Third Person POV:
Seok Jin panicked as Jung Kook turned his back at him. “I am being insensitive Babe a-and I’m sorry. P-Please don’t leave…”
“Please…” Seok Jin added with his cracked voice blocking Jung Kook’s way out. “I’m just really tired Babe, Its been a tiring days, weeks and months for me. I-It’s hard, it’s hard and my patience isn’t that good lately.”
“I’m so sorry.” Jung Kook plastered a small smile on his thin lips that makes Seok Jin feel at ease even just a little...
He smiled, he will stay. Seok Jin said to himself as he felt Jung Kook’s palm on his right cheeks, caressing it using his thumb.
Seok Jin closed his eyes feeling Jung Kook’s touch as his tears fell.
“I will stay, I will stay because I love you. I’m so sorry. I got jealous, I’m just afraid you’ll get tired of me and leave me for someone who can give a lot of things that I can’t...”
“I love you so much, I’m so sorry Babe, I’m sorry for stressing you out, I’m sorry, you are in this situation because of me, I’m so sorry–“
“What do you think of a balcony date?” Seok Jin placed his hands on Jung Kook’s lips to cut him off from saying sorry repeatedly.
Jung Kook’s tears fell from his eyes that Seok Jin quickly wiped, but without noticing it, he is crying more with his husband. “I know you are feeling useless sometimes, I know you are feeling bad for me, I know you are sorry for my situation but Babe, don’t be.”
“Because as long as you’re with me, I will be strong, I trust you and I love you we can overcome this together.”
"Together." They both uttered.
Jung Kook wiped Seok Jin’s tears as they sobbed silently looking at each other.
“Am I bad person? Babe, Why this is happening to me? To us?–“
Seok Jin pulls Jung Kook for a hug, he felt cold, he needed warmth. “I’m cold.” Jung Kook mumbles between their hugs and Seok Jin's thought was right.
“You’re warm. You are always been warm for me and will always be. Don’t be afraid about me finding someone else because there’s no one like you in this world.”
“Trust me just like how I trust you Babe.” Jung Kook grin with what he heard from his husband, his cheeks puff making Seok Jin kissed his nose.
“Let’s not talk about me, let’s talk about the sky, at the balcony?” Jung Kook uttered as he offered his hands for Seok Jin to hold.
They sat happily at their balcony, Jung Kook watched Seok Jin sipping his coffee as they admired the blue but turning dark skies making the stars became more visible from time to time they're looking.
Its so peaceful up there, the moon looks like it was like smiling, but the stars was far that made the moon sad, moon is tricky sometimes, when you'll look at it on the other side. Jung Kook thought as he lifts one of his legs to cross it, kicking in gently in the air, enjoying the skies.
“Babe? Can you promise me one thing?” Jung Kook turn to look at Seok Jin whom he caught already looking at him with sadness in his eyes.
“I won’t s-so don’t.” Seok Jin honestly said and immediately avoid Jung Kook’s eyes.
“Please? Hear me out first–“
“I won’t, because when I do allow you, I’m afraid that you’re just slowly letting me go, slowly getting me prepared for leaving.”
“I won’t promise you a thing because when it comes to you I am not ready to get hurt.” Seok Jin wiped his tears as he grab Jung Kook’s hands putting it back on its place before.
Feeling the gesture of tenderness Jung Kook cupped Seok Jin’s face kneeling down in front of him. “Can you promise me that you will stay happy?”
“I am happy, I am Jung Kook so please stop saying nonsense? Huh? Don’t scare me like that. I love you, but hearing you saying that–“
Seok Jin sobs before he swallowed the lump forming on his throat before saying… “I can feel that you are getting tired of me, you are getting tired seeing me drain and exhausted. T-That’s why I am always telling you not to stick around me.”
“J-Just do what you wanted to do, then at night I want to hear some stories from you, about you, having fun from the person you are with.”
“From the surrounding you choose to watch, from the animals you choose to adore, f-from the children on the street, a-at park... D-Do all of the things that you love...”
“You are my happiness Jung Kook, but to be honest, I noticed your changes. I noticed your worries, I noticed you slowly g-giving up.”
“You don’t want to discuss it but you already heard it from them. You already know that what you are doing has an effect to yourself.”
“I am just asking you to be strong, c-can you please do that for me? Please Babe? For me?” Seok Jin pleads while his left hands was holding his throbbing chest, his right hands is resting on Jung Kook’s shoulder.
“I’m sorry.” Are the only words came out from Jung Kook’s mouth, Seok Jin cried harder not letting go of Jung Kook's hands on his cheeks even if his chest was giving him a hard time to breathe, Seok Jin still choose to hold the man who made him feel love and wanted, trapping Jung Kook’s hand in between his shoulder and his neck, Seok Jin cries quietly.
Seok Jin gestures Jung Kook to sit back on his chair and when Jung Kook did, he rests on top of Jung Kook’s lap.
“Stay by my side, you came to my dark and lonely world making me feel loved by bringing some lights using your adorable smile and consistency.”
“A-And I fell from the brightest light I have, and that’s you.”
“And even if I sometimes feel empty for being dull, its just because sadness, worries and possibilities that might happen for tomorrow is eating me up.”
“But I’m still holding on because I trust you. So please don’t ask me to be happy alone, let’s be happy together Jung Kook.” Seok Jin says closed eyes as he transferred Jung Kook’s right hand on his left cheeks while his right cheeks was resting of Jung Kook’s shoulder comfortably.
“Will do Babe, anything for you.” Jung Kook whispers watching Seok Jin fall asleep.
Your face is in peace but your mind is fighting at wars, wars where I am involved in, it’s loud in arguments with your own feelings. Jung Kook thought.
