Taehyung released a heavy sigh sinking deeper into the tub. Nothing felt better than this. After all those quick showers he'd been forced to take, this felt like heaven. He couldn't believe Saturday had finally rolled in!

After days and days of hard toil and labour, he'd finally be getting his much deserved day of rest. The boy drowned himself in his thoughts, trying to imagine every possible scenario that could make this day all the more better.

Millions of thoughts flashed through his mind but none seeming to be just right. Taking in the sweet sweet scent of his bubble bath the male sighed yet again. He hadn't realised until then how stiff his entire body had become.

"Curse Jungkook and his chores."

Taehyung had basically become the male's personal maid, being made to clean the house every single day. Of course that didn't even compare to all the cooking and laundry Jungkook had to deal with... But still! He wasn't born for such henious labour.

All of a sudden, the male's chest began to feel heavy. He couldn't breathe no matter how much he tried, as though he were drowning in the tiny little bath tub. He gasped for air, pushing himself out of the tub and standing upright to allow more passage of air. Finally being able to catch his breathe the male fell into a coughing fit.

What the hell was that just now!?

Taehyung tried to think about the cause of it, his thoughts even going as far as the night he fell at the bar. But that wasn't all that bad. Finally concluding that he'd probably nodded off and gone underwater, the male came to the decision of ending his bath. It'd almost been an hour anyway. Bout time he came out.

Wrapping a towel round his waist the male exited the bathroom in search for his clothes. He stopped in his tracks though, as soon as he left the bathroom. The scent of cinnamon wafted around the room, dragging him away from his very, very important task at hand (getting dressed).

The male led himself to where the scent had been emanating from, being led into the kitchen.

"Oh my sweet Kookie! You shouldn't have!" Taehyung exclaimed as his eyes landed on the sweet treat before his eyes.

Rushing towards it, he quickly grabbed a piece and stuffed it into his mouth.

Oh god. Taehyung felt like melting into a puddle of gloop.

"Best. Motherfucking. Cinnamon. Rolls. In. The. Fucking. World."

And just like that the male continued to stuff his mouth, every single bite enthralling his very being. He couldn't stop himself from going in for just. One. More.

"Hey. Slept well?" Came a voice out of the blue, making Taehyung yelp.

"J-Junfkoof!" The male exclaimed, mouth stuffed.

"What the f- two weeks and I figured you'd know how to pronounce it right." Jungkook said, shaking his head disapprovingly. "Shoulda known better."

Taehyung swallowed whatever was in his mouth before speaking again to save himself the embarrassment. Before a single word could leave his lips though, he was brought to a sudden realisation. A sudden, panic-worthy, very, very embarrassing realisation.

"Aahh!" Screaming the male slapped the other across the face.

"What the fuck!? What are y-"

"Pervert!"

Wait what? Jungkook was confused. No, he was very confused. No, no, scratch that. He was utterly and totally confused. Had he done something wrong? All he wanted was a glass of water. What was the male even-

And then it hit him.

"Seriously?" The male said, death-panning. "You honestly think I'd be the least bit interested in that?" He said, using his hands to gesture the whole of Taehyung.

"Jungkook." Taehyung said giving him an annoyingly knowing look. "I have hundreds of ladies who'd say otherwise."

"Then I pity them." He says, filling up his glass with water. "They must've never had the privilege of seeing a real man before."

"You take that back!" Taehyung said in rage, earning a simple eye-roll from the other.

"This body" he said, gesturing himself "Defines the word..."

Pausing extra long for the dramatic effect and flashing Jungkook a completely puke-worthy pose - hips jutted out, eyes closed and highly exaggerated hair flip - the male winks as he says the word.

"Sexy."

Jungkook spits out the sip of water he'd just taken, staring at the male in shock.

"Fuck."

"Right? You just couldn't resist my-"

"Did you really fucking eat all the cinnamon rolls?" He said, pointing at the now empty plate.

Oh. No. Taehyung was in big trouble now. He didn't realize he'd eaten everything. No! This was really bad. Knowing Jungkook's temper, he was going to have to go without food for the next few days. Ugh! Why had he been so stupid! He got so caught up in eating that he didn't even spare a thought for Jungkook and now he was going to suffer the co-

"I wanted at least a bite of it." The male said, shoulders sulking as he placed the now empty glass in the sink.

No. This made Taehyung feel worse. Quiet, sulking Jungkook was scarier than loud, cussing Jungkook. He now knew that he'd seriously fucked up.

"I-I'm sorry." Taehyung began. "I'm so so sorry. I don't know but I couldn't stop myself. They were just so good I-"

"You liked them?" The male asked.

"Of course! Why wouldn't I? They were absolutely fantastic!"

"That's good then." He said, flashing the other a smile.

"Huh!?"

Oh for the love of- what!? What was wrong with him today? Why wasn't he scolding him!? Poor Taehyung was so so confused.

"What 'huh'!?"

"Huh as in huh!!!"

"What the fuck! Huh as in huh, what!?"

"Huh as in why the fuck are you so calm about me eating all those rolls!"

"Oh that." Jungkook said in the most calm manner as though it were completely normal for him to do so. "Th-They were a gift from Jiminie."

"Who?"

"Jiminie. That Baker friend of mine."

Wow. Taehyung could not believe the nerve of this guy. Did he really think he could bring up some random guy's name and expect him to go along with it as though he knew the dude?

"And that would be?"

"Joon didn't tell you?"

"Tell me what?"

"Nothing." He said, brushing off the topic as he exited the kitchen. "He made it to welcome you. Went myself to pick it up while you were in the shower."

"You what!?"

'Oh great. Now what?' Jungkook thought to himself, turning to face the other.

"What?"

"You're telling me." Taehyung began, left hand holding up his towel. "That you left me alone! Unguarded! Unprotected! Vulnerable! While I was having a shower?"

"Not in the least." The other said, not sure why that was a matter of concern. "I locked the front door."

"You locked the front door!?"

Today was just not his day. It'd all started happy and well and relaxing. And then Jeon Jungkook just had to exist.

"What if I wanted to go out!? You haven't even given me the spare key yet!"

"I still can't trust my house with you." Jungkook said, leaving the kitchen once and for all. "Have fun for the rest of the day and don't disturb me, Kay?"

With that the male disappeared.

-

Bored. Kim Taehyung was officially bored. It'd been three hours since the last time he'd seen Jungkook and he was bored. Lack of human interaction was making his brain rot.

Where had the male wandered off to anyway?

He was always doing things without the other. Earlier that morning too! He'd left him alone at home and gone elsewhere. Taehyung needed something to do. And fast. Else his mind would morph into a mold of nothingness.

Looking around the place his eyes landed on an empty plate where there once lay the most delicious cinnamon rolls he'd ever eaten in his life.

"Maybe... Maybe I could go there!"

And so with full determination, young Taehyung set out on his very first quest. A quest to find the Bakery of Paradise. Little was known of the dangers that awaited our young hero. The obstacles and bumps he'd have to face before reaching his end goal.

But filled with hopes and dreams of one day reaching his Paradise, the male pushed aside all negative thoughts and focused on the journey ahead. Halfway through his journey into the realm of the 'Outside', our young hero realised a very very important thing.

"I forgot to lock the door."

That's it folks! Until the next episode of 'The Misadventures of Young TaeTae'. Stay tuned for more.

The ending was kinda weird. I know. Either way, I hope you like it.
