Trouble in Paradise | Yeongyu

"Then my cheek?"

"You're relentless." He leaned up and kissed his cheek before walking back to the car.

Yeonjun had a large dopey grin on his face for the rest of the day.

"This is a new look on you." Soobin said as Yeonjun happily typed away at his computer.

"Beomgyu kissed me," he pointed to his cheek. "Here."

"Ohhhh, so that's why you're giggling and kicking your feet? How are things going with him?"

"We are still taking it slow. He...he won't wear his ring though."'

"Do you blame him?"

"We're still technically married."

"Yeah but he wants a divorce. You haven't fully proved yourself yet so he's still resistant to your efforts." He leaned on his desk. "But...Beomgyu is madly in love with you. You know that."

"...what if I waited too long?"

Soobin chuckled. "You did. He tried to divorce you."

Yeonjun glared at him. "I'm glad you find this amusing."

"That's not it. I'm just glad things are going well." He patted his back. "Just focus on winning him back."

He walked away and Yeonjun went back to working. When lunch came around he walked to Beomgyu's office to take him to lunch.

When he walked into his office the room got quiet. Everyone was staring at him and he awkwardly looked around before clearing his throat and asking...

"Umm, where's Beomgyu?"

Ryujin walked over and pointed to the printer room. "Over there."

"Thank you." He walked over and leaned on the doorway looking at Beomgyu.

He was staring off into space, hugging himself a little in his white sweater that was starting to slide off his shoulder. He seemed to notice Yeonjun as he suddenly looked over with a small gasp.

"Yeonjun what the hell are you doing here?"

"You're so beautiful." He walked over and pulled his sweater up on his shoulder. "Are you cold?"

"I'm fine." He murmured and touched his head.

"What's wrong? He seem...a little down."

Beomgyu looked up at him. His big, brown puppy-like eyes staring into his own.

"Did you come to take me for lunch?"

"I did." He said with a huge grin. "Wanna go?"

He hummed with a nod. They left together and Beomgyu ignored the stares. As they stepped into the elevator Taehyun was standing by the vending machine staring at him. They locked eyes as the doors closed and he looked down at his feet.

Yeonjun noticed.

And he didn't say anything about it.

They sat for lunch together at a nearby cafe. Beomgyu quiet sipped his coffee and sighed as the feeling of the warm liquid running down his throat.

"...he confessed. Said that I shouldn't keep trying to be married to you, that you didn't love me. Basically that I should give up on this entire thing. That I should give up on us."

Yeonjun stared at him. He wasn't shocked, Taehyun was going to make a move sooner or later.

"Then he tried to kiss me."

"He what?" He stood up. "I'll fucking kill him."

Beomgyu suddenly grabbed his wrist. "I already hit him."

"Wait what?"

"I hit him...I feel so bad." He relaxed and rubbed his head. "It was an accident but I meant it and I didn't want to hurt his feelings but I'm...you know, me and you..."

Yeonjun sat back down but this time he sat next to him. "We're still married and you still love me."

Beomgyu looked away from him. "I keep getting hurt by every guy I let in. He saw our relationship as my weakness and tried to use it to get me. Maybe I lead him on without realizing it."

"What he did isn't your fault. You made it clear didn't you."

"But maybe he still thought he had a chance because we were close and he knew about the divorce. I just feel like an idiot."

"Hey," he gave him a small smiled and caressed his cheek. "I know a thing or two about being an idiot and you're definitely not one. You were vulnerable, he thought he had a chance but he doesn't. Don't let this ruin your day, have lunch with me and think about what you want to watch for movie night. Okay?"

Beomgyu smiled back and nodded. "Right, okay. Thank you Yeonjun."

"You're welcome."

Everyone.....Beomgyu is confiding in Yeonjun and it's not because he's having a falling out with Taehyun...
