Pick Up Lines (Taejoon)

19

Namjoon had been roped into working with Taehyung again. He took some comfort in the fact that it wasn't Friday. Instead it was a Monday night and he had been told if their work was good, he would have the day off Tuesday. he loved the idea of that - he desperately wanted to sleep in for once and it seemed like such an amazing trade off. A few extra hours with Kim Taehyung wasn't going to kill him. It might put a dent in his ego and make him blush or flustered, but he'd be fine.

Once again they had decided on the meeting room they had used before hand. Namjoon felt a bit sad, there was no Jin to bring them delicious food and tell dumb jokes. He sighed a bit somberly as he set his makeshift workstation up.

The two worked for a few hours before the exhaustion settled in. Namjoon was fighting to keep his eyes open properly and he kept having the terrible urge to yawn. Taehyung had surprised him as well. the usually bubbly young man had been almost completely silent for the entire time they had been together. He seemed hyper focused on his work, typing and muttering to himself quietly as he read the notes and data sheets to his side. It was a nice break from the usual extremely energetic Taehyung.

Taehyung yawned, stretching his arms above his head. Namjoon almost cooed at how cute he looked with his hands in fists raised above his head and the way his face scrunched up so adorably.

Namjoon chuckled, "Yeah, being pretty must be tiring."

Taehyung tilted his head, dark eyes connecting with Namjoon's own chocolate brown ones, "You must be exhausted then,"

Namjoon turned away, flustered. He hadn't been expecting that reply.

So much for trying to beat Taehyung at his own game.

"I'm hungry...." Taehyung's voice sounded a bit pouty. Namjoon looked up from his computer screen to see his bottom lip poked out as his face scrunched a bit. He chuckled, shutting his laptop screen and taking in the adorable face of Taehyung. The man's duality was insane. He had mostly carried himself in a way that oozed out sex appeal. His body was enough o shout to everyone he was hot and he knew it.

But there was the other side of Kim Taehyung. Cute, almost cuddly and undeniably adorable. Namjoon almost preferred him this way. His higher voice and pouty lips crying out for attention. It wasn't manly at all but it melted Namjoon's heart in the purest way possible.

"Do you want to go eat? I can finish the rest of this?" Namjoon offered. That pout was truly melting his brain. He couldn't believe he had offered to actually help Taehyung out.

The younger shook his head, the pout disappearing completely, much to Namjoon's dismay, "No, it would take you at least an hour to do all this by yourself - and that would be if you weren't tired. You couldn't get all this done in two hours"

Taehyung was right and Namjoon was aware of that. But they were both hungry and tired.

"Do you want me to go get us some food then?" Another offer Namjoon couldn't believe he was making.

Taehyung eyes lit up a bit as he nodded frantically, "Fooooooood," he giggled. He dug his wallet out of his pocket and handed Namjoon a wad of cash, "That should be enough for both of us as long as you don't go expensive."

Namjoon immediately put the money down on the table, shaking his head, "I can cover it tonight."

Taehyung pouted again, spinning a bit in his chair, "But I want to treat my baby, y'know?"

Namjoon's cheeks heated. He knew he must looked as red as a strawberry, "I'm not your anything." he turned to walk out calling over his shoulder, "I'll be back in a few minutes." he didn't give Taehyung time to reply, he simply started to walk out of the building, relishing the way his legs stretched as he went.
