Taehyung & Jungkook are currently sitting in Pizza Hut, celebrating Taehyung's victory over his arch enemy Maths, with a big cheese pizza.

"Uhm.. Tae" Jungkook started "I wanted to ask you something"

"Hmm.. tell me" Tae replied mouth full of pizza.

"I want to take you somewhere on Sunday. Will you come with me?" The older asked.

Tae, who busy getting a pizza slice, looked up from the plate & looked at Jungkook's face,

"Ahm.. are you perhaps asking me out on a date?" he inquired "Jungkook you know how we...."

"No.. no, I'm not asking you for date" Jungkook cut him "I just want to take you to a special place. It's ok if you don't come. I don't want to make you uncomfortable."

"Oh, you want to take to some special place not date" Tae farther inquired.

Jungkook nodded his head " yes. Will you come?" He asked with a eager look on his face face.

"Okay. I'll go with you. You want to go on Sunday right. Then Sunday it is" Tae told the raven haired smiling.

"Thanks Tae." Jungkook replied showing his cute bunny smile.

And Tae found himself lost in the other boys beautiful smile.

It was past midnight when Jungkook woke up feeling thirsty. He reached for the bottle on the beside table, half opening his eyes. But he didn't find the bottle. "Looks like I forgot to keep it" he thought & got up to go to the kitchen & get some water. He noticed a thunderstorm going on outside. He remembered the sky was clear when he slept for the night. Don't know from where this storm appeared.

While he was coming back from kitchen, he heard whimpering sounds coming from Tae's room. He got curious & decided to check on the boy.

Opening the door, he found Tae sitting on the bed. His hands wrapped around his knees, head tucked between them, shivering & whimpering. As a lightening struck the sky loudly, he started shivering & shaking even more.

He is scared of thunderstorm, Jungkook realized & rushed towards the shaking boy on the bed. He placed his hand on Tae's head & said "Tae, shh.. look at me. See I'm here. You don't need to be scared."

As soon as those words left his mouth, Tae looked at his face & then as another lightening struck, he hugged Jungkook tightly. "I'm scared" he said whimpering, holding Jungkook's t-shirt in his tight fists & hiding his face in the older's chest & started crying.

"Shh.. Baby, don't cry. what did I tell you, huh? As long as I'm here you don't need to be scared of anything. I'll be with you" Jungkook said, hugging him tightly too. Kept rubbing his back & started gently rocking the scared boy.

Taehyung felt safe in his warm embrace. Soothed by his husband's gentle voice & reassuring words, he finally felt sleep engulfing him.

Jungkook felt the heavy breathing of the other boy. He broke the hug & looked at the sleeping face of the younger. He felt his heart filling with warmth looking at the innocent face of his husband. He gently stroked his forehead.

He then made the sleeping boy lie on the bed & covered him with the blanket. As he tried to get up from the bed, Tae again whimpered missing his warmth. Jungkook stilled for a moment, then he too lied beside the boy. Tae immediately hugged him wanting to feel his warmth.

"May be just for today I'll stay with you. I know you don't want me near you like this. May be you'll be angry on me when you wake up tomorrow. I'll bear with your anger but today I'll stay with you." With these thoughts Jungkook closed his eyes welcoming the sleep.

The next morning when Taehyung woke up he found himself cuddled with someone. His face his buried on that person's chest, hands clutching that person's grey t-shirt & that person is hugging him by his waist.

Tae got puzzled for a moment finding himself in that position. As he looked up to see whom he cuddling with, he came face to with Jungkook's sleeping face. The raven haired has his eyes closed, his bunny teeth poking his lips & his breathes coming in puffs. To Tae he looked like a cute defenseless child while sleeping.

Looking at Jungkook's face, the memories of last night came back to him, him getting scared of the thunderstorm, Jungkook coming to his room, hugging & soothing him saying 'I'm here' again & again & finally him falling asleep in Jungkook's warm embrace.

He has always been scared of thunderstorm. His Eomma always stayed with him on those times, hiding him in his warm embrace. But last night he was alone in this room. He didn't had his Eomma with him & he was scared. He didn't know what to do. He felt alone & miserable.

But then Jungkook appeared. The older boy hugged him, soothed him, made him sleep. And looks like he stayed with him the whole night to make sure he's okay.

While Tae was lost in his thoughts, Jungkook slowly opened his eyes. The first thing he saw was Taehyung's beautiful eys staring at him. He suddenly realized their position & immediately sat on the bed.

"Ahm.. Tae I..I'm sorry. I know you d..don't like me touching you. But last night you w..were.. aah.. I couldn't leave you alone. I..." he kept fumbling while trying to explain Tae why he was in the younger's bed, while looking guilty at the boy.

Tae felt a tug in his heart seeing how Jungkook kept fumbling while trying to explain. Tae didn't like the guilty look on the older boy's face. So he cut him & said,

"Jungkook you don't have to say sorry or explain anything to me. I know what happened. You didn't do anything wrong. I'm not angry or something"

Jungkook looked at his face, eyes wide. "Y.. you are not angry on me?" He asked unsuredly.

"Yes, Jungkook I'm not angry with you. Actually thank you for coming here last night & staying with me. I don't what I would have done alone. So thank you so much." Tae replied sincerely.

Jungkook finally smiled hearing Tae's words.

"I'll always be there for you, Tae." He told Tae , his eyes full of nothing but honesty.

And Taehyung's heart lost a beat.
