ch30: wrap it up (1/2)
“Look, why does it even matter that she visited. I didn't let her in and she wanted to know why Taekwoon hyung wasn't picking up his phone”, Hongbin scoffed. “I asked for details and you've been lying. That means you could be lying about picking on Hakyeon while Taekwoon hyung was away”, Ravi said with gritted teeth in anger and frustration. “Please, I'm not desperate”, Hongbin scoffed, “Why the hell would I do something like that?”“That's what we need to figure out”, Ravi growled, “And if you’re not going to cooperate, get out”. Hongbin glared and left, leaving everyone to organize their thoughts. Although Ravi and Taekwoon defended Hakyeon, the latter knew they didn't believe him entirely. He looked at the floor trying to hide his tears. Hakyeon was humiliated; they probably thought he made up all this to frame Hongbin. Taekwoon had already kicked him out once; Hakyeon really couldn't handle it again. “HAKYEON!”Hakyeon’s head snapped up. “I've been saying your name for the past--- are you crying again??” Taekwoon demanded, reaching out to his husband. Hakyeon flinched and moved away. When his fingers touched his cheeks, he realized that he was indeed crying. The tears weren't stopping and the poor man roughly wiped his eyes, crying to get rid of the tears. Ravi sighed, “Uh-- I need to pick up Jaehwan from work”.The youngest grabbed his jacket and left to give the couple some privacy.
Hakyeon soon felt cold fingers gently grab his wrists to stop him from wiping his eyes. “Yeon-ah, calm down. It’s alright”, Taekwoon softly said.
Taekwoon wiped the tears with the palm of his hand and got Hakyeon a glass of water. “Come on, we can talk at home.”Unfortunately, things didn't go exactly as smoothly.
Halfway to their condo, Hakyeon’s phone wrang.
It was his mother. He couldnt avoid her forever so he shakily answered. “H-hello?”“Where the hell are you?!”“T-Taekwoon-shi’s place”.“How pathetic, did you go crying to him after--”Taekwoon had enough so he grabbed the phone from Hakyeon when the car stopped at a red light. “After what?! After you locked him in a closet with bruises!?”Hakyeon gasped and Hakyeon’s mother was silent.
“T-Taekwoon-shi-----”“I don't know why you don't get it but this is the last time I'm reminding you”, Taekwoon snarled, “He is JUNG Hakyeon now. He's MY husband so please stop interfering. It is not only irritating but pathetic; shouldn't you have better things to do?”
And with that, the younger male hung up the phone and put it back on Hakyeon’s lap.
The latter was staring at his husband with mouth and eyes wide open in shock. “Are you waiting for a fly to get in your mouth?” Taekwoon huffdd as the light changed back to green."So how long has Hongbin been bothering you?" Taekwoon asked. The two returned to the condo and were sitting on the couch. Hakyeon realized how much he missed the apartment ever since he thought of it as home. "Ever since we first met --- um the first time was at the bar I think--""The bar?? The day you returned crying about cheating on me??" Taekwoon demanded, "Why didn't you tell me?!" "I-it was really sudden and I assumed that he was drunk" Hakyeon explained, "I didnt think he'd do it again after a stern talking to"."I'm assuming that didn't phase Hongbin", Taekwoon scowled. "Anyways, he was more admanant and in a hurry when you were away", Hakyeon said, "it was as though he needed to accomplish something. That's when i got suspicious; he just had this vibe that he was trying to get job job done in a hurry. Over time, he even got kind of anxious. When I asked about it, he got all defensive".Taekwoon thought for a while before speaking "Well what's your take on all this?"Hakyeon hesitated, "Quite honestly, I think he's working with Minah to accomplish something. There's nothing Hongbin would gain from all this."Taekwoon frowned, "I don't want to think of those two backstabbers right now. Let's start over".
Hakyeon tilted his head to the side in confusion, "What do you mean?"Taekwoon gave him a sly smile, "Let's pretend we've just gotten married".Hakyeon was still processing his husband's words when he was pinned down on the bed. And when he did, his cheeks got red.
"Y-yah, what do you think you're d--".Suddenly Taekwoon's face was really close, "I'm serious. I want to make up for being such a jerk. I want to make you happy Hakyeon".And then their lips met in a slow, sweet kiss.
Taekwoon grinded his hips down against Hakyeon who whimpered in surprise.Soon, the couple had lost their clothes and Taekwoon entered Hakyeon with his finger. It took a minute for Hakyeon to get over the discomfort and experience pleasure.
