Hiding Tonight
Description
This is a short story about Kim Taeyeon and Tiffany Hwang, and a different kind of procrastination. The unlikely pair were no more than two galaxies that had merged into one infinite form of complexity and wonder. And yes, they were smart enough to know that first love would never last, nor die, but they were brave, foolhardy... desperate enough to give it a shot.
Foreword
"Ask me how far the the most distant star is,"
"I'm in love with you, Taeyeon-ah,"
"Ask me," Taeyeon repeated, with a glint of something Tiffany couldn't read in her eyes just yet. Was it happiness? Was it sadness? Fear? She didn't know anymore. Tiffany just knew that it wasn't supposed to hurt this much.
"Fine. How far?" Tiffany breathed, disappointed at Taeyeon's response. She made herself vulnerable and here Taeyeon was talking to her about the damn stars.
"Some say 76,000 light years away," Taeyeon's hand found Tiffany's again, and before Tiffany could even think about pulling away, Taeyeon's lips pressed onto her own, effectively silencing her and causing her to forget why she was so upset to begin with.
Seconds, maybe minutes passed, and time wasn't an issue this time. But they kissed until their lips burned, and their hands roamed, and their tears fell. The way Tiffany kissed Taeyeon made her wonder why Taeyeon ever believed that she was better off alone before they met. "76,000 light years away. And I am in love with you." Taeyeon smiled, with her eyes closed and forehead pressed gently on Tiffany's. "I love you, Fany,"
"I love you, too." It felt too right. "Are you scared?" Tiffany kissed Taeyeon's tears away.
"No,"
"What do we do now?"
"I'm in love with you. That's all I need for now. Is it enough for you?"
"It's more than enough, TaeTae." She gave Taeyeon's now warmed hand a gentle squeeze. "We'll give this our hardest try,"
"We will." Taeyeon sighed. "I'll give you the world one day, Fany-ah. One day..."
But I'm quite all right hiding tonight.
Full oneshot will be posted later today :) I apologize if this seems a bit sad! Haha, it's... bittersweet?
