"What do you wanna say? Just say it," Taehyung said, getting all curious and Jeongguk just opened his mouth to say what he had in his mind all these time but cut short at words.

"Uh I know you ain't saying it so save it up, you can tell me later," Taehyung said hugging even more tightly than he already was when accidentally he looked down and saw the miniatures of houses and people.

"Lord, this is terrifying," Taehyung whispered.

"We almost there okay, hang in there."

In between two minutes, they were in the trolls garden and the broom was ascending in an animalistic pace causing both the boys to scream their hearts out.

"Thought I would die," Taehyung said panting the moment they landed on the ground and immediately got off this magical broom, "Never again, Jeongguk."

"I might just puke," Jeongguk said feeling his head pounding for some minutes. They after sometime got normal and finally looked around this beautiful garden.

They could see the lightings among the green grass and those were the spots where the trolls can be found. They radiate light and give out glitters as they walk and the whole place was full of glitters.

"I love this place," he made his way ahead, leaving the younger back staring at him as he started running around seeing all the trolls were in the other side of the garden.

"Catch me if you can!" the older laughed whole he continued to run and that moment, Jeongguk started chasing after him, loud giggles coming out from his mouth.

Jeongguk was faster but he didn't just go and catch him, he let the brunet run as he loved to hear those giggles as he was running around. He loved this moment and never wanted it to end.

But he had other things to do.

He had something to say and even he himself knows that if he didn't let these thoughts out today, he might never do it soon.

Blondie needs to let the other know about the feelings slowly developing in his heart and now he was seeing it grow stronger every single day.

"There, I did catch you!" Jeongguk shouted grabbing the other's shoulder when he at last started running in his actual speed and stopped him, "Ugh, Jeongguk, fuck you!"

The visible pout on his face brought a sweet smile on Jeongguk's face who just moved ahead and caressed his right cheek with the back of his hand, "Okay, run again. I will chase."

Taehyung was flustered by the change in tone, the way it got deeper and low made him wonder if he did this while he talked to anyone else because this here was absolute heaven.

"What did you want to tell me back then?"

"Uh," he was again in a dilemma, he was never this of a coward but maybe matters of the heart was sensitive and timing matters a lot. Therefore he wanted the right time to arrive when he says that he actually started liking him.

Yeah, in that way.

"Yeah wanted to say that, dad suspects the man in Belfort isn't Moron too," Jeongguk berated himself for even saying that. Like what? Why did he even do that. Ruined the moment for sure but Taehyung was there to save it.

"Cut it, Jeon. I don't want to hear all those crap. Now let's just enjoy okay?" Taehyung said running his palms along the other's muscular arms which had tattoos under those sleeves.

Those were actually very pleasing to watch. Artistic, he would say.

"You're right."

"Let's go see the trolls," he grabbed the blond's wrist dragging him ahead and they finally saw more of those lights as they were near.

"These are so cute, wanna squish them oof!" Taehyung cooed crouching down on the grass and noticed two small creatures running away when they acknowledged the presence of giant humans.

"They got scared of us," the brunet giggled, looking over his shoulder at the younger who was sitting just like him.

"I swear to God, if I could take one with me, I would. I always wanted one all to myself," Taehyung said keeping his palm on the ground, gesturing the trolls who were looking at them hiding behind the big grass blades, inspecting them, to come close.

Jeongguk just watched the scene when some of those came closer after a minute of staring and got on top of Taehyung's palm who was smiling so hard. His happiness knew no bounds and he quickly pulled them up, supporting them with his another palm for them to not fall making more space to stand.

"Jeongguk, look!" Taehyung pulled his hands to his face level and the younger couldn't take his eyes of him, the way his face glowed when the lights from the trolls reflected on his skin while he was giggling so cheerfully.

"Ah shit, Kim Taehyung. You're so damn cute, what the fuck!" Jeongguk mumbled under his breath and gulped. He didn't think anything else and leaned closer.

There's not right time. He understood that. It's just you have to make this time now the right one. He just needs to make this time special.

Cupping the other's cheeks gently in his hands, he held himself for a moment to look just into the other's eyes who was clueless.

And then the next moment,

Taehyung found Jeon Jeongguk pressing his lips on his cheek with his eyes closed and crazy heart beat.

It was a firm kiss on the skin and he pulled away slowly, too scared to look at him in his eyes as he looked down at the trolls who were witnessing this with widened eyes.

"I like you, Kim Taehyung." Jeongguk confessed, glancing at the other, accumulating all the courage from Lord knows where.

Taehyung just stared quiet and let the trolls in his hands back on the ground and stood up.

Jeongguk followed.

The blond smiled taking a huge step ahead and again cupped his cheeks. Eyes boring into each other's while Taehyung still didn't say a word, this moment was special for Jeongguk no matter what, he was courageous enough to say it even though he was doubting that maybe, maybe he will regret this later.

Because Taehyung didn't say he reciprocated his feelings and what if he just ruined their friendship?

Was it too fast? For him, it wasn't because he had been thinking about it a lot and he said this when he was sure. When he was sure that whatever he is feeling for the other is genuine, only then he said it.

"I know, you might think it's fast but Taehyung trust me, this past month has been tough and the only good thing happened to me is you, you were my solace and I found my peace in you, and when it's someone so beautiful and kind like you, how can I not fall?" Jeongguk was the only one doing the whole talking and even though he wasn't saying this but Taehyung's silence was scaring the fuck out of him.

"You're that one trap I happily fell for."

Still nothing from the brunet. He just kept on staring at the boy who was confession his feelings for him, pouring his heart out for him.

"Your silence is scaring me, Taehyung. Please say something." Jeongguk rubbed his thumb against the other's skin near his left eye. His mouth running dry and his body building that awkward heat.

"You're special to me, but that doesn't mean I have to be special for you too, it's okay if you don't feel the same, it doesn't have to be from both ways, always right?" Jeongguk asked and just one step away from crying because he just couldn't stand this silence.

"Jeongguk," Taehyung finally said called out his name, "What are you even saying? Are you sure?"

"I am, I am sure. I have been thinking about it, wanting to talk to you all the time, wanting to see you. Wanting to hold that hand, listen to your voice, I feel so belonged with you, Taehyung. I feel so happy."

"Are you sure you like me because it might be just that you like the idea of being with me," Taehyung asked, very surprised about this whole issue. This was out of the blue and he just couldn't comprehend.

"You're special to me, something about you makes me want to just stay, I want to laugh with you, kiss you, hold your hand, just give me a chance," Jeongguk was shaking as he stood there, the panic and the anxiety of losing Taehyung because of his confession started running through his mind and he can't but give it a thought on how stupid this decision might have been.

"Jeongguk, you're so sweet but we being together, do you think we will ever work?"

"I know why you are saying that but babe, I can't fix the past or even predict the future but what I can actually do is live the present and I want it to be with you," Jeongguk sucked in a sharp breath and again got close place another quick kiss on Taehyung's forehand.

"Please you don't have to rush, you don't have to give your reply now. Take your time. Think about it but if, if you ever felt like we can be together, please don't hold yourself back, give me a chance. I wanna be with you, not just as friends, a lot more than that."

"I will think about it Jeongguk."

"But for now, I wanna get back." Taehyung added.
