Chapter 26 / Confessions

My blood ran cold as Taehyung just stared at my face, expressionsless. His gaze made me wanting to hide somewhere, that's how unsettling it was. But to my dismay he still hovered over me, so there was no escape for me.

Was it this bad what I said? Was it too soon? No, that couldn't possibly be it. We've been through a lot in those past months, so I somehow had a right to finally say it out loud, didn't I?

My anxiety raised with every slow passing second waiting desperatly for a reaction.

Any reaction.

He blinked twice. "You... love me?"

I couldn't help but swallow hard. He sounded like I was insane for saying that in the first place.

I started to really regret how easily those words had rolled off my tounge.

He stood up and let me stand up too, I already thought about running out of the room since I had the chance now.

I took a run for the door when he grabbed my wrist and pulled me back, embracing me in his heavenly scent. He hugged me close to him and leaned down to my ear.

"I love you too."

His whisper sent chills down my spine. Though I hugged him back. He rested his head in the crook of my neck as we just stood in each others arms, enjoying the comfortable silence since we both didn't know what to say nor do.

He retracted his arms ever so slightly, just enough space so he could press his lips onto mine.

Just like every time when we kissed my insides began to melt as our lips perfectly fit together, like it was meant to be us.

Creak.

At the squeaky sound of my room's door we parted, eyeing towards it.

In the frame stood Jimin, arms crossed and an amused smirk plastered tugging on his plump lips.

"Alright, if you guys are done being all lovey-dovey we can eat dinner. I can't believe you didn't even hear us coming home. And to be honest, I don't even want to know what you did to cover the sound Hoseok's screaming over that tiny spider in the kitchen."

In a swift move the older guy was down the hall, humming to himself in entertainment.

Taehyung and I shot us a gaze and laughed. There was no use in being embarrassed too long when you live with six other sweet-but-perverted guys.

After dinner I went back to my room to just get some work done.

I had recieved a few collaboration offers from individual modeling, advertisement and sport fashion agents, but I didn't have the energy nor the time to read through each and every of them. So that's what I did tonight.

I recognized a few of the offers as well known and good paid businesses, but I wouldn't have time for this until December.

The world tour was just around the corner and I needed to focus on my career as a freshly baked idol before I could think of other smaller jobs.

I wrote back to a few of them, asking if I would still be needed in half an year. But most of them I just ignored or sorted out.

I was about to close my laptop when a new email came in. It didn't have a title nor any sender, so I clicked on it to find out myself.

When I opened the email I was greeted by nothing. It was blank.

I tried scrolling, and that was a freaking mistake.
