Chapter 48: The Jealous Satellite

            Jimin contemplated everything, he thought about how Taehyung tried his best to explain every little thing as it was. There, Jimin took it like a pill that was hard to swallow, he sat on the couch and had to accept that Jungkook would be going to space for a year or less, leaving Jimin behind to wait just like Namjoon. It was moments like these, Jimin didn't know what to do. He sat there and bit his own lip to silence his complaints as Taehyung wandered around the house like a child Jimin watched over.

              “Jimin! I never realized that there are planets hanging from the ceiling of your room! Ah, your daddy must really love you!” Taehyung teased and at that moment, Jimin coughed and took a double take over at the direction of the hall where Taehyung wandered around in.

              “D-Daddy?” Jimin asked and walked into his own room to see Taehyung standing on the bed to gaze at the yellow planet with the B248 sculpture right by it. “Taehyung, no!”

               “Ah, I just want to look at these… Oh, they're really beautiful. Did Jungkook carve these? I think he did… He must really love you. I guess he's your sugar daddy!” Taehyung laughed and his eyes locked with the yellow planet just above the bed. “However… I've never seen this planet at all… What is it?”

               “It's not a real planet, Jungkook made it for me. That's planet JM-95…” Jimin mentioned and moved in closer to gaze at the yellow planet. Of course, this little planet symbolized many things; Jungkook found it in his dream before getting to know Jimin and they shared many firsts under that yellow, carved, planet; except for their first kiss. Their first kiss was spent on the couch with the light of the sun beaming through their window glass when they first locked lips on that beautiful day. Almost two months ago to be exact! “I really like it…”

              “I can tell you do! Ah, that's not fair, guess I'll have to make my own planet to hang on the top of my bed. It seems so cool!” Taehyung laughed. Getting off the bed and landing onto the ground, almost falling off at that moment. “So, how was it?~”

              “How was what?” Questioned the older and finally parted his focus from the yellow planet to lock eyes onto Taehyung's perverted smile. “A-Ah… Why do I have to answer that?”

              “He must be pretty big, isn't he?~” The younger proceeded until Jimin brought up a pillow and threw it at the young man. “I-I TAKE IT BACK!” Taehyung shouted again and chuckles followed after. “So, what do you usually do here with Jungkook?”

             “We watch movies, I spend at least thirty minutes on the porch, then today we were supposed to walk around… But, he's at work..” Jimin answered and tossed himself onto the bed. “I want to wait for my Jungkook here… I don't want to do anything today until he comes back…”

              “I get that you're really attached to him, but if he comes back to see you made no progress, how do you think he'd feel? Come on, let's order breakfast and dinosaur-shaped pancakes! I remember how much you loved those!”

               “Yeah, when I was a kid.” Jimin giggled and sat up from the bed to see Taehyung smiling excitedly. “Fine… I guess sitting here won't do me any good. Let's go have breakfast.” Jimin insisted and by there, Taehyung walked out of the room with the older. Being able to have Jimin move on from that little stump he came across without having Jungkook by his side.

                At that same hour, Jungkook arrived to the facility and he felt a wave of nostalgia hit him within seconds. “Ah, it's so good to be back…” Jungkook whispered to himself and walked into the building where he was greeted by his fellow astronomers after two months of his absence. Many astronomers asked him about Jimin and wanted to talk for a long hour and so on, but the young man had to cut the conversation short as soon as Mr. Park spotted him from one of the stations.

               “Mr. Jeon! I'm so glad you're back. I've been expecting you for quite some time.” The elder added as Jungkook smiled and bowed with glee. “I never expected you to take in such a mission for Jimin… Have you tried talking to him about what he did on that rocket?”

              “N-Not yet… ah, it's so hard for me to do it since I'm worried I'll make things too obvious. But don't worry, I'll ask him and try to keep the truth from him… I just don't want to break it to him now.” Confessed the young astronomer as he placed on his white, lab coat that still had his name sewn on the upper right of his chest.

             “I know how hard it is for you to break it to someone you love as much as my son, Jungkook. Tell him when the time is right. Anyways, I think you should mention this to Taehyung sooner or later, I didn't want to tell him this earlier just to surprise him! The board accepted your request as long as they have Jimin guiding the trip by the monitors to watch over the two of you. Yes, Taehyung will be your partner for this mission. Namjoon suggested Taehyung should do it.” The elder added and by there Jungkook felt happy, yet a little jealous at that very moment.

           Jungkook was thankful to have Taehyung by his side for the mission, however…  that meant Namjoon would be left with Jimin. Even if the elder did move on, Jungkook still had his second thoughts on the man after knowing he was Jimin's ex and the only thing that stood in their way was the expedition and Mr. Park. If it wasn't for those two, Namjoon would have already had Jimin as his husband and that alone made Jungkook jealous and a little upset.

              “That's great.” Jungkook replied and rolled his tongue along his own cheek at the thought. Without a warning, Namjoon showed up and carried a cardboard cup holder with three cups of coffee already set into its own place.

              “Ah, it's getting really cold out there!” Namjoon mentioned and let out a chuckle before offering coffee to Mr. Park and then to Jungkook. “Glad to have you back, Jungkook. How's Jimin? How is his progress?”

              “Oh that reminds me!” Mr. Park said happily and accepted the cup of coffee that was offered to him. “Aside from you and Jimin's romance, how is my son's progress?” Mr. Park questioned. Yet, this came as a shock to Namjoon when he noticed how well Mr. Park took Jungkook and Jimin's relationship. The feeling he had made him grow a little upset, knowing that he never had the support from Mr. Park like that before.

               “It's going alright, he has been outside for quite a while and then we went out to buy groceries. He kept calm and didn't allow anything get the best of him, I'm so proud of him. Very soon, he'll be able to come to work once again.” Namjoon listened to Jungkook and was left surprised; he expected the elder to get upset and deny them… But, the smile on Mr. Park's face said otherwise. It only seemed that now, Namjoon had a bit of jealousy rushing through like asteroids shooting from space.

           After the end of it all, Namjoon watched how Jungkook and Mr. Park left together as close as they ever were before Jimin came to earth. To Namjoon, he never got the same treatment as Jungkook and began to look back to when he was always given a dark glare from the elder. Never that gleeful gaze Jungkook was given as if he was adored by the elder to be with Jimin forever. Namjoon stood there and let out a sigh while staring at the two hold their coffees and talk about Jimin happily along with the task at hand; while the older man stood there and looked down at one cup of coffee within his four-hole, cardboard, cup-holder. “Maybe… I loved him too soon…” Whispered the married man before glancing down on his wedding ring over his left, ring finger in silence.

             As the night grew closer, Jimin was asleep in his own room with Taehyung taking up the space by his side. The two talked on and on about many things that came into mind and slept right after, but Taehyung made sure he remained awake so he could head home once Jungkook brings his car back. Until then, Taehyung sat right by Jimin that cold night until he heard the front door to the house swing shut. At that moment Taehyung smiled and finally got off the bed he shared with Jimin after a long day. Together, the two watched scary movies, they walked around the neighborhood for at least thirty minutes, and then ate their three meals for the day. Taehyung enjoyed taking care of Jimin and finally hanging out with his best friend from before.

             As soon as he walked out of the room, he stumbled upon Jungkook standing right before him. “O-Oh! You scared me there, Kookie Cru-”

             “Ah, don't finish that word.” Jungkook chuckled and began to take off his suspenders, pulling them off his shoulders and letting them dangle from his dress pants. “Here, oh and I also wanted to say… You won't be able to take care of Jimin for me tomorrow. That's because you'll be coming with me on the mission.” announced the younger so suddenly. With that being said, Taehyung hugged the younger tightly within his arms. Causing Jungkook to laugh and somewhat want to scream at how tight the man's grip was. “Y-You're killing me!”

           “I'M SO HAPPY! TO SPACE? WITH YOU?! I DO! Where's my ring?” Taehyung shouted in glee as Jungkook quickly handed him the keys and silenced him with a shove down the hall for him to leave. “Oh to space… I'm so happy! So, do I start tomorrow?” Taehyung asked as Jungkook pushed him out the house.

          “Yes, goodnight and make sure you pick me up tomorrow. Or else you can't start without me.” Jungkook advised the man and this made Taehyung finally hold the glee he had one year ago when he was given the mission that soon became Jimin's. Only now, it was his to claim. Next, Taehyung left for the night as Jungkook unclipped his suspenders and loosened his tie to walk down the hall to where Jimin's room was. The young man then opened the door silently to walk in and see Jimin fast asleep right where he laid.

           “Oh my sleepy, little, Mochi…” Jungkook whispered. Making his way over to Jimin's side of the bed and leaning in to peck his boyfriend's pink, warm, plump lips. “Goodnight, my love…” The younger whispered. He noted every little gleam of the moonlight shining down on Jimin's pale skin and the visual Jungkook was greeted to, made him stand there a little longer to stare. Eventually, Jungkook finally left the room and walked to his own. After a long day of work and researching the chances of the B248 coming to pieces after a low chance of asteroids pelting at it, Jungkook wasn't as tired as he thought he would be.

          “Guess I'll just go watch some shows to pass the time.” Jungkook mentioned. After a good five minutes of him going through social media; sitting on his bed with his tie still hanging around his white dress shirt, and his black slacks still over his matching socks, the man procrastinated and eventually ditched the idea of going to watch shows in the living room. Little did he know, that Jimin was already awake after the gentle kiss he has been waiting to feel after a long day.

            Jungkook was just on his phone texting Taehyung to focus on driving when Jimin suddenly walked in and let out a smile once his eyes met with the one he admired. “Jungkook… Oh, you're back!” Jimin screamed happily and ran over to his lover to jump into his arms. This made Jungkook drop his phone and fall back onto the bed once Jimin giggled happily against his ears. “I missed you!”

           The young man then guided his hands along Jimin's small waist hiding under his white tank top; that went along with his red briefs on, and matching with his burgundy thigh-length socks. “I missed you too, Mochi… Ah! Wait a second.. Why are you wearing this when Taehyung was here? You have to cover up more, you're mine. Only I get to see you like this.” The young man pointed out as Jimin giggled each time Jungkook grew jealous. “Don't giggle!”

           “Jungkook… You're so jealous. I'm your one and only star, your one and only universe… Why is my satellite Jeon so jealous?” Jimin teased and with that, Jungkook swiftly pulled a smirk and turned Jimin over to cage him under as always. “A-Ah! W-Wait!” Jimin yelped playfully as he giggled once Jungkook moved his head in and began to press kisses along Jimin's neck. “J-Jungkook, you've missed me so much!” The older said in between his giggles. Finally, Jungkook slowly came to a stop and nodded his head before softly kissing Jimin repeatedly against his own lips for that very still and passionate second.

           “Oh my Mochi… I've missed you more than anything I've ever longed to see before.” Whispered the younger and words like that gave Jimin's face a red, vibrant tint. With that being said, Jungkook slipped both of his hands under Jimin's shirt to allow his own to explore all parts of his lover; before he leaned in and left a soft kiss against Jimin's pelvis underneath the white tank top. “I missed you… so...so… much, my love.~”
