Taeyong's pov

Jaehyun and I walked through the mall happily, hand in hand. We were just enjoying each other's presence as we shopped. I lagged behind slightly as my eyes were caught by a deep maroon suit. My eyes lit up as I turned towards Jaehyun.

"Okay, I don't know if you had school dances in the 1800s, but nowadays we do. Prom is in a week, Jaehyun, and neither of us have suits." I pointed out. His dimples appeared as he gave me a knowing smile.

"Is this your way of asking me to prom?" Jaehyun laughed melodiously. He pecked my forehead sweetly then dragged me into the store. I smiled to myself as he pulled us in front of the maroon suit I was gazing at.

"Is this the suit you want to wear?" Jaehyun asked. He turned away from me in search of a salesman. He waved one down, then turned back towards me.

"Actually, I thought you'd look good wearing it." I smiled widely, then directed my attention to the older salesman.

"How may I help you, boys?" He asked kindly, his eyes scanning over us. His gaze flicked from our faces to our interlocked hands. He grimaced then looked back at our faces.

"Are you two.. together?" He asked, his face taught with disgust. His eyes lingered over my visible neck hickeys, then he looked at us disappointedly.

"No-"

"Yes, yes we are, but we are also customers here, sir. We came in here to buy two suits, but if you can't handle love, then I guess we'll go elsewhere. This is a big mall!" I loudly cut Jaehyun off, making sure other patrons could hear us. I squeezed his hand reassuringly when he tried to pull away. I placed a kiss on his left cheek and turned back to see the red with embarrassment face of the salesman.

"Just hurry up and buy your suits. I don't need your disgusting gay rubbing off on our clothing." He spoke. He turned on his heel, getting ready to leave.

"Sir, we need help still. I need my boyfriend fitted for this suit. Then, I need one for myself, which I'll let him pick out." I then thought a little about what I said.

"Within reason, Jung! I don't need to go into prom as a rainbow or a spiral!" I exclaimed. My free hand pointed at him knowingly. He laughed and shook his head, mumbling a quiet 'dang it.'

"Alright, lets just get this over with. Follow me, please." The salesman spoke hesitantly. He pulled a cloth tape measurer out of his back pocket and began measuring Jaehyun. Once he had all of the numbers he needed, he left to grab the suit.

"Again, Jae, it isn't the 1800s, people are usually more accepting, but that guy just wasn't. Please don't take anything he said to heart, okay? I love you, Jaehyun." I spoke calmingly to the vampire and stole a kiss from his lips. He smiled down at me crookedly.

"I love you, so much." Jaehyun smiled softly at me, his dimples showing cutely. I laughed and poked both of the indents. Jaehyun grabbed both of my hands with a grin.

"I caught you!" Jaehyun sang. The salesman coughed behind us to get our attention. He held the maroon suit I liked, then passed it to Jaehyun. Jaehyun thanked the man and left to try it on. He stayed in the fitting room for a few minutes, but came back out in his normal clothes.

"It fit well, but I'm not letting you see me in it until the night of prom." Jaehyun said happily, but I noticed his eyes were sad. He was messing with the hem of his shirt with his fingers and kept his gaze on the floor.

  "Alright, let's get your suit." The worker said. Jaehyun turned on his heel and walked to the wide selection of suits. He grabbed a white suit and passed it to the worker.

  "Is this the one?" The worker asked, his voice sounding exhausted. Jaehyun nodded and handed him the suit. The worker took my measurements quickly and left to grab a suit.

"Jaehyun, I'm so clumsy! The white suit won't stay pristine for even an hour!" I whined and grabbed his arm. He pecked my hairline and pulled away with a smile.

"But it'll look amazing with your white hair! Come on, Tae, trust me!" Jaehyun exclaimed once the worker brought me my suit. I graciously took the suit from his arms and quickly left to the fitting room. I pulled the suit on and marveled at how perfectly it fit to my torso. It showed off my shoulders well and my thin waist. I smirked imagining Jaehyun's reaction.

I took off the suit and placed it back on its hanger. I laid the suit over my arm and stepped out of the changing room. I grabbed Jaehyun's suit from the salesman man walked to the check out. Jaehyun quickly slid his card to pay before I could even blink. I pouted and followed Jaehyun out of the store.

"Taeyong, quit pouting, baby. You can pay for lunch if it bothers you so much." Jaehyun laughed sweetly and kissed my lips. He pulled away and stared into my eyes. I quickly pulled him back down and kissed him again, feeling addicted to his contact. Jaehyun begrudgingly pulled his lips apart from mine.

"We're in public, Tae. Don't you care about your good image?" Jaehyun asked worriedly. His eyes scanned my own, which I was sure could show stars. I shook my head and pecked his cheek.

"That's all it is, Jaehyun; an image. Why not let the world know I've always been homosexual? And what better way than showing off my boyfriend?" I grinned at the taller. He smiled sheepishly at me and squeezed my hand softly.

"Come on, let's go eat before we head back home." Jaehyun proudly kissed my cheek and lead me to the food court. I laughed and allowed myself to be dragged away.
