Jungkook’s father, Mr. Jeon, stood tall and imposing in a luxury polo shirt and tailored pants, his outfit completed by an expensive branded belt and polished leather shoes. His sunglasses reflected the sunlight, adding to his air of authority as he casually held a sleek suitcase by his side. Their butler, ever efficient, stood at attention just behind him, quietly observing. 

Nearby, Jungkook, Jin, and Jimin were already in high spirits, laughing and clicking pictures together. Jin was cracking jokes while Jimin playfully teased Jungkook about his outfit. Their camaraderie filled the atmosphere with lighthearted energy, masking any tension that might have otherwise lingered. 

Just then, the rest of the group arrived

Just then, the rest of the group arrived. Taehyung, Hoseok, Namjoon, Yoongi, and Yoonji hurried up, their expressions a mix of excitement and awe as they took in the grandeur of the cruise ship. Taehyung immediately broke away from the group and headed straight for Jungkook. Without hesitation, he pulled Jungkook into a hug, pressing a quick kiss to his cheek. 

Jungkook’s heart fluttered at the gesture, but he quickly masked his giddiness, stealing a glance at his father. Thankfully, Mr. Jeon was preoccupied, checking his watch and giving last-minute instructions to the butler. 

Meanwhile, Yoongi mirrored Taehyung’s boldness, greeting Jimin with a similar hug, drawing playful chuckles from Jin and Jimin. 

Jungkook quickly introduced his father to the group. “Dad, these are my friends.” 

Mr. Jeon turned to them with a polite yet distant smile. “Welcome. I trust you’ll enjoy yourselves. The cruise is yours to explore.” His tone was courteous but lacked any real warmth, a fact Taehyung noticed immediately. 

Taehyung’s fists clenched at his sides as old memories of what Jungkook had endured under this man resurfaced. However, he kept his face neutral, determined not to ruin the mood for Jungkook. 

As the group began moving toward the ship, Jungkook reached out and intertwined his fingers with Taehyung’s. The small, intimate gesture caught Taehyung off guard, sending a light blush to his cheeks. 

“What’s this? Blushing already?” Jungkook teased in a low voice, leaning closer. 

“Stop it,” Taehyung muttered, his gaze darting nervously toward the others, though a faint smile tugged at his lips. 

“Why? It’s cute,” Jungkook whispered, his smirk widening as he tightened his hold. 

Taehyung rolled his eyes but couldn’t help feeling a spark of happiness, even as he fought to maintain his composure. The group followed Mr. Jeon and the butler aboard, their laughter echoing in the warm air.
