I opened the door to Liam's apartment room, well I guess it's technically our room since we all sleep in it. Liam admittedly jumped into Tae's arms. I watched as Tae picked Liam up and tightly wrapped his hands around him. Liam brought his arms around Tae's neck and snuggled close.
' Cute. ' I thought to myself as I walked over and dropped myself on the bed. Nothing was more frustrating than having to see my father. But I guess nothing is more madding then having to see my father and his bastard son for a week. Sure they got on my nerves but that day, they'd managed to reach new heights.
I heard the bed dip and a small hand wrapped around my arm.
" Papa." Liam smiled causing me to smile. His smile was genuine but he also looked tired. I sat up on the bed and sat him in-between my legs.
"Missed me?" I teased and he nodded. I ruffled his hair and smiled, as I slipped my shoes off. Tae did the same and I noticed Liam rubbing his eyes.
I looked at the clock, it was way past his bedtime. I noticed that the TV was on and I raised an eyebrow.
" You should be sleeping." I stated causing the smile on his face to disappear. His eyes grew wide and he looked away. I noticed that he had began to tug on his shirt.
"... for you two to come home." He mumbled and I put it together. Liam must've been waiting for us to sleep with him. That was adorable.
" Well, we're here now." Tae said as he turned off the TV. I picked Liam up and laid him down next to me. I could tell he was trying to fight the urge to sleep when Tae laid down next to him. I brought up the blanket and covered him. Liam being the traitor he was, turned around and faced Tae.
He almost dmittedly fall asleep. It warmed my heart to see Tae and Liam together. I didn't know how to explain it but the two of them together was just heartwarming. It didn't need to be said out loud but Liam trusted Tae. I had let a complete stranger into his life. Yet they got along as if they had always known each other. Tae had become like a second father. The one who he could turn to and trust.
" He likes you very much." I whispered after Liam had lost his battle to sleep. Tae looked at Liam and smiled. The way he looked at Liam or just the way he smiled at him. It was a genuine smile, like he really cared for him. I don't think I've ever looked at him that way.
" Thank y-." Tae's response was cut off as my hand cupped his face and I brought my lips forward to meet his. I devoured his lips until he let out a little whimper. Tae pulled himself away from me and I watched as his eyes darkened.
" Stop. He'll get the wrong idea, remember? " Tae looked at the bed and he did not look happy. My heart churned, had my words hurt him that much ? It was a stupid question. Telling someone you don't want to be seen with them would hurt anyone's feelings. That was the original intention behind those words to hurt him so he'd push him away, that way my feelings would disappear.
Thinking about it, made me realize how stupid I was. Even if he had pushed me away, my feelings still wouldn't disappear that I knew.
" I...don't care about that anymore." I only care about you. But I didn't say that part. My words caused an uncontrollable smile to creak up on his face. I leaned in and kissed him again. This time I couldn't bring myself to stop, I didn't want to pull away not even when my lungs longed for air.
He was so addicting from the way he blushed to the feel of his face against my palm.
We pulled back for air with our foreheads and nose against each other's. I felt my familiar harden, I needed to stop. Even though all I wanted was to feel his body tremble against minds. We couldn't take it too far again, not in other place where he'll have to keep his voice in.
He smiled against my lips and my heart fluttered. I looked down he was hard too. But this definitely wasn't the ideal time for that. I wanted to go out with him before that. Even if all the butterflies disappeared at least I'd have a memory to cherish.
But I couldn't directly ask him out. Not when my stupid brain still had it's stupid doubts.
" Tae." I whispered, feeling my heart pound against my chest as I forget how to breathe.
" Mhm." He hummed against my lips.
" Let's take Liam out for lunch tomorrow."

Winter break technically starts tomorrow but don't expect a lot of updates. I have a lot to do over the holidays. I have three keystones to prep for, surgery, and I have to go get my citizenship. Notice how all three things listed are things I want to get over with 😂. Also yes it was my New Years Resolution to complete three books. I have one book completed, one book with only one chapter left to write. Then there's this onec which I'm focusing on even though it has like 10 chapters left. So safe to say. I probably won't be able to finish shit.
