Taehyung blinked more than he should have, "Eh..." Trying to comprehend what just his boyfriend said, now a bit taken aback, "Hey!" He exclaimed, embarrassed.

"Boys, are you ready?" Mr. Jung enquires from downstairs.

"Y-yeah-" Taehyung lets out, and with a fixated pout he squints his eyes at Hoseok, "Let's go, you meanie."

Hoseok chuckled, "You go on, I'll come in a few minutes." He said without turning, Taehyung nodded with a response.

"Okay then, don't be late" He was about to exit when he exclaimed a short and quick, "Oh!" He ran towards Hoseok and turned him, surprising him. He quickly pecked his lips without thought, "Can't do it infront of your dad for the rest of the night, so here goes. Oh, oh, and, let's kiss at midnight if we get the chance, shall we? It's goodluck for couples.. more like.. romantic and promising." Taehyung winked and laughed, "Okay sorry if I'm being cringy. I'm just excited.. anyway, I'll go downstairs now, See you, Boyfriend" He flashed his unstoppable smile and went out of the room.
