Is It Wrong? | Sope

Chapter 9

Yoongi POV

My eyes widen a bit at his words, surprised by all of it. In all honesty, I have no idea how to really feel about it. I can feel the tears forming in my eyes, but I avert my gaze as I attempt to fight and hold them back. I don't know what to say or what to do right now, feeling completely lost with all of this right now. Still feeling hurt from what he'd said in the conference room, yet now giving me mixed emotions from what he's just said now right here.

"Which am I supposed to fucking believe?" I whimper softly, wishing my voice had been stronger, wanting my tone to have been colder than what it is. Glancing up at him hesitantly, there's a heartbroken look on his face as he looks down at me. He takes a couple steps closer to me, kneeling down in front of me as he gives me a soft smile.

"Yoongi, I promise, what I said in the conference room was just a lie. I didn't mean to hurt you and I shouldn't have said what I did in there. I'm sorry for it. Please, forgive me. I just wanna be friends and for us to work well together, make sure you're taking care of yourself and other such." Hoseok says softly, his hands resting gently on my knees.

I just wanna be friends... please excuse the sound of my heart just fucking shattering.

Before I can manage to control myself, a quiet whimper slips from my mouth. He tilts his head to the side slightly, a small smile still on his plump lips as he watches me for some sort of response or reaction. Though, sitting here so close to him, it's hard to contain myself. It's beyond tempting having him sitting right in front of me like this. Not being able to help myself, I gently place both hands on his cheeks. His eyes widen a bit at my touch, almost seeming to nuzzle into my hands a bit as he relaxes into my touch. A small smile tugs at my lips at the sight, lips parting lightly in the smile.

"Yoongi?" Hoseok breathes out softly, eyes still locked on mine. Taking a deep breath, I slowly begin to lean in. His eyes widen a bit once again, realizing what's happening as he glances down at my lips before looking back up at me. Swallowing hard, I close the gap between us as I press my lips against his. There's a part of me that's screaming at myself, telling me that this wrong. That it's all wrong, that I shouldn't be kissing him. And there's some reasoning to it. I'm just supposed to be working with him, collaborating. He even explicitly stated that he just wants to be friends.

However, as he molds his lips against mine, moving his lips against mine together in sync, that voice slowly begins fade. With my heart pounding in my chest, I continue moving my lips against his soft plump ones. Hesitantly, I glide my tongue across his lower lip. I feel him part his lips slowly for me, allowing me to slip my tongue into his mouth. Both of us smile lightly into it, tongues roaming each other's mouths for a good minute before we finally pull away.

His eyes widen when we finally pull away, looking up at me in mild surprise. His already plump lips are now swollen and parted, light puffs of breath slipping past them. Though, they're partially pulled up in a small smile.

"Yoongi..." Hoseok murmurs softly, clearly still in a bit of a daze from the kiss. I chuckle softly, brushing a piece of his brunette hair out of his eyes as I lean back in and peck his lips before pulling away completely.

"Sorry, Hoseok. I... I know you said you just wanna be friends, but I... I couldn't help myself." I apologize softly, rubbing the back of my neck nervously. He merely smiles up at me, shaking his head. He leans back up, pecking my lips this time, causing me to blush at his actions.

"Don't you worry about it, Yoongi-ah. I like this much better than being friends." Hoseok murmurs softly as he reaches up and puts a hand to my cheek gently.

"Oh? And what exactly is 'this'?" I question quietly, a cheeky smirk on my own swollen lips. This time, it's his turn to blush as he bites his lip, looking away. Reaching out, I gently place my thumb on his lip as I release it from his teeth. His eyes widen a bit at my action, giving me a slightly questioning look.

"Don't do that. It only makes me want to kiss you that much more. And not the light kind." I whisper, eyes flickering between his eyes and lips once again as I notice the blush on his cheeks heating up anymore.

"W-what d-do you w-want this t-to be?" Hoseok asks softly, eyes wide as he looks up at me. I chuckle with a small smirk.

"Baby, I think I asked you that question."
