Jungkook expected his heart rate to be skyrocketing. He expected his palms to be sweaty, and breathing to be uneven. But no such things happened.

Instead, as he walked into Kim's Café on June 3rd, he was calm. His heart was steady, and his breathing too. He was calm. Which, was slightly confusing, but the more he thought about it, the more he realized something.

Taehyung always made him feel calm. The only time he had ever felt panicked or upset around Taehyung was this year. So why would that change now?

Over the course of the weeks of getting presents from Taehyung, Jungkook realized all of the good times he had with Taehyung. All of the sweet smiles, and warm nights they shared.

As Jungkook thought it all over, the more he realized how much he missed Taehyung. That he did still love the older. He just had so much resentment towards him that he used as a wall to protect himself.

Jungkook sat in the booth in the corner of the café and took a deep breath as a weak attempt to prepare himself for whatever was to come.

But, oh how that didn't do anything for him. Because when a certain dark haired, tan, puppy eyed male walked through the café doors, he felt himself melt. His thoughts that he had so skillfully prepared beforehand were whipped from his mind, and his heart stilled.

Right now, he was free from the loathing he held to Taehyung, thus leaving him vulnerable to see him like two years ago. Like the beautiful man he fell for.

Was it possible for someone to fall for a person again? Jungkook didn't know. But all he knew was that seeing Taehyung now felt like time had stopped. The world frozen so Jungkook could focus solely on the gorgeous man walking to him with a nervous smile.

Taehyung sat across from Jungkook. Their eyes met, and instead of sorrow or hatred being held in their irises, kindness and forgiveness laced the brown in their eyes. A million words being spoken in seconds of gazing at each other. It was time to let go of the past and start new. They both knew that.

"You came." Was the first thing Taehyung said. His words were nervous—hesitant. Jungkook understood why. Because, well, the last time they spoke, Jungkook was yelling in Taehyung's face.

"I did." Jungkook said, folding his hands on his lap. "Were you planning on waiting for me even if I didn't come?" He quirked his eyebrow.

The side of Taehyung's lips ticked slightly up, creating a small smile on them. "You know, I didn't really think of that. But, I guess that was my subconscious plan, yes."

Jungkook let out a short, breathy chuckle. "What a gentlemen. Are you glad I came?"

Taehyung hummed, "I am. But now that you're here I've forgotten what I was going to say." They both let out a small laugh.

"Actually same. But that's alright...We can just improvise." Jungkook smiled softly. Taehyung nodded, "Indeed."

Jungkook chose to start. "So, Mr. Kim. This is your café correct?"

Taehyung nodded once again, "That it is. Do you like it? It took almost a year to decorate to my liking." He looked around slight, as did Jungkook.
