🥀 Love is pain 🥀 ' Junoon ❣️ ' ( ✓ )

6.

As the night progressed, the wedding celebrations only seemed to grow more festive, with the crowd dancing and singing to their heart’s content. Jungkook and Taehyung, always the life of the party, had taken over the dance floor, twirling and laughing in each other’s arms. They were lost in their own little world, and their happiness was infectious. Anyone who saw them could feel the love radiating between them.

Jimin, meanwhile, found himself unable to escape Yoongi's relentless teasing. After a particularly dizzying spin on the dance floor, Jimin pulled away, panting slightly. "You’re unbelievable," Jimin muttered, trying to catch his breath, his hair slightly disheveled from the dancing. "How are you still standing?"

Yoongi, looking infuriatingly relaxed despite the energy in the room, shrugged nonchalantly. "Just trying to keep up with you, Jimin-ssi," he replied, flashing a grin that made Jimin’s irritation flare up even more.

Jimin rolled his eyes dramatically. "You are the most annoying person I’ve ever met."

Yoongi chuckled, his eyes twinkling with mischief. "Oh, I know. But I’m growing on you, aren’t I?"

Jimin shot him a glare, crossing his arms defensively. "In your dreams."

Unfazed, Yoongi stepped closer, his smirk deepening as he lowered his voice. "Are you sure about that?" His voice had that teasing edge again, the one that made Jimin’s stomach flip in ways he didn’t want to admit.

Jimin’s face flushed, and he turned on his heel, walking away before Yoongi could get another word in. "You’re insufferable!" Jimin called over his shoulder, half-serious, half-flustered.

"Admit it—you’re having fun!" Yoongi shouted after him, clearly enjoying how easily he could get under Jimin’s skin.

Jimin didn’t respond, too focused on putting some distance between himself and the man who somehow managed to push all his buttons without even trying. He found refuge near the drinks table once more, muttering under his breath about how ridiculous Yoongi was.

Across the courtyard, Taehyung and Jungkook were still swaying to the slow music, completely wrapped up in each other. Taehyung had his arms draped around Jungkook’s shoulders, while Jungkook held him close by the waist. They moved in sync, as if the rest of the world had faded away and all that remained was the rhythm of their hearts beating together.

Taehyung tilted his head slightly, his soft, deep voice carrying only between them. "Do you remember when we used to dream about this?"

Jungkook smiled, his eyes filled with warmth. "Of course I do. I remember thinking it was too good to be true—that someone like you couldn’t be real."

Taehyung chuckled, his fingers gently brushing through Jungkook’s hair. "And look at us now. I’m right here, and I’m not going anywhere."

Jungkook’s smile softened, his heart swelling with love as he leaned in to press a tender kiss to Taehyung’s forehead. "I love you so much, Tae."

Taehyung’s eyes sparkled under the soft glow of the fairy lights, his smile radiant. "I love you more, Kook."

As they held each other, the music shifted to a more upbeat tune, and their slow swaying transformed into playful dancing. Jungkook spun Taehyung around with a grin, his laughter echoing as Taehyung twirled back into his arms.

"Do you think we’ll ever stop being this cheesy?" Taehyung asked, his voice light with amusement.

Jungkook laughed, shaking his head. "Not a chance."

Meanwhile, Jimin, despite his best efforts to avoid Yoongi, soon found himself cornered again as Yoongi appeared by his side, casually leaning against the table like he hadn’t just been chasing Jimin around all night.

"Why are you running away from me, Jimin-ssi? I thought we were having fun," Yoongi teased, his tone playful but with a hint of something more.

Jimin sighed dramatically, throwing his hands in the air. "Why do you keep following me? Can’t you bother someone else for a change?"

Yoongi grinned, clearly enjoying Jimin’s exasperation. "But you’re the most interesting person here. Why would I waste time on anyone else?"

Jimin scoffed, turning to face him fully, his annoyance evident. "If by 'interesting,' you mean ‘annoyed to death,’ then sure."

Yoongi stepped closer, his voice dropping to that infuriatingly low tone again. "Maybe. But you can’t deny you’re having a good time."

Jimin’s face flushed once more, and he took a step back, glaring up at Yoongi. "I am not having a good time. You’re being obnoxious."

Yoongi chuckled softly, clearly amused by how flustered Jimin was getting. "Obnoxious, huh? You know, most people just tell me when they’re enjoying my company."

Jimin rolled his eyes, clearly done with Yoongi’s endless flirting. "Enjoying your company is the last thing I’m doing."

Yoongi smirked, his gaze never leaving Jimin’s. "Is that why you haven’t walked away yet?"

Jimin opened his mouth to respond but found himself at a loss for words. Instead, he let out a frustrated huff and turned to walk away—again. But just as he took his first step, Yoongi grabbed his wrist gently, pulling him back.

"Wait," Yoongi said, his tone softer now, devoid of the teasing edge. "I’m just messing with you, Jimin. I don’t want to actually annoy you."

Jimin looked up at him, surprised by the sudden sincerity in his voice. For a moment, he was caught off guard, unsure how to respond. But Yoongi’s grip on his wrist was warm, grounding him in the midst of his confusion.

"I…" Jimin started, but the words got stuck in his throat. He wasn’t sure what to say.

Yoongi let go of his wrist, offering a small, almost sheepish smile. "Okay, I’ll stop teasing. For now."

Jimin blinked, still processing the sudden shift in Yoongi’s behavior. "Good. You should."

Yoongi chuckled softly, his usual smirk returning, though it was a bit more subdued this time. "Alright, alright. But you’ll miss it when I stop."

Jimin rolled his eyes, though the annoyance in his voice had softened. "Not likely."

As they stood there, an unexpected silence settled between them, one that wasn’t uncomfortable but rather filled with an odd sense of understanding. Yoongi’s teasing had always been a barrier, a playful defense, but now that it had momentarily dropped, Jimin found himself seeing him differently.

Across the courtyard, Taehyung and Jungkook had finally taken a break from dancing and were sitting on a bench, sharing soft whispers and quiet laughter. Taehyung leaned his head on Jungkook’s shoulder, his eyes half-closed as he reveled in the warmth of Jungkook’s presence.

"You’re happy, right?" Jungkook asked softly, his voice full of love and a hint of vulnerability.

Taehyung turned to look at him, his expression softening even further. "I’ve never been happier, Kook."

Jungkook’s heart swelled at the sound of Taehyung’s words. He pressed a soft kiss to Taehyung’s temple, holding him close as they sat together under the stars, the world around them fading into the background.

And as the night wore on, with laughter, teasing, and heartfelt moments shared between friends and lovers, it became clear that this was a night none of them would forget—one filled with love, joy, and the promise of many beautiful tomorrows.
