It was currently 5:34 in the morning. Taehyung woke up first and saw that he and Jeongguk were embracing each other in their sleep.

'Right! I slept with him. WAIT! I SLEPT WITH KOO!!', he yelled inside his head.

Taehyung was definitely happy at the moment. To him, this meant their relationship was improving. The thought made his heart flutter.

He was gonna go back to sleep and continue cuddling Jeongguk but realized it was a Friday.

'Fuck the weekdays. You know what?! Who cares?! I'm staying like this', he thought before leaning his head on Jeongguk's chest. His left leg on top of Jeongguk.

The action woke up Jeongguk due to the weight he felt on him all of a sudden.

"Baby?", Jeongguk questioned in a sleepy tone.

"Yes, Koo?", Taehyung replied.

"What time is it?", Jeongguk asked, still sleepy.

"Don't look at the time. I don't want you to leave!", Taehyung pleaded.

"Huh? What are you talking about? Leave you?", Jeongguk asked all confused.

"Not like that. I don't want you to go to school. Stay with me~", Taehyung whined.

"Do you like me that much?", Jeongguk asked, ruffling Taehyung's hair. A smile forming on his lips.

"No, I Love You that much", Taehyung stated.

"You're too cute. Let's get up for school", Jeongguk said.

"Nooo. Don't wanna...", Taehyung said, clinging onto Jeongguk more.

"But ba-"

"Unless...", Taehyung interrupted.

"Unless what?", Jeongguk questioned.

"Kisses", Taehyung replied.

"What?"

"I want kisses from you on the lips every once in a while. That's my condition", Taehyung said, snuggling his head on Jeongguk's chest.

Jeongguk sat up on the bed. In doing so, he didn't realize that he also made Taehyung sit up since Taehyung was basically on him. Now, Taehyung was straddling his lap.

"Oh, sorry", Jeongguk apologized, laughing a bit.

"Koo, I'm serious here. I'm not letting you go unless you agree to that condition. I want to be able to kiss you. Whether it's a peck, a normal and semi passionate kiss or a full on lustful one", Taehyung said, not breaking eye contact.

Jeongguk was not expecting that but he did like the idea no matter which way he looked at it. That is why he decided to tease Taehyung. He was gonna pretend he'd think about it.

"Why are you thinking about it? Don't you like the idea of kissing me?", Taehyung asked pouting.

If Jeongguk was drinking any kind of beverage, he would have sure spitted it out due to shock.

'Two can play at this', Jeongguk thought.

He leaned closer to Taehyung's ear and asked in a seductive way, "A lustful one you say, ey? How badly do you want this?"

Taehyung turned a light shade of pink. Jeongguk noticed this and couldn't help but coo.

"I was just joking with you, babe", Jeongguk said, patting Taehyung's head.

Taehyung, still flustered, couldn't look at him.

"Look at me", Jeongguk told Taehyung but Tae still wouldn't look.

'Still ever so precious', Jeongguk thought as he smiled.

Jeongguk got up from bed and made sure he didn't take Taehyung with him this time like how he did when he sat up.

Before searching for some clothing to wear, he cupped Taehyung's cheeks with his hands and gave him a peck on the lips, catching Taehyung by surprise.

Taehyung touched his lips lightly. He was still quite shocked.

"Go get ready, love. Don't you want more kisses?", Jeongguk teased.

Taehyung shot up from bed and quickly rushed to his room to get his clothes for the day.

Jeongguk chuckled.

"YOU'RE SUCH A DORK!", he yelled.

"WELL, YOU'RE A BIGGER DORK!!", Taehyung yelled back from his room.

———

"Are you sure you didn't forget anything?, Taehyung asked suspiciously. He didn't want to come back to the house due to Jeongguk forgetting his stuff.

"Yeah. Don't worry", Jeongguk reassured.

Both walked out of the house and Taehyung locked it.

Before leaving, Jeongguk reached out his hand for Taehyung.

Taehyung looked at his hand questioningly. "I don't get it", he says.

"Are you kidding? Tae, I'm asking for your hand in a sophisticated way. More polite, your could say", Jeongguk says.

"Ohhh. OH!"

"Idiot"

"How was I supposed to know?! You usually just hold it without permission", Taehyung said, rolling his eyes.

"... Are you gonna take it or not?", Jeongguk asked.

"What kind of question is that?", Taehyung questioned, intertwining his and Jeongguk's hands.

—

"Hey, Koo?"

"Yeah?"

"Can I.. uh... walk with you all the way to your school?", Taehyung asked.

"I don't have a problem with it but I don't like the idea of you walking so much on your own. Plus, people stare, you know?", Jeongguk said.

"I'm used to it. Many people do that at school. Pretty please? I won't do anything bad. I'll walk around the school gate with you for a bit. We still have 40 minutes before school starts, anyways", Taehyung said smiling.

Jeongguk thought about it for a bit.

"Sure"

———

"Look! I see it", Taehyung said, letting go of Jeongguk and running off.

"Tae! Don't run off!", Jeongguk yelled, running after Taehyung.

Jeongguk caught up to him and grabbed him by the arm.

"No running off", Jeongguk told him.

...

"Uh, Koo. People are staring..", Taehyung whispered.

Jeongguk looked around and saw that they passed the school gate. Meaning, they were a wide open view to the other students.

'I can't tell if they're staring at me or Tae.. or both?', Jeongguk thought, a bit disturbed by the staring.

"Tae!", Chul yelled out of excitement and ran up to him wanting to give him a hug, but Jeongguk wouldn't let him.

"Not a chance", Jeongguk told him.

Taehyung held Jeongguk's hand as a sign of reassurance and told him that it's fine. He then smiled at Chul.

"Uh.. Hi?", Taehyung said, a bit nervous.

"HEY! OH MY GOD! JEONGGUK YOU ARE AMAZING! THANKS FOR LETTING TAE COME HERE AND INTRODUCE ME", Chul yelled out louder.

"The fuck are you talking about? If I had a choice, I'd keep Tae all to myself and not introduce him to anyone", Jeongguk stated, making Taehyung laugh.

"May I get an autograph?", Chul asked in a pleading way, giving Taehyung a piece of paper and a pen.

"I don't see why not", Taehyung said with a smile, signing the little paper.

"Thank you so much!", Chul thanked with glee. Chul then received a message and checked it.

"I gotta go. My best friend is looking for me at the field! Once again, thank you!", Chul said before running off.

"Awe. He seemed like a total sweetheart", Taehyung said all giddy.

Jeongguk rolled his eyes.

"Koo-"

"IT'S TAE!!"

"TAEHYUNG!"

"KIM TAEHYUNG IS HERE!"

And before they knew it, Taehyung was already surrounded by many. Not just 3 to 4. A lot. Including girls.

'Huh?! I didn't get this much attention last time. Could it be that most had already left at that time. No.. that can't be it. It was early. Wait! Freaking Chanel! It just has to be them! I told them not to release the ad yet and give me some time!', Taehyung thought.

There were many fans who surrounded Taehyung and Jeongguk but most were just asking for autographs. A few of them tried to touch him wherever they could being the horny males and females that they are. It wasn't just on Taehyung, though. Jeongguk could feel how people would try and touch him in areas he didn't like.

Taehyung was getting really uncomfortable and it was evident. Jeongguk noticed the look on his 'friend' and also took notice of a particular guy who was reaching out his hand to touch Taehyung wrongly.

Jeongguk wasted no time and kicked him in the stomach, catching everyone's attention.

"DO YOU ALL THINK THAT THIS KIND OF FUCKING BEHAVIOR IS ALRIGHT?! YES! YOU ALL ARE HIS FANS BUT SOME OF YOU ARE CROSSING THE DAMN LINE! I'D LIKE TO SEE ANY OF YOU LAY A FINGER ON HIM! IF YOU WANT A FUCKING AUTOGRAPH, THEN YOU SHOULD HAVE LINED UP AMD RESPECTED HIS PERSONAL SPACE!!", Jeongguk yelled as he was very much pissed off. As a result, the people backed away. You see, Jeongguk at their school acted like he didn't give a shit about anyone but with Taehyung and his friends, he's a whole lot different.

Taehyung stroked Jeongguk's hair and whispered, "It's okay. I'm fine. Thank you."

Jeongguk calmed down and the rest were quite surprised not like the two cared. He then grabbed Taehyung's hand and dragged him away. Outside of the school zone.

-

"Are you okay? No one touched you inappropriately, right? I only took notice of one person doing it. I shouldn't have agreed to letting you come", Jeongguk said very worried.

"They didn't. It's alright. I'm okay", Taehyung said.

"No, it isn't"

"Shh. It is, Koo. Don't worry. Why don't we walk around for a bit to get your mind off it? Near the school, I mean. I have a few minutes to spare", Taehyung said.

"Yeah. Sounds nice"

"And then... I hit my head with the stop sign", Taehyung finished. He was telling Jeongguk about his childhood experiences.

Jeongguk laughed and questioned, "Really, Tae? A stop sign?"

"Yup! Oh shit! I have to go or I'll be late!", Taehyung said, giving Jeongguk a hug and then running off.

"TAE WAIT!"
