THE WIZARD [vkook]

62: Sky full of love

The time finally arrived where Jungkook and Taehyung go to find Zuzu and reunite with her.
Taehyung was so excited! He kept talking the whole morning about how he missed her and he can't wait to see her. While Jungkook was more reserved and smiling at his cute....Boyfriend? Can he call him that? No....Not yet...Well, he didn't ask it yet... Uh...Should he?

Why was he getting nervous?!

Jungkook frowned with wide eyes not listening to the other anymore but focused on his own thoughts. He hadn't felt nervous about things that much before. But thinking of asking him to actually word this out and ask him to be his boyfriend felt scary. He wasn't afraid of getting rejected....They were going to be together right? Then...Why was he nervous????

"what's wrong? You look...Funny" Taehyung said. He wasn't sure what kind of expression the wizard had on his face right now. But it sure looked odd.

"oh...Uh.. Nothing, I uh. Was just thinking if we should call her now. We are already quite far from the city" Jungkook made up and pretended to look back at the city that was in the distance.  They stood somewhere on the big field next to it.

"Sure, here you go. This is yours" Taehyung handed Jungkook the whistle he was gifted before and watched him. Watching Jungkook take the whistle and blow into it for a good three seconds before lowering his hand and wait.

"She might take a moment."

"okay, so.....'' Taehyung nervously fiddled at the edges of his shirt. It wasn't cold outside right now. The sun was quite warm. Like an early spring warmth. Flowers blooming around their feet And the birds chirping in the trees nearby. It was almost out of a painting.

Jungkook noticed the nervous fiddling and reached out grabbing Taehyung's hand. He smiled at the surprised human. "no need to be nervous around me" Jungkook chuckled. As if he wasn't nervous himself just a minute ago.

"i knowww....I can't help it. My heart just goes all booosh!'' Taehyung cutely made an explosion sound effect with his mouth and his free left hand. "sorry"

"You are so cute" Jungkook smiled and swung their hands back and forth.
They inched closer together and were about to talk again when out of nowhere they felt a strong push on their backs and they got knocked forward into the grass.

"ah!"

Behind them they heard a heavy thud and a long turtle growl.

*wruaaaaah*!

The two got on their feet and looked back with happy faces. Zuzu was there, she looked even bigger than before. She looked healthy. It was a huge relief for Jungkook to see she was doing so well.

"Zuzu, my friend. I am back" Jungkook said and hugged her nose. Taehyung in his turn did the same.

"hello Zuzu, i missed you too. I don't know if you even remember me. But I promise I'm very nice to Jungkook and will take care of you too-ah!" Taehyung again got knocked over by Zuzu's push with her nose. A cute sound left her.

"She likes you. And she remembers you. So you're more than welcome to return on her back '' Jungkook said with a chuckle. He offered Taehyung a hand.

"how do you know that?"

"if she didn't like you she would eat your legs off."

"wha-"

"im Jokiinnggg" jungkook kept holding taehyung's hand and pulled him against him. Like usual with a swift jump their rose up so high that they landed on Zuzu her back. "maybe"

"yah!"

"Zuzu sweetie, fly south. Big circle around Ouvasta city. We don't want to go too far."

Zuzu hummed in reply and began to take off. The two held onto the fence on the edge of her garden shell while she flew up. Flapping her flippers to get up higher and higher.
