Once Upon A Broken Heart || Taekook

Chapter 30 - Surprise

Jungkook slowly stirred in his shared bed with Taehyung. He was careful not to disturb the peaceful slumber of the younger beside him. Taehyung lay curled up on Jungkook's chest, his face relaxed and angelic in the dim light.

"Why are you so beautiful, even while sleeping?", Jungkook whispered to himself caressing Taehyung's bread cheeks.

But now was not the time to enjoy the beauty he realized and gently, Jungkook shifted his weight and eased himself out of the bed, making sure not to create any sudden movements that might rouse Taehyung. He tiptoed across the room, moving with the grace of a silent shadow.

Jungkook's bare feet met the cool floor, and he shivered slightly, the temperature difference between the cozy bed and the room noticeable. His gaze occasionally drifted back to Taehyung to ensure he remained undisturbed.

With every step he took, Jungkook's heart danced with a mixture of excitement and tenderness. He had a plan for this quiet moment alone, a surprise for Taehyung, something he'd been preparing for the past few days.

Carefully, Jungkook retrieved a small, beautifully wrapped box from his backpack. It was a gift he had chosen with great thought, a way to express his deep affection for Taehyung. He slipped it into his pocket.

Sitting down at the room's small table, Jungkook began to arrange a bouquet of wildflowers he had picked earlier that day. The soft scent of the blossoms filled the room, adding to the ambiance of the surprise.

As he completed the arrangement, Jungkook gazed over at Taehyung once more. He was still sound asleep, blissfully unaware of the preparations happening around him.

With everything in place, Jungkook made his way back to the bed, sliding in beside Taehyung. He couldn't help but smile at how peaceful and beautiful Taehyung looked in his sleep. Jungkook gently stroked Taehyung's hair, a soft and affectionate gesture.

Then, leaning in close, Jungkook placed a tender kiss on Taehyung's forehead. Taehyung stirred ever so slightly but remained in his peaceful slumber. Jungkook couldn't help but whisper, "Sleep well, angel."

Jungkook walked out of their shared bedroom and immediately closed the door behind him, he thanked the heavens that the room was soundproof, he was sure Taehyung would have woken up with the amount of chaos going on in the living room.

"You guys need to lower it down, he'll wake up.", he said as he walked towards the others.

"Sorry.", Jimin and Jin mumbled lowering their loud voice but continued scolding their great husbands who had one job of writing Taehyung's name with fairy lights on one of the walls but ended up writing something else.

"Come on it was not our fault.", they tried to defend themselves.

Well, it was not their fault fully, it was Yeonjun the Great who suggested they should try something cool and jumbled up the wordings, testing Jimin and Jin's patience who wanted to make the night perfect.

Hoseok was trying his best to fix the damage in the background with a pouting Yeonjun who had the first innings on getting scolded by Jin.

"What's going on though?", Jungkook asked as he walked towards the open kitchen to grab the cake made by Jin.

"Nothing much, just your brothers testing our patience.", Jimin huffed.

"That's not a new thing to you two.", Jungkook said with a duh tone as he placed the cake on the living room's tea table.

Jimin rolled his eyes at the two accused and strolled towards Jungkook. "When are you planning on waking him up?"

Jungkook looked at the clock which was trucking fifteen till twelve, "I was just here to check the cake, I'll go wake him up. Are you guys ready?", he further asked.
