HIS TOUCH || JAEYONG

Chapter 34 protect

"Babe, I'm really sorry but I really need to go home tonight. Mom doubts if I even live anymore in the same house as them because she sees me so rarely. I'll see you here tomorrow at the party, okay?" Jaehyun had called him again and now he had picked up.

"It's okay. You should go home," Taeyong glanced briefly at Ten who waited for him to speak. His friend had insisted that he should answer when Jaehyun called him again. Otherwise he would keep calling again and again for Ten's annoyance. They were still at school.

"But I really wanna sleep with you~"

"Uh..." Ten saw how the other blushed lightly. What were they talking about? "I- I know, me too but we'll see tomorrow."

"I wanna cuddle you~"

"I know. Just go home-"

"Kiss you~"

"Stop that! I'll end the call, bye," He didn't wait for Jaehyun's answer and just ended the call. He felt how his cheeks were probably beet red now by the embarrassment.

"So...should we be leaving already?" Ten asked.

"Ten, do you wanna come over for a sleepover?" He asked turning to Ten.

"Um...why not?" They had last time had sleepovers years ago. He still remembered how much fun they had together.

Ten was laying on a mattress sprawled on the floor next to Taeyong's bed. They had stayed up late talking about everything except one thing.

"Taeyong are you sleeping already?" He got no answer. Then he saw the blanket moving on the other's bed. Taeyong sat up.

"Ten, what do you think about- uh- Jaehyun?" He asked carefully. He was dying to know his answer.

"I don't really know him...Is he good to you?" He saw as Taeyong's eyes lit up and he got up from the bed to sit on the mattress and Ten sat up too. Taeyong sat legs crossed on his blanket and he was wearing only loose, short sweatpants.

"Yeah he's sweet, but I think he would kill me if he knew that you slept over tonight while he needed to go home. He is kinda overprotective."

"He comes here often?" He noticed how Taeyong blushed and looked away.

"Y-Yeah...we sleep together often..." He said enthusiastically and glanced up Ten who looked stunned for some reason. Then he realised why. "No no not like that!! Dammit. That sounded so wrong. I- I meant we just sleep in my bed together and cuddle. Hehe."

"Oh...I already thought you do it- like- every night," He noticed how the other became shy again. Ten wondered if he could ever get used to this shy Taeyong.

"We still haven't...oh...I didn't mean to say that," He was once again embarrassed.

"Why?"

"I- I don't know," He realised that his answer was actually more true than he had thought when saying it. He thought about it again. He knew that a few kisses were not enough for Jaehyun. He clearly wanted more but didn't try anything new with anymore. Just what was he trying to protect him from after all?

Ten noticed how the other turned quiet and his face serious. He placed his hand on the boy's bare knee. Taeyong looked up at him blankly.
