Swings and Stars (BoyxBoy: BTS Fanfiction) [Completed]

Have I Ever Told You how Beautiful You Are?

"Argh!" Taehyung squealed feeling the water rain down on to his clothes. "Go, go, go!" He pointed towards the middle of the park where stood an archway with a hanging roof. The two sprinted for shelter, feeling the rain soak through their clothes as they ran. Giggling mischievously, Hoseok pulled Taehyung back, using Taehyung's arm to launch himself in front of him. Taehyung laughed, pushing Hoseok's head away to make his way forward once more. With Taehyung's push, Hoseok's foot landed directly into a puddle, splashing up his side. He huffed out in mock offence at Taehyung. Taehyung smiled proudly, running away giggling.

Hoseok chased Taehyung, his rain-soaked hands landing directly on Taehyung's face. Taehyung groaned out a small "ew" before flailing the water off with his hands onto Hoseok. Hoseok squinted his eyes closed as he felt the splashes of water land on his skin. Taehyung giggled at Hoseok's scrunched up expression. Hoseok poked his tongue in his cheek amused before he felt Taehyung's eyes catch on his hair beginning to soak through completely, a drip rolling down his face from the strand. Hoseok looked up at the strip of hair on his forehead, feeling the drop move further down his cheek. He laughed, watching Taehyung's eyes follow the droplet's path down his cheek. Hoseok wiped his hands on his trousers before gently attaching his hand to Taehyung's and dragging him under the archway.

The two panted as they stood under the archway, listening to the sound of the rain patter onto the ground.

The two exchanged a glance, chuckling in each other's presence, their entire bodies drenched; clothes, skin... hair.

Taehyung's eyes caught on the collected strands again, all leading a stream of droplets down Hoseok's face. Hoseok stared at Taehyung, his head tilted at Taehyung's concentrated expression.

"Tae?"

Taehyung snapped his eyes back to Hoseok's, blushing. "Oh, haha, sorry." He grinned, staring back down at his fingers, growing cold. He hunched his back slightly, his damp cold clothes beginning to leave an unsettling feeling on his skin. Taehyung wiped his hands on his trousers, which remained moderately dry. But even then, it didn't stop the shiver that shook his body.

Hoseok didn't hesitate before unzipping his his jacket. Taehyung looked over at the other confused. Hoseok smiled at him sheepishly, pulling the jacket off of his shoulders.

"Hoseok?" Taehyung questioned. Hoseok turned to Taehyung, holding the jacket in front of him. Taehyung eyed the jacket with a raised eyebrow before feeling his breath hitch in his throat as Hoseok placed it over his shoulders.

"It's a little damp on the outside, but the inside's pretty warm." Hoseok explained, positioning the jacket over the boy so that it was secure. "It's not much, but..." Hoseok wrapped the jacket over Taehyung's shoulders to his front, bringing up Taehyung's hand so that he could grip both halves tightly like a blanket.

Taehyung stared at Hoseok, his body frozen as Hoseok put the jacket over him. Hoseok pulled back, eyes flickering up timidly with a small smile.

"Aren't you cold?" Taehyung asked, noticing that Hoseok was only wearing a shirt.

Hoseok giggled, leaning back against the archway. "I'll live." He countered.

"We can share." Taehyung shuffled closer to Hoseok, moving half of the jacket around Hoseok. Hoseok eyed Taehyung through the corner of his eyes, biting back a smile. Hoseok's arm pressed against Taehyung's damp one, their shoulders squeezed against each other so that the warmth of the fluffy material spread around the two. "Your arm's really warm." Taehyung remarked. Hoseok huffed out a small laugh at the comment.

"Thanks...?" He giggled. Taehyung gulped as he felt Hoseok's arm move against his. "Yours is really cold."

"You can be my microwave."

"What?"

"You know, like, microwaves heat thing up... And..." Taehyung's words faded out towards the end as he began losing track of what he was saying. "...never mind." Hoseok felt the bubbling urge in his throat to burst out in laughter begin to grow stronger and stronger.

Taehyung stared at Hoseok with a pout. But that's when his eyes caught it again. That piece of wet hair dangling across his eyes. Hoseok smiled at Taehyung, which Taehyung quickly responded to with another smile, but didn't turn his attention away from the item of hair. He couldn't.

Taehyung didn't even acknowledge his own movements before his hand reached mid-air, fingers moving forward and pushing the wet strands of hair from Hoseok's eyes. Hoseok's eyes glued to the movement, feeling Taehyung's cold fingers move over his forehead, only they didn't feel so cold to Hoseok; they felt as if they were burning. Hoseok gulped, flickering his eyes back to Taehyung. Taehyung blinked back at Hoseok, his fingers limply smoothing down his cheek. Hoseok tried to stifle the words that he felt beginning to spill from his mouth.

"Taehyung," he breathed, trying to stifle the words that he felt beginning to spill from his mouth. "Have I ever told you how beautiful you are?"

Taehyung's fingers froze, scold against Hoseok's skin. He felt his skin heat up, his cheeks flushing and gaze unmoving as he stared at Hoseok. Did Hoseok... Just call him beautiful?

Hoseok's hand moved up to his cheek holding Taehyung's fingers in his. Taehyung's eyes broke away from Hoseok, flickering nervously as his head fell. Hoseok turned to Taehyung, noticing his hair falling over his eyes. Hoseok giggled, tilting Taehyung's chin up, the material of the jacket slipping down his shoulder. "Taehyung..." Taehyung gulped, his eyes flickering between Hoseok's eyes and his lips. Taehyung felt his heart thudding, his breathing inconstant as his eyes fell closed slowly, his body too stiff to even move an inch.

That's when it happened. Hoseok pressed his lips to Taehyung's.

Taehyung's breath hitched in his throat as he felt his eyes widen in shock. Hoseok's eyes squeezed closed tightly as he kissed Taehyung, savouring the touch of his lips against Taehyung's; relishing in the feeling of Taehyung's lips, their smooth touch, their warmth.

The way Hoseok's lips moved against Taehyung's was almost shy, the way Taehyung didn't respond to the kiss immediately, taking time to process what was happening. The only sound that surrounded them was the clattering rain, as they shared this one moment that felt like years.

Hoseok blushed pulling back, the jacket falling off of him entirely as he spaced himself from the other boy. Taehyung blinked, watching as Hoseok's head fell, body frozen, his eyes focused to his hands, playing with his fingers nervously. "S-Sorry..." He apologised quickly, voice trembling. "I'm really sorry... It's just... You, you're so beautiful a-and I..."

Taehyung cut Hoseok off, his hand moving up to tilt Hoseok's face toward his before diving forward, and landing a chaste kiss on his lips. Hoseok's eyes fell closed, body completely frozen, butterflies swarming in his stomach. Taehyung's eyes were shut tight as he pressed his lips to Hoseok's, his body stiffening in excitement and nerves.

As Taehyung pulled back, Hoseok's eyes slowly opened, his gaze stuck on Taehyung as he reached up to his own lips.

Did that really just happen?

Taehyung smiled up shyly at Hoseok from his side. Hoseok grinned back like a small child. "Let's go-"

Hoseok leaned closer, pecking Taehyung on the lips once more.

Taehyung giggled as their lips pressed together, lacing their hands together. Hoseok smiled as they broke away, fingers interlocked, sharing Hoseok's jacket over both their heads as they ran through the rain.
