The flow of slight breeze scattered Jungkook's already messy hair even more as he sat on the rock with a heavy heart.His eyes were filled with tears but he kept wiping them even before they could run down his cheeks.

Currently, he was sitting on a rock on the same hill where all his misery started.He was missing Taehyung way too much that it made him feel weak.That's the reason he came to this place from where Taehyung used to gain his lost strength.Jungkook expected the same for him but unlike Taehyung, he didn't feel strong after coming here.Instead, his heart ached even more, remembering how a good day turned into a nightmare in this same place.

Before visiting this area, he even went to the place where Taehyung made love to him for the last time.But it only made him feel worse.He could see him and Taehyung, laying on the flower bed, loving each other the way they won't let anyone else.The need to feel strong got only intense after remembering their moments.That's the reason he came to the hill, not knowing that it'll only worsen his situation.

Jungkook composed his broken self when he saw his father calling him.He knew what the call was for.So he cut the call, showing that he didn't want to talk to him at the moment.He put the phone on silent mood before sighing heavily.His mind was messed up.

"I don't wanna leave this place.I don't want to stay away from the places where we created all the memories together." Jungkook sniffled, feeling presurrized.Seems like even his parents aren't ready to understand him!

It's been only one month and a week since he last saw Taehyung.It was killing him inside.Unlike everyone, he believed that Taehyung was still there somewhere.Since his body wasn't found in the water after several search operations by the government, Jungkook believed that Taehyung somehow managed to survive.He had to.He knows that Taehyung will find him no matter how much time it takes and that's the reason he doesn't want to leave the country at that moment.

His parents have been presurrising him to go to Norway from the last four days.According to them, a trip will help Jungkook to cope up with his inner pain.Jungkook found their point totally nonsense.Yes, he understands that they are worried for him but can't they see that he doesn't want to go anywhere except his and Taehyung's home, the farmhouse which belongs to his Tae.He has denied his parents suggestion countless times but looks like they were adamant on making him agree to them.

At this point, Jungkook was mad at them.He hasn't talked to them in the last 24 hours but what they did next was unbelievable.They played their parents card and sent a parcel to him.It contained a plane ticket to Norway and a letter which asked him to listen to their suggestion if he loved them even a bit.Jungkook was extremely angry.What did they take him for?Can't they let him be alone for some more time?But then he just decided to listen to them.His life has no meaning without Taehyung beside him anyways.

So, he randomly packed some of the clothes which was in Taehyung's closet the very night.He then wrote a letter, in case Taehyung comes back and can't find him.After wearing a jeans that was his, he wore one of Taehyung's black shirt.The fading smell of the elder in the piece of clothing engulfed his lonely self as soon as he buttoned up the shirt.He didn't bother to look at the mirror and just walked out, carrying his bags.Before walking out of the house, he picked Yeontan up in a bag which Taehyung bought especially for him.Glancing at the house for one last time, he finally got inside the taxi he has booked beforehand.

As he still had a few hours for his flight, he visited the two places Taehyung took him to on their last date.It was still dawn when Jungkook reached that hill top where they made love.He then watched the sunrise from the cliff from where the sun of his life went down.

Jungkook shook his head, not wanting to cry, not when the taxi driver is waiting for him just a bit far from him.Gulping the lump that formed inside his throat, Jungkook finally stood up.He then took firm steps towards the taxi from where he could hear Yeontan's barks.Well, the puppy was sleeping when they reached this place but looks like, it got anxious after waking up next to some unknown man.Jungkook hurried towards the taxi before Yeontan could pull some stunt on the poor taxi driver who was nothing but a nice, middle-aged man.

"Hope I'll see you when I come back, Tae.Until then, I'll keep missing you!"

"Jimin-ah, do I look handsome enough?" Taehyung asked Jimin who bit his lower lip to not laugh at how stupidly excited Taehyung looked.

"Hey, don't you dare to laugh at me."

Jimin raised his eyebrows in a 'oh really?" manner when Taehyung frowned at him.He sighed, rolling his eyes at the younger.

"Who made you a mafia leader?Because as long as I've noticed, you are still the same Taetae I knew." Jimin said, feeling done with Taehyung.

The younger has been trying to style his hair from the last twenty minutes even after Jimin reassured him numeric times about how good he looked.But Taehyung kept trying to look even better because his Jungkook will arrive soon and he wanted to impress the boy after being separated for a while.

"It's just....I'm scared okay? I want to look good enough so that he will have mercy on me and stop himself from strangling me." Taehyung pouted, looking like a kicked puppy.

Jimin couldn't help but smile as he looked at the other.When he came to know that Taehyung was alive, he was the happiest person in the world.But then he got the information of Taehyung joining the mafia.It broke his heart but he still kept searching for the younger.All he wanted was his Taetae back.When his wish of getting Taehyung back got fulfilled, he was kinda scared.He was scared, thinking Taehyung might change as in whole.He expected to see a rough and tough Taehyung who would scare him away just by giving him a murderous glare.

But oh!

How wrong he was!

Taehyung was still the same!

Well, his behaviours and his way of thinking, nothing changed at all.In fact, he was the same Taehyung with a pure heart who hated hurting even a mosquito.Even after fitting the role of Kim V for years, his heart didn't change at all and Jimin was sure that it was possible because of Jungkook.

Taehyung himself has told him how he kept falling into the abyss of infinite darkness with each passing day.Taehyung told him how his training and then work started making him emotionless.He told him how lonely and dark his life had become!

But then...one day...He saw Jungkook...looking like an absolute angel on the sidestreet....

Taehyung was attracted to the boy the moment his eyes landed on him.It was as if Jungkook was the north pole and he himself was the south pole of some bar magnets.He was drawn into Jungkook like the moths get drawn towards the flames.It was insane.Taehyung knew it.But it didn't stop him from wanting the boy to be his and only his.Though he didn't really expect it to come true, Jungkook indeed became his.It was the best moment of his life.He felt like he finally could see a source of light in his dark hollow of a life.

Taehyung got back his long lost sanity only after Jungkook stepped in his life!

"Tae, I'm sure that he'll understand you.Yes, it'll be a bit hard but you'll have to make him listen to you at any cost.And I know for a fact that you'll do it like a pro." Jimin assured the nervous younger and ruffled his hair fondly.

"You are right, Chim.I'll do anything I can to make him forgive me." Taehyung exhaled, finally looking a bit relaxed and also, determined.

"That's my Taetae." Jimin chirped in, smiling proudly.His smile turned into a loving one when he heard the next sentence from Taehyung.

"I'm nervous but more than that, I'm extremely eager to meet him!"
