My Ideal Type Is Kang Taehyun | TaeGyu

Double update :)

"Why are you allowing Beomgyu to pretend that he likes you?"

"What!?" 

Now, Taehyun wasn't the type to lose his composure this quick but that particular question was totally uncalled for.

"I m–mean no, why would I do—"

"It's okay. You don't have to deny it anymore." Soobin said nonchalantly. "I had my doubts because Beomgyu is an open book but your reaction tells it all. Besides, I had accidentally heard you guys at that party, you know, when Beomgyu cornered you and told you to get out and stuff. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to eavesdrop."

Taehyun's shoulders slumped defeatedly, yep there was no scope of lying anymore. Soobin knew more than enough to come to that conclusion.

The blue-haired male patiently waited for an answer which never came, never stopping to observe Taehyun. He sighed as he could sense what was going on. "By any chance, is he doing this to make Yeonjun jealous?"

Taehyun chewed his lower lip, looking down at his shoes, and then nodded, causing Soobin to let out a breath he was holding but not the annoying kind.

"What about you, Taehyun? You love him, don't you?"

"P–Please don't tell him." Taehyun turned to Soobin with pleading eyes and dang, the older's heart ached for him. He reached for Taehyun's head to give a soft pat.

"Hyung, I admit I think what you guys did was wrong but it's not that I want to break you two and trust me the situation was just so complicated that I had to agree." Taehyun rambled on with his eyes getting teary. As a concerned brother, Soobin pulled the younger to his chest.

"Hey, it's okay. You don't have to explain anything." Soobin rubbed comforting circles behind his back and the way Taehyun grabbed onto him to let out the tears he'd been containing, and the older knew he was seeking comfort. "Knowing Beomgyu, it's only fair for him to try to get Yeonjun back, in fact, I was a bit shocked when he said he'd forgiven us that easily. And I'm glad you're the one to have his back because I know no one else can have patience like you, no one else can love him like you."

"But he doesn't love me, he will never," Taehyun mumbled with his hoarse voice.

"You don't know about that, Taehyun-ah. He might be fussy but he has to fall for you when he sees you're way more than what he wants. Don't lose hope, and just be yourself."

Taehyun, in response, only whimpered.

"But tell me if he hurts you. I mightn't hit him or something but I can make him understand how amazing you are, and how amazing he would be with you." Soobin tried swaying the younger side-to-side but failed because of the small space so he just put his cheek above the younger's red fluffy head. "You and Hyuka are more precious to me than you think, I hope you know that."

Taehyun wasn't in a state to form coherent words, yet he wanted to respond to Soobin; he wanted to tell that Soobin was too sweet for his own good, and the moment he was going to do that, he heard someone informing them that the door was opening and then that's what happened.

In a span of minutes, he heard murmurs of people outside and that didn't let him tear away from the older, he didn't want to be seen as a crybaby. It was the moment he heard Hueningkai and Yeonjun's concerned voices when he felt a bit safe and pulled away, his mind automatically missing his most loved one. And so without even wasting a second, he searched for Beomgyu instantly.

The raven-haired had turned away to leave, and that only increased the void in his heart.
