It's the day of the final competition and just like other participants, Tae too is very excited. He is very satisfied with the pictures he took at the beach and hoping for a good result.

Tae has kept the photos surprise from his friends, no matter how much they asked or cribbed, he didn't let them see those, not even Jimin.

"See them at the competition", that's what he told his friends and so his friends are going to attend the competition as audience. The competition is going to be held after lunch and because it's the finale anyone who wants to can attend it. So all of Tae's friends including Jimin are going to be there to cheer for him.

Currently the classroom of the first years is empty, all the students are at the university garden. Their professor is demonstrating something about wildlife photography there.

Suddenly the door of the empty classroom opened and a girl tiptoed inside. After entering the girl quickly closed the door and walked into the classroom looking for a particular bag and soon she spotted it.

The girl is one of the two minions Lee Minju and I think you all can guess whose bag she was looking for, yes Tae's. She didn't have to put much effort into finding Tae's bag, after all not everyone in the class carries a designer Gucci bag.

Reaching the bag, the girl once looked around to make sure no one was coming, then she opened the bag and put her hand inside, searching for something. Soon her hands got hold of what she was looking for and brought it out.

In her hand was a pendrive, the same pendrive in which Tae have kept the photos for the competition. She looked at it with eyes filled with vengeance,

"Jeon Taehyung, because of you our Minju got suspended and you think we will let you get away with it so easily" she thought as she dropped the pendrive on the floor and stepped on it with her high heels, stomping and breaking it into two. Then she picked up those broken pieces and looked at them with an evil smirk, "You are so eager to win this competition aren't you, Jeon Taehyung? Forget about winning, let's see how you participate after this" with this thought she took out the water bottle from Tae's bag and opened it's cap, she dropped those broken pieces of pendrive into the bottle. Then recapping the bottle, she once again put it inside the bag and after closing the bag, she left from there.

She opened the door of the classroom and exited the classroom as sneakily as she came. Once outside, she again closed the door and looked at her friend, the other minion of Minju who was standing outside the classroom as a guard, with a triumphant smile.

"Done?" Her friend asked.

"Yeah done" the girl grinned.

"Let's go then, we need to inform Minju" the other girl said and they left from there with evil grins on their faces.

After a while the class was over and the students of first year returned to their class.

A happily giggling Tae entered the classroom with his friends, EunWoo, HyeYoon and Rowoon. HyeYoon was glaring hard at her boyfriend Rowoon who was looking at her with a cribbing face and Tae and EunWoo were laughing at his plight.

"HyeYoonie please listen to me, please don't be angry on me, you know I love you right" Rowoon whined only to have his girlfriend glare at him even harder.

"Yeah right you love me but that doesn't mean you have to always act so possessive" HyeYoon hissed at him.

"And stupid" EunWoo piped in and this time Rowoon glared at him.

"Really Rowoon, what you did was just too much" this time Tae said between his giggles, "you became so defensive just because a girl hugged her"

"And told her that she has no chance with your girlfriend and that she should stay away from her," EunWoo added.

"So what did you expect me to do, she was flirting with my girlfriend and if that was not enough she dared to hug her" Rowoon said defensively.

"For God's sake Rowoon..ah she wasn't flirting with me or anything, she just liked my bracelet and was asking about where I bought that from and hugged me to thank me when I gave her the address of the shop I got it for" an exasperated HyeYoon said.

"Anyway, why were you getting so possessive, she is a girl for God's sake, why would she be interested in stealing your girlfriend?" Tae asked.

"Says the boy who has a husband" Rowoon rolled his eyes.

"Yiah what do mean by that, hmm? What does me and my husband have to do with it?" Tae asked, narrowing his eyes.

"I mean just like you are a boy and have a husband because you are interested in men, what if that girl is also interested in girls and wants my HyeYoonie, then? So I need to always be alert" Rowoon explained, making the other three gap at him.

"You are just impossible" Tae huffed at Rowoon, "you know what, go and join teams with Kookie and Yoongi hyung. You three will make a great team, a jealous bunny, a jealous cat and a jealous giraffe" he said and walked away towards his seat with the other three following him, Rowoon pouting while HyeYoon and EunWoo laughed at him.

Tae reached his seat and opened his bag, "god I feel so drained after talking with this crazy Rowoon, my throat is all dried up. Let me drink some water" he mumbled and took his water bottle out.

Tae's eyes widened in shock and horror as his eyes fell on his water bottle,

"No!" He gasped.

Jungkook was in his cabin, checking some files when his phone rang. A big smile bloomed on his lips seeing the name on the collar id, "My Angel ❤️".

"Baby," Jungkook received the call with the big smile on his face but it soon changed into a frown as he heard Tae's hiccuping voice on the other side.

"K..Kookie," Tae whimpered.

Jungkook was on alert at once, hearing Tae whimpering and hiccuping, worry filling his heart.

"Baby! what happened? Are you okay? Why are you crying Angel?" He worriedly asked.

"K..kookie.. m...my p..photos…. K..kookie.. wh..what… d..do… I… do…" Tae kept babbling incoherently, still crying and hiccuping.

"Baby, baby, please don't cry hmm, please don't, please tell Kookie what happened?" Jungkook said getting up from his chair and looking for car keys to go to the university, to his husband.

"K...Kookie… K..Kookie" Tae still wasn't saying anything except hiccuping and calling for him, making Jungkook worried sick for him.

Jungkook realized that Tae wouldn't be able to say anything like that, he had to go to him to know what happened and that's what he was intending to do. He found his car keys and was ready to leave his cabin when he heard another voice from the phone.

"Jungkook hyung, it's me EunWoo" the voice said.

"EunWoo, what happened to Tae? Why is he crying so much, did he get hurt? Did someone say anything to him? Is it those bullies again, did they again do something to him?" Jungkook bombarded EunWoo with all the questions at once.

"No hyung he isn't hurt and no one said anything to him or bullied him" EunWoo said reassuringly as he can feel that Jungkook was really worried.

"No? Then what happened? Why is he crying so much?" Jungkook asked, feeling puzzled.

"Actually Hyung, his pendrive, the one in which he had the photos for competition, is destroyed" EunWoo informed him.

"What do you mean by it being destroyed? How did it get destroyed?" A shocked Jungkook inquired.

"We too don't know that Hyung. Our professor took us to the garden for class and when we came back, Tae took out his water bottle and found his pendrive inside it, broken into two. At first he was really shocked seeing it and then he started crying and he crying from then on" EunWoo told him.

Jungkook was both stunned and worried hearing it, that pendrive had his baby's hardwork in it. He knows very well how important that pendrive was for Tae, he has put a lot of hard work in those photos and was really hoping for a good result in the finale and now that thing is destroyed along with all his hard work, no wonder the boy was crying so much, he must be really devastated. But the question was how did it happen, how did the pendrive reach inside the water bottle and that too in pieces. Anger surged through his veins as it dawned on Jungkook someone must have done it intentionally, breaking the pendrive and putting it inside the bottle and wanted to crush that someone who dared to mess with his precious baby and make him cry. But that can be done later he decided. His first priority is his husband, he needs to help him and he knows how to do that.

"EunWoo, where are you guys right now?" Jungkook asked as he returned back to his seat and pressed the button of the intercom.

"We are in the back garden of the university. Tae was crying so much and wasn't in the state to attend the class, so we brought him here" EunWoo answered.

"Okay listen I'll be there as soon as possible but till then please be with him" Jungkook requested, he was going to say something more when Mrs Yoon knocked and entered the cabin.

"You called for me sir?" Mrs Yoon said.

"Yes Mrs Yoon, I need an empty pendrive, please get me one fast" Jungkook told her.

"Yes sir I'll just bring it" saying so Mrs Yoon left the room.

"EunWoo" Jungkook called EunWoo who was still on the phone with him, "give the phone to Tae" he told him.

EunWoo handed the phone back to Tae who put it on his ear and, "K..Kookie" again hiccuped.

Jungkook felt his heart breaking hearing his baby hiccuping and what Tae said next broke his heart even more.

"K..Kookie.. I.. I.. want to… want to go h..home Kookie…." Tae choked out between his hiccups making Jungkook realize how distressed he was because, 'take me home', 'I want to go home', he says these whenever he is in real distress.

Jungkook just wanted to rush to his baby and hug him tight, kiss him and sooth him feeling Tae's distress but he knew he had something to do before he did that so he decided to try and comfort his baby as much as he can through the call.

"Baby, Angel" Jungkook lovingly called the boy.

"K..kookie" Tae whimpered.

"Baby, my Taetae you trust your Kookie hyung, don't you love?" Jungkook asked as if talking to a four year old Tae.

"I.. I do, Taetae t..trust Kookie hyung" came the adorable reply from his weeping husband.

"Then please listen to Kookie hyung and stop crying hmm? He is going to make it alright, okay" Jungkook told the crying boy.

"B..but Kookie m..my pen...pendrive, my p..photos" Tae again hiccuped.

"Ssh… Angel don't cry, what did I tell you, hmm? I told you right, I'm going to make it alright, then I'll do it" Jungkook said.

"You will?" Tae questioned innocently.

"Yes baby I will, I promise I will but you have to do something for me before I do that" Jungkook replied.

"What?" Tae asked.

"You have to stop crying and wait for me, you can do that right?" Jungkook replied.

"O..okay I.. I will do t..that" Tae answered like an innocent little kid.

"Good, my good baby" Jungkook cooed, "you just wait a little, I'll be there soon" he told the boy.

"O..okay" Tae replied.

"That's like my Angel," Jungkook said lovingly, "now please stop crying and give the phone to EunWoo, I need to tell him something" he told Tae who handed the phone to EunWoo.

"K..kookie wants to t..talk to y..you" Tae told EunWoo.

"Yes Hyung," EunWoo said, putting the phone to his ear.

"EunWoo, I'm coming there in a while till then be with Tae and if you can please try to make him drink some water," Jungkook requested.

"Sure hyung I'll do that," EunWoo replied.

"Alright then I'll hang up now," Jungkook cut the call.

Just as Jungkook was putting his phone in his pocket, the door of his cabin opened and Mrs Yoon entered holding a pendrive in her hand.

"Sir the pendrive" she handed it to Jungkook.

"Thank you Mrs Yoon" Jungkook started inserting the pendrive in his laptop, "I need to go out for a while, do I have any meetings today?" He asked his secretary.

"Yes sir you have a meeting at 3pm today" Mrs Yoon informed her boss.

"Ah okay, I'll be back before that," Jungkook told his secretary.

"Okay sir then I'll take your leave now" saying so Mrs Yoon left the cabin.

Jungkook searched for a particular folder. He found the folder and opened it. There were some photos inside it, the photos that Tae had taken on the beach.

Well Jungkook liked those photos very much and that's why he kept a copy of them in his laptop. It's like an intuition, something told him that he should keep those with him and he did. And he is really thankful that he did so and also for the fact that of all the days, today he brought his personal laptop to office as he needed it for the meeting later.

Jungkook quickly transferred the photos in the pendrive and then taking it out of the laptop, he closed his laptop and put the pendrive in his pocket and exited his cabin to go to SNU with his husband.

Jungkook went to the lift and pressed it's button. As the door of the lift opened and Jungkook entered,

"Jungkook?" he heard his father-in-law's voice.

"Appa, you are you going somewhere?" Jungkook asked, seeing his father-in-law in the lift.

"Yes, I have a meeting in the finance department, so I'm going there" Namjoon answered, "but what about you? Where are you going?" He asked.

"Yes appa, I'm going to Tae's university" Jungkook answered.

"Tae's university?" Namjoon looked at Jungkook with puzzled eyes, "why suddenly? Did something happen? Is he okay?" He worriedly asked but then he remembered something, "don't tell me he is again bullied?" He asked angrily, feeling enraged at the thought of someone hurting his precious child.

Well Tae had told Jin about him getting bullied in the university and Jungkook making sure that the bully got her due punishment and from Jin Namjoon too had got to know it. Namjoon was really angry when he got to know about it, he was almost going to file a lawsuit against the girl but Jin had somehow calmed down and stopped doing it by informing him that Jungkook had already taken care of it. That's why today when Jungkook told him that he was going to Tae's university, he thought maybe again someone bullied his child and that thought made him enraged.

"Appa actually….." Jungkook informed his father-in-law about what had happened.

"What, what do mean by his pendrive got destroyed? How could it be destroyed by itself? I'm sure it's someone's doing" Namjoon said.

"Yes appa, I too think so, I think someone intentionally did it so that Tae won't be able to participate in the competition. Someone is trying to hurt him" Jungkook affirmed.

"If that's the case, then we have to put a stop on it. Today they destroyed his pendrive what if they try to harm him in some other way in future, we have to do something about it. We need to take action against whoever it is" Namjoon said in a serious voice.

"Yes appa I'm planning to do that only. I'm going to university, first I'll meet Baby, he seemed to be in real distress" Jungkook's voice turned worried, "first I need to take care of him, make him calm then I'll go and meet the principal and talk about this matter" he informed Namjoon.

"Alright but you are not meeting with the principal alone, I'll go with you. I'll be there in university after my meeting. I'll give you a call once I reach there, then we will go to the principal" Namjoon said.

"Okay Appa, let's do that" Jungkook nodded.

Soon the lift stopped at the floor where Namjoon was supposed to get down.

"Alright Jungkook, meet you at the university" saying this Namjoon exited the lift.

Tae was sitting on a bench in the back garden of the university. He had his head lowered and was still sniffing, he was sitting clutching onto the pendant of his necklace, he always does that whenever he feels sad, emotional, nervous or scared, that pendant is kinda his source of strength and solace, it comforts him as to him it symbolizes Jungkook's love and that is his biggest strength and solace.

Tae's friends were also there with him, HyeYoon and Rowoon were sitting on both sides of him, HyeYoon had her hand around him in a comforting manner while EunWoo was kneeling in front him holding a water bottle and trying to make him drink some water. But Tae wasn't ready to do that, he didn't want water, he just wanted his Kookie. At that all moment all he wished was to be wrapped in the warm embrace of his love and that wish of him soon got fulfilled as a familiar voice called him,

"Tae, baby" Jungkook, who just reached there, called out.

Tae snapped his head up hearing Jungkook's voice, tears once again started pouring down his face,

"K..Kookie" Tae whimpered and ran to Jungkook.

Jungkook saw Tae running towards himself and he opened his arms for the boy. Tae reached his husband and threw himself on the man who immediately wrapped his arms around the boy. Burying his face in Jungkook's neck Tae once again started sobbing.

Jungkook felt his heart clenching hearing his baby's sobs and feeling his body trembling in his embrace. He tightened his arms around Tae.

"Ssh… baby don't cry, my Angel please don't cry, see your Kookie is here, he is going to make to everything alright but you just stop crying, hmm love" Jungkook said soothingly as he rubbed Tae's back and kissed the top of his head to comfort him.

"K..Kookie.. m..my.. p..photos.. th..they are a..all g..gone.. Kookie… wh..what.. will I d..do.. in t..the.. com..comp.." Tae whimpered, almost getting breathless.
