26 : Our territory

There was enough time, you told yourself but still you were rushing to get home and prepare dinner. Once again, Taehyung would have to come with Yoongi because you could spend that time on cooking.

After a long time someone was coming to your house as a guest because ever since Taehyung came into your life, everyone seemed to be busy with their lives or maybe it was you who was already occupied.

You always hosted dinners for your friends but wasn't been able to do such for a long time. So naturally you were pretty much excited for the following evening.

Namjoon had went back to his house because he wanted to change. He said something about not being comfortable in his office clothes and you understood that perfectly well.

You were making your infamous lasagna because everyone said you made lasagna better. You could have taken it as 'you only make lasagna good' or either as 'you make lasagna so good that we're always craving for it' but you didn't and left it as it was.

A fruit salad was next although your fruits stock was almost finished and had to make it with only three fruits but it was all better if it tasted good. And it did. So you didn't have to worry.

You had also invited Yoongi and Hoseok along with Mr. and Mrs. Lee because dinner was never completed without those two precious person. The kind lady wanted to help you but were adamant on doing it all by yourself.

You made two side dishes as well and they looked pretty good. Tasted nice as well. But the best thing was, your house was smelling so nice with all the intricate flavours mixing together.

"It smells so nice noona. What are you cooking?" Taehyung voice booms into the house and he soon comes into the kitchen with a very wide smile, making you smile as well unconsciously.

Is that a contagious thing?

"See for yourself." You opened up the lid of the pot where you put lasagna and Taehyung takes in a long sniff, eyes closing and ears perking up due to the delicious smell.

"For me?" He asks with big beautiful eyes even though he knew the answer to it and could almost predict your reply to be, 'of course, who else?' but he didn't expect you to say, "My friend is coming for dinner."

"Oh." Realization hits but he smiles. It wasn't like your friend would be having all of it, he was gonna eat it too.

"You should shower and change. It's almost time they come." You say closing the lid back on only to met with same big eyes but curious this time. He looked too adorable without even trying to be and it actually made you a little jealous sometimes.

You reach out to pinch his cheek because your couldn't help it and he shuffles away from you with a pout. You giggle. "Yes I've invited our neighbors too. Now go."

He doesn't say anything back, just a nod and a sweet smile because in the little time he spent here, he came to love his neighbors as much as do for all they have done for you till now.

A little after fifteen minutes, Taehyung comes out in his favourite brown fluffy jacket which he couldn't get enough of. You swear he wore that article every week but you were not to complain because the oversized clothing was literally drowning him in itself and it was just so cute overall.

However, he wasn't wearing underneath the jacket because it was probably warm enough and how did you know that? Because the zipper of the jacket was opened up to the middle of his chest, showing more skin that your eyes could take but you remained quite about that and tried not to look there.
