quote: "you won't know which stone it was until you turn all and check for yourself."

As Taehyung and Jeungguk continued to walk through the streets, Jeungguk could sense Taehyung being a little blue. He held the other's hand as he pulled him closer. Placing a light kiss on the other's neck, he asks the other what was wrong.

"I think Yoonie hyung wants me to stay away from him. But it is no big deal. I mean, after all I am the reason of why his life turned upside down overnight. I understand where he is coming from I guess." And with these words, Taehyung shrugs his shoulder off.

And to Jeungguk's amazement, instead of staying gloomy, Taehyung squeals in joy at the sight ahead of him. When Jeungguk traces the other's gaze, his own lands on a dark aura tattoo parlour. He looks back at Taehyung to see a glint in the other's eyes.

was this the same man who was sulking a few minutes ago. Jeungguk wondered to himself as he shook his head lightly. "Please, lets get a tattoo together!" the other squeals out as he begins walking steadily towards the shop. But Jeungguk holds him back.

"No." and that saddens Taehyung. All he wanted was a tattoo. Not a dead body. surely that was achievable is what he had thought. Maybe he had to put in a little effort into convincing the other. he thought to himself as he pulled out his puppy eyes and looked at Jeungguk. Silently pleading the other to agree.

The raven head sighs at the other's antics. When has he ever been able to refuse his husband's request? Never. Then why had he even tried to do it right now? he cursed himself in his head for being so whipped for his own husband. And then nodded his head in agreement.

Then with lightening speed the other had pulled him inside. While his husband was going through designs for the two, Jeungguk couldn't help but wonder back to his tiger's sad face a little while ago. He wanted to help the two as he was sure that that was not the case. And so he held the other by his shoulder and forced him to look into the other's eyes.

"We will get a tattoo on one condition." The other nodded his head. Too excited to see what he was jumping himself into. The only thing running through his mind was tattoos and the design he was going to get. He was definitely not stopping with one.

"You will talk it out to Yunki hyung later." And as soon as the words left Jeungguk's mouth, the blonde hair froze again. At the mention of his own brother. The brother he had missed dearly. he looked at his husband who was eyeing him intently. It had immense hope in them.

Hope that he didn't want to break. And so he nodded in agreement. He would definitely talk to his hyung later. If there was anything to talk about that is. He wonders silently as he watches his husband smile in excitement. Now being fully involved with the idea of tattoos as well.

They looked through various designs but nothing suited their taste until the very end. But that's when Taehyung's mind sparked with an idea. He looked at Jeungguk mischeviously and that was when the mafioso knew he had something coming for him.

"I have a design in mind. But you should promise me that you wont look at it until it is done." Jeungguk eyed the other suspiciously. For once not trusting the other's words. But at the end he couldn't help but nod. Secretly wanting to know what the other had planned for him as well.

He was dragged into another room and told to remove his shirt. Apparently the tattoo was going to be on his left upper back. He tensed momentarily when the needle touched his skin. That's when he heard his husband's laughter. The said male came closer to him. So close that he could feel the latter's breath down his neck.

His thoughts about a steamy night with the male before the date, not helping his case at all. He shuddered lightly at the feeling and stopped himself from moaning out. The raven head had to force the images out of his mind. The one that have been constantly invading his mind since he set his eyes on the man clad in his clothes.

"Never knew the one who killed without a second thought would shrink under a needle." Taehyung snickered as he placed a wet kiss on the other's neck and went back to his seat. Jeungguk groaned at the feeling and dropped his head a little further down at having been teased.

Taehyung, who was definite on the other's thoughts continued to play with fire. Not knowing that there was a lot more waiting for him. Another twenty minutes passed and Jeungugk's tattoo was done and sealed. Some instructions on the after care was given and it was now Taehyung's turn.

The raven headed waited to see the other's reaction. He was now sure that the other had teased him on purpose and was going to return the favour. He smirked at his own idea as he plopped on the couch that Taehyung previously sat on.

Patiently waiting for Taehyung to screaming or flinching in pain. but Taehyung hadnt given any reaction as such. He had oh-so peacefully sat and gotten his tattoo done without as much as a flinch. In fact, he seemed so comfortable with the needle that it began to concern Jeungguk.

The young mafioso was drowning in his own thoughts when someone clearing their throat brought him out of it. he looked up to see Taehyung all ready to go back. His hand outstretched for the other to take and lead them back to their room.

The tattoo hurt for Jeungguk. It was his first time after all. There was a burning sensation to it and he knew he couldn't put his erotic thoughts to action that night. This caused him to sulk and look over to his husband who seemed to be holding up just fine. No reaction. Just as before.

They got to their room as Taehyung repeated the instructions for after care to Jeungguk. It had to remain closed for at least another three hours. No sunlight and definitely no water on it during this time. no water for the next three days as well. An ointment was also given to be applied from the next day. These were Taehyung's words to Jeungguk before he went to freshen up himself.

Once the elder male had come out, he was forced to go and talk to his hyung. He had made a deal after all. And he shouldn't be backing down from it. he was definitely nervous to know his hyung's thoughts but he couldn't come back without answers.

And so Taehyung nervously knocked on the latter's door as he waited for the other to come and fetch the door. It had been quite a few minutes of waiting but there was no reply. Taehyung was just going to quit his attempt and walk back when he heard another voice from the corridor.

"Wait up Taetae." It was Yoongi. It had to be. No one else called him as such. Not until now. not ever. The name was reserved for him anyway.

"Come in. have you been waiting long?" the other asked as he opened the door and led the other inside. Taehyung shook his head and muttered, "No I just came about." As he closed the door behind him. The night was going to be long indeed.

-

It had been four hours since Taehyung went and Jeungguk was beginning to be worried now. he didn't want to know what they talked about. He just wanted his husband back in his arms. Safe and sound. His job adding more tension to him than it should.

But just then the door flung open and a body collided with his own. It was Taehyung. The one he had been thinking off. Judging by the other's glee, he figured out that the two were on good terms now after the talk. He smiled at having the sense of achievement.

He may not have any relation with his family anymore but that doesn't mean he won't let Taehyung have either. That was more of a reason why he wanted to mend their relation. And the assurity that Yunki was indeed only being playful then.

But he was soon pulled out of his thoughts when the other's hand accidently brushed by his tattoo and a groan slipped his lips. The other panicked and got off. Asking what happened and trying to get an assurance that everything was fine.

Jeungguk whined at the sudden loss of touch as he outstretched his arms back. But this further increased the pain and he doubled up falling on the bed, he was already sitting at. Seeing the other's state, Taehyung rushed about to get rid of the other's shirt which kept brushing past the tattoo.

But before he could rip it away, Jeungguk stopped him by gripping his hand. "Gukkie leave. The shirt is hurting you!" he said as he tried to free his hand off the grip. Which he wasn't successful at and so he glared at the raven head instead.

"Close the door first! I don't want someone to walk in while I am half naked." Jeungguk groaned in response. And without a second thought, Taehyung rushed to do so. When he came back, he found a shirtless Jeungguk lying on his stomach.

The position was quite intriguing to Taehyung. A thousand thoughts running through his mind. None holy. But he had to shake them off as he sat by his husband and a ran his hand through the other's hair. He couldn't peel the feeling of guilt off him. The other was going through this pain only because he insisted they get a tattoo.

"I am so sorry jeungguk. If I knew it was going to hurt so much, I would have never insisted we get this." Taehyung said honestly as he watched the other squirm in pain. but all movements stopped when the other heard his words. He quickly sat up as he pulled the other onto his lap.

"No baby. Don't say that! I am happy to get this with you. The pain would go away in time. wouldn't it?" Jeungguk said in an attempt to comfort the other. he rubbed the other's back as the elder did the same to him. Drawing soothing circles around the tattoo to ease the pain. and to jeungguk's surprise that action did help with the pain.

He pulled back from the hug as he looked the other in his eyes. Anticipating a question from the other, the elder also remained while locking their eyes. "Why does it not pain for you? I don't mean to put you in pain. but d-did you do something to yourself before to n-not feel the pain?" Jeungguk asked. As quiet as possible.

He didn't want to consider this option at all. Taehyung didn't look like the kind to do it. he was just hoping the other hadnt gone that way. Especially not because of him. Taehyung seemed to have gotten onto the question and he started to giggle at the other's concern.

"If you are asking that if I have practiced self harm before, then it is a no. I have gotten a tattoo before. That's why you little bunny." He said as he pulled the other's nose and booped it afterwards. The sigh of relief let out by Jeungguk was real.

"You really thought I would go into self harm?" taehyung asked again as he chuckled remembering jeungguk's question over and over again. "N-no." the other said. He couldn't help but tear up at the possibility.

"You silly bunny! I won't do such stuffs to myself!" Taehyung exclaimed as he continued to tease the other a bit more. And once Jeungguk had enough but the other didn't seem content, he could only see one way to stop it. and so he did. He kissed the other hard and allowed his hand to roam onto the other's clothed waist.

[slightly M]

A sudden urge to feel the other's skin caused an internal battle with himself. Taehyung on the other hand was kissing him back ferverently. Pouring in the same emotions: love, care, teasing and a little lust. The lust in the atmosphere was definitely not little. It was dominating in all aspects.

He pushed the other back lightly as he pulled the t-shirt over his head and threw it into neverlands. Once it was gone, Taehyung pulled his husband by his neck and smashed their lips back together. Their lips moving in synch as Taehyung had his arms locked around Jeungguk's neck.

Seeing the other's honey kissed abs exposed had the younger husband in fiasco. He was afraid to touch the other now. wondering if the other would be comfortable by it. of course he would be. He was the one who pulled his shirt over and exposed his skin to him.

And so he unsurely placed his hands back on the other's waist. Which was now void of any clothes. The feeling of the soft skin under his callused hands had Jeungguk's mind in a frenzy. He froze in the kiss as he continued to lightly caress the other's skin.

Taehyung pulled back from the kiss at the other's lack of response. He looked at the latter only to find him eyeing his now exposed skin. He leaned closer to the other's ears and whispered, "Touch them all you want. They are all yours anyway."

As he declared, he reached for the other's hand and placed them on his skin. Rubbing against his skin as he let out a quiet moan at the sudden friction on them. This seemed to have boosted Jeungguk's confidence as he ran his finger's through the other's bare torso.

He ran them up and down as he watched the other's face contort into that of pleasure. A feeling of pride filling within himself of having made his husband encounter this please. He twirled his finger's around the other's waist line as he lightly pinched the other's waist. The other gasping at the feeling.

The feeling of having his naked skin in between his loved one's finger. Leaving his body at the other's mercy, willingly. The feeling was ecstatic. The feeling of wanting it more was not leaving him as he tugged at the other's hair.

Jeungguk laid him on the mattress as he got on top of his husband. Taking in the mess he was. He ran his eyes over the other's figure. Hair sticking out as some stuck to his forehead. His pupils dilated at the sudden intimacy as there is lust clouding his eyes. His swollen lips that were red now and the hard breaths he seemed to be leaving.

There was something missing though. And Jeungguk was quick to figure it out as he delved into the depths of the other's collar bone. Biting and squishing the skin that his teeth got hold on. Marking every inch that they touched and leaving a soft kiss to seal them later.

The red and purple blotches were decorating all over Taehyung's chest when Jeungguk was finally satisfied with his work. The groans, whines and moans of the other only agitating him further. The constant pulls and tugging of his hair urging him to go on.

Not like he wanted to stop. In their eight months of marriage, this was the first time they had such intimacy. And he couldn't get himself to stop now. he pulled the other by his neck as he smashed his lips onto the other's once again. Sucking and playing with the pair of lips as he couldn't get enough of the other's taste.

A swipe on the lower lip instantly allowing his tongue to delve past the boundaries and explore every inch of the other's mouth. The other unconsciously sucked on the other's tongue as the younger husband let out a groan at the feeling.

The sound bringing more pleasure to Taehyung as he roamed his fingers over the other's figure. Pinching and squishing every inch of skin he could get a hold off. Jeungguk was also moaning in pleasure at the other's actions. He couldn't get enough of the other and this one night was definitely not enough at all.

He pulled his head back in need of warmth as he watched the other slowly open his eyes. Locking gaze once more as he muttered a ' I love you' to get another 'I love you too' in the next instant. This drove him over the edge once more as he dived back to the other's neck. Finding the sweet spot and sucking endlessly on it. making it turn from honey coloured, to red, to purple.

[continue]

"I want to see your other tattoo." Jeungguk whispered out in the moment. Having suddenly remembered what the other had told and the other just pushed the younger off him. He sat up properly as he twisted towards his side to show the tattoo off.

There stood out 'JEUNGGUK' in all caps on the waistline. Jeungguk traced his fingers past the ink as his eyes filled up in the love the other had for him. "When did you get this?" the other whispered out once more. But instead of saying the date the other urged Jeungguk to look closer.

So he did. And found his answer. Because right below JEUNGGUK stood the date they promised to remember. '21.11.2018' it said. The date they officially became a couple. It was a year after though. After their break up. After Jeungguk was forced to leave the other. after Taehyung got his heart broken.

"You remembered?" Jeungguk asked as he looked at the other. he could see the love the other had for him and silently cursed himself again for leaving the other. "I always did." Taehyung said as he smiled at the memory of that very day.

Surprisingly or not, the current day where they sat in each other's arms was also 21.11. Four years after and their love was still strong. Even a million years after, their love would still be as strong. Nothing would ever come in between. They wouldn't allow it. they wouldn't allow anything to break their love anymore.

"Don't you want to see the tattoo we got?" Taehyung asked after a while and he got a curt nod from the other as a reply. And so he silently turned himself around, making his back face Jeungguk as he allowed the other to see. Jeungguk froze for the nth time today.

In a similar style to Taehyung's first tattoo stood the words, 'Bunny's' in small letters this time. he smiled at the word. the grin wouldn't stop spreading itself on his cheek.

"Yes. You are Bunny's." he stated again. He heard the other laugh silently as he had his eyes glued to the single word. but once he tried to divert his focus, there stood something else in a smaller font. "Since 25.02.2021" he read it out loud. The date of their marriage.

And with that Jeungguk hugged the other from back and silently cried on him. He loved the other. beyond any words could comply. And he was euphoric to know that the other had the same kind of love towards him as well. A love so pure and innocent. A love that he was sure he would cherish for the rest of his life.

"I love you tiger." Jeungguk said against the other's skin. Tiger's. that was what was written on the mafioso's back. With the date below in the same font. He pulled the other closer to himself and refused to let go. Not like the other wanted him to either.

"I love you too bunny." The other said as he pulled them to lay down in the same position. Cuddled up with Taehyung being the small spoon. An intimate night turned to a beautiful one. it was possible. Possible to want a human for them and not just for their body.

Want them for their soul and not for their curves. Want them for who they actually are and not for who they pretend to be. Want them enough to break them out of their mask that they seem to always stay hidden behind in the fear of people's fear.

The want. That was what was considered as the driving force of every couple. The driving force of this couple as well. The wanting of each other in all aspects and at all times.
