Tongue Tied-JAEYONG

chapter twenty four: understatement

After Jaehyun took care of his business, he walked back into the bedroom still in his sweatpants. He saw Taeyong seating up on the bed while holding his phone, probably texting someone. From the silhouette, he noticed Taeyong was still naked and the only thing that was covering his body was the blanket on the bed.

Jaehyun closed the door behind him and walked towards Taeyong. He slowly sat and hugged his beloved from behind, wrapping the blanket around the naked body securely with his arms. Jaehyun leaned and propped his head on Taeyong's shoulder.

Taeyong looked beside and kissed the man's head before going back texting Jungwoo.

"You're gonna sleep here?" Jaehyun saw how Taeyong was convincing Jungwoo to cover him up while he sleeps over at Jaehyun's.

Taeyong nodded but looked hesitant.

'Can I?'

"Of course, sweetheart. But it's a Monday today and I can't drive you to school," Jaehyun said and kissed the smaller's shoulder lovingly, "I won't be going to class this week. I just came late today so that I could just get the quiz done."

The mute pouted and the other pinched his nose. He chuckled as he snuggled himself against the mute's small back.

"You can sleepover at Fridays and weekends," Jaehyun uttered, "Unless you have your parents' permission."

Taeyong furrowed his eyebrows.

'Why do I need my parents' permission? I'm not a kid anymore!'

Jaehyun chuckled at his reaction, "Because Mr. Lee, I just know that your parents are very strict with you."

The mute fell quiet. He was just so sure that his parents won't let him stay a freaking condominium with a person they haven't known yet. Jaehyun pulled him closer and his hug tightened around Taeyong's waist.

"I know you really want to, but I just don't want you to get in trouble."

Taeyong nodded as he forced himself out of Jaehyun's embrace and stood up with the blanket still wrapped around him. He picked up his clothes and wears them since he's going home anyway.

It's probably the best decision for now. He'll get in trouble if his parents find out that he's with Jaehyun.

After wearing his shirt, Taeyong looked back at Jaehyun who was staring back at him. Taeyong told him that he'll get going before his parents come home. But probably they won't, it's already past dinner time.

Both of them walked out of the bedroom and Taeyong grabbed his bag fromthe couch.

"Why don't you wait for Johnny? I just texted him to pick you up."

Taeyong nodded before seating on the couch to turn the TV on. Jaehyun sat beside him as soon as he wore a shirt. He put his hand ontop of Taeyong's and intertwines the fingers with his. Taeyong looked at him and saw how sorry and upset he was.

Jaehyun sighed, "How about this? I'll see you in Friday, we'll have our first date."

Taeyong's eyes went wide and sparkled to hear what Jaehyun just said. He put up a wide smile and hugged Jaehyun around the chest.

"You like that?" Jaehyun asked and Taeyong nodded, "Where do you wanna go?"

The other just shrugged, anywhere would be fine honestly. Taeyong wasn't raised with high class things even though his parents are doctors. Some of their work is voluntary, so sometimes they don't get paid. His parents mostly spend their money on Taeyong's therapies and education.
