Run Away Royalty Sookai/Taegyu

Chapter 5

"doesn't your girlfriend miss you when your spending so much time with me?" Beomgyu sat begrudgingly at his seat at the dining table, Taehyun eating across from him.

Beomgyu took a sip of the water, the only thing he would eat on the table.

"I like men." Taehyun said casually, taking another bite of his fish. Beomgyu on the other hand, started choking.

"HOW ARE YOU SO CASUAL ABOUT THE WEIRDEST THINGS?!" beomgyu stopped choking to say and rubbed his throat.

"Is it weird? I guess for you Itd be. Don't worry, just because I like men doesn't mean my type is bratty, stubborn princes." Taehyun swallowed the bite and gave a calm look to beomgyu, who was the complete opposite.

"I have never in all my life heard of a man loving a man? It's not possible!" beomgyu had only read romance books in the village. All were a man and a woman.

"Well your highness, allow me to educate you further. A man has both a thin to enter and a place to be entered, when a man and another man live eachother very much they-"

Beomgyu screeched and stopped Taehyun from demonstrating the act with his fingers.

"Why are you telling me all this?!" Beomgyu was beet red and beyond embarrassed at this point.

"It's my job to teach you anything you want to know, even things you don't want to know, like being royal. I'm obligated to not keep any secrets from you." Taehyun finished his plate, wiping his mouth.

"Really, you have to tell me anything?"

"Yep."

"How old are you?"

"18."

"Do you like your job?"

"Yes."

"What's your favorite color?"

"Yellow and pastel colors."

Beomgyu was actually happy knowing this new rule. Taehyun would be a walking Google search bar just for him, maybe being royal wasn't too bad.

"Ready for dancing lessons?" Taehyun gestured for the guard to take beomgyus untouched food away, standing to prepare for the next lesson.

"How many lessons do I need?!" Beomgyu was getting more and more fed up with having no free time.

Hueningkai felt so immensely better, but by now the sun had gone down as he woke up.

He was surprised that he was still holding soobins hand. Soobin was fast asleep sitting against the bed.

Hueningkai didn't know why but he felt the most joy he had ever felt before seeing soobin nursing him healthy again, then staying by his side while he slept, even buying food for them.

Hueningkai noticed he still wasn't wearing his shirt, but wouldnt need it for what he wanted to show soobin.

"Soobin...soobin wake up." Hueningkai tried to nudge the boy away but he discovered soobin was a really hard person to wake up. He really did look like a sleeping prince though.

Hueningkai admired soobins features under the moonlight seeping through the window. He was really handsome, kind, and smart. It was attractive, but Hueningkai frowned thinking about how soobin was probably groomed into that to fit the prince role.

"Soobin I want to show you something, wake up." Hueningkai lifted soobins head by his cheeks.

"Mmn...what?" Soobin rubbed his eyes, waking up when he saw Hueningkai wake and talking.

"You feel better?" Soobin had a little smile threatening to spread across his face. Hueningkai was definitely better when he was healthy, bouncy, and happy.

"Yes, thank you. I have a place I want to show you." Hueningkai let go of soobins hand and stood up from the bed, steadied by soobins hand on the small of his back.

"Right now? But you just got better and it's the middle of the night." Soobin stood up to follow Hueningkai out the door.

"Shh, just trust me." Hueningkai started leading soobin down the forest trail.

Soobin wondered whether or not Hueningkai knew he wasn't wearing a shirt, but figured it didn't make much of a difference, not like they were in a castle.

Soobin's attention went from hueningkais bare back to all the fireflies that were around them, almost fully illuminating the path.

It was beautiful, the cool night air, moonlight, and fireflies. He'd never seen anything like it in the castle.

"These are the fireflies right? The bugs that glow?" Soobin smiled and tried to catch one.

"Yeah, you haven't seen them before?" Hueningkai laughed at soobin looking like a giant bunny hunting fireflies.

"No, I haven't." Soobin said, but couldn't be sad about that now that he was getting to see them firsthand.

Hueningkai moved a bush and gestured for soobin to crawl through it with him. Soobin heard water, thinking it weird when he hadn't seen rain.

Hueningkai smiled when they arrived at a small water body, with a medium sized waterfall, falling off of the creek above.

Hueningkai jumped in immediately enjoying the water.

Soobin didn't think he would see such a rainfall in his life, he rolled up his pants, gently stepping into the water.

Hueningkai laughed. "Don't be a sissy." Hueningkai pulled soobin into the water, soobin panicked for a moment but found that it was only as deep as his chest.

"Why is the rain coming from the ground?" Soobin laughed and pointed amused at the waterfall.

"It's called a waterfall. They're harmless you can touch it." Hueningkai looked to soobin and then vanished behind the waterfall.

Soobin grew a bit worried when the boy didn't come back out, creeping closer to the waterfall to try to see behind it.

A hand reached out and pulled soobin behind the waterfall, quiet.

Soobin laughed but stopped when he saw hueningkais scared expression behind his wet bangs.

"Guards." Hueningkai whispered, pointing outside of the waterfall at a group of soldiers on horseback.

Soobins happiness fell and he grew defensive, holding Hueningkai against the waterfall wall, praying they didn't come to the water.

Hueningkai didn't think he'd see anyone in this forest, let alone a prince and royal guards, but here he was, getting pinned by the prince himself behind a waterfall.

"I heard laughing, spread out and check the area."
