his face glows, beaming at his friend to the right. it had been a while since they had met up in person, usually resorting to texts or late night phone calls (in which kihyun would constantly rant about the nuisance that was his family – taehyung found that he never really minded). and really, taehyung would never usually be so caught off-guard by such an elaborate story, knowing full well his friend’s ability to ramble on until the sun went down, whether his words were factual or not. perhaps it was just the current situation at hand. taehyung was a bit frazzled with his date’s intensity.
“oh god, i’ve gotten a good few drunk texts from sohee before. lucky you, i guess, being the chosen one on the receiving end of such classy messages. so jealous, really.” he says with an amused snort, tugging the other along as they’d finally escaped his own version of hell. the few flashes of the cameras outside blinded him momentarily, dipping his head down to avoid losing his sight altogether. taehyung had grown used to the admirers of sorts, and despite appearing to be relatively unbothered by the press now, he’d first been rather put off by them. but with the few compliments he’d read online about himself, calling him “kihyun’s handsome friend” or “that cool tall guy he’s always with,” he quickly took a liking to the experience altogether. he’d always wanted to be famous, anyway.
the safety of black leather seats and heavily tinted windows brought comfort to the pair, taehyung even heaving a sigh of relief once he was able to sink down into the vehicle’s plush, luxury seating. he leaned back and finally let his eyes fall shut, a strong juxtaposition to his earlier body language towards such a lovely date. “oh my god, seriously, you’re the best. what do you want in return? lifetime supply of snacks? my entire life’s value?” he sighed out, head rolling on its side to eye at his savior. “want me to quit this whole online dating thing?”
honestly, ever since the start of this horrid date, that was a very strong possibility. none of the dates he’d landed from these websites had ever really ended well, nothing more than an awkward kiss out of pity, no hope for a second date whatsoever (the only one he’d really liked, ended up cancelling for somebody else). this last one had really been the tipping point, nose crinkling up at the mere thought of the guy.
“spot on. did just about everything you’d consider as, date repellent. for real, you know when people list out their deal breakers? guy managed to hit each and every one of them. messy, too loud, never let me talk, obnoxiously talking up the waiter when ordering drinks… can you believe he even tried to order for me? tsk, the nerve. that by itself just about made me walk outta there, man.
“i mean, you saw him for yourself, didn’t you?! barely even looked like his photos, he must really know how to use his filters.”
