A perfect date is probably something somewhere where you can kind of communicate and talk to the person. I don't like movies as first date. I don't think that's a good idea because you don't really get to talk to the person. I think taking a walk or just having one on one time with that person is the best.

"You don't like coffee ?" Asked Jungkook as he gazed at him for a second and than went back to look in the front.
His expression a little startled from the new found information.
"No, I don't." The younger shook his head.
The elder stopped his car at the red light and faced him.
"You really don't like coffee ? "
Taehyung blinked his big brown eyes and stared at him back.
"No, It tastes bitter to me."He shrugged.
Jungkook's mouth was agape before he turned to the front again and started the car,when the lights turned green.
"I like the aroma of it but not the way it taste. "
"It has that smoky and unsweetened chocolate kind of smell which I really like."
"So you like how it smells but don't like the way it tastes ?" The elder commented.
Taehyung giggled and nodded. He could tell from Jungkook's expression that his words really puzzled him.
"Well it's your preference."
"Yeah." The younger nodded with a chuckle.
They didn't say anything after that. Only the sound of vehicles passing by them with the traffic noises were heard.
"I like both the smell and taste of coffee, though."Mumbled the elder, breaking the silence.
And Taehyung broke into fits of laughter.
"I know that."
"I know, Jungkook."
★★★★★★★★
"Good afternoon sir,how are you today ?" A salesperson greeted them as soon as they entered the store.
"Good afternoon and I'm good. Thankyou for asking." Taehyung greeted back with a smile.
"So how can I help you ? "
"I'm actually looking for some formal shirts for my husband." He replied and gestured towards Jungkook, who stood beside him silently.
"Sure, follow me please." He said and turned around walking towards a specific section of the store.
"Can I have an idea of what you want ?"
"Yeah, I want the shirts that are comfortable but can be worn in the office,too. The ones that gives a professional and elegant look."Replied the younger and followed the salesperson.
"Anything else ?"
"Yes, if possible I want light coloured shirts."
Taehyung answered before Jungkook could.
"What ? Why ?"
The younger stared at him.
"Your side of closet is filled with dark coloured clothes. And why not,try something new."
The elder was about to deny it but when he saw the smile on Taehyung's face. He couldn't, the other was in a good mood and he didn't want to ruin it.
"Are you perhaps interested in prints, strips or any design ?"
"No,not any of those just plain shirts would do."
The salesperson nodded and stopped in front a display of varities of shirts.
"What about this ?"
An ivory coloured shirt was passed onto Taehyung.

The latter took the clothing item and considered it.
"I like the colour." He mumbled and placed the shirt on Jungkook's torso,who was trying to hide a scowl. The elder was not a fan of that shade.
"Do you like it ?" Questioned Taehyung and stared at him.
He gulped under the stare because the other appeared too endearing to him
"Yeah--yeah."He croaked and cleared his throat.
"I mean yes it's good."
The younger smiled and gave it to the salesperson.
"Keep it on the side, please. He'll try it later."
"Sure, sir."
"And here we have a beautiful shirt of alice blue colour." The salesperson said and showed another shirt.
"A blazer of light blue shade will look absolutely pleasing with it."
Taehyung lips curled up into a grin.
"Yes,set it aside, too and find the blazer with the colour you were talking about, please."
"Okay."
"Can you show me that shirt ?" Said Jungkook and pointed to a clothing item.
"Ofcourse sir."
"Here, it's navy blue in colour and will look good paired with black blazer and tie."
Jungkook smiled satisfied.
"Set it aside, too."
"Just than he felt someone poke his arm."
He turned to look at younger.
"What did I tell you about dark shades again ?" Questioned Taehyung with a slight pout on his lips.
"Just one,please. We are buying the other two in light colour. "He mumbled back, feeling soft 'cause of him.
"Fine." The younger grumbled a little.
"Would you like to try out the clothes, now ? I have found the perfect blazers to pair with the shirts."
"In a minute, there trousers with the shirts right? "
"Yes there are and they go perfectly well with the whole look."
"That's great."Taehyung chimed in with a smile and the salesperson smiled back.
"Show us the trial room." Jungkook Interrupted them and placed his arm on his husband's shoulder.
The salesperson nodded and gestured to his left.
"This way, sir."
★★★★★★★★★
Taehyung sat on the couch in front of the trial room and waited for Jungkook.
He covered his mouth with the hand when a yawn escaped his lips.
These days he was really tired than usual.Maybe because of all the things that are happening around him. It was all just hectic.
Just than the sound of curtains sliding over was heard and he gazed up.
There stood Jungkook in ivory coloured shirt matched with pastel pink blazer and trousers. The top button was undone.
And the elder looked really good.
Like really good. Taehyung was not able to avert his eyes from him.
"So ?" He said and raised his arms in air and did a three sixty turn.
"How is it ?"
"Good--good." Said younger and showed him a thumbs up.
"Thankyou."Jungkook gave him a charming smile and went back in.
The next with the blue shades went the same.
And Taehyung felt real jealous.
The elder looked so strikingly gorgeous in every colour.
The dark coloured clothing went the same,too.
The younger was left in awestruck.
Jeon Jungkook is one handsome fellow.
"I think they are enough." Said his husband as he came back in his own clothes.

"Yeah,they are."
"Prepare the bill for them." He mumbled to the salesperson that was standing behind them quietly.
The other nodded and went away with the clothes in his hands.
"Now, I have more formal shirts and if you want I can order some online, too and we can give them their anniversary presents a little late. It doesn't matter. So please don't stress about anything, yeah ?"
"Yes, Jungkook. I won't take stress." He replied and the elder patted his head in affection.
"Great."
"Let's get going now, we have a dinner reservation."Said the latter and streched out his hand for the other to take.
Taehyung took it with a small smile and he intervened their fingers together.
★★★★★★★★★
The younger glanced around the restaurant as a hostess guided them to their table.
It looked like it was a quiet night as not many were seen in the restaurant except a few.
Their table was at one of the reserved part which made him feel relieved as Taehyung didn't want any unnecessary attention.
Jungkook pulled a chair for him. And helped him sit before he took a seat himself.
A wine bucket was on there table with the candles that were illuminating and helped the atmosphere become more delightful.
And the wondrous melody of violin in the background gave it an idyllic setting.
"All this looks so dazzling, Jungkook."He said in amazement.
"It is but not more than you."
Words escaped from his lips but he didn't regret it a bit when he saw younger's cheek turn a beautiful tint of red.
"What do you want to have ?" He asked in a gentle tone.
A waitress came to their table and introduced herself and passed them the menu.
"Have some time to decide. I'll be back." She muttered politely and walked away.
"So, what do you want to have ?" The elder repeated his question.
"Actually I have been wanting to eat Japanese for a while."
"Sure. What in particular, though ?"
Taehyung stared at the menu in thought reading the section he was interested in.
"What about sesame crusted tofu, seafood stew and marinated Japanese style chicken wings ? "
"Yeah it's fine. But dessert ? "
"Green tea mochi and Dorayaki." He said excited. It's been long he has these sugary treats.
"Perfect."Replied Jungkook with a grin.
"Drinks ? "
"Just water."
"Okay.I'll have the same as you,than. "
★★★★★★★★
"There are things that I love-"
"Like chocolate, strawberries, jjajangmyeon, Kimchi pancakes oh--there's kimchi fried rice--"
"There just so many." Said Taehyung and took a sip of water.
Jungkook listened to him silently and talked in between when he found that they liked something same.
★★★★★★★★
The waitress took all the used dinnerware and replaced them with the one filled with dessert.
Jungkook wiped his face with a napkin.
"I talked to someone I know in KU(Korea University ). She is at a higher position. And she told me that you can enroll in online classes in the same course. "
Taehyung bobbed his head and took a bite of Dorayaki.
"But she also said that it will be difficult for you to start from where you left in the course."
"What why ? "
"They said that the curriculum has changed and you have a gap year of more than a year."
"But only last year is left. I don't want to start from the beginning again." Said the younger,upset.
"I know, I'll try that you continue from where you stopped."
"Give me your important college documents, tomorrow. I'll see. "
"Oh okay."
"By the way-"
"Yes."
"When we measured our heights you were wearing insoles. Weren't you ?"
Taehyung scoffed and stared at him in disbelief.
"No,I was not." He said offended.
"Yes,you were."
"No."
"Yes."
"You totally were."
"No."
"You were."
"No and shut up."
"Why are you getting angry ? It can be only because you know I'm saying the truth." Jungkook teased him even when he knew that everything he said is false.
He just said it because it's really amusing to see his husband all riled up.
Taehyung huffed annoyed.
"I don't wear insoles. I don't even have them."
"Yes,you do."
"No,Jungkook."
★★★★★★★★
"Did you enjoy it ?" Asked the elder as he paid the bill and left the waitress a generous tip.
"Yes,I did."
"It's been some time since I went out like this." Said Taehyung and Jungkook felt a pang in his chest.
A sudden regret because of the way he acted in past.
"I'm sorry. I'll make sure that we go out like this three times a month or even more."
"I promise."
Taehyung felt his heart flutter at the other words. He didn't say anything just took elder's hand in his and gave it a small squeeze.
Jungkook looked at him with a small smile and squeezed their hands, too.
When the younger sensed that the other felt better. He tried to pull his hand away slowly.
But the elder didn't let him and when Taehyung gazed at him.
Jungkook was already looking in the front and was guiding them outside the restaurant.
And his heart fluttered yet again.
★★★★★★★★
A frown took over his face when he saw how Jungkook lead them in the opposite direction from where their car was.
"But--but the car is on that side. "He said confused and pointed in the right direction.
Jungkook chuckled and looked at him.
"I know. I just thought that after a delicious dinner. A walk with a gorgeous company like you will be good. "
Taehyung immediately ducked his head to hide the blush.
And the elder really enjoyed the sight. However this time he didn't know that the blush was because of him or because of the cold this time.
He hoped that it was because of him.
"So, will you like to take a walk with me at such a beautiful but cold night ? "Said Jungkook and placed Taehyung's hand on his arm.
The younger giggled and nodded, tightening his hold on other's arm which resulted in them being more closer to each other.
"Let's go." He exclaimed.
The couple started to stroll around on the snow covered streets with the shinning moon and stars above them.

The Pugilist
Vincent Roy Salazar has never been your common folk. He climbed any mountain he found in front of him. From a bright young student to an accomplished professor, his life can be described as a continuous race to the top of his chosen fields. Patriarch of a loving family, proud father of three already grown siblings, Roy realizes that his life is the perfect picture of what the average man strives for, and for that he is truly grateful. But happiness is a difficult-to-reach goal, and as he lies in a pool of his own blood, his fist cracked, a young lady crying while cradling his head, he remembers what really gave sense to his youth. Pure Unadulterated Violence The Pugilist wants to be a different take on isekai shenanigans. What would happen if instead of a moronic idiot, a depressed high schooler, or a wannabe hero the one to get his do-over is a fully grown man that has already seen what life has to offer in full? Someone who conformed himself to society, but has always craved something different? In a journey of self-discovery, academy building, god-slaying, and absolutely no harem we follow someone driven by logic, experience, and a smokey goal: to fuck shit up, have fun while doing so, and maybe resume his career as a professor for those strange, magic-wielding, unstable youths that seems to never get enough of his presence. Guys, a few notes, first of all, this is my first time writing long-form fiction. I have a background in psychology, and my main income comes from writing dreary financial articles on SEO blogs. But after a bad break-up, and finding myself falling asleep only while thinking of deus ex machina for stories on this site (and for APGTE) I decided to try my hand at this web series thingy. I'm confident in my grammar, but that's it. Everything else will be a first time, and as such any constructive criticism is encouraged and gratefully accepted. Now, on the story. Romance will be introduced once my little heart is mended, if you are scared of LGBT you may be turned off by the fact that I plan to have no taboo of any kind in my universe, but I won't ever write detailed sex scenes for any characters so don't worry too much. The litRPG part is very light and will take place later in the novel, but it's a key component nonetheless, for world-building and storyline reasons. I already have everything big planned out, so I won't drop it outta nowhere, and I hope you won't find too many flaws in how things pan out. I plan to make The Pugilist an interactive story, with secondary characters created by my audience and introduced after tweaks and careful planning. The main reason I'm writing this is that I want to build a community for myself in this time of isolation. I discovered that exercising, playing the piano or video games means jack-shit when you are utterly miserable, so I hope to give some value to my readers in exchange for praise, fame, money, and companionship. I give full props to anyone who has read this whole mess of a synopsis: I hope to not disappoint too much, now let's write some more steaming garbage that will be in dire need of editing later on.
