Tae can't sleep. He tried everything but is still unable to fall asleep. He is feeling rather restless or should I say excited because tomorrow Jungkook is finally coming back.

It's the night before the day Jungkook is scheduled to come back and Tae can't wait for the morning to come so that his love will be finally in front him, finally he will be able hug him, kiss him, listen to his heartbeat.

He was done talking to Jungkook an hour ago, where they both had talked about how much they have missed each other in these seven days and how they can't wait to meet each other again. Tae is trying to sleep from then on but sleep refuses to come to him.

Apart from the fact that Jungkook is finally coming back, Tae has another reason to feel both excited and nervous. The reason is his impending confession. He is going to confess his love to Jungkook tomorrow after he returns. He has planned a little surprise for the love of his life. He is going back home tomorrow morning to work on that surprise.

Yes home, that apartment where he lives with his husband, his Kookie is now his home. Somehow Kim Mansion, the place where his parents live, where he grew up, doesn't seem like home to him anymore because now to him, home is where Jungkook, his husband, his love lives. Jungkook is his home now and he is very much eager to go back to his home, to the loving embrace of his Kookie.

After another thirty minutes, he gave up trying to sleep. He got down from the bed and walked out of the room.

Jin and Namjoon were lying in their bed. They had almost fallen asleep when someone knocked on the door.

"I'll see it," Namjoon said to Jin and went to open the door.

As Namjoon opened the door, he saw a pouting Tae standing there. "Tae what happened?" He said.

"I can't fall asleep" Tae said in a small voice "can I please sleep here?" He asked.

"Sure, you don't have to say please for it" Namjoon said "come" he held Tae's hand and took him inside.

Jin saw Namjoon coming to bed holding Tae's hand "Taebear?" He said.

"He isn't able to sleep" Namjoon informed his husband. Jin understood Tae must not be able to sleep thinking about Jungkook.

"Aww my poor Taebear" he cooed "come here Eomma will give you a tight hug" he spread his arms. Tae immediately threw himself in his Eomma's embrace. He buried his face in Jin's chest. Namjoon sat on the bed beside the Eomma son duo and rubbed Tae's back soothingly.

"Missing Jungkook?" Jin asked and Tae nodded his head "don't worry he is coming back tomorrow. You won't have to miss him anymore after tomorrow" Jin told him.

"Hmm" Tae hummed.

"Do you want to sleep between Eomma Appa like you used to in childhood?" Jin inquired "yes" came the answer.

"Okay then let's do it" Jin made Tae sleep on the bed between him and Namjoon. He gently closed the boy's eyes and started running his fingers through Tae's hair, all the while humming a tune that he used to sing as lullaby when Tae was a kid.

Soothed by his Eomma's soft touch and soothing voice, feeling protected lying between his parents, the golden haired boy finally slipped into deep slumber.

Both Jin and Namjoon looked affectionately at their sleeping son "he really grew up so much didn't he?" Namjoon asked in an emotional voice.

"Hmm he did" Jin said "but to me he will always be my little Taebear" he added.

"He seems to be really happy nowadays" Namjoon mused.

"He is indeed happy" Jin informed him "Jungkook really makes our child very much happy. I am happy we married him to Jungkook" he said.

"I wish they will always stay happy just like now" Namjoon said thoughtfully.

"I too wish for the same," Jin told him and lovingly kissed his sleeping son on his forehead. Namjoon too did the same.

The couple entwined their hands and placed their joined hands on their sleeping son, finally letting sleep engulf them.

The next morning as Tae woke up, he found himself lying alone in his parents bed surrounded by pillows. He smiled seeing the pillows around him, his parents still treated him like a four year old kid, he thought, shaking his head.

He remembered another person who too sometimes treats him like a four year old, that is his husband, his Kookie, the love of his life who is coming back today.

"Kookie is coming back today" this thought filled his heart with elation.

Suddenly Tae's eyes fell on the clock which is showing 7:30 and Jungkook's flight is scheduled to leave from Singapore at 8:30KST.

"Oh no, he must have already reached the airport, I want to talk to him before he boards," Tae thought. He looked around for his phone "where is my phone?" He thought and then remembered that he had left it in his room. He immediately got down from the bed and ran to his room.

He found his phone ringing as soon as he reached the room. He picked it up before it got disconnected "h..hello K..kookie" he said while panting heavily.

"Baby? You okay? What happened? Why are you panting? Why are you not talking? Baby?" Jungkook bombarded him with questions, feeling worried.

"Kookie, Kookie, calm down okay" Tae said trying to calm the worried male down "I am okay, nothing happened to me. I forgot my phone in the room and came back running to get it. That's why I am panting" he let his husband know.

Jungkook finally exhaled hearing it "oh okay." He said.

"Hmm okay" Tae smiled "now tell me where are you? Are you still in the hotel or in the airport?" Tae inquired.

"I am in the airport. I will just be checking in, I wanted to talk to you before that. That's why I called you" Jungkook told him.

"I too wanted to talk to you before you board," Tae informed him. "I will be waiting for you at our home," he told Jungkook.

A beautiful smile bloomed on Jungkook's lips hearing the Tae's words "okay then I will meet you at our home, love, wait for me" he said and this time it's Tae who's face brightened up in a beautiful smile.

"Come back soon Kookie" Tae told Jungkook who replied"I'll very soon."

Jungkook heard the call for passenger check in. "baby I'll have to hang up now. They are calling to check in" he said to Tae.

"Oh okay then" Tae told him "have a safe journey Kookie"

"I love you baby," Jungkook told him before hanging up and cutting the call.

Tae held the phone on his chest "I love you too, please come back to me already" he whispered to himself.

It's 10am when Tae reached their apartment. Jungkook will be coming at 2pm, so he has a lot of time to prepare for his surprise.

"Home sweet home" Tae sang as he entered their home "I missed you too my sweet home" he said to no one particular. He kept his luggage in his room and got a black jeans out of the wardrobe.

Holding the piece of clothing in his hand he went to Jungkook's room. As he entered the room, a feeling of nostalgia hit him, remembering all the love filled moments he spent there with his husband. He can't wait to live many more of them. His eyes fell on the grey t-shirt that was lying on the bed, the one Jungkook had last worn on the day of his leaving.

Tae picked the t-shirt up and held it near his nose, inhaling the unique smell of Jungkook that still is lingering on the cloth. "hmm I missed this smell" he thought "from today I can again smell it as much as I want" he thought smiling. Still sniffing the cloth, he sat on the bed and touched it with his fingers, oh how he has missed sleeping on this bed, even more the person in whose warm embrace he sleeps on it. But from today he won't have to miss it ever again.

Tae had told Jungkook that he is not letting him go on such a long business trip ever again and if Jungkook really needs to go then he is going to tag along. But there's no way that Tae is going to stay away for so many days from his husband.

Tae placed the t-shirt again on the bed and got up from it. He went and opened Jungkook's wardrobe, scanning through it, he took out a red hoodie out. Tae really likes this particular hoodie, Jungkook's wardrobe is all about black, white, grey and a little bit of blue and though he looks godly in every damn piece of clothes, this particular red piece of clothing seems to make him look out of the world. Tae still remembers how he had almost forgotten to breathe, the first time he had seen his husband in this hot red hoodie and stared open mouthed at him and Jungkook had teased him "you are drooling baby" he had said smirking, making Tae turn beat red.

Tae remembered how he had whined and hid his face in Jungkook's broad chest. How Jungkook hugged him and laughed out loud "my cute baby" he had said, his laughter still resonating in their living room. Tae can't wait to burry his head again in that warm chest and hear that laughter again.

Tae changed his clothes into Jungkook's red hoodie and black jeans. He went to the kitchen and started preparing his surprise, that is his handmade food for his Kookie. Tae knows Jungkook becomes happy in little things, you don't have to do anything big to make him happy all you just have to do is putting all your heart and love in what you are doing. That's what Tae did, he put all his love in the food he made. He had cooked some traditional Korean dishes knowing Jungkook really enjoys those.

It was little past 1 one when Tae was finally done with the cooking. Jungkook is supposed to come at 2, so Tae decided to kill the remaining time by watching something on TV.

He went to the living room and turned on the TV. He was about to go and sit on the couch when the doorbell rang.

"Who could it be?" Tae thought as he went to open the door.

He went and opened the door and two guys were standing there with two big boxes and a big canvas like thing packed in brown paper.

"We are from Magic Shop Gallery. We brought your photos" one of the guys informed him.

"Oh the photos are done." Tae said excitedly.

Now if you all remember Tae had told Jungkook that he wants their photos in their house, so these are the same photos.

"Where should we keep this, sir?" The guy asked Tae.

"Oh put them in the living room. Come with me, I'll show you" he took them inside and showed them the place to put the things.

The guys left after Tae thanked them for their service. Tae went and sat on the floor where the photos were kept. He unwrapped the big frame that was out of the box.

It was a photo of them with a beautiful waterfall in the background. This was taken at Cheonjeyeon falls when the visited it in Jeju trip.

Tae was facing the camera while Jungkook was back hugging him. The older has his head resting on Tae's shoulder and was staring at him with eyes full of love. They both have beautiful smiles plastered on their faces. The photos is indeed beautiful.

The moment his eyes had fell on this photo,Tae had decided that he wants this photo on the wall behind the bed in their room.

Oh yes their room Tae has decided that he is officially going to move into Jungkook's room. Though he still pretty much lives in that room only, he is yet to move in officially and he has planned to do that tonight. He has so many plans for today, he thought excitedly.

He picked the photo frame up and took it to soon to be their room. He hanged the picture on the place he had earlier decided. Oh how shocked Jungkook will be seeing it here, he thought gleefully.

He came back to the living room after hanging the photo. The tv was still on. Tae going to where the boxes were kept when something caught his ears, a number, he went near the TV to hear it clearly.

Air Korea flight, boing 22743, from Singapore to Seoul, had crashed into the sea before entering South Korea, today at 1pm. According to our sources none of the flight crew or passengers survived. Our deepest condolences are with those who lost their near ones in this unfortunate accident.

Tae's eyes widened, his heart almost stopped hearing the news, it's the same flight in which Jungkook was supposed to be coming back.

You can see the names of the passengers traveling by the plane at the bottom of this news.

Tae kept staring at the bottom of the screen where they were showing the names of the people who died in that crash.
