Chapter 2: A Little too Tender

Taeyong's phone rang as he reached it from his table . After seeing the caller ID, he excitedly picked it up.

"Hey Bbang" The voice rang from the other side as Taeyong instinctively smiled.

"Morning Yuta" 

" So I decided to go to the mall today since I also need to stack up for groceries too. You up for it?"

"Sure. When are we going?"

"I'll come pick you up at 10" 

"See you then"

Heading towards the shower, Taeyong lathered himself in his freesia and mint soap while smiling at the thought of spending the whole day with Yuta. Taeyong specifically chose that scent for the day since Yuta loved it and he would cling onto him like a koala.  

 Having fifteen minutes of time remaining after the shower, Taeyong sifted through his closet as he tried to find a simple but fashionable outfit. He glanced at his reflection in the mirror as he put his brown jeans and black button up shirt on. Fluffing up his hair, he sprayed his signature freesia perfume and waited for Yuta at the front porch.

After a few minutes, a familiar blue Hyundai Elentra pulled up in front of his house as Taeyong eagerly entered it.  A prominent scent of pinewood hit his senses and Taeyong deeply inhaled it.

 It was Yuta's favorite scent and whenever Taeyong smelled it, it reminded him of Yuta.

"Are you ready to go?" Yuta asked as he leaned in and kissed Taeyong's cheeks. 

Taeyong nodded and Yuta started driving to the mall that they usually visit.

They spent the whole day in the mall shopping and eating as they enjoyed a day to themselves. After a few hours, both Taeyong and Yuta already had bags in either of their hands and a stomach full of sushi they ate at a buffet. It was after winning a plush toy at the arcade that Taeyong decided it was late and they should head home. The sky was already pitch black already and fewer cars occupied the roads.

"Why don't you sleep over tonight?" Yuta asked as he back hugged Taeyong on the elevator. "We could finish binge watching 'Money Heist' "

"Will your dad agree on it?"

"He's chill with everything. Just as we don't make too much noise"

"Ok then" Taeyong happily hugged the Totoro plushy that Yuta won for him and nodded. 

Yuta drove home with Taeyong as they enjoyed a silence drive with breeze blowing their hair and the empty street stretching in front of them. After Yuta pulled up on the driveway, Taeyong opened the boot to unload the groceries they bought. They quietly entered the house as it was pitch black so Taeyong assumed that Mr. Jung was already asleep. He helped Yuta organize the groceries as he bent down to stack the cans in a cabinet. Yuta smirked at Taeyong's position and slapped Taeyong's butt as the sound of it echoed in the kitchen.
