Jungkook was looking out the window of Taehyung's room, well now his room to be exact. It's been a week since the incident happened. His bandages were removed and he could walk without any pain. Taehyung too was shifted from the ICU to a regular room. His injuries were healing nicely and the swelling on his face had also come down, but he still needed to stay in the hospital for another week, making Taehyung throw a tantrum like a 5 years old kid.

Though this was the most difficult week of his life, he was happy. Mr & Mrs. Park has been pampering and spoiling him so that he never misses his home or his father, well you can't really miss what you never had. But there's still a part of him that wishes that his father would accept his love.

Sometimes he feels really overwhelmed with all the love and attention that he ends up crying alone at night. Just a few months back he used to stay up at night crying and wishing to have atleast one person that he could talk to, and now he has an entire family that he could call his own. It makes him scared sometimes that all of this is just a dream, a product of his imagination and when he wakes up everything is going to vanish.

I guess it's true what they say, "People who have nothing are never afraid, but people who have everything are always afraid." Jungkook was brought out of his imagination when he heard the voice of the person he had been waiting for.

"Are you ready Kookie, or do you still need time?"

"I'm ready Uncle, I was just waiting for you to come. I'll just get the tiffin box and then we can leave." Jungkook said, walking out of the room to get the packed tiffin boxes to take to the hospital.

Everything had fallen into a schedule after Taehyung was shifted to a room. His friends had decided to go back to college after getting scolded by both Mr & Mrs. Park, but Jungkook didn't want to go until Taehyung was discharged from the hospital. He was also adamant about staying with Taehyung at night and who was Mr & Mrs. Park to deny his wishes. And that's how they came up with the schedule.

Jungkook would stay the night with Taehyung and in the morning one of their friends, depending on whose turn it is, would come with breakfast. They'd have breakfast together and then Jungkook would return back home, while their friend stay back keeping Taehyung company.

Then at noon, Mrs Park would bring lunch for them. They have lunch together and the friend leaves and Mrs. Park stay back. Meanwhile Jungkook cooks dinner for them and waits for Mr. Park to return from the office and then they both would leave for the hospital. Jungkook would stay back and Mrs. Park would return with Mr. Park and everything repeats the next day, with a different friend coming in the morning with breakfast.

And now here he was going to the hospital once again with the dinner he prepared. He cannot wait for things to go back to normal and for Taehyung to become completely healthy. As much as he loves spending time with Taehyung, this is not exactly how he wants to spend time. He misses college, he misses his friends and he misses their lunchtime. He misses going on bike rides and dates.

Thinking of dates makes him feel a sense of longing. The last date he had with Taehyung was the best and the worst day of his life, but still he longs for that day. He would give anything to go back to that day. Now the only highlight of his day is when he gets to go to the hospital and see Taehyung.

Jungkook rushed inside, not even waiting for Mr. Park to get out of the car as soon as they reached their destination. Taehyung had been whining for the past past hour giving a headache to Mrs. Park, who couldn't wait for her husband to come so she can finally leave.



"Yah, Kim Taehyung if you ask me one more time what time it is, I'm going to smack your head. They'll get here when they get here. So stop whining. You're giving me a headache." Mrs. Park said, scolding her son who was repeatedly asking her the time.

"But Eomma, It's la..." Tahyung shut his mouth when he saw an angry Mrs. Park glaring at him. Taehyung pouted and looked towards the door waiting for his bunny. Just like Jungkook, Taehyung also spends an entire day counting seconds till they could see each other.

Taehyung's face lit up like a 1000 volt bulb, when the door opened revealing the person he was waiting to see.

"Baby, you came." Taehyung said, smiling widely, while Mrs. Park shook her head in disbelief.

"Why did you come so late? I was so bored you know." Taehyung said, making Jungkook chuckle at his boyfriend's tantrum. He was barely 10 minutes late.

"Yah, what the hell do you mean by 'You were bored', then what about me? I had to put up with your constant whining and complaining every 10 second. I don't know how Jungkook handles your whiny ass." Mrs. Park scolded, making Taehyung pout.

"What's going on here? And Kookie, don't run off like that next time. Taehyung is not going anywhere and you're not supposed to put too much pressure on your feet for a couple more days." Mr. Park said, admonishing the younger, while Jungkook looked down feeling guilty.

"Kookie, why did you run, baby? You know you're health is more important to me. I could wait for a few minutes extra, you don't have to run for that." Taehyung said, feeling upset that he once again caused Jungkook pain.

"Hyung, it's not like that and I'm completely fine now. My feet don't hurt even a bit, I swear. But still I'm sorry for running away like that. I shouldn't have done that. I'm sorry Uncle."

"It's alright Kookie, I'm not angry about that. I was just worried. Now leave all that, what were you all talking about before I came?" Mr. Park asked, turning his attention towards his wife.

"Don't even get me started on that Yeobo. Thank God, you came or else I would've gone crazy with this son of yours. He had been eating my head asking me what the time is every 10 seconds. Now that you're here, let's leave. I can't wait for him to get discharged." Mrs. Park said, collecting her bag and dragging her husband out of the room who was complaining about not seeing his son properly.

"You're really mean hyung. Why do you trouble aunty so much?" Jungkook scolded the elder.

"Aish Kookie, she is just exaggerating. You know I'm a good boy." Taehyung said, with the most innocent expression he could muster and just like that Jungkook melted.

"Now come here and hug me." Taehyung demanded cutely and who was Jungkook to say no.

Jungkook carefully laid down on the bed next to Taehyung, hugging him lightly, making sure not to hurt his wounds. He still remembers the first time he had seen the stab wound on Taehyung's stomach when the nurse was dressing his wound. He had cried for an entire hour, before Taehyung had managed to calm him down. He still shivers at the memory.

"What is my bunny thinking?" Taehyung asked, caressing his hair.

"Nothing in particular hyung. I missed you today." Jungkook said burying his face in his neck.

"Just today?" Taehyung teased.

"Hyunggg... you know what I mean."

"I was just teasing you my bunny and I missed you too. A lot."

"Hyung, will you go to your apartment after getting discharged or will you come home?"

"I haven't really thought about it, bun. Why do you ask?"

"Well if you go to your apartment then who'll take care of you, but if you'll come home then I'll be there to take care of you." Jungkook said, explaining his logic.

"Oh so my bunny wants me to come home huh? Then it's decided I'll stay at home till I recover."

"Why only till you recover? Why can't you stay even after you recover?"

"Because I have my own apartment and as much as I love being home, I started living on my own for a reason and you know that reason, don't you bun?"

"Then take me with you. I'll also live with you in your apartment."

"My baby, nothing in the world would make me happier than to have you with me in my home. You know that. But if I do that mom & dad would be sad. I've seen how much they both have come to love you in such a short amount of time. Mom is happy to have someone in the house once again, whom she could pamper and spoil. And you too deserve to experience parent's love which you never got. And about us then we have our entire lives to be together." Taehyung said, making Jungkook emotional.

Jungkook too has come to love and respect both Mr & Mrs. Park like his own parents and he would love to stay in their home.

"How did I get so lucky, hyung? Sometimes it scares me, that all of this is a dream and it'll all be over when I wake up." Jungkook said, tearing up.

"It's not a dream bun, it's your reality, so don't be scared just be happy always and that's all I want." Taehyung said, hugging his bunny closer to him.

"You know hyung I never thought that I'd ever get to feel parent's love, but just in a few days they have made me feel loved more than I have felt in my entire life. The last time I felt a parent's love was when I was 5 when my mother was still alive, but to be honest I don't have many memories of her and over time I started to forget what it felt like to be loved and then you came into my life and changed it completely. You filled my life with love, you made me feel that I'm worthy of being loved and to be honest I would've been happy with just you, but I got an entire family through you and I couldn't be more happy." Jungkook said, feeling emotional.

Taehyung too was emotional when Jungkook said that. He understands better than anyone what it feels to lose your parents and to think you'll never receive their love again. He was lucky to get that love once again in his life and that's why he wanted the younger to stay with his parents. Because he knew his parents would be able to give Jungkook the love that he needs and fill that hole in his heart that was created by the lack of a parental figure in his life and as much as Taehyung loves him, he knows even his love won't be able to fill that emptiness in the younger's heart.

Taehyung had never liked Mr. Jeon even when he didn't know he was Jungkook's father and after knowing that he is Jungkook's father, he hated the man even more. His friend's had brought him up to speed about everything that had happened with Mr. Jeon and he was furious to know that he tried to take Jungkook away from him once again. If it wasn't for the fact that he couldn't even move his body, he would've marched right over to his house and punched him on his face.

The only reason he kept quiet and didn't speak about it was because of Jungkook. He knows how much the younger longs for his father to notice him, to love him and to pay attention to him even after everything he did to Jungkook. He still expects his father to suddenly show up at his door and accept him. This was one of the reasons why Taehyung wanted Jungkook to stay with his parents.

He wanted the younger to see what a real parent's love looks like, that a parent's love is unconditional. He wants Jungkook to see that the love and acceptance that comes with conditions will cease to exist the moment you fail to meet those conditions. And all you'll be left with is a heart ache. Taehyung would've honestly begged on his knees in front of Mr. Jeon, if he really thought that the man loves Jungkook, that he would accept his son's love if Taehyung apologized to him, but he knew better. Mr. Jeon's ego would never let him accept Taehyung, so he just let it be. He doesn't need his blessings or permission anyway.

"Why are you so silent, hyung?" Jungkook asked, after a long silence.

"Nothing baby, just enjoying your company." Taehyung said, grinning.

"You and your cheesiness hyung. How do you always come up with these cheesy dialogues?"

"It's a talent baby that I myself didn't know I possessed until a certain bunny boy came into my life and unearthed this hidden talent of mine." Taehyung said, in all seriousness, making Jungkook burst out in laughter.

"Oh god, I can't with you hyung. You're impossible." Jungkook said, trying to control his laughter.

"Always laugh like this bun. You look more beautiful when you laugh." Taehyung said, making Jungkook blush and look down.

Taehyung lifted up his chin gently and slightly leaned forward. Jungkook closed his eyes, feeling Taehyung's breath on his face. Their lips were just a hair width away when Jungkook's stomach growled loudly, making them come out of their daze. Now it was Taehyung's turn to burst into laughter, while Jungkook was embarrassed.

"Looks like my bunny's stomach is asking for food." Jungkook whined even more hearing Taehyung teasing him.

"Ok ok, I won't tease you anymore. Why don't we eat now since it's dinner time anyway?" Taehyung asked. Jungkook nodded, getting out of the bed.

He took out the tiffin boxes from the bag and started arranging everything, while Taehyung patiently waited. Jugkook brought over two plates with food before adjusting the bed to a sitting position. He had prepared just some simple rice with chicken broth, since Taehyung is not allowed to eat anything too spicy or heavy till his injuries are completely healed. And Jungkook too eat the same food since he doesn't want to make his boyfriend feel left out.

Jungkook scooped some rice and broth using a spoon and started feeding Taehyung, while Taehyung was feeding Jungkook. Soon they were done with the dinner and Jungkook wiped Taehyung's face with a wet towel before giving him his medicines. Taehyung was done with the whole hospital. He hated the medicines and the bland food. Although he loves Jungkook's cooking, he would be happy not to eat these bland foods anymore and more than anything he hates being idle.

Just like Jungkook, he too misses college, hanging out with his friends and playing basketball. He also wants to keep the promise he made the younger on their last date, to take him out on more dates and eat all the street food out there. He looks at Jungkook who was cleaning away their dinner plates and putting everything away.

"Kookie, don't you miss going to college? You've already missed an entire week of college, and I don't want you to miss your studies more because of me. I'm alright now and my injuries are also healing well, so you don't have to be with me all the time." Taehyung said, making Jungkook stop his movements.

"Why hyung, don't you want me here?" Jungkook asked, feeling sad thinking that his hyung doesn't want him here.

"Do you really think that bun, that i don't want to see you everyday? You have no idea how much I miss you when you're not in front of me. I count every minute and second waiting to see you again."

"Then why did you ask me to go back to college? Don't you think I miss you just as much as you? And do you think I'd be able to concentrate on my classes when my mind would be here with you?"

"I'm sorry bun, I didn't say that to make you sad. I just didn't want you to miss any more classes because you're busy taking care of me. But if you don't want to go, then I won't force you. Now, don't be upset my sweet bunny and come and cuddle me." Taehyung said, making cute faces.

"Sometimes I wonder who is the elder between the two of us?" Jungkook said, getting into bed once again. Taehyung didn't waste any time to pull his lover to his chest. It didn't take much time for Taehyung to fall asleep due to his medicines, but Jungkook was still wide awake.

He traced his boyfriend's features in the dark, smiling contently. This is his favorite time of the day, when he gets to stare at his boyfriend's handsome face as much as he wants. It's not like he can't stare at him when Taehyung's awake, but then he would have to endure his endless teasing, making him all shy and embarrassed. So he takes advantage of the dark. It wasn't long before Jungkook's eyes started getting heavy and he too fell asleep in his lover's embrace, a smile adorning both their faces.

Days passed in the blink of an eye and before anyone knew, it was already the day of Taehyung's discharge. And Jungkook was the most excited out of everyone. As decided previously, Taehyung was going home instead of his apartment, until he gets the all clear from the doctor. His friends and family had already arranged a small welcome home party as a surprise for Taehyung, so none of the Bangtans came to the hospital today.

"Are we done yet? What's taking so long?" Taehyung whined, for the 100th time. He was already discharged, but there was still some paperworks that needed to be taken care of, but Taehyung was getting impatient to leave.

"Hyung, it's almost done. Uncle has gone to take care of all the formalities. Once he comes back, we can leave. Just wait a little bit more." Jungkook said, trying to calm his impatient lover.

"I still can't believe that my stupid friends didn't come today even after knowing that I'm getting discharged, not even that shorty came and he calls me his soulmate. Hmph, some soulmate he is." Taehyung said, upset that nobody came to see him.

Jungkook bit his lips, not knowing what to say. He was bad at lying, so he kept quiet, praying that Mr.Park would come soon and his prayers were answered when he spotted Mr.Park walk towards them. He thanked all the god's above for sending him at the right time.

"Hey kiddos, let's go, we're done here." Mr.Park said, going towards Taehyung to help him, while Jungkook followed behind with their bags. Throughout the way Taehyung was pouting and complaining and by the end of it both Mr.Park and Jungkook were done with him.

"Why is it so dark in here and where is mom?" Taehyung asked, walking into his home while Mr.Park and Jungkook supported him from both sides. No sooner had the question escaped his lips than a chorus of yelling were heard making him flinch.

"SURPRISE"
