Jungkook

I can't believe it. I still can't get over the fact that I'm going to be a dad. And the best part of it, Lisa's gonna bear my child.

What more could I ask for?

"You've been smiling since yesterday, Jungkook. It's getting creepy." Lisa said as she combs her hair in front of the whole body mirror beside our bed.

I went to her after buttoning up my shirt. I wrapped my arms around her waist and rested my chin on her shoulder. I look at our reflection in the mirror, back-hugging her tighter.

Damn, we look so good together.

"Can't a future father be happy? Hmm?" I teased.

I heard her chuckle, "Whatever. Let's go. We're already late. They must be waiting for us." She then took my arm and dragged me out of the house.

In just a few minutes, we arrived at Jennie and Taehyung's house. I don't get why they invited us in their anniversary party when they can just celebrate it together. I mean, that's an anniversary. That's a day for two people loving each other, celebrating how long they've been together through and through.

"Lisa!"

And Lisa was immediately snatched from me again by Chaeyoung and Jisoo as soon as we entered the house.

"Kook!" I heard Taehyung calling. I looked back and saw him running down the stairs to give me a bro hug.

"You guys made it!" He smiled at me.

"Yeah, Lisa forced me to. And isn't this party suppose to be you and Jennie only? Why invite us tho? It's not like it's your birthday." I shrugged my shoulders.

"Oh come on! Just think of this as a party for... probably, all the shit we've been through and still kicking. It's my 6th anniversary, bro. Plus, you're wife if pregnant! Isn't that enough reason to celebrate?!" He patted my back.

I smiled, "Fine then. Where's Jennie, by the way? When is this party gonna start anyways? I'm hungry."

"Jennie's taking a long time to dress up. What the hell is wrong with that wo—"

"You called?" Taehyung was cut off when Jennie finally came in view, taking her time walking down the stairs like she's some queen or something.

"Congratulations on your 6th year." I greeted Jennie.

She smiled back at me, "Thanks. Where's Lisa?"

I pointed at the living room where Lisa is a having a casual conversation with Chaeyoung and Jisoo. Jennie didn't waste any time and rushed towards them, leaving me and Taehyung behind.

So is this gonna be an anniversary party or a reunion?

Me and Taehyung just sighed watched the girls enjoy themselves.

Lisa

6:04 pm...

We were finally having a blast at the dining area. We just talked about random stuff changes topic almost every minute.

I looked at Jungkook who is busy playing with Sunjae, Jisoo's little baby boy. He must've felt me staring at him when he raised his head and met my gaze.

He suddenly mouthed, "I love you."

I felt blood rushing up to my cheeks and a sudden heat on my body that caused me to turn my attention away to him. I only heard him chuckle after that.

Psycho.

"Let's gather up! Come on!" We all heard Taehyung calling us in the living room.

I went to Jungkook and we went to the living room together, with Sunjae on his arms. Jisoo took him back as soon as we arrived in the living room. Jungkook gave Sunjae back to his mom.

He must really like kids.

Taehyung rosed his glass of champagne, "Let's make a toast before we eat our dinner, shall we?"

We all nodded to him and poured ourselves a glass of our own.

"I know each one of us have different struggles in life. Especially Jungkook who... most likely formed this family." Taehyung gave Jungkook a reassuring smile.

And he continued, "Although, one has to go, another one came. He finally found another family of his own." Taehyung turned to me and gave me a welcoming smile. I smiled back at him.

"Jimin, Jin, Hoseok, Suga hyung and to all of us... We all wish one thing." Taehyung started his speech.

Jennie watched him as his arms are wrapped around his wife's waist. Jungkook must've notice me staring at the couple so he, too, wrapped his arms around my waist.

Taehyung raised his glass, "To freedom."

We couldn't agree more as we all did the cheers and said, "To freedom."

We all dranked the champagne but I noticed Jungkook was just staring at his glass blankly.

I nudged him, "Are you okay?"

I caught him in trance and he came back to reality when he heard me.

"Yeah, I'm fine." He forced a small smile at me and drank his champagne.

You're actions doesn't say so, Jeon.

The part ended smoothly. Me and Jungkook bid our farewell to Jennie and Taehyung.

"Happy Anniversary!" I greeted for the last time and hugged the couple.

Jungkook did the same and we both went staright to the right after. Buf what bothered me most was Jungkook being quiet the whole time.

Actually, he was acting pretty normal and jolly when we first got here. But after Taehyung proposing a toast, his mood suddenly changed.

I watch him drive and his whole attention is focused on the road.

"Hey." I rested my hand on his thigh, making him jolt a little.

He didn't respond but only arched his one brow as a response.

"Are you okay?" I asked.

He nodded quietly and continued driving. He didn't even gave me a look or merely glanced at me. He was too focused on the road.

I just settled on my seat and decided not to bother him anymore. I'm not upset or anything. I'm just confused. But if that's how he want things now, then I'll respect him.

It's not like I don't have a choice but I'm not that persistent and I don't want to annoy him.

We arrived at the house just in time for bed. He tossed the car key on the nearest table and slumped down on the sofa.

I stood and watched him as he took deep breaths while cover his face with a pillow.

"Are you tired? Do you want me to prepare you a warm bath? I'll scrub your back." I insisted, still not moving from my spot.

"No need. I'm gonna go to bed now." He suddenly stood up and went straight to the bedroom, still not giving me a look.

I followed suit and found him laying on his stomach and didn't even remove his shoes or changed his clothes.

I sighed and sat on the edge of the bed. I started removing his shoes and his socks. Sleeping with jeans on is uncomfortable.

"Jungkook, why don't you wash up and change your clothes?" I tilted my had, tapping his back.

He groaned, "Can you just let me sleep, Lisa? Can't you see I'm not in the mood?"

I bit my lips when I felt a pinch of pain inside my chest. I stood up and quietly went to the washroom to change.

I went back to bed, only to find him already curled up in a blanket. I slowly laid myself beside him and tucked inside the blanket.

That's when I found out he's topless.

"Stubborn. I told you to change." I muttered to myself.

I can only see his long wavy hair since I'm facing his back. I reached for him, wanting to touch him but I withdraw midway, remembering what he just said earlier.

I clenched the sheets and bit my lips.

"Goodnight, I'm sorry." I spat before deciding to finally close my eyes and sleep.
