Simplicity- KTH

"So what are you thinking?" Jimin asked.

"It's too soon, isn't it?" Taehyung asked. He had told Jimin that he was thinking of asking Sarang officially to be his girlfriend. He had known her for a bit over four months but he didn't know her personally up until about a month and a half ago.

"I can't give an opinion. Yoongi and I have known each other since pre-debut, we'd known each other for years before dating." Jimin commented. "But you don't have to know someone that well before dating. You get to know each other pretty well during. I thought I knew that man but I was completely wrong." He added.

"So what do you think?" Taehyung asked, wanting a true and honest opinion from his soulmate.

"I think it's not too soon to ask her out, but I also think you could wait a little longer. She's not going anywhere. Girl is hooked." Jimin said.

"You think so?" Taehyung asked.

"Are you blind? She looks at you the same way Kookie looked at Namjoon in the beginning." He laughed. "I guess it's in every Jeon bloodline to look at people that way," he joked.

"I guess I could wait a little longer. But you're helping me when the time comes." Taehyung decided.

Seemingly, time seemed to fly. Taehyung would take Sarang out on little dates every now and then. He did all he could to get to know her and spend as much time with her as possible. He would practise with her for the dance event Soonyoung was in charge of and would reassure her that she was doing things well. Some days they would go on walks together and simply chat while they passed by park benches and trees. Sarang was falling more and more for Taehyung. He became so essential to her. Her day didn't feel complete if he wasn't a part of it. Taehyung also began to realise how fond of her he really was. Everything she did, he admired. The two were truly made for one another. There wasn't a single doubt that they loved each other and that there was a strong connection between the two. They had already been together sexually, but you can have sex without being in love with someone. What pulled them together was a mental, soulful and emotional connection. Of course there was a physical attraction too but that was nothing compared to everything else they felt.

Sarang didn't feel butterflies, she felt security in place of nervousness. Taehyung didn't think with his body, but he thought with his heart. Little things began to remind him of Sarang. He wanted to keep her close and make her feel loved, he wanted to be her sense of comfort. Sarang's thoughts were consumed by Taehyung. There wasn't a single moment where he didn't cross her mind.

"Okay, one last practice before tomorrow." Soonyoung shouted for everyone to hear. "Give it your all." He said before playing the song one last time for all the dancers. He made his way to the centre of the front line where he was positioned for the choreography. Hoseok was off to the side watching and taking note of all the dancers. Taehyung was also beside him but only focused on Sarang.

He watched proudly as the girl he liked so much was killing it. She moved so in sync with the entire front line, her body moved so gracefully with the music, she was one with the music. As the song came to an end, a smile crept onto his face, watching how flawless the last practice until sound check and performance the next day was going. He was extremely excited for all of the dancers. But especially Sarang. He knew that this would get her name pushed further out there in the dance world. It was a beautiful feeling. He was extremely proud.

"You did so well!" He said to her, handing her a water bottle.

"Thanks, I'm so tired." She said with a light laugh before sitting on the floor. "I might actually die. It was nice knowing you." Sarang said dramatically before playing dead.
