Stigma Love's Algorithm [ A BTS x Reader Poly ]

Chapter 66: A House, A Home, A Promise 🔥

The city lights still glow faintly through the curtains, painting Taehyung's bare back in a soft silver hue.

I trace lazy circles on his skin as he draws random shapes on my hipbone, both of us caught somewhere between the afterglow and the quiet comfort of the night.

His soft hum breaks the silence. "So... we did it."

I tilt my head up from where it rests on his chest. "Did what?"

He grins, eyes twinkling even in the low light. "Romantic and Passionate Connection. Both. In one night."

I let out a breathy laugh, nuzzling closer. "Yeah, we kinda... speed-ran that, huh?"

Tae chuckles. "Do you think the app glitched? Like, should we call customer support?"

I giggle, pressing a kiss to his collarbone. "Oh, I'm sure tech support will get right on that."

His laughter rumbles beneath me, and we fall into a comfortable silence before he smirks, voice teasing.

"You realize Joon-hyung and Jin-hyung are going to lose it when they find out."

"Oh, they're gonna flip," I agree, grinning.

"But you know who's going to murder us first?" he says, tilting his head, pretending to think. "Yoongi-hyung."

I groan into his chest, laughing. "Oh my God, yes. He's going to kill us."

Tae wiggles his eyebrows. "Worth it."

I swat at him, but my hand just rests there, fingers tracing idle shapes on his skin.

"You did this to yourself, you know. You flirted with him all day yesterday."

He feigns innocence. "What? I was sweet."

"You teased him mercilessly," I counter.

"You almost kissed him. You literally leaned in, waited until his eyes fluttered shut, and then just... left."

Taehyung bursts out laughing, actually clutching his stomach. "Oh man, yeah. I forgot about that."

I grin, shaking my head. "You're so evil."

Still laughing, he turns slightly to face me more fully, propping himself up on an elbow. "It's not my fault! He's too cute when he's flustered. I live for that."

I roll my eyes fondly. "You're so in love with him it's stupid."

Tae's laughter softens into a sheepish smile, and his cheeks pink up. "I am," he admits, voice dropping lower. "I really am."

My heart squeezes at the vulnerability in his tone.

"And I love you too," he adds, gaze earnest, hand reaching out to brush a thumb along my cheek. "So much."

I lean into his touch, eyes softening. "I love you too, Tae."

We share a slow, tender kiss, no urgency-just warmth.

When we pull apart, there's a quiet pause before he quirks a brow, teasing again.

"So... now that we've go this thing going with Yoongi hyung..."

He gestures vaguely between us, smirking. "Are we... like... officially a throuple?"

I snort, burying my face in his chest again. "God, Tae."

He grins, rubbing soothing circles on my back. "No, seriously! Does this make us like... a certified unit now?"

I lift my head, meeting his eyes. "You're forgetting Jin and Joon."
