PLAY ON- Taekook

"Everybody get in the same seats as last time." Coach Park instructed us as we all got on the train, ready to finally go home.

"I'm gonna miss Gangnam." Taehyung frowned as we sat down, him taking the seat next to the window.

"Me too, but at least you're not giving me the silent treatment anymore." I chuckled, handing him a packet of chips and taking one for myself.

"Don't remind me." He pouted as he teared the bag open "I'm so sorry, I should have listened to you."

"Don't worry about it, it's in the past now." I smiled as Taehyung laid his head on my shoulder, snuggling up to me as the train departed shortly after. We fell asleep like that, loving each other's warmth.

About an hour later, I felt a tap on my shoulder and stirred awake. Jaehyun was standing there, looking like he just woke up as well. "Get up, we're in Seoul." He yawned, walking away right after. I looked over at Taehyung and gently shook him, not wanting to startle him. His eyes fluttered open, immediately meeting mine before looking around and realizing the train had stopped moving.

"Wake up, we're here." I smiled, Taehyung returning one before standing up to grab his bag.

Not long after, we were all in separate taxi's on our way home. I picked up my phone and decided to text Taehyung.

Tae:)

Babe are you there?

What do you want

Ouch

Sorry i'm grumpy when i'm tired, is everything okay?

I'll forgive you🙄 Do you want to hang out tomorrow?

I cant :( I have two shifts at the club.

I'm very close to stabbing your boss.

I won't stop you.

I'll visit you there, we can sneak out during your break

Yay! I'll see you there .

I put my phone down, smiling to myself as thought of somewhere to take him during his break. My phone started ringing almost immediately after. I picked it up, seeing my dad's name on the screen.

"Hey dad."

"Hi son! How was the trip?"

"Amazing, we won the tournament." I announced, feeling proud of myself.

"That's my boy! I knew you would." He chuckled on the other side of the line. Suddenly, I remembered Taehyung. I realized that my father didn't know about him, or about my sexuality. Guilt rushed through me, and as scary as it was, I needed to talk to him.

"Dad, a-are you busy tomorrow?" I asked, sweating a little.

"No, i'm free as soon as I leave work." He hummed, not noticing my nervous demeanor.

"Do you mind if I come to talk to you guys? There's something important you need to know."

"Of course, i'll let your mom and Somi know." He replied enthusiastically as the taxi pulled over under my house.
