Wisconsin VI

Hello, my loves!~♡ I hope that you all are well.:3 I just finished work so I have my daily dose of serotonin running through my system.🤣😂 I am always in a better mood after work but I think that's because I have to move loads of heavy boxes.😂🤣 I start off in a bitchy mood, throwing and flinging boxes and having a fit, I suppose. Alas, it's never intended but I suppose that is me still processing my grief.🤣😂 I have to be my mom's rock though, that was her baby brother. So that might be why work is where my emotions take place.😂🤣 It's honestly the only time my mind is extremely vulnerable because I kind of shut down and allow my brain to rest while I go into auto-pilot mode.🤣😂 I am excited though because November is a challenge month for me!~♡ On NaNoWriMo, they have a challenge to write 50,000 words in 30 days.:3 I have accepted the challenge and fully intend to complete it so I'm kicking it into overdrive on writing this month.:3 Now, for this chapter there isn't anything particularly too triggering in this chapter, although there are some emotional moments and minor mention of sexual content. So please be advised when reading, my loves~♡ Without further ado, I hope that you'll enjoy this chapter~♡♡♡

Later that day, with Hoseok and Yoongi keeping Taehyung distracted until he fell asleep, Jungkook snuck out of their hotel room once more. Rather than go drinking like he did last time, he approached a barber shop as Yoongi had suggested. Without hesitation, Jungkook entered and planned to get his hair cut in a different style than what he was used to having. All for the sake of his actions speaking louder than his words.

The day had finally come and Taehyung was inside the dressing room, preparing the last tiny adjustments to his tuxedo. Jungkook had been in a separate dressing room all day because he had a surprise for Taehyung that he refused to compromise on. He wanted Taehyung to be surprised at the altar not beforehand so Taehyung reluctantly agreed to separate dressing rooms for this matter. Just to make Jungkook happy for their special day.

Taehyung nervously bit his lip at the thought of tying Jungkook down. Was he actually okay with this decision? Jungkook wasn't just doing this to appease him? Taehyung stared at himself in the mirror, biting his lower lip as this thought occurred to him. He sighed softly as Hoseok stepped into the dressing room with a large and excited smile, only to discern the unsettled look on Taehyung's face. Hoseok's smile dropped the moment he noticed that expression on Taehyung's face. "What's wrong, Tae?" Hoseok asked with concern, his eyes wide as Taehyung's expression twisted with agony. Taehyung's eyebrows drooped low over his eyes while Hoseok considered him more a kicked puppy than a man getting married in mere moments. "Do you think Jungkook is marrying me because... because he pities me?" Taehyung finally asked, his voice low as if it'd disappear if he spoke louder than that. Hoseok sighed heavily at Taehyung's question and shook his head in disbelief. "No," Hoseok answered in an honest deadpan, staring hard at Taehyung as he continued to speak. Approaching Taehyung as he straightened up Taehyung's bow tie. "He truly loves you, Tae. You were literally all he thought about at work. I say you're just thinking that because you're too frightened to accept the fact that someone as honest and loving as Jungkook could love you. Am I right?" Hoseok asked firmly as Taehyung's eyes widened at that response, hating that Hoseok could see right through him right now. "I- I guess so," Taehyung stammered out, trying to avoid Hoseok's gaze as Hoseok stared at Taehyung hard.

"You guess so? I know you find him attractive. Do you still think that he'd find you repulsive the worse your cancer gets and leave you for someone who he thinks is better looking?" Hoseok asked just as firmly, striking a nerve within Taehyung. Taehyung cast his eyes toward the ground as Hoseok sighed softly at Taehyung's thoughts. "Tae, Jungkook doesn't just love you for your appearance, you should know that. He loves with his whole heart. It's not superficial. He's positively exhilarated to marry you today. I think you should take that into great consideration before you question why he's doing something," Hoseok reasoned tenderly, stepping away from Taehyung with a positively radiant smile. Taehyung felt emotions well within him at Hoseok's words, nodding hastily for ever questioning Jungkook's loyalty. He fought the tears that pricked his eyes, offering a soft smile of his own as Hoseok pushed Taehyung from the dressing room with a brilliant smile. When Taehyung's eyes landed on Jungkook, the emotions he'd choked back during his talk with Hoseok rushed to the surface again as tears fell from his eyes now. The scene of Jungkook standing under a white trellis interwoven with red and blue roses while the setting sun cast pink and lilac hues over the clouds hanging overhead was breathtaking. The part that made Taehyung emotional was Jungkook's new appearance as he smiled at Taehyung and offered him his hand. Hoseok pushed Taehyung forward as he had remained frozen in place, Taehyung stumbling over his own feet as fresh tears rolled past a soft and loving smile. Taehyung ran his fingers over Jungkook's buzzed haircut, pressing his forehead to Jungkook's as he cried softly at the love and support Jungkook was offering him.
