"Kookie what do you think about this?" Taehyung asked as he showed one more of his drawing.
"It's so beautiful, you did very well. I'm so proud on you." Jungkook said, kissing Taehyung's forehead, making Taehyung to smile.
"Thank you Kookie." Taehyung said as he tiptoed and pressed his lips on Jungkook's cheek, staying there for few seconds before pulling away.
Jungkook was shocked, happy, surprised, all emotions was happening in the same time. He wanted to pull younger into his arms and shower him with kisses.
He was controling himself, he don't want to scare Taehyung, not now when Taehyung was so comfortable around him. He looked at Taehyung who started drawing on the new paper.
He walked towards him and sat down on the chair, looking at Taehyung. Taehyung looked at him as he felt stare at him.
"Kookie is it everything okay?" Taehyung asked.
"Hmm don't worry, just continue." Jungkook said slowly.
"Are you sure??" Taehyung asked one more time only to Jungkook to put his head on Taehyung's shoulder.
"Let's stay like this." Jungkook said as he closed his eyes. Taehyung just said a little ,,ok".

"What was you two doing today?" Jin asked as they all sat for the table.
"We were somewhere." Taehyung said.
"Hmm seems like secret." Jimin said.
"Because it is secret, our secret. Right Kookie?" Taehyung said as he looked at Jungkook who was sitting right next to him.
"Yeah it is baby." Jungkook said as he smiled softly while looking at Taehyung.
"Okey, okey, we will not ask nothing more." Jin said.
"Hyung we are having my birthday party day after tomorrow, right?" Taehyung asked.
"Yes, everything will be ready. You need to show around 8 PM and then we will celebrate until 00:00 and then you will be 18." Jin said.

"Tae should we go to the shoping tomorrow?" Jimin asked.
"For the party?" Taehyung asked on what Jimin just nodded.
"Who is going??" Taehyung asked.
"You, Jin hyung and me." Jimin said.
"Ohh okay." Taehyung said with little pout on his face. Other saw it and smiled softly as they knew why Taehyung is pouting.
"I see what is happening." Jimin said.
"What?" Taehyung asked confused.
"You will survive few hours without Jungkook." Jimin said with teasingly smile on his face.
"Huh?? Why are you saying that?? It's nothing like that." Taehyung said as he looked down at his lap shyly, hiding his blushed cheeks.
"Hmm whatever you say." Jimin said.
"Okey, okey it's enough now. Continue with your dinner." Namjoon said. They continued to eat, Taehyung and Jungkook stealing glances on each other with time on time.
After dinner Jimin, Yoongi and Jhope was the first one to left.
Jin and Namjoon left in their bedroom while Taehyung was sitting on the stairs in front of the house with Jungkook.
"Stars are so beautiful tonight." Taehyung said as he was looking up at the sky.
"Yeah, they are." Jungkook said.
Taehyung giggled as he looked at Jungkook only to find Jungkook looking at him. Taehyung immediately looked away, blush made his way on his cheeks. Jungkook chuckled on Taehyung's cuteness.
"Stars in your eyes are more beautiful." Jungkook said, more like whispered but Taehyung heard him.
"Really??" Taehyung asked as he turned around towards Jungkook. Their eyes met, noone saying anything.
It's like they are talking just by looking at each other. Smiles on their faces looks even more brightly under moon's light. Lips shining, asking for attention, for warmth of other one.
"Don't miss me to much tomorrow baby." Jungkook suddenly said, breaking the silence. He saw what was about to happen, he knew if he don't stop now he will kiss Taehyung and he didn't wanted that to happen, not yet.

"Yahh hyung, for how long are we gonna be here?? I can't walk anymore, I'm so tired." Taehyung whined to his hyung who rolled his eyes on him.
"We are here only for 1 hour and you are already tired." Jin said.
"It seems like forever, I want to go home. Look how many things and clothes you guys bought." Taehyung whined again.
"Just admit that you miss Jungkook and that you wants to go to him." Jimin said.
"Ughh whatever." Taehyung said.

"He will be happy with you being his mate. Don't you see how much is he more closer with you these days?? He always wants you somewhere near him." Namjoon said.
"I bet that he keep whining to Jin hyung and Jimin about how he wants to go home." Jhope said as he laughed a little, making other to laugh too.
"No way, he wouldn't do that. Right?" Jungkook asked.
"He is Taeh-..." Before than Yoongi could finish his sentences, he was cutted off with yell.
"Kookie!!!" Taehyung yelled as he runned towards alpha who had smile on his face while looking at beautiful omega running towards him.
Jungkook opened his arms for Taehyung who immediately jumped into Jungkook's arms, hugging him tightly.
"Hey baby." Jungkook said as he wrapped his arms tightly around Taehyung's waist, kissing his cheek softly, making Taehyung to giggle softly.
"Well he didn't lie tho." Jin said.
"What that?" Namjoon asked.
"Taehyung kept whining to us about how much he wants to go home because he miss Jungkook." Jimin said.
"I told you that he will do it." Jhope said. Jungkook smiled as he heard what they said.
Other was so busy talking with each other that they didn't saw Jungkook walking away from them with Taehyung in his arms.
"Are you tired?" Jungkook asked Taehyung softly.
"A little bit but I'm fine." Taehyung said as he was caressing Jungkook's hair.
"Let's sit here." Jungkook said then put Taehyung down. Jungkook sat down on the ground, his back resting on the tree.
Taehyung didn't wasted any minute and sat down on Jungkook's lap, straddling him on each side of his hips, placing his head on Jungkook's shoulder while his hands are on Jungkook's chest.
Jungkook softly smiled as he wrapped his arms around omega's body, holding him close to his chest.
"Rest well baby." Jungkook whispered as he pecked Taehyung's forehead. Soon Jungkook heard soft snores from Taehyung making him smile.

The Oresteia (Modernized)
All three of the great Greek Tragedians have written plays about the bloody chain of murder and revenge within the royal family of Argos. Yet theirs is in fact not a story of tragedy, but rather one of redemption. As they move from darkness to light, from rage to self-governance, from primitive ritual to civilized institution, their spirit of struggle and regeneration becomes an everlasting song of celebration to be heard throughout the ages. Forming a discourse set against the emergence of Athenian democracy out of a period of chaos and destruction, the Orestian plays are compelling stories of the tensions between our obligations to our families and the laws that bind us together as a society. In the beginning, we witness how a king’s decision to sacrifice his daughter and turn the tide of war inflicts lasting damage on his family, culminating in a terrible act of retribution. In the aftermath of regicide, we behold how a son must set out to avenge his father’s death by committing a most egregious sin. In the end, the sinner is tormented by supernatural powers that can never be appeased, but ultimately finds redemption and ends the curse on his house once and for all. Woven through all of this is the story of a friendship so close that it elevates itself to brotherhood - Where the blood of the covenant is shown to be indeed thicker than the water of the womb. In this very brief twelve-chapter modern rendition of the Orestian plays, I have chosen to place my focus mainly on the lives of the characters Orestes and his best friend Pylades. The chapters, each around 2000-2500 words, are split up evenly between them in first-person narrative. I hope that you will come to enjoy reading this heartwarming story, but more importantly, that you see how the conflicts portrayed in the story, whether human or institutional, are still much very relevant to our societies today. Note on Sources: The details of this story is very loosely based on The Oresteia by Aeschylus. And I mean very loosely. Other sources that I referenced for detail and inspiration are Mythology by Edith Hamilton, Electra by Sophocles, and Iphigenia in Tauris by Euripides. You may also find that I have quoted some of these works, and others (such as Shelley's Ozymondaeus), without citations (average of 1-2 such quotes per chapter). I did this because I do not have the ability to describe certain scenes nearly as well as some of those writers. If you read a particularly beautiful piece of prose here, chances are it's probably stolen lol. Also, I wrote this during the summer between my high school senior year and my college freshmen year. It was the summer of 2020, and being quarantined apparently gets my creative side out lol.
