Author's POV:

Taehyung stirred in bed, his eyes fluttering open from a restless sleep. He glanced at the clock and sighed; it was yet another early start to a hectic day.

It was still dark outside as the sun was not up.

The upcoming opening ceremony and the new project were consuming all of Taehyung's time and energy, leaving silver-head drained and stressed.

Quietly, he slipped out of bed, careful not to disturb Jungkook, who was still nestled under the covers.

Jungkook always asked Tae to wake him up so he could prepare breakfast for him however, Tae would shrug him off saying he could eat from his office cafeteria anytime and there was no need for Jungkook to ruin his sleep so early in the morning, especially when he spent the whole night working on his paintings...

Kook even tried to put an alarm one day but Tae turned it off and strictly asked him to sleep.

Brunette was reluctant but one glare from Tae and he would be found under the covers with closed eyes.

Taehyung's heart ached slightly as he looked at his husband, wishing he could stay a little longer. He could not help the burst of affection he felt while watching Kook's angelic face. Leaning down, he pressed a soft kiss to Jungkook's forehead, "My baby"

Jungkook stirred slightly but didn't wake up. An unconscious smile graced Tae's lips as he pulled the covers up to Kook's shoulders, making sure he was comfortable.

He quickly dressed and grabbed a piece of toast on his way out, scribbling a quick note and leaving it on the kitchen counter:

"Gone to the office. Take care
      -Tae."

As the days passed, the routine became a blur. Taehyung's mornings began before dawn and ended well after the sun had set.

The weight of his responsibilities bore heavily on his shoulders, and he found himself drowning in meetings, phone calls, and endless preparations.

Each day, he woke up before Jungkook and left without a proper breakfast or goodbye.

Each night, he came home exhausted, finding Jungkook either asleep on the living room couch or waiting up for him, a concerned look on his face.

Jungkook watched the toll it was taking on Taehyung. Each evening, he would prepare dinner, hoping Taehyung would come back at time, but more often than not, he found the food untouched.

The worry gnawed at him, but Taehyung's determination to succeed left little room for rest or proper meals.

Jungkook wanted to help, yet Taehyung always insisted that he could handle it.

One night, Jungkook tried to talk to Taehyung about it. "Love, I think you need to slow down. You're going to burn yourself out if you keep going at this rate."

Taehyung smiled weakly, "I know, Kook. But this is important. It's just for a little while longer."

Jungkook sighed, knowing that arguing wouldn't help. He just hoped that Taehyung would realize how much he was pushing himself before it was too late.

One particularly busy afternoon, Taehyung was in the middle of a meeting with his team, discussing the final details for the upcoming ceremony.

His vision began to blur, and he felt a wave of dizziness wash over him. He gripped the edge of table with his hands and tried to shake it off, focusing on the presentation in front of him, but his body had reached its limit.Just as he was about to speak, everything went black...
