Thursday, a day after the whole "roleplay date" incident

Namjoon has been avoiding Taehyung since morning. He knew that he shouldn't be like this to his friend, but he just couldn't help it. He couldn't brush off what happened last night, about how Taehyung called him "babe", "angel" or even how the dude just grabbed his chin, sneaked his waist... It's just too much for Namjoon to process through!

He sighed for the umpteenth time of the day before packing up, prepare for the next class. When Namjoon's about to leave the class, his phone ring. He rummage the bag to take out the phone and saw "Hoseok" on the phone screen.

Namjoon swiped the green button and take the phone to his ears. "Hobi? What's up?" he asked casually, wondering why did Hoseok call him now, it's unusual of him to call Namjoon during school hour. "Oh hey Joon, sorry for calling you now but can we meet after school? I need to tell you something."

"What's so important that we have to meet up after school? Can't you say it now?" Namjoon brows perked up at Hoseok weird announcement. The dude never make an appointment like that before. "Yes it's important and I can't explain it right now. Meet me after school Joon!" after that Hoseok hang up left Namjoon confused still standing in the hall way despite the last bell just rang a few minutes ago.

"Shit I'll be late for class." Namjoon jolted, snapping out of the daze and hurried his way to the next class. Not noticing the piercing gaze coming from behind. It was Taehyung.

During the lesson, Namjoon wasn't paying attention to the process of how enzyme break down food at all. He was daydreaming about what happened yesterday. Reminiscing about how Taehyung looked so serious confessing his feeling towards him, about the way that he looked directly in to his eyes while uttering all those embarrassing nicknames to Namjoon. It's driving his mind crazy.

He touched his cheek, the tingly sensation was still there. Namjoon felt weird, but not in a bad way though. It's not usual for him to have this weird emotion, nor when he couldn't describe how he felt. But only one thing is clear, Namjoon didn't hate what happen that night, he liked it.

Don't get him wrong, the nicknames were way too cringe for him to handle. But he liked the attention. Warmth, comfort, that's how it work. He missed it for way too long. Yet Taehyung make it visible for him again. Even if it's just roleplay, that's enough. He was not in a position to require for more.

That's what he thought at the time.

Time skip - after school -

The last bell rung and Namjoon came looking for his friend at the vending machine near the entrance door. Hoseok was standing there with a can in his hand, definitely sprite, he thought. Namjoon walked up to Hoseok as his friend now noticing him coming.

"Hey, want some sprite?" Hoseok suggested, shoving the can to him. "Nah thanks man. What's the matter that you called me out?" He asked, getting to the problem directly.

"Oh yea about that..." Hoseok said, his voice trailed off. He was shaking the can non stop while averting his eyes everywhere but Namjoon. He seemed nervous.

"Don't forget you're the one who called me out Hobi." said Namjoon. His brows raised with concern while resting his eyes at Hoseok. "Now spill the real tea."

"Um... Can I stay at your place? I only need a week." His eyes now looked directly to Namjoon's one. He gulped down the sprite nervously, waiting patiently for Namjoon respond.

"I'm not going to say no, but may I know why?" Namjoon asked. "...It's just that my parents kicked me out of the house yesterday and now I have no where to go. They found out I'm unemployed-" Hoseok replied while scratching the back of his head anxiously. "They won't let me come back until I get a new job, so please can you let me stay until I got one?"

Namjoon sighed. So that's why his friend was looking so disturbed the whole time. "You can't get one in a week you know. I'll let you stay for a month, but make it quick." He saw his friend sighed in relief, eyes beaming with happiness. 

"Thanks a lot Joon! I knew I could believe in you!" Hoseok shouted annoyingly, he scattered forward and hug Namjoon tightly while planting kisses on his friend face. "Oh my god calm down dude or people will think that we're gay!" Namjoon screamed "And stop it you're cracking my bone!"

They were having so much fun. Screaming and shouting while running after each other despite people looking at them amusingly. Unknown to them, there were two people gazing at them intensely with jealousy.

Seokjin and Taehyung.
