Her Neonate

십칠 17

"I've never felt so judged in years...It made me feel like I was back in High school when I first started showing" Alani whimpered into his chest, "I'm sorry..." Taehyung said as he stroked her head.

She looks up at him, "What?"

"I started all this...If I wouldn't have had that type of relationship with Samantha,you and Angel wouldn't have to go through that"

Alani pauses as she looks at the television, the screen held Family Guy, Alani hasn't watched this in years.

"I don't blame you, you're a grown man who can do that. She's the one to blame for not understanding the limits of your relationship in the first place"

Taehyung stares at her, a smile growing on his face, "Wow" he laughed.
Alani frowns and looks at him "What now?"

"You're cute" he said in Konglish, "Key yob dah?" Alani said slightly tilting her head, Taehyung squeals girlishly at her adorable head tilt.

"For real what does it mean?"

Taehyung thought for a moment.

"I'll tell you if you just do me one favor" he said placing his hands together, "If you have a drink with me"

Alani without hesitation nods and claps her hands together, "What do you have?" She stood to her feet, Taehyung stood too and walked over to his cabinet.

"You seem like a white wine kind of girl"

Alani laughs as he hands her an empty glass, "I'm an alcohol kind of girl"

Taehyung gasp exaggeratedly "Wow me too" he takes out a bottle of Chardonnay and pours her cup half full.
"Thank you" she said, after he pours his,she leaned her glass outward for them to cheers.

They tap their glasses together and took sips, Alani sighed happily at the rich taste, there was a hint of vanilla left on her tongue. "So are you gonna tell me?" She places the glass against her cheek, Taehyung took this moment to admire her in the dimly light kitchen.

She was refreshingly beautiful, it was like finally stepping outside of school on a Friday knowing that you and your friends were gonna go to the mall on Saturday, Convincing your mom to sleep in the same bed as you when you had a nightmare, or-

"Taehyung?...I'm waiting..." she said with a teasing tone, Taehyung sighs, "It means something you are"

"Black? Single? On the verge of losing my mind if you don't tell me what that word means?"

Taehyung laughed, her and angel act so similar.

"Cute...It means cute..."

Alani looks at him with narrowed eyes, "Are you being truthful"

"What you don't think you're cute?" Taehyung said, his playful tone from before turning serious, "Oh no I know I'm cute but I just don't believe you'd say it" she took another sip from her cup before speaking again.
"You could have called me anything and I'd never know...And by the way I never knew you spoke two languages, that's pretty cool"

"I learned English through television, school and friends my parents only spoke korean to me" Taehyung said taking a long gulp of his wine, before he knew it all his wine was gone.

"You must have a high tolerance for alcohol?" Alani asked with a straight face, Taehyung smiles "Actually not all, my head is already spinning"

Alani pauses for a moment, she puts her glass down and looks at Taehyung again.

"Let's play 20 questions"

Taehyung raises a brow, "Are you taking advantage of me" he smirks, Alani rolls her eyes and laughs "No I just wanna get to know you"

"Well okay then who goes first?"

"I'll go first...Hmm...What's you'd middle name?"

Taehyung snickers, " Umm hyung" Alani frowns "Wait what?"

"My parents gave me a korean name Kim Taehyung so technically in western countries my middle name is Hyung and my first name is Tae"
Alani formed her mouth into a 'O' shape, "Wow that's pretty cool, your turn"

Taehyung looks up at the ceiling thinking of questions, "What's your favorite television show?"

Alani shrugs "I'm more of movie kind of girl, now if we're talking films my favorite would have to be La Boum...it's a French movie I use to watch it all the time but...Nevermind that's my favorite movie"

"What's it about?"

"A teenage girl she moves to Paris with her family and basically everything goes down heel from there" She said waving off the topic, Taehyung chuckles "That explains so much about that movie" he replied sarcastically.

"Welp you'll just have to watch it yourself, my question for you is: How many kids do you want in the future?"

"My parents definitely regretted only having two children so they want me or my sister to have at least six-"

"Six freaking kids?" Alani let out a soft laugh, "Well good luck on finding the girl willing enough"

Taehyung bit his lip and watches Alani drink the rest of her wine, he blinks, he wondered what it'd be like if they had a child-
He shook the thought away quickly, "You okay there?"

"Yeah I'm fine...Want another glass?"

She nods and he pours more for the each of them, they finished their game of twenty questions twice, they were both beginning to feel a little tipsy so they thought it'd be best to stop drinking and watch a Netflix movie.
He puts on a random movie and they barely watched it because they were busy talking about everything wrong with it.
"How can two people fall in love so easily?" Alani said rolling her eyes, "The only time it's that fast is when you're a teenager"

"They only knew each other for a week and they're already talking about marriage"

Taehyung booes the television loudly, Alani laughs and shushes him, "Angel is still sleeping"

Taehyung covers his lips and mouths out an apology, Alani places her face into his chest, "Wow you really...you really smell good" she slurs.
The male pets her head and laughs at her, "I think it's time for us to sleep" he smiled drunkenly.

Alani snores causing Taehyung to tilt his head in confusion, "Wow" he breathes out, he didn't know it'd be that quick.
He continued stroking her hair until she fell asleep.
