Painted Love | Hwang Hyunjin

12

A few days later, I made my way to Hyunjin's dorm, juggling four large bags of takeout. I'd called ahead to ask the boys what they wanted to eat, and their orders were massive. How could they eat so much? As I approached the building, Hyunjin was already waiting outside. He quickly took the bags from me and leaned down to place a sweet kiss on my forehead.

"You could've called; I would've come to help you carry this," he scolded gently.

I just smiled. "It's fine. Let's go inside, or the boys will eat each other alive," I said. We hurried inside, and as soon as we entered the kitchen, we were met with loud arguing.

"Let's ask Mui! She's impartial!" Han yelled.

I looked at them, confused. "What's the matter?" I asked.

"Which is the best Stray Kids song?" he demanded.

I looked him dead in the eye. "Red Lights," I said.

Han stared at me for a moment. "Okay, I forgot that her boyfriend is sexy dancing in that one. She is totally biased," he said.

I giggled and felt Hyunjin wrap his arms around me from behind. The boys continued to argue. "Red Lights, huh?" he whispered in my ear, and I could hear the smirk in his voice.

I turned towards him and leaned onto the counter behind me. He put his hands on either side of me, trapping me between him and the counter.

"Duh? I mean... the chains? Hyunjin, I watched that video an insane number of times. I sometimes watch it when I..." I started but glanced at the boys, who were all pretending not to look at us, "nevermind, I'll tell you later." I grinned.

Hyunjin tilted his head and squinted. "You're teasing me," he said.

"How am I teasing you?" I asked innocently. I knew what he was thinking, but he was always teasing me, so it was my turn this time.

"Don't do it with the boys around, please," he pleaded quietly.

I smirked. "Two can play that game," I whispered and jumped up onto the counter. He pushed my legs apart and stood between them. I couldn't help but think about another scenario where he would push my legs apart... but I quickly pushed that thought to the back of my head. God, since being with him officially, my thoughts had become so... dirty.

"I'm not even teasing you," he whispered.

"But you started! 'Red lights, huh'?" I imitated him. I turned around for a moment, checking if the boys were watching. When they saw me turning, they quickly all looked away. "You guys are some stalkers, you know that, right?" I asked.

"I don't know what you mean," Chan quickly said while staring at the ceiling.

Hyunjin placed his hands on my thighs, his thumb slowly rubbing the inside. "Stop being so naughty," he whispered so the others couldn't hear, "or I will be when we're alone."

"Maybe I want you to be naughty," I whispered back.

"Stop flirting and come eat already! We're only waiting for you guys!" Seungmin said, annoyed.

Hyunjin squeezed my thighs one last time before releasing me and gently lifting me down from the counter. "I'm starving," he finally said, walking towards the boys.

"I especially crave dessert," I whispered to him as I followed.

"You will have some later, believe me," he replied before sitting down at the table.

Hyunjin pinned me against his door as soon as it was closed. He didn't say a word before kissing me passionately. I slung my arms around him and heard him turn the key in the lock. I giggled slightly.

"You should be a little more patient," I said as we parted to breathe.

"Well, and you shouldn't be such a tease. That's my job," he said.

I bit my lip. "Or else?" I asked, looking up at him. Suddenly, all the shyness I ever had in front of him was gone. I just wanted to be as close as possible to him.

"Let me show you. You better be good from now on, or I will punish you," he whispered, before pressing his lips back on mine hungrily, leading me towards his bed...
