Between The Hidden World And Ours... - [YEONGYU FF]

Chapter 12

After breakfast, Beomgyu went back into his room to change and start working on his studies again, as there was nothing else left to do, but that backfired on him greatly the moment he sat down.

He just sat there, staring at his work, until he came to the realization— he didn't want to do it.

He didn't want to study, to research, to do things related to work that would stress him out again.

Instead... he wanted to be with Yeonjun.

Beomgyu slammed his laptop shut, stood up from his desk, walked out of his room, and opened the door to Yeonjun's room.

The older male was busy looking at his files, but of course he interrupted it once he saw the black haired male standing in the door way, giving him his undivided attention.

"Hey," he greeted.

"Yeonjun, can we do something together?"

"Hmm?"

He closed her laptop.

"What do you wanna do?" Yeonjun asked.

And Beomgyu immediately felt bashful, because guess what?

He had no idea what.

"Uh..."

The wheels in his brain spun out of control, thinking about what they could maybe play— wait.

Why am I even thinking, play?! What are we, little kids?

Maybe.

Sometimes our inner child comes out wanting to play like we once did carelessly when we were young.

"Do you perhaps want to play some board games? I think there may be some laying around here," he finally offered.

A smile lit up Yeonjun's entire face.

"Of course!"

Shortly after, the two sat in the living room, a chess board laid out in front of them.

Yeonjun suggested that game as it helps sharpen the brain, and because Beomgyu did like chess actually quite a lot, he decided to play along.

He had the white figures, while Yeonjun had the black ones, so he had a good head start since he went first.

But what Beomgyu learned that day is— you wouldn't wanna dare to go against Yeonjun in a game of chess.

"No... no no no... don't you dare," Beomgyu begged.

Yeonjun smirked, and flipped his King over.

"Checkmate."

"ARRRGHHH!!!"

Beomgyu peeled off his sock and threw it across the living room.

"How did you do that?!"

Yeonjun broke out laughing, loving this side of Beomgyu so much.

"You're like a little kid when you lose!"

"Shut up," the ravenette mumbled, turning red in the face.

Yeonjun couldn't stop laughing, and playfully slapped Beomgyu's shoulder. Usually, when someone does that, the latter gets irritated.

But this time, and because it was Yeonjun, he didn't care.

Wait what am I even thinking, round two?

"Come on, it was a game, nothing more!"

"Yeah yeah," Beomgyu huffed.
