In Between || Taejinkook

Eleven

Taehyung didn't want to disturb the other Alpha while he was absorbed in the world he belonged to. It would be written as a sin if he put a stop on that.

The way the short Alpha was holding his headphones with both hands, listening to a piece of music he created himself with nothing but depth and to put his last touches on, it was just mesmerizing.

The way Yoongi would sway his head to the music with closed eyes, in total peace had Taehyung as a part of his world in that moment, even though the younger Alpha couldn't even hear it.

Taehyung crossed his arms over his chest and leaned against the door frame of the producer's studio. He waited until Yoongi opened his eyes and acknowledged his presence with a smile.

"I hope I didn't keep you here for too long." the older let out as he removed his headphones. He knew the younger's habit every time he visited him. That was the mere reason as to why a busy man like Taehyung would only pay him visits late at night, so he could await until he was given the permission.

"No, my feet didn't get blisters this time!" Taehyung let out jokingly, making the other chuckle silently. The two engulfed each other in a friendly hug before they sat across on the only two existing chairs in the studio.

"How's everyone? I haven't seen you since your wedding. Things are fine with your husband, hmm?" Yoongi asked his questions as he poured both shots of whiskey.

"Everyone's fine. About my husband, he's a nice guy. Too shy if something I'm asked to criticize." Taehyung replied and reached forward to get his drink from the older.

"How's his relationship with Su? Does he accept him at the very least a bit of his own? And let's not forget the one and only Jungkook!" Yoongi let out the last part with a bit of mockery before downing his shot in one go.

Taehyung stared as the other scrunched his nose up and gulped his saliva forcefully, all coming effects of the bitter drink. He was speechless for a while, and Yoongi didn't seem to be the one that make the conversation last by himself.

"His relationship with Su is honestly a lot better than what I myself predicted. My son has got a liking for him, too soon.

About Jungkook, as I said before he's too shy to even let out a word of complaint. To be truthful here man, he and Jungkook are the main reasons I needed to see you tonight." Taehyung said while twirling the liquid around in his glass, not intending to drink it yet.

"For Jungkook, I may be able to guess things and talk some sense into him, but I don't know about your husband. He appeared kind and mild in your wedding, but these are not signs to tell me to approach him this fast!" Yoongi uttered, his eyes were moving with the younger's hand.

"I don't want that kind of help, Yoongi. I don't know much about marks. Since you and Hoseok are the only couple I know that share mate marks, I need you to talk me through it." Taehyung lifted his gaze from the whiskey to give all his concentration to the older's face.

"Do you really want to drink that? If you don't, just give it to me already!" Yoongi wanted to snatch the drink from the younger, however Taehyung was quick enough to lock his fingers around the glass tightly.

"I need you and myself sober for this conversation. Once it's over, we can get drunk together!" Even though the words didn't hold much of strength in literal meaning, the way Taehyung uttered them could send shivers down a stranger's spines.

"Ok, I get it. You need this painfully. Mate marks mean somehow different for the dominant and submissive, or at least this is how our society defines them." Even when Yoongi tried to keep a neutral expression, his hatred towards the idea crept its way back into his words.
