Chapter 32 : The birthday bash

As Taehyung stepped into the bathroom, he realized he had forgotten his towel. Calling out to Jungkook, who was busy applying moisturizer on his legs and arms, he asked for a little help.

Jungkook complied, grabbing the towel and heading to the bathroom door. But as soon as he opened it, Taehyung's hand shot out, pulling him inside. Jungkook gasped, his breath hitching as he found himself inches away from Taehyung, who had wrapped a towel around his waist, water droplets glistening on his skin.

"Taehyungieee Hyung," Jungkook stammered, "wh-" but his words were silenced as Taehyung leaned in, capturing Jungkook's soft lips in a passionate kiss.

Breaking away just a little, Taehyung smirked, his voice a husky whisper. "You really know how to surprise me, my sweet. Planning everything for me so perfectly," he murmured, nuzzling Jungkook's neck. "You're such a wonderful spouse. But tell me, Bun-what's my gift?"

Jungkook, cheeks flushed, stuttered, "W-what do you want, hubby?"

Taehyung's smile deepened, teasingly tracing his fingers along Jungkook's arm. "Why don't you give yourself as a gift to me?"

Realizing what Taehyung meant, Jungkook blushed deeply, hiding his face against Taehyung's shoulder, his voice barely a whisper. "I'm already yours...... Aren't I?"

Taehyung chuckled, pulling Jungkook closer, and whispered teasingly, "Hmm, you know, Bun, I heard you asked Jimin-hyung how it feels to have a baby inside. What do you think about that, hmm?"

Jungkook's face turned bright red, his eyes widening in surprise. "Hyungie, stop it!" he mumbled, trying to hide his embarrassment, but Taehyung just laughed, clearly enjoying his reaction.

"Oh? Why stop, Bun?" Taehyung murmured with a mischievous smirk. "Maybe I should make you feel how it would be, huh? What do you say?"

Jungkook, completely flustered now, covered his face with his hands, hiding his bashful smile. "Tae, you're impossible," he muttered, heart racing as Taehyung laughed softly, wrapping him in a warm embrace.

Taehyung smirked, leaning in closer to Jungkook. "Tell me did you ask Jimin-hyung what it feels like?" he teased, his voice low and playful.

Jungkook's cheeks flushed immediately, and he looked away, flustered. "Hyungie, stop teasing me," he murmured, barely able to meet Taehyung's gaze.

But Taehyung only laughed, pulling Jungkook into his arms. "Why should I stop, hmm? You're too cute when you're all shy like this," he whispered, gently pressing a kiss to Jungkook's forehead.

Taehyung's arms wrapped around Jungkook tighter, his fingers tracing gentle circles along Jungkook's back as he held him close. Jungkook relaxed into the warmth of his embrace, feeling his heartbeat quicken as Taehyung leaned down, his breath warm against Jungkook's ear.

"Why don't you ever let me spoil you, hmm?" Taehyung whispered, his voice soft and affectionate. "You always think of me, but today... just let me take care of you."

Jungkook looked up at him, eyes wide and glimmering. "You already do, hyung. Every day."

Taehyung smiled, cupping Jungkook's face gently as he leaned in to kiss him again. This time, it was a slow, lingering kiss that made Jungkook's heart flutter. Taehyung's hand drifted up to Jungkook's hair, his fingers threading through the soft strands as he pulled him closer.

Jungkook's shyness melted away as he leaned into the kiss, letting himself get lost in Taehyung's warmth. Every touch, every whispered word from Taehyung made him feel cherished, like he was the most precious person in the world.

The backyard was a soft glow of warm lights woven through the trees, creating a cozy, dreamlike atmosphere that took Taehyung's breath away. He gazed around, his eyes landing on each familiar face his parents, his in-laws, his friends all smiling, all here for him. It felt surreal. Jungkook had outdone himself; Taehyung could feel the love in every detail of the night, and he knew he would cherish this moment forever.
