Secrets // Taegyu + Yeonbin FF // TXT FF

Chapter 8: Fell asleep

Soobin's POV:

I couldn't sleep last night. I barely got three hours of sleep. Usually, I would've slept more until I hear shatter, screams, and yells again. But this time, I just decided to escape before it all started. So I woke up earlier than usual.

I went to some cafe away from my house to have breakfast with the money I've got. I just bought some bread bun and had it with water they gave out for free. That's how I'd usually start my weekend when I'm not at school.

I wanted to text Taehyun since, even though I am an introvert, I would love the company of my best friend. But I know for a fact that Taehyun had gone to bed when it was 3 am, if not later. So I didn't even bother texting him.

I was walking around the park near the cafe I was just in and an idea came to my mind. I don't know why, but I thought of Yeonjun-hyung.

'Should I text him?' I thought. I don't know if he is asleep or not, I just don't want to be alone.

It's almost lunchtime and I've been sitting here for about an hour and a half. It sounds like a lot and it does feel like a lot when you have no one sitting beside you.

I decided to text him anyway.

Yeonjun's POV:

I checked the notification as soon as I got it. It was a message from Soobin. I didn't even notice how I was constantly smiling just remembering about him until I heard Beomgyu's comment:

"You're so easy to read, hyung. It's him, isn't it?"

"Yeah..." I said dreamily.

HOLD UP. I DIDN'T MEAN TO SAY IT OUT TO SAY IT OUT LOUD-!!!

As I realized, my face was already covered with red color as I kept trying to keep my phone screen facing away from Beongyu for him not to see it. I don't even know why I was covering my screen, but that smirk of his had me panicking, knowing what he was thinking.

"He just wants to hang out." I blurted out.

"You're so cute, hyung." Beomgyu kept being nosy and kept teasing me. I knew it. It's exactly what I thought he'd think.

I was already annoyed but his other question actually caught me off guard and made my heart beat faster.

"Do you like Soobin-hyung-???!" he exclaimed excitedly. My eyes widened.

"W-well... yes I do, we get along well..."

"You know what I mean, hyung!"

I admitted that I am interested in Soobin. There's something about him that keeps me interested and I want to know more.

I texted Soobin about where he wants to meet up and as he answered, I was on my way.

"Hey, Soobin!" I called out as I noticed him. His face lit up as he saw me approaching.

"How are you doing?" I asked.

"Doing good now that you're here." he smiled innocently as I laughed at the smoothness.

"Aw, how sweet. I'm glad I make your day~" I recollected my thoughts that suddenly turned into chaos. Don't know what was going on in his head but he definitely got shy. I mentally smirked wider at his reaction.

Cute.

3rd person's POV:

The two spent time just walking around everywhere. Yeonjun would always admire the younger's smile as he would laugh. The way his eyes would close adorably was the cutest thing. There was something about Soobin's smile that will make Yeonjun want to smile as well.

But after a short while, the energy of the younger started to fade away. He looked exhausted. Yeonjun, as the oldest, offered to go to eat lunch. Even when they did, Soobin still didn't look too good. As they continued walking, Yeonjun slowly led the way to his house since it didn't feel right.

Soobin was too busy talking to notice where they were going.

"Oh, we're at your place, hyung?" Soobin asked as the two stood on the porch.

"Ah yeah, I hope you don't mind."

Soobin was actually glad they won't have to walk again. He felt really exhausted.

He felt even more happier when Yeonjun suggested to just watch a movie with some snacks like they usually do.

What he didn't know, is that Yeonjun noticed the boy's condition and wanted him to take a break and rest. He knew that confronting Soobin about it was not an option, since he would deny it.

The two boys sat on the couch in the older's room and started the movie. Soon enough though, Yeonjun felt something bump on top of his shoulder. He looked to the side and saw Soobin in the dreamland.

'Finally.' he thought, relieved that Soobin will finally get the sleep hours he needs. He grabbed a blanket from the side of the couch and covered both of them with it. He layed his head on top of the younger's and closed his eyes.
