"Why does i feel so comfortable with you?"

Beomgyu spoke weakly as he set himself on Taehyun's chest. He softly heard the younger male's heartbeat, together with the rise and fall of his breathing.

Taehyun just chuckle to avoid, not wanting to expand the conversation. But Beomgyu is a curious cat, and he thinks it's the right time to ask.

"Taehyun, do we, i don't know, cross paths.....nvm sorry..." Beomgyu tried to ask him but Taehyun manage to keep his words constructed before releasing it from his mouth.

"Cross paths..I think we do, for countless of times" Taehyun said which made Beomgyu look at him with frustrations. Clearly he didn't understand what those words implies

Beomgyu raise to tilt his head like a cute puppy and Taehyun adore the man on his chest, very pure and a bit of silly.

"Please be honest with me, I want to know you more...if you'll let me?" Beomgyu finally gave his words, and slowly Taehyun move themselves in a sitting position.

"But.. promise me you'll believe me" Rubbing the warm hands of Beomgyu, Taehyun move himself to face the older, a better position to explain a thing, not everything.

" Actually we really do, 5 years ago."

Beomgyu spring up from the bed in shock "FIVE YEARS WHAT!?"

Taehyun chuckle as he continues to gently massage Beomgyu's hands. Then he straightly look into the older's eye.

Beomgyu felt so warm with those eyes, he felt secure and loved with just one touch of him. Sometimes he Wondered what kind of sorcery does the younger do to him, to make him roll head over heels.

"Can i ask how??"

"I am a 5 year comatose survivor. And you're part of it."

Beomgyu stayed silent for a while to digest but he suddenly burst out in laughter, "Funny, that's the 3rd joke i heard from you today!"

Taehyun was stunned, and a bit disappointed. Beomgyu thought that he was just fooling around but no, suddenly the older realize it and just stay silent waiting for the younger to add.

"I met you inside my coma phase, it's like the reality coexist in my head, creating you and me in the frame."  Taehyun explained making Beomgyu just release an awe sound, he was fascinated and very much congested with words.

"Okay... What frame we're in, Taehyun ah? " Beomgyu asked.

Taehyun lower his head, taking a deep breath before releasing his words. Words that he's unsure of telling the older, in thoughts that he would misunderstood it or worst laughed at.

"Lovers"

"Beomgyu we're married"

"for 10 years, in that frame"

Beomgyu had enough, he almost collapse his head on the pillow and just stay silent for 5 minutes long.

"So... that's why you know much about me?" Finally the unanswered question and curiosity was fulfilled.

"Everything about you"

Beomgyu gasp, contemplating from Taehyun's words and then he almost scream when he realized that Taehyun said 'Everything'. He quickly grab the blanket and cover his body on it, making Taehyun chuckle at him.

"Oh stop that, you made me look like a maniac, when we're hypothetically married "  Taehyun said, gently removing the blanket from beomgyu.

Hesitantly, "Yah! But what are you supposed me to react? You completely saw me through in and out, and it makes me feel so.. embarrassing...what if I'm bad in.. and I'm such a terrible lover..what if.." Beomgyu said almost sobbing.

Taehyun finally move to grab him on his shoulders, He make sure that his hands we're place rightfully on the part which make him comfortable.

"Hey, Don't think about it much, I assure that you're perfect in and out"

"You really know how to put your hands right on me...this is crazy.."

Beomgyu grab his hair and just stare at the sheets for about 5 minutes long again. Taehyun couldn't help but to feel mixed of pity and comedy on the older, maybe he's just taking his time to digest the information bit by bit.

After a while, Beomgyu raise his head, and Taehyun saw how red his cheeks was. "That's why you kiss me good like that, you know when and where to touch, you know what i like, you know me better than myself"

Taehyun stay silent and just nodded, "That's why you saved me..because i am your.." And Just then a tear left from Beomgyu's eyes.

"You're my love, my husband, my everything." Taehyun said wiping Beomgyu's tear, "This may sound weird but, You don't know what I've been through just to have you back. It drives me insane because the moment I came back to life, I already lose the one and only purpose I had. It just so happened that fate give me another chance, and here we are"

Taehyun said smiling fondly as he reminisce all of his experiences. Cruel yet thankful because now he's finally letting himself open and ready fo Beomgyu again.

"So please, Beomgyu...Can i love you? "

Beomgyu just stare at Taehyun with teary eyes, his heart jumps like it was ready to pop out of his body. Beomgyu can't explain how right it felt, to extent that his eyes drew tears in happiness.

Is he just carried away from Taehyun's story? or did he also thinks that fate reconnects the two transparent strings? Clearly he doesn't know. But He thought that maybe this may worth the risk.

"Be my man, Taehyun be my lover"

Taehyun quickly smile and pulled Beomgyu for another Kiss. Beomgyu this time just let Taehyun do everything, he doesn't care to submit, after all, He was his.
