IX

It was almost 11PM when Jungkook and Taehyung got home. Taehyung was still shaking a little, but now he was wearing Jungkook's hoodie.

"How are you not even the least bit cold?" Taehyung asked, staring at Jungkook.

"I don't know."

"Maybe it's because you're just so hot." 

Jungkook stopped on his way to the bathroom and turned around, his face slowly turning red. "What?"

"You're blushing." Taehyung pointed at Jungkook's face, a smug smirk on his own.

"Well yeah, obviously."

"What a hottie."

The red on Jungkook's face deepened a few shades and Taehyung laughed slightly.

"Wow." He spoke, quickly jogging up to Jungkook and putting his hands on the boys burning hot face. "Your ears are all red too."

Taehyung pinched Jungkook's ears gently.

"I'm gonna run you a warm bath now." Jungkook spoke, quickly spinning around and making his escape.

He didn't get far before Taehyung wrapped his arms around Jungkook from behind.

"You're so cute." He laughed.

Jungkook just kept walking, not saying a word and ran the bath for Taehyung, the baby himself clinging onto him the whole time.

He turned off the water when the tub was full enough and placed his hands on top of Taehyung's arms.

"Okay little baby, it's bath time." He said with a playful smile on his lips.

Taehyung loosened his arms and Jungkook turned around, facing him.

"Do you need my help undressing or?"

Taehyung's eyes grew wide and his face started turning red.

"Now you're blushing." Jungkook laughed. "Go on then, I'll make some food."

He left the bathroom without another word, leaving Taehyung behind with his heart bounding out of his chest.

Jungkook woke up in the middle of the night, breathing heavily. He had just had a nightmare about Taehyung falling into the Han River's black water.

"Damn it." He breathed out, realizing that the glass on his night stand was empty.

He slowly got up, still a little shaken up from the dream he had. As quietly as he could, he made his way into the kitchen and took a fresh waterbottle from the fridge and gulped down most of it.

He leaned his back against the kitchen table and let out a long sigh.

"Hmh." Jungkook let out a small and weirdly sad laugh, thinking back at the horrible scene in his dream.

Before he could even realize it, he felt a tear run down his cheek. Soon he was quietly sobbing into his hands.

"Jungkook?" Taehyung's voice made him jump a little. "What's wrong?"

"I- I had a nightmare." He spoke with a low voice, embarrassed of his ridiculous crying.

"Oh."

Taehyung walked to him, grabbed the bottle from his hands and put it down onto the table before hugging him.

He held Jungkook's waist with his other hand and placed the other on to the back of Jungkook's head, drawing small circles on the back of his neck.

"It's okay. Wanna talk about it?"

"No, it's embarrassing." Jungkook breathed out, now a little calmer.

"Okay." Taehyung decided not to press it. "Let's go back to sleep."

Jungkook nodded, the feeling of loneliness taking over him as Taehyung let go of him.

"So, will you sleep next to me or in your own bed?" Taehyung smiled softly, taking Jungkook's hand.

"With you." 

Taehyung nodded, leading him into his room.

They laid down and Taehyung put the blanket over their bodies. He wrapped his arms around Jungkook and pulled him as close as possible.

"Sleep." He spoke, stroking Jungkook's hair. "I love you."

"I love you too." Jungkook whispered softly.
