Pick Up Lines (Taejoon)

21

It was a new day and Namjoon was enjoying it. He breathed deeply. He had to go to work but it was still early. He had a horrible time sleeping, his dreams haunted by visions of Jin and Taehyung.

Namjoon felt as if he was losing his mind. It was becoming difficult to work with Taehyung. He was beginning to enjoy the attention – worse, he was beginning to seek it out. He was still failing on his own end. He wanted to seduce Taehyung, not the reverse. Yet here he was, in the middle of a park, sipping a smoothie he had gotten from a corner convenience store and letting his mind wander to thoughts of the man.

He was still interested in Jin as well. The older had begun trying to hang out with him during his breaks up at work. They still hadn't tried to go out on a proper date since the whole incident with having to work late.

Namjoon had decided he was going to try and make more moves on Taehyung. Though, to be honest, he had no clue why he was even doing it anymore. At first, it had been to teach a lesson to the younger man but now Namjoon was wondering if it was because of his own curiosity.

Namjoon looked up at the sun coming over the trees, the golden rays spilling onto the grass and concrete of the walkways in the park. The weather was perfect, not too hot and not too cold with a low amount of humidity. It truly was a perfect morning to be sitting on a park bench holding a cold, fruit smoothie. However, his time was running short and he still needed to get to work. Sighing, he picked himself up and walked out of the park, finding the nearest bus stop and waiting.

Namjoon didn't have to wait long. An old and slightly rickety blue bus pulled up a few minutes after he had sat down at the bus stop. The doors opened and he climbed on board, seemingly the only person at the stop. He paid the driver before taking a seat. A few minutes later, he was in the business district, hopping off the bus and rushing to his building. If he wasn't careful, he would be late.

Lucky, Namjoon made it to his workplace just in time. He was rushing through the offices, on his way to his cubicle when a mop of ash colored hair caught his eye. He saw Jin and Taehyung together, obviously laughing about something. His pace slowed as he observed the two. They looked oddly natural together, as if they effortlessly were so beautiful, both in their own way. Namjoon wished he could go over and join their conversation, however, he had his own work to attend to.

It seemed as if he would have to try harder to get both men to pay attention to him for fear of losing them to each other.

He texted good morning to Jin, waiting for a response and putting his cell by his computer on his desk. He turned his attention back to the screen in front of him, booting his computer up and running his eyes over all the paperwork and numbers he had to run for the morning. He sighed at the stack of papers on his desk but set about organizing them the best he could to do his work efficiently.

"Hey, hyung,"

A voice in his ear frightened him. Namjoon jumped out of his chair, turning and running face to face into Kim Taehyung. Their faces bumped together before Namjoon could even reel himself back into some kind of still position. He felt lips against his own, soft and brushing as if it was a teasing action. But Namjoon knew it wasn't. He knew it was his fault because he had practically fallen into the other.

Of course he ran into Taehyung.

But wasn't that what Namjoon wanted?

Namjoon tried to control the blush rapidly spreading on his cheeks. He could see Taehyung's eyes trailing the blooms of pink, an unreadable look in his eyes. He was standing very close – too close to Namjoon. He could feel the younger's body heat and smell the aroma of coffee coming off of him mixed with some kind of mild aftershave.

"How are you, Namjoon?" Taehyung had spared all honorifics and didn't seem as if he would be moving back any time soon. Taehyung was obviously brushing over what had just happened, although from the spark in his brown eyes, it was easy to tell he had enjoyed it.

"Fine," Namjoon gulped, "Y-you?"

Taehyung chuckled, licking his lips slowly before replying, "Better now that I've seen you." He dipped his head before letting his eyes trail up into Namjoon's, "And gotten my good morning kiss."

Namjoon's face flushed and even darker shade, his hands clenching into fists. As close as the younger man was standing, Namjoon could swear he could hear his heart beat. It was practically jumping out of his chest. Taehyung looked as if he was about to say something but the ringing of Namjoon's cell interrupted him. Namjoon spared a glance, seeing the caller I.D. as that of Jin's. He didn't miss the way Taehyung found as he, too, looked at the caller I.D.

"You better answer the phone, huh?" Taehyung took a step back, dipping his head once more in something like a nod before trotting off back to his own cubicle. Namjoon let out a breath he hadn't known he was even holding but snatched the phone up before the ringing ended.

Jin's voice came out loudly and clearly even though he was surrounded by people a few rooms down the hall, "Hey Namjoon, have I got a fun night planned for us – if you can make it."
