"HOW AM I FEELING? BRUH, YOU'RE THE ONE NAKED IN MY BED.", Taehyung yells, backing away, falling on the floor, and landing on his butt.

Chuckles comes off the younger's lips as he stands up and crouches down in front of his husband. The older looks up with a pout and knitted eyebrows. Jeongguk does nothing but smile as he reaches forward and pecks the other on the lips which takes Taehyung off aback and his eyes widen hysterically.

"Freshen up, I'll be in the kitchen making breakfast.", the raven haired male informs as he ruffles the other's hair and gets up. Just like that Jeongguk is out of the room. Taehyung stare lingers at the door where his husband just existed from. His hand comes to his lips as his fingers trace the place another lips were pressed on.

A groan leaves the blond's lips as he feels the throbbing pain of his head.

"Hell to you life.", Taehyung curses as he stands up and drops on the bed.

He just can't wrap his head around the fact his husband kissed someone else while in the commitment. He sighs. Who is he to control Jeongguk's life anyway.

He stands up and goes in the washroom. The moment he steps in another throbbing pain comes to his head, his head gets dizzy and black dots are the only thing he can see, his legs start to wobble but he catches himself by holding the counter of the sink.

He breaths in and out, trying to calm his escalating pain.

"I'm fine. It's just a hangover.", he mumbles under his breath as he stands straight in front of the mirror. Slowly his vision clears out and allow him to see clearly.

He tilts his head slightly, staring at his own reflection in the mirror. He looks at himself for more than a minute trying to find flaws in himself which caused Jeongguk to look for love in someone else. He looks at his double lid eye, tan skin, and wrinkles at the corners of his lips. He stretches his lips to jut out his teeth. They are crooked and form a strange box shape with help of his lips as he smiles.

Maybe, I'm not enough.

Taehyung shakes his head at his own thoughts and tells himself it will be more rational if he talks this out with Jeongguk. He's an adult after all and he should solve these problems maturely.

~•~•|•|•~•~

Taehyung walks to the kitchen after changing and freshening up. He gave himself a long speech on dealing with this situation properly and not jumping to conclusions.

He sits on the tall stool and clears his throat to inform the other of his presence.

"Hi, Tae. The breakfast will be ready soon.", Jeongguk turns from the stove for couple of seconds to greet Taehyung and goes back to working on the eggs.

A small smile creeps up Taehyung's lips. Yes, what Jeongguk did the previous day hurt him but again this is the same guy, who made him breakfast almost every morning, he's the man who made sure to visit every fashion week, missing out some for work reasons but other than that was always by Taehyung's side. He's the boy who tickled him when the older was having a bad day. He's the man Taehyung fell in love with.

Love?

"Tae?", a voice interrupts his mess of thoughts.

Taehyung simply hums as a reply. Not wanting to word out anything, scared he'll say something he doesn't want to.

"I asked if your head hurts. You drank a lot yesterday.", Jeongguk mumbles the last part, but Taehyung ended up hearing it anyway. An awkward air settles between them.

Jeongguk puts eggs on the plates, sprinkling some spice as he places the plates on the counter and sits himself beside his husband. A queer silence between them before Taehyung speaks up,

"What happened yesterday?"

He can't quite remember what caused him to have a hangover but again he's trying to deny the fact that he drank too much for a pathetic jealousy that was running through his veins wanting to burst out.

"Yoongi found you in the club and brought you over. You had fever so I gave you medicine which made you sleep so yeah.", Jeongguk utters, scratching the back of his neck. It was obvious he was leaving something out.

"Uh, okay.", the older between the two replies, remembering till the part he opens his eyes to meet with Jeongguk's face, who asked if Taehyung was awake or not. Still things are blurry for him, things are clear till the point he was hugging Yoongi. He can remember little snippets of what happened afterwards but can't remember everything for certain.

"That reminds me.", Jeongguk leans forward and presses his forehead softly against Taehyung's. The blond male is taken off aback but does nothing to pull away. Jeongguk leans forward and quickly pecks the other's lips as he moves away to tell the other what he noticed.

"You still have slight fever.", Jeongguk mumbles under his breath, as he scrambles towards the drawers and brings out some Panadol. He fills a cup with water and hands the pills over to Taehyung who was still thinking over the soft kiss.

Taehyung just can't seem to stop thinking about the kiss he witnessed, which causes him to not really appreciate the kisses he's been receiving from his husband. He takes the pill and gulps it down by drinking water after popping the pill in his mouth. He debates himself at one side to talk to Jeongguk about what he saw yesterday or just not do it.

"Jeongguk, I came to your offi-", his words were cut off when the younger's phone rings, indicating that someone is trying to reach him on the phone.

Jeongguks mutters Taehyung a 'sorry' as he attends the call. After a minute he shuts off the phone and looks at Taehyung apologetically.

"I'm sorry Tae but I have to leave.", Jeongguk mumbles, pecking Taehyung on the forehead and leaving the kitchen in a hurry. In his pajamas. With his bed hair.

Taehyung sighs for the umpteenth time. He just wants to make his relationship with Jeongguk clear. He believes the raven haired male must have an explanation for what he did yesterday. He really wants to give the younger a chance but the kiss he witnessed is making him want to take all the kisses he shared with Jeongguk back.

~•~•|•|•~•~

Taehyung walks towards Jeongguk's office second time this week. This time he wasn't going to confess as he planned a day prior but rather came to ask his husband to spend some time with him before he leaves for a fashion week. As they spend time together he will try to talk about their relationship.

This time he wasn't met with the assistant. He shrugged as it was early for office time anyway. He is assured Jeongguk would be here so he didn't call him.

He opens the door and he couldn't help but roll his eyes at the sight. The girl is here standing in front of his husband, apparently they were having a conversation between them.

"Jeongguk."

The said male turns to only widen his eyes, his breath coming out shaky, as if caught in a crime.

"Taehyung-"

"Hello, I'm sorry for interrupting your guys moment but I thought it was necessary to inform my husband about my departure to New York.", he witnesses as the girl's eyes widen at the words, she must've realized Jeongguk is not single.

What an asshole he is

"I'm Taehyung.", the blond introduces, extending his arm towards the woman.

"I'm Aera.", the girl replies, accepting the hand, with a shaken body, shocked.

"It was nice meeting you.", Taehyung says, with an overly sweet smile, after he looks at his husband, who seemed a little jittery. "I don't want to intrude further into your meeting so I'll take my leave."

With that said the blond walks out the office, his expression sore, and filled with anger.

Jeongguk runs after him, halting the man by grasping his wrist.

"Release me.", the older hissed, not wanting to be violent.

"First listen to what I have to say, then I'll let you go.", Jeongguk requests, his grip firm.

"There's nothing left to talk about.", Taehyung replies, turning to face the other male.

"I'm sorry, it wasn't supposed to happen the way it did.", the younger explains, loosening his grip but not letting go.

"Then how was I supposed to find out, Jeongguk. By divorce papers?", the blond questions, frowning. "I understand that our marriage wasn't something we asked for but what we did together was intended. I really don't understand why you led me on. We both agreed on keeping to ourselves, you took the first initiative to change that so why? Why are you kissing another woman? Why did you still continue kissing me? Why did you promise to stay if you were planing to leave anyways?"

As of now tears were rolling down the older's eyes. The younger just stood listening before taking a deep breath.

"It's not like that.", the raven haired male says, stepping forward.

"Then what? Huh, Jeongguk, then what?", the older questions, wiping his cheeks.

"It's all a misunderstanding."

"Why are you still trying to convince me, Jeongguk? Why are you lying? You damn knew I saw you yesterday, you didn't come to erase my concerns, you didn't call me. I still waited till the morning and you still didn't say anything.", Taehyung now was holding his urge to scream, he was beyond angry.

"Please just listen, this won't work out if there is no trust between us.", Jeongguk says walking further closer to the older.

"No, Jeongguk. You broke my trust. Please don't lead people on if you are going to act like this behind their back.", the blond exclaims, placing his palm on the younger's chest to prevent him from leaning in closer.

"You are being very stubborn and not listening, it's not fair to me. I'm trying to explain.", the raven haired male, argues, a little pissed.

"You're too late Jeongguk, very late. When I come back I will arrange the divorce papers. Then enjoy your freedom.", Taehyung spat, backing away from the other.

"Have your way then.", the younger said through his gritted teeth, pulling away from the other.

"Learn to keep your promises, Jeon Jeongguk.", Taehyung whispered against the other's ear before he walked away.
