"Hoseok, you promised!"

Taehyung stood at the foot of Hoseoks door step, being given a unapproved look from the other.

"I don't remember promising, I said I would think about it t-taehyung." Taehyungs ears pearked up at the sound of Hoseok stuttering. Cute.

"Come on baby, it will take your mind off things." He persuaded, stepping towards Hoseok who was situated underneath the door frame.

It was silent for a while, it had been a few days since the cafe incident and hoseok couldn't help but become embarrased Hoseok himself infront of Taehyung.

"Okay, I guess you are right." Hoseok smiled lightly, watching as the other boys face lit up excitedly, slightly jumping up and down.

-

"Okay, you read out everything from the list and I'll pick them up." Hoseok spoke as he gripped onto the shopping cart, his body turning around when he didn't hear a response from Taehyung, yet was met with a confused expression scaling his face.

"Ah, I don't have a list. I just pick up what looks appealing to me really." Taehyung raked his fingers through his hair proceeding to walk next to Hoseok.

"You aren't very organised are you?"

"Well you see baby, I don't do this often." Both boys walked in sync through each of the aisles, having not stopped once to pick up food.

"Why not? you need food to survive!" Hoseok gasped slightly.

Taehyung went silent before hoseok bent down to reach something. "Apples! I love apples. good choice princess." Taehyung cheered, stepping behind Hoseok before snaking an arm around his waist.

"Taehyung, w-why do you always do this? we're in public." Hoseok muttered, continuing to walk with much difficulty as the younger was pressed against his back. Taehyung couldn't help but find his stutters extremely adorable and appealing.

"I want you to feel safe, also my baby has a very huggable figure."

"Is that an excuse just so you can touch me?"
Taehyungs eyes widened, losening his grip slightly. "No no hoseok, if you dont want me to then I wont."

Hoseok shut his eyes lightly, "You confuse me, you know that?"

Taehyung released Hoseok from his hold, bringing his hands up to cup his own face before smiling widely. "You can't resist me."

-

"Are we done?" Hoseok peered over into the shopping cart, his eyes wandering over to taehyung who was inspecting each food item.

"324 calories per serving..."

Hoseok snatched the item away from the slim boys hands, placing it back into the basket before furrowing his eyebrows together.

"Why are you counting the calories?" He asked, not missing the look of sudden panic in the other boys usual glistening eyes.

"Doesn't everyone do it?"

Hoseok shrugged his shoulders, not going to admit he himself would do it occasionally.

Taehyung took control over the shopping cart, pushing it towards the till, one hand lightly tugging on Hoseoks own to secure a feeling of safety.

"Thanks for keeping me company baby." He tiredly breathed out, ruffling Hoseoks hair. Hoseok took a big step back before slightly whining, "Don't mess up my hair." His once neat hair was now sticking up in all directions, slightly static.

The younger grinned at the fact Hoseok didn't disaprove of the nickname, bounding to the idea that Hoseok had by now gotten used to them.

"Your hair looks cute like that. Maybe a little too cute."

Hoseoks cheeks dusted pink, bringing a hand up to fix his hair.

"Hey Hoseok, want to come round mine when we get back?"

The two stood silently, before the flustered boy provided a hesitant answer.

"S-Sure."
