"Words can't express how much I want to spend my forever with you." Taehyung says, his hands finding the curve of his waist.
"For me they can, words can describe what I feel about you." Jeongguk whispers.
"I love you." Their mouths find each other.
"CUT!"
He registers the director's voice but his mind feels fuzzy with the kiss.
Jeongguk pulls away a second too late, but when he looks at Taehyung, his expression is calm, the corner of his lips raised up a bit.
Taehyung steps back, but not before murmuring a 'good job', the younger smiles at the compliment and promises that he'll join him in his vanity van.
As he gets out of his clothes, his lips still tingle with the chaste kiss he shared with Taehyung. It was something he had envisioned himself doing for a long time now.
"Hi." He greets, stepping inside, he trudges towards Taehyung to slide next to him on the couch.
Taehyung looks up to him, with that charming smile of his and passes him a serving of ramyeon. Jeongguk gasps, scandalized, "What about diet, hyung?"
"One time won't hurt." He argues.
Jeongguk chuckles and takes the offered food, slurping the noodles happily.
"You did really well. It felt all too real, for a moment." He says, sincerely.
Taehyung looks at him with something vulnerable in his eyes, which makes Jeongguk gulp audibly.
"I wasn't acting. I meant everything I said." Taehyung replies after some seconds of tense silence.
Jeongguk sputters, "I – I.... what?" The younger thinks either Taehyung is joking or he's dreaming, because /this/ cannot be real.
The elder hesitates seeing his reaction, but speaks up, "I've been loving you from a distance, for months now."
Jeongguk's eyes burn as he realizes how his feelings are definitely reciprocated.
The younger grips his palm, his tone desperate as he speaks, "I can't understand anything, hyung. /Please/ tell me."
"Now that I've kissed you, I can't keep this inside me, thinking how I'll never get to feel that again." Taehyung wipes the tear that escapes the corner of his eye.
"You can." His voice is shaky, with how overwhelmed he's feeling.
Jeongguk fists the collar of his shirt, "You can kiss me."
Taehyung's trembling hands come up to cup his face. Seeing the uncertainty written on his features, he emphasizes, "You can kiss me, /anytime/."
The elder nods slowly, he's desperate but still cautious as he aligns their mouths together.
"I won't be able to let you go, if I do this." His whispers on his lips.
"Good, 'cause I want to be with you."
And that's when Taehyung closes the tiny gap between their lips. Jeongguk's eyes flutter close as he feels a serene sort of emotion spreading through him. The elder swallows the gasp he lets out as he feels his lower lip being nibbled on, terribly soft.
The elder pulls away much to Jeongguk's displeasure, he opens his eyes and tries to chase his lips, but all he gets is a watery laugh from Taehyung.
"Impatient." The elder tuts.
Jeongguk huffs, "I've been dreaming about kissing you for four months, hyung."
As soon as he registers his own words, a pretty blush forms on the apple of his cheeks.
"I've dreamt about it since the day I met you." He points out, winning the argument.
Jeongguk can hear his heart beating in his ears, "Why didn't you tell me earlier? We could've kissed sooner." He mumbles.
"When we met, you were still figuring out your sexuality. I didn't want to impose myself on you. Also, what if you had rejected and decided not to shoot with me?"
The younger pouts, petulantly. "Is that the reason you've never invited me to your apartment?"
Taehyung nods, smiling, a tad too breathtaking for the younger's heart.
"Is that the reason why you never let me meet Yeontan?"
Taehyung nods again, though he has his lips pressed tightly to suppress a grin.
"So not loving me is not the reason?" Jeongguk asks, a hint of insecurity in his voice.
Taehyung looks at him for a moment, but then his hands are on the younger's waist as he manhandles him on his lap. Jeongguk yelps at the action, his hands flying to the elder's shoulders.
"If I didn't love you, I wouldn't do this." He says and proceeds to press his lips on his eyes, cheeks, forehead and the mole under his lip, while the younger dissolves into a fit of endeared giggles.
"I'm in love with you. Too much love." Taehyung's lips brush at his jaw.
"I love you too. More than 'too much." Jeongguk grins from ear to ear.
"If you guys are done, we have another shoot left." Namjoon's voice filters in the van, his hands knocking at the door.
They both smile at one another until the distance between them disappears with their lips on each other.
| After one year |
"Happy anniversary, my love." Taehyung says as Jeongguk opens his eyes.
The younger smiles at how soft and cuddly the elder is looking today, "Happy anniversary, Tae."
He nudges their noses together and brushes their lips, just for the sake of contact, and even after a year, a simple kiss reminds him how much he's in love with this man.
After all, it started with one kiss.
One kiss is all it took, to make them confess.
"Words can't express how much I want to spend my forever with you." Taehyung says.
Jeongguk smiles recalling that day, so he goes with it,
"For me they can, words can describe what I feel about you."
And his heart still races inside his chest as Taehyung captures his lips in a tender kiss.
