Lemon-Grass Tea


(AN: Not proofread).

Hazy sunshine bathed Jimin in its golden rays and the angel stretched out with a deep inhale and exhale. He could just feel it in the air that today would be great! It obviously didn't have anything to do with last night. He just felt happy. 

"Good morning my Prince" he heard Jungkook's voice so he glanced towards the source and saw said man leaning against the door frame, hands crossed over his chest. From the looks of it, his husband had an early morning as he was in his full fledged uniform. 

"Good morning Commander" Jimin replied with a teasing tone, turning his burrito-style wrapped self to face towards Jungkook. 

"Now would you mind getting out of bed soon? Preferably today" Jungkook neared their bed and Jimin stretched once again.

"No" he answered with a genuine laugh, which in turn made Jungkook smile at him in a way that makes him feel an entire zoo packed into his stomach doing Bhangra. 

"Too bad you will have to get ready and come down quickly" Jungkook's voice softened as he sat next to Jimin on the bed. 

"Why? What happened?" Jimin frowned at him. 

Looking at the misplaced frown on his flawless husband's face, Jungkook leaned down and pecked his lips. 

"It's a surprise" he whispered against his lips and left giving him a mischievous smile. 

"Fine then" Jimin cheered and got out of bed to ready himself for this particular surprise. 

Whilst getting dressed, Jimin groaned at the two dark hickies contrasting against his alabaster skin. 'He just had to, didn't he?' he sighed to himself. He would have to hide these now. 

Or shouldn't he? 

With contemplation, Jimin decided against it. It shouldn't come as a surprise that the married couple had sex. In fact, he should wear it with pride. Smiling at his reflection, he twisted his neck to look at them when he was finally dressed fully. 

"Let's get this surprise!" he cheered to himself. 

As he reached downstairs, he saw the front hall to be void of Jungkook's presence, or his surprise. 

"Jungkook?" He called out. 

No answer. 

Frowning, Jimin's feet naturally took him towards the dining hall as per routine. As he neared, he could feel the buzz of various noises. 

Stepping into the entrance, his jaw dropped. 

"Happy Birthday Taemin!" everyone chorused. 

Jimin found himself to be struck motionless, looking towards his 'family.' Strangest part was that Taemin was actually here too. Why? He had no idea. 

Suddenly, he could see Taehyung walking towards him and felt the princes' embrace around him. 

"Congratulations on losing your virginity" Taehyung whispered in his ear as he hugged him warmly. 

"What?!" Jimin moved back to look at him in shock. 

"Your hickies are so prominent," Taehyung hugged him back to keep the façade of brothers meeting, "must have been last night huh?" he continued with a wink and Jimin looked down with embarrassment. 

"Yes" he whispered his answer. 

"Tell me more later on" he said and guided Jimin towards the rest of the family. 

Even they noticed the hickies. Especially, Namjoon, who took the most offense and glanced towards Jungkook incredulously, who grinned at him in pride. Seokjin on the other hand was proud of Jimin for getting some. 

During breakfast, Jimin realised that they introduced Taemin as one of his cousins who is visiting. Although, the real Taemin's presence did put him on edge, he tried his best to remain poised. 

"What's wrong Doll? Didn't like my surprise?" Jungkook placed his hand on Jimin's thigh to get his attention.

"I did, I'm just stunned" Jimin smiled at him. 

"That's what surprises are meant for" Jungkook grinned. 

"Thank you" Jimin gave him an eye-smile. He knew that his husband just wanted him to feel complete by having his family around him on this occasion. He didn't know that having his fake family would have him nervous. 

But what poor Jimin didn't know was that Jungkook actually brought them around to get him nervous. He wanted him to squirm in nervousness, guilt and shame. He was waiting for someone to fuck up, to expose themselves. Then, he won't have to get his hands dirty with spilling all the shit he had on them. 

Having been done with the gut-wrenching breakfast, everyone scattered around the estate. The Kim couple retired to their guest bedroom and the siblings, along with Jimin had decided to go visit the village, Jimin taking up the tour guide role. Meanwhile, Jungkook had to go 'work.' 

Jimin actually didn't mind the absence since he actually missed the Kim siblings. Especially Taemin, as since this whole façade started, he's barely caught a glimpse of his ex-crush. 

Mid-way on their tour, they 'accidentally' ran into the second in command, who then whisked Taehyung away, leaving Jimin and Taemin to mingle around the village. Both of them roamed around and Jimin showed him almost everything that is scenic and also gave him the information that he learned while staying here. Inadvertently, Jimin felt like a local. 

"So, what is he like?" Taemin asked Jimin after he took a sip of the lemon-grass tea that they had ordered at the famous tea shop on the corner of the square. 

"Who?" Jimin blinked. 

"Your husband" the younger Prince whispered conspiratorially. 

"Aah" Jimin giggled with embarrassment, "he is... not as bad as everyone makes him out to be" he finished with a lip bite. 

"I don't think I would have survived in your place," Taemin's eyes reflected sincerity, "thank you for doing this" he looked down once he could no longer hold the intense gaze. 

Funnily enough, he too had a crush on Jimin, but never found the courage to express himself. 

"You don't have to thank me, it is my duty to protect you both" Jimin smiled and looked down with a blush. He actually meant what he said, he'd do this again if it meant keeping both the princes safe from harm's way. 

Slowly, both of them managed to get over the awkward shyness and continued chatting about things back home and how they miss each other's presence.  

Evening: 

Both the Jeon and Kim family had an extravagant dinner party to celebrate Jimin's 'birthday.' Throughout the dinner, Jungkook had his eyes peering at everyone's actions, nitpicking at their words and expressions. He rolled his eyes when he noticed Yoongi blatantly flirting with Taehyung across the table. He just couldn't understand why they had to be so lovey dovey. Internally, he was just jealous of them for having an actual loving relationship. 

So much for having a fake ass husband. 

Soon enough, Namjoon declared their departure, which was protested by Jimin and Yoongi. Sadly, the King was itching to get out of enemy territory as soon as humanly possible. 

Once the Kim family left, Jimin went up to their bedroom with Jungkook, pout on his beautiful lips. 

"Miss them already?" Jungkook questioned as he sat on their bed, facing Jimin. 

"Hm" Jimin answered as he removed his coat. Setting it aside, Jimin neared Jungkook and smiled. He felt stupid for not acknowledging it before. Slowly, he sat on Jungkook's lap, straddling his legs on either side before wrapping it around his waist. Jungkook played along and held Jimin's waist for support whilst giving him a questioning look. 

"Thank you for inviting them. I haven't felt this calm and relaxed in a long time. I really appreciate it" Jimin thanked him sincerely as he wrapped his hand around Jungkook's neck. 

"Mhm, made you real happy, didn't I?" Jungkook grinned. 

"Yes" Jimin whispered before he crashed his lips against Jungkook's. 

The commander kissed him back with passion, at least that's what Jimin thought. It was actually anger. Jungkook couldn't believe it. 

He pulled back and glanced over his husband's flushed face. He didn't want to think how he could fake it all so realistically. It made him feel sick. 

"How was the tea?" Jungkook asked with a clenched jaw. 

"Tea?" Jimin frowned, "they didn't serve tea at dinner" he explained, thinking Jungkook was asking about the dinner party. 

"The lemon-grass tea you had at the corner café" Jungkook said with the menacing smile still in place.
