As the lanterns faded further into the darkness, spreading their light to the space and the universe they travel to, our couple sat through watching them in silence. Taehyung knew what he wanted to say and Jeungguk was just waiting patiently to know what the other had to say.

He was all ears to his favourite person but the latter seemed to make no such move. Jeungguk didn't want to force him either. So he remained the serene silence between them while it lasts. There was a small fear in the back of the mind that whatever Taehyung was going to say, was not something good.

After a long moment of gathering courage, Taehyung finally began to speak.

"The lanterns happen every year and we come here every year for it." He heard the deep ocean voice suddenly. It didn't scare him. it did startle him, but he wouldn't show it to the other yet.

He turned to look at the other but the other still had his eyes up at the sky. He didn't look like he was looking at the stars, but something far beyond that. "Well that is a beautiful tradition they have. It feels light to burn away all your worries and send them far away in a lantern." I spoke as Taehyung still remained quiet.

"Yes you are right. They take our worries far away. Hopefully to the ones who we want to send it to." What he said then had me shook. What did he mean by the ones who he wanted to send it to?

"Who did you want to send it to, Tae?" I asked. Laced with a concern as well as a streak of caution. I didn't want to touch sensitive subjects if he wasn't ready yet. "To my parents." He said. I didn't reply as he looked like he was about to say something further from that. "To my birth parents. Not Namjoon and Yoongi hyungs'" he said.

"What do you mean by that? You are adopted?" I asked. Carefully, I took the other onto me and laid his head on my chest. He didn't seem to mind as he got himself comfortable on me. I felt him shake his head.

"I am not legally adopted. They just found me. Not they. He just found me." he said. "He?"

"Yeah, he. Namjoon hyung. He found me. I was alone in the streets. I was nine and hyung was ten when he found me. my parents had went a few hours ago and I had stepped out in search of them. I got lost in between. Didn't know where I was until Namjoon hyung saw me. he was coming back from Daegu with his parents then."

I began drawing circles in back for comfort. "You don't have to tell me anything Tae." I said. I didn't want to stress him into telling me. I didn't want him to believe that he had to tell me. he could tell me when he is comfortable.

"No Jeungguk. You told me your past and it is only fair if I told you mine. that would help us understand each other better. If we clear them before, at least we wont have a problem in the future with each other." He said. Wait, future? Is he really considering being with me?

I could feel every cell of my body being overjoyed at the possibility of Taehyung finally being mine. I wouldn't show it to him right now and get my hopes high. So I only hummed for him to continue. "Then tell me everything baby. I will let you take out everything on me." I also settled myself into a comfortable position.

"I had thrashed around because I still hadn't found my parents. But somehow his parents had convinced me to go with them. It was mainly Namjoon hyung and his dimpled smile that made me go with them." He smiled at the memory and I also didn't want to rush him through the story. I lightly patted his hair, to show him that I am still listening.
