“Prove it to me, baby daddy” he sniffed, and Jungkook smiled tearfully as he pulled him into a comforting hug without minding the fact that he’s half naked.

It lasted for almost five minutes, both taking time to relish in the scents of each other.

His cologne made Jimin want to hug him longer, then the warmth of his body. It was so soothing that he had to hug him tighter, hooking his face on his shoulder totally.

His peachy scent made Jungkook calm down apart from the softness of his body, and he hugged him tighter too, eventually raising his hand to his hair. He began rubbing it, making him smile.

They found so much solace and peace in each other, and when they finally broke the hug, they could visibly see the relief in each other’s eyes.

Jungkook’s tears are totally gone. He smiled widely before picking his shirt and singlet from where they fell.

“I can wear them myself” Jimin quickly said, knowing what he’s gonna do next.

“No, let me do my thing” he replied, and Jimin chuckled.

“You love that line, I was expecting you to say it”

Jungkook smiled as he wore the singlet for him, then the shirt.

He was staring into his eyes as he did his buttons, and Jimin was smiling.

“Hmm…the cigar and alcohol…” He suddenly said.

“What about them?” He blinked.

“You didn’t go back to buy another one last night, right?” He said, and Jimin shook his head.

“No. I wasn’t thinking when I went out to buy them. Seeing Namgil alive and well again really messed with my head, and I…I nearly went crazy. I’m thankful I met you last night” he said, and Jungkook smiled, doing the last button of the shirt.

“I’m declaring today a work-free day” he said.

“Why? We have a lot to do” Jimin replied.

“Making you happy comes first” he replied.

“But I’m happy” he blinked, and Jungkook couldn’t help but laugh.

“You blink like a kid, why is everything about you so babyish?”

Jimin blinked again, and he laughed again. He joined in the laughter, and Jungkook suddenly carried him away from the table, placing him down gently.

“You really don’t have to declare a work-free day” he said.

“And your tummy, we need to get it treated” he said, pulling him out of the office.

Angelina and Bishop stood from their desks when they saw them, and Ann stood slowly too, all watching surprisingly till they’re out of the office completely.

“Yes!” Angelina stuck hands with Bishop, and Ann bit her tongue.

Jungkook took Jimin to the announcement room, and he quickly blocked his way when they got in.

“You really don’t have to declare…

He suddenly leaned in, and Jimin stepped back quickly.

“Good” he smiled and went to the address system.

“Listen up, staffs!” He said, his voice echoing everywhere in the company.

“I’m declaring a work-free day today for everyone!” He announced, and a loud scream filled the company immediately.

“But tomorrow, prepare to work past the working hours, have a nice day” he finished up the announcement and faced Jimin.

“Done” he winked.

“Stubborn baby daddy” he said, and Jungkook grinned, holding his hand again.

This time, he interlocked their fingers as he took him out of the room.

Jimin looked at the interlocked hands and smiled, following his lead till they got back to the assistances office.

“You have a visitor, sir” Bishop reported.

“Business related?”

“No sir, his name is Yoongi” Bishop replied.

“Yoongi? He’s back?” Jungkook said surprisingly, and Jimin was still wondering who Yoongi is when Jungkook took him back into the office.

“Jungkook!!” Yoongi screamed, standing from his desk where he’s sitting on.

Jimin was looking so confused as he ran to Jungkook and jumped on him, making him lose his hold on Jimin.

Jimin folded his hand, turning to them slowly.

Yoongi completely wrapped his legs on Jungkook, and that made him look away.

“I’ve missed you!” Yoongi gushed, and Jungkook tried to drop him, but he tightened his legs on him.

“Get down, Yoongi. You turned 25 this year isn’t it? You should have grown out of your childish plays. Get down I’m suffocating” he said.

“No! Allow me to give you a kiss on the cheeks at least” he said.

“Yoongi!” Jungkook said a little loud, and he stopped smiling, coming down slowly from him.

“Did you just shout at me? I spent three years in the US and this is how you welcome me? Jungkook!” he stumped his shoes.

“I have somewhere to go” he said and went to his desk to take his phone.

He came back for Jimin and took his hand, interlocking them again before taking him out of the office.

Yoongi turned to look at them as they left, and Jimin looked back at him.

Their eyes met, and Yoongi rolled eyes at him before they left completely.

“I guess that’s the guy he likes, he’s not half as cute” he muttered jealously.

COMPANY PRIVATE PARK*

“It’s my first time here” Jimin said surprisingly when he got there with Jungkook, still holding hands.

“It’s specially for me and the important members of staffs and management” he replied, opening the door of his white car for him.

Jimin smiled at him before stepping in, and he joined him shortly.

“That…that guy earlier” he said, and Jungkook faced him.

“Yeah?”

“Who’s…he?” He asked slowly.

“He’s Seokjin’s junior brother, and…

“So why did he jump on you like that? It was so unnecessary and… extreme…he was too extra about it and…

Jimin stopped talking and looked at him when he heard nothing from him, and he met him staring with a knowing smile on his lips.

“Is this… jealousy?”

“Jealous? Me?” He laughed.

“Why would I? I’m not your hubby” he said awkwardly and winded down the car window to take in fresh air.

“Hmmn! Such a hot morning” he said exaggeratedly, and Jungkook smiled, opening the car safe to bring out a book which looks like a diary.

“Here” he said, and Jimin turned back to him.

“What?” He asked, taking it from him.

“It’s a list of everything you need to know about Jungmin, including his likes and dislikes. I took my time to write it all” he said, and Jimin looked at his face.

“I promised him to introduce him to his dad in one week, and you need to see how excited he is for the introduction. Please don’t say no this time…

“I’m ready” he cut him off, and Jungkook smiled.

“I’ll meet him” Jimin said, and Jungkook held his right hand to rub his knuckles gently.

He opened the book and started reading as he drove them out of the park.

“He hates cucumber?” He chuckled.

“He says he doesn’t like the shape” Jungkook replied.

“What!” He laughed out.

“Yeah, he’s an handful” he said.

“He loves sweet things” he said, opening to another page.

“Lollipop, sugar pie and honey biscuits, honey tea too and cake…he’s addicted” he replied.

“He’s so adorable” Jimin said, opening to another page.

“Yeah. Our boy is the best boy out there” he replied, and Jimin looked up at him with a bright smile.

He held him with an hand again, driving with the other hand.

ELITES ELEMENTARY SCHOOL*

It’s swimming time since they’re on free period right now, and pupils are already filing out of the locker rooms in their swimming trunks.

Jungmin closed his locker after putting on his white swimming pants, then he put on a face cap, wearing it backwards.

He picked a ball and walked out of the locker room.

“Hey Jungmin!” Lisa appeared in front of him, removing the cap from his head to wear.

“You look extra happy today” Jungmin noticed.

“You told me your other dad is gonna be introduced to you soon, I’m happy for you” she replied, and he smiled.

San walked past them and made to touch her hair like last time, but Lisa quickly bent her head, so his hand went down.

“Sorry, I hate it” she said, and Jungmin smiled.

San scoffed before walking away, and Lisa quickly faced Jungmin.

“Did you see that? I didn’t allow him!” She said…

“Jungmin!” A male voice made them turn at once only to see Yoongi walking towards them.

“Wait… isn’t that the guy who has a crush on your dad? Seokjin’s brother” Lisa said.

“I don’t like him, why is he back and why would he come see me in school” Jungmin muttered, grabbing Lisa’s hand.

They both started running away from him, and before he could get to them, they were already gone.

“Darn! Why is no one welcoming me? Really?” He breathed out.

*

HOUSE OF BARONESS*

Soora is currently seated in her private sewing room with a picture frame in hand.

It’s a picture of her and Jackson, her late husband.

She was sniffing as she stared at the frame, and she’d soon start crying.

Living as a single mother since she lost him years ago has been hard, and she misses him too much.

The door opened, and she quickly dropped the frame.

“Mr. Seokjin is here” an apprentice reported, and she left the room immediately, going out to meet him.

“Eomma!” Jin opened his arm, and they hugged, but almost Immediately, another person came in.

“Afternoon Mrs. Jeon” the cool voice said, and they broke the hug to see a fine man.

Jin’s eyes widened. It’s the same man he bumped into last night.

“Welcome as usual, Namjoon” Soora said cheerfully.

“You?” Jin smiled.

“You know each other?” Soora asked surprisingly.

“Yeah, sure” Namjoon replied.

“Ok…then talk all you want and call on me when you’re done” Soora said and went in.

“So you’re a customer here?” Jin asked.

“Yeah, Mrs. Jeon is the best fashionista in this city, for me” he replied.

“For real” Jin nodded.

“By the way I’m Hwang Namjoon” he said.

“Wait…one of the five sons of the rich Hwang family?” His eyes widened.

“Sure. I’m the second son” he replied.

“Oh my gawd” Jin gasped, and he smiled.

“You’re Kim Seokjin, right? You’re quiet popular” he said, and Jin extended an hand for a handshake which he took immediately, then he got his phone with his second hand.

“Your number, please?” He said, and Jin took the phone.

*

TWENTY MINUTES LATER, ERA STUDIOS*

Taehyung has no session to cover today, but he came only to see Jin maybe they could talk.

He went to his private dressing room unnoticed, but it’s empty.

“But he has a session in thirty minutes” he said and turned to leave, only to meet Lan behind him.

“Holy shit!” He jumped, and Lan smiled.

“Mr. Seokjin will be here soon” he said, stylishly touching his forearm.

Taehyung shifted back, and he dropped his hand.

“You should know who he really is before falling for him” Lan said seriously.

“What do you mean?”

“Why do you think he kept getting used and dumped?” He replied, and Taehyung frowned.

“I’m here!” Jin came in immediately, and his eyes brightened when he saw him.

“Taehyung!”

“Hey” he smiled, and he dropped her bag on the table before coming to hug him.

Lan left the room instantly.

“Where were you?” He asked.

“Baroness” he replied, and despite the fact that Lan’s words are haunting him, he hugged him back.

*

S•N HOLDINGS*

Namgil loosened his tie and threw it down when he got back to his office.

Another fruitless meeting just ended with the staffs, and he’s as pissed as hell right now.

The new land contract is trending in the news, but no one knows which land It’s gonna be, and none of his staffs have the idea, so he’s on the edge.

He can’t even fire staffs because he’s owing them a month salary already.

The company has been broke for a month now, and it got worse immediately Jungkook got the Intel instead of him.

He picked his lighter and lightened a cigar for himself, smoking angrily.

He must meet Jungkook tomorrow, and if he’s gonna threat him to partner with him, he’s gonna do it.

*

DELI LUNCHES*

Jungkook and Jimin spent close to an hour in the hospital taking care of the redness on his tummy and face, and they went for a long drive after which they came here to eat.

The time was already past 3pm when they arrived, and they were led to a table where they sat facing each other.

“What should we have?” He asked, and Jimin picked the menu.

“Fried rice? Meatballs and…

“Salad?” He said.

“I don’t like salad” Jimin replied.

“Why?”

“The mayonnaise” he replied.

“There are different products of mayonnaise, you’ll like the latest one ma’am” the server said.

“Then I’ll try it” he replied.

“I’ll have the same thing” Jungkook said, and the server left to get them.

“That necklace” Jimin pointed at the expensive necklace dangling on his chest.

“It’s from Exquisite, the only piece in this country” he replied, taking the shinny pendant.

“How…much?” He said.

“6M” he replied, and his eyes widened.

“What!”

“What?” He laughed.

“It’s too expensive!” Jimin gasped, and their orders arrived.

“But it’s real” he replied.

“I won’t deny that. I like the pendant” he said, and Jungkook smiled as they started eating.

They ate patiently, and for almost thirty minutes, they’re still on it.

They left for the car afterwards, and Jimin faced him.

“Where are we going again?”

“Secret” he replied, and Jimin chuckled as he drove out of the restaurant.

Ten minutes later, he drove into House of Baroness, and he blinked.

“Your mum’s store?” He blinked.

“Come” Jungkook took him out of the car, and he willingly followed.

“My gawd! Jimin!” Soora stood immediately they came in.

“Ma’am” Jimin replied, and Soora hugged him.

“Thanks for bringing him Jungkook, I have a whole lot of dresses for you and I bet you’re gonna need an extra car to pack them” she said.

“You don’t have to…

“Take him to the fitting room, the attendants will bring the dresses” Soora cut him off, and Jungkook took him away.

“Jungkook…

“Part of making Namgil regret everything is building a new you and making him feel like having you back. I want you to dress differently to work from now on. Even if you’re going out to get something not far from your house, dress hotly Jimin. Hotly” he said, holding his shoulders.

“Ok” Jimin said slowly and nodded.

Jungkook smiled lightly and took off the necklace on his neck, then he went closer and started fixing it on Jimin’s neck.

“But I…

“Let me do my thing. Consider it my first gift” he said, and Jimin started looking into his eyes as he fixed it on him.

He couldn’t deny the blush that appeared on his cheeks immediately. He went totally red, so much that he had to hide it from him.

The tension was too much, and he could feel the nervousness again.

“It looks better on you” he said after fixing it, and Jimin touched the pendant slowly.

“Now you have to choose a number from one to twenty” he said, and Jimin blinked.

“Why?”

“Just choose, please?” He said with a charming smile.

“Hmmm… twenty?” He said, still rubbing the pendant.

He got his phone immediately and did a transaction.

His phone buzzed, and he brought it out. It’s Jennie’s phone but he inserted his sim inside since his own is destroyed already.

He checked the new message, and his eyes widened like crazy when he saw a credit alert.

₩20M from him!

“Oh my gawd!” He shouted, swallowing hard in disbelief.

“Jungkook… I’m not… I… I dunno… You…

He was lost for words to say as he stared at his phone screen, and when he looked up at him, he caught him smiling.

“Jungkook” he whispered, and he smiled wider.

“You deserve more, daddy, and I’m only just starting. Just don’t get tired, we have a long way to go” he said, and Jimin climbed the chair beside them so he’s taller than him now.

He pulled him closer by fisting his shirt in the front, and his eyes came madly wide as he kissed his right and left cheek, then his nose tip.

He went down to kiss his chin, and he smiled at him before doing the last deed.

He kissed him on the lips!

Jungkook’s hands went to his hips immediately, and his eyes closed, but the kiss was short because Jimin broke it so fast, their lips making cute pop sound.

He opened his eyes slowly, and Jimin chuckled as he stared at him with wistful longing eyes, looking so whipped and gone.

He’s still holding his hips though.

“Daddy please choose another number, let me do another transaction” he begged with cute puppy eyes.
