“Don't worry Hyung, uncle kim had told him all the directions.” Taehyung nodded and quickly sat on the lone chair in the corner. Not feeling energetic anymore.

His eyes went towards his hyungs (Namjin), he smiled, noticing that they must be bickering because Namjoon Hyung must have broken something because of his clumsiness.

“Joonie, how many times do I have to tell you to look at the front when you are doing something? It's good that it was just the mattress, but what if it was something precious or sharp, you could have gotten hurt.” Jin scoldee Namjoon, whose work was to set the mattress according to the number of people and also blankets, if they feel cold late at night.

But he tripped on one of them, falling on the floor, it was good that the mattress was underneath him and Jin also came on time. “I am sorry Jinnie.”

“Okay, I forgive you. Now do what I am saying, also leave it on me. Just help me arranging on the ground.” With that both Namjin couples got busy arranging the seating arrangements. In short every couple was helping each other, Sometimes having their sweet bickering in between.

Taehyung's eyes lightened up seeing Jungkook coming inside with a few men who brought the woods and kerosene, or everything which is needed for grilling. Taehyung quickly get up running towards Jungkook. He waited for almost an hour for Jungkook, feeling like God knows what wheel in front of so many couples. All the kids got tired while playing so they slept, so he couldn't even engage his time with them.

“Baby- babu, stop waiting there. Lemme put these things in a safe place. Otherwise you will get hurt.” Jungkook said worriedly, Taehyung nodded like an obedient kid stopping on his track. Jungkook quickly told them to arrange the woods for the bonfire and some for the grill. They nodded and walked away doing their work.

Taehyung couldn't hold himself back and threw himself on Jungkook, wrapping his arms around his neck, burying his face on the crook of his neck. Jungkook laughed, “Baby, I am sweaty and maybe stinky.” he said, wrapping his arms around his tiny waist.

“I don't care. Do you know how lonely I was feeling all this time? Who told you to do this? I wanted to help you, but I couldn't.”  He said with a pout. Jungkook chuckled. “It was my punishment. Otherwise Dad assigned some maids to do the work. But I was whining that I want to go to you, so they told me this. Said if I didn't do this then I want to see you till everything is prepared. I can't let that happen, so I agreed to do this.”

“Stupid, if you've waited for a few minutes. You could have eventually seen me. We are also trying to convince our moms to let us help you all, but when I came here I couldn't even find you.” Jungkook shyly grinned. “I didn't know. I thought if I agreed to this then they would allow me to be with you.” He said pulling Taehyung even closer.

“Shut up, next time I will show you what the third, no seventh, no, thirteenth wheeling feels.” Taehyung said cutely with a big pout counting with his fingers. Jungkook cooed. “But baby there are only five  couples after us, so why thirteenth it should be eleventh naah.” He said softly, tugging Taehyung’s hair behind his ear. Who whined.

“Nooo, even Soobin and Yeonjun made me feel like I was interfering with them.”

“Oh my baby. Ok, I am sorry. I won't repeat this again.” Jungkook replied, grabbing his left ear with his fingers. Taehyung chuckled, cupping his face. “Ok, I forgive you but in one condition, you will grill meat for me tonight.”

“Ok, whatever my sweet highness says his peasant will do.” Jungkook said with a bow. Taehyung flicked his imaginary long hair like a sassy diva queen and walked away, Jungkook following him with a wide smile. They both went towards Mr and Mrs. Jeon who were organizing the vegetables, and meat.
