The next day, the boys all decided that it was the perfect weather to go to the beach. The whole time, Taehyung was unable to keep his eyes off of Hosoek's bare chest. He couldn't wrap his mind around why he was so insecure. All he saw was perfection.
"Tae," Jungkook said, elbowing him in the side, "You're staring,"
Taehyung shrugged and looked to his friend, "I can't help it,"
Jungkook rolled his eyes and sat down in his beach chair, "Are you guys together or something?"
Taehyung thought for a second, not really sure how to reply. Things between him and Hoseok were confusing. One second they would flirt and then the next, he claims he's not ready for a new relationship. He was beginning to get quite fed up with Hoseok's indecisiveness, but he was worth the wait. He knew Hoseok was still fragile from his last relationship and he didn't want to rush into anything.
"I'm not sure. Things are complicated right now. Just last night we kissed for the first time, then when I tried to kiss him again this morning, he pushed me away, saying that he's not ready for a relationship right now,"
Jungkook shook his head and sighed, "You can't wait around for him forever, Tae. You should move on with your life,"
Taehyung shook his head and looked back at Hoseok, who was standing in the water, "No. I think he's coming around. He just needs time to adjust and realize that someone loves and cares for him,"
"Stop being so cheesy, damn," Jungkook laughed and lightly punched his shoulder.
"Ow," Taehyung fake frowned and rubbed his arm, "That hurt, Kookie,"
"You big baby," Jungkook looked back at Hoseok and tilted his head, "He doesn't talk much. Why is that?"
Taehyung shrugged, "I'm not sure. I think he's just shy, but once you get to know him, he just wont shut up," He laughed, "No, I'm just kidding, but you should get to know him. He's really nice,"
Jungkook nodded and leaned his head back against his chair, "I'll try, but right now, I need a nap," He pulled his hat down to cover his eyes and dozed off.
Taehyung rolled his eyes and decided to go talk to Hoseok. He walked up behind him, gently wrapping his arms around his waist, causing Hoseok to jump.
"Tae!" He turned around in his arms and put his hand up to his chest, "Don't scare me like that!"
Taehyung just smiled and kissed his nose, "You're cute when you scared,"
Hoseok blushed and looked away. He was beginning to really appreciate how sweet and patient Taehyung was with him. He knew that it must have been annoying when he couldn't make up his mind about what he wanted, but Taehyung patiently waited. Except for that one time in school when he forced himself on him, but that was in the past, so he had forgiven him.
Hoseok slowly looked back at Taehyung, who was staring at him with a grin plastered on his face, "Tae?"
"Hmm?"
"Why are you so patient for me? Why are you so willing to wait when there are so many other people out there who would accept you right away?"
Taehyung's grin only grew wider, "Because I love you, Hobi!" He let go of Hoseok and pinched his cheeks.

Sorry this chapter is short. Like I said, I have writers block so the next few chapters will just be fillers, or I might just skip the trip entirely. What do you think?
Anyways, I'm so excited to finish this book. I have the perfect ending and honestly it's going to be great.
Hope you enjoyed! Love you guys! ❤️
