~ 3rd Person POV ~

That night, Taehyung slowly opened his eyes, he felt the need to use the bathroom and that started pulling him out of his deep sleep. With a groan, Taehyung moved Jungkook from his boys and made his way to the bathroom. After taking care of business, he returned to his bed, but his body and mind wanting to go back to sleep with his husband

He tried to go back to sleep there in the dark bedroom but he just couldn't.  Taehyung's thoughts kept circling back to the black box hidden away in his husbands side of the closet. They promised no secrets between each other

They had vowed to be completely open and honest with each other, no matter what. So why did the box fill him with such concern. He knew that Jungkook wouldn't lie to or hurt him

Glancing over at Jungkook, who was still peacefully asleep beside him, Taehyung felt the need to go see what it was. Just one quick peek wouldn't hurt, right?

He rose slowly from his bed and made his way to the walk-in closet. Carefully, he grabbed a stool and held it in his hands. Glancing over, he noticed that Jungkook was still asleep. Quietly, he closed the door. He stood on the stool and grabbed the box

He looked at the box in his hand and sat down in the middle of the closet. One little peek wouldn't hurt. He looked down at it, he attempted to open it but soon realized that it was secured with a 4-digit lock

He rolled his eyes and tried Jungsan's birthday, but the lock didn't budge not one bit, making him sigh. Next, he attempted Sohee's birthday but he did it without success, followed by Jungkook's birthday, yet it remained shut tight. He tried everything but none of it worked. What the actual fuck

Taehyung let out a sigh and wondered what Jungkook cherished most, if it wasn't his kids the what else?

Himself

Without hesitation, he entered the code 1230 and his eyes widened when he heard the click as the box finally opened. Taking a deep breath, Taehyung opened the box wide and what he saw, shocked him more than ever... Four black guns in the box

Taehyung was shocked because why do Jungkook need these? Not one, but four guns in their house. Weren't those illegal in Korea?

He took a deep breath but reaching his hand on to touch it until he was interrupted a voice

"That's a really bad idea"

Taehyung jumped, immediately turning around to  see Jungkook calmly leading against the door of their closet. Lightly shaking his head, he should have known that his husband didn't give up that easily

"You never give up, do you, baby doll?" Jungkook calmly asked him as he walked towards Taehyung,  standing right in front of him.

Jungkook, why do you have all of these things?" Taehyung questioned, worriedly looking at him. Just wanting to know why he had so many

"Baby, hand me the box, let's head back to bed. I know you hate waking up early" Jungkook responded with a gentle smile on his face

"Why do you have these?" Taehyung asked once again, his eyes bore into Jungkook, wanting an explanation. But Jungkook's expression changed in an instant, his sweet gaze turning cold and unfamiliar

"Let's go to bed" Jungkook responded calmly, but Taehyung wasn't having it. Jungkook didn't technically lie to him about having guns since he never told him but he still thought he'd need to know

"No, answer my question!" He demanded once again holding the box to his chest

" Taehyung, give me the box before you hurt yourself " Jungkook asked once again but Taehyung shook his head no, just wanting an explanation

"I will do anything to protect my family" He responded, just wanting Taehyung to give him the box

"Why do you need guns for that? Are you out of your mind?" Taehyung asked him, a frown on his face

"You think you can poison my closet friend and threaten people with knives, but I can't have guns to defend my own fucking family? Ridiculous" Jungkook's tone sharpened as he fired back

"You have no proof of that!" Taehyung raised his voice

Jungkook was about to say something in response when they heard a voice say, "Mommy, Daddy, why are you yelling?" They both turned around and saw Jungsan holding his blanket

"San, go back to bed, okay? Daddy will check on you later, okay?" Jungkook calmly said,

Jungsan nodded and slowly made his way back to bed, his small little figure disappearing out of the room and again, it was just Taehyung and Jungkook

As room fell into a heavy silence, Jungkook took a moment to compose himself and sighed. Showing tenderness towards his husband, he walked over to Taehyung, gently kissing his forehead before picking up the box and closing it with a soft click. He knew that his husband would discover it soon or later

"Let's call it a night Baby" Jungkook murmured, his voice a mixture of exhaustion and regret. Returning the box to its place, Jungkook joined Taehyung in bed, the two settling in for the night.

Taehyung positioned himself at the foot of the bed, while Jungkook stretched out beside him. Th raven let out a small sigh and pulled Taehyung close to his chest. Planting a tender kiss on his husbands forehead

"I just want everything to be perfect" Jungkook whispered, placing his head into his neck, just wanting everything to be perfect when it comes to their little family and their safety. Jungkook would do anything in his power to protect his family

He was going to protect them from any harm
