Falling For Your Contract Husband's Friend || Taehyung Fanfiction

Chapter 16

Author's POV: 

"Taehyung." You waved at him as he asked, "Are we leaving formalities now?"
"Isn't that better?" You smiled as he nodded, looking at you with a smile. He looked at the time, it was 2:03 pm. 
You were done with your meeting and Taehyung insisted on picking you up. You got into his car and a strange warm feeling arose in you. 

You were in his car. 

You looked around, a soft smile playing on your lips when you saw a plushie behind the backseat. He noticed your smile and said, "You love plushies, don't you?"
"A lot..." You smiled as he drove towards the restaurant. You usually loved staring out of the window but right now, you stared at the man beside you. 
You noticed his hands and how veiny they were. Beautiful fingers, you thought. You looked at his arms flexing. Gosh, did he work out? 
He did play basketball. He must have strong arms and legs, you thought. 

He noticed your stare on him and smiled a little.
"Are you thinking about something weird? Your stare's quite creepy." He joked as you frowned, "Hey! I'm not thinking tha- what the heck..." You scoffed, looking away. 
He chuckled as you replied, "I mean, you're not that bad-looking. That's all I was wondering." 
"Thanks." He smiled. 
You smiled a little as you both soon reached the restaurant. Entering the restaurant, you both walked towards a table. But before you could sit, he stopped you and pulled out the chair for you, making you look at him in disbelief though you couldn't control your smile. 

As you sat down and looked at him sitting across you, you spoke, "Are you buttering me?"
"Could say so... I'm trying to coax you. Very hard, indeed." He smiled as the waiter approached you both. You rolled your eyes playfully, "I wouldn't say it's working." But it did work. It was working fully. Because your heart was pounding so hard and it melted with every smile he gave you. 
He didn't even have to do things to coax you. His existence alone was enough to kill you at this point.

You both ordered some food and sat down, eating. You smiled because the food was so good.
"What's your favourite food?" He asked. You thought about it for a while, "I like... anything that's good. I don't particularly have a favourite food. Do you?"
"Hmm... I like many things too."
"Then is there any food you hate?" You asked as he said, "Bitter food... I can't handle those. I hate medicines."
"Aren't you a doctor?!" You asked, frowning-smiling. He shrugged, taking a bite of his pasta. You looked at his pasta, wondering if it was good. Should you have ordered that? 

Taehyung noticed your expression and asked, "Do you want to try mine?"
You looked at him, feeling awkward about it, shaking your head. But seeing his smile, you smiled and leaned in saying, "Let me have a taste." 
He smiled widely, giving his plate to you.
"Wanna taste mine?" You asked as he smiled, nodding. You both switched plates and you noticed that you had his fork with you right now. His fork.

The one he used to eat right now.

And he had yours. 

You didn't know about yourself but you were not sure he was comfortable with the fork so you took a new one from the container and handed it to him but he just smiled, "It's okay. I don't mind. Don't worry." 
You stared at him as he tasted your food, "Mine's better." 
You didn't know how to feel. It was fine with you because... it was him? You didn't know. If you shared forks with anyone else, you'd almost puke. The only person you shared forks or chopsticks with was Mina and now he.

Because you tasted his food as well. It was good.
"Mine's better though." You said as he said, "You're just lying."
"I'm not!" You frowned as he chuckled. You smiled a little as you both continued eating. Later on, you ordered a pastry and you both shared it because no one was in the mood of having too much sweetness but again, a little sweetness was needed.
