Chapter 45

"No way! That's so fucking sweet, I'm gonna cry!"

A brunette boy giggled excitedly.
"I never expected this, he completely took me by surprise," he sighed, looking at the display of his phone, his two best friends' faces displayed on it.

A loud squeal could be heard from the other line.
"Oh my god! What did you say? If you rejected him, Kim Taehyung, I'm killing you in your sleep. Your lover boy is one of a kind, he really loves you!"

"I accepted his confession but I asked him to wait for me. And he said he would, he's such a gentleman," the brunette spoke endearingly. Another squeal could be heard from Hoseok's line. He had not been this excited ever since the last Red Velvet comeback, and that had been a whole while ago.

"I'm happy for you, Tae. I really am. Just promise me not to rush yourself for... him," Jimin said, sounding awfully sincere, however, feeling his heart painfully sting once again.
Taehyung nodded.

"Of course. Don't worry, Jiminie. Oh-- wait." He stopped abruptly as he heard the doorbell ring shrilly.
"I need to get this, my sister has baseball practise and my mom is at work. Bye guys, talk to you later!"

"Bye-bye, TaeTae! Don't forget to show me the whole letter, I wanna know how many cheesy, sweet things he said to you!," Hoseok demanded, smiling widely and basically representing an overly ballistic sun.

"No! It's private," the youngest declined.
"Bye, Tae," Jimin said, waving him goodbye with a small smile.

"Bye, Minnie! And bye Hobi-Hyung, don't even thinking of searching for the letter anywhere, I'll be stashing it somewhere where you will not find it," Taehyung spoke sweetly, blowing a kiss at the two of them and then ending the video call.

Then, hoping the unexpected visitor would still be there, he ran downstairs and opened the front door, expecting to see the mailman or the delivery guy.

He let out a loud gasp as he saw Jeon Jungkook stand outside his front door with a small smile.

"Oh-Oh my-- What are you doing here?!," he stammered, his hands still gripping the door handle tightly as he felt excitement and giddiness spread throughout his whole chest.

"U-Uh, actually... I wanted to ask you something," the ravenette answered shyly, Taehyung smiling at that slightly.
"And you couldn't have texted me?"

The younger shook his head.
"No... it kinda has to do something with... r-right now."
The brunette felt his smile grow even wider at that, tilting his head in confusion.
"Well, what is it?"

"Uh, so... My mom is having an engagement party soon. And she asked me to bring someone along," Jungkook started carefully.
"And I wanted to ask you if you-- theoretically-- wanted to come with me? As a f-friend, if you want!," he proposed, a blush covering his cheeks.

"Awh, I'm glad your mom found someone! And I'd love to meet her, well, as a f-friend at first," Taehyung spoke, feeling his cheeks heat up aswell.
His heart started thumping as he saw the younger boy show his adorable bunny smile for a moment.

"Great! I was just gonna go to the mall to buy a suit for the party. In case you don't have one, I thought maybe you could come with me? Only if you want to, of course!," he asked shyly, the brunette immediately nodding at that.

"Of course I'll come with you! Just give me ten minutes to get ready, I look like shit right now." He looked down on himself- his hair messy and some fluffy pyjamas being the only thing he currently wore.
"You do not. You look beautiful," Jungkook objected, both of them getting super shy at that.
