The Second Choice

Settling

After Taehyung dropped Y/N off at her building, he watched her walk inside, feeling a mix of happiness and sadness. As he drove away, he decided he needed to clear his mind. He placed his phone on speaker and dialed Rosalina's number.

"Hey, you home?" Taehyung asked as soon as she answered.

"Yep, just relaxing. What's up?" Rosalina's voice was light and cheerful.

"Can I come over? I need to talk and clear my head," Taehyung requested.

Rosalina's giggle was warm and inviting. "Of course, come on over. I'll be here."

"Thanks ," Taehyung said, hanging up with a sigh of relief. As he drove toward Rosalina's place, he felt a sense of comfort knowing he had a friend who he coukd let go of his frustration with pleasure and who could help him distract himself the whirlwind of emotions he was experiencing.

As Taehyung drove toward Rosalina's apartment, the weight of the evening's conversation with Y/N still lingered in his mind. He needed a distraction, a way to momentarily escape the emotional turmoil that had engulfed him. Rosalina had always been a comforting presence, and tonight, he hoped her company would help him clear his mind.

Upon arriving at Rosalina's place, Taehyung found her waiting at the door. She greeted him with a warm, understanding smile. "Hey, Taehyung. Come on in," she said, stepping aside to let him enter.

Taehyung walked in, his demeanor visibly weary. "Hey, Rosalina. Thanks for having me over."

Rosalina led him into the living room, where soft lighting and cozy furniture created a relaxing atmosphere. "You look like you've had a rough day. Do you want to talk about it?" she asked, her tone gentle but laced with curiosity.

Taehyung shook his head, forcing a small smile. "Not tonight. I just need to unwind. If it's okay with you, I'd rather not delve into details."

Rosalina nodded, understanding his need for privacy. "Alright, let's just focus on helping you relax. How about we start with some music and a drink? I'll get us something to sip on."

As she went to the kitchen, Taehyung took a seat on the couch, letting out a long, tired breath. Rosalina soon returned with two glasses of wine and set them down on the coffee table. She settled next to Taehyung, her presence calming.

They clinked their glasses together, the sound of their laughter mingling with the soft strains of music playing in the background. Rosalina leaned closer, her hand gently brushing against Taehyung's. "You know, I'm here for you. If you need anything tonight, just let me know."

Taehyung glanced at her, appreciating her offer but knowing that he didn't want to burden her with his issues. "Thanks, Rosalina. I just need to enjoy the moment and take my mind off things."

Rosalina smiled, her eyes reflecting both warmth and a hint of playfulness. "Well, if that's what you need, I'm more than happy to help. Let's just focus on having a good time together."

She moved closer, her hand resting on Taehyung's knee. "How about we start with a little more than just drinks and music?" she suggested softly, her voice a soothing murmur.

Taehyung met her gaze, feeling a mix of relief and anticipation. "I'd like that. I really need to take my mind off everything."

Rosalina's touch was gentle as she leaned in, her lips brushing against his in a tender, affectionate kiss. Taehyung responded, his mind momentarily escaping the complexities of his emotions. They continued to kiss, the connection between them both comforting and distracting.

As their kiss deepened, Rosalina knew the power of physical comfort in moments of emotional turmoil, and she was ready to offer him the release he needed.
