HIS TOUCH || JAEYONG

Chapter 27 smile for him

They went back in the coffeeshop as it was still half an hour before Jaehyun would get off work. Taeyong sat near the window and followed the other's every move attentively as he cleaned the tables or made coffee behind the counter. Sometimes Jaehyun looked in his direction and gave him a sweet smile.

Taeyong had no idea what would happen next between them but he was sure about one thing, he loved Jaehyun. Maybe he had done the whole time, just never realizing it.

He glanced at clock on the wall, it was still twenty minutes before Jaehyun would be all free for him again.

"What are you and Jaehyun? You've been keeping flirting with each other like that ever since you came back," Yuta appeared in front of him blocking his view to Jaehyun. He had forgotten that this one was still here.

"Uh...I don't know-"

"Did you happen to go Yongsan high school?" Now he was sure he was that Yuta. They had went to same school. He stared up at the worker with wide eyes not knowing what to say.

"You- You're Nakamoto Yuta, aren't you?"

"Oh my god you remember me?! I was worried that you wouldn't. I'm glad," Yuta smiled from ear to ear and jumped enthusiastically. He still acted the same as Taeyong remembered. "Could we be friends again?"

Yuta lifted his hand for the other to take it. Taeyong looked at in confuse thinking if he should actually go for it. He was curious as earlier when their fingers had touched he sure had freaked out but not as much as he had thought he would. Maybe it would be okay.

He lifted his hand slowly, Yuta looking at him with expectant eyes. "Taeyong we're leaving now."

He was startled at the voice so he dropped his hand quickly and turned to the one voice belonged to. Jaehyun looked pissed off for some reason. He stood up and walked to him past Yuta.

"See you tomorrow Yuta," Jaehyun said and started dragging the other boy out of the building. He squeezed Taeyong's hand tightly in his.

"J-Jaehyun slow down," They were now outside and Taeyong tried to wiggle his hand free from the other's death grip. Then he turned around abruptly to face him, finally freeing his hand.

"Were you actually going to shake hands with him?" Jaehyun looked at him with intense stare.

"Maybe-"

"You can't, you just can't do that! Do you hear me?" Taeyong flinched at his harsh tone. He couldn't understand why Jaehyun was telling him this. It was normal to shake hands with others and he wanted to feel normal too.

"O-Okay," He looked down feeling so small in the situation. He heard Jaehyun sighing.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to snap out like that...I guess I need to get used to you touching everyone else too now," He didn't have to worry about it before when he knew Taeyong would never touch anyone beside him but now the boy was doing something he didn't like.

"I just wanted to see what would happen if I did that," Taeyong played with the hem of his jacket nervously.

"It's okay, I'm sorry, I might have gotten a bit too possessive just now," Jaehyun took a step closer to him and touched his hand tenderly. He laced their fingers together. "Is this okay?"

Taeyong nodded and lifted his head again only to be surprised with a kiss on his forehead. His face flushed red immediately but either way, he leaned close to Jaehyun and pressed a quick kiss on his lips.
