never had jaehyun regretted moving out from their apartment right after that night,that devastating truth or dare.
he took a sip of his beer,indulging himself in the feeling of infatuating liquid rushing down his throat.
memories kept emerging in relay from the deepest part of his heart. it has been a while since taeyong last appeared in his mind, whether positive or negative things.
second year in college,jaehyun's dad was promoted and transferred to busan, thus jaehyun was left alone with their apartment in Seoul in order to finish his studies.
taeyong,on the other hand,was kicked out by his sister since doyoung was to live with her,he could bear with the couple no more.
"jae,you live alone!?" when taeyong found out jaehyun was left solitarily,he felt surprised rather than shocked.
"yeah,like a month ago." jaehyun took a sip of his beverage,"what?"
"I-I volunteer as the best roommate you could ever imagine!"
jaehyun scanned his face and let out a chuckle,"yeah sure,you clean freak."
two months after yuta transferred to Japan,they started to live together.
the start of only good things,
the start when they seem like friends,like families,like lovers;
well,until that day though.
he remembered the first winter they spent together after their cohabitation. they had their first quarrel over where they should eat lunch,which seems extremely hilarious by now. the atmosphere between cooled down a bit after minutes of silence,pacing down the hallway.
out of the pair's expectation, the temperature outdoor precipitously decreased after they walked out from the library. taeyong's nose tip was tainted pink under the abrupt weather change, and so was jaehyun's knuckles.
taeyong couldn't stop but sneeze and quiver in his white thin shirt and ripped black pants,still incognizant of jaehyun's furtive yet caring stares.
he hesitated before breaking the ice, "...take this for awhile."
taeyong spared him a quick glance before turning to the road again. apparently he was still not in his mood as he pursed his lips,"why should I? you have both hands too,mine's are busy." he shoved his hands into his pocket.
jaehyun was this close to roll his eyes but he managed to keep his temper down,subsiding to a sigh. he put the pile of books in taeyong's arms overbearingly.
taeyong glared back at him,accelerating his steps back to their place,leaving a small distance between the younger.
suddenly,he felt an embrace that reeked of familiar cologne,arms tightly wrapped up his waist and heat transmitted to his ears.
"바보(pabo),because this warms you up easier."
blushed, he had always felt free around jaehyun to a degree,which led him to be more childish than he was with others. he couldn't help with the paradox of insecure deep inside his head. jaehyun was a perfect boyfriend material, that he sometimes think to himself why would someone like jung jaehyun on earth would treat him this nice, jaehyun might leave in anytime.
but what else can he do than immersing himself in the charm of jung jaehyun,he starts to want more than a friend that almost forgot he was afraid to love again.
he blushed as he stuttered,
"l-let me go,people are watching."
"why?you're the one who forgot to bring a jacket." jaehyun smirked,revealing his cute dimples behind the boy.
taeyong didn't retort back nor took his hands off,he just kept walking.
and that,jaehyun knew,was a reticent permission for him.
"야!hyung,walk slower,I don't feel like going home early today."
-
y'all should stop being so pissed at taeyong now hhhhh
he finally realized his feelings for jaehyun
