"Okay, that should be good." Taehyung grins, washing his hands at the sink, looking at Jeongguk who had a clean, little bandage on his lip and was holding an ice pack on his face.
"Thankyou." Jeongguk breathes.
"Wait, do you want to check out your stomach?" Taehyung asks.
"Umm... I think I should be fine, thank you." Jeongguk stutters, he wasn't confident in showing Taehyung his stomach. (yet)
"You sure?" Taehyung tries again, looking down at Jeongguk stomach.
"Yeah." Jeongguk answers straight away, hopping off the counter standing on his two feet again.
"Need a ride home?" Taehyung asks.
"Um, it's okay i'll just walk home. You've helped me enough."
"Please, I insist."
"I--"
"Just let me drive you home Jeongguk!" Taehyung raises his voice.
Jeongguk taken aback by Taehyung's sudden outburst, gives in immediately.

So back they were, in Taehyung's car, on the way back to Jeongguk's house. Jeongguk had been staring at Taehyung for the last 2 minutes, I guess he couldn't help himself.
"See something you like?" Taehyung starts.
Jeongguk cheeks grow pink as he looks away, eyes widened.
Taehyung smiles to himself because Jeongguk was so cute.
"So where's your house?" Taehyung asks, not bothering to ask before.
"Take a left here." Jeongguk responds, Taehyung following his directions correctly.
"Okay, now take two rights."
Taehyung eventually drives into Jeongguk's street, following Jeongguk's directions.
"What number is your house?" Taehyung asks, slowly cruising along Jeongguk's quiet street.
"18" Jeongguk replies as Taehyung stops outside Jeongguk's house, parking the car on the side of the road.
"Thanks for everything." Jeongguk thanks once again, smiling, picking up his bag that was in between his legs.
"Yeah no problem. See you tomorrow, yeah?" Taehyung grins, resting his arm around Jeongguk's car seat.
"Yeah." Jeongguk replies, opening his car door and getting out of the car, swinging his backpack on his back.
He turns around to look at Taehyung in the car. The window was down and he was still looking at Jeongguk with his arm around the passenger seat.
"Okay bye, cutie." Taehyung finishes, before looking ahead at the road driving off.
Jeongguk stands there speechless still processing what Taehyung just called him, narrowing his eyebrows, and then turning around and walking to his front door.
He turns the inserts his house key that he actually remembered, unlocking the door and walking into the house.
The first thing he sees when he walks into the door is his mother, standing there, waiting for him with her arms crossed and her foot tapping impatiently.
"Who was that? And why are you back so late?" She says sternly.
"Oh, that was just..."
"Just what? Speak up!" She shouts.
"It was just my boss, okay mum?" Jeongguk tells, walking past his mum, heading for the stairs, "I'm going to bed." Jeongguk announces.
"Where do you think you're going, huh? You're not going anywhere until you finish off your homework." She argues, grabbing his arm to stop him from going any further up the stairs.
"Oh come on mum, i'm tired." Jeongguk complains.
"Wait a minute, what happened to your lip?" Jeongguk's mother grabs Jeongguk's chin, inspecting his lip.
"Its nothing. since when do you care?" Jeongguk sighs.
"Since your my son." She shoots.
Jeongguk sighs, walking up the stairs, after snatching his arm out of her hold.
"Hey you come back here right now!" she yells, Jeongguk not flinching, walking up the stairs and into his room, slamming the door behind him.
