"So, what do you think? Pretty, huh?" Mr. Jeon held his shoulders high in pride as he read the expressions of the young ones who still had their mouths open as they stared at the sight in front of them.

"It's beautiful." Jimin whispered so softly as if his loud voice would shatter it all.

"How did you find this place?" Hoseok asked still staring at the dancing waves.

"We always looked for such places whenever we were tired at work. Brought us peace of mind." Mrs. Jeon came up to her husband's side and he held her in a hug as they looked ahead in amazement.

"We are finally here, honey." He leaned his head on to his wife's as he said.

"It still feels like a dream, don't you think?" Mr. Jeon only chuckled at that.

They all were standing there when a man dressed in all black came up and bowed to them.

"Mr. Jeon?" He asked.

"Yes, that's me."

"I'm Sehun, sir. I'll be your host for the rest of your stay here." Mr. Jeon gave him a nod.

(A/N: Sehun us my bias in EXO)

"Then, right this way, sir." Sehun directed and the elders followed the direction while the boys went in for the luggage.

"Our men will bring that for you, sir. You can leave that here." Namjoon and Jin stopped in their tracks and nodded their heads before following Jungkook's parents. The young ones still looked around even after the others had left and decided to take a stroll before going in. The place was too magnificent to be just left like that.

"We'll come in later. Please, tell the others." Hoseok politely told Sehun who bowed again and left.

"Can you believe this, Tae?" Hoseok exclaimed once they were left alone.

"No."

"Is that a bar?" Jimin pointed towards a huge array of bottles they could see from a distance but it was under the open sky so they couldn't quiet tell if it really could be a bar since they had no idea that such a place could be set up in the open.

"Let's go check it out." Taehyung walked ahead and the others followed soon.

When they reached the area, their eyes bulged out again. It was indeed a bar but a really really really fancy one. It stretched out and curved at the ends in a crescent. The shelves were made of glass and held bottles of various shapes and sizes. The alluring aroma filled the air around it. A line of cupped stools was arranged for sitting and they looked like they were set in order by measuring the area with a ruler. Not one of them was out of line.

The bartender that came to their service wore a crisp white shirt with a black vest that fit to his frame perfectly. His hair were styled in a way that exposed his forehead in a teasing way. The guy looked more like a model than a bartender and the boys just stared at him as if they were looking at a painting.

"I'm Sungjae. How can I help you?" His voice and smile, both were so sweet that it could swoon any heart.

(A/N: Another bias, because why not)

Before the boys could say anything, Jin came up beside them.

"Are you planning on getting drunk right from the get go?" His voice held only amusement.

"We were just looking. Hyung, have you ever seen this many bottles together?" Taehyung pointed towards the bar like a four year old at a carnival, making Jin and Sungjae snicker at his innocence.

"Let's go, you pabo. This place isn't going anywhere. You can come back later. Right now, I need your help." Jin said as he dragged Taehyung with him totally ignoring his protests.

"Are they related?" Sungjae asked Jungkook when the two left, startling the poor boy.

"Um, yes. Brothers." Jungkook answered sternly and looked away. He was never the one to strike up conversations with strangers nor did he like to take part in them. So, he tried to leave the place quickly after Taehyung and Jin left since he was feeling uncomfortable talking to Sungjae. He was waiting for the other two to notice him or leave so he could as well. But Jimin and Hoseok were busy examining the details one by one like experts, disregarding his lack of interest.

"Taehyung, huh?" Sungjae said to himself but Jungkook heard him loud and clear. He could feel his heart race and slight anger building up inside but he couldn't say why. Why would he get angry if someone said Taehyung's name? It didn't make sense.

"Are you his friend?" Sungjae asked Jungkook again and for some reason, Jungkook felt like punching him.

"Yes." His answer came out nonchalant, regardless of what he was feeling.

"You should come here with him tonight. We are serving a special mix tonight. I'm sure you and Taehyung will love it." As Sungjae spoke, every word pierced Jungkook's brain like a needle and when he heard Taehyung's name roll off of his tongue again, Jungkook used all his self control he had to stop himself from climbing up the bar and strangling the guy. He couldn't understand why but every time Sungjae said Taehyung's name, Jungkook felt his blood boil.

"Sure." He faked a smile at the guy he was mentally killing as he answered without even knowing what was said to him. The only thing his mind registered was Taehyung's name. Jungkook tapped Jimin's shoulder when he couldn't take it anymore.

"I'm going inside. You should come, too." Jimin only gave an absentminded nod but Jungkook didn't care as he left anyway. He couldn't stand the sight of the bartender any longer.

-------

Taehyung and Jin were unpacking their luggage when Jungkook came in.

"Oh, Jungkookie! I'm glad you're here. No one is helping me with all this." Jin complained as he opened his arms to display the stuff he had in front of him. Jungkook only nodded as he moved closer to him and started unpacking.

"And what am I doing here? Laying eggs?" Taehyung looked back from the drawer he was putting clothes in and huffed.

"You aren't doing much so it doesn't really count."

Jungkook chuckled at that. His mood started getting better as he listened to Jin and Taehyung bicker like kids while he himself worked silently. Soon he forgot about the bartender, altogether.

-------

The entire family seated themselves outside after taking care of everything and relaxed as they witnessed the most beautiful sunset ever.

"Since we are done with setting up everything, you guys are free to run around." Mr. Jeon announced and all four young boys jumped up instantly.

"FINALLY!" Jimin was the most hyped person among the rest and he couldn't stay put in one spot from the moment they had arrived.

"You sound like you did all the labour work here the entire day, when you actually did nothing." Namjoon pointed out but Jimin only scrunched his nose at him in an attempt of aegyeo making Namjoon speechless with his sudden attack. The older hadn't recovered when Jimin ran away leaving the others laughing at Jimin's cuteness and Namjoon's shock.

Hoseok ran after Jimin and was later followed by Taehyung who dragged Jungkook by his wrist. The sudden contact was unexpected but since they were on the run already, Jungkook didn't get much of a chance to be surprised.

"They are acting like a bunch of kids." Jin chuckled and turned his attention back towards the sky as Namjoon shook his head and did the same.

Four of them roamed around checking out each and everything in extreme details as if they were on a quality checking team.

"Wanna race to the top?" Taehyung asked suddenly getting the others' attention. When they looked over to whatever Taehyung was pointing at, they saw a huge staircase that went up a little and then around a small hill. Without thinking the boys set up in a line and ran on the count of three. Halfway through, they realized their mistake and panted as they tried to make it to the top. By the time the reached the top, their legs were about to break.

"Who.. *pant* who's idea *pant* was this *pant* again?" Jimin was holding his ribs as he spoke in bits.

"This idiot's." Hoseok breathed out pointing at Taehyung who was still not able to speak.

A second later Taehyung's legs gave away and he dragged Jungkook with him as he fell.

"What did you do that for?" Jungkook sat up quickly and brushed his clothes as he distanced himself from Taehyung, subtly.

"Hehe. Sorry." Taehyung only rubbed his neck as he looked away but Jungkook clearly saw the pink dusting his cheeks which, he was convinced, was because of all the running.

"Guys, check it out! It looks awesome from here!" Jimin called onto the others as he moved ahead and towards the edge of the railing and looked ahead. Rest of them joined him and awed at the glorious place. The sun had gone down making the dim lights of the resort shine on the waves giving the appearance of starts on them. It looked so unrealistic that they were left speechless.

In the moment of silent admiration Taehyung moved closer to Jungkook slowly and reached his hand out to the other but stopped himself from doing whatever he was about to do and retreated his hand, putting it in his pocket. Jungkook looked to his side when he felt Taehyung's eyes on him but found the other looking ahead, instead. His heart, however, skipped a beat when he noticed the lack of space between the two of them but decided to stay quiet. If Taehyung hadn't noticed it, he was not going to point it out and look crazy in front of him. So, he turned back ahead and tried to appreciate the beauty in front of him instead of the one beside him. What? He shook his head and got rid of the thought, instantly. He only got the words mixed up in is mind. Nothing big.
