"Ketchup, done. Chocolates, done. Bread, done. What else do we need?" Seokjin rounded the corner and stopped at the spot from where they started.

Jungkook opened the list they made before coming here. He first marked three small ticks in front of the things Seokjin just said, "let me check," he said, eyes focused on the small white chit.

"We are done. Just one more thing." He looked up from where he was sitting in the cart, an amused glint in his eyes making Seokjin raise an eyebrow at him.

"What is it?"

"Chilli sauce." He stated and the reason behind that wide smile and impish eyes all made sense to Seokjin, a matching grin of his own drawing out on his face, "okay, so chilli sauce then."

The delightful sound that came out of Jungkook's mouth, when Seokjin pushed the cart briskly, in the same manner he does whenever their three years old daughter pouts at him, demanding his daddy to place her in that metal thing and push here around during grocery shopping, compelled him to place a quick loving kiss on his hair.

They checked every shelf, touring all the aisles in the store but it seemed like the fate wanted them to experience deja vu.
"Is this really happening again?"

"It is." Jungkook answered, head turning from one side to other hoping to locate the sauce, "did we check the last aisle?"
He looked up to find Seokjin shaking his head in 'no' before quickly making his way there, of course, not forgetting to take the cart full of groceries and his husband with him.

"Oh, there it is." He moved forward to take the bottle, "why can't they place a thing at the same pla – "

A little playful titter caused him to look down at Jungkook and then his hand where he clutched the chilli sauce, which he snatched from the shelf just before Seokjin can take it, and was now swaying it in front of him before hiding it under his arm, "it's mine."

Seokjin playfully squinted his eyes at him, "I saw it first, though."

"But I touched it first."

"Oh really, mister?" Despite all his mighty efforts to conceal it, his lips slanted into a lopsided grin.

"Mhm." Jungkook's eyes twinkled gladdened to see his husband's playful stare, "you can't have it."

Seokjin bent his arms, slowly leaning down to rest them on the black shiny handle of the cart, "what if I don't want it?"
He was sure, they must be looking like some cringe couple who can't keep these things at their house but he was also sure that he didn't care a bit. Neither did Jungkook.

He mentally patted himself when he saw that Jungkook, too, tilted his head forward leaving no more than just a fingerbreadth of space between their faces as he looked him in eye, "and why is that?"

He saw Seokjin's gaze flickering down to his lips before coming up again, "why would I need this little glass bottle when I have its owner?"
He swiped a tongue across his bottom lip, not waiting anymore and landing a short, chaste kiss on jungkook's parted lips.

"Still want to argue about it?" Seokjin asked after they separated, beginning to straight up.
Jungkook caught him in the middle, pulling him down to kiss him one more time before leaving him.

"No. I got the man I wanted." He smiled hearing Seokjin chuckle behind him as he slowly made their way to the counter.

"You know what's funny about this whole incident?"

"We married each other." Jungkook responded in a second, "it's romantic too." He pouted.
Seokjin stopped to place another quick kiss on his pout, making him let out pleased hum.

"I'm glad you watched that movie and decided to try its plot on us."

"I'm glad too. Thanks to my smart mind."
He stated with head held up high.

"Yeah, yeah. Here, come out now." He stopped once again, some distance away from the counter, hidden from the view of the cashier.
The customers may not have said anything when they saw them, only weird looks. But the lady behind the counter sure will.
"The cashier will have our heads if she saw an adult sized baby sitting in it."

"She doesn't say anything when Min-ji sits in it."
Seokjin helped him get out of it, receiving a kiss on cheek as a 'thank you'.

"She's three years old and you're 27. Don't sulk now. We've to hurry, we still have to buy a teddy bear for Min-ji.
She threatened to give me no good bye kisses if I don't buy her one. Can you believe it?"
Although, he already knows where she got the idea from. Her appa who was just pouting about not being able to ride in a cart, threatens him like this all the time, after all.

Once, they were done with paying for the items, they exited the store Jungkook glanced at him with big eyes, "I want something too."

"What?" Seokjin shut the back door after placing the bags, looking back at him to see if he has anymore bags.

"Anything. Buy me something too or no kisses for whole day." He ignored the look Seokjin gave him, focusing on fastening the seatbelt instead.
See, this is what he meant when he said their daughter is learning these type of things from his appa.

"You two are brats."

"I know. Now drive the car." He cupped Seokjin's face to turn his face forward, a mirthful laugh escaping when Seokjin shook his head with a faint smile on his face.

He's really glad he watched that movie.
