Fifty Three

"Taehyung!"

Taehyung froze as he heard his name being called from downstairs. Usually, if Hoseok called him like that it meant that he was either in trouble, or Hoseok was too lazy to come find him. Most of the time it was the former.

So you can understand why Taehyung was just a little reluctant to drag himself down the stairs to face his boyfriend.

As he traipsed down the stairs, he practiced his 'I'm sorry for whatever bratty thing I did this time' look, hoping to come across as convincing.

He poked his head into the living room cautiously, Hoseok was sitting on the couch, manspreading as per usual.

"Yeah?" He said quietly, already pulling out the puppy dog eyes in the hopes that if he was in trouble, that Hoseok would go easy on him.

On the contrary, Hoseok didn't seem to be angry in the slightest. He beckoned Taehyung over to the couch with a big grin on his face.

"Come here." Hoseok beckoned, patting the couch beside him.

Taehyung was still ever so slightly apprehensive as he crossed the room.

"I just got off the phone with my mom," Hoseok told the younger as Taehyung plonked himself down on the sofa. "And she has a surprise for us!"

"And...?" Taehyung prompted. "What is it?!"

"I hope this isn't way too intense seeing as you just met my parents recently, but my mom liked you so much, that she booked a holiday for all of us!" Hoseok exclaimed. "And since you told her how much you wanted to go to Europe someday... We're all going to Paris!"

"Really?!" Taehyung crowed excitedly.

"Yeah! They've already booked the tickets apparently." Hoseok beamed. "I hope you're not freaked out by how soon it is after you met them, but my parents really want to see you again- my dad's even booked the time off work, which is a big deal because he's a workaholic too."

"Oh my gosh!" Taehyung gasped. "They must like me- they really like me!"

"Of course they do, bud." Hoseok smiled at Taehyung's childlike glee. "They adore you. My mom is obsessed with you, she asks about you every single day now."

"Really?" Taehyung awed.

"Yeah, even though you two talk and text now, she still brings you up every time I call her and asks how you're doing and if I'm feeding you well. She's a lot- I know, she wants to make all these plans and stuff but she's already being really full on with the holiday and-"

"She's literally amazing, Hoseok, she's so welcoming and accepting of us- she's not too much for me." Taehyung crowed happily, it felt like he had a mom again, someone that really cared for him like a son. "Please, please tell her that I would absolutely love to go on holidays with her."

"Really? You're not like, overwhelmed with the intensity of her affection?" Hoseok said cautiously, he couldn't tell if Taehyung was just being polite to save his mom's feelings or if he genuinely was okay with the sudden onslaught of affection.

"No! No way- Hoseok, you don't grow up with the shitty parents I had and then turn your nose up at someone who's really making an effort to make you feel included." Taehyung said. "I'm honoured, really. She didn't have to do any of this or even like me at all, but she's gone out of her way to make me feel like part of the family."

"You are part of the family now." Hoseok said simply. "And I'm really glad you're up for the vacation, especially since I know how bad you've wanted to go to paris. My mom was telling me about what we can do there too and she's booked some really cool tours for us."
