Stethoscopes And Soulmates:A doctor's heartbeat

Unspoken Tension

“Ah, speak of the devil,” Taehyun teased, a grin spreading across his face.

Shaneil raised an eyebrow, trying to hide her annoyance. "I heard my name. What are you all up to?"

Alaya gave a small smile. "Just talking about how Taehyun's flirting game could use some work."

Taehyun feigned offense, a hand on his chest. "Hey, I'm wounded. My flirting skills are top-notch, thank you very much."

Yoongi couldn't help but roll his eyes. "Please, Taehyun. Your flirting is about as smooth as sandpaper."

Taehyun pouted, but his eyes twinkled with amusement. "You're just jealous of my charisma, Yoongi."

Yoongi leaned back, a smirk on his face. "Jealous? Hardly. I just have a bit more finesse than you do."

Taehyun chuckled. "Finesse, huh? I think you mean you're too afraid to take a risk and make the first move."

Yoongi raised an eyebrow. "Risk? I don't need to take risks when I know how to be charming and respectful at the same time."

Taehyun snorted. "Respectful, maybe. But charming? I doubt it."

Yoongi shrugged. "You doubting me just proves that you're intimidated by my effortless charm."

"Oh, please," Taehyun said, rolling his eyes. "Effortless charm? You're basically a walking mannequin."

Yoongi feigned offense. "Walking mannequin? I'll have you know that I'm quite animated...in my own subtle ways."

Taehyun laughed. "Subtle, huh? Is that your way of saying you're boring?"

Yoongi shook his head, amused. "Boring? No, I just prefer to be understated. It's a more sophisticated approach."

Yes, Alaya and shaneil are also present in this scene. They stand to the side, listening to Taehyun and Yoongi's playful banter with slight amusement.

Alaya leaned against the wall, a small smile playing on her lips. "Ah, the banter between these two never ceases to entertain."

Shaneil chuckled, crossing her arms. "It's like watching two overgrown children trying to one-up each other."

Alaya nodded, a hint of curiosity in her eyes. "Yeah, reminds me of my younger siblings. Although, I have to admit, it's nice to see them letting loose a little."

Shaneil raised an eyebrow. "Letting loose, or just being their usual obnoxious selves?"

Alaya shrugged, still amused. "A bit of both, I suppose. But hey, at least it's entertaining."

Shaneil let out a sigh, a mix of annoyance and grudging acceptance on her face. "I suppose you have a point. It's definitely better than them brooding in the corner."

Taehyun glanced over at them, a smirk on his face. "You two enjoying the show?"

Alaya smiled mischievously. "Oh, we're just observing your performance, Taehyun. You know, for scientific purposes."

Yoongi gave a smug grin. "Scientific purposes, huh? More like waiting for us to embarrass ourselves, I bet."

Shaneil chuckled. "You're not wrong. It's like watching a live comedy show, only it's free and the laughs are guaranteed."

Taehyun feigned offense again, a playful pout on his face. "Glad to know we're here purely for your entertainment."

Alaya couldn't help but poke fun. "Well, we do need something to brighten up our day, and your banter does the trick nicely."
