Pretend | Taegyu ✓

●The Atmosphere Has Changed●

"Is it just me or does the air feel a bit strange now?" Kai asked as soon as he cautiously stepped into the apartment, turning his head left and right so that he doesn't find Taehyun whacking him on the head. 

Soobin sniffed, his head tilting in confusion. "The apartment doesn't reek of sex. Surprising." He received a slap on his back by Yeonjun. 

Yeonjun slowly walked towards the bedroom where they locked Beomgyu and Taehyun. He turned the key into the keyhole and opened the door, peeking his head through the door. He was left confused when he saw that the two weren't in the room anywhere. 

"What?" Yeonjun muttered to himself in disbelief, entering the room. "Where did they go?" 

Soobin entered the room, frantic and worried. "Did they jump off the fucking balcony?!" He opened the door to the balcony and leaned down to look below the railing. 

Kai sighed. "They would of course not jump off from the balcony, idiot- agh!" His statement suddenly got cut off with a pained groan. 

He didn't even turn around to look what it was and who it was.

He was put into a headlock by his one and only best friend, Kang Taehyun. 

"You think you're so slick huh?" Taehyun gritted his teeth, tightening his arm around Kai's neck. "You locked us in for almost a fucking day."

"I had- no choice, okay? Ugh! That hurts-" Kai repeatedly slapped Taehyun's forearm to let him go and when he finally did, Kai inhaled a large amount of air in his lungs, his knees on the verge of collapsing. "Shit, you should stop going to the gym."

Taehyun scowled, his fist in the air as if he was mimicking that he would punch him but it was just a threat, he would never do that anyways. 

Soobin giggled, but his smile dropped when he got whacked on the head. "You think this shit is funny?" He turned his head to the side to see Beomgyu rolling his eyes. 

"In our defense, you were chewing our heads off with y'all's baseless bickering. We needed to end that once in for all." Yeonjun stepped in, crossing his arms with a smirk. 

"But hey, it seems like our plan did work." Kai carefully said, eyeing the two upside down to notice if there was some kind of change between those two. And he smiled in satisfaction when he saw a flush of red shading the two's ears. 

"So what happened?" Yeonjun wiggled his eyebrows and in Taehyun's defense, he looked like a sewer rat who had finally found some bread to eat.

Oddly specific, I know. 

"Nothing happened." Beomgyu spun Yeonjun around and ushered him out of the room. Taehyun doing the same with Kai and Soobin. 

"Hey! Tell us what happened!" Kai exclaimed but no avail, he was still being kicked out of the room. 

"That's my room, you bastards!" Soobin cried out and Beomgyu shut the door on his face. 

Finally, some peace. 

Taehyun and Beomgyu both slid down the door, seemingly exhausted of their friends' antics. They both looked at each other and cracked a smile.

It was currently two-thirty am in the morning and Yeonjun, Soobin and Kai found themselves sitting at the table in the kitchen. They were staring at the two people sleeping in the living room on mattresses. 

The three frowned at the sight which was Beomgyu having an arm under Taehyun's head, which the younger used as a pillow while his own arm rested around Beomgyu's abdomen.
