Skin to Skin [Editing]

Jungkook was sitting on a bench chewing on a hotdog with mustard, ketchup, and who knows what else. Nia waves at him and he waves back. "You guys ready to leave?" Jungkook asks before taking another bite of his hotdog. "I invited them over for dinner at our house." Taehyung says motioning towards us. Jungkook sets his hotdog down and stretches. "Alright then, let's go."

He grabs his hotdog and makes his way to the car. "Min drove here so we'll follow you guys." Nia says to Taehyung. He nods and waves them off. I watch as Nia leaves with Min's hand in hers and her big bear in the other. I suddenly remembered that I didn't grab the bear when we were on the ferris wheel. I groaned out loud without realizing it. "What's wrong? Are you tired?" Taehyung asks.

"No. I just remembered that I left the bear you won for me on the ferris wheel." Taehyung smiles and pulls the bear from behind him. "I didn't forget." He says with a smile. I grab the bear and hug it tightly. "Thank you, Tae." He kisses my forehead and we both head to the car. Jungkook offered me the front seat and I thanked him. We drive off and Min follows right behind us.

The car ride was pretty silent. Taehyung grabbed my hand and smiled. I liked that we were a couple now. I mean sure, we don't know much about each other yet, but that's what being in a relationship is about, right? We all pull up to the guys' house and Taehyung helps me out of the car like a gentleman. We all get inside and Taehyung brings us to the living room. We all sit down around the coffee table. Jungkook left us and went upstairs.

"I'll start dinner. Do you guys want anything to drink?" We all shake our heads no and Taehyung heads into the kitchen to prepare dinner. Nia looks around the room in awe. "This is such a nice place." She turns to me. "Is he filthy rich?" I shrug. "Heck if I know. I obviously wouldn't ask him that." I stretch on the couch. "I'm just thankful he invited us to dinner." "Me too." Min says glancing at Nia.

"So when did you guys decide to make it official?" I ask. "Well..." Nia starts. "The day after Min gave me the note, I texted him and asked if he wanted to meet up. We talked for a while and he asked how I felt about him." She glances at Min and then back at me. "I did have a crush on Min back when were still in high school but I was too scared to say anything." I quickly sit up. "You never told me that!" I exclaim.

"Besties are supposed to tell each other everything." I frown. "I know girlie, but I didn't want it to get in the way of our friendship." Min kisses her cheek. "But, Min won me over and here we are." I clap. "You guys are so cute together. I turn to Min. "So Min, when did you start having feelings for Nia?" I ask.

"Well, it was the first week I transferred to high school. Class was over and I was walking past the classrooms. I heard Nia singing in one of the rooms. I peeped inside and she was sweeping the floor and singing to herself. It was the most beautiful voice I've ever heard." Min gazed into Nia's eyes. "And you were the most beautiful girl I've ever seen." Nia hung her head down as Min brought her face to his chest. "I-I thought you s-said it was during...the school trip?" Nia stutters.

Min smiles. "I lied. I'm sorry." A tear falls down Nia's cheek and Min wipes it away. I stand up, feeling a little awkward. "Ah...I'll go check up on the food." I go into the kitchen and see Taehyung hard at work chopping up vegetables. He was wearing a purple apron and had his sleeves rolled up. I knock on the wall and he looks directly at me. "Come in." He says with a smile.

I walk next to him and look over his shoulder. Not sure what he was fixing but it smells great. "Whatcha cooking?" I ask. "It's a surprise." I grab a towel and wipe the sweat from the side of his face. He leaned over and kissed my cheek. I smiled as he put all the chopped-up vegetables in the crock pot. "How is everyone? Hope they aren't too hungry." I look back in the living room.

Nia is laying her head on Min's shoulder and he's stroking her hand. "They're fine." "Good. Dinner should be almost done." He washes his hands and starts cleaning up the kitchen and I help him. "Lana, you don't have to help me clean." Taehyung says stealing my wet cloth. "But I wanna help." I say trying to steal back my cloth. Taehyung laughs. "I give up." He says with a shrug. I smile as he hands me back the cloth. "Thank you."
