In Time | HyungWonho

Chapter 9

His heartbeat goes from normal to super-fast and his hands begin to sweat. Hoseoks lips are soft and feel unexpectedly great against his. He feels his cheeks turning in a red color and he starts feeling weird. His stomach begins to twist and turn, like a rollercoaster driving in him. What is this weird feeling?

The older boy slowly puts his hands on Hyungwon's cheeks and leans a bit closer to deepen the kiss.

Hyungwon on the other hand is way to shock from this situation that he does nothing, but just stand there and let Hoseok do.

The woman gives some weird stares to the boys before she gets in her car and drives away, but luckily doesn't notice it was Hoseok.

Even a few seconds after the woman is gone, Hoseok doesn't break the kiss.

His mind is full of the thought how amazing it feels kissing the younger boy, even if he doesn't do anything but standing there.

When Hoseok finally pulls away Hyungwon's eyes are still widened in shock. The older boy looks at him, his expression changing from happy to guilty in just milliseconds.

"I-I am s-sorry." Hoseok whispers, guilt could be heard in his voice. "But I didn't know anything else I c-could do... It was a bad idea. But I-I can't lose my j-job." Hoseok stutters, his mind full of regret and he looks on the ground. He feels embarrassed putting Hyungwon in such a situation, risking breaking their new friendship.

"Please forgive me." Hoseoks voice is just a whisper.

But Hyungwon doesn't answer anything and just gets into the car. He sits down, his hands are still shaking, and he doesn't know what to do with the feels that rush through his body. He somehow liked the kiss. Hoseoks lips felt great and somehow it made him feel different. But why did he enjoy it? What is this weird feeling. It can't be that he likes Hoseok right? He had a girlfriend before and he was never attracted to any boy. It didn't make sense in Hyungwon's mind.

Lost in his thoughts he doesn't notice Hoseok getting in the car, driving home with tears in his eyes. The only thing he has on his mind is regret. Regret with pictures of the kiss. It felt great kissing Hyungwon and he would do it again if he could, but it seems like he hurt the other boy a lot.

As they reach his flat again they start getting the groceries inside. Silence fills their walks upstairs.

"You don't need to help me putting the stuff away." Hoseok says with a weak voice. Hyungwon just nods and gets in Hoseok room, where he falls on Hoseoks bed. He finally had noticed the other boys hurt expression and he feels guilty.

"I should explain this right?" He whispers to himself. "He misunderstands me... but what should I tell him? Can I tell him what I feel?"

A few single tears leave his eyes. He didn't want Hoseok to feel bad. He knows he just did it to save his job and that there weren't any feels behind it right? He shouldn't make such a big thing out of it. This was a kiss with no meaning, so their friendship shouldn't be affected by this.

But was is this weird feeling in his chest, that comes there, as soon as Hyungwon thinks of the kiss? Did he enjoy it? Did he like Hoseoks plump and soft lips on his own? Did he enjoy feeling Hoseoks slender fingers on his cheeks? Did he enjoy the rush of energy that got through his body? Everything can be answered with yes, and that's what scares Hyungwon. This can't be right.

After a few deep breathes Hyungwon gets up from the bed and goes back to the kitchen, where he finds Hoseok sitting on a chair his knees by his chest and his arms curled around them. His body is shaking. Slowly Hyungwon gets to him and put his hand on the older boys' shoulder. Hoseok slightly jumps and turns his head to Hyungwon. His eyes are red, and his face is swollen. He cried.
