Best Thing I Never Had (TaePyo) COMPLETE

Chapter Two - I'm...

-Taeil POV-
The next morning, I woke up in the same strangers bed. His arms were wrapped around me and we were both in our birthday suits. Guess I know what happened last night then...
"I need to get to my house...Jihoon will be waiting..." Muttering to myself, I quickly got dressed and wrote Namjoon a little note before leaving.
After about an hour of walking, I arrived back at my house. I felt too weak to run.
"YAH! WERE TWO HOURS LATE!!!" A familiar voice was squealing at me from behind.
"Jihoon...just...let me have a shower and get changed. I don't feel so good." I looked up at the radiant man with a guilty smile.
"Okay...hmm..." Walking into my house, he grabbed my hand. "Taeil...do you need some help getting undressed? You don't look so good."
"U-Uh-Uh..." Since he offered, I guess I couldn't say no. Although...there was one thing that Jihoon didn't know. A vital thing. I was gay. I'd known Jihoon for the best part of my life now and I'd never worked up the courage to tell him. I was too scared of what he might think. When Yukwon and Minhyuk came out as a couple he didn't seem too happy about that. Then Jiho and Kyung came out as a couple...he seemed even more off with that...Then...Jaehyo came out as bisexual and he flipped off. I remember him pulling me to the side and saying to me that he was happy I was straight. He said he felt a lot closer to me now because he was the only one he could talk to about his interests. I never ever told him about mine, obviously, because I'm gay. He tried setting me up a few times too, but they all ended badly. I was never interested. Maybe I should tell him? Maybe...now was the right time?
"Taeil. What's wrong? You look even more pale now." Touching my head to feel for a temperature; Jihoon seemed worried for his little friend.
"There's something...I need to tell you, Jihoon. It's really important too. I don't want to loose our friendship over this too...Promise you'll still be my friend." Beginning to cry, I looked up at the tall man standing before me.
"I...I promise? Taeil, tell me already. What's the matter? Is this what's making you sick? You need to stop dwelling on things so much."
"I...I..I've been meaning to tell you a while Jihoon...and I can't wait any longer...I was just always scared you'd hate me because of it. I mean...I know you don't care about everyone else anymore...but you know...Its different..."
Getting impatient, he wrapped his long arms around me. "Just tell me, Taeil."
Feeling my face begin to change to a bright shade of crimson, I whispered back to him. "I'm...scared of spiders, Jihoon."
