Are You Sure?

Episode 6

"Are you sure you won't be cold walking?" Jungkook asked, zipping his coat to go get snacks at the convenience store.

"We really did name this show correctly didn't we?" Jimin giggled, zipping his own coat.

Jimin leaned over and gave Jungkook a quick kiss before glancing to make sure they were definitely out of the cameras' views.  As they were leaving, Jungkook couldn't stop himself from acting goofy to make his husband smile.  In doing so, however, he slipped and fell on his bottom on the slick sidewalk.

The crew laughed, but among the loudest, he heard Jimin's sweet laughter and smiled wide, not even sorry that he'd fallen, even if he was certain he would feel it tomorrow.

Jimin teased him with flirty arguments about what snacks to get, Jungkook getting too much to possibly eat, and Jimin dancing in the middle of the convenience store just to make Jungkook smile.

Later on, they had their dinner they'd planned on at the hotel.  They talked all night about how close they were to joining the military together.  How grateful they were to be able to not be apart.  How much they missed the others, and how they thought the members who had already joined were doing in the military right now.

Jimin woke up the next morning to hot breath blowing his now-blonde hair across his face, tickling his skin.  It was just barely dawn, but he knew he'd have to get into his own bed before the sun had fully risen.  The cameras trained on him constantly reminded him that they weren't completely free to be themselves, even on their honeymoon.  He considered turning it off and waking Jungkook up his favorite way, but opted to just get out of bed and into the shower instead. 

When Jungkook had finally woken up, gotten dressed, and teased Jimin enough by choosing his sunglasses for the day, they made their way to a ramen restaurant for breakfast.  Jimin's mouth practically watered.  He'd been waiting so long for Japanese miso ramen and he was finally getting to enjoy it authentically again.  He remembered the first time he'd had it when they came to Tokyo together when Jungkook had surprised him with not only a trip, but a sweet video love letter for his birthday.  He remembered how Jungkook had taken him to that ring store in the Tokyo shopping district and had promised that one day it would be a real ring and he would make him his husband.

As he sipped his coffee on the way to the train station, he smiled, whispering to Jungkook how happy he was that Jungkook had made good on that promise and exchanged a promise ring for a wedding ring.

They laughed and joked throughout the train ride, listening to music and talking.  Jimin felt his heart swell with joy as he looked out over the frigid sea, waves crashing into the rocks.  Jungkook must have felt the same because he felt the weight of his husband's head leaning on his shoulder.  He wasn't sure how long he'd rested his head there, but it took every ounce of self control he had to not lean in and kiss him.

Finally arriving at the brewery, Jungkook could barely contain his excitement.  They walked through the museum with their hands in their pockets to avoid the easy instinct to interlock their fingers.  Jungkook bought some whiskey after they taste tested some.  He made for certain that he got a bottle of the one Jimin had said he liked.

On the way to the restaurant Jimin had picked for them for lunch, he was overcome by the joy that snow always brought him.  He ran back and forth in the icy streets, threw snowballs at his husband, and played to his heart's content.  Once they couldn't feel their fingers, they made their way into the warmth of the restaurant.

They felt themselves shift into a more serious mood once they began eating and discussed plans for 2025, what it had been like for them in 2013, and they laughed over all the fights they all used to have.  Sharing memories with the covering of snow while in Japan and the warmth of the food and whiskey in their bellies made them both feel extra affectionate.

After leaving the restaurant to go back to their hotel, Jimin risked lacing his fingers through Jungkook's and giving him a quick peck on the lips before whispering, "I'm so glad I've always had you.  I hope I always will."

Humming to himself, Jungkook smiled, returning a kiss onto his forehead.  "You will always have me, mochi.  I love you."

"I love you too, Kookie," Jimin whispered, leaning his head against Jungkook's shoulder and letting sleep overtake him.

A/N: I LOVED the Sapporo episodes SO MUCH so I'm trying to make them JUST right.  If they're taking a little longer, just know that's why.  Also, while I'm trying to keep this as minimal on the fictional elements as possible, I couldn't resist adding a sweet little Jikook what if at the end there.

See you in the next episode, Lovely Army's!
