As the door clicked shut behind them, Taehyung and Y/N walked into their cozy home, the evening's air still lingering in the warmth of the living room. Y/N slipped off her shoes, glancing over at him with a soft smile, her cheeks still a little flushed from their time outside. Taehyung, who had been quiet for a while, couldn't help but notice the way her eyes sparkled, even in the dim light of their living room.

"You hungry?" Y/N asked, her voice quieter than usual, almost shy, as she turned to head toward the kitchen.

Taehyung followed her, his presence as steady as always, but there was a softness in the air tonight-something different. Maybe it was the way they had started to open up to each other more. Maybe it was just the way the evening felt.

Y/N opened the kitchen door, but before she could take another step, Taehyung was right behind her. He slid his hands onto her shoulders, gently turning her to face him.

"Let me help," Taehyung said, his voice a little hushed.

Y/N smiled, but there was a nervous energy in her that she couldn't shake. "You don't have to. I'm just getting something light."

But Taehyung wasn't listening. He reached up, brushing a stray lock of hair away from her face, his fingers lingering near her cheek. Her heart fluttered under his touch.

Before she could even think about moving away, Taehyung leaned in, his lips brushing lightly against hers. It was tender, soft-a moment of quiet intimacy that felt both natural and new at the same time. Y/N's breath caught in her throat, and she froze for a second, her cheeks growing warmer.

Taehyung pulled back just enough to look at her, his eyes filled with gentle amusement. "You're blushing," he teased softly.

Y/N, too shy to respond, looked down at the floor, a smile tugging at her lips. "I... I didn't expect that."

He chuckled and took her hand in his, leading her toward the counter. "Expect more," he whispered, his thumb gently tracing circles on the back of her hand. "I'm not going anywhere."

Her heart melted at his words, the shy smile never leaving her face as she felt the connection between them deepen with every passing second.

The bathroom door clicked shut softly behind Y/N, and she stood there for a moment, leaning against the cool tiles. Her heart was racing, but she couldn't quite figure out why. It was as if every little thing today had made her feel... shy. Unnecessarily shy. The kiss in the kitchen, the way Taehyung looked at her-it all made her cheeks burn and her thoughts race. She ran her hands through her hair, letting out a deep breath.

Why am I like this today? she wondered, trying to calm herself.

Meanwhile, Taehyung lay on the bed, his back propped up against the pillows, a book in hand. His eyes moved over the pages, but his thoughts were elsewhere. He could hear the soft rustle of Y/N moving around in the bathroom, and he smiled to himself. There was something endearing about the way she took her time, as if she were trying to hide something.

He marked his page, setting the book down on the nightstand. His curiosity was piqued. Y/N had been acting differently since they came back home-shyer, quieter, and more distant. He wondered if something was on her mind, or if he had done something to make her feel that way.

Sitting up, he swung his legs over the side of the bed and stood, walking toward the bathroom. His hand rested on the door frame, and he leaned in just slightly, watching her.
