Chapter 45 - Heels?

Ignore the mistakes<3

A soft smile tugged at his lips as he observed his boyfriend gazing out the window, the city lights reflected in his eyes. The view of the Han River shimmering under the moonlight stretched before them, serene and inviting. Jungkook reached out, gently brushing his fingers over Taehyung's hand.

"How about a walk by the river?" Jungkook asked, his voice low and affectionate.

Taehyung turned toward him, smiling softly. "That sounds nice."

With that, they stepped out of the car, the cool breeze greeting them as they made their way toward the riverbank. Jungkook took Taehyung's hand, their fingers interlocking naturally as they began to walk along the quiet path. The night was peaceful, the sound of the water lapping gently against the shore creating a tranquil atmosphere.

"Feels good to be out like this," Taehyung murmured, glancing at Jungkook.

"Yeah, especially with you," Jungkook replied, his tone playful, but there was sincerity in his gaze. He squeezed Taehyung's hand a little tighter. "You look extra cute tonight, by the way."

Taehyung's cheeks flushed pink, and he tried to hide his smile by looking away. "You and your compliments..." he mumbled, though the corners of his mouth betrayed him.

Jungkook chuckled, enjoying the way Taehyung always reacted to his teasing. "What? I'm just speaking the truth," he said, bumping his shoulder lightly against Taehyung's. "You know you love it."

Taehyung rolled his eyes, but his blush deepened. "Shut up."

As they continued walking, their conversation drifted from one topic to another—upcoming schedules, places they wanted to visit, and even random musings about life. Jungkook's teasing comments were relentless, each one making Taehyung blush and laugh in equal measure.

Just when everything seemed perfect, a soft rumble of thunder echoed in the distance. Taehyung glanced up at the sky, his brows furrowing. "Is it...?"

Before he could finish, droplets of rain began to fall, slowly at first, then picking up speed as a sudden shower caught them off guard.

"Seriously? Again?" Jungkook laughed as he grabbed Taehyung's hand, pulling him toward the car. "Come on, before we get soaked!"

They broke into a sprint, the rain quickly turning into a steady downpour. Even though they weren't far from the car, they still managed to get a little wet by the time they reached it. Taehyung fumbled with the passenger door, both of them laughing breathlessly as they finally slid inside, safe from the rain.

Jungkook ran a hand through his damp hair, shaking his head with amusement. "Why is it always us getting caught in the rain?"

Taehyung chuckled, wiping the light droplets off his face. "Maybe the universe just likes messing with us."

"Well, at least we didn't get completely drenched this time," Jungkook pointed out with a grin as he climbed into the driver's seat.

Taehyung nodded, still laughing. "Yeah, I guess that's an improvement."

With a quick glance back at the rain-soaked windshield, Jungkook turned on the engine, the familiar purr filling the car once again. He shifted the gear into drive and pulled away from the riverbank, heading toward Euphoria Estate.

Taehyung, now comfortably leaning back in his seat, pulled out his phone and began scrolling through Twitter absentmindedly. His eyes widened suddenly as he spotted something unexpected. "Oh my God..."
