16. I Don't Like Them

A/N: I don't like complaining to you guys about personal issues. I really don't. But I'm going through a breakup with a best friend of two and a half years (I accidentally said a calm thing in an aggressive way since I was in a bad mood. He then went on to text me all day about how childish I am, insulted me, my future career choice and my stories, and then invalidated how insecure I am about having thick thighs amongst other things). It was stupid, but it led to a horrible blowout between us and I'm done with him. I should've ended it a while ago for these exact reasons. Anyway, just wanted to say that it's kind of hurting me a little bit so I'm sorry if it blocks my creativity at all ❤.

He may think my stories are stupid, but his dumb opinion doesn't matter. All that matters to me is writing stories that you guys will appreciate and hopefully I can put a smile on your faces sometimes 🤧❤.

*The next morning*

"Taehyun," Beomgyu said softly from the bathroom. When Taehyun didn't wake up, he said it louder. "Taehyun." Taehyun only groaned and Beomgyu walked over with his stuffed animal under his arm to nudge his shoulder. "Taeeee."

The boy finally moved a little bit, stretching and rolling over. Beomgyu groaned and then whimpered when it made his head hurt.

"Are you okay?" Taehyun asked, sleepily reaching his hand out to hold Beomgyu's.

"Can we go downstairs? I wanna watch TV."

Taehyun nodded and sat up, sitting there for a minute before tiredly picking Beomgyu up and carrying him downstairs. He sat on the couch, sighing when Beomgyu didn't get up and just cuddled into his chest.

"I thought you wanted to watch TV." Beomgyu nodded and turned his head towards the TV, still cuddled in Taehyun's lap as the younger put on a random cartoon. "Are you feeling a little better?"

"Yeah." Beomgyu nodded, grabbing Taehyun's hand to play with while he watched the screen. "What is this show?"

"I don't know," Taehyun laughed. "It just looked interesting."

"I don't understand what's happening."

Taehyun laughed again and Beomgyu pouted.

*Two days later*

Beomgyu felt better a couple days ago, but Taehyun stayed at his house to hang out with him yesterday. Now it was Monday, and Beomgyu was nothing but happy when Taehyun drove them to school on his motorcycle.

When they parked, everyone looked at them. Taehyun had someone else with him? And then Beomgyu took his helmet off and all of them gasped.

"Look at that. They're all nosey because of how cool you are," Taehyun said, grabbing his stuff and wrapping his arm around Beomgyu's shoulders.

"I still don't like them looking at me though."

Taehyun looked at all of them and then gently kissed the side of Beomgyu's head "Just ignore them. Remember, you're better than all of them anyway."

Beomgyu nodded, smiling as they walked inside together. It wasn't any different inside. But this time they saw Beomgyu's friends and Taehyun looked away when Soobin looked at him.

"Beomgyu?" Yeonjun asked in disbelief. "Coming to school with the bad boy now?"

Taehyun shook his head and continued looking away from them, making Beomgyu sigh. "Yeah. And if you have a problem, then-"

"No, it's fine," Kai said. "He seems... okay."

Taehyun finally looked at him with his jaw clenched and all three of them stepped back. "Taehyun," Beomgyu groaned. "Don't act like that."

The blonde just looked at him for a moment before turning on his heels to walk away with Beomgyu still latched onto his side. "I don't like them."

"They don't like you either. But they're still making an effort."

Taehyun didn't say anything further and Beomgyu scoffed.

This was weird.

After homeroom, Beomgyu went to sit next to Taehyun at science and leaned his head on the boy's shoulder. "What's wrong?"

"Nothing. I'm just... I don't know."

"Tired? Hungry? Horny?" Taehyun's eyes widened and Beomgyu started laughing. "I'm kidding." Beomgyu moved his attention to the teacher who started talking and Taehyun stared at him for a while.

In reality, he was just confused. It might've been why he was in a weird mood. He was confused because yeah, they kissed a lot, which made him smile while thinking about it. And yeah, they rode on his motorcycle and had fun. But they never actually started dating.

Or at least, Beomgyu never said they were.

And of course, Taehyun was too embarrassed to ask himself, so now he was just going to sit here pouting the entire day without knowing what to do.

A/N: Sorry this was so short. I thought it would be a good place to end off for the next chapter though.

Love you all ❤.
