"I-i-i"
He said it was okay, but it feels a little like you're going to crush your new found fling if you tell him you're still head over heels for your best friend... or ex best friend. You did yell at him and slam the door in his face.
"He-he probably hates me now." You sniff, changing the subject, getting up out of Taehyung's arms to grab a glass of water to calm your burning throat. "He probably hates you more right now too, it might not be such a good idea to talk to him."
"Hmm, maybe you're right. But I have an idea I don't think even he can turn down." He says cryptically following you to the kitchen.
"Oh really." Your interest is thoroughly piqued. "And what would that brilliant idea be, oh great mastermind?"
Tae leans against the counter crossing his arms over his chest just as Jungkook had done a few days ago. His hand reaches up and toys with his top shirt button, as he concentrates on putting all of the thoughts together that have been brewing in his head.
" A throuple. I mean, he will fuck anyone right?"
"Except me, yes." You snark, starting to come out of your sorrowed state.
"What about me?"
"You? You're bi?"
"On occasion, yes."
"Seriously???" You're slightly shocked. He's not someone you would have pegged (pun intended) as someone who swings both ways. But as he nods, you think about it, his reaction to Jungkook admitting he was bi, was more telling than you thought at the moment.
"Well, then- then yes he probably would fuck you. He probably would have picked you up at the Mixer if you hadn't already been talking to me."
He raises an eyebrow with a slight smirk.
"Really?"
"Don't pretend you don't know you're gorgeous." You roll your eyes, a smile dares to crack through your crumbling cynical exterior.
"You're right, not everyone is born this fabulous." He jokes, tossing his head, and flicking the curled ends of his long hair just behind his ear.
"Oh and incredibly humble too." You jab at his side, setting your water on the counter, as you lean your head against his shoulder, feeling your burst of snarky energy fading. "You really think he'd go for a throuple? Are you really okay with that? Be-because I'd really like that..."
"I am," He nods softly, uncrossing his arms to envelop you in his embrace, holding you close to his warm chest. Taehyung presses his lips to the top of your head, kissing you before speaking again, letting you feel his deep velvety voice rumble in his chest. "I think it's worth a shot asking him. I'll wait until later of course.... But baby... if he- if he says no, would you consider me alone as an alternative."
"Mmhmm." You nod, voice breaking in your throat. You really don't want to entertain the thought of Jungkook turning you down officially. But then again maybe Taehyung is better for you in the long run... "I do really like you Tae. I appreciate you doing this for me."
"I really like you too baby, but I'm doing this for myself too. If you hadn't been at the mixer I definitely would have gone home with Jungkook." He huffs a laugh and kisses your head again. "I'll get him straightened out later... Do you have a key to his apartment?"
The doorknob to Jungkook's apartment turns slowly as Taehyung creeps in, glancing around the dark room making sure the coast is clear, before taking the key you gave him from the lock, pocketing it for safekeeping.
