Jeongguk was the first to wake up next to a peacefully sleeping Taehyung; his head resting on the younger's chest as he took in even breaths. A smile spread on the assassin's face as he watched over the older's soft features. His hair was slightly disheveled, lips pulled in a small pout and face a little puffy. All Jeongguk wanted to do was run away with the beautiful boy somewhere where no one could find them to live a happy life. 

But then he remembered the reason why Taehyung was there in the first place. A frown spread on his face as he cupped the blonde's cheek, thumb caressing the puffy cheek. He leaned down to press a quick peck on the top of his head as he rolled to Taehyung's side, so he could leave the other to sleep while he went to make breakfast. 

Taehyung let out a whine, grabbing onto Jeongguk's arm and pulling him closer, making the younger chuckle at the adorable sight in front of him.

'Shh, it's okay, Tae. I'm just gonna go make us breakfast.' Jeongguk cooed as he kissed the other's forehead, watching his face scrunch up from the sudden pressure.

'Mnoo. Don't go.' He mumbled sleepily, circling his arms around the younger's neck, trying to force him down to fall over him but Jeongguk's strong arms kept him in place.

'How about you wake up and come help me make pancakes?' Jeongguk proposed, leaning down to kiss his cheeks briefly, waiting as Taehyung whined for more.

'I don't wanna get out of bed.' He pouted, 'It's so comfy and you are so warm.' He clutched to Jeongguk like a baby koala as he puckered his lips, waiting for a kiss.

'I'm not kissing you unless you wake up.' The assassin shook his head, pulling away but the older tightened his hold around his neck as Taehyung frowned, still waiting to be loved. 

Jeongguk sighed, letting out a little laugh as he leaned in to peck him swiftly before he spoke again, 'You are such a baby. Now, come on. Get up.' Jeongguk slapped his thigh gently as Taehyung let out a little moan in surprise and released the younger in favor of stretching his numb limbs. He rolled over on the bed until he reached the edge and stood up with the sheets wrapped around him, looking like a fluffy ghost as he tried to open his eyes.

Jeongguk tried to stifle a laugh because he was too funny not to at least giggle at when he'd try to walk and stumble on the corner of the sheets, almost tripping. 'You can't stay wrapped up in the sheets all day.' He followed after Taehyung to guide him by the waist toward the dresser. 

Taehyung groaned and leaned back against Jeongguk's firm chest, head resting on a shoulder and letting himself be manhandled by the gorgeous raven-haired male. 'Let's get you dressed up, okay?' Jeongguk said, turning to kiss his temple as he opened the dresser with one hand.

After Taehyung changed, with much persuasion from the younger, into a pair of gray sweatpants and a large red t-shirt, falling ever so often from his shoulder, they both went into the kitchen to start cooking. The older found it a blessing that Jeongguk felt too hot to wear a shirt and he tried really hard not to stare at the gorgeous body in front of him because he didn't want to look like a pervert but how can he not when the muscle would pop at every little move he'd make? 

Taehyung thanked any God that there was that Jeongguk stood mostly with his back to him because that way he could drool over him without embarrassing himself. In search of a pan, Jeongguk bent over to retrieve it from a bottom shelf. Taehyung's heart almost stopped as his eyes glued to the younger's ass, high in the air in all its glory. 

The thing about Taehyung was that he enjoyed being a bottom often but once in a while, if the man he's looking at had a nice behind that would match the older's standards, then he wouldn't pass the opportunity to feel the other from the inside as well. 

As the blond was busy drooling over Jeongguk's fine ass, the younger kept trying to ask an important question, still looking for the damn pan that was all the day to the back of the cabinet and as he struggled to take out the other pots that were in the way, his ass kept jingling, making it difficult for Taehyung to swallow because he had the strongest urge to smack it but he tried to refrain himself. Again, he didn't want to be a pervert.

'Taehyung!' Jeongguk called his name again, suddenly sitting up. 'I said, Jam or Finetti?' He watched amused as Taehyung gave him a lost look, licking his dry lips.

'Uhm... Finetti.' He answered softly, running a hand through his hair.

'Good. The jar should be on the top shelf. Mind getting it for me?' Jeongguk pointed to the top cabinet on his left, finally taking out the pan and putting it on the stove to be ready for when the dough was done.

'Sure.' He went past Jeongguk to get to the respective shelf, stretching an arm to find the jar. The younger came next to him, one hand searching for the sugar as the other went down to get a firm grasp of the older's left ass cheek, making Taehyung gasp. 'W-what are you doing?'

'Looking for some sugar.' Jeongguk winked, smirking as he took out the little box he kept the sugar in and slapped Taehyung's ass before he went back to the aisle where he had the bowl, eggs, and milk prepared.

'You're lame.' Taehyung laughed, shaking his head as he came back with the jar of chocolate cream and settled himself on the stool in front of Jeongguk. 

Putting his elbows on the table as he rested his chin in his palms, he watched as the younger mixed the ingredients together but the thing that caught his eye was the way his veins were popping out from the force the younger was using to keep the pace and mix the dough well.

'Tae,' The older snapped back to reality and looked into Jeongguk's eyes, 'you are drooling on my aisle.' He whispered with a knowing smirk on his face.

'Shut up.' Taehyung frowned as he dabbed at his chin, just in case.

'So,' Jeongguk said as he finished making the dough and moved next to the stove to start making the pancakes. 'did you sleep well?' He asked, his back facing the older.

'Yeah, I did.' Taehyung said with a smile on his face.

'Good. After we eat, we'll go to Yoongi's office and you'll tell him the whole story.' Jeongguk flipped the pancake, looking for a plate.

'W-what? No, I don't wanna see him. He scares me.' Taehyung mumbled, voice wavering a little.

'Don't worry. He's not a bad person. He just seems that way but trust me he is the exact opposite.' Jeongguk tried to convince him but Taehyung didn't want to talk about that part of his life with a stranger.

'Yeah but he's not you.' He said in a small voice, fidgeting. 

The younger flipped the pan to land the pancake on the plate and put it aside to continue later after he convinced the older. He circled the aisle and took a seat next to Taehyung, taking one of his hands into his own.

'Tae, you promised.' Jeongguk laced their fingers.

'I promised to tell you, not him.' The older turned to look at the raven, a smile tugging at his lips.

'Good. After we eat, we'll talk, okay?' Jeongguk sat up from his chair, moving to get back to his pancakes when Taehyung took his hand, making him turn around to face him again.

'Were you serious last night?' Taehyung asked, looking down and letting his hand fall from the younger's, feeling embarrassed for asking him such a dumb question but he needed to hear the confirmation because he couldn't fool himself into thinking he could have something with this sweet guy when the other probably was just using him. 

Jeongguk stepped closer to the older, hand raising his chin to look Taehyung in the eyes before he leaned in to press a slow and sweet kiss to answer his question. It was a kiss that made his heart beat like he'd ran a marathon and had his toes curling from the intensity.

Taehyung hooked his arms around the younger's waist, bringing him closer and resting his palms on those perky globes that were teasing him earlier. He kneaded the firm flesh between his fingers. A moan escaped Taehyung's mouth at the feeling, making Jeongguk giggle a little as he pulled away, cupping Taehyung's cheeks.

'What are you doing, Taehyung?' He asked in a teasing manner, the smile never leaving his lips.

'Uhm... I just...' He stumbled upon his words as he flushed, his cheeks turning bright pink. What was he going to say, I want to grope your ass because I find it endearing?

'Cute.' Jeongguk ruffled the older's hair before he went back to resume preparing breakfast, leaving Taehyung a flustered mess.

After the assassin was done, 10 minutes later, with the pancakes covered in Finetti and waiting to be eaten, they took seats next to each other at the aisle to eat in silence before the big talk. Which was more than perfect because it gave Taehyung time to arrange his thoughts and remember all he had to tell the younger to help. 

Jeongguk felt his nervousness as Taehyung kept dangling his leg to relieve the stress and anxiousness even though he knew that the younger was patient and wouldn't snap at him. With one simple movement of his arm, Jeongguk placed a hand on his thigh to stop it from moving in the frantic rhythm.

'Relax.' He smiled gently at the older as Taehyung stuffed his mouth with food to avoid rambling stupidly like he usually did when his nerves were on edge.

'I can't. I'm scared.' The older said once he swallowed the mouthful of pancakes.

'Why? I told you nothing will happen to you as long as I'm around.' Jeongguk said as he turned the stool Taehyung was on, making him face the younger. 'And in case you haven't caught on from earlier, I was serious last night.' He stood up from his stool and approached the blond who was currently eyeing the floor, a little shy at the other's statement. His heart calmed down a little now that he knew Jeongguk wasn't going to play with him. At least, he hoped he wouldn't.

'Okay. I'm sorry. It's just all my ex-boyfriends used me for something and I'm just kinda scared that you'll do that too. And I don't want that to happen because I really came to like you more than I should.' Taehyung confessed as he played with his fingers in a nervous tic.

'Taehyung, baby. I'm not that kind of guy. I should know better. I've been through that as well.' Jeongguk ran his fingers through the older's hair, trying to lift his head up to look at the younger. Taehyung smiled as he brought his eyes up to meet the other's. 'What?' Jeongguk asked, a smile tugging at his lips as well.

'You called me baby. No one called me that before.' His hand found Jeongguk's to lace their fingers together.

'Because they were stupid and didn't realize what a precious baby you are.' The younger leaned down to press a soft kiss on the other's forehead as Taehyung closed his eyes, content. A warm feeling rushed through his body as he wrapped his arms around the younger's waist, burying his head into his chest as a sigh escaped his lips.

'Thank you.' Taehyung swiftly kissed Jeongguk's bare chest, right above his sternum.

'You don't have to thank me for telling you the truth.' Jeongguk smiled, rubbing his back in soothing circles. He could feel the other's anxiousness and he had to do something to help him relax if he was going to talk about the rough time he's been through. 'Now let's clean the dishes and then we can talk, okay?' Taehyung nodded into his chest, still not letting go of the other.
'It's gonna be okay. Come on.' Jeongguk pulled away to peck the other's lips softly and flashed a sweet smile, earning one in return before they cleaned up after their meal.

In about half an hour, Taehyung was going to confess the story that would save millions of people from dying from an overdose they didn't even know they took and in about half an hour, Taehyung was going to come clean and reveal the part of his past that he tried to forget for so long but he hoped that maybe after he'll get it out of his system, he will feel better about it.
