Dear Neighbour

→ TWENTY-THREE

"Rub my shoulders, please"

"Excuse me, I am not your maid"

Seokjin crosses his arms against his chest, spinning on his stool turning away from Namjoon.

"But you are a free loader in my apartment"

Namjoon teases raising his eyebrows as he stabs kimchi off his plate, putting it between his teeth, staring intently at Seokjin's back. Jin sighs defeated at the younger's comeback and finally stood from his seat and went behind Namjoon.

"It's only until I finish my business, and plus you're the one who offered me to stay, remember?"

*flashback*

"Kiss me back"

So, the older does and lets Namjoon slip his tongue into his mouth, licking pleasurable areas in his mouth. Namjoon then sits up not breaking their kiss as he tangled his fingers into Seokjin's soft hair, mirroring the elder's actions. Namjoon then pulls back heaving for air.

"What's your name? I never caught it"

Namjoon asks a smirk plastered on his face, as he stares at this man in pink hoodie. Just like the one he wore when they first met.

"J-Jin"

The older stutters avoiding Namjoon's flirtatious stare, his face was burning up as he reaches up to touch his lips that were still tingling.

"I'm sorry for spilling pineapple juice over you, Jin"

Namjoon sincerely apologizes but then stands up and stretches, he got sobered up with just the taste of the elder's lips.

"Thank you for sobering me up"

Namjoon winks, pushing his hands into his pockets. Jin was speechless, if he was alive and breathing he would've died anyway because of this man's actions.

"A-Anytime"

"Wanna come over to my place? I promise I won't spill drinks on you this time"

Namjoon offers as he noticed Jin not moving on his spot, like a frozen statue.

"So, what were you doing at the park so late?"

Namjoon asks leaning on his countertop taking a sip of his tea flushing away his remaining hangover.

"Just walking around, I like going on late night walks.."

Seokjin responds, he was a bit calmer now than when after they kissed. Jin picks off the grapes from its stems and places it back to the plate completely oblivious of Namjoon's stare.

"You're cute"

Namjoon didn't mean to say it out loud, but since the elder's face became red then he realized that he did anyway.

"So where do you live? I can drop you off later?"

Seokjin panicked should he tell him he lives next door? No! He can't, that's really dumb. Should he say he's from somewhere far? Should he pretend to be homeless?

"Ya! Jin-ah??"

"Huh –yah! I'm older than you"

Seokjin gets really bothered when people younger than him use informal speech.

"Really? you look so young though, I almost thought you were a minor"

"Was that supposed to flatter me?"

Seokjin laughs covering his mouth. Namjoon pouts embarrassed and jokingly glares at the older.

"So, where?"

"I actually don't have a place to go.."

Seokjin feels terrible for lying to tipsy Namjoon but he really wants to spend more time with the younger, hoping.. really hoping that Namjoon could catch his drift.
