Temptation [ Min Yoongi | ENG ]

E I G H T Y T H R E E

"Darling, have you bought the plane tickets yet?" Maud, rolling over on the bed to look at me.

"Yoongi bought it on his card last week." I said, sinking my head into her shoulder. "Why?"

"I'm going to buy with Evi this week too ... I can't believe they stayed a year and a half to invite us and now the wedding is only less than three months away."

"10 weeks." I noticed. "Time really passes quickly, right?"

"Yea! So much!" She said, hugging me. "I miss sleeping with you."

"You can sleep with me whenever Evi travels for work."

"I wish! You are always with Yoongi. " She made a face. "Boys are boring." I laughed at her expression.

"Oh, it's not that much, is it?"

"It is quite yes, but no worry... I'm just playing with you." She offered me a peace offering smile.

"I know you do." I poked my tongue at her.

"Is everything okay with you?" She settled down to see my face better.

"Yea. All very well. I think that now we found a good rhythm for us. That intensity of the beginning has passed, but it seems to be better now."

"I think one can see from the moon how much you are in love..." her expression was calm. "But what about the things that made you breakup before, isn't there really some resentment?"

"Hm..." I thought a little about her question. "I don't think about it much. I try to focus on the now, how good he is to me at the moment when he is being good, you know? It is not as if I have completely forgotten it and it is not as if this insecurity does not exist deep inside. But I can't be with him if I can't allow it to not interfere with our relationship."

"Do you promise to reach out for me if you are sad?" She asked me seriously.

"I can't promise you, but I will try, I know that you are a good friend and will always help me." I offered.

"It's not exactly what I wanted to hear, but I accept it. I'm ready to kick anyone's ass for you." She smiled, making me smile along.

We got out of bed and I got dressed and headed for her kitchen while she went to shower. I realized that it had snowed sometime between the time we arrived at her house and the time we got up.

I had already put everything on the table when she entered the kitchen with her hair still damp.

"Oh. Did you see it snowed?" She asked, craning her neck to see through the window.

"Um hmm."

"I'll take you home, but my car doesn't have a rack, we can't take your bike."

"Not a problem. I can come back for it another time or we'll put it in Yoongi's car in case we come here before."

"What are you going to do after here?" She said while buttering a slice of bread.

"I'm not sure, a little self-care, I think? I need to take care of my face."

"Take care of what? You have that smooth skin there, You didn't even have a pimple when we were teens." She said, pretending to be annoyed.

"Yeah, but have you seen my mom's pictures? I'm not getting any younger and she seems to have become a raisin at 30 years old. Genetics is a serious matter, my friend."

I was washing the remains of the clay mask off my face when I heard the front door to my apartment open. A few minutes later I noticed him standing at the bathroom door.

"I'm going to buy the oil for your door. Doesn't that noise annoy you?"

"It does, but my memory is worse than my annoyance. I open that door so little."

"Just to get in and out." He pointed.

"Twice a day, on the days I stick my nose out of the apartment." I said, poking my tongue at him.

He came towards me and took the towel that I had left over the sink and finished my job at cleaning my face.

"What do you think about going to Decathlon tomorrow?"

"The sporting goods store?" I asked, confused, except for the bike as means of transportation, none of us were athletic. We were two smokers!

"Yes, Julian said that he bought clothes with UV protection there, we will need some as we are going to the Caribbean soon and... well, look at our skin."

"Um... I hadn't thought about that, but do you think they have bathing suits there too? I need new bikinis."

"Bikini? Caribbean, Roos... "

"Hey, isn't the Caribbean the ideal place to wear a bikini?" I said as I put my legs on his lap and laid on the couch, ignoring the concern in his voice.

"But the sun rays are very strong!"

"Imagine the heat that is there for me to be all dressed up, Yoongi. I'm going to use cream sunscreen, thank you very much... but yes, we are going to Decathlon tomorrow."

"I never win with you." He offered me one of his adorable pouts and started to massage my feet.

"You don't, but you like it." I shrugged and smiled one of my best smiles at him.
