Savage Love

8. Usually Would Never Even Care

It smells like you
This road that I walk on
I plug my earphones to my status
My true feelings lie beyond there

"Hey there, vixen."

  Joohyun raised her eyebrow at her boyfriend. "That's my nickname?"

  He nodded with a smirk, slinging an arm around her shoulder. "Yeah. Princess is too girly. Joohyun is too normal. And many of my ideas were either too boring and not you. Besides kitten is too soft and you are anything but soft."

  She scoffed in mock disgust. "How do you know all that?"

  He shrugged. She groaned at his flirty look. "Did you think of me indecently?"

  Again, he shrugged. "What makes you think that I wouldn't?"

  She shook her head at him, looking around, thinking of a way to get back at him. They were at his penthouse. He had spammed her phone at as early as 4am, pleading with her to come over. He wasn't in his shared dorm because his friends were out to visit their families. Hers too. If there was something they both had in common, it was that they didn't get along well with their parents, siblings or relatives. So, they stayed back.

  She stared at Taehyung, taking in his attractive appearance. He looked way too in a plain grey and white hood tracksuit. Slowly and carefully, she leaned closer to him while he was distracted, and pushed him down gently. He became alert the moment his back hit the couchtress. He watched his girlfriend warily as she nonchalantly wrapped her arms around him and dug her face in his neck.

"Hug me."

  He shivered when her hot breath kissed his nape. Slowly wrapping his arms around her, he snuggled into her warmth. He was wary for the first few minutes, knowing that she would get back at him. But when she did nothing but snuggled into him, he kissed her head and closed his eyes, barely slipping into subconsciousness when he felt her warm lips move slowly on his nape. He ignored it until he felt a sharp pain. Hissing, he opened his eyes but couldn't get words out when he felt her suck harshly on his neck.

   He groaned when she found his sweet spot, making her apply more pressure. He moaned again when her hands roamed around his body. Just when he was feeling hot, she stopped.

  His eyes flew open in confusion. He turned his head to see her sleeping. Frowning, he swore to get back at her when she woke up. But for now it was time to sleep.

Baby why you far away?
I can't get used to you not being here
I feel like something is missing
I just want to be together with you always

  He stared at the image on his phone longingly. She looked so happy that he regretted what he did to her. He was too blind to see what was right in front of him.

   He glared at the figure next to her in disgust and hatred. He was the reason he was like this. As the sihoulletes moved away, he looked at the picture with tears in eyes. As he remebered her trauma, he broke into fits of heartbroken sobs.

When I realized that we were only able to meet inside this smartphone
You appeared before my eyes
Today too I feel the sadness of not being able to see you
Contrary to my feelings time passes rapidly
Even if I feel insecure
I believe that my heart will not leave you
My heart will reach past the wind
I am always under the same sky

    He cried out loud in agony. He was under the same sky with her. His heart never left her, even when he thought it did. 

A sudden thought rang through his mind. His friend deepened and he gritted his teeth.

'I'm sorry. But I can't let you be happy without me.'

Everything is for you~
Everything is alright
Even if there's no answer
Everything is inside your smile

  Taehyung smiled at his girlfriend. These days he has been feeling lighter than usual. Joohyun was feeling the same way. Both weren't good at simplifying their feelings by words but they could through their words. That is why a single 'I love you' meant a lot than just the words. It meant they loved each other's perfect imperfections, each other's characteristics. They loved that they understood each other. They loved what made them themselves. And they wouldn't want to change each other for anything.

"Hey lover boy."

"Hmm?"

"You've been staring at me for minutes now."

"So?"

  She shrugged, looking up at the clear night sky.

"Do you think I should dye my hair this color?"

  He smiled, giving her a side hug. He looked up at the sky, and looked at her from the corner of his eyes simultaneously.

"Do whatever you want. You look good in anything."

  She smiled at him, wrapping her arms around him. He copied her actions, pecking her head.

"You're right. I do."

  He smirked. "I didn't complete the sentence."

  She looked up at him. "Yeah?"

  He pecked her forehead. "You look good in anything."

"That's what you-"

"I'm not done." He cut her off, placing another kiss on her nose. "-Everything." He kissed the corner of her lips. "And nothing." He kissed her jaw and left a trail of kisses to her earlobe biting lightly. She hissed at him. He chuckled, flashing a playful smirk at her. She frowned at him before laughing. His face broke into an adoring smile. She looked so ethereal as the moonlight shone on her velvet silver hoodie.

  Suddenly, he felt an ominous feeling in his gut. Like someone was watching him in disgust. He got really uncomfortable and worried. So he nudged Joohyun. She turned to him with a dazzling smile and with that, the feeling subsided a little. He dragged her to the direction of his car. As he drove away, a feeling of relief washed over him. He took a deep breath and drove home peacefully with Joohyun.

  Peacefully as in Joohyun teasing about him moaning in the afternoon. Which reminded him that he never got back at her. The car ride was filled with laughter and teasing. He thought back to what he felt back then. He was uncomfortable, but he was more worried. For him and Joohyun. But for her mostly. He didn't have a good feeling about that place. He turned back to her now peaceful sleeping figure on the bed. He smiled. He usually would never even care about anyone but himself in that situation except if the guys were with him. Even if he did, it wouldn't be as much as he did for her. She really was someone special. And he was more than fortunate to be with her.
