《I Don't Like You - Beomgyu x Taehyun》XVIII
Advertisement
Yeonjun stared at the boy trying to hide himself under the covers, "You can't sulk in here forever."
"Watch me."
"Look I'm sorry if I upset you last night but that was last night," Yeonjun walked to the younger's bed and tugged on the blanked, "but you have to move on."
Soobin quickly tightened his grip and pulled it back over his head, "I don't want to talk to you."
"Well that sucks doesn't it," Yeonjun sighed, taking a seat on the edge of Soobin's bed.
"Go away," Soobin started kicking at the older who yelped and jumped off the bed.
Yeonjun heard the younger laugh with made him smile, "Hey! That's not very nice of you."
"You're not very nice."
"You better take that back!" Yeonjun glared at Soobin.
Soobin lowered the blanket to make eye contact with the older and smirked, "Or what?"
"You asked for it,"Yeonjun took a step back and crouched down and pounced on top of Soobin.
Soobin wheezed, "You're so heavy!"
"Hey!" Yeonjun positioned himself so he could see Soobin's face and pinched his cheek, "You better take that back too."
"Why take it back the truth?" Soobin stuck his tongue out causing them both to laugh. Yeonjun saw that Soobin's cheeks were a pale shade of pink and that's when he felt his cheeks were burning too. He didn't notice just how close their faces really were. If Yeonjun really wanted to he could easily lean down and-
"I'm sorry!" Yeonjun rolled off the bed and covered his face with his hands.
"Are you ok?" Soobin leaned over the side of the bed, "That sounded like it hurt."
Yeonjun was too busy whispering to himself to hear Soobin," I don't like you anymore I like Kai. I don't like you anymore I like Kai. I don't like you anymore I like Kai. I don't like you anymore I like-"
"Yeonjun?"
"Huh?" Yeonjun lowered his hands to look up at Soobin, "Yeah I'm fine. I'm great actually, never better."
Soobin gave him a suspicious glare before shrugging and settling back under his covers, "If you say so."
"Can we have a serious talk now?" Yeonjun stood up and dusted himself off.
Soobin sighed and revealed his face once again, "I guess so."
"Thank you," Yeonjun took a seat back on his own bed.
"Well?"
"I know you've had a pretty lonely childhood and you said you wanted to be loved," Yeonjun lowered his gaze so he didn't see the black haired boy, "but love expands outside of romantic relationships."
"I can already tell this is going to be cheesy," Soobin chuckled.
"Hey cheesy or not it's the truth," Yeonjun played with the hem of his shirt, "We all love you a lot. And I know there's been some conflict and tension recently but that's bound to happen every once in a while. It doesn't mean any of us care for you any less. We're all going to love you for a long time and I hope you feel the same way about us. I just wanted to let you know that you're an amazing leader and Tomorrow by Together wouldn't be the same without you."

"Thanks Yeonjun," Soobin smiled.
Yeonjun nodded, "I just hope you really are able to move on from this crush situation. It hurts to see how upset he makes you sometimes. I mean Beomgyu is a great guy but he just outed both him and Taehyun on stage. Do you really wanna be in a relationship with someone like that?"
"I guess you're right," Soobin chuckled.
"Just promise me you'll really try to move on," Yeonjun shook his head, "and really mean it this time."
"I promise," Soobin laughed, "for real this time."

Beomgyu's phone started to ring and he unwillingly sat up, "Is it really eight already?" Beomgyu rubbed his eyes before grabbing his phone to turn off his alarm when he noticed his alarm wasn't going off, Kai was calling him. Beomgyu squinted looking at the time, "Why is Kai calling me at eig-eleven? It's eleven!" Beomgyu cursed under his breath he could have sworn he set an alarm and swiftly jumped out of bed and answered the phone, "Hey Kai, uh, what's up?"
"Oh hey Beomgyu," Kai sounded concerned, "Are you alright?"
"Yeah, yeah, I'm fine," Beomgyu rummaged through his closet trying to find an outfit that even somewhat matches, "I just slept through my alarm is all."
"It's okay it happens to the best of us," Kai laughed, "You're just lucky we didn't have school today."
"Yeah, so what did you want to talk about?" Beomgyu asked as he quickly changed out of his night clothes.
"Well I was hoping we could still hang out today just like you promised," Kai explained, those last four words with a bit more emphasis.
Beomgyu completely froze, "What?"
"Don't tell me you forgot already," the younger whined through the phone, "You promised at the sleepover!"
"Kai I didn't say exactly the day after the concert," Beomgyu sat on his bed and pushed back his hair, "I said some day after."
"But I thought today would be the best day since we're off," Kai trailed off.
"If I'm being completely honest with you I was planning to hang out with you today too, but then last night happened," Beomgyu felt overwhelmed with guilt, "I did something last night to upset Taehyun, and I'm pretty sure you know what that is. After that he's the only thing that was on my mind and after I talked to him we decided-"
"You made other plans with him," Kai sighed.
"I'm so sorry," Beomgyu pinched the bridge of his nose, "I promise next time we're both free I'll buy you as much ice cream as you want."
"You know I was going to say it's okay because I've become closer with someone else who'll drop all of his plans to spend time with me," Kai laughed, "but now you have to keep your word about the ice cream."

"I deserve that."
"Well obviously you do," Kai grinned, "Anyways you better go win back Taehyun's heart. He deserves to be happy again."
"Right," Beomgyu nodded, "I'll talk to you later Kai."
"Bye Beomgyu," Kai ended the call.
Beomgyu rushed into his bathroom to do his makeup and hair. By the time he was finished he looked at himself in the mirror. From his pink shirt to curly brown hair he looked simple but cute at the same time. "This works," Beomgyu smiled at himself and looked down at his phone, "It's almost twelve now." With no more time to lose he grabbed the sunflowers he brought from the store last night and headed downstairs. He eagerly knocked on the door as he waited.
Within a few seconds the door opened and Taehyun looked surprised to see him, "I thought you would never show up."
"It's better late than never, baby," Beomgyu held out the flowers, "I know the perfect place to take you."
-
"Yeonjun" Kai yelled out as he banged from the outside of the older's door, "Beomgyu made other plans so let me in!"
"I didn't know you were having company over," Soobin rolled his eyes and covered himself back up once again.
"I'm coming!" Yeonjun called out before turning back to Soobin, "I didn't know either," he smiled rising up from his bed, "but surprises are always nice."
"Yeonjun!" the younger boy cried from outside.
"I'm coming, I'm coming," Yeonjun repeated as he opened the door and was immediately pulled into a big bear hug.
"I missed you," Kai snuggled his face into the older's shoulder.
"I missed you too," Yeonjun whispered back as he continued to hold the black haired boy in his arms. They stayed like that for a while until a large pillow hit Yeonjun's back causing him to almost push the younger down.
"Get a room," Soobin growled.
"Hey!" Kai let go of Yeonjun and held up a fist, "Don't be jealous."
Soobin rolled over on his stomach, "Whatever."
"Don't mind him," Yeonjun placed his his hands on Kai's sides, "Did you wanna go out somewhere?"
"Nu uh," Kai scrunched his nose, "I wanna stay here just to irk him!"
"Of course you do," Yeonjun chuckled before turning serious, "but there's something I wanna talk to you about, and it can't be around him."
"What?" Kai pushed the older boy off of him, "What do you mean we have to talk? That's never a good thing! It's only been a couple of days how did I mess it up already!"
"Kai, Kai, Kai" Yeonjun hushed him, "It has nothing to do with you, I promise. You did nothing wrong and you're great and that's why I feel like I have to be honest with you about this."
"Then why can't you say it in front of him?" Kai crossed his arms.
"Because I," Yeonjun licked his lips, "I just can't"
"Let me guess it has something to do with him?" Kai raised an eyebrow.
Yeonjun looked at the younger with pleading eyes, "Can we please go somewhere else?" Kai ignored the other boy's request as he started to let his mind wander to the worst case scenarios but didn't say anything. "Seriously Kai."
"Don't 'seriously' me!" Kai snapped, "You still like him don't you."
"Kai please be quiet."
"You're not denying it," Kai stomped a foot on the ground, "You hear that Soobin? My boyfriend has feelings for you!"
"That's pretty gross," Soobin scoffed.
"Please listen to me Kai," Yeonjun spoke softly, narrowing his eyes, "I confessed to him at the sleepover and he rejected me."
"So it is true!" Kai leaned back into Yeonjun's chest and lightly punched him repeating 'jerk' over and over again.
"I thought I finally gotten over them after he hurt me and I started talking to you, but they just came back out of the blue," Yeonjun admitted, "but it won't cause any problems between us. I'm going to be able to get over them."
"If it won't cause any problems then why did you want to talk about it?" the younger hissed.
"Because I thought you had the right to know."
"The right to know? If you have some stupid crush on someone else I don't care as long as you don't act on it," Kai pulled away form Yeonjun, "I'm tired of being lonely all the time and I just wanna be happy with someone. I don't want to have to fight over stupid stuff all the time."
"I'm sorry Kai," Yeonjun looked down at his feet.
"Don't apologize I know you had good intent," Kai sighed and held onto Yeonjun's hand, "We can get through this easily. For starters," Kai lightly slapped Yeonjun, "Are you stupid? It's like you haven't even met the guy! He's such a sourpuss. Why would you be interested in someone like that?"
-
"Here we are!" Beomgyu announced as he abruptly stopped.
"The Summer Cafe?" Taehyun read the sign aloud and looked at the older confused, "Why here?"
Beomgyu frowned, "What do you mean 'why here'? We've had some pretty fun times here don't you think?"Taehyun took a second to recall the last time they were here. At first he was jealous of Soobin until he left. He recalled the gummy bear scene, racing in the rain, and spending the rest of the night with the boy he liked.
"You're right," Taehyun grinned, "I guess it is sort of a special place.
"And don't worry," Beomgyu linked arms with the younger, "This is only the start of our date."

Sorcery in Boston
The timid daughter of some of the greatest spellcasters ever to have lived has found herself in another world, courtesy of magic gone awry. In Boston, Massachusetts, in the year 1935, she finds some kind souls in a hard era. In the heart of the Great Depression, as war looms around the corner, she seeks to find her place, and must come to terms with both who she is and what she truly desires. Author's Notes: Release Note: I recently realized what the hold up is. My current mental state is not compatible with the planned ending. If I wrote the ending according to what currently feels right, it will be a wretched, cruel ending that feels monstrously unfair and invalidates the work of the various characters... because that's how my life feels at the moment. The planned ending is coming out hollow and awkward, no matter how I write it, and so I've been bashing my head. I will finish it, once I manage to either brute force something decent out, or once my head gets screwed on straight. Audience: This story is not for young children - it contains some profanity, sexual content, violence, gore, and significant adult themes. Most of these are handled delicately enough not to upset teens or adults (hopefully), hence the lack of relevant tags, but it is nonetheless unsuitable for youth. It's fairly slow paced, and focused on the development of very human, very flawed individuals. Length / Completion Estimates: The outline currently involves two books. Book 1 is expected to be done with Chapter 43. It'll probably be completely finished by sometime in March of this year. I expect to move on to the far-more-lighthearted Of Gods and Dungeons (currently in progress / on hiatus). Afterwards, I may decide to redo Book 1, or write Book 2, or actually start sharing the story most dear to me, that I've been working on for several years now. Draft 1: Please be aware that this is first draft material. I do intend to come back to do a second draft after the story is complete. If anyone notices any issues whatsoever with the story, please let me know (pm, etc) so that I can improve the second draft. Writer's Pledge: I've taken the Writer's Pledge, meaning I'm commiting to completing this story. I'm a proud member of WriTE, a group dedicated to finishing stories. It will be done! Behind the Scenes notes: This picture was commissioned from an inked artist by the name of DanP. Up until the time of the protagonist's arrival, history has proceeded as before. Some places and characters have been borrowed from wikipedia entries of interesting figures from the time. I will make note in the chapter comments when such things come up. Naturally, I've taken a great deal of liberty with them. In interest of respecting individuals, I've either attempted to portray them as accurately as possible, or modified them sufficiently enough that they're simply an inspiration, instead of a real portrayal. I've attempted to be as accurate to the era as possible, but I'm not a historian. If you're aware of inaccuracies, please, bring them to my attention so that I can correct them.
