Chapter 3

It was by mid-night when Taeyang reached home, he slowly steps into the house and was about to move towards the stairs when the lights of the living room were switched on and comes his mother's not so happy voice

"What do you think you were doing, by not coming straight home from the dinner?"

"I-I went to meet jiminie hyung after dinner, mother" Taeyang says while looking at the floor

"how many times do I have to tell you to not keep contact with the likes of him, he works in a bar, Taeyang" his mother's dislike towards jimin wasn't a new thing for Taeyang

"jiminie hyung is very nice mother, he is studying in seoul academy" Taeyang tries to defend his friend

"yes and is majoring in dance, it's not what people from reputed families do" his mother rolls her eyes and continues "and I don't really care about him, I just don't want the Jungs to have a low opinion of you by seeing you with people like him and yes Hoshik's sister called, they said yes" his mother's happiness evident from her last sentence

Taeyang nods "yes mother"

"You are needed to go to KYH industries tomorrow to meet Hoshik for lunch, he wants to meet you and yes I gave them our nod as well, don't make them change it after tomorrow"

"Yes mother"

"You may leave now"

Taeyang nods and makes his way towards his room after mumbling a "good night, mother" under his breath

*******************************************************************************************

Hoshik was sitting at the back seat of Kijoon's car along with Yujun, while Kijoon was driving with Kookie at the passenger's seat

"hyung, I heard that Taeyang hyung is really cute" Jungkook asks Hoshik while turning on his passenger's seat to have a better look at Hoshik

"I don't know kook, I didn't meet him" Hoshik says while looking at the night lamps along the road, they were on their way back from the treat that Jungkook insisted on, for cracking the deal and well knowing Kijoon and his love for Kookie, no was not an option.

"well then, I know for sure he is cute!" Jungkook smirks his bunny smirk

"how do you know Kookie" Kijoon asks from his driver's seat

"when I asked Jaehee noona, she might have sent me his picture" Jungkook smiles at Kijoon

"let me see bunny" saying that Yujun snatches Jungkook's phone and looks at Taeyang's picture where he was sporting his boxy smile along with another boy with crescent moon eyes and plump lips

"which one?" Yujun asks while looking at the shorter boy in the pic

"the taller one" Jungkook says

"he is good, he has a weird smile but I find the shorter one cuter" Yujun shrugs and gives the phone back, not even asking Hoshik, if he wants to see. While Jungkook just rolls his eyes "Hobi hyung, you want to see"

"he might not be interested kook, let him be" Yujun smirks and answers for Hobi, who just ignores everything

"you are lucky hyung, he looks nice and from what noona told me, he has good manners too" Jungkook tries to pike up Hobi's interest

"hmmm" comes Hoshik's bored reply

"What are you going to talk to him about tomorrow?" Kijoon asks with his focus still on the road

"Maybe about his kinks in bed" Yujun smirks while Hoshik glares at him

"Hyung, Kookie is in the car" Kijoon reminds him

"what is that hyung?" Kookie looks at Yujun with his big doe innocent eyes

Yujun clears his throat, cursing himself under his breath

"its nothing good Kookie and not something you should talk in public, ok?" Kijoon explains

"ok hyung, but can I talk about it when I am with you?" Kookie asks innocently for which Yujun snorts

"Yes Joon, can he?" Yujun asks with a serious face

"we are getting distracted from the actual question, Hobi?" Kijoon says diverting the topic

"I'll talk what every normal person talks when they meet someone for the first time, what Is there to think so much about?" Hoshik replies irritated

"I think you should apologize" Kijoon suggests

"yes, maybe you should buy him some flowers like white carnation or daisies which symbolizes innocence, purity and loyal love or maybe some daffodil's for new beginnings" Jungkook jumps excitedly on his seat for which Kijoon smiles and shakes his head

"I don't think there is a reason for me to apologize and about the flowers, noona gave him roses, so that's settled" Hoshik says, as if he doesn't want to continue this conversation any further

But looks like Jungkook didn't get the hint as he continues with a pout "it will be different when you give them to him"

"I'll think about it and Joon drop me at my apartment" Hoshik says, this time finality evident in his tone

"I thought you were living in your family house" Yujun Inquires

"I don't want to hear noona going gaga over this Taeyang all night, I need some sleep" comes Hoshik's irritated reply for which rest of the passengers chuckle.

*********************************************************************************************

Kijoon drops Hoshik and Yujun at their respective apartment complexes and drive to their own

As soon as they enter the elevator Jungkook rests his head on Kijoon's shoulder and gives a satisfies sigh and automatically Kijoon's hand comes up to run through his hair and Kookie relaxes even more into his touch

"tired?" Kijoon asks

"hmm" his hands wrap around the elders waist and now they were properly hugging and Kijoon's hands where drawing soothing circles on the younger's back

There was a calming silence in the elevator till the bell dings indicating that they have reached their pent house but Jungkook refuses to leave his hyung from his hug for which Kijoon just chuckles and walks in the same position, enters the security number and enter their penthouse

"Kookie,, you need to take off your coat, c'mon" Kijoon chuckles when Kookie refuses to leave him

"aaa hyung, you are so warm, I don't wanna leave you" he whines

"We can cuddle, I promise" Kijoon bribes the youngest

"really?" in an instant the younger threw his coat on the coat hanger and was gone into the elder's room and Kijoon just laughs and follows him.

As soon as he enters the room, the younger was all tugged under the elder's blanket

"hyung come fast, I want to sleep" his whining continues

"did you brush your teeth kookie" Kijoon asks while shuffling through his night dresses

"no, but I am tired today, please hyung" he pouts which he knows Kijoon can't say no to.

"fine, this is the last time I am letting you do this" Kijoon says as he takes one of his night dresses and walks into the washroom to change

Jungkook sighs and stares at the washroom door which opens and Kijoon walks in and kookie smiles and makes grabby hands at Kijoon for which he chuckles and slips into the bed and pulls Jungkook to his chest by wrapping his hands around Jungkook's waist and rests his chin on younger's head and sighs while Jungkook just hugs his hyung tighter. No matter what, younger's sweet coconut like scent always helps to calm him down.

"hyung" comes Jungkook's muffled call

"hmmm" Kijoon's eyes were still closed

"thank you hyung" Jungkook looks up at him while Kijoon smiles at him "for what kookie?"

"for being you, for being here for me" Kijoon just smiles and kisses his forehead "I will always be here for you kookie and thank you for believing in me"

"hyung, I will always believe in you" Jungkook slides up slightly and kisses Kijoon's cheeks and resumes back his position

"I know Kookie, now sleep, you have college tomorrow" they snuggle into each other and drift off to sleep

*********************************************************************************************

Next day, Taeyang wakes up from his slumber by the ringing of his phone, he grumpily receives the call

"hello"

"tae tae good morning" comes Jimin's voice

"aaa hyung, why did you call me this early" Taeyang whines

"tae tae, its 9 in the morning, you got to get up now if you need to be ready to meet your man on time"

Jimin says calmly

"damn! I am late, and he is not my man" Taeyang jumps out of the bed and hurries to the bathroom

"well, not just yet" jimin chuckles " and tell me how it goes, ok"

"ok, bye hyung, I got to go"

They hang up

*********************************************************************************************

The trio where sitting in their cabin(yes they have separate cabins but they spend most of the time together in one)

"at what time is he coming" Kijoon asks while setting his pen down on the table after signing a few files"

"around 12:30"Hoshik replies nonchalantly

"its almost time" Yujun says, lying on the couch about to have a nap

"did you buy something for him" Kijoon inquires

"I didn't get time, not like I promised him anything" Hoshik clarifies before Kijoon could say anything

"we didn't even expect you to buy anything, just don't hurt the kid, he is too cute for that" Yujun says with his eyes closed and arms folded in front of his chest

But before Hoshik could defend himself, their intercom rings

"yes"

"sir, one Mr. Kim Taeyang is here to meet you" says the lady

"I'll be down there in a min, tell him to have a seat" Hoshik replies while grabbing his coat draped on his chair

"yes sir"

The line was dead and Hoshik proceeds towards the door

"please, don't scare the kid" comes Yujun's last advice before he leaves the cabin

While walking towards the elevator, he felt something foreign in his stomach, maybe it was because of the build up that everyone around him gave for this Taeyang guy, now that he thinks, he should have taken a look at the picture yesterday.

His thoughts were interrupted by the ding of the elevator and he enters trying to shoo his anxiety away

As soon as he reaches the ground floor, he walks towards the receptionists who tells him that his guest is in the waiting room, Hoshik nods and walks to the waiting room, he stops at the door and takes a deep breath before opening the door and entering

As soon as the person sitting on the sofa looks up to him, he stops on his track, their eyes met and a small smile that the boy in front of him was sporting made him look even more innocent than what the others were saying, their talks didnt do much justice to what he was seeing in front of his eyes

**********************************************************************************************

As soon as Taeyang looks up, the first thing that came to his mind was to stand up and bow, the man in front of him was dripping with dominance and he looked sad and angry but that look for some reasons didn't scare Taeyang, instead, it made him want to smile at him, may be in hopes of seeing the elder smile too, but seeing no change in expression, Taeyang decides to speak up

"hello, I am Kim Taeyang"

"Jung Hoshik" comes his cold reply for which Taeyang nods and the room fills with an awkward silence which Hoshik decides to break

"Lets get going then" with that being said Hoshik turns on his heels and walks out, Taeyang looks at his retreating back and then hurries to follow him

They reach outside the building and a car comes to a halt, when Hoshik goes to take the door, that's when Taeyang notices how good the elder looked in those black dress pants, black turtle neck and black coat while he himself felt under dressed in his black sweatshirt and black ripped jeans, when he left home, taking the opportunity of his mother's absence as a blessing to dress comfortably, he didn't think about it becoming a regret

He comes back from his thought when Hoshik clears his throat, that's when he sees that the elder was holding the door open for him

He bows and mutters an apology before getting in the car and scooting over for the elder to sit beside him, only one thought running through his mind

"don't make a fool of yourself and pls survive this lunch without doing anything embarrassing"

He looks towards his left and suddenly a thought hits him

"I am going to get married to him, he will be my husband!"

How was it?
