Forty-nine

uh for context jaehyun is now on winter break so 😌

The sound of the zipping of Jaehyun sweater followed his action of placing luggage on the floor. Taeyong sat on the bed, his hands placed on either side of his lap as his feet kicked against the footboard. He looked over at the alarm clocked plastered with the time of 3:12 a.m. "What time does the plane leave?"

Jaehyun turned around towards the mirror and messily adjusted his hair with his fingertips,"In four hours; at around 7:30. It'll take about an hour to get to the airport and another hour for check-in and security."

Taeyong moved off the bed and approached behind Jaehyun, then hung his arms around the boy's shoulders, leaning his head against Jaehyun's arm which was padded with the material of his sweater. He looked at himself in mirror before then looking dumbly at Jaehyun's reflection in a realization,"Wait, I never asked where we're going."

Jaehyun smirked, his hand trailing behind Taeyong's head,"You'll see."

The raven-haired boy looked at the latter in a confused manner, simply being met with Jaehyun's cheeky smile.

"Hm, we should probably leave now? Just so we won't be in a rush at the airport."

"Oh, okay."

A span of over fourteen hours quickly passed before everything that was done resulted in Taeyong softly awaking due to the vibration of the plane cabin as the plane landed. He squeezed his eyelids tightly before looking out the colorless window into the visual of the airport illuminated with brighg lights. He rubbed his own arms as the temperature of the cabin was slightly frigid, then gazed over to Jaehyun, softly placing his hand on his sleeping counterpart's.

The brunette reacted to the touch, waking up, turning over and espying his boyfriend,"We're here?"

"Yeah."

The lights in the cabin turned on, followed by the sound of the pilot's voice emitted from the speakers. Jaehyun unbuckled his seatbelt and stood up from his seat. He opened the latch of the overhead bin and pulled out two identical suitcases.

Taeyong removed his own buckle, both of his hands holding onto opposite headrests as the row of passengers in isle crowded.

They eventually left both the plane and the airport altogether, then took an Uber to the hotel which they were staying at.

In a half awake state, Taeyong took notice of the exterior of the hotel and the stores and locations around it, almost sure he'd been here before. However, he didn't bother to question Jaehyun until their room number and room itself was the same one that he had stayed in with Jaehyun, Johnny, Ten, Donghyuck and Mark in the past years.

He turned over to Jaehyun who was setting their luggage against the wall,"Why are we here?"

He stood straight up and ran his fingers through his hair,"What do you mean?"

"Just um- Isn't this the same exact room we stayed in almost five years ago during summer break?"

The brunette shrugged his shoulders, diverting his eyes as his ears tinted red,"I didn't notice. I just took whatever they had available."

"Oh," Taeyong kicked his shoes off, the pulled his sweater off after.

"It's still early. Do you want to go get something to eat?"

Taeyong gazed out the window, his eyes catching the golden light of the soon to began sunset,"Okay."

~~~~

"Um, Jaehyun?" Taeyong espied the red and white walls and vintage decoration of the restaurant.

The brunette loosened his grip around Taeyong's hand yet still kept it held as he turned his head to make eye contact,"Yeah?"

"This is the restaurant from 5 years ago- What are we doing here?"

Jaehyun looked forward as he continued to walk into the building,"Oh, it is? Let's go sit down."

Taeyong was pulled along by Jaehyun's soft tug until they both sat down at a red cushioned booth. Jaehyun sat across from Taeyong, his hands placed underneath his chin as he lost himself in Taeyong's eyes. He touched the skin of the latter's cheek with his fingertips, then closing the gap between their lips for a split second.

Taeyong slightly pushed back with with his bottom lip, then pulling back, a blush on his face present as his eyes drifted to the side to make sure no one saw.

Taeyong softly shivered, the cold breeze brushing against his skin as the towel wrapped around his shoulder was removed. He set the towel to the side of the hotel jacuzzi, then submerging his feet into the steaming, boiling water and sitting on the ledge.

Jaehyun waded through the water, reaching the opposite end of the "circular" pool. He grabbed both of Taeyong's hands, intertwining their fingers while he rested his chest against Taeyong's lap.

The raven-haired boy ran his fingers through Jaehyun's chocolate-colored locks,"What was with all the places today?"

Jaehyun softened his expression at the relaxation of Taeyong's touch,"Hmm?"

Taeyong unknowingly pouted,"You know what I mean."

Jaehyun pulled Taeyong's body into the bubbling water, sitting back against the wall and tightening his grip around his boyfriend's waist,"It's break and I wanted to go back to the places where I thought we had our most memorable moments. Like how the cafe was were we had our technical first date and kiss."

Taeyong leaned against Jaehyun's chest, his sense immersed in the steady beating of his heart. He moved his left hand up on Jaehyun's shoulder, only slightly and hesitantly pressing a kiss on the brunette's neck.

"So," he paused for a few seconds,"how long did it take to get the exact room we stayed in?"

"Well, first I tried to see if I could remember it or had any emails from the hotel that weren't deleted. I asked everyone else we went with and Johnny and Ten filmed some weird video near the door so I was able to find it. It wasn't too hard requesting a specific room though."

Taeyong simply smiled to himself, his hand interlocked with Jaehyun's, simply enjoying the feeling of happiness against him.
