FALLING FOR YOU | Renhyuck

Chapter 13:

The days following the confrontation with Jeno were tense. Renjun and Haechan had decided to lay low for a while, giving Jeno some space and time to process his emotions. Despite the drama, their relationship grew stronger as they found solace in each other’s company.

One evening, Haechan invited Renjun to his home for a quiet dinner. Haechan’s mansion was a stark contrast to the modest surroundings Renjun was accustomed to. The opulent surroundings were both overwhelming and comforting, a place where Haechan seemed at ease, and Renjun found a strange sense of security.

As they settled into a cozy corner of the grand dining room, the atmosphere was intimate, with only the soft glow of candles illuminating the space. Haechan had taken special care to prepare a homemade dinner, a rare gesture that spoke volumes about his feelings.

“So,” Renjun began, trying to lighten the mood, “how do you manage to cook in this huge kitchen? It looks like it could fit an entire restaurant.”

Haechan chuckled, his eyes twinkling with amusement. “I mostly just order takeout. But tonight, I wanted to do something special for us.”

Renjun smiled, touched by the effort. They enjoyed their meal in comfortable silence, the delicious food adding to the warmth of the evening. As they finished, Haechan suggested they take a stroll in the garden.

The garden was a lush, expansive space with carefully manicured hedges and blooming flowers. The cool evening air was refreshing, and the stars above added a touch of magic to the night. They walked side by side, their hands occasionally brushing against each other.

Haechan paused by a small fountain, its gentle burbling creating a soothing backdrop. He turned to Renjun, his expression contemplative. “Renjun, I know things have been a bit intense lately. I just want you to know that I’m here for you, no matter what.”

Renjun looked at Haechan, his heart fluttering. “I appreciate that. It’s been overwhelming, but having you by my side makes everything feel a little easier.”

Haechan’s gaze softened, and he took Renjun’s hand in his. “I want us to be honest with each other. If there’s anything you’re feeling or struggling with, I want you to tell me.”

Renjun hesitated, his emotions a tangled mess. “I’ve been thinking a lot about what happened with Jeno. It’s hard to see him like this, especially since he’s been my friend for so long. But I also can’t ignore how I feel about you.”

Haechan squeezed Renjun’s hand gently. “Jeno’s feelings are complicated, but I don’t want that to overshadow what we have. I care about you deeply, and I want us to focus on building something real together.”

Renjun nodded, his eyes meeting Haechan’s with a mixture of vulnerability and resolve. “I want that too. I know we’ve faced a lot already, but I believe in us. I just hope Jeno can find his own path, too.”

They continued walking, their hands still intertwined. The night air was filled with the scent of blooming flowers, and the gentle sounds of the garden created a serene atmosphere. Renjun felt a sense of calm, knowing that Haechan was committed to their relationship.

As they approached a secluded bench under a canopy of twinkling fairy lights, Haechan stopped and turned to face Renjun. “There’s something I’ve been wanting to do, but I didn’t want to push you too soon.”

Renjun’s heart skipped a beat, his curiosity piqued. “What is it?”

Haechan’s expression was tender, his eyes locking onto Renjun’s. “I want to kiss you again, but this time, I want it to be a promise—a promise of my commitment to you and to our future.”

Renjun’s breath caught in his throat, his emotions surging. He nodded, feeling a mixture of anticipation and joy. “I’d like that.”

Haechan stepped closer, his fingers gently cupping Renjun’s face. The warmth of his touch was both comforting and electrifying. He leaned in slowly, giving Renjun a moment to pull away if he wished. But Renjun stayed put, his eyes fluttering shut as he leaned into the kiss.

When their lips finally met, it was soft and lingering, filled with the depth of their shared feelings. The kiss was a gentle promise, a reaffirmation of their love and commitment to each other. Haechan’s lips moved against Renjun’s with a tenderness that spoke volumes, and Renjun responded with equal affection.

As they parted, Haechan rested his forehead against Renjun’s, their breaths mingling. “This is just the beginning,” Haechan whispered. “I’m looking forward to everything we’ll share together.”

Renjun’s heart soared with happiness. “Me too. I’m glad we’re doing this together.”

They sat together on the bench, holding each other close, savoring the moment and the promise of their future. The night was filled with the warmth of their connection, a beacon of hope and love amidst the challenges they faced.

As they gazed up at the starry sky, Renjun knew that no matter what obstacles lay ahead, he and Haechan would face them together, their love growing stronger with each passing day.
