they arrived back
home in the early hours
of the evening.

twilight spilled across
the blooming roses in his friend's
front garden, their leaves
glistening with a sheen of
pinkish dust from the crouching
sun's rays, pouring whatever
warmth it possessed within
it's grasp down onto the pitch
earth before crumbling away
past the horizon and letting the
inky sky engulf the world
in a tender darkness.

jeongguk was tired,
taehyung knew this from his
heavy, half-hooded eyes and
his short one-worded replies
that he'd given him on the bus
journey home.

hoseok and yoongi had already
left, he'd told taehyung to heat
up the pasta he'd made for him
that afternoon, a tiny note on the
fridge with a small squiggle of a
smiley face that made the younger
man smile.

taehyung had told jeongguk to take a
shower whilst he put the dish in
the oven, gazing out of the
kitchen window at the moonlit
grass and the immaculate flowerbeds
and the small amateur nursery
where hobi grew his herbs and
beans. it was wholesome to say
the least.

he didn't want this
to end. he wanted this eternal
joy he felt raging in his heart
to burn forever, he needed the
warmth, craved it.

god, this
had to stop.

this guilt that
flickered in his head.

it was
irritation, he knew he shouldn't
be dismissing so easily but
he couldn't help it.

it was the pure moments
he spent with jeongguk that
let his toxic thoughts fade.

moments he spent with him
that felt like utter bliss at his
fingertips. he could sit with
him and talk to him and gaze
at him for an eternity.

he had
infinity at hands reach because
time had no known meaning
when he was in the boy's
presence.

it was all too perfect to
be true.

"smells good," the small
boy said, swinging his arms
at his side as he awkwardly
took his seat at the dining
table.

taehyung tired not to
smile at the sight of
his fluffy pink pajamas.

"thanks to chef hoseok,
yes." taehyung mused.
"i can't cook for shit."

"language, taehyung."
jeongguk teased, kicking
his leg back and forth.
he looked at him with an
innocent glint in his eye,
head resting in his palms
as he watched the older
wander about the kitchen.

god, where did he find
this boy?

"alright, i'm a hypocrite,
nothing new there."
taking the piping
hot dish out of the
oven and placing it carefully
on the cooling wrack on the
table, he hoped jeongguk
wouldn't dwell on that
sentence longer than
necessary. jeongguk dug
in pretty quickly, spooning
the pasta onto his plate.
