Jeongguk was heavily distracted by the soft snores coming from the older one who was already long asleep beside him on the bed while he was trying to help him with the lessons.

Jeongguk stopped reading and now closed his book and smiled to himself before watching the older sleeping with his back pressed on the wall and head against it and Jeongguk just asked himself whispering, "Should I wake him up of just let him be? But his head and shoulders will hurt later."

"I will call Jimin—" Jeongguk grabbed his phone from his side and noticed that it was already one in the morning and he doesn't know how to deal with this sleeping beauty.

Jeongguk decided to make him lay properly on his bed and he will sleep on the floor or probably beside Taehyung which he wasn't so sure of at the moment but anyway slowly with caution tucked him to bed.

He realized his body was a bit cold so he pulled that blanket and covered him with it. Taehyung moved a little and was about to wake up but again stirred into that deep sleep when the warmth of the mattress and blanket plus the softness of the pillow embraced him with oh so much love.

Taehyung actually had an habit of sleeping with cuddling up with something soft and this time it was Jeongguk's another pillow and now he was left with no pillow but he didn't mind as he smiled at this and pushed that blanket even more.

Jeongguk just sat there and stared at the one who was most probably having sweet dreams about something, "Now that you took my bed, my pillows where do I sleep?"

Jeongguk asked and no answer from the older and as he was about to go to Jackson's and his roommates room but then saw Taehyung curling up in a ball and noticed that his legs were exposed to the cold.

Jeongguk didn't hesitate once before he reached out for his washed pair of red socks from his basket of clothes near his study table. He crouched down on the floor beside Taehyung's feet and made them wear those socks,

"Even his feet looks gorgeous, what the fuckery is this?"

"Now that you're sleeping and I can tell you everything without feeling weird about it, listen—" the blond said and slowly reached out for Taehyung's hand which he found very attractive, "This must be a hoax right?"

"This feels unreal, these days, I want to talk to you, not to brag or flex that I am the mage's son, I want to see you more, not to find chances to annoy you. I want to listen to you, not all of those curses and stuff, you have been important to me these days and this is concerning," Jeongguk confessed all that he had inside, these past days, he had been feeling so close to Taehyung, after all he did for him even when he was his enemy, all the smiles directed at him, Jeon Jeongguk liked to stay with Kim Taehyung, very much to be exact.

Say it as a friend or whatever but he did like it when he was around, "You have managed to get a place in my life and I hope it stays just like that. I really wish none of those competition or whatever issues our dads have with each other come between us."

Jeongguk stayed silent for sometime before keeping his head on the edge of the bed while he watched Taehyung sleep in peace.

Taehyung woke up in the middle of the night all of a sudden and once he acknowledged where he was, he was surprised but he was astonished to see Jeongguk sleeping near his feet with his head on the edge of the bed while he was sat on the floor, "Ah shit, how did I sleep here?"

"Hey, Jeongguk," Taehyung scooted closer and slowly moved the other's hand but he was already sleeping so hard. So, it took him a while to wake him up.

"Come on, get on the bed, your neck will hurt in the morning," the brunet pointed out to which the half sleepy Jeongguk just nodded and moved up to the bed only to crash on his pillow that very moment.

Taehyung got up and was about to leave when he heard the other speak, "Press the door lock before you leave and Goodnight,"

"Night," Taehyung replied in a very low tone and with that Jeongguk again closed his eyes.

The older was about to get his slippers on when he noticed that pair of red socks he had on, they of course didn't belong to him and he knew who did that. He couldn't but smile at this small gesture, it was cute, very cute.

Without saying anything, he just smiled at the one who this room belonged to and walked out, pressing the door lock and pulling it to close it. Now only Jeongguk can open it from the inside.

"He is genuinely a nice and caring person."

"Dude, don't stare at him like a hawk, if you want to talk, just go and talk," Hoseok said as he noticed his one and only blond friend staring at Kim Taehyung from the past ten minutes without any break.

"I am not staring at him, I am just watching him, he is adorable when he uses his hand while talking," Jeongguk denied and pointed out while Hoseok raised a brow, "You're gonna creep him out not gonna lie and tell me what's baking?"

"Baking? What do you mean?" Jeongguk asked not quite getting the point while Hoseok face palmed. They were in their classroom and they as usual were having classes but suddenly when all the professors and lecturers were called for an urgent meeting which now has become a very common thing in Belfort which the students seem to enjoy a lot.

"What's up with you? Do you like Taehyung or what?"

"What? No? He is a friend—" Hoseok interrupted.

"Yeah sure and when did you ever tell me that I look hot or Namjoon looks cute when smiling and also that Jackson has a great body hmm?" Hoseok asked, more like demanded an answer before stealing a glance at Taehyung who was sitting with Jimin in another row.

"I don't like him in that way," Jeongguk cleared the misconception starting to weave inside Hoseok's mind but hello? Why did he even ask that question to himself if he was that sure?

"Yeah, sure dude, I am seeing and observing how you're acting these days, is it actually a prank?" Jeongguk surely didn't expect that question from the other but now that he asked, he can't but wonder if he actually was doing something that shows that he is catching feelings however pushing these thoughts aside he replied to Hoseok's accusation first, "This. Is. Not. A. Prank. For Pishogue's sake, stop asking that already!"

"Ah it better not,"

"It's not!" Jeongguk huffed looking away as he folded his arms over his chest, not liking the doubts at all.

"Do you really think I like him? In that way? I mean in a romantic way like I never thought about it and now that you mentioned, do I?" Jeongguk was again bombarding the other with questions while they both heard Jackson and Namjoon laughing in the back bench because of some dick joke Namjoon said.

"Airhead, how would I know that? It's your feelings, not mine. You tell me if your heart and dick tingles seeing him, if yes then congrats you do have 'em!"

"Ah fuck, not that dick tingles yet but heart, I don't know buddy, just I like him around," Jeongguk genuinely said, his voice filled with nothing but sheer honesty.

"Time will tell you, even if it's the case, don't rush. Think about it and then make a move," Hoseok said and Jeongguk nodded, again glancing at Taehyung who surprisingly looked back at him while he was talking to Jimin.

They have a brief eye contact before he smiled and looked back at Jimin.

Jeongguk's heart warmed at that small smile thrown at him and he now was smiling so widely at nothing in particular,

"Ah, boy. You're right, he is cute." Hoseok said and Jeongguk nodded, "I know right."

"But still, think about it, be sure and the do something, don't let doubts ruin things when you already made a move—" Jeongguk cut the other's sentence off, "Look, I don't think it's romantic liking okay, it's just maybe I desperately want him to know that I care for him now, maybe I just want his doubts about me to clear out, yeah that's that."

"Uh yeah whatever," Hoseok shrugged his shoulders.

Taehyung on the other hand had seen the blond watch over him from the past few minutes and wondered why was he staring at him like that.

Before he could walk up to him and ask something or do anything, a healer of Belfort came running into the class and searched for a specific someone.

"Jeon Jeongguk, you are called urgently!"
