Tight Leather

6: "It's my kink, okay?"

[So my jellybeans, it's time for chapter six. I'm going to be skipping through some in-book time again, along with the actual debut date. Just to clarify, Taemin has known each member for around five months now.

I'm pretty sure Taemin's birthday is 18th July, so I can't wait to write part two of this day.

Please all appreciate this image of Key. We stan a man with freckles.]

July 18th, 2008 [Taemin's 21st birthday!]

3rd Person POV:

Taemin was awoken by a continuous thumping noise coming from the room alongside his and Jonghyun's. His eyes hadn't yet adjusted to the light beaming in through the window that was just above Jonghyun's bed. Sliding the covers off from his body, he removed his shirt and looked over at Jonghyun. He was still asleep, his chin resting on top of his duvet, making him look really small.

Just as Taemin was about to get into the shower, Key ran into the room with his phone in his hand. He had pushed the door so hard that it had slammed against the wall, which in turn had woken Jonghyun up. Jonghyun was about to shout at Key for ruining his dream when Key suddenly screamed at the top of his lungs. Everyone could still hear the thumping in the background, which they all soon realised was music. For some reason, the beat sounded familiar. "It's our song! It's on YouTube!" Key smiled, waving his phone manically above his head.

"That's great, but why are you playing it at 7 in the morning?" Taemin asked, feeling very exposed in his boxers.

"On our day off, no less," Jonghyun muttered, turning over in his bed to face away from us. His duvet had slid down the side of his bed, exposing his legs and back. He too was in nothing but boxers.

Before Key was able to reply, the doorbell had rung.

Taemin's POV:

"I'll get it then!" Minho called from the kitchen. I could hear his footsteps thudding on the tiles, eventually making his way to the front door. Key had disappeared into his room to switch the obnoxiously loud music off and Jonghyun had decided to cover his exposed back with his duvet.

Running down the stairs, I was able to catch Minho opening the door. A cold wind blew past the two of us, making my fringe move to the sides. "Can we help you?"

"Well aren't you a tall glass of sexy," the lady chuckled, dropping the bags she was holding to the floor. Her voice sounded very raspy, but still has volume to it. Her hair hung down in front of her face, so I was unable to distinguish any features.

"Is Taemin here?"

"Chae-Young?" I gasped, pushing past Minho and joining her outside on the path. "I didn't recognise you with your hair down," I laughed, wrapping my hands around her waist. She reciprocated my hug by placing her right arm on my shoulders, which warmed me up slightly.

"I'm very offended, Taemin. Who else would come to see you on your twenty-first birthday?" She smiled, kissing me on the head. By this time Jonghyun, Key and Onew had joined Minho in staring at the both of us.

Jonghyun had turned to the rest of them to say something, but I was too far away to hear. After they had heard what he had said, each of them shared a rather shocked expression.

Onew began to walk over to the two of us and extended his hand. He shook his head to remove the hair from his face and looked directly at me. "It's so nice to meet your girlfriend, Taemin," he smiled, waiting for Chae-Young to shake his hand.

She and I looked at each other before we burst out laughing. I was unable to see their faces, but I knew they were looking at us in confusion. Once we had stopped laughing, Chae-Young grabbed her bags and made her way into our house.
