Afternoon
The chair creaks as Jeongguk leans back on it. He looks down at the ring Taehyung gave him, flipping it in between his fingers, thinking about yesterday. There was no way Jeongguk could hold as his emotions and feelings inside, he had to express them. He decided now is the time to tell Taehyung what he felt for him.
He smiles, looking at the shiny ring, the fresh memories making him sentimental. He hoped Taehyung would feel the same, and especially now that no one was in the way.
He shoots up from his chair with confidence. I'm going to ask him to come home with me after work and confess my feelings! Holding the ring in his clenched fist.
He grabs his backpack, rushing out the door, trotting swiftly down the stairs making his way to the ice cream parlour.
------------
He pushes through the glass doors, revealing the parlour. He could see Taehyung sitting on a stool behind the counter, scrolling through his phone, his head down, his soft hair hiding his eyes.
He takes a breath with confidence, walking straight to Taehyung, standing in front of the counter, "Hi Hyung." He greets, holding the two straps of his backpack.
Taehyung looks up from his phone to look at the cute boy behind the counter standing there, and looking his way.
"Hi Gukie." Taehyung smiles, showing his pearly white teeth. "How are you?" He switches his phone off and puts it back in his pocket.
"I'm fine, you?" Jeongguk replies.
"I'm good." Taehyung nods.
"Um...I was just wondering...would you want to come back with me after work?" Jeongguk questions.
Taehyung looks a bit confused, opening his mouth to say something.
"Like, to meet my mum and see my house..." Jeongguk questions, trailing off.
"Uh... okay. Yeah. I will." Taehyung smiles, nodding, standing up from the stool.
Jeongguk turns around, happy as ever, clenching his fist in accomplishment.
-----
Jeongguk packs his backpack after a day of work, zipping it up and shutting his locker, he swings the bag over his shoulder, standing up straight and looking to the door way.
Taehyung was leaning by it, with his bag on and casual clothes on too, "You ready?" He smirks, looking at Jeongguk.
Jeongguk, slightly taken by surprise, nods along, Taehyung turning around and walking out, Jeongguk following closely behind.
"So, are we taking my car?" Taehyung questions, walking beside Jeongguk, the both of them walking out of the parlour.
"Yeah, might aswell." Jeongguk replies, turning to Taehyung's parked car in the distance.
Taehyung nods, following after Jeongguk.
----
Jeongguk lightly chuckles with Taehyung by his side, standing in front of the front door of Jeongguk's house, lifting his hand up to knock on the door.
After a one minute, the door swings open to reveal Jeongguk's mother standing behind it, not looking too happy. But she never did.
She looks at Jeongguk first, and then to his right, looking up and down at Taehyung, never recalling a time where she had seen him before.
"Mum, can we come in?' Jeongguk questions, raising his eyebrow.
She doesn't respond, eyeing out Taehyung.
