{Day 7}

It was day two of their cleaning and organizing and things have gone well in the past few hours. their task has taken longer than expected, now that it's the next day.

The Taekook duo was currently moving onto the last room, Jungkook's room after finishing Taehyung's. Taehyung let Jungkook decide where things would go for the most part; he would be the one to memorize it anyway.

"Hey, Kook," Taehyung called as he rummaged through a cabinet.

"Huh?"

"I found something, wanna see?"

Jungkook made his way to where he heard Taehyung's voice.

"It's a music box, Kook. It s what I lost years ago."

Taehyung handed him the small wooden box that instantly reminded him of his childhood. Jungkook ran his fingers over it, feeling the nobs and the gears inside along with the design on the outside. From what he could tell, it was sturdy, with something printed on the front and sides.

This must've meant a lot to Tae... I could hear it in his voice.

"I'm guessing this music box meant a lot to you right?" Jungkook asked curiously.

"Well, yeah," Taehyung admitted. "How'd you know?

🎶🎶🎶(now)

Jungkook ignored the question and instead, started to crank the handle of the music box. A few notes rung in the air, loud and clear, not really sounding like a pattern, but Jungkook kept cranking until he could make out a melody.

And he knew exactly what the song was.

You are my sunshine~ My only sunshine~

Jungkook imagined the lyrics in his head. What Taehyung didn't know, was that Jungkook also had a connection to this song too. It made him happy during all those times he spent alone in his room.

Jungkook closed his eyes, focusing on the tune the music box gave out. he couldn't help but start humming the melody too.

You make me happy; When skies are grey~

Meanwhile, Taehyung had stopped what he was doing, just sitting on the ground listening to the song being played. His eyes glanced at Jungkook; seeing him so immersed in the music, even humming along...

"My father gifted that to me," he mumbled.

Jungkook slowly opened his eyes, his hand still cranking at a steady pace.

"I figured," he mumbles. "This song brings back memories, not gonna lie."

"Me too Kook. I never knew you to have connections to this song."

Jungkook shrugged and continued to spin the handle. The melody turning softer and slower as it eventually came to an end. Still, the melody stayed in Jungkook's mind, calming him maybe even more than he already was.

"Kook, do you want it? The music box?" Taehyung asked.

"But... isn't it yours? I thought you'd want to keep it since it was a special gift."

"I know, but ever since I've lost it, I just kinda forgot about it. it wasn't as important to me anymore. And I know it might help you feel better at times so..."

Jungkook looked down at the tiny square in his hands. "Well, I do like it a lot. I'll take it." he smiled.

Taehyung smiled too. "We'll find a place to put that later, let's continue organizing."

-<~><~><~>-

Thirty minutes later, the boys sat collapsed onto the bed in Jungkook's room. It was tiring but they were both satisfied with the result. Everything was organized and clean, something the house definitely didn't look like before.

"What time is it tae?" Jungkook asked as he sat up. "You said I have a session with Namjoon at around lunch?"

Jungkook didn't notice it but immediately after he asked, Taehyung bit back a gasp, widening his eyes as he checked the time.

"It's about twelve! He should be here... shit, I forgot..."

"Don't worry, Tae, it's just gonna be like last time, right?" He questioned, not so sure himself.

Taehyung huffed and pulled Jungkook up. "Change out of your pajamas, Kook. We're going out today."

Jungkook froze. "What?"

"I read Namjoon's email. he said that we're gonna take a stroll in the neighborhood. You're gonna learn the streets and how to get around obstacles and stuff." Taehyung elaborated.

"Oh, o-okay."

This time, Jungkook was feeling less hesitant about going out. Maybe it was because he knew Namjoon and Taehyung would be with him. But it could be that he was slowly trusting them both and what they say.

He finally scurried off to find some regular clothes. Luckily Taehyung had organized the clothes he lent to him inside the drawers so it wasn't that hard to pick out an outfit despite not being able to see much of the colors.

Jungkook grabbed the sparkliest thing he could see since the light reflecting off of the material was the most he could make out. He changed carefully, making sure to feel for the tag sewn on the back to get the sides right.

He stepped outside and called for Taehyung. "Tae, where are you?"

Jungkook heard Taehyung's bedroom door open. "I'm here." He paused before hesitantly grabbing Jungkook's hand. "Let's go to the front, Namjoon should be here by now."

Jungkook blushed at the sudden contact but acted like it didn't affect him as they both made their way to the living room.

As if on cue, a knock landed on the door. "Kook do you want to come with me or should I get it?" Taehyung asked.

"I-I'll come with." Jungkook stuttered.

Once again, Taehyung's hand is attached to Jungkook's, and before Jungkook could come to his senses, they were already at the door and Taehyung had already opened it. There wasn't any time to think of how soft Taehyung's hands are...

Jungkook politely greeted Namjoon, hoping his smile didn't look awkward. "Hello, Mr. Kim."

Namjoon sighed. "Oh Jungkook, I've said this before, you can call me Namjoon Hyung, there's no need to be so formal you know."

Jungkook quickly apologized, not realizing he was using Mr. Kim again, and mentally slapped himself. He'd agree if someone said he was too kind for his own good.

Jungkook's thoughts were interrupted when Namjoon continued speaking. alright, "I'm assuming that you have a good idea of what we're doing today. Are we ready to go out?"

They both nodded.

-<~><~><~>-

Jungkook tried his best to focus on his actions, his ears pinned on the noise around, and the voices from Taehyung and Namjoon encouraging him. So far, they've only done some walking and avoiding the things that would be on the ground. 'We' as in Namjoon and Jungkook; Taehyung was instructed to not interfere but was allowed to talk, though he didn't mind.

Namjoon was taking things a bit slower since Jungkook's first session had been packed with information; he just needed to review his skills and he'll see what to do next.

Namjoon took his time explaining what was in the area, occasionally asking Jungkook questions like "How long do you think we walked? "or "Did you notice what direction we went in?"

"Having a good sense of direction is important when you're traveling like this," he explained. "Not only can it help you memorize the area, but you can also find your way easier if you're ever lost."

Jungkook hummed quietly, still focused on his walking. Once Namjoon thought Jungkook was doing great with everything he taught him, Namjoon stopped at the curb, ready for the next challenge, test- whatever you call it... activity, yes, that.

Jungkook felt the curb too, and he immediately knew what was going to happen. His breath hitched in his throat.

"We-we're crossing the street?"

He heard a yep from Namjoon, and gulped, trying to hide his nervousness. Namjoon already saw the look on his face, and he wasn't surprised.

"Jungkook I know you're nervous, probably wondering why this is happening so soon, right?" namjoon asked softly. A tiny nod confirmed that. "Well, first of all, this is one of the many other skills you're gonna learn, and it isn't going to be easy to try something new. I'm teaching you something that will help you in the future so you should be willing to try it."

Another tiny nod.

"You shouldn't feel worried or scared because I'll be right next to you, Taehyung is standing close to you too, you're gonna be fine, and if it makes you feel better, there aren't any people around."

Two tiny nods.

Namjoon had his hand on Jungkook's shoulder for reassurance, and Taehyung had come up closer to him, he could feel it.

"O-okay... I-I guess it isn't too hard," Jungkook mutters. That made Taehyung and Namjoon smile.

"Great!" Namjoon smiles, "It won't be difficult trust me. Before you even consider crossing the street, you need to listen to the traffic sounds and which way they're going, in our case, do you hear any cars Jungkook?"

"No," he replied.

"That means you can cross," Namjoon says. Jungkook hesitated, trying to look around him for any more visual clues.

Nnamjoon noticed Taehyung's fidgeting, so he tried something else. "Would it help if Taehyung guides you, Jungkook? I wouldn't mind it."

"Y-yes," Jungkook slightly blushed.

Namjoon might've noticed how we're physically close to each other... oh gosh...

With a smile, Taehyung walked closer to Jungkook, letting him hold his elbow.That made Jungkook feel a bit better, getting enough courage to step down from the curb. With that start, Jungkook couldn't go back, so he kept going, feeling for the curb on the other side before stepping up.

What looked like a small task was such a big accomplishment to him, and Taehyung was so proud too.

Maybe it was Namjoon's soft talk that made him do it... maybe it was Taehyung being next to him, Jungkook wasn't sure. He was focused on the compliments and praise he was receiving from both of them. It made Jungkook smile a big, genuine smile he hadn't shown in quite some time.

Maybe it won't be so difficult...

I just need to remember what Namjoon said... something about being willing to do something...

He sounds so smart... I don't really remember much of what he said.

oh well... whatever he said got me in the right mindset supposedly..

(A/N): not my best selection of music, but I'm just testing things out n stuff (ˇˇ・ゞ) it's optional n e ways alright I'll get going *yeet*
