My Daughter's Teacher | Taekook

Reunion

The closer the day of his cousins' wedding came, the more Taehyung felt like completely backing out of the entire thing. He knew it was only going to go bad, nothing good ever happened when his parents and he were in the same room together. Now with a possessive husband by his side, he knows for a fact the inevitable argument was going to be worse than it ever had been before. The only thing that was keeping him agreeing to the whole ordeal was the prospect of finally being able to show them everything he has, the amazing family he's managed to grow with Jungkook. At one point he even considers taking Yeontan with them to complete the 'perfect family' image, but in the end, he didn't want to stress the little dog out so they talked Jin and Namjoon into dog sitting him for the weekend they were away.

The night before they set off to Daegu was like a bad omen, or maybe Taehyung was just being paranoid. Minjun took longer than usual to settle down after his night feed, screaming his little lungs out if Jungkook even moved to place him down into his crib. Asami managed to cut her finger and added to the noise within the house with her own cries, only crying louder when Taehyung discovered they had no Ariel bandaids left and only had ones with other princesses on. It had taken him an entire half an hour to get her to finally agree to a Snow White one instead, with the added promise of an entire slice of cake once they were at the wedding reception.

When they finally got into bed, they were both well and truly exhausted. "Maybe tonight was a sign of things to come, maybe the universe is telling us to not go to the wedding," Taehyung voices out when he snuggles up to Jungkook's side.

"Or maybe shit just happens." Jungkook sleepily replies, not seeming even a fraction of how bothered the elder was.

"I'm being serious, Kookie."

"So am I," Jungkook quickly says back, opening one eye only to see Taehyung pouting with the most miserable look on his face. "Baby, stop worrying. If you really don't want to go then we won't, okay? We can just take a weekend trip to Daegu without going to the wedding."

"But that'll make me seem like a coward. They probably already know that I've said I'm going, my cousins probably told them everything. If we don't show up then they'll think I was lying about having a family, probably think I made you all up in a panic and then backed out at the last second so I didn't have to be embarrassed." Taehyung sighs loudly.

"But you didn't. You know that and I know that, who gives a fuck what they think?"

"Unfortunately there's a part of me that still does."

Jungkook frowns at the words before wrapping his arms tighter around Taehyung, bringing him closer to his own body. "How about this, we show up and the second things get bad we'll bolt out of there. Sound good?"

"You won't leave me, right? You'll stick with me for the entire thing?"

"Of course, baby. I'd never leave you."

Taehyung smiles when Jungkook softly kisses the top of his head, feeling the tension leave his body at least for the night. He can only hope that this wasn't the calm before the storm.

The drive to Daegu the next morning went surprisingly smoothly, Minjun sleeping through basically the whole journey whilst Asami sang along to songs and drew in her sketch pad. Taehyung was thankful for the peace, knowing that the horror from the night before had not carried on into the morning. When they arrived at their hotel they didn't have long to get ready before they had to head to the wedding, both of the men trying to organise everything quickly so they didn't show themselves up by being late to the actual ceremony.

"I thought daddy's other family were bad people," Asami says in confusion as Jungkook fiddles around with the ribbon in her hair.

"They are, pancake."
