I Still Want You [Taekook] - Chapter 48: Chapter 48

Berlin - August 2018
No One's P.O.V
Knock ... Knock ...
There is a knock on the door of Taeeun's room
"Ma'am, lunch is ready." said one of the maids
"Okay, thank you. We will be going to the dining room soon."
"I will call Soojung, you call your friends and their staff to have lunch together." Taeeun caressed Taehyung's hair with affection
And the said male hug the later.
"Thank you, Noona." he kissed his sister's cheek.
Taehyung immediately ran to Jin's room with a smile on his face.
"Jin Hyung, Yoongi Hyung... knock knock"
"You disturb my sleep, and you'll pay for that." Yoongi opened the door. From his appearance, no doubt, he just woke up.
"I'm sorry, I love you." Taehyung gave him his famous boxy smile
"I know." Yoongi pat his head lovingly
"Where is Jin Hyung?" Taehyung poked his head in through the door.
"He's in the bathroom"
"I'm here." Jin make his entrance in very extra and dramatic way. Leaving Taehyung in a laughter and Yoongi in disbelief.
"What are you doing here, Taebear?"
"Let's have lunch. Noona invites you to eat together."
"Really? Gosh, I'm so nervous."
"Stop being extra, Hyung." Yoongi nudge Jin's shoulder lightly
Taehyung chuckled.
"May I ask for help? Help me call the others."
"Just say you want to go to Jungkook's room, right? You think I don't know, little boy. You charged your duty to us so that you could stay in Jungkook's room longer, am I right?" Jin asked with a smirk.
"Please" Taehyung pleaded with his puppy eyes.
Of course, Jin and Yoongi can't ignore that. Taehyung's puppy eyes are their weakness.
"Alright. Go there." Yoongi pushed Taehyung's body to leave their room
"Thank you, Hyung"
"Jungkook ah ... Jeon Jungkook ... Jeon bunny Jungkook ... Muscle bunny Jungkook ... Jeon rabbit." Taehyung called when he arrived in front of his man's room.
"Ah, you're really adorable," Jungkook said as soon as he opened the door
Taehyung smiled broadly and threw himself into the arms of his lover.
Jungkook picks Taehyung up and spins him around a little while hugging him.
"What's happen, love?"
"Noona invites you to have lunch together with the other members."
Suddenly Jungkook's body stiffened.
"Just relax, bunny. My sister won't kill you." Taehyung laughed. Leaning his head on the crook of Jungkook's neck.
"Of course not. I'm just, nervous?" Jungkook's sentence came out as a question, making Taehyung laugh even more
"I already talked to Taeeun Noona. It seems like she has started accepting our relationship."
Jungkook kisses the top of Taehyung's head. "Later after lunch, I'll talk to her too."
"What for?"
"To ask her permission and show her how much I love you"
"Aww ..." Jungkook shouted. Taehyung suddenly bit his cheek.
"I really love you, Kookie." He kissed the cheek he bites before
"Me too, baby. I love you very much."
Jungkook pressed his lips against Taehyung's
He chuckled, "It's payback because you bite my cheek."
"Then I'm going to bite your cheek every time." Tahyung pecks Jungkook's lip. "Let's go, others must have been waiting"
Taehyung wrapped his arms around Jungkook's, they walk to the dining room with everyone already there
"Even though I said that I would try to accept your relationship, that doesn't mean you can show off affection right in front of my eyes."
The lunch atmosphere is not so awkward thanks to Soojung, Jin, and Hoseok who are smart in looking for the topic of conversation.
And Yoongi really doesn't understand why Kim Taeeun like Jin's jokes very much. Whereas he thinks it's not funny at all.
"What are we going to do tonight in this super huge mansion? I'm bored" Soojung whine cutely
"Tonight you'll go out with me. That's why I ask you to come to Germany with Taehyung."
"Me? Where are we going, Unnie?" Soojung pointed at her own face
"I still haven't chosen my wedding dress. Not to mention there are still things I need to prepare. I need your help and advice on all of these things. Having a male sibling is not helping at all." Taeeun glanced at her brother who could only chuckle.
"Can I join?" Jin asked hopefully. He really likes shopping.
"Unfortunately, no. Tonight all of you and the staff will come with Taehyung to have dinner with all the board's members."
"You're not coming, Noona?" Taehyung furrowed his brows while chewing strawberries
"Why do I have to go? Take care of your own shit." She shrugged her shoulder nonchalantly
"Besides, all of this collaboration thing is your idea. I don't know what's inside your little head. I don't know what kind of concept you're planning when you're throwing this idea. All of this is your responsibility. The process of production, promoting, marketing, finance, whatever it is, is in your hands. I will not put my hands in it at all." she added
Taehyung then approaches his sister, then hugs her from behind.
"Noona, you really won't help me at all?" said Taehyung throwing his weapon. Pouting lips and puppy eyes.
"No. I'm educating you so that you're always responsible for what you say," she said while caressing the top of Taehyung's head
"At least tonight, come with me."
"Come on, Kim Taehyung. You are a vice president. Dealing with board members shouldn't be a problem for you."
Taehyung snorted in annoyance. He walked away leaving the dining room
"Where are you going, Tae?" Soojung asked
"Works. Don't you see, my boss just gave me a lot of work."
And BTS members, especially Jungkook, feel very guilty.
What Taehyung does, in order to keep their good name, is not a trivial thing. This is a very big responsibility.
Couturelabs is a multinational corporation. It's one of the largest apparel industry in the world.
They have done several collaborations with well-known designers, but this is a different case. BTS has absolutely no experience in the fashion field, let alone designing clothes, shoes, and accessories.
And Taehyung must be in charge for all this.
"We must really work hard for this," Namjoon said.
Currently, the six members are gathering in Namjoon's room. While the staff are discussing with Taehyung about the contract.
"Of course. In order to protect our good name, in order to keep us away from scandal, he is now bearing a heavy burden on his shoulders." Jin leaned against his boyfriend's shoulder.
"We can't play around in this. We can't let Taehyung suffer a loss." this time Jimin said
"OK." Jungkook stood up. "Let's start working now. At least tonight, when we meet with the board members, we already have something to show." Jungkook said excitedly.
He doesn't want Taehyung to constantly fight for him. He also wants to fight for their relationship, for the sake of their love.
"Fighting," Hoseok shouted. "Fighting" followed by the other five members.
"We can do it. At least we can draw and we like fashion. Let's get to work." Namjoon embraces each member to give support.
All of them start to get busy with their laptops and phones. They are looking for inspiration, trying to draw, trying to make designs, even try to mix and match colours.
Namjoon divides their works.
Jungkook and himself got a part to design accessories. At first, the youngest member asked to design shoes, but Namjoon refused, "this is Couturelabs, not Timberland".
Suga and Hoseok got the task to design clothes. Whereas Jin and Jimin are in charge of designing shoes.
"What are you doing?" Sejin suddenly enters the room
"We tried to design, Hyung. What about the contract?" Hoseok put down his phone and looked at the manager.
"Both Couturelabs and BigHit have agreed. Only the consent of you is left. If all of you agree, we can immediately sign the contract. The contents of the contract are BTS will become the global ambassadors for Couturelabs. Not only that, but you will also periodically create your own designs for clothes, shoes, and accessories. For now, it will be a three-year contract with Couturelabs." Sejin gave an explanation to the members who paid close attention to him.
"Ah, let alone three years. Even a lifetime contract doesn't matter to me, as long as it's still Taehyung's company." Jimin said cheerfully.
Other members nod, agree with Jimin's words.
"Ah, Jungkook. Before I came here, I met Taehyung's sister. She said you must meet her now because she wants to talk to you."
Jungkook suddenly froze. He stops functioning. He already said to Taehyung that he will talk to his sister. But is he really ready?
