"here i'll help you.", taehyung says as he comes behind me, his arms coming to each side of me and grabbing the knife that was once in my hands. i gasp lightly but stand frozen. i was uncomfortable, although i couldn't ignore the small little butterflies i felt when our hands touched. we look like a couple cooking dinner together, the thought makes me blush.

i notice how he seems skillful chopping the meat, a bit aggressive but skillfully into perfect squares. maybe he's a murder. no that's ridiculous. he must cook often. yea, that sounds more reasonable. even though i do get an uneasy feeling around him, that just must be because i'm anti-social, i'm just not used to him that's all. he doesn't look like the killing type. what a silly thought.

i feel the warmth from behind me suddenly vanish. I frown and turn around to see him putting the chopped pieces of meat into the pan above the stove along with the other chopped ingredients. i watch his back as he pours sauce into the pan, and how you can see his muscles flexing behind the simple white v neck shirt he's wearing. [a/n: see what i did there?hehe 'v' neck😆 i'm so lame lol ok back to the story]

he must notice my gaze on him because he turns around and meets my eyes, smiling that rectangular smile that always makes my heart flutter like a love sick hormonal teenage girl.

"let's go watch some tv while it's cooking?," taehyung suggests still smiling.

"sure!," i answer almost immediately making me mentally slap myself for sounding so eager. he smiles and we both walk to the living room and to the couch while i put on netflix. netflix & chill? ;) ew! get your head out of the gutter joy! i mentally slap myself again for thinking such inappropriate ridiculous things.

i must've spaced out because next thing i know we're watching american horror story. ooo yes! i love this show!! he has good taste in shows i'll give him that.

"you like ahs?!" i ask him excitingly smiling like a weirdo. he turns to face me and smirks, replying with a simple,

"i like everything that has to do with murder and mystery."

"ME TOO!!!!" i answer happily, he's like me!! he smiles and turns back to face the screen. i scoot closer to him but leave a small space so it's not weird. he notices the proximity between us and scoots even closer. well maybe you shouldn't have done that. i stiffen when there's only about half an inch of distance between us.

i try to ignore it and continue watching the show, which is working a bit until i feel him lean closer and whisper in my ear, "you smell good joy." i shiver at his hot breathe on my neck. i turn to face him and widen my eyes when our noses touch.

"thanks! i'm going to go check on the food!" i answer while laughing nervously, standing up quickly and walking into the kitchen. leaving a smirking taehyung on the couch watching me walk away.

once inside the kitchen, i smack my cheeks that are a fiery red. i open the pot lid, setting it on the metallic counter and stir the ingredients with a large wooden spoon. how will i face him again?! aigoo so embarrassing!

"need any help?" i hear from behind me, making me turn around quickly.

"oh haha, um yea could you please set the bowls and chopsticks on the table? it's almost ready." i answer laughing nervously. he nods and goes towards the cabinets where the utensils are stored. i turn back to the food on the stove and turn it off, bringing the pots off the stove and to the table one by one. i sit down on the cushioned chair across from taehyung and he follows shortly after grabbing two bottles of cass from the fridge.

we eat in silence, after praying of course, or at least i did, taehyung immediately starting digging right in.

the silence in the air wasn't exactly awkward, it never really is with taehyung, he's comfortable to be around. i feel like i can be myself around him, with some restrictions of course. we both finish eating a bit later. the dinner consisted of simple questions every now and then but mostly silence and taehyung glancing at me every minute which i didn't really question because he is kind of weird but in a way we all are, some more than others but still.

"thank you for dinner park joy. i really enjoyed it.", he says as we stand in front on the door, giving me a small sincere smile. he must not have many friends.

"it was no problem taehyung, i quite enjoy your company.", i say with a small smile. he nods and turns around, opening the door and stepping outside.

i'm about to close the door when it suddenly opens and taehyung comes in giving me a peck on the cheek and hugging me before walking out of the door as quick as he came in. my cheeks flush as i stand there flabbergasted. he kissed me... He. Kissed. Me. he kissed ME! HE KISSED ME!! OMF ASJKALSINSIDHSKBSHSBDJHDHS
