"I can never be happy!" Jungkook exclaimed, his voice filled with despair.
"I don't deserve happiness. Nothing seems to go right, everything messes up whenever I try."
Tears welled up in his doe eyes, and Taehyung couldn't bear to see them fall. "I...

THIRD PERSON POV
The sound of laughter filled the air as a small group gathered by the shore to grill fish. Two elderly couples and three best friends enjoyed the moment together.
"Hey Jiminie, can you pour me some?" Taehyung asked, handing his glass to Jimin.
Jungkook felt a bit left out when the elderly couple handed him a bottle of milk instead of alcohol. He wanted to join in with his older friends, but he didn't want to break his good boy image. Tough choice, huh?
"Jungkook! Come and get some food," Grandma said as she put a grilled fish on Jungkook's plate.
"Come on, don't be shy," Grandpa encouraged while cooking.
Taehyung and Jimin were already feeling a bit tipsy from the drinks they were having, and the older couple didn't mind, wanting the boys to have a good time.
After finishing their dinner, the energetic pair sang and stumbled on their way up the stairs, with Jungkook following behind to join them in the room.
The three of them entered the guest room, which was already set up with mattresses on the floor.
"Jimin, go sleep in the corner, I want to sleep with my Kookie," slurred Taehyung, hugging Jungkook, who was blushing.
In the room, there were three mattresses: one in the corner and two pushed together. Taehyung jumped onto the double mattress with Jungkook, who was trying to escape his hold while a blush crept onto his cheeks.
Jimin was rambling, "Jeon Yoongi, just wait for me to return to Busan..." and soon he closed his eyes, slipping into a dream where his Yoongi was galloping in on a white horse.
Jungkook lay awake, caught between his feelings of insecurity and the comforting warmth of his hyung, Taehyung. His mind raced with thoughts, reminding him of how he had ignored his true feelings and his attraction to the same gender.
Time went by, and Jungkook remained in his hyung's embrace. Eventually, he surrendered to his feelings and relished the cozy warmth, quickly drifting off into a peaceful sleep.
Water sprayed onto Jungkook's face, and he heard a sweet giggle right after. He was still trying to figure things out when a loud, stern voice called out, "YUN HEE!" As Jungkook wiped his eyes to see better, he noticed a little girl being tickled by Taehyung, who was also soaked.
Taehyung was playfully tickling the girl, who was giggling and chatting adorably while he teased her, saying, "I was curious about where that little monster went!" He continued to tickle her for a few minutes before finally stopping to let her breathe. Meanwhile, Jimin was still fast asleep, his hair damp from water.
Jungkook was lost in the beautiful scenery, his eyes filled with affection. Out of nowhere, he sensed someone looking at him-a sweet gaze from a girl he thought was close to Taehyung.
The girl broke free from Taehyung's hold and approached Jungkook, her eyes wide and her finger pointing at him. "Who are you?!" she exclaimed.
Jungkook let out a soft laugh before introducing himself, saying, "I'm Jungkook, and you are?" He flashed his adorable bunny smile and reached out his hand for a shake, causing the girl to blush and feel shy. As she gently touched his hand, she felt a spark and replied sweetly, "I'm Yun Hee! I live just a few houses down!" She beamed at him, and Jungkook nodded in response. Just then, Taehyung pulled Yun Hee back and said, "Alright, now go give us some space. We'll be down in a bit."
Jungkook then rummaged through his suitcase for a casual outfit and headed into the bathroom, while Taehyung was busy trying to wake up Jimin, who was still fast asleep.
Jungkook was the first to get ready, leaving his messy best friends behind in the room as he bounded down the stairs.
"Good morning!" he called out as he entered the kitchen, where his grandma was busy making breakfast with Yun Hee lending a hand.
Yun Hee's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly pulled out a chair for Jungkook. However, he, not realizing it was for him, took a seat at a different chair, leaving Yun Hee feeling a bit disappointed.
"Good morning, where are the others?" Grandma inquired as she settled into her seat.
"They had a few too many drinks, so they are taking a little longer," Jungkook replied, awkwardly scratching the back of his neck.
While they awaited the others, Yun Hee decided to engage Jungkook in conversation. "So, Jungkook! How old are you?" she asked. "Well, I am in my final year of high school, so that would make me your oppa," Jungkook joked.
Yun Hee appeared somewhat taken aback. "Oh, I am in my second year of high school! But you certainly look younger than you are!" she exclaimed in surprise.
Before Jungkook could respond further, Taehyung and Jimin bounded down the stairs. "He's definitely a bunny hybrid!" Taehyung teased, playfully ruffling Jungkook's hair, which made Jungkook mentally huff in annoyance.
He swatted Taehyung's hand away, trying to maintain some semblance of composure. "Hyung, stop it! I'm not a bunny!" he protested, though the corners of his mouth twitched in amusement.
Jimin chimed in, a mischievous glint in his eyes. "But you do have those big, adorable eyes, Jungkook! It's hard not to think of you as a cute little bunny!" he laughed, joining in on the playful teasing. Jungkook rolled his eyes, but he couldn't help but smile at their antics.
Yun Hee responds somewhat defensively, saying, "But Taehyungie oppa! You honestly look like a tiger!" This prompts everyone to burst into laughter, and Taehyung adds to the fun by playfully roaring, causing even more laughter.
