taehyung had awoken up realizing that he had fallen asleep, last thing he had remembered was jungkook massaging his hair and it was too comfortable not to fall asleep.
he wanted to doze off for a bit but woke up remembering his parents and friends were already with them.
the brunette freshened up a bit before heading downstairs. jungkook was quick to spot him and meeting him with a soft peck on the lips.
"how's your sleep, my love?" he asked but taehyung was too stunned and busy taking in his husband's appearance - his hair was now back to its usual dark colour and tied up in a man bun.
"i'm not dreaming am i?" taehyung mumbled, a hand lightly tapping his cheek making the older laugh. "or have i been sleeping that long?"
"no, baby. you're not dreaming" jungkook confirms and gives the younger a peck on the lips finding him too adorable. "and yes, you've slept the whole afternoon" he adds, pressing another soft kiss on the tip of the brunette's nose.
taehyung was basically starring at his husband. his man looked very attractive and sexy.
"you look... handsome" he blurts, eyes still fixated on the older taking in every feature.
"told you he'd be drooling" they hear jimin comments making the brunette to snap out of his tranced state, cheeks instantly turning warm and a pink shade just noticing the other's presence in the room. "you're welcome" he adds giving jungkook a proud smirk and wink towards taehyung.
jungkook had actually been contemplating if he should dye his hair back to his usual dark colour and had asked for jimin's opinion which the younger definitely encouraged him to do so.
truth is, jimin knows how taehyung had always found jungkook dreamy with his dark hair tied in a man bun and tattoos. to be fair, jungkook does really look good with it.
"you like it?" jungkook asked the brunette as his opinion mattered the most to him. it's been a while since he changed his look.
taehyung shyly nods with a wide smile on his lips. "i love it" he mumbled.
well, he couldn't actually tell him about all the other thoughts running through his head nd questioning himself if he had always been this horny with just seeing his mouth - watering husband like this.
or maybe it was the pregnancy hormones already kicking in.
the brunette resorted hiding in his husband's chest when jimin made a teasing puking sound. "too cheesy for my eyes" he comments and playfully covered his eyes. "at least i'm sure someone's going to have fun tonight" he adds with a mischievous smirk that had the brunette's eyes wide, cheeks blushing furiously.
"jiminie!" taehyung gasped with the said man and jungkook chuckling along.
minsoo soon appeared informing them that the dinner preparations is almost ready with jungkook asking her to inform his parents who were still resting in their room. jiyeon also arrived informing jungkook about the arrival of the supplies he had requested.
"i had the table arranged outside in the veranda." jungkook informs the brunette. "we can also gather everyone now so they can prepare for dinner" he adds turning to jimin.
"alrighty, i'll go scream by the shore to call for yoongi and jin-hyung" jimin states making for jungkook to chuckle and waves him off.
jin and yoongi went out to go fishing while namjoon was by the shore reading a book with jinwoo and hoseok going for a walk.
"they're probably by the north side of the beach, i told them there's a shaded spot they can relax at" jungkook informs pertaining to jinwoo and hoseok's whereabouts.
"i'll go get them while you do your own business" taehyung offers knowing jungkook still has to attend with whatever supplies had arrived and was quick out of his hold and out the door before jungkook can even react leaving the older to sigh.
"jiyeon" jungkook turns to his secretary who already understood without having to be told what to do. she gave the ceo a small nod before informing security to keep an eye on the young master taehyung.
the brunette happily skips down to the beach in search for jinwoo and hoseok, smiling and looking up seeing the sky now painted with the shades of pink and purple as the sun starts to set.
"so pretty..." he mumbled.
he also spotted jimin and couldn't help but laugh as he was actually screaming to get yoongi and jin's attention who were both a bit far out in the sea.
he indeed soon found jinwoo and hoseok by the shaded spot overlooking the sea. the soft breeze and waves crashing making him to quietly approach the couple without them noticing.
although, he halts in his steps when he heard his name being mentioned.
"i... i just feel guilty..." jinwoo says, tucking his head in between his legs as hoseok wraps an comforting arm around his shoulder and pressing a kiss on his temple.
"hey... don't feel that way, i'm sure taehyung wouldn't want you feeling that way too..."
"it's just that... i know it's been years but i can't help but feel guilty about everything... i... i was there with him at the doll shop for all his life and... and i didn't even question him being there, i didn't question why the madam had him display at sixteen... i didn't question if the madam was giving him pills or not... and now his health... it hurts knowing how much he wants to have a child but because of what he had gone through at the doll shop, he may not even be able to bear one... i should've done something to get him out there..."
taehyung was confused hearing all what jinwoo had said before soon realizing what was going on. - jinwoo was worried about him and blaming himself.
after jinwoo had found out that taehyung had fainted a few days ago and despite taehyung reassuring him that it was just all due to lack of rest from work; he didn't quite believe him and had assumed it had something to do with his body's rehabilitation due to the pills. somehow he was feeling guilty since he was the one who had been by taehyung's side at the doll shop - at the time he was taking the pills.
he was there while taehyung was experiencing everything he shouldn't have at that young age but he did... nothing.
"jinwoo... baby..." hoseok says wrapping the younger in his arms who started to sob. "both of you... neither of you should feel responsible or guilty of the circumstances you guys were put in" he mumbled.
both jinwoo and taehyung were just victims of their parents selfishness.
they were conditioned in that doll shop, everything they were thought and had been said it that place was normal. no questions.
it didn't bother them that the young taehyung was with them that time, as for them he was just like and one of them - a doll.
"don't cry anymore..." hoseok comforts pressing a kiss on jinwoo's forehead. "taehyung loves you and i'm sure he wouldn't like seeing you feeling like this - "
"hyung..." the jinseok couple turned their head, startled seeing the brunette holding in his tears.
"taetae - " before jinwoo could say anything further, the brunette had lunged onto him engulfing him in a tight hug and let out a sob with tears flowing down his cheeks.
"hyung... i love you, what are you saying..." taehyung cries, startling jinwoo who was shocked for a second before he let out a small laugh as his own tears fell from his eyes.
this has always been a way of taehyung comforting him. the brunette had always said he isn't the best at giving comforting words so he would offer cuddles and tells jinwoo that he loves him whenever the older was down - and he definitely finds it comforting.
hoseok smiles seeing the two and gave jinwoo a soft caress on the back before deciding to give the two privacy to talk. he went to walk further up just a few distance away just enough to still see the them. he was honestly glad that taehyung appeared as he knew that jinwoo needed this.
"how could you ever feel that way, hyung? my life in the doll shop would've been awful if you weren't beside me" the brunette cries. "you don't know how thankful i am that i met you, hyung. please don't ever feel guilty about anything that had happened in the shop"
jinwoo was full on crying in the brunette's arms. "i... i'm not a special male like you, tae and i could never ever understand the pain you had to go through because of those damn pills... i just wished i could've done something... then maybe your body didn't need to suffer from it..." he says looking at the younger with tear stained eyes.
taehyung couldn't help but cry more hearing the genuine words from his jinwoo hyung and ended up hugging him again.
"i don't blame you for anything, hyung... instead i'm greatful... so greatful you're a part of my life" he mumbled. "you're one of the reasons i had such good memories in that shop... thank you for being with me..."
jinwoo only nods as he sniffles in the brunette's arm. "thank you for being with me too"
the younger hugs jinwoo tighter. "don't worry too much about me, hyungie. i promise you i'm perfectly fine and healthy." he reassures with the older replying with an 'okay, please always stay healthy'.
the three headed back to the main cabin once jinwoo and taehyung had calmed down, hoseok was just glad that the two were able to talk.
he had always admired them for being strong and kind even after all that they had gone through.

"my love" it was jungkook who had met them by the entry way as everyone else was getting ready for dinner. although, it was evident that his lips turned into a frown noticing the brunette's puffy eyes indicating that he had cried.
"i'll see you guys at dinner" taehyung says to the jinseok couple giving jinwoo a hug.
hoseok just gave jungkook a nod knowing at this moment that the dark haired male only had his attention to taehyung.
jungkook gently held the younger's cheek to look at him as soon as the two had left the area. "what happened? are you hurt?" he asked, face turning darker. "did anyone upset you?"
taehyung wraps his arms around the dominant male which the older gladly welcomed. "i'm alright, i'm sorry if i made you worried" he mumbled pressing a ressuring kiss by the older's jaw.
"but you cried" jungkook couldn't help but still point out, still feeling uneasy with the fact that his husband had cried and was even already thinking about asking security as they were supposed to keep an eye on the brunette making sure he was safe.
the brunette pressed a kiss on his lips feeling how tense the older is. "i'm okay, i promise" he started before sharing to jungkook what had happened.
taehyung had ended up tearing up once again, jungkook finding him so adorable as he spoke with a small pout and lightly sniff in his hold. he gently brushed the younger's tears with his thumb and pressed kisses on his forehead.
he soon led them back to their room to get ready for dinner. although, they weren't able to properly change right away as the brunette demanded for some cuddles and more kisses in the process.
the brunette was seated on the vanity with jungkook settled between his legs, lips attached and devouring each other.
"jungkookie..." taehyung moaned as the dominant male gently pulled on his hair, tilting his head and pressed open mouthed kisses on his neck.
jungkook harshly sucked on a spot hearing the brunette's moans, hands gripping tighter on his curved waist that'll surely leave a mark.
"better get dressed, my love... i don't think i'll be able to control myself if you stay like this..." the dominant male mumbled as he pulled away, lustful eyes raking over his husband's exposed body as the younger was only wearing his silk robe pooling loosely around his waist.
taehyung's cheeks were tinted pink under his husband's gaze as he leaned forward and pecks his lips before mumbling a small 'okay'.
jungkook gently placed the younger back down and fixed his robe. "i'll just have a quick shower" he says giving the brunette a kiss on the forehead before disappearing inside their bathroom.
taehyung had a wide smile on his lips as he sat infront of the vanity and seeing the forming marks of the dominant male on his skin.
he soon rummaged through his dresser, cheeks now dusted a light pink when he caught sight of a certain underwear not expecting to see it as jungkook was the one who had packed his clothes - it was the whine coloured thong which he had for awhile now that had a thin lace in the front and just a string on the back which he was already sure that would just disappear in between his ass cheeks.
he starred at it for a second before deciding to just wear it, his cheeks turning warmer knowing how much jungkook liked it when he wears the certain piece.
taehyung was all dressed by the time jungkook had finished his shower and was waiting for him. he had also chosen a casual outfit for jungkook to wear to match his.
"are you ready, my love?" jungkook asks as minsoo had just called for them saying that everything was already prepared in the veranda.
the younger nods as jungkook intertwined their hands and heads out to finally announce taehyung's pregnancy to their friends and family.
*
taehyung had been thinking over on how to announce his pregnancy during dinner. he did have a small plan on surprising their family and guests during dessert time but was still feeling very nervous.
they all were engrossed in small conversations
by the time everyone was done with their meals, the taekook couple joining in once in awhile but taehyung was very much distracted which jungkook was quick to notice.
"whenever you're ready" he says by the brunette's ear, loud enough for only taehyung to hear and pressed a comforting kiss on his temple.
"can you please be the one to start?" taehyung soon speaks, dreading that he'll just end up stuttering.
"are you sure, my love?" jungkook asks wherein the younger gave him a nod.
the dark haired male soon called over for minsoo to have the desssert be served and asked for jiyeon who handed him a folder.
no one has noticed yet but jungkook and taehyung already had a wide smile on their faces as the desserts were brought out to the table but their plates were specifically served with cupcakes.
"these cupcakes are so cute" jinwoo was the first to comment making everyone else turn their attention now on the cupcakes.
each cupcake was uniquely designed; one with a bear, moon and stars, little mittens and shoes. one was even with yellow frosting and decorated to resemble a small rubber duck which was specifically for jimin - basically topped with something supposed to be baby related. an additional touch was a small note rolled up with a white ribbon.
jungkook now stood with a smile on his face, a hand gently holding on to taehyung's gaining everyone's attention.
"taehyung, my love i actually have a small surprise for you" he states turning to a very confused taehyung as he lightly pulled him up to his feet and faced him.
jimin turned to yoongi who only shrugs before looking at jinwoo who also had no idea of what was going on with the namjin couple and older jeons in the same state.
jungkook smiles before leaning forward pressing a kiss on his forehead.
"here you go, my love." jungkook says smiling at the confused brunette as he handed the folder.
"what's this?" taehyung murmurs, hands taking a hold of the folder. cheeks a light hue of pink as everyone's eyes were on them.
"go on, open it." jungkook encouraged him as he slowly flips it open.
he was definitely feeling deja vu remembering how jungkook had surprised him years back with his ownership transfer and certificate of release.
'positive' was the first word taehyung had read as it was in bold, italicized letter before realizing that jungkook had gotten him a proof of a positive pregnancy result.
"jungkookie..." taehyung was tearing up with a wide smile on his face as he looked up at his husband and engulfing him in a tight hug.
"i thought we're getting a surprise" hoseok jokes making everyone else laugh along.
"okay, i'm curious. spill the secret" jimin was the first to comment with jinwoo chuckling at this.
"actually, i do have a surprise. but you'll have to make a guess" the brunette teased as now turned to them with a wide excited smile and holding the positive test result close to his chest making sure no one saw it yet.
"if you're pregnant i'm going to need proof - " jimin jokes but had his mouth hang open as his eyes turned to look at the cupcakes again with jinwoo quick to catch on and looking at taehyung with wide eyes.
"oh, good guess. surprise" taehyung says with a laugh as he turned the paper to show their parents and friends.
"well, that's the shortest guessing game" jungkook adds not knowing what else to say as that was what taehyung's intial plan plus the little handwritten notes he had wrote for each one of them topped on the cupcakes.
jinwoo was in tears as he had a hand on his mouth with hoseok wrapping him in his arms. he wasn't even the one pregnant but the amount of happiness he was feeling was over the moon for taehyung.
"you bitch" jimin basically screamed in excitement while the rest were in a mix emotions of shock and tears.
"baby, that's not how we congratulate. a simple congratulations will suffice" yoongi commented with jimin giving him a glare and a playful roll of his eyes.
taehyung turned to look at their parents who were definitely in a state of shock and very much speechless.
"i'm pregnant" he finally says with tears in his eyes as seokjin went over to him, cupping his tear stained cheeks before engulfing him in a tight hug.
"taebear, i'm so happy for you" seokjin murmurs with namjoon soon joining their family hug.
hyeri and hyunbin also went over to jungkook congratulating him with the lady jeon giving him a hug before going to taehyung.
"taehyung dear, congratulations" hyeri exclaimed. "we're finally having a little taetae and jungkook" she adds making for all of them to nod and agree with wide smiles.
the night ended up with more tears as everyone had teared up with the personal handwritten letter taehyung had topped on the cupcakes for each of them with basically ending the note with a 'surprise i'm pregnant and you're going to be an uncle / grandpa / grandma'.
taehyung couldn't help but go over to his jinwoo hyung who was very much in a pool of tears with jimin joining them as well.
*
"you've been very sneaky, mister jeon" taehyung munbled with jungkook laughing as he pressed a kiss on his cheek pertaining to the positive pregnancy test results that he was able to acquire in a span of hours.
the sun had already set with moon and stars taking place in the sky. the string lights put up and soft slow music being played along with the soft crashing of waves being heard and gentle sea breeze was making it all feel nostalgic for the brunette remembering the almost same scene during their wedding reception and couldn't help but feel the same overwhelming feeling that day knowing jungkook had arranged all this.
taehyung and jungkook along with the yoonmin couple were slow dancing to the tune in their own little bubble.
taehyung has his gaze on his husband with a wide smile on his lips, jungkook's arms secured around his waist.
"to be honest, i thought i wouldn't be able to get the papers in time" jungkook exclaimed with a small laugh. "i had jiyeon fly out to personally to get the papers from doctor tan and have it brought back today."
jungkook contacted the doctor if he can have any test result showing that taehyung was indeed pregnant as they hadn't had any proper tests yet and thankfully the doctor was able to process him the brunette's blood results which he had used to confirm that the younger was indeed pregnant when he was hospitalized a few days ago.
"did you like your surprise?" jungkook murmurs with the younger immediately smiling and letting out a hum.
"i love it very much." the brunette replied as he pressed a kiss on his neck. "we were supposed to surprise our family together but you ended up surprising me as well." he adds.
"anything for you, my love." he replied. "there's no one else i'd share this moment than with you."
and yet again the same words they had spoken during their wedding making them both giggle reminiscing about it, the difference is now they have a little bundle of joy on the way.
