Aladdin (Vkook)

Epilogue

TP POV:

After revealing his name, Taehyung felt relief wash over him. It had been decades since he last uttered his real name. And this declaration made his freedom feel all the more real.

His boxy smile adorned his lips as he stared at the raven-haired boy with a bunny smile that he had come to adore.

"What a beautiful name. Taehyung" Jungkook tested the name on his lips. And he decided that he liked it. And Taehyung felt himself almost tear up at finally hearing his name be pronounced after such a long time. He loved it.

"Thank you Taehyung and Jungkook for saving our beloved kingdom. We are truly in your debt" the sultan humbly spoke and bowed slightly in gratitude. Jungkook and Taehyung doing the same. "It was our duty, your majesty!" The two said in unison.

"Still if there is anything we could do for you then let us know. It will be our honor" the sultan said making the princess and the other two smile as well. "And you, my daughter" the man turned to Jennie. The lady looking at him questioningly. "You have shown great courage today. And for that, I believe you are more than worthy to take my throne" the man genuinely spoke. Jennie gasping and smiling in honor. Everyone else feeling happy for her.

"And I bless your relationship. I would gladly like to know more about my future daughter-in-law" the old man chuckled. Jisoo and Jennie blushing madly as the rest cheered them on.

Jimin ran to Jungkook and Taehyung and hugged them both. They returned the sweet gesture in relief that the man was not hurt.

"What do we do now?" Jimin asked. "Well, Taehyung dreams of traveling around the Caravans with his own ship. And I plan to join him. What about you?" Jungkook asked his best mate. Jimin smiled brightly at them. "I go where you go, brother. As long as you still want my company that is" Jimin spoke without hesitation.

"You're more than welcome to come with us, Jiminie!" Taehyung chirped happily. Jungkook nodding along. " I love you already!" Jimin exclaimed and hugged Taehyung tightly. The former Genie giggling. "me too!" He chirped again.

Jungkook looking at them with a smile.

"Well if that is what you guys want to do then at least let me offer a ship and rations" the princess spoke out. The three looking at her astonished. "We couldn't possibly!" Taehyung tried to deny. "You guys deserve more than what I can offer! The least I can do is give the best ship that we have, and ample ration" the princess insisted. The sultan agreeing.

Taehyung couldn't refuse the gift.

"And that, kids, is how I and your papa along with uncle Chim first started our journey." Jeongguk finished as he stared at his beautiful children who looked at him with intrigue and fascination. No matter how many times he tells them his past, they seem to always be enchanted every time.

But he couldn't blame them. He himself felt enchanted at times. "Alright my babies! Time to eat! Uncle Jin made stew!" Jimin's voice spoke from the inside. "Yay!" The kids cheered and rushed inside, Jungkook chuckling at their antics.

"Better come in fast Kook or Jin's gonna kill ya" this time Hoseok's voice spoke from the deck entrance. The raven turned and gave him a smile and a subtle nod before turning back to look at the beautiful sea that sparkled from the sun. It was noon, the breeze was slow and the view was surreal. Jungkook felt so at peace.

The beautiful scenery reminding him of the beautiful past. He was now in his early thirties. Others not that far from his age. Some older some younger. Though they never count Taehyung's age. But they were all around the same.

It had been eight years since the princess had given them a huge ship to start their journey. At first, they were clueless. But as months went by they started visiting different islands. It was a tough journey. But they found a few people along the way that really clicked with them. They asked them to come aboard. Some did, others chose to stay back. Years passed and their relationships grew stronger. Hoseok, a poor farmer near the east side islands, became their fisherman. Yoongi, a grumpy soldier of the northern islands became their sailor. Seokjin, a small cook from the town of Skihila became their exclusive chef. And Jimin obviously being the best man on deck.

And as they spent months after months together, Taehyung and Jungkook decided to take their crush and form it into a proper relationship. And after two years, they tied the knot. And whilst taking a tour on a nearby island they stumbled upon three children. Two girls and one boy. Mila, Hena, and Roman. They were orphans needing love and care. And the two just fell in love with them during their stay. So they decided to take them in as their own. And now Taehyung is living his dream of a happy family and great friends in a ship, sailing the vast Caravan.

The raven felt the ship away slightly and heard the sound of footsteps. "There's that husband of yours. probably thinking about air or something. Maybe even fish, who knows?" he heard Yoongi say and grinned at the teasing tone of the elder. But what made him smile was the adorable giggle of his gorgeous husband.

"He heard footsteps coming near him and Yoongi's voice slowly disappearing. "What are you looking at dear?" He heard Taehyung say as he leaned his head against his shoulder.

Jungkook pecked the latter's hair. "Just finished storytime. I was looking at the ocean and remembering old times. It looks more beautiful every day." The raven answered.

"It does, doesn't it?" His husband agreed. The two stare at the peaceful sea with comfort and happiness. Stealing kisses in between the comfortable silent moments. Their children's giggles and Seokjin's weird laughter resonating in the background. Their deck mates laughing at his laugh. The serenade of it all felt like a dream.

Life just couldn't get any better.
