10: When he makes a promise

##

"I can't believe we're doing this," you tell Jungkook, as you both haul your luggage and make your way across the airport.

"___, we've been together for 4 years. We've taken so many trips in that time," he chuckles, switching bags with you so he's pulling 2 trolleys and you're pulling 1.

"Never alone, though!" You clarify. "We're always with our friends or my parents or Namjoon. This time it's just you and me and I'm really excited."

"So am I, angel. It's a good thing you got to convince your parents and Mr. Han and Namjoon to let you go, then."

"Well, I am with you. You are a trained bodyguard with laser eyes and hands of steel with spidey reflexes," you remind him.

"Okay, I see Jin is getting you into superhero movies now. I'm way better than them, by the way."

"Not really. You're more good-looking though, I give you that," you giggle.

You lean on his shoulder as you await the rental car he'll be driving this whole trip. "But come on, barely anything bad happens in New Zealand."

"True, but we can never be too sure. No one place is ever truly, completely safe. But we're all good, we've got our bases covered," he assures.

"What does that mean?" You turn to him questioningly.

"I've got the police on speed dial."

"You what? Jungkook!"

"By your father's and Mr. Han's orders! We spoke to the station already. They'll always have someone on standby should we encounter anything."

"That is so embarrassing," you frown. "What are we even gonna encounter? Sheep? Birds? Penguins? Even the animals here are harmless."

"People, ___. I'm referring to people," he deadpans. "Remember that trip to Scotland when a man was harassing you? It was a small, safe town and—"

"He thought I was his missing wife! And he only thought that I looked like her because he was drunk on whiskey!"

"That's what he made us believe. We'll never truly know," Jungkook shakes his head.

"Ugh, you guys are—"

"Don't say we're overreacting because I will tackle you to the ground."

You smirk. "What if I want you to?"

Jungkook's face changes. "We'll have plenty of time for that this whole week, okay?" He whispers in your ear, as he notices the man you're waiting for approach both of you.

You bite back a moan at the thought of what's ahead.

You insisted on this trip as a celebration of all sorts - Jungkook had just celebrated his birthday and your 4th year anniversary is in a few weeks. Countering the end-of-year craziness, you both decided to head to the South Island for a week. It's really meant to be a break, knowing that things will get busy again and you just want alone time together.

New Zealand seemed like the perfect place - you could just lay back and enjoy the views and feel like you've already accomplished a lot. You don't really intend on doing many activities while you're here; you just want to drive around and bask in nature and enjoy being the domestic, mature couple that you are who can manage being on their own. The safety of the country and the towns you'll be in convinced Mr. Han that Jungkook is all you'll need.

"Hmm, good thing we'll be staying in secluded properties, huh?" You whisper back. "I can be as loud as I want."

Jungkook chuckles, your playfulness something he's already used to, but he can't help getting turned on at the thought. "Why are we always so horny?"
