⚠️Warning: Proceed with caution. ⚠️

As the silence settled between them, Yoongi could feel his heart racing, the air thick with unspoken tension. He had never been this close to someone who made him feel so seen, and it was intoxicating. Mr. Ji's presence was magnetic, and the way he looked at Yoongi made him feel like he was the only person in the world.

"Yoongi," Mr. Ji said softly, breaking the spell of silence. "You really are something special."

Yoongi's breath hitched slightly at the intensity in Mr. Ji's gaze. "I... I don't know about that," he stammered, feeling a mix of flattery and nervousness.

"Yes, you are," Mr. Ji insisted, leaning in a little closer. "You have this incredible light about you. I can't help but be drawn to it."

Feeling his cheeks heat up, Yoongi looked down, trying to compose himself. "I'm just... trying to figure things out," he mumbled, unsure of how to respond to the compliment.

Mr. Ji shifted ever so slightly, closing the gap between them. "And I want to help you with that," he said, his voice dropping to a husky whisper. "But I also want you to know that I'm here for more than just guidance. I want to be close to you, Yoongi."

The sincerity in Mr. Ji's words sent a thrill through Yoongi, and he felt his heart race even faster. "Close? Like... friends?" he asked, trying to keep the conversation light despite the heaviness of the moment.

"Friends, yes," Mr. Ji replied, his gaze locked onto Yoongi's, unwavering. "But I think there's something more here. Something worth exploring."

Before Yoongi could process what was happening, Mr. Ji leaned in even closer, his face just inches away. Yoongi could feel the warmth radiating from him, the intoxicating scent of his cologne enveloping him. It was both thrilling and terrifying, and Yoongi's pulse quickened as he realized where this was heading.

"Mr. Ji, I—" Yoongi started, but the words got caught in his throat as Mr. Ji reached out, gently cupping Yoongi's face with his hand. The touch was electric, sending a wave of warmth through Yoongi's body.

"Just let me," Mr. Ji murmured, his voice low and smooth. "I promise I won't pressure you. But I can't deny that I want to be closer to you."

And with that, Mr. Ji leaned in, his lips brushing against Yoongi's in a soft, tentative kiss. Yoongi's heart raced as he felt the warmth of Mr. Ji's mouth against his. A rush of emotions flooded through him—excitement, fear, confusion—all wrapped up in the moment.

For a fleeting second, Yoongi hesitated, a mix of uncertainty and desire swirling within him. But as he felt Mr. Ji's gentle hand on his cheek, the world around them faded away, leaving only the two of them in that intimate bubble. He leaned in, responding to the kiss, and the warmth of Mr. Ji enveloped him completely.

The kiss deepened, becoming more passionate as Yoongi found himself melting into the moment. It was unlike anything he had ever experienced—an exhilarating mix of vulnerability and connection. When they finally pulled back, both breathless, Yoongi's mind raced.

"Mr. Ji, I... I didn't expect that," he stammered, his cheeks flushed.

"I know," Mr. Ji replied, a soft smile playing on his lips. "I didn't want to push you, but I couldn't help myself. You're just so captivating."

Yoongi felt the weight of those words, a mix of warmth and uncertainty swirling in his chest. "But what does this mean?" he asked, searching for clarity.

Mr. Ji looked into his eyes, his expression sincere. "It means that I want to be here for you, not just as a teacher or a friend, but as someone who cares deeply about you. I want to explore this connection, if you're open to it."
