I Still Want You [Taekook] - Chapter 59: Chapter 59

Seoul - October 2018
No One's P.O.V
This two-week, BigHit vacated BTS's schedule. Because tomorrow, they had to leave for Germany to attend Taehyung's sister's wedding which will be held in four days.
"Kookie, can I go shopping with Jimin and Jin Hyung?" Taehyung asked. The red-haired man just arrived in the dorm about five minutes ago.
"What do you want to buy, dear?"
"Some clothes? Pretty please. Gucci released a limited edition shirt."
"You have your own well-known clothing brand, but it's still Gucci." Jungkook stroked his lover's hair. "Have you told Namjoon Hyung and Yoongi Hyung?"
"Jimin and Jin Hyung told them."
"Alright. But you have to be careful. If necessary, ask Sejin Hyung to tag along, surely there will be people who spot, follow, and even tried to take photos of you three secretly."
"It's okay, Kook. We're going to be fine."
Both Taehyung and the members don't need to hide from the public anymore. Since they became 'business partners', it's no longer become the topic of talk when they are seen together in a public place. That's why Taehyung has been hung out with the members several times, including Jungkook. Even though in Jungkook's case, he must be more careful. At least, nowadays, people know that they are not strangers. And it's more than enough for Taehyung.
Taehyung, Jin, and Jimin go to the mall by driving the older's car. During the trip, they are very excited. They love shopping, but, actually, they hate the crowds, the queues, and the aching feet.
While at the mall, they go from one store to another. Each of them tries on many different outfits while the other two would pass the judgements or comments. The three of them would try on jackets, shirts, pants, boots, and even hats.
All the special deals tempting them to spend even more, but unfortunately, or maybe, fortunately, they need to finish their shopping. They are only done buying when their hands are loaded with shopping bags and they could no longer carry other bags.
After their shopping session, they head to a restaurant and then go back to the dorm after left in the afternoon five hours ago.
Arriving at the dorm, Jin calls the members to gather in the family room because Taehyung bought them something.
Actually, both Jin and Jimin, have banned Taehyung from doing so. After all, even though they knew that Kim Taehyung was very rich, but Gucci jackets are too expensive as gifts for others.
Taehyung received the same response when the other members opened their own shopping bags given by Taehyung.
But the young entrepreneur shrugs off while saying "Come on. You can't refuse gifts from other people. This is one manifestation of my love and affection for all of you. Besides, I will be very happy, if later at the concert, all of you wear these jackets. "
Taehyung himself chose all the jackets for the members, and it must be admitted that the handsome man's fashion taste is truly excellent.
He chooses a decoratively embroidered corduroy jacket for himself,
a bright floral and koi carp embroidered satin bomber jacket for his boyfriend,
a tiger print denim jacket for Hoseok,
for Namjoon he takes a bomber jacket with puppies embedded in it,
a Gucci jacket with flower print embeds at the front and a big tiger print at the back for his bestie,
a simple Monaco jacket with symbolic Gucci logos embedded in it for his oldest brother,
and the last but not least, for his Yoongi Hyung, he chooses a red wool jacquard jumper.
(BTS's fashion for AMA. Except Yoongi's, it's from their DNA MV)
Taehyung just finished taking a shower and immediately hugged his lover who's lying on the bed.
"Kook..."
"Hmm?"
"If I ask for something from you, will you grant it?"
"I'll try, but it depends on what you ask for. If you ask me to leave you, certainly, I won't be able to do it."
Taehyung hit Jungkook's chest
"Stupid. Of course, I won't ask for it"
"Then what do you want, baby?"
"I want to spend my time with you tonight, Can I?"
"Of course you can. Aren't we doing it now?"
"That's not what I mean. Let's go on a date tonight."
Jungkook looked at his boyfriend confused.
"Just this time, I beg you."
"Alright. I'll tell Namjoon Hyung and Sejin Hyung first. You get ready."
Their first destination is the cinema.
Obviously, they become the centre of attention, but tonight, their purpose is to spend time together, so they don't have the time to think about other people.
They, Taehyung more precisely, decided to watch unpopular films just because they don't want to be surrounded by too many people. Both Jungkook or Taehyung don't care about the film, for them the most important thing is the presence of each other.
The second destination is the Ice Cream Parlour. It's night time and a little bit cold, but Taehyung still insists to eat a strawberry ice cream with his Kookie.
The last place is the Han river. They sit on the grass, far from other people, to just chill out and admire the bright lights and still waters, talk about anything and everything.
On the way back to the dorm, not a single word is said between the two, they enjoy the ride in comfortable silence, at least for Jungkook who's focused on driving, but not for Taehyung.
The skinny man looks at the side window, trying to hide his face from Jungkook. He cried. Happy tears.
His dream of having a date in public places with Jungkook, finally come true. Even without holding hands, hugging, or even kissing like other couples, for Taehyung this is more than enough and he can't ask for more.
This is their first date, and it will probably be the last. Taehyung doesn't know. One thing for sure, he wants to keep this moment in his memory forever.
Arriving at the dorm, the other members already asleep. Because tomorrow they will go to Germany together, so Taehyung decides to stay overnight.
"I want you to spoil me tonight."
"That's easy," Jungkook said while smirking
"Then hug me until I fall asleep."
"With pleasure, my prince."
Taehyung heard soft snoring, his lover has fallen asleep. The arm that hugged him began to loosen.
Taehyung draws circles at his boyfriend's chest, instead of waking up, Jungkook drifts off to deeper slumber.
"I love you yesterday, I love you today, I will love you tomorrow, and I will love you... "his voice is stuck. Tears forced to fall down on his cheeks. " until forever," he whispers, completing his sentence.
"If in the end, you fall in love with someone else, at least let me have the best place in your heart and your memory. Whatever happens, I hope you are happy with or without me."
Somehow, tonight, Taehyung can't fall asleep. All he wants to do is looking at the peaceful face of his boyfriend who is sleeping beside him.
"Thank you for being with me until this second. I love you Jeon Jungkook, with my whole life."

"Make sure there is no passport left. Check your belongings, wallet, handphone. Check again to see if you already bring all the things you need." Said Namjoon to all members and Taehyung who are preparing to go to the airport. Sejin Hyung has been waiting in the basement since ten minutes ago.
Suddenly Jungkook's cellphone ring with his father's name on the screen. The muscular man is hesitant to answer the call, but his boyfriend holds his hand gently, saying "Answer it, maybe there is something important."
And sure enough, his father told that his wife, Jungkook's mom, slipped in the hospital bathroom when she wanted to help grandma.
Right now, Jungkook's mom is unconscious with a wound on his head which requires stitching. Mr Jeon asked Jungkook to come to the hospital, but he refused. After everything they did to him, why should he care?
"At least come briefly for grandma. She must be blaming herself now. I really want to come along, but it looks like my presence will only make things worse. So we will meet at the airport later." Taehyung said. He kisses Jungkook's forehead and lips, gives a soothing warm hug.
The other members in agreement with Taehyung's words and asked Jungkook to at least meet his grandmother to comfort her. Finally, Jungkook agrees to visit the hospital.
"Jungkook," Taehyung called when his lover opened the door.
"Yes, love?"
"I love you. See you again."
