Jungkook gently took Taehyung's hand, leading him into their new home.
As they stepped inside, Taehyung’s eyes widened in amazement, taking in every detail of the beautifully designed space. He remembered mentioning to Jungkook his vision for their future home, how he wanted each room to feel warm and welcoming, filled with small touches of nature and cozy aesthetics.
And Jungkook had done exactly that.. each room was arranged perfectly, as if he’d crafted each detail from Taehyung’s dreams.
Moving up the stairs, Jungkook guided Taehyung to a special room, his fingers wrapped reassuringly around Taehyung’s hand.
When they entered, Taehyung’s breath caught. His paintings, from landscapes he’d painted in moments of peace to more abstract expressions from times of sadness, hung gracefully on the walls.
An easel with a fresh canvas awaited him by the window, where sunlight poured in, creating a soft glow across the room. It was as if Jungkook had built him a sanctuary.. a place to express himself freely, where he could pour his heart out without a single worry.
Overwhelmed with emotion, Taehyung turned to Jungkook, tears filling his eyes.
“Jungkook,” he began, his voice soft yet filled with sincerity, “I don’t think you understand just how much this means to me. You’ve made every dream of mine come true.. more than I ever thought possible. I’m so lucky, so unbelievably lucky, to have you in my life.”
Jungkook moved closer, brushing a tear from Taehyung’s cheek, his own gaze tender.
“You deserve all of this and more, Tae,” he whispered, his voice filled with warmth.
He leaned in, and their lips met in a soft, loving kiss, one that held every unspoken promise between them. As they pulled away, they rested their foreheads together, and Taehyung smiled, feeling truly at home.. with Jungkook by his side, in the place they’d created together.
~
As they stood together, soaking in the warmth and love that filled every corner of their new home, Jungkook took Taehyung’s hand, guiding him to the cozy living room where a large couch awaited, draped in soft blankets.
They sank into it together, leaning back as Jungkook wrapped his arm around Taehyung’s shoulders, pulling him close. Taehyung rested his head on Jungkook's chest, listening to the steady beat of his heart.. a comforting rhythm that had become his sanctuary over the years.
Jungkook reached over, gently stroking Taehyung’s hair, his fingers threading through the soft strands.
“You know,” he murmured, his voice quiet but filled with warmth, “I used to think I’d never find someone who’d understand me completely. But here you are, and somehow you see me in ways no one else ever has.”
Taehyung smiled, his eyes soft as he looked up at Jungkook. “You made me feel like I could be myself without holding back. I never thought I’d find someone who’d love me for exactly who I am.”
Jungkook’s gaze was intense yet tender as he reached for Taehyung’s hand, bringing it to his lips for a gentle kiss.
“And I never thought I’d be lucky enough to find someone who brings so much light into my life.”
He pulled Taehyung closer, pressing his lips to his forehead, savoring the feeling of having him so near.
They spent the next few hours exploring their home together, laughing and dreaming about the future. In the kitchen, they imagined the meals they’d cook together, and in the living room, they pictured cozy nights spent with blankets and movies.
As they returned to the art room, Taehyung’s eyes sparkled with ideas for new paintings, inspired by the happiness and peace Jungkook brought him.
Finally, as the evening settled in, Jungkook took Taehyung’s hands, holding them gently as he whispered..
“Let’s keep creating moments like this forever, Taehyung. I want to be with you, building our life together.”
Taehyung’s heart swelled, and he nodded, his voice soft.
“Forever sounds perfect, Jungkook.”
They shared a soft, lingering kiss, the quiet of the room filled with the certainty of their love, and the promise of all the beautiful moments they had yet to live together.
~
Hand in hand, Jungkook led Taehyung up to their bedroom, his heart racing with excitement as he watched Taehyung’s face, anticipating his reaction.
The moment they stepped inside, Taehyung’s eyes widened in disbelief. One entire wall was decorated with framed photographs of them.. snapshots from their journey together, each one a memory lovingly preserved.
There were candid photos of them laughing, stolen moments of affection, and even some playful shots Jungkook had secretly taken when Taehyung wasn’t looking.
Taehyung stepped closer, fingers tracing the frames, feeling his heart swell as he took in each precious memory.
“Jungkook,” he whispered, turning back with glassy eyes. “You did all this for us...”
Jungkook came up behind him, wrapping his arms around Taehyung’s waist and resting his chin on Taehyung’s shoulder.
“Every single one of these moments is a piece of my heart,” he murmured.
“I wanted us to always remember how far we’ve come, no matter what happens.”
Taehyung leaned back into Jungkook’s embrace, feeling overwhelmed with gratitude and love.
They stood together in silence, letting the memories on the wall speak for them.
After a few moments, Jungkook gently turned Taehyung to face him and smiled. “Now,” he said, a mischievous glint in his eyes.
“we have another special memory to make tonight. Go get ready.. we have a date.”
Taehyung raised an eyebrow, a mix of surprise and confusion flashing across his face.
“A date? Jungkook, we just moved in; you didn’t have to..”
Jungkook chuckled, placing a soft finger on Taehyung’s lips to quiet him.
“Shh, don’t think about it too much. Just get ready.” He then opened the door to a spacious closet, unveiling rows of clothes.
Taehyung’s mouth fell open as he took in the sight. Not only were his familiar clothes from before hanging neatly in the closet, but alongside them were rows of elegant, expensive outfits he’d never seen.. each carefully chosen with his style in mind. It was everything he could ever want, and more.
“Jungkook..” Taehyung’s voice was filled with awe. He could hardly believe the care and thought Jungkook had put into this.
“I wanted you to have a choice,” Jungkook said softly, his hand resting on Taehyung’s shoulder.
“You’ve given up so much in your life, Tae. This is just a small way of showing you that you deserve everything and many more.”
Overcome with emotion, Taehyung turned to Jungkook and pressed a gentle kiss on his cheek.
“Thank you. For everything,” he whispered, his heart full.
~
In their new bedroom, Taehyung was carefully getting ready, choosing his outfit for the evening Jungkook had so mysteriously planned. As he reached into his coat pocket to adjust something, his fingers brushed against the small, soft velvet box he had hidden away there.
Pausing, he gently pulled it out, feeling the weight of it in his hand as he looked down at the box.
Inside it lay a ring.. a symbol of everything he’d come to feel and want with Jungkook.
Over the past three years, he had witnessed Jungkook work relentlessly, sacrificing his wealthy, comfortable life to prove his love, to build a life with him, and to stand by his side even when things were difficult. Jungkook’s determination, his devotion, and his unshakable love had brought them here, to this moment.
Now, Taehyung wanted to be the one to take the next step.
He had bought the ring not long ago and even started looking into adoption centers. Just the thought of building a family with Jungkook had filled him with joy and nervous excitement.
But first, he wanted to ask Jungkook for something that went beyond all their dreams..
to be with him forever.
Feeling his heart race, Taehyung took out his phone and quickly dialed Jimin’s number, hoping his cousin would help calm his nerves.
After a few rings, Jimin picked up.
“Taehyung! How’s the big night going?”
Taehyung’s voice wavered as he responded, “Minnie... I.. I’m so nervous. I don’t even know if I can go through with this. What if.. what if it’s too much? What if he’s not ready?”
Jimin chuckled softly on the other end, sensing the excitement in Taehyung’s voice.
“Come on, Tae. You know Jungkook better than anyone. That man loves you. He’d go to the ends of the earth for you. Proposing is just the next step in what you both already share.”
“But.. he’s already done so much for me. He’s worked so hard, and I don’t want him to feel like I’m asking for even more.”
“Taehyung.. Tae listen,” Jimin replied gently, “you’re not asking for more. You’re giving him something too. You’re giving him the rest of your life, and he’ll be over the moon. Trust me, he’s ready for this, just as much as you are.”
Taehyung took a steadying breath, Jimin’s words filling him with the courage he needed.
“Thank you, Jimin. I don’t know what I’d do without you. I.. I’m going to do it.”
“Go make him the happiest man alive,” Jimin encouraged, a smile evident in his voice. “And call me after. I want all the details.”
After they hung up, Taehyung closed his eyes for a moment, clutching the velvet box tightly.
With a deep breath, he opened his eyes, more certain than ever. Tonight, he would ask Jungkook to marry him.
Little did he know that, in the other room, Jungkook was also preparing for the very same moment.
~
As they both finished getting ready, Taehyung stepped out of the bedroom just as Jungkook emerged from the other side of the hallway. The moment their eyes met, time seemed to stand still.
Taehyung looked up, his breath catching as he took in the sight of Jungkook. Dressed in a perfectly tailored suit that accentuated his broad shoulders and lean form, Jungkook exuded a powerful aura, the intensity in his dark eyes drawing Taehyung in completely.
His hair was styled back, a few loose strands falling just enough to give him an effortlessly captivating look. Jungkook looked like he could command any room, his handsome features highlighted by the soft evening light. He was, in every sense, breathtaking.
And Jungkook, for his part, couldn’t look away from Taehyung. Taehyung was dressed elegantly, but it was more than the clothes.. he radiated a quiet, ethereal beauty that had Jungkook utterly mesmerized.
His skin glowed, his soft hair framing his face perfectly, and his eyes held a gentle sparkle, full of warmth and love. In that moment, Taehyung seemed almost otherworldly, a vision of grace and charm that left Jungkook’s heart pounding.
For a few precious seconds, they simply stood there, lost in each other’s gaze. A soft smile tugged at the corners of Taehyung’s lips, and Jungkook’s eyes softened, his expression turning tender.
There was no need for words.. in their eyes, they could see the love, the admiration, and the endless promises they both held for each other.
“You.. look like a dream,” Jungkook finally murmured, his voice low and full of admiration.
Taehyung blushed, feeling his heart race. “And you look.. impossibly handsome.”
They shared a soft, knowing smile, both feeling the weight of this special night. With a gentle nod, Jungkook extended his arm to Taehyung, who took it gladly, leaning into him as they walked out together, ready for the beautiful night that awaited them.
~
As they stepped into the car, Jungkook reached over, giving Taehyung's hand a gentle squeeze. The short drive felt like it held a weight of excitement, a quiet anticipation neither could ignore.
When they reached the restaurant, Taehyung’s eyes widened, taking in the whole scene. Jungkook had reserved the entire place, and as they walked up to the rooftop, the warm glow of candles and the open night sky enveloped them. Soft music played in the background, and the subtle scent of roses filled the air.
Jungkook led him to the beautifully set table, where they shared shy smiles, each secretly harboring a proposal in mind.
They ordered their meal, and though they tried to focus on their food, the nervous energy between them made each glance feel like a hidden promise. Jungkook felt the urge to bring up their future, but a part of him wanted to wait, savor the moment a little longer, as if gathering his courage.
Then, after a quiet pause, Taehyung suddenly stood, crossing to Jungkook’s side and reaching out a hand.
Confused but intrigued, Jungkook took it. Hand in hand, they walked to the edge of the rooftop, where the city’s lights stretched far beyond them.
Jungkook thought Taehyung wanted a romantic view, perhaps a quiet moment together under the stars. But as they stood there in silence, Taehyung turned to him, his expression serious and loving.
“Jungkook,” Taehyung began, his voice soft but clear, “I.. I need to tell you something.”
He took a steadying breath, looking deep into Jungkook’s eyes. “You’ve been my strength in so many ways. You’ve sacrificed so much just to be with me, given up your life of comfort and security, and you’ve built this whole new life alongside me. I don’t think I could ever tell you how much that means.”
Jungkook’s heart began to pound, each word embedding itself deeper.
“You’ve taught me so much,” Taehyung continued, his voice trembling slightly.
“How to love fearlessly, how to trust someone with my whole heart. And with you, every moment feels complete. You make me feel.. like I’m home.”
His eyes shimmered with emotion as he added, “I’m so lucky to have you, Jungkook.”
Before Jungkook could fully process his words, Taehyung leaned in, capturing his lips in a tender kiss that made time itself seem to stop.
When they pulled back, Taehyung’s gaze held a depth of sincerity and love.
In a whisper, he asked..
“Will you marry me, Jeon Jungkook?”
Jungkook's eyes went wide with shock, his breath catching as he processed Taehyung's words. He felt the world around him melt away, leaving only Taehyung standing before him, vulnerable and hopeful. Emotions overwhelmed him, and before he could stop himself, a tear slipped down his cheek.
He wrapped Taehyung in a tight embrace, pulling him close, his heart racing with joy. Leaning in, he kissed Taehyung deeply, pouring his love and gratitude into that single moment.
As they pulled back, Jungkook fumbled in his pocket, his hand shaking slightly. He took out a small velvet box and looked at Taehyung, who now stood frozen in his own surprise.
"Taehyung," Jungkook began, his voice thick with emotion.
"You.. you beat me to it." He laughed softly, feeling his heart swell with pride and love.
“You have no idea how much you mean to me. From the moment I met you, the world’s expectations, society’s opinions..none of it mattered anymore. You showed me what it’s like to stand strong, to take on challenges I never thought I could.”
Jungkook took a steadying breath, his gaze filled with unwavering love.
"You taught me that life can be tough, but with the right person by your side, you can get through anything. You've given me a purpose, Taehyung. You've given me a future I never thought I'd have."
He let go of Taehyung’s hand only to kneel down on one knee, his own small box open, revealing a beautiful ring that sparkled in the rooftop’s candlelight.
Taehyung’s hands flew to his mouth, eyes brimming with tears as he looked down at Jungkook.
Jungkook held his gaze, his heart in his eyes, and asked..
“So, will you marry me, Kim Taehyung?”
"Yes, of course i will, my love."
