The Past In The Present - JIKOOK

Chapter 34

Third person's POV

A mellow mood. Dimmed lights. Smooth vibe of jazz playing at the lounge bar of the luxury hotel, while the primary group of people enjoying the live smooth jazz music. One of those people are Taehyung and Hoseok. Taehyung really wanted to share one of his interests, the music he loves with Hoseok. Taehyung is an old soul ("literally"). He just hopes Hoseok isn't board with this type of music and ambiance. 

While enjoying the music, Taehyung and Hoseok are also eating delicious dishes with a good wine, which of course Taehyung picked. Since he knows so much about wines. 

They are talking about the random things, while Taehyung also nervously keeps looking at Hoseok's face for some sort of boredom or something. He was so sure of his decision to take Hoseok to this jazz event after they were finished with the movies, but now he starts to question himself. I mean he likes those type of sophisticated and old-soul'y stuff, but he is not sure if Hoseok likes this. Hoseok is the hip guy and likes a whole lot of different music than Taehyung. But Hoseok is also a very loving, kind, easy to talk to, and Taehyung really likes him. He never liked anybody like this before. He kinda blushes inside himself, thinking of the few kisses they shared, they are still not exclusive, or even talked about it going further more than just guys who like each other and shared a few kisses.

Taehyung broke out of his thoughts, when Hoseok asked him "Hey, is everything okay? You look nervous." 

"Ha! What? Oh, sorry, was lost in my thoughts." Taehyung said, and Hoseok nodded still looking at him. 

"Ok, now or never. Taehyung! You gave to be honest." Taehyung tells himself. He takes a deep breath and asks, putting his hand on top of Hoseok's, making Hoseok blush.

 "Hoseok! Are you board of being here? I mean, I don't know, wanted to ask you that question since we got here. I know, I kind of put you on the spot and took you here without you knowing it before, that I wanted to share this with you. But you can tell me, if I made you uncomfortable or..." Taehyung kind of rambled. While Hoseok was looking at him with amused face.

Hoseok's POV

I tried not to giggle while he was rambling, but his hand on mine felt really nice. He is so cute. I mean, yeah I was really shocked when he told me after the movies that we are going on some jazz event in the hotel, I was even more shocked when we entered this luxury hotel, never saw anything like this in my life. But I actually know Taehyung's love for jazz, he told me that. I am not really a guy who listens jazz, actually never tried too, but this is really nice. So he is nervous that I am not liking this, or that I am board. I am not, I would be if it was with somebody else, but Taehyung is such a good company, he is so interesting, smart, well read, actually I am nervous being around him, he is a successful lawyer and businessman, but still him and I can talk to each other for hours. I love our phone calls that last for hours, about books, our interests, our hobbies. 

I placed my other hand on top of his and caressed it a little bit, saying " Taehyung! You don't have to be so nervous, this is really nice, the music, the ambiance, you being here with me." Hoseok said that last part, blushing hard, while a big smile appeared on Taehyung's face. 

Taehyung leaned closer to Hoseok, and Hoseok's eyes went wide for a moment. Taehyung put slowly and delicately his hand on Hoseok's cheek, making Hoseok just melt into it and lean on it. They are looking at each other, showing in their eyes that they want the same thing. 

"Hoseok. I like you, a lot." Taehyung said through the whisper. 

Hoseok's smile was only wider, and actually his eyes getting a little bit watery, how strong this urge of liking someone can be. Is this a dream, a fairytale, if it is Hoseok doesn't want to wake up.
