A/N Hey....

Wassup

How have you enjoyed or not enjoyed the book, any comments, or criticizem you would like to hash out so I can better my writing in the next books



Doyoung POV



Doyoung was sitting in Taeyong's office, his feet up on Taeyong's desk, crinkling a few papers that were probably valuable, but Doyoung was to bored to care

Doyoung raised his head, hearing knocking on the door

"Come in!"
He said as he reached for the bowl of candies that Taeyong had on his desk, popping one of the mints in his mouth, letting his tongue roll it around in his mouth

The door opened, Taeil walked in

"Hey Tae-..... Doyoung I don't think Taeyong would like it if he saw your feet on his desk."

Doyoung shrugged
"Meh, if he wanted to kill me he would've done it by now."

"You have some messed up ways of making decisions."
Taeil said, shaking his head

"Yep."

"Anyways, I have this book for you since you're so bored."

Taeil said, handing Doyoung a book with a worn leather cover, and uneven pages, the whole thing was tied together with a shoelace looking string

"What's this?"

"A book."

Doyoung gave Taeil a unamused look

"I know that, but what's it about, who wrote it, I need information."

"It's a book with a bunch of cool words and their definitions... Written by me."

Doyoung raised his eyebrows at Taeil

"Really?"

"Yeah."

"When did you have time to write a whole ass book?"

"Uh... I used to own a book store, and I wrote it then."

"Ohhhh... Isn't that when you and Kun met?"

"Yeah."

"Ah cool... Well I'll read it."

Taeil smiled

"Cool!"

Taeil turned around and walked out the door, leaving Doyoung with the book

Doyoung ran his hands along the cover, opening it, running his hands through the crease in the binding, flattening the first page against the others

The calming smell of the book reaching his nose, making him smile at the comforting smell

Doyoung then begin to read the first page out loud

"Nyctophilia. The love of darkness or night; finding comfort or relaxation in the darkness."

Doyoung smiled at the picture that was hand painted along with the picture, it was a night sky, with little stars sprinkled here and there

Doyoung flipped through the pages, one word on each page, each word had a little picture that matched the meaning to go along with it

Doyoung was so emersed in the book, that he never noticed Taeyong walking into the room

"Comfortable?"

Doyoung nodded

"Very."

Doyoung looked up, seeing Taeyong leaving against the doorframe, his arms crossed
