After the shower the two made dinner, Quick and simple raman with veg and pork .
Afterwards Jk suggested some karaoke and Tae nodded enthusiastically . "I'll meet you in there "he said running back towards the kitchen . He grabbed a couple cans of beer from the fridge.Jk had the system all set up and running in no time ."hmmm what to sing first" said Tae..
They ended up singing every k drama ost they knew, plus tried some they didn't, they then tried English duets and laughed at their terrible attempts ."If the rest of the group could see us now I think we'd be kicked out " laughed Tae.
"Its only because its in English " said JK a little sulky .Tae kissed his pout away over and over until JK had to playfully push him away and say enough.. laughing as he said this he then flopped on top of one of the giant bean bags breathlessly.
Tae pulled a bean bag up next to JK and sat down. He reached out his hand and took JKs , lacing his own fingers though his . He stared at it for a moment and then brought it up to his mouth and kissed JKs wedding ring. " I love you " he said. "And .. thank you for last night, "Jk did blush at this reminder ,Tae continued, "It was one of the most amazing nights of my life...I should have asked though this morning, how are you ? are you Okay ?"
Jk thought for a moment and decided honestly was best for them to move on no matter how difficult he found it to talk about.
"It felt invasive at first, and a little uncomfortable, I also felt a little embarrassed, but it also felt good, like really good " he was blushing so hard but carried on " I felt even more turned on. I can't explain it , like electricity was running through me setting nerves alive I didn't know I had. " He lowered his face and went to hide behind his hands but Tae caught them before he did " Thank you , " he said full of sincerity and love .
Tae thought for a minute,gathering his words. "Seeing you like that , completely free to feel was just as much a turn on for me. It's going to sound corny but it was almost like we were one and everything you felt I felt ..I can't wait to try again..but when you're ready "he added quickly so Jk didn't feel pressured.
"I must admit, "said JK "talking about it is difficult, but I'm glad we can talk to each other about this, and also...I'm getting really horny with all this talk of last night. But .... there's something I want to do first. "
He took a breath and squeezed Taes hands, "That day when we were torn apart and I was sent to Jeju Island, and I couldn't contact you was pure hell for me""me too "said Tae, "imagining all you were going through was killing me, and I only coped because I started making vlogs for you and I wrote you a song "
Tae sat up excitedly, "have you finished it ? Will you sing it for me ? " JK nodded
"Is not perfect.."he warned, ," I have the melody in my head as I've not been to the studio but yeah I'm ready to sing it for you.."He stood up and grabbed one of the microphones. Tae settled back on the sofa tucking his legs up to the side and waited...
Jk took a deep breath and then Tae was mesmerised as his husband's beautiful tenor voice started to sing...

OUR STORYJK looked up a little shyly when he didn't hear anything from Tae and when he did it was to see Tae had tears streaming down his face..he rushed over to the sofa and bent down. "What's wrong ? " he asked ,Tae was so choked up he could barely speak but eventually he whispered "that was beautiful"
No other words , they held each other like that for a while, it had been emotional for both of them, and the words poiniant and true.
"Do you think we will ever be accepted ?"asked JK quietly , the tears had subsided and all was quiet .
Tae shook his head slowly "who knows , I would like to think that even if our marriage can't be recognised, the people of Korea would accept us. Dont you ? "Jk thought about it for a moment.."our closest friends and family have , in fact that was easier than I'd dared dream, but im worried about Bang , he's scared , we are literally the foundations of his company , and he is worried about people's reaction.... well. I hope that's all it is , him being worried and not being homophobic. Business Bang I reckon we can get onto our side but not if he's just a bigot"
"I reckon. " said Tae tentatively "I reckon Army will be split , if I'm honest, we have the non shippers and taekook shippers , they'd be happy but I've seen people link you and I with other members and that's going to cause a problem . Do you think we would survive as a group the backlash ?" He asked worriedly.
"I think that our group would survive! And we would gain new supporters from the LGBT community, we have several American famous friends that would help us too, I think we should talk to Bang , he took a risk when he formed his company and our group , he stuck by us and we've stuck by him, we have a platform that reaches millions of people, I think he should take a chance again" JK looked at Tae trying to gage his response.
Tae looked at Jk , wow the night had turned serious all of a sudden, he thought, but JK had a point, they'd been all over the world, their voice and opinion mattered, maybe.. just maybe they had a chance.
"Let's try " he said "let's talk to RM and the others, let's find the right time and play by the rules for a bit , but yeah , I don't want to hide you , I want to scream it to the world you're my husband. "
Jk practically jumped in Taes arms with happiness "we can do this ,"he said kissing Tae , Tae smiled and kissed him right back. "Now can I take you to bed ? " he asked , Jk giggled and nodded.
