Towards the end of the day, Jimin sat on the couch with his legs crossed over the couch while he carried a chocolate popsicle in his hand. The older still wore his black beanie, Jungkook’s white T-shirt, white thigh-length socks, and his usual black briefs right under the loose T-shirt. As he sat in the couch, he had the red blanket wrapped around his own body as Jungkook eventually walked in to join him.

            “The first thing you do when you get home is drop everything, then go off to change your clothes and eat a chocolate popsicle!” Jungkook teased and sat before Jimin to smile at him. “You didn't want to help me with the groceries?”

             “I always put the groceries away, Mr. Jeon!” Jimin stated and let out a giggle. As soon as Jungkook heard this, Jimin quickly threw a pillow over his own head and began to giggle.

            “You must really like calling me, ‘Mr. Jeon’ hm? What is that name to you, anyways?” Jungkook asked as Jimin poked his head out from under the pillow to let out a giggle to himself. “Tell me, what's so significant about it?”

            “I like calling you that, Mr. Jeon… It's my kink~” Jimin giggled as Jungkook shot his left brow up and started to laugh. “What?~”

            “Oh, Jimin! What did I do to you?” Jungkook laughed as Jimin then hid his giggles under his hand while he still held up his chocolate popsicle. By there, Jungkook crawled over Jimin and had him caged under with his hands planting over the older man on the couch. “You're so dirty minded. We did it once then, you want to go off and start begging for a second time and you already have a kink of calling me ‘Mr. Jeon' Ah, what am I going to do with you?”

           “Love me~” Jimin giggled and moved his head up to kiss his lover with glee. As they kissed over the couch, Jungkook smiled into it and let out a soft chuckle once their lips pulled away. “I like doing this more than sitting down and watching films…”

           “Hm? Well do you know what I like the most?” The younger questioned and traced his hands down to cup Jimin's face and give him another kiss. “Can you guess?~” Cooed the stargazer with his deep voice against Jimin's ear.

           “..The stars? Or do you mean love… If you meant love, then it's me!” Answered the older as Jungkook smiled and looked down at the lips of the older and then guided his hand down Jimin's cheek to his neck, his chest and finally… Jungkook grabbed Jimin's chocolate popsicle and got up as soon as he snatched it. “J-Jungkook!”

           “I like chocolate popsicles too.” Jungkook teased his lover to look back and blow a kiss to his Jimin.

           “T-That was mine!”

           “Don't worry, there's more in the box.” Jungkook cooed and continued to eat Jimin's popsicle. Silently watching how Jimin was on his knees over the couch in shock. “Mochi, if it isn't any trouble… Can you tell me now? About your trip? I want to hear about it… I really wondered about so many things while you were up there! If you can, I'd like to hear it first.” Jungkook requested and glanced over at his lover; meeting eyes and letting out the most brightest smile that lit up his own face at the topic. Jungkook just couldn't count the many days he waited to hear from an astronaut like Jimin. Deep down was where his heart portrayed his love for Jimin grew, was also a portrait of Jimin written under his biggest inspirations yet.

          “My trip… Hm, never thought I was going to return to those memories but here I am…” Jimin spoke to himself in silence, dropping down against the couch and eventually, reuniting his gaze with Jungkook once more. “Come cuddle with me and I'll tell you~” Was the only request Jimin made for the younger and as soon as Jungkook was done with the chocolate popsicle he stole from Jimin, he tossed the wooden stick into a waste bag, washed his hands, and lips from the chocolate before he could finally return to Jimin.

         Jungkook crawled over Jimin and removed the covers only to wrap himself in them and lay over his boyfriend to share the blanket this way. Slowly but gently, Jungkook hugged Jimin's petite body under his own bigger frame and felt Jimin's hands stroke along the roots of his black locks. “I always put my hands in your hair.”

        “I know, so I'm doing the same towards you!” The older whispered, softly moving his small fingers against the silk hair of his lover. Each fingertip of his hands met with every strand as if Jimin was slowly counting them in the back of his mind like the way he would count stars from the top of his head. “Alright… So, it was the day of my first launch…” Jimin whispered as if he was telling Jungkook a bedtime story with his delicate voice bouncing against the walls of Jungkook's ears like gentle strums of a harp. “As soon as the rocket launched, I was on my own. I hoped that time would heal my issues but like now, I knew it didn't… But enough about that…”

            “The B248 soon blasted off and broke atmosphere. It was my second time travelling off to space like that, so I was prepared for everything. The pressure, the silence, the consequences… I was up for anything to escape my issues. The stars were beautiful once my rocket strolled around space for some time and I remember as soon as I got to space, it was nighttime for everyone back on earth. It still shocked me out of everything.” Jimin told Jungkook and finally looked down at the man over his body. “Being up there was silent, dark, cold… lonely… I thought I was going to stay strong, but being alone gave me time to contemplate many things. Before I would strap myself against the bed on the wall to sleep, I would look out this little window… this window that gave me a good view of the planets, constellations and asteroids. It was so beautiful… I couldn't have ever expected to love the stars as much as I did before. Having the opportunity to finally stay still and watching those planets was perfect. Before, I'd go to fix satellites and then return, but by there, I had time in my hands. I looked at the stars and would attach myself to the rocket to step out in my spacesuit and take a good look outside before returning so quickly.”

              “You must have loved it so much…”

             “I did, Jungkook… I was beyond happy! Until...I stretched further from earth and lost connection with the base. Things went so downhill from there. I was going to make a break for Earth, but once I started the rocket, it just stopped working and I remember the first thing rushing into my head and that was ‘I'm going to die all alone..’ But of course, I was strong enough to have a confident mind to keep me going. I tried my best to fix the B248, but it took one earth year and I still couldn't fix it. I don't really know why that rocket shut down like that… so, I was trapped for good. Even through hell, I hoped someone would come find me and take me home! Ah, it was too much pain for me. I remember waking up from a nightmare that I got sucked into a black hole and got crushed within seconds! I was beginning to grow terrified. However, on the outside, I was silent and all I did for my own comfort was to hum to myself and hope for the best.”

           “So, your dreams alone and your experience there is the reasons why you held a traumatic experience against the stars?” Jungkook questioned and watched Jimin’s little hand shake back and forth to show that it was somewhat the issue.

            “Yes… well, somewhat. It was the fear I placed into my own head. The chances of me dying was high, the chances of me ever getting rescued were low along with my will to live on. I used to float by the little window in the B248 and grew to hate it… That little window seat to the stars, reminded me of death slowly approaching me. I had no time at all left to live off my oxygen tank and when I finally accepted death, I suddenly had the urge to fight. It wasn't that I despised the stars after coming back to earth, I was afraid because it reminded me of this weak state I was in… It reminded me so much of death, I just couldn't keep looking at it. It killed me inside and dragged my body all around in my own head.” Jimin told Jungkook his story as Jungkook felt his heart grow heavy each time Jimin spoke of his dark thoughts in space to throw in the towel, but he kept fighting and that's what made Jimin such a strong inspiration to his boyfriend.

           “You may not look like it, but you're very strong, Park Jimin. Being able to push through the darkest parts of your own mind to have high hopes of coming back. I don't think I would have waited that long for a rescue.” Commented the young man and rose his head to press his nose against Jimin's. “My strong, Mochi…” With that simple whisper, Jimin's hands shot up Jungkook's torso and dragged his own fingertips up to Jungkook’s face to hold.

           “E-Even sometimes… I just think I'm still back in the B248; hallucinating or sleeping where I'm dreaming of a life with you. Someone so perfect and lovely.” Jimin stated softly and finally moved his head upwards to kiss Jungkook. Next, Jungkook followed in with the kisses, and felt the soft hands of his Jimin; cup his own face gleefully. “You mean the world to me…”

            “You mean the whole universe to me, Park Jimin… You're my everything..” Jungkook said, pressing his head against Jimin's forehead and kissing him against the couch. By there, the two began to make out with their hearts nearly skipping a beat at the moment. Jimin smiled into the kiss many times; biting his own lip once they pulled back to breathe, doing this in a way to tease Jungkook further. The two shared a messy kiss where Jungkook began to suck onto the bottom lip of Jimin's rose and plump lips. With every suck Jungkook gave, he heard a slight whimper from his lover and only tempted to go a little further before setting himself a limit before he went on any further. Jungkook wanted to touch Jimin, but he held himself back knowing that Jimin just got cured.

             “Jungkook…” Jimin panted to himself before raising his hands up around his lover’s neck to pull him closer. “I love you… Oh, I love you…” Breathed the boy softly before pressing his head back to embrace the feeling of Jungkook's wet kisses trace down to his neck. “I-I want it now..”

            “I'm not going to do that to you… Not when you just recovered.” The younger spoke out and finally stopped to guide the tip of his nose to press against Jimin's soft and pale neck. “You'll have to wait for it, My Mochi…” Continued Jungkook. “Until then… This is as far as we can go.” The younger whispered. Enough to tease Jimin in an alluring tone to his deep voice. The young stargazer remained pressing kisses against his lover's neck and then leaving a hickey under his collarbones to make Jimin breathe heavily with red blushes tinting his pale face.

             “B-But Jungkoo-” Jimin sputtered and was suddenly cut off when the younger's phone began to ring. “A-Ah…” The older gasped to himself softly once Jungkook got off and quickly took his own phone out his pocket. “Jungkook… put it on silent!”

              “Give me a moment… Your father is calling me, I have to take it.” Replied the astronomer as Jimin laid back onto the couch. Locking his gaze at the ceiling to wait once Jungkook answered the call to Mr. Park at an unexpected moment like this. Jungkook only began to wonder, what was the elder calling for now?
