"Hyung. I'm sorry for not visiting earlier."

Jungkook began his ramble. Taehyung was standing by his side, listening to all the stories the younger had to tell.

"I moved to Seoul. Which is further away from Daegu than Busan. I were accepted into Sopa thanks to Jimin and have earned some fame. No bullies. I'm glad to have had the chance to visit your hometown. It is as beautiful as you always described it. Taehyung showed me around."

He smiled to himself as he spoke, sitting down in front of the grave and playing with a few strands of grass.

"You won't believe it... I still don't, but we're dating. Taehyung and I. He's amazing, I really love him. We got a dog together. Yeontan. You'd love him." He went on to talk about his friends. "Jimin and Hoseok hyung miss you lots. Jiminie got a problem with drinking the first months you were gone. He's doing better now though. Hoseok is in charge of your Soundcloud. People love your music and the tracks he uploaded from your computer. Hobi is also really popular there. Did you know Taehyung attended your funeral and helped us? He did. He is really caring and wishes he also could have met you. I..."

Something hurt. A small ache was forming in his chest, causing his eyes to redden.

"I don't know where you are now hyung... I hope you're at peace, hopefully, your wish to be a rock has been fulfilled. I- I'm sorry if I was a burden to you. I know you wanted to move to Seoul but stayed for my sake. I'm thankful for everything you did— how you protected and took care of me."

The young male got on his knees, now letting the tears he held back run down his cheeks.

"Thank you so much. I wouldn't be where I am today without you. You let me meet Jimin and made sure he took care of me. So many doors were opened... I met amazing people. I wouldn't have without you. Thank you..."

Taehyung felt emotional by watching his boyfriend. He was bowing on his knees and crying his eyes out as he thanked his hyung. He looked so exposed and pained.

The wind blew across the graveyard, causing the pretty decorations to fall over. He swore on that he heard a voice in the wind. 'You better invite me to the wedding.' It was odd but he accepted it.

He bent down beside Jungkook, deciding to do a full bow for Yoongi before leaving.

Taehyung placed his hand on Jungkook's shoulder then helped him up from the ground, pulling him into a hug. "I'm sure he's happy for you and really proud."

Jungkook wiped his face with his shirt sleeve as he nodded. "Thank you..."
