Chapter 21

I woke up feeling hot and sweaty. I'd usually be annoyed that I'm in this position so early in the morning, when my alarm hadn't even gone off. It was still dark outside so what was I doing up? I started moving around restless in my pillow getting ready to groan in full frustration but I stopped. This morning I couldn't quite do that. All I could do was watch the boy sleeping next to me, soundly. I smiled. I couldn't help but.

It's been about 2 years since we've been together. It's been less than that since we moved in together. Everyone has been moving on with their lives.

Yoongi Hyung has been working on the production company that hired him, he was the main producer now. He made sure Hobi Hyung had a job there. The soulmates can never really leave each other for too long. Jin Hyung moved back to Seoul, and he works under Joon hyungs father - being the lawyer for his company. Joon Hyung never wanted to work for his dad, hence he became a lawyer. Joon hyung and his Dad both thought Jin Hyung was the better fit. More than being a good lawyer I was still convinced he got people out of things from being really pretty. Don't you think others just listen to pretty people? Joon Hyung is great. He left the private law firm that hired him and chose to work for the government instead. As he put it- it wasn't about the pay but the satisfaction of helping people who really needed it. Jimin Hyung finished school a semester before us, he's still in search for a job. He needs something genuine and perfect as he put it. I think he should open his own dance studio.

Then there's us, we're still here in school. It's been different, it's been good for us. So far the only people that know about us are the hyungs and my mom. They love and support us fully. Taehyungie is terrified of his parents finding out, I'm even more terrified, but he wants to let them know soon. We're about to graduate soon, and are going on our own, together of course.

We don't sit and talk about the future much, I want to. I really really want to. We have a plan on telling my dad, and his parents when everything is done with and we've graduated and can stand on our own. For now we decided to stay in Seoul. Joon Hyung got jobs ready for both of us at his fathers company. I know my Dad wouldn't be too pleased with that but I needed a back up. I have a feeling of what's going to happen when I tell him so I don't even plan on going back to Daegu where my family is.

I have the worst feeling about it.

I don't know what's going to happen to Tae and me. I want to ask him. I had the urge to wake him up right now and ask him. I couldn't though, not now. For now I wanted to stop thinking so much and just admire him.

He always sleeps on his chest, his face always facing the side I am on. I always wondered if that was a protective thing, like he wanted to make sure I was okay even when he was sleeping? I reached over to move his hair out of his face. The way his cheeks squished against the pillow was so cute. I giggled and tried to poke at his face, earning a groan from him. I didn't wanna wake him up so I decided to get off from bed and go to the bathroom.

I totally forgot how naked I was under the covers. I guess that explains why I am sweaty and sticky this morning. I look over at the time, it's 4 am! How am I ever gonna sleep again. After using the bathroom I laid back down, only to have my favorite boy move closer to me as if he sensed that I left for a bit. I put my arm out and he rolled into it like clockwork, and held onto me tightly. I felt the heat from his body and yawned. I sleep very easily when I'm held, so I did.

Waking up in the morning being peppered with kisses was fun. I smiled being in the comfort of my man, knowing full well exactly who it was by the warmth of his body.

"Hello there!" He finally said when he realized I was waking up

"Good morning baby!"

"Good morning love!"

Love is what he called me now. I don't know when I picked up on baby and he leaned more toward love. I remember how 'baby' made my heart do cartwheels hearing it for the first time, 'love' nearly took my heart out of my chest.

"Ready for the last day of class?"

"I really am!" I opened my eyes fully, taking in the beauty that was in front of me

"We really are done huh? How did that happen?" He poked my cheeks noticing how much I was staring at him. He did that. I always think it's his indication of being shy.

"Well first of all I forced you to study, that's how!" I felt a playful slap land on my chest as soon as I said that. I giggled not regretting messing with him one bit

"Okay but we're adults! We'll graduate soon!"

"Tae, babe, isn't that scary though?" My smile disappeared as I said that

"Why? It's exciting!"

"Well it's scary to me!" It came out tougher than what I originally planned. I sat up in bed now and he followed me - looking a bit concerned

"Why is it scary?"

"Cause! Remember what we were gonna do after we graduate?"

"Yeah...."

"So you didn't forget?"

"How can I Kook!"

"So how are you okay? I'm nervous as hell Tae! Our parents are like gonna disown us! I mean my dads gonna deem me a disappointment or some shit and throw me out and make sure my mom and siblings won't talk to me again. And-"

"Kook! Love! It'll be okay!"

I let out a big sigh, "How can you be so sure?" I groaned

"Because! It's us! We're in this together love! It's always me and you!"

"But I wouldn't want your parents to disown you cause of me. I'd feel guilty."

"How do you think I felt when I found out your mom knew? Even though she didn't know it was me, I knew it was cause of me. We're two men in love! It's always gonna be like that. Why do you think we walk around as if we're the best of buds when we're out and about? Because we can't hold hands and cuddle in public! I can't even kiss you!That's always gonna be our reality."

"I know, I am okay with that. I'm just scared about telling our parents."

"We don't have to, we can hold off!"

"Until when, can't do it forever!"

"Well I know that but I don't want you to stress out about it either."

"Ahhhh!" I groaned laying back down on my pillow

"Love!"

"Mhm"

"What are you thinking!"

"We should sign off on that apartment that we found! It's small but enough for us!"

"Yeah? What else are you thinking?"

"We should take Joon hyungs job offer! I mean we may get sick of each other from seeing each other too much and all, but it'll be nice!"

"Yeah!" He laid back down with me now softly giggling, "what else?"

"We should tell our parents! And take whatever is coming at us. It's so freaking scary but I think we should get it over with."

"Yeah? You sure?"

"I really am!"

"Then we can do that love!"

"What do we say to them?"

"We can start with mine!" He said smiling, "you know what I'd say to them?" I nodded my head no to the question. "I would say, hey mom and dad. I have been dating the most amazing person for the past two years. This person has seen the worst I have to offer and loved me regardles. I love him. Yes, him! I like a man! Never thought I would!" He giggled, shyly looking down, "I didn't realize I'd like a man, I know you guys didn't think so either, and I know he wasn't planning on being with a man either - but here we all are. You know him and love him too, Mom! It's Jungkook! I understand if you don't support us and hate me but it doesn't change the fact that I would love to spend the rest of my life with only him..... or something like that!"

"Hyung! You can't say something like that randomly, and expect me to nod along. You totally have me flustered!"

He smiled, jumping me so he can land a kiss on me. Sometimes when he's really excited his kisses get a little aggressive.

"I haven't heard 'Hyung' in a while!"

"But like you'd just wanna spend the rest of your life with me? Even if they say no?"

"Yeah!"  he pecked my cheeks this time

"But they're you're family!"

"If they're my family, they'd understand and love me regardless, no?"

"Mhm! But still! Isn't that sad?"

"I have you! You're my family now! So it's not like I lose my family cause I know you're always gonna be there! It's always gonna be us! Screw the rest of them!"

I couldn't help but tear up!

"Are you like proposing or something? What the hell is this?" I turned around to wipe the tears that escaped out of my eyes hoping he doesn't catch it.

"No kook!" He grabbed my hands and pulled it towards him in hopes to get me to turn back around. Which worked. He started wiping my tears for me. "I wouldn't propose to you while we're both naked in bed, morning breath straight on! Ha oh goodness! I'm saying that I would one day! When you don't expect it and it'll be romantic and shit. You'd marry me, wouldn't you?"

"This is all too much! I literally just woke up!" I started bawling now

"Ah crap, I forgot you're not a morning person!" He laughed peppering me with kisses as he did

"Tae!" I didn't add the Hyung as much these days, it felt wrong to. There's nothing about him that deemed older brother to me. "Of course I will! You know I'll never say no to you!"

"I know!" He smiled

"So when will you ask me?" I teased, "I mean for real for real!"

"Alright! I've already talked too much. I must still be a little delirious from last night!"

"Why what happened last night?" I acted confused

"Don't make me bring it up. I may never walk again!"

"I still am confused on what you're talking about." I was acting like a complete fool now, it was fun teasing him. He got up off the bed sitting up. "But like an estimate!"  I added bringing up the topic he was trying to escape from

"Shut up Kook!" he got up off the bed walking towards the bathroom now.

"Well just make sure my nails are done!" I hollered at him giggling as he disappeared. I couldn't help it, I had to make light of the situation. What actually just happened just now? I was so busy wondering if he worried the way I did, but he didn't worry at all. He was ready to start living his life now... with me in it.
