When Taehyun arrived in front of Beomgyu's house, his knees were wobbly and he felt like he could collapse at any moment. He ran as if he were being chased; without a single stop for breath. He sprinted at full speed all the way to Beomgyu's house. The boy's lungs burned, his chest felt heavy, and his throat was dry beyond belief, but he didn't mind the fact. He was able to push the pain aside and ring the older's doorbell.
A long while passed and Taehyun was about to try again when the door abruptly opened. Through the threshold was the sight of Beomgyu, a large white blanket draped over his shoulders. His eyes were red, as was his nose. His cheeks were flushed and his face was puffy, sporting an unreadable expression.
"Taehyun?" Beomgyu's voice focused the younger away from his appearance. "What are you doing here?.."
"Hyung.." Taehyun started softly. "I wanted to apologize for yesterday." Taehyun paused for a second and waited for Beomgyu to interrupt his words like Yeonjun did. But the older didn't, so the boy continued, "I do like you, hyung. I was just.. worried and anxious.. And if the offer still stands, I'd love to go to homecoming with you. And maybe we could start going out after that if you'd like..?"
Beomgyu stood still, processing Taehyun's words. While his expression never changed, Taehyun could see a battle of emotions in the older boy's eyes. Wordlessly, Beomgyu pulled Taehyun into his house and wrapped his arms around the boy's neck, entrapping the younger in a bone-crushing hug as the blanket around his shoulders fell to the floor. "I-I'd love to, Hyun," he sniffled.
Taehyun, slightly caught off guard, stilled for a moment before wrapping his arms tightly around the older's frame in return. "Fuck, I thought you hated me," the younger breathed out as he held Beomgyu impossibly tighter.
Beomgyu chuckled. "Even if I wanted to, I never could," he softly spoke as he slowly broke their embrace.
'Let's try this again..' Beomgyu thought as he trailed his hands down Taehyun's arms to grab the boy's hands. This time, neither of the two held a single ounce of doubt or fear in their hearts. Taehyun wasn't scared, nor did he worry about his parents. And Beomgyu wasn't nervous because now he knew that Taehyun did in fact like him 'like that.'
"Taehyun-ah.. I really like you. Will you be my boyfriend?"
