Mr. Shallow || K. Taehyung

「Chapter 105」

For the rest of March and all throughout April, things have been nothing but sweet between the two of you. It started out with calling each other again every night as if you were a pair of new sweethearts; having conversations that would make you laugh, but make your heart swell too.

For dates, you would either take peaceful strolls in the park or go to each others house to watch a movie or play some games. Rainy days, used to be your least favorite, but soon became the opposite. On those days, he always had you huddled up against him, walking under one umbrella.

There was sex, but most times were cuddle times. Every time he had you wrapped up in his arms, you always pressed your ear against his chest, to listen to the fierce drumming of his heart. The heart that drummed only for you. Even kisses that were short and chaste, were like huge shots of his love.

Eventually, your friends were noticing how healthy your relationship had become again. Even Jungkook could see the change within Taehyung. Though, it's not like he totally accepted him. He'd still keep an eye over him at all times. But the Taehyung you once knew was no more. Instead, this version of him had come to stay.

"Jiyeong," you heard a soft and sweet call to you. "Jiyeong, wake up. It's time for school." But you didn't want to wake up yet. It just wasn't his proper way of waking you up. "I'll kiss you if you don't," he warned. But you kept silent. And what followed behind that silence, was a series of little pecks to your lips.

Just then, you eyes fluttered open. "Good morning," you said, a smile spread against your face. You caressed him by his cheeks and gently brought him back down for a longer kiss. As it deepened, his finger started to surf through your scalp and out to the ends of your locks.

When he pulled away, he chuckled. "You were awake, weren't you?"

You smiled as if you were innocent. "Maybe," you shrugged. You then sat yourself up. "I'll go take my shower and go get ready."

"Okay," he leaned over and pecked your nose before pulling away from you.

When you arrived at school, hand in hand, the usual attention was upon you. Stares of jealousy and whispers of hatred. But again, it was something you were used to already.

"Jiyeong, your laces are starting to untie."

"Hm?" When you looked down, you saw that one of your laces were indeed beginning to come undone. "Oh, thank--"

"I got it," he said, on his way down. Right in front of all those envious girls, Taehyung took to his knee and starting tying your laces. In a couple seconds, he looked up to you with a sweet smile. "All done." he then stood up and reached back out for your hand.

You started blushing, as you took his hand once again. After you thanked him, he leaned over, close to your face, and began rubbing his nose against yours lovingly. His affectionate actions just made you all the more shy.

"What's with all this public display, hm?" At the familiar, voice, the both of you looked over and found Park Jimin with his arm slung over Minji's.
