Christmas Eve:
"Christmas Eve Taehyung," Jungkook says, with a warm smile on his lips as he brings two hot, steaming mugs of hot chocolate into the TV room of Taehyung's home. Taehyung's brown eyes snap up to meet Jungkook's, and a lonely frown is replaced with the warmest smile ever to exist.

"Hey baby, let me help you with that," Taehyung says, standing up from the sofa, to take the two cups, placing them down on the wooden coffee table, before looking at Jungkook with the gooiest eyes. He takes Jungkook's hands in his, "thank you baby, for spending this day with me instead of your family."

Jungkook leans against Taehyung's chest, hearing his heartbeat against his chest. The sound a slow, and tranquil thud. Jungkook finds comfort in the sound of Taehyung's heart. I love you... The three words from the night before remain in Jungkook's cluttered mind, but he can't bring himself to open up and ask Taehyung about them.

His mind was in purgatory, he was close enough to get into heaven, but something devious was holding him back. And that something made Jungkook want to reside in that small opening forever, fearing that it could become too real.

"It's okay Tae, my sister is always at work and I don't have much of a family anyway," he mumbles into Taehyung's warm chest, the two of them subtly rocking together under the orange glow of the candlelight.

Taehyung lifts Jungkook's face up with his fingers, looking deep into Jungkook's eyes, "Jungkook," he whispers slowly, breath fanning over Jungkook's peachy lips, "I am your family, don't ever forget that," he says leaning down. Jungkook grins, before turning his face to the side, Taehyung's lips meeting Jungkook's soft cheeks. He groans against Jungkook's cheeks, "what are you thinking about now?" He asks.

Cheekily, Jungkook says, "just the fact that I don't condone incest." Taehyung groans once more at Jungkook's words, "you know what I meant baby, now let's watch a movie. The hot chocolate is getting cold."

Taehyung untangles himself from Jungkook, holding his hand, guiding the boy to the sofa in front of a big television screen. He presses play, and a loud,

"Keviiiiiiiiiiiin,"

rings through the silent room. Taehyung looks at Jungkook who's awkwardly sitting off to the side, clearing his throat, he catches the attention of Jungkook. He meets Jungkook's twinkling doe eyes, heart skipping a beat as he drains in the sight of Jungkook, messy blonde hair, naturally flushed cheeks wrapped up call cozy in a blanket.

"Come here doll, sit with me," Taehyung whispers. Jungkook grins and nods, snuggling into Taehyung's arms, feeling as comfortable as ever. Taehyung plays with Jungkook's fingers, before finally intertwining their fingers before focusing on the movie playing on the screen.

They laugh at the funny scenes, coo at the cute scenes and bawl at the sad moments, loving the fact that they simply had each other for such a day. A day where one brings all.

By far, Taehyung's best Christmas Eve.

Christmas Day:
"Jesus christ Jimin, you didn't have to do so much," Taehyung mumbles, looking down at the food that Jungkook and Jin were bringing to the table one by one.

Jimin smiles sheepishly, "it wasn't just me, it was Jungkook and Jin too. Yoongi and Hoseok just sat down playing videogames," he gives them a pointed look, to which they avoid his stern eyes. Rolling his eyes he says, "plus, we should have a proper get together. Almost like a little family."

Jungkook glances at Taehyung when he hears Jimin's words, before quickly looking back at the food on the table, his heart thudding against his chest.

Namjoon walks into the dining room, placing down a few cups and drinks before walking next to Jin, wrapping his arm around Jin's curved waist. He presses a soft kiss on Jin's neck. Clearing his throat at everyone's shocked eyes he says, "Jin and I sort of have an announcement."

Jungkook smiles, bunny teeth on show as he can already guess, much like the others, what the announcement was.

Jin gleams happily, "Namjoon and I, we've decided to get back together. And it's all because of this drama club." Jimin coos, "aw! How cute? Because of our group of seven? Our friendship?" He asks, motioning everyone to take their seats around the table.

"Yeah, it showed us that we shouldn't be afraid of loving anyone, being with the people we truly care about showed us that...our love for each other mattered more than anything, and now, i couldn't be happier with my life," he says winking at Jin.

Jin blushes, "let's eat guys," he says, quickly handing out spoons and forks. The seven of them immediately erupt in a charter as the food is handed out and so on. But Jungkook can't bring himself to eat. He looks around the table, smiling softly at everyone's faces, loving how his mind just recognized them.

A couple of months ago, they were all sitting in one room and Jungkook didn't even know their names, or their quirky characteristics and now, he just couldn't forget them.

"Why aren't you eating?" Taehyung whispers, large hand on Jungkook's thigh, fingers trailing up them slightly. Jungkook chokes on a gasp, before calming himself down, "I will eat Taehyung, don't worry about me, how's your food?"

Taehyung leans in further, breath fanning over Jungkook's ear, "good, but I'd rather be eating something else right now," he rasps, causing Jungkook's stomach to flip. Jungkook clears his throat, "excuse me, I need to use the loo," he says, getting up. The rest don't even realise, but after Jungkook, Taehyung also stands up, following after him.

So much for a Christmas dinner.

Jungkook giggles, latching onto Taehyung before they can even find a room. Taehyung kisses Jungkook with a rushed, heated passion, smiling into the kiss a little bit as he pushes Jungkook into a random room, the two stumble in with giggles, falling to the bed almost immediately.

Taehyung straddles Jungkook, hands on either side of the giggly bunny, gazing down at the boy with heart eyes. With his finger, he traces the shape of Jungkook's lips, before pressing a kiss on the mole just underneath Jungkook's pouty, pink lips. Taehyung didn't know that something as beautiful as Jungkook could ever exist in such a world like this, and he just so happened to experience Jungkook's warmth and smiles on a daily.

Something he knew, that others were so, so envious. He had Jungkook, others didn't. He was already winning at life, if you must ask me.

Jungkook laughs, cute teeth on show, smile large and wide, he snakes his hands around Taehyung's neck, bringing the mint haired male closer, lips ghosting against each other like a silent whisper, "you know, you're mint and I'm vanilla," Jungkook whispers, before looking up at Taehyung's overgrown mint hair. Jungkook tilts his head, "with a little bit of chocolate chips at the top," he adds with a frown.

Taehyung snickers, "that was so cringe. But you're adorable, so I'll allow it," he whispers, eyes trailing down to Jungkook's pouted lips, he leans down, pressing his lips tightly against Jungkook's, loving the taste of his cherry chapstick. Jungkook sighs into the kiss, legs wrapping around Taehyung's strong waist, exactly where they belonged.

After a while, Jungkook gently pushes on Taehyung's chest, trying to catch some air, before snuggling into the older's neck, giving him soft butterfly kisses on his neck, his warm breath tickling Taehyung's tan skin.

"This is where it all started," Taehyung mumbles, moving away from Jungkook to lay next to him. Jungkook smiles, looking up at the ceiling, "Jimin's party?" He asks for confirmation. Taehyung nods with a sigh, "I really wasn't expecting you to straddle me and near goddamn kiss me while you were at it," Taehyung chuckles softly, turning to the side to look at Jungkook.

Jungkook's eyes gleam at the memory as he faces Taehyung, he scoots the tiniest bit closer to the boy, "yeah... I don't know what went through my mind. It think it was your attractiveness penetrating my hormones," Jungkook teases, flicking Taehyung's nose with a smile.

Taehyung flinches back a little before adding, "now it's just my cock penetrating you." Jungkook's smile drops for a quick moment for him to say, "haha, very funny. I'm dying of laughter right now," he says bluntly. Taehyung grins, kissing Jungkook's nose, before looking at him deeply.

Jungkook scoots even closer to Taehyung, "I..." He trails off, looking straight back at Taehyung. His heartbeat increases steadily, the more he looked at Taehyung's godly features, the more his chest restricted and his heart thudded. Taehyung nods in question, and Jungkook can only shake his head, before he shuffles even more closer than before. "Nothing, I'm just really grateful to have met you Taehyung," Jungkook says softly.

Taehyung doesn't reply, and instead kisses Jungkook softly, pouring all of his emotions into the kiss, to show the boy that he felt exactly the same.

Jungkook smiles into the kiss, heart fluttering, he pulls away, looking up at Taehyung from under his lashes. Taehyung's fingers skim Jungkook's neck, feeling the fading hickeys from two nights okay. Jungkook gasps a little, loving the way Taehyung handled Jungkook's body, like he was a piece of freshly made glass.

The two worked well together. They just fit. Like two puzzle pieces. And it just felt right. So immensely perfect. The warmth of the house mixing with their own warmth, their emotions, their own happiness. The happiness that they had created so lovingly for each other.

Jungkook smiles, eyes fluttering shut, basking in the warmth and comfort that they had created for each other. The rest of the boys would so be questioning where they were and what they were doing but they could care less. They just loved being with each other every minute of the damn day.

Taehyung wraps his arms around Jungkook, throwing his leg over Jungkook, grabbing the blanket and covering the both of them. It's clear that they would just be sleeping. And Jungkook's heart warmed at the act of Taehyung doing so, he was respectful and knew how to read Jungkook.

Jungkook's body relaxes into Taehyung's arms, his breathing relaxing to a soft snore as his mind shuts down. The only thing registering in his mind, the sound of Taehyung's calm, steady heartbeat. He falls asleep, in the comfort of Taehyung's arms that felt more like home than his own house did.

Home.

It was a funny thing. And Jungkook often realised that the longer you spent caring for someone, the more homely it felt just simply being in the same presence as them. Home felt like Taehyung. His cool, calm “straight” exterior. No, it felt like his goofy, loving, fun interior.

I love you, Jungkook couldn't bring himself to smash the glass that was blinding him from Taehyung. No, he just couldn't. But not everything lasts forever, and it was only a matter of time before someone else came crashing into the glass that Jungkook was hiding behind.

I love you.
