Taehyung's hand landed on my knee, the contact branding the skin under
my jeans. God, I could feel him all around me. If I relaxed my spine, I'd
snuggle right into him. That warm palm squeezed my thigh.I kept losing my focus, and now, Minji seemed to be waiting for me to
say something.
"Oh yeah." I recapped as fast as I could. I needed to get out of here. Off
Taehyung. The position we were in was too distracting. In a very, very, very bad way. "Erm. Yes, crazy. Oh, you bet! This is all super crazy," I said,
squirming in Taehyung's lap as I unsuccessfully tried to make my way out of the man-sized black hole that had sucked me in."It is crazy because I am super crazy. Crazy about him, that is." I squirmed some more, realizing I might be stuck somewhere between his large thighs. Keep talking. "Like, so crazily in love, it's even crazy, you know what I mean? So crazy-"
"I think she got it," my fake boyfriend whispered in my ear, sending a stupid shiver rushing across my whole body.I kept shifting further in his lap, ignoring how everything I felt
underneath me-or my ass, more specifically-was solid and warm. No,
hot. It was hot. Muscles upon muscles upon more muscles. Some of them
becoming harder with every useless effort I made.Oh my gosh. Oh my god. Was that ... no. It couldn't be. Taehyung couldn't be ... aroused.
Desperate, I tried to propel myself off him one more time, obtaining a
little grunt from Taehyung's lips. It landed on the back of my neck as a puff of air."Stop," he breathed in my ear. "That's not helping with the situation."
I immediately obeyed, forcing my body to relax into him. Okay, I have
this. Think of it as a chair. A throne. Not Taehyung. Just a hard man-sized
throne.I gave my cousin a fake smile. "So, what are you doing here, Minji?"
"Oh, I was going to stay with a friend for the wedding weekend, but the
bathroom in his apartment flooded or something, and I have no choice but
to sleep here instead," she explained with a little wave. "I'm sure you
thought you had the place to yourselves, huh?" She wiggled her eyebrows again. "I swear I won't be in the way. You won't even notice I'm here."There was only one way we wouldn't notice Minji snooping around, and that included hard-core narcotics.
"Great. Well, we should really unpack and let you do the same," I announced from my position on my Taehyung throne. I cleared my throat."Yeah, all right. Let's do that," I added, neither Taehyung nor me moving. I
cleared my throat very loudly. "Don't you think we should get going, Tiger?"
Before I could ask, Taehyung's big hands were on my waist, and I was
lifted off his lap and then up in the air. With shaky legs, I landed in front of my cousin.Whoa, okay. So, it could have been that easy. Taehyung-who had mysteriously regained his usual agility-followed suit, leaving behind him the spring and wood disaster.
"I haven't introduced myself." Taehyung stretched out one of the hands that had been wrapped around my waist a little more than a second ago. The one hand that had squeezed my thigh. "Jeoneun taehyung-ieyo. mannaseo bangabseubnida." (I'm Taehyung. Pleased to meet you.)
My cousin-who I suspected had already requested all of Taehyung's
available information from my mother-took his hand and pulled him to her. "A geuligo hangugmaldo haseyo! gippeum-eun nae geos-ida, yaeya."( Oh and speak Korean! The pleasure is mine, darling.)She planted one kiss on each of his cheeks. Yeah, I was sure she hadn't been lying when she said the pleasure of meeting him was all hers.
After my cousin released Taehyung, who looked a little dumbfounded, she
engulfed me in a hug too. "Come here, Cousin. I have kisses for you too."
And she added in a whisper so only I could hear it, " I salam eodie sumgyeoss-eo?" (Where were you hiding this man?)
