#Warning: Mature!

Third Person’s P.O.V.

“Are you really sure about this?” Jin asked being taken aback by Taehyung’s words, eyes widening as he tried to check if the other really meant what he actually said.

“Yeah, I’m sure. I practically ruined your chances every damn time, it’s only fair that I make it right” he spoke caressing Jin’s head, smiling widely to think he was actually being a good lover and parent.

“But you know going to work means I’ll be away almost all day. You sure you’ll be okay with Soo alone…all day…with no me to help you out?” Jin waited for the answer, checking unsurely at Taehyung’s face.

“Eh, that’s rude baby…she’s my little girl after all. I’m sure we’ll be fine, you’re just worrying too much” Taehyung spoke, arms coiling about Jin as they sat trying to enjoy the movie playing before them but in reality it was just background noise as they kept deviating to other stuff.

Jin sceptically agreed for now, leaning onto the other to try to concentrate back on the movie.

It had been about a couple of weeks that they had began settling into this new side of living together, things were finally good, they were so happy all the time, smiling and revelling in each other’s company, it was almost too good to be true.

And Taehyung knew that no matter how content n delighted Jin looked right now, it was actually his fault that Jin didn’t get a chance to have a normal life, fulfil his dreams of becoming a photographer and he had been tied down because he had to take care of Soohee all by himself since he had not been there to stand by him through those troubled times.

So, he took it on himself to do it right this time…Jin deserved this, especially after everything he had put him through.

He softly pecked at Jin’s head smiling to himself as he promised to himself that if he could then he would go back in time and he would make sure they had a perfect love story…guess, it’s never too late to begin again.

Jin tilted his head up to stare at him, he was more than sure Taehyung wasn’t aware what it was to actually care for a baby and was still debating with the thought of going ahead to look for his favoured profession.

“What? I’m really serious about this” Taehyung tried to assure him again with a smile “don’t worry”

“What is she allergic to?” Jin asked blankly.

“What?” Taehyung was a bit confused with the question but realized Jin was putting him up for a test “soy milk, I think” he remembered Jin telling him once about it.

“She’s allergic to peanuts too” Jin informed anew before throwing the next question “favourite fruit? She doesn’t like apple juice by the way, it has to be orange juice, always”.

“Baby” Taehyung squeezed him to himself, chuckling to see Jin be so concerned n dead worried which clearly showed on his face. “I’ll learn to take care of her, just like you did” he cupped his face and Jin nodded to the words, he kissed those soft plush lips in gentle assurance and felt gratified when Jin kissed him back with equal intention.

So, three days later when Jin was off to work and left Soohee to Taehyung’s care, it was a fun scene to watch the perfectly adept soldier being turned to a pitiful man who could be heard whining after his daughter as she waddled through the apartment, her ecstatic giggles a sheer mockery to all his trials to keep her in one place.

“Sit” Taehyung spoke setting her down as he sat down with her on the floor, surrounding her with her most favourite toys and building a barricade around her with plushies and cushions. He took out his phone, clicking a pic of a happily playing Soo and sent it to Jin to show how well they were spending their day.

“See, we’re good right?” He pecked at her head “you know, your Appa wasn’t sure about me taking care of you…you’re gonna be a good girl for me right Soo?” He saw her completely ignoring his words as she babbled busily with her unicorn plushie, not even sparing him a glance as he brushed her brunette curls away from her eyes.

Yeah, she was a good girl…for fifteen more minutes.

“Wait! You’ll hurt yourself!” Taehyung had to literally crawl after her as she sped over her wall of plushies to head across the living room, crawling under the dining table making her dad curse under his breath when he hit his head trying to follow after. She was damn fast, Taehyung agreed to that and saw her literally grin at him before picking shakily up on her legs to wobble ahead into the kitchen. Taehyung intercepted her this time, racing after her till he finally caught on and picked her up.

“Hah you little devil...gotcha!” he panted patting her back as she whined and beat her legs demanding to be put down “I wasn't called the 'tiger' of my team for nothing ya know”. He grinned back now, peppering her face with kisses as she groaned and complained more.

“Okay…okay calm down now” he was growing nervous as she began grumbling and whining and before long broke out into a loud sob, thrashing and complaining.

“Soo…stop crying, what is it? I’m sorry, you’re not a little devil…you’re my baby angel! Papa was just joking sweetie” he was desperately trying to calm her down now, fervently patting her head and back but her sobs were only growing louder. The apartment was echoing with her gasping cries as tears ran down her cheeks.

“Okay…I think I’m in trouble” he was walking around the living room in long strides, rocking the child to calm her down “what does Appa do when you’re upset?”

He tried to think but realised and halted suddenly to speak to a wailing Soohee “you don’t get upset with him around do you? This is a test you’re putting me through, aren’t you?”

Taehyung groaned feeling more helpless as the minutes went by and no toys or treats were getting his daughter to stop crying her lungs out.

Finally, he decided he needed help and grabbed at the phone but his finger stopped over Jin’s number.

“If I call him he’s gonna get worried…” he bit into his lips, debating and he scrolled down hitting Hoseok’s number instead.

“Hey…so umm, how do you…you know” he tried to speak disregarding Soohee’s roaring gasping wails.

“You’re in trouble, aren’t you? She sounds really mad” Hoseok spoke and Taehyung could almost see the building scowl on the other end of the line.

“Yeah, I don’t know why she’s so upset though” he spoke into the phone tucked between his shoulder and ear “how do I get her to stop?”

“Put her down first” “No way…she’s like a coyote on wheels!” Taehyung protested against the suggestion.

“Just do it if you want her to calm down, you’ll thank me later” Hoseok chuckled before disconnecting the call, and Taehyung gingerly listened, choosing to set her down on the playpen rather. Her cries did soften a bit but she didn’t look very happy yet, flailing angrily around the playpen and throwing her toys at him.

“Whoa…whoa…fine, I won’t pick you up” he assured putting his hands up, accepting defeat for the first time in life and submitted to his tiny attacker “now…you stay here, and I’ll bring you food. Okay?” He gestured her to stay, watching her still sobbing and hiccupping and sniffling.

Lunch was another catastrophe with Soohee denying to eat and Taehyung trying his best to feed her and not losing his mind in the process. He gave up after duelling for about an hour as she broke out in more fresh new defiant wails, getting more troublesome the more he tried to get her to calm down. She ended throwing up everything he had managed to feed her and had to give her a bath to clean the mess she had made of herself. And finally just let her do whatever she pleased, as he laid splat on the floor in the middle of the living room while she seemed still charged up with energy, crawling about without a pause.

Taehyung closed his eyes sighing, realizing how difficult it was going to be to do this every day…seemed like a tougher routine than his early training days and he couldn’t believe what Jin had to go through for the months he had been solely taking care of Soohee.  

It took him sometime to realize that the room had fallen awfully quiet, the little gurgles and soft giggles no longer heard and his eyes flew open in panic as the realization hit him as he checked left and right to search for her.

“Pap-ppa” he heard a little voice right over his head and felt tiny hands playing with his hair making him look up at her and saw her smiling face hovering right above him.

“Hey li’l one…would you please go easy on Papa? Papa’s so damn tired you know…” he spoke, caressing her hand that she had set on his cheek, gently kissing her fingers. She crawled over his shoulder and up his chest to settle there and he couldn’t stop his giggles now as she patted his chest and spoke in broken incoherent words before snuggling and yawning prettily to tuck her head into his neck and coiled into a ball “finally tired aren’t you?” He caressed her head, kissing her with a smile when he saw her falling asleep in the next minute.

He lay there fearing waking her up if he moved even the tiniest bit and when Jin arrived, hollering to the silent apartment that he was back and walked into living room to see the scene of the two sleeping on the floor with Soohee resting on Tae’s chest, he couldn’t help but smile although he was very confused about what must have happened to get them in their current situation and all the toys littered about the living room.

Although Taehyung always told him that everything was super cool and they had so much fun all day but his tired sigh and aching groans whenever he’d move around after the long day made it very evident to Jin that Soo was being troublesome for him to deal with.

He knew it would take Taehyung time to get used to Soohee’s whimsies and moody outbreaks but in another week he could tell that they had progressed a lot, although he often got news from Hoseok or Kook or Yoongi about how Taehyung had called them up to ask how to get Soohee to calm down, what was the game she liked to play or what would help him to feed her without her creating a mess.

And although Jin was really enjoying going back to work, he worried incessantly about the two when he was away.

But his worry heightened to extreme levels when one weekend Namjoon called Taehyung up, telling him that he was coming over because he had some really important stuff to talk about.

“B-But why?” Jin asked, voice low and apprehensive as he heard Namjoon tell Taehyung that the officials wanted him to report to the headquarters at the end of the week.

“He was never relieved from duty Jin” Namjoon’s words made both Tae and Jin’s eyes spark wide, they didn’t know how to feel about this little piece of information.

“He’s still a soldier, and they have a proposition for him” he smiled proudly as he looked at Taehyung, however Taehyung could feel Jin frowning and fidgeting beside him in growing anxiousness. He clasped at his hand, trying to assure him that it was okay, that he had no reason to be afraid, that a call for duty was something very prestigious, something he had been barred from for becoming an untrustworthy soldier by joining Axel.

“Does he really have to though?” Jin mumbled as if to himself, his fingers tightening around Taehyung’s “he just got back”

“Hey” Taehyung turned to him, he could feel Jin’s growing panic although he could see how hard Jin was trying not to show it “Jin…it’s who I am, I have no clue to do anything else other than being a soldier” “Do you really want to? I mean…I’m sorry, I’m being selfish, ain’t I?”

He hung his head low, feeling utterly troubled…he wanted to tell him that he did not want him to go back to being a soldier, he wanted to tell him that he wanted him right where he was and be by his side all the time, he wanted to tell him that he was very very selfish and a hypocrite as well who enjoyed doing what he loved but didn’t want Taehyung to go become the ideal soldier he wanted to be.

He remained quiet throughout the evening, debating in his mind how to handle this new situation and Taehyung saw how down he looked. He went to visit the headquarters at the end of the week and when they told him about what they intended him to do and that Namjoon would be heading this mission as a General this time, he knew it was time to talk to Jin.

Jin had been very silent these past few days, deliberately avoiding him and the issue of him going back to duty again and he knew he was actually upset with him for not denying the opportunity.

So, that night after putting Soohee to bed when he entered their room to see Jin numbly laying on his side, he realized it was time to sit down and explain everything to him.

He saw Jin turn the other way when he crawled under the blanket, blatantly denying to even face him and he intentionally coiled an arm about him, setting his chin on Jin’s shoulder, coaxing him to listen as he placed soft kisses on his skin.

“Are you upset with me?”

Jin sighed without replying, watching the dresser pensively.

“They want me to help them track down those who had aided in Axel’s plans because they believe I can help them being so closely associated to Axel” Taehyung spoke pecking that soft cheek before setting his head on Jin’s as he spooned him but there was still no reply from Jin.

“It’s not like I’m going away baby” his arm coiled a little tighter around that slim waist “I’ll be home most of the days, except when I’ll be on an infiltration mission but I promise we’ll find a way to balance our time with Soo-” “It’s not that, Jimin said he’ll be glad to help us out” Jin mumbled before sighing loudly and turning about to stare up at Taehyung “I hate being in constant fear of what might happen to you”

And Taehyung could see the utter worry in those endearing brown eyes.

“I was so close to losing you once, you were hurt n bleeding right in front of me and yet there was nothing I could do to help…I felt so helpless” a line of tear ran down the corner of his eyes to meet the pillow as he spoke, rigidly discarding the shaking of his bottom lip “but tell me how would I explain that you chose it for yourself to Soo if something happens to you? How do I tell her that it’s who you are? That you are a soldier and she should be proud of you, even though she didn’t get to know what it is to have her Papa around her…” he broke out into sobs being unable to hold those back anymore and pressed his eyes close, trying to hide into his pillow but Taehyung cupped his face, pressing his forehead to Jin’s.

“I won’t die that easily baby, won’t let you get rid of me that easily-” “Don’t joke Tae…you don’t know what I went through when you lay there in a coma for days” Jin’s pain got his anger to flare as he stiffly denied to look at the other.

Taehyung caressed his face, making Jin look at him “I didn’t know that you’re this possessive of me” he smiled placing feather-light kisses on Jin’s face “okay, I won’t go” he waited to see Jin look suddenly indecisive, his eyes guilty for being selfish.

“Although if I deny my duties, they won’t be awarding me the Merit of Honour and neither would I be given the status of a Colonel in the next mission”

Jin’s eyes snapped wider to gaze at him in utter wonder “an award?”

“For my selfless service to the country and the people” Taehyung quoted the officials “they said I earned it the hard way. So, what do you think? Do I take it or leave it?” He smiled feeling full with the way Jin’s eyes seemed so proud of him, and leaned down to kiss him but right before he could Jin spoke again.

“They’re making you a Colonel? Like Namjoon?” Taehyung felt Jin’s arms softly coiling about him now.

“Yeah baby” he smiled, pressing his mouth on Jin’s without further ado and felt the usual euphoric bliss takeover him instantly, he felt high when Jin pulled him tighter to himself and kissed him harder. He had been desperate for Jin to let go of his anger against him because being around Jin and not getting to be himself, showering his affection on the other was very difficult for him. 

“Promise me you’ll be careful” Jin gasped out as they broke the kiss as he held Taehyung’s face in between his palms “I’ll be very very upset if you get hurt again…I can’t even think about it, so please…please remember that”

And Taehyung leaned in again smiling widely “told you you’re not getting rid of me that easily” he captured those lips again, delighted to see that Jin had agreed now. He took the chance to get Jin pinned under him, taking his time to push the t-shirt away as he rubbed his hands over Jin's smooth chest and alluring hips, his mind creating tantalizing images turning him on more than he already was.

Jin squirmed feeling Tae’s hands crawling down his hip to slip through the waistband of his shorts and felt the kiss get heated when Taehyung forced his tongue into his mouth, demanding to taste all of him. He moaned into the kiss when he felt warm long fingers wrapping around his member, shuddering and trying to breathe in as his mind pooled with pleasure. He knew where this was going, he had been avoiding Taehyung for the past week and this was probably the reason behind him being this needy but he had been feeling so troubled and now that he had agreed to it, he realized Tae must be feeling content with it.

Taehyung let him breathe as he dove next to gnaw at his neck and Jin whimpered when he demandingly pressed his bulge on him, grinding in lustful need before he was removing Jin’s shorts.

“You have a way of trying to distract me with sex…I’m not convinced though” Jin grumbled before biting down a moan when he felt Taehyung pushing into him two spit-drenched fingers to scissor him open, his hasty actions and laboured breathing was getting Jin more and more entranced in his lust.

“Then what do I do to convince you?” Taehyung’s voice was teasing against Jin’s ear making Jin mewl in utter pleasure as he felt himself nearing his high.

“Mhm-nghh” Jin couldn’t speak and knew Tae was simply teasing him. He cried out and dug his nails on his back when he felt his cock pushing into him. Taehyung clutched at the back of his thighs opening him up wider as he rocked his hips against Jin’s. He watched Jin instantly lose his complaints against him, his mouth falling open feeling utterly pleasured and he leaned down to kiss him hungrily.

Jin completely forgot what was it they were talking about as he pushed his fingers into those thick wavy tresses and softly tugged at those, breathlessly moaning out how good it felt as Tae slammed into him again and again, determinedly hitting at that sensitive bundle of nerves making him thrash and moan louder yet.

“Ohh f-fuck!” Jin arched his back spilling his orgasm out against their chest and belly, dropping tiredly back onto the pillow and groaned out feeling how completely wild Taehyung was in his need to reach his high as well. His thrusts were punishingly hard, the bronze skin glimmering with sweat and body taut with lust. His voice gravelly as he continuously spoke about how much he loved him and how beautiful he is and how much he meant to him. Jin turned to cup his face, his breathy grunts hitting his lips before Taehyung just captured his lips, tongue reckless in need to taste him before his hips stuttered. He moaned ducking to nuzzle into Jin’s neck as he came, shivers of orgasmic bliss running through him still as he thrusted slowly, sharp groans spilling out of his lips as he pressed his mouth on Jin’s damp feverish skin.

They lay heaving while Jin threaded his fingers through his hair, gently pecking at the side of Tae’s face.

“I’m just so scared…I didn’t mean to sound like I didn’t want you to do what I know you believe is your duty” he ran his nose against his jaw, placing soft pecks along “but I’m so scared of losing you, you’re all Soo and I have you know”

Taehyung pulled out, propping himself on his elbows as he was half hovering over Jin, contemplating on how to answer to get Jin’s worries down.

“It’s the same for me too baby…you’re all I have” he spoke caressing Jin’s face, and Jin snuggled into him, embracing him as he set his head against him, pressing his eyes close as he mumbled into his chest “I love you so much”

“I love you so so much baby” Taehyung spoke smiling to himself, caressing the back of Jin’s head.

Jin felt him set his chin on top of his head “Jin?”

“Mhmm” Jin felt sleep covering his senses slowly as he snuggled closer.

“Marry me”

And just like that all tiredness seemed to flush out of him as his head snapped up to watch Taehyung with wide wonderstruck eyes.

“Why are you so surprised? You’re scaring me baby” he chuckled, thumb lovingly running on Jin’s lips “don’t say no please…I know we had just one date but-” “You want us to get married?” Jin’s voice was soft and yet so very hopeful, he had always thought about it but never believed that they could actually get the scope to have something as sacred and beautiful as marriage with how messed up their journey had been. 
      
“Of course I do! I never really got a chance to dream about it but these last few days I’ve been thinking about it a lot, and without a doubt this is what I want” he tucked a strand of hair behind Jin’s ear, caressing his face to softly steal a taste of his plush lips and smiled contently “this is exactly what I want, now tell me what do you want? I’m getting impatient now baby”

He saw Jin blinking blankly at him and that got him more worried, he couldn’t tell what Jin was thinking. He thought Jin would most definitely say yes, especially after everything they had been through and how he had forever chosen to stand by him.

“Speak please…say yes” he was pleading now, stupidly blinking back at him.

“You’re such a..ugh! I don’t know how you do it!” Jin threw himself at him, coiling his arms around his neck as he hid his face in his neck “we never had a proper date n here you are proposing to me in bed while we’re butt naked and stink of sex! You’re such a mess! Are we never gonna have anything properly done?!”

Taehyung laughed hearing those whining words, feeling Jin’s tears touch his shoulder and held him a little tighter, this warmth was all he needed to forever keep him warm and hopeful for a future ahead.

“So, is that a yes?” He spoke against his head and Jin answered him with a kiss, and they toppled back onto the mattress with Jin kissing Taehyung intensely.

“Yes” Jin grinned at him, biting his lip before speaking again “I’ll marry you” and Jin could swear he had never seen Taehyung smile so wide, he watched stunned as the cutest box smile graced his lips as he flipped their position to hover over him.

"You look so breathtakingly gorgeous smiling like this" he was actually mumbling to himself as he gazed up with teary eyes, still stunned with what they were heading to create.

"Nobody has said this to me before you know" Taehyung spoke in a soft whisper right over his lips, still smiling widely "but then again no one has ever made me this happy"

And, his gleeful face made Jin believe that maybe he had finally been able to make him really happy, something he had forever intended to do because for him there was no greater reward than to see Taehyung be truly happy.
