20. dumb

"because... i might have to kiss you then."

taehyung felt his heart beating in his throat when his eyes locked with the dark brown ones right in front of him. taehyung's point of view was now higher than jeongguk's, since he sat on his lap, but even that didn't make him loose the feeling of being submissive in the moment.

"y-you wouldn't do that," he whispered quietly, only to earn a smirk from the male under him, whose expression didn't change at all and remained smug. "and what if i would?"

taehyung shook the suffocating feeling aside for a moment and scoffed. "that's not a funny joke. please stop." taehyung tried to come over as unbothered as possible, but his cheeks were redder than ever and jeongguk noticed his heavy breathing. he smirked.

"it's not a joke..." he leaned even closer, "who said i wouldn't kiss you?" he whispered, his cold breath fanning over taehyung's lips. the younger sucked in a deep breath. was this really happening? jeongguk must be joking, he'd never kiss taehyung. right?

taehyung wasn't sure if this was a joke, a prank or serious. but he wasn't certain and as long as this was the case taehyung can't show how this is affecting him. how he feels for jeongguk. so he just laughed, pushing jeongguk's face away. "stop this, bun. you're annoying," he pulled out his familiar insult of calling jeongguk 'annoying', making it seem more natural. and he felt like he succeeded in doing so.

jeongguk stared at him, with a bored expression. "you're so dumb, taehyung," he said, before getting up.

baffled, taehyung got up too. "dumb?! why am i dumb?" he scoffed as he ran after the older boy, who ignored him. "you can watch a movie if you want to, i'll go to sleep." jeongguk didn't even spare him a glance and taehyung stood there confused and watched him leave. why did this feel wrong?

furrowing his eyebrows, taehyung turned around to walk towards his bathroom, to get bed ready. he wasn't going to watch the movie without jeongguk, even though he had declared of enjoying that as much as with the ravenette.

doing his skin care routine and the usual teeth brushing and stuff, taehyung couldn't help his thoughts to stop wandering around to what jeongguk did and said. and why was he mad? taehyung looked up to the mirror as he brushed his blue hair through. maybe he'll dye them tomorrow, the roots are really sticking out now.

he sighed and walked out of the bathroom, aiming for his room, but as he placed his hand on the door handle, he felt suffocated and wrong at place. he turned around and looked at the door leading to jeongguk's room, that was right across from his.

and once he felt the icy metal of the door handle to jeongguk's room against his palms, he knew this was the way to go. he slowly opened the door a little at first and then more, when he received no reaction from the male inside.

no wonder, he seemed to be asleep. taehyung's heart felt heavy, it was obvious that something was bugging the older male earlier and now he fell asleep that way. the blue haired closed the door quietly and slowly walked towards the bed, before slipping under the bedsheets next to his best friend.

jeongguk is already used to sometimes falling asleep alone, but then waking up with the younger boy sleeping next to him. it's something taehyung always does ever since jeongguk began sleeping over at his and ayeong's up to the point where he now moved in with them and had his own room. taehyung barely slept in his own room, feeling ten times more comfortable with jeongguk.

jeongguk was sleeping soundly, he hadn't budge even once since the moment taehyung joined him. taehyung pouted as he looked to the older's face. he was sleeping on his side, one arm resting under his head, his eyebrows lightly furrowed and lips closed.

taehyung wondered how someone can be this beautiful while sleeping. he slowly reached his hand out, just like last time, it seemed to happen from alone, and began caressing his soft skin, eyes following his thumb's movements.

it was hard for taehyung to hold back from touching jeongguk and it was never that hard before. taehyung's features turned sad, realizing that what he was doing was wrong and something he shouldn't do with his best friend. but why the hell did jeongguk flirt with him like that today?

and why did he even say stuff like that? taehyung wondered if he would've really kissed him like he said. it was strange, taehyung had never thought about jeongguk being able to say something like that. to him.

he hated how good jeongguk's skin felt under his touch, how amazing he felt in his presence, here lying next to him, something they had done so often, yet now it began to feel different.

the blue haired's thumb softly caressed the older male's lips now- he wasn't even realizing how long he was doing that, time seemed to pass by so quickly, but at the same time this moment felt so long.

but his wildly beating heart seemed to stop when a hand wrapped around his wrist. taehyung's eyes widened, his breath hitched as he looked to his wrist that was now held tightly by a tattooed hand. "if you want to kiss me, just do it."

taehyung literally froze, mind going blank. "i-i'm sorry, d-did i wake you?"

jeongguk opened his eyes and got met with the view of a nervous taehyung. "no," he answered and taehyung let out an relieved sigh.

jeongguk smirked. "i was awake the whole time."

maybe taehyung wanted to get swallowed by a hole here and now.
