The movie ended quite soon and Jungkook turns to his side to face a sleeping Taehyung. A small smile plays on his lips, similar to that of Taehyung's. The older seems peaceful with his eyes closed, giving a soft look to his face. Jungkook places his palm on Taehyung's cheek, softly caressing it, admiring how soft the skin feels on his hand. 

Taehyung's eyes shoot open at the touch. He smiles softly and lifts his head only to rest it on his palm, supported by his elbow. "Is my face that beautiful?" He softly questions the younger.

Yes, Jungkook wanted to answer. "More like adorable in a baby bear kind of way," he corrects Taehyung with a giggle.

Taehyung nods and stands up. He stretches his arm out for Jungkook to take it. The Younger gladly takes it and stands up as well. Being cramped in a position for almost an hour and a half has left Jungkook's legs go numb. As they begin to give out within a second of him standing, Taehyung grabs hold of the younger's waist with both his large hands to support him, almost encircling his arms around him.

With such a close proximity, Jungkook could feel Taehyung's warm breath fall on his face. All either of them had to do was just lean in a little more and they'd be kissing.

"Um, you might wanna leave because we need to clean this mess up," Someone says, startling the two boys.

Taehyung retreats his arms away from Jungkook and looks down at the woman. She might be in her early or mid twenties but you can't be so sure. Taehyung mumbles a quick "Sorry," and slowly drags Jungkook out of the yard, his hand placed on the younger's lower back for support.

As they exit, one of the workers hand them a jute bag full of goodies— mostly, chocolates of various sorts. They bow their heads as a sign of respect and gratitude and quickly make their way towards Taehyung's car.

Jungkook quickly enters the car and Taehyung follows suit. But before he could close the passenger door, he hears a tiny whimper from somewhere at the side of the road. Taehyung steps out, closing the passenger door right after, leaving the brown-haired boy confused.

The tiny whimpers continue to be heard as the silver-head moves towards the source of sound. As he moves closer, a tiny kitten comes into his line of vision. He hears an 'aww'; about as small as the kitten's whimpers. He turns back to see Jungkook with his right palm against his chest, completely attracted to the kitten.

The younger quickly runs towards the tiny animal to pet it. As he gets on his knees to pat its head, the kitten ducks away from him and slowly backs away. To that, Jungkook frowns. He looks back at Taehyung, still frowning. "This kitten is so rude, Tae!" He whines in the form of a complaint.

Taehyung chuckles lightly at Jungkook's childish antics as the kitten continues to purr. "Dude, she is probably a little afraid of sudden physical contact," he explains, trying to reason with the younger who is now glaring at the kitten, which only results in the kitten further backing away from the caramel-haired boy.

Taehyung chuckles louder than earlier. He pulls Jungkook away from the kitten and kneels down in front of the feline creature. He extends his arm to tuck his fingers under the kitten's chin. It leans in to the touch as Jungkook huffs in annoyance. Taehyung looks back questioningly, still petting the kitten.

"Stupid animal! You're more intimidating than I am. But no, she won't come to me!" He complains with a frown.

Taehyung picks up the kitten and places her on his lap and resumes petting her. He looks up at the frowning younger and smirks. "What can I say? I can't help but attract them ladies," he states, still smirking.

Jungkook rolls his eyes and glares at the kitten. The tiny creature cowers against Taehyung. The older lays a protective arm around the kitten and looks up at Jungkook. "Where's that bag?" He asks, referring to the bag of goodies given earlier.
