Enter, You

Your Being

Taehyung stirred awake, still in Seokjin's arms. Hazily looking towards the clock above the TV, he noticed that this was usually the time Seokjin would be waiting for them during class. His punctuality was always a pain to follow, forcing Taehyung to wake up even earlier then he would've liked to, just to be able to observe Seokjin. His insistence to appear before anyone else was one of the many stubborn parts of his Hyung. If he was going to wake up earlier then others, he should've at least bothered to stay awake the entire time. If Seokjin was unconscious, others might get overly touchy with him. Speaking of which, he was still slept against the couch, breathing quietly next to him. Taehyung shifted in Seokjin's arms, careful not to wake him up as he moved closer to Seokjin's face. Unable to contain himself, Taehyung gently felt his cheek against his hand. It's been a long time since he's been able to just feel him. According to all of those romantic movies Seokjin forced him to watch, this would've been the waiting period before Seokjin realized he did love him. Until then, he'd wait for the on-point climax the movies always had to reach before the third muster. Whispering into his ear, he muttered softly.

"I love you."

Of course, he couldn't hear it and nor could he reply until he did eventually fall in love with him as well. But, he was truly worth the wait. Adjusting himself back into his arms, he gently smiled as he dozed off again.

Seokjin's natural body system forced him to stay awake. Since he couldn't move until Taehyung woke up, he just stayed awkwardly awake with his eyes still closed. It's been a while since he's taken time to simply be around Taehyung. If his hobbies didn't take his time, taking care of his school studies occupied his daily life. Even though they've technically known each other since middle school, Taehyung's never actually talked to him during that time. At times, he could notice longing stares from him from across the room or a pair of eyes watching him whenever he assisted a fellow classmate but he never worried over it. Sometime during his graduation, Taehyung finally approached him. He looked even more handsome up-close, almost as handsome as he was. That's when he met that boxy smile. Suddenly, he felt a warm touch against his face, skimming over his skin gently.

"I love you."

Tensing at those words, he attempted to remain still. He didn't bother opening his eyes again until Taehyung laid back on him.

"I love you?"

Seokjin could've believed the words, but couldn't have properly understood it. Was he simply too dense to realize that Taehyung might've loved him? It was easier to dismiss it as brotherly love then ponder further. Relaxing again, he closed his eyes and blocked out the increased flow of thoughts.

Namjoon woke up from the sound of crashing outside his window. Kicking off the files that were laying on him, he stumbled off the couch and stared outside. Paranoidly, he flung open the window and checked outside. He sighed after the realization that it was nothing more than a mere cat and went back to organize his paperwork. Looking over them again, he felt anxious from seeing the stark resemblance between the victims and Seokjin. He rubbed the sleepiness out of his eyes and went to the bathroom to watch his face. Prepping for school, his growing fears cluttered his mind as he put his research into his bag. With a serial killer on the loose, he couldn't afford to ignore anything. The victims were all found within a sizable radius of five miles between his own home and the school, leaving room for more corpses in his wake. Not taking any chances, he finished straightening his school tie before heading off for Seokjin's house. Walking through their neighborhood, he found that his windows were left open. Peering over, he could see Taehyung sleeping with Seokjin peacefully. Feeling a pang of jealousy, he knocked on the door with more intensity then he expected. The door swung open and Taehyung gave a strange smile he's never witnessed before.
