I still remember how the moon lit the night sky,

The coldest air couldn't cool the fire in your touch,

In that moment, I felt alive, whole, and free,

We became one, and you forever became mine.

9 years back,

Taehyung parks his bike outside the club, the engine's hum dying down as he steadies it on its stand. Jungkook, who had been holding onto Taehyung's back throughout the ride, jumps off with excitement radiating from him. The grin on Jungkook's face is infectious, and Taehyung can't help but smile as he removes his helmet, his gaze sweeping over the growing crowd outside the club.

He looks at Jungkook, who's practically bouncing on his heels, and asks with a hint of reluctance, "Did we really have to come here?"

Jungkook's smile only widens as he faces Taehyung, eyes sparkling with mischief. "When someone turns an adult, what's the first thing they should do?"

Taehyung frowns, slightly puzzled. "What?"

Jungkook pulls out his ID with a proud grin, holding it up for Taehyung to see. "Have their ID checked in a club!"

Taehyung shakes his head, a chuckle escaping him. "That's so childish."

But Jungkook just laughs, grabbing Taehyung's arm and pulling him toward the entrance. "Come on, everyone's already waiting inside!"

As they approach the entrance, Taehyung can't help but ask, amusement lacing his voice, "Are you planning to get fully drunk tonight?"

Jungkook, showing his ID to the bouncer at the door, shakes his head. "No... just a little."

Taehyung watches him, a protective instinct kicking in. Jungkook must have been waiting for this moment after years of being told not to drink by Taehyung. So he asks, "Why not go all out?"

Jungkook turns around, walking backward as he faces Taehyung, a mischievous grin spreading across his lips. "Because I have other plans for tonight."

Taehyung raises an eyebrow, intrigued. "Other plans?"

Jungkook steps closer, his voice dropping to a whisper as he caresses Taehyung's cheek with a gentle hand. "I want to be sober tonight so I can remember every single moment of it."

 Taehyung's heart skips a beat, his thoughts swirling as Jungkook's words sink in. There's a seriousness in Jungkook's tone that wasn't there before, a promise of something more. Jungkook pulls back just enough to meet Taehyung's gaze, his eyes filled with a determination that makes Taehyung's pulse race.

"I plan to make tonight the most special night of my life," Jungkook whispers, his voice low and full of intent.

Taehyung's heart races as Jungkook turns around with a smirk, continuing to walk backward as if daring Taehyung to follow. There's a glint in Jungkook's eyes, a confidence that draws Taehyung in like a moth to a flame. He can't help but feel that if he gets too close, he might get burned, but the pull is irresistible.
