Jungkook walked inside the kitchen and heaved out a sigh of relief when he saw neither yejin nor somin was present. They sometimes make food together but now jungkook wanted the kitchen just for himself.

There was only suzy preparing the ingredients for the dinner menu as it was evening.

"Evening, master jungkook.. Do you need something", she asked noticing the younger male.

"Oh don't bother aunt", jungkook said going for the bowl. He grabbed some flour, dried strawberry power along with the fruits itself, vanilla essence, baking powder, sugar, eggs, butter and the rest of the ingredients and utensils needed to make a cake.

"Noona.. Where is the strawberry whipped cream powder that I asked to bring", jungkook asked not getting his desired flavor he wanted.

"Oh it's in the upper cabinet", she herself grabbed it for him.

"Are you baking a cake?", she asked smiling.

"Yes", came a short reply with a small smile from the younger.

Jungkook made a vanilla flavored batter first, pouring it in a round shaped mould before putting it inside the oven to bake. Then he made another strawberry flavored batter and poured it in a love shaped mould and kept it aside.

He was already done with the two seperate whipped cream and decorated the vanilla one with some chocolates and let it set in the freezer as his other one was let aside to cool down.

Somin walked inside just to be surprised seeing jungkook busy with chopping some strawberries. He didn't even acknowledge her presence and neither she greeted him. Yejin wasn't here so they doesn't need to pretend to be civil because clearly they can never be in good terms. It will be a magic then.

She was curious as to why would the male bake some cake all of a sudden but her tongue was tied with her big ego and rather busied herself in making dinner.

Not long after yejin walked in and returned the greets that jungkook and somin did with small smile.

"Are you baking something, dear?", yejin asked and somin's ear's perked up.

"Yeah.. cake", jungkook said forcing a smile.

"But mom no one likes strawberry cake as it's too sweet for everyone's taste bud", of course somin has to butt in and she guesses it was strawberry as only that particular cream and fruits were seen, the sponge was pink is color as well.

"It's not for everyone", jungkook replied curtly without looking up at the lady.

"Are you making it for yourself then?", somin mocked and jungkook completely ignored her where as yejin rolled her eyes thinking 'not again'.

"I am making it for Taehyungie", jungkook said shortly not caring to say he already made another for everyone and busied himself with decorating the cake in a seperate counter.

"Huh! Selfish acts", somin mumbled under his breath but everyone heard it.

Jungkook sighed and shut his eyes to calm himself down as he doesn't want to ruin his happy mood.

"Somin..", yejin warned because she doesn't want another argument and the other shut her mouth instantly.

"And jungkook.. When you are done, help with the desert for everyone else as you are making one already", she instructed because somewhere deep down she didn't like jungkook's act as well. How can he bake only for his husband and not everyone. It's a joint family after all.

"I already baked a vanilla one", jungkook mumbled lowly not looking away from his cake surprising the two women.

"Oh.. Good", that's all yejin could say and somin huffed in annoyance. Jungkook rarely gives the chance to the older lady to get scolded.

Jungkook kept the simple yet pretty looking cake in the freezer to set with a soft smile thinking taehyung would be so happy.

"Um aunt suzy", jungkook called.

"Yes",

"Don't take out this strawberry cake during dinner, alright", he instructed.

"Okay", the other smiled with a nod.

"Why?", yejin frownes in confusion.

"I wanna surprise him at midnight as it's his birthday tomorrow", jungkook smiled a genuine one and the lady of the house couldn't stop the smile either. Jungkook has always proved to be the best partner for her son.

"That's sweet of you", she chuckled making the younger smile.

"And mom can you make his favourites tomorrow at breakfast, he would be happy", jungkook suggested.

"Of course", she agreed.

The kims don't celebrate birthdays after the 15th one. They just greets them and may be have a special menu for dinner. They find it childish to celebrate birthdays when they are adult.

After the dinner everyone was served with the cake that jungkook baked and surprisingly everyone praised him. Though it was short phrases but was enough to burn somin. She has been making food everyday but no one praises her but jungkook just baked a cake and even hyunbin praised him.

But the fact what she forgot was that Jungkook was new to this family and he doesn't know how to cook properly to begin with. He initiated to make something sweet for everyone and it tastes good as well thus everyone thought to compliment him. Also not everyday a cake was baked as a desert as yejin makes traditional sweet dishes more often.

Taehyung smiled at jungkook lovingly feeling proud that his love was appreciated for his hard work. Jungkook returned it as they intertwined their fingers under the table.

"Koo come to bed already", taehyung whined because he just wants to sleep in his lover's arm.

"Patience baby..", jungkook chuckled and walked out in a short silk robe from the washroom.

"Come here~", taehyung sang making grabby hands which made the younger giggle.

Jungkook disregarded his robe leaving himself just in a loose thin strap crop top and panties as he slide inside the duvet. It was really cold outside but the heater was doing it's work perfectly.

Taehyung was quick to lay his upper bare body above the younger and hummed in satisfaction. His hands flew to cup jungkook's left boob out of his habit and placed a wet kiss on the cleavage before closing his eyes with a soft smile.

Jungkook chuckled at his cuteness and his slender finger started playing with the soft raven locks and peppered few kisses on his temple.

"Rest well baby", he whispered.

"Hmm you too", taehyung mumbled already feeling sleepy.

Not long after taehyung was fast asleep and jungkook sighed scrolling through his social media to pass his time and wait for the clock to hit 12 am.

Feeling a wet sensation on his nubs, jungkook looking down to see taehyung nibbling on his clothed nipples in his sleep, he couldn't help but to chuckle in adoration. Taehyung is literally a baby.

He push his top upward to reveal his boobs and guided it to the older's mouth who hummed in satisfaction, while sucking on his favourite treat.

Jungkook bit his lips to muffle the whimpers because he didn't want to get turned on right now, as he was sensitive in there and decided to distract himself with his phone leaving the older be.

His phone vibrated at 11.55 as he struggled to get out of the older's body and placed his own pillow in the whining taehyung's arm, chuckling softly.

He wore the robe before walking out of his room. No one would be out of their room at this hour so he didn't bother to change.

A smile adored his lips when he saw the cute looking cake set properly. He took the candle and lighter before walking up to their room.

He bought some rose petals earlier, and scattered it on the small table present inside their room and place the cake in the middle. He lit the candles before walking up to a pouting taehyung with an excited smile.

"Baby", jungkook called kissing the older's cheeks and caressing his hair.

"Wake up", he whispered in his ear blowing air while giggling lowly and taehyung only groaned.

"Wakie wakie, taetae", he tickled the other's chin cutely, giggling lowly.

"Five minutes, koo", taehyung mumbled thinking it was already morning which made the younger laugh more.

"Happy birthday, my baby", jungkook mumbled and smiled when taehyung opened his eyes just enough to see the younger's pretty face few inches away from his.

"Hmh?", he frowned.

"I baked a strawberry cake for you", jungkook said softly and suddenly taehyung's sleep jumped out of the window when realization dawned upon him.

"It's my birthday?", taehyung frowned raising his body on his elbows.

"No! It's oli london's", he rolled his eyes and taehyung pouted.

"Now come on", jungkook pulled the older who let himself be dragged as both sat clinging to each other, on the rug in front of the table.

"saeng il chuk ha ham ni da

saeng il chuk ha ham ni da

sarang ha neun taetae-shi

saeng il chuk ha ham ni da", jungkook giggled at the name he used and taehyung bit his cheeks as a punishment as both Laughed.

Taehyung cut the cake before feeding it to jungkook and the other did the same not forgetting to feed taehyung few strawberries too whose happiness was touching the limitless sky.

Ever since jungkook came to his life he got the taste of actual happiness. Jungkook always made him feel so special, wanted and loved that it makes him overwhelmed to the point that he gets teary.

He always tries his best to cherish the younger as well. But no matter how much he tried it always feel less than how much jungkook does for him.

"Thank you", taehyung whispered with glossy eyes and jungkook cooed at him before cupping his cheeks and placing a tiny peck on his nose, joining their forehead, later.

"Your happiness is what matters to me", jungkook said with overwhelming emotions lacing his tender voice.

"Words can't explain how much you mean to me koo.. I don't know what our future holds but I promise to always cherish you and be by your side in every ups and downs, just like all these years, till my last breath", taehyung mumbled sincerely.

Jungkook smiled bashfully with glossy eyes,

"I love you", he whispered.

"I love you more than anything", taehyung whispered back.

Both leaned sealing their promises with a loving, soft kiss.

Jungkook hummed into the kiss when taehyung pushed his tongue in devouring his mouth passionately.

"Mhm wait", jungkook said pulling back earning a whine.

"Let me get your gift", jungkook smiled before skipping his way towards his newly renovated closet and took out a box before going towards taehyung and plopped himself on his lap.

"Open it", jungkook said with excitement making the older chuckle. Only he has the privilege to see this side of his jungkook.

"You yourself are my gift.. But thank you", taehyung kissed other's cheeks.

"Now don't be so sappy and open it", he playfully rolled his eyes and taehyung pinched his waist, as they laughed.

"Woah", taehyung said in awe when he opened the ribbon and it was spread out. It was an explosive box which jungkook himself made it.

Jungkook used so many pictures from their initial dating days till now. It was so beautiful.

"You like it?", jungkook asked biting his lips in anticipation.

"Like.. I fucking loved it, babe", taehyung said before squeezing the younger in his arms and started attacking him with his kisses making him laugh out loud.

They spent hours in each other's arms sometimes kissing, sometimes talking, sometimes teasing each other. It was safe to say taehyung enjoyed his birthday to the fullest.

The jeons invited the couple on dinner to celebrate taehyung's birthday and filled his day with more happiness than it always was.
