15// MOVING IN

In his eyes, she still shone like a star even though the sky was too dark that it almost swallowed her.

Not only the darkness of the sky.

The darkness of her social anxiety. Of her past.

But she still shone. Because she had hope. Her newfound hope was Taehyung who she liked and adored and felt safe around even though it was a short period since she knew him.

She still shone because she had happiness. Her circle of good friends were the happiness she worshipped, because, without them, she wouldn't be able to live.

After their dinner date, the two started walking outside in the park opposite the restaurant.

"Are you sure you aren't cold? I wish I didn't leave my suit jacket in the car, so you could wear it now." Taehyung wordily said as he looked at her bare arms.

"Taehyung... I am fine, how many times do I have to tell you?"

The two continued walking until they found some seats and sat down. Side by side, and their arms touched each other. Taehyung immediately cursed Jimin for forcing him to wear a suit, which means wearing a long sleeve shirt. Only if he had worn a T-shirt, now he would be able to feel her skin grazing his own.

Stupid ass! What are you thinking about?!

He cleared his throat and decided to break the silence and distract himself from her warmth which he felt.

And there was something else in his mind that he wanted to say as well, but didn't know how to.

Okay, it's not that difficult.

"Y/N, A likes B, B likes C, C likes D, E likes F and F likes I. But I don't like F, you wanna know why? Because I like U."

She blinked her eyes twice before getting what his purpose was. She looked at him for a while before he looked away with an awkward chuckle. Guess she didn't get what I said, but she already knows that I like her! I should ask her what I want.

"Sorry about that."

"Ah no, it's okay."

"Y/N. Will you be my girlfriend?"

The boy was internally shocked that he right away blurted out those words. But was proud anyway, he finally is going to be her boyfriend.

Y/N's boyfriend. Y/N's lover. Y/N's protector.

She knew he'd ask her that. Since he said go out with me, she knew what he wanted. It was the same thing she wanted as well.

A relationship with Taehyung.

"How many times have I crossed your mind?"

"Once." He answered. Not hesitating. Not regretting what he said. Making the girl join her eyebrows together, tilting her head as she looked at him.

I have crossed his mind once? She sadly thought. Then why was he asking her out if she had crossed his mind once? How did he even like her?

He smiled at her confused face and could sense the sadness that crossed her eyes. "You have crossed my mind once because you never really left it after that."

Her heart skipped a beat at his words. He will be the cause of my death. Not to mention his glowing face under the moonlight.

"Then, yes. I will be your girlfriend." She answered, a hue of pink dusting her cheeks as she shyly looked down at her thigh.
