UNCUT THORNS✔️

Damn I would.

"I don't know, can you cancel that please." Jeongguk stood at the gates of the airport, clad in a black suit and get frustrated on the phone.

"Just cancel my week Namjoon please, I wouldn't do it unless it was absolutely necessary." He signed with a small smile.

"Thank you. Yes I shall try to work from home. Bye and thank you." He hung up and looked at the gate, feeling even more nervous now.

Their plane had landed ages ago, but finding baggage took quite a while so he understood in that sense.

He couldn't believe they were in the same place as him. That made everything around him look different for some reason.

He then spotted a man and woman walk through the gates with a trolley with small suitcases along with a duty free bag.

The man had a neck pillow and a black mask on, a black long sleeved shirt and black slacks adorned his small figure and he wore a shining pair of black boots. Jimin looked much better than Jeongguk last saw him. He looked older and healthier and stepped forward with more insistence, like he knew he deserved to be here.

Miyeon was completely different and Jungkook absolutely loved it. She wore large black combat boats with black leggings, an enormous white sweater with black splashed across it. Her mask was down and she was glowing in Jeongguk's eyes as her adorable fringe fluttered about her face.

He walked forward quickly, not caring about the crowd, mumbling heard as he accidentally knocked into them. The two siblings were looking a little lost until Jimin spotted him.

He raised up a hand and gave that warm eye smile and began waving happily. "Jeongguk!" Miyeon snapped her head towards her brother. Jimin pointed and Miyeon followed his finger.

She dropped the large backpack she carried and ran towards Jeongguk, her black hair flying about her face. Jeongguk then finally felt that warmth her body gave as she embraced him tightly, gripping her as if she would vanish if his hold should loosen.

"You're here." She laughed slightly and looked up at him. "I never left." He grinned. "You still want me?" She blinked up innocently. "I spent a year searching for you. Fuck anyone who comes in between you and I again." He kissed her hands lovingly and she giggled.

"Well aren't you guys romantic. Don't worry lovebirds your cameraman Jimin caught the happy reunion." Jimin bowed deeply.

"Come here." Jeongguk pulled him into the hug and embraced them both.

He hadn't felt this happy in a year.

"So where are the lovely parents?" Jimin put down his bags after him and Miyeon had settled in one of the guest bedrooms. Miyeon was in the kitchen trying to scavenge for a packet of cookies.

"Gone, and it shall stay that way. I took over the business so it's just me in this house." Jeongguk helped Jimin put clothes in the now filling wardrobe.

"Oh you're quite the range in Korea and Japan. How is it?" Jimin picked up Miyeon's bras and placed them in a box. Jeongguk gulped quietly.

"I actually enjoy it. Very stressful but at least it's my company so it's run in the manner I choose. It actually made it better." He shrugged.

"Miyeon and I would watch your fashion shows. Your clothes are nice, quite dark but it's definitely you." Jimin smiled. "You did?" Jeongguk smiled shyly.

"Of course! Miyeon was always excited when you would walk up after each show and thank everyone. However she enjoys watching you model them yourself. That bit was her favourite. Too be honest I just wanted a girlfriend and the models are stunning." Jeongguk shoved him playfully.

"Help a friend out!" Jimin laughed loudly and Jeongguk joined him. They then heard laughter down the hall outside.

"Is Yeonie with someone?" Jimin asked, eyebrows furrowed. "No one but the maids and I live here but they are not here today." Jeongguk raised an eyebrow and they both went for the door.

Miyeon was happily conversing with a tall man Jimin had never seen before and was smiling down at her gently. He was tall, his eyes beautiful and slender and he had deep dimples set on his tanned skin. He wore a leather jacket and a white turtleneck with wide white pants and brown shoes. He was a stunning man and Jimin had no shame admitting it.

"Who is that?" Jimin asked Jeongguk. "That, Jimin, is Kim Namjoon. He is the co-CEO of Embers Society and one of my lead models in both my men and unisex collections. Highly intelligent with a philosophical perspective of the world and probably one of the most annoying at the moment is his charming mannerisms." Jeongguk frowned slightly as Miyeon gave the man a chocolate chip cookie.

"If I were gay, damn I would." Jeongguk raised a skeptical eyebrow at Jimin. "Forget society because that is a fine ass man right there." Jimin shrugged.

"Jeongguk." Namjoon then smiled at them as he noticed the two and began walking towards then in gentle strides.

"Namjoon. Always good to see you but may I ask the nature of your visit?" Jeongguk internally screamed as Namjoon placed a hand on Yeon's shoulder.

"2021 Fashion week got more hectic with planning. They need 28 more outfits and I needed you to sign and go through these designs." Namjoon pulled out an envelope and handed it over.

"And then I met your friend here. So this is your reason of absence." He then looked at Jimin. "You're definitely her brother. Have you ever thought of modeling... you could be good you know." Namjoon shook his hand and smiled.

"If you're there, where do I sign?" Jimin smiled.

"I like you. Seriously though, try auditioning. You live with the fashion king himself." He then turned to Jeongguk and bowed.

"Must go. It was nice meeting all of you." He then turned to leave after shaking everyone's hands.

"Miyeon! If you still want to see the national history museum, you have my number." She nodded happily and Jeongguk's eyes widened.

Already?!
