The Devil is My Soulmate • KTH

~26~

"Alright so this is my little house" Taehyung punches in the security code of the main door and lets you enter into the grand residence.

"Are you sure it's 'little'?" You ask in disbelief, your eyes roaming around the luxurious space. The floor was covered with expensive carpets while small but elegant looking crystal chandeliers were hanging above your head. The penthouse was huge, with the finest of furnishings anyone could imagine. From the black leather couch to the beautiful lamp beside it, from the well sculpted marble vase to the small bar table where many expensive drinks were lined up, everything in the house screamed money.

Your attention was however grabbed by the huge glass wall. Your feet automatically carry you towards it and you were mesmerized by the view of the entire city in front of you. "This is so pretty!"

"It's even prettier at night" Taehyung states. You turn towards him without realizing how close he actually was.

Surprised, you look up but his attractive eyes enthrall you. You were finding it hard to look away and your heart was doing somersaults inside your chest. You were fascinated by the way his dark brown orbs seemed like pools of honey with flecks of gold floating on them when the bright lights reflected through them. It was enchanting, as if you've been captivated by those charming feline eyes.

You didn't miss the way his eyes trailed down to your lips while his hands snaked around your waist, pulling you closer to him. You watch him lick his lips before leaning in. His hot breath fans over your face and made your heart go crazy, almost as if it will pop out of your chest. One of his hands comes up to cup your face, his thumb drawing circles on your cheek while his eyes were stuck on yours. And as if his actions weren't giving you enough butterflies, he presses his lips against yours before pulling away.

It was just a soft yet small peck but you felt an entire zoo in the pit of your stomach. You felt heat rush up to your face and as a result, you move away from him as soon as his hands let go of you.

"Aww I didn't know you were so shy." You heard Taehyung's giggles from behind you when you started walking to check out the other areas of his penthouse. Honestly, you were surprised yourself by the way you felt so shy when that happened.

"Shut up." You try to mask your shyness  but it seemed like you failed because you heard another fit of giggles reaching your ears.

You smile involuntarily at that and start exploring the kitchen area.

It was huge, well that's what you were expecting. With the marbelled countertops, well furnished drawers and shelves, new technology based electric cooking appliances, different sorts of china plates and dining sets, the kitchen looked pretty impressive. Your eyes then moved to the dining area that was separated from the kitchen area by another marble countertop and four velvet finished counter stools. The dining space was basically just a modern eight-seater dining table, a few indoor plants and some paintings painted by very renowned artists.

All the furniture, paintings, carpets, everything that was visible to your eyes made you wonder how much money this man actually had.

"Tan? Tan? Where did you go? Look we have a new member with us!" Confused, you walk out of the kitchen and into the living room after hearing Taehyung calling someone.

What you didn't expect was to see a tiny four-legged creature running towards you. It first circles around you and then starts to sniff you. You crouch down, smiling at the cute puppy and run your hand through its soft black fur.

"Tannie? Where are you?" Taehyung's voice says from upstairs.

You giggle and lift its light weight body, kinda expecting it to jump out of your hands as you were just a stranger to it but it didn't and you giggle when it starts licking your face. The pomeranian's actions were reminding you of Ellie. It even looked the same as her.

With a smile spread across your face, you went upstairs where, as you assumed, Taehyung was searching for his pet.

"You never told you had a pet..." You say as soon as you walked into the room where Taehyung was.

Though it was your first time, you were sure this was Taehyung's room. It was big and spacious. The walls were painted a light shade of grey and a king size bed was kept in the middle of the room with small bedside tables on either sides of it. There was a TV hanging on the wall just across it and a few drawers were visible built into the wall.

"There you are!" Taehyung walks towards you and takes the puppy from your hands, completely ignoring you but you let it slide when you see Taehyung playfully nuzzling into the dog's fur.

You watch him sit on the floor, his fingers scratching its head. Taehyung's whole face lights up, when the puppy returns his affection by licking his face. His eyes sparkled with undying affection which you've never seen before while his mouth formed his signature boxy grin.

You follow your urge and sit beside Taehyung who was still busy playing with the pomeranian.

"This is Yeontan and Yeontan this is Y/n. She's going to live with us!" You chuckle at the way he cutely introduced you.

"He looks quite young." You state in awe at the small size of the pup.

"Yeah, I just got him last week. He's just 3 weeks old." Taehyung continued scratching the dog's tummy.

Once you started to play with him, Yeontan proceeded to jump out from Taehyung's grip and tries to get on your lap but due to his small size, he kept failing. You and Taehyung laugh at his failed attempts and you yourself pull him up on your lap, letting the tiny creature sit on it. You start scratching his back and he instantly turns on his back, telling you to give him belly scratches.

"He's just like Ellie." You giggle, turning around to look at Taehyung who was staring at you playing with Yeontan with the biggest smile on his face. You couldn't tell if that smile was because of Yeontan or you or maybe both."What happened?" You ask.

"Nothing. I just forgot to tell you that we're going out tonight." He states, looking at you.

Yeontan had left the two of you alone as soon as you got distracted by Taehyung. "But I have to unpack..."

"Don't worry about that. You can do it tomorrow, it's a Sunday after all. Just get ready by 7." With this, he leaves the room as well and lets confusion cloud in your head.

Why did he become so awkward all of a sudden? Is it because he was asking me out for a date...?
