Polar Opposites ⎜Taegyu

No One's POV

Beomgyu rested his head against Taehyun's, making sure he wasn't putting too much pressure on the other. Not stopping the comforting back rubs, Beomgyu felt the ragged breaths fanning his neck. He could feel the cold emitting from the slightly shorter, and the shivers showed how cold the blonde was.

"Hey, do you want to go home now?" Beomgyu whispered into the other's ear, pulling him closer to himself. He could feel Taehyun nod into his neck, his hair tickling the brunet a little.

When Taehyun pulled away, Beomgyu realized his shirt was wet with tears. Taehyun tried to get up by himself, but of course, his legs failed him. From the constant running over and over again for the past few hours, it was given that it would be hard for him to stand up.

Thankfully, Beomgyu was right by his side, catching him immediately and offering his back for the younger to rest on. Taehyun took a moment to understand, but after a few silent stares, he got the message and hopped onto the brunet's back.

The blonde let his head droop onto Beomgyu's shoulder, finally able to rest peacefully. The warmth spreading from the younger's heart instantly. All his fears, trauma, melted away now that he was with Beomgyu. He didn't need to worry about it now, right now, he had Beomgyu, and that's all he needed.

Taehyun's head bobbed up and down, his eyelids getting heavy by the second. Beomgyu could feel Taehyun's body tense and relax so he looked behind him for a second before saying,

"You can sleep if you want, you don't have to stay awake. You're not bothering anyone." Taehyun nodded, but was still hesitant to actually close his eyes.

"Are you sure?" A hum was heard in approval. "Okay, then I'll just rest for a little. Can you wake me up when we get home though?" Beomgyu nodded, and that was enough for Taehyun to fully close his eyes and his head hung heavy while he drifted asleep.

Beomgyu smiled a little when he heard the soft snores, he then headed over to where Taehyung and the others were. He could tell that Taehyun had gained a little weight, but definitely not in a bad way. Taehyun desperately needed it, and Beomgyu was proud that Taehyun was able to do it.

With each step, a small piece of jewelry swayed down Taehyun's neck revealing the necklace that Beomgyu had gifted him. He still wears it. Beomgyu cooed at the younger.

With a few more steps, and a bit of excessive swinging from Beomgyu, the two necklaces were able to connect together with the magnets, which put a bright, but hidden, smile on the brunet's face.

Beomgyu walked slowly over to where the others had all gathered. Yeonjun glanced over to the two and rushed over.

"I can hold him for you if he's too heavy-"

Beomgyu took a step back defensively, his face covered with judgment.

"I can do it, thank you very much. What do you think of me? Some scrawny kid that can't hold his own body up?" Yeonjun snickered, knowing very well that Beomgyu was starting to get jealous. He put up two hands backing up, turning around to go back to Soobin's side once again.

"I just found him like that, I didn't see anyone when I came in here. I just came to check in the gym after I got a call from Taehyun." Beomgyu heard Taehyung say, facing the others.

"You saw no one? No one at all?" Beomgyu questioned but softly not wanting to wake the boy currently sleeping on his back.

"No one." Taehyung lied through his teeth. But he couldn't help it, there was no better option for Taehyung at the moment. There was no way he was letting Beomgyu know that Dae-jung was back. It brought back way too many painful memories that Beomgyu had already overcome. And Taehyung wasn't willing to risk Beomgyu's happiness.
