Jeongguk pulled off his giant hoodie, making his way over to the bathroom, immediately closing and locking the door behind him.

He's never been this sweaty in his entire life as he just ran the entire way home -- meeting Taehyung also had a part of that of course.

He actually made it home before his father woke up from his hangover.
He just unlocked the door and rushed up to his room, his mother not even asking him any questions about where he was.

After his father woke up, he came into Jeongguk's room, checking if he was there with a blank stare, slamming the door close behind him right after.

Jeongguk turned on the shower, taking off the rest of his clothes while the water started to warm up.

He took his phone, putting on Taehyung's album but not turning the volume too loud, so his father wouldn't hear.

Gguk stepped into the shower, feeling the warm water dripping on his freezing skin from the cold tempature outside.

Closing his eyes, he enjoyed the sensation of the calming melody of 'Purple you' and the water warming up his body.

He picked up the shampoo, squirting a small amount on him palm and working it into his hair, washing it off after.

Just a couple minutes later he unwillingly turned off the shower, knowing that they don't have that much money at the moment since they had to pay for Hyeree's hospital room and surgerys.

Sighing, he stepped out of the shower, taking one towel, wrapping it around his waist.

Jeongguk looked into the mirror, noticing his brown hair softly fading to his natural black hair again.

His eyes wandered down to his torso, arms and wrists, seeing the multiple bruises scattered on them, touching the newest one and hissing at the pain.

Before his eyes started to water, he quickly shook his head, turning off the music and noticing the few notifications he had.

TT

Hey Jeonggukie

I said ill text you so...

Im on my way to another
schedule and started thinking
about you

I hope i didnt make things worse

Jeongguk smiled, heart pumping a little faster.
He looked at the username, changing it to Tae♡ to leave TT behind since it left him with a bad feeling, knowing it was a fake persona in a way.
He made his way over to his bed, laying down before going to type a response.

Tae♡

You didnt make things worse..

Just a little

Getting used to???

After all im talking to you know

You

I'm just me dont think
of me differently

Im a genuine guy who wants
to get to know a gorgeous
boy like you better

Gguk sighed, not knowing what to text back.
He also wanted to get to know Taehyung better since what can he say -- he's beyond beautiful and what he's seen of his personality so far was also attractive to him.

Of course i also find you
attractive

But u must be very busy

Like how could we ever meet

And i also wouldnt wanna cause
you a scandal or anything

Well

I have nothing in my
schedule tomorrow actually

So i guess

We could meet up

Gguk almost fell out of his bed after Taehyung's spontaneous suggestion which made him incredibly nervous.

Less than 24 hours was a pretty short time to mentally prepare to have a date -- with Kim Taehyung which he would probably never be ready for in the first place if he's being completely honest.

Oo uhm well

I

I have nothing to do anyways
so i guess i mean sure

Jeongguk stared at the ceiling above his bed, phone still in his hand, confused about himself.

Did he really say yes to that? Where did that sudden rush of really wanting to meet Taehyung again come from?

Great :)

So do you just wanna
hang out and watch a
movie or something?

Then no press can see us

U would just need to be careful
outside of my apartment

"Hanging out at his apartment.." Jeongguk whispered in disbelief. So many things went through his mind at that moment he thought he would be getting a headache.

Also i would pick you up
too if you want to?

Getting picked up by Taehyung on a date had sounded like a dream come true to Jeongguk but when it actually did, it made him more nervous than happy or euphoric.

Yeah yeah you can

uhm just pick me up from
jeongja station ?

Okay!

U good with 3pm?

Yes :)

Okay jeonggukie im
looking forward to our date

Just the word date almost made him choke on his saliva.

Me too Tae :)

He put his phone to the side and breathed in deeply, trying to calm his nerves and heart.

So he was going to have a date with Kim Taehyung and he was going to pick him up and they are going to go to his apartment and watch a movie and all that was totally normal --yeah really normal.

As if it went automatically his hand went to pinch himself to make sure all this was reality and not just some twisted and very long dream.

"Ouch." He squealed out as he might have pinched himself with a little too much power. "So this IS really happening." He exclaimed, now actually falling out of his bed on the hard floor with a thud.

After a couple seconds he lifted himself up, groaning, making his way to the closet and picking out some clothes to wear, putting them right on.

"Jeongguk? Is everything okay?" He heard his mother's voice as she knocked on the door. "I heard a loud bang."

"Everything's good, mom." Gguk sighed. His mother seems to care about him when actually nothing bad happens but when he gets crushed by his father she doesn't care at all.

"Okay if you say so. Dinner is ready in a couple of minutes. We are eating together today." And with that he heard foodsteps going down the stairs, not even waiting for an answer from him.

Gguk despised eating with his family, mostly with his father who would even criticise the way he eats.

"I'll just think about what to wear tomorrow this evening- and also what i'll tell mom about where i'll be." He took a big breath, opening his door and making his way downstairs, his head only full of tomorrows plans.
