Jungkook sighs as he leans back in the plane seat, having his earphones playing music to shut the world out.

Beside him, Yoongi has already fallen asleep, his head resting against the window frame to his right.

It kind of reminds Jungkook of the first flight he had to the countryside, except for the fact that this is first class. But for the first time ever, Jungkook doesn't care what class he's on. He just wants to, he wants to see Taehyung as soon as possible.

The excitement is already exploding in his stomach, yet... the fear is almost overruling it.

Jungkook doesn't even know if Taehyung wants to talk to him when they get there.

Yoongi assured him though that with time, Taehyung would warm up for him again. Taehyung always did that. How did he know? Jin told him.

Jungkook almost chuckles at the thought of how Yoongi was excited to go too. He doesn't show his feelings much, but when he does, he gives them a totally free ride.

The raven-haired boy closes his eyes and let's himself fall asleep.

Jungkook almost sprints out of the car as soon as they arrive by Taehyung's house. They had already dropped Yoongi off at Jin's house, so the car quickly turned to drive back to the city.

Jungkook doesn't care, he just runs up to the front door, ready to smack it open. But as his hand lands on the door knob, he halts.

He can't avoid the loud gulp he makes. His nerves are outside his clothes and his heart is beating too fast.

He can feel the fresh, hot wind around him, giving him a strange feeling of something. Something he swore this place would never be to him, but he was wrong.

Home.

With a mental slap to the face and a deep breath he opens the door. The preparation for meeting eye to eye with his better half, doesn't come in to much use when Jungkook realizes the house is empty.

With a frown, he goes to the kitchen, the living room and upstairs but Taehyung is nowhere to be found.

He must be in the stable then.

Jungkook goes there but without luck. Also the barn, fields and around the entire house, but the handsome brunette is nowhere to be seen.

Jungkook runs a hand through his hair as he grabs his phone. His finger hovers over Taehyung's contact that hasn't been touched in over 2 months.

Maybe he should have called before he came here.

He gets it together and calls, placing the phone against his ear. It beeps for waaaay to long, but Jungkook is desperate for the other to answer.

When it goes to voicemail, he feels like screaming.

He quickly scrolls through the contacts on his cracked phone screen, searching up Jimin's name.

"Hyallow," the elder mumbles into the phone clearly eating something.

"Is Taehyung at your place?" Jungkook asks without greeting or anything.

"Jungkook? What are you-"

"Just answer the question," he quickly cuts the other off. His heart will burst soon.

"No, he isn't, but V isn't here either so he probably rode somewhere," Jimin replies. Over these days, Jimin has been taking care of the horses because Taehyung has been running a lot of errands in the city - probably also because he's too emotionally unstable doing this time.

"Can I ride Jk?"

"What do you mean? Jk's here, not in Seoul..."

"What a coincidence, I'm not in Seoul either, I'll be over in a minute," Jungkook quickly spits out before ending the call, not letting Jimin reply.

He needs to find the elder and it has to be now... or he might explode from stress. Call him drama queen, but he's a boss bitch so he gives no fucks.

"What the hell are you doing here?" Jimin questions as he watches Jungkook saddle up the beautiful black stallion.

"I got my mind back on track," Jungkook says and grabs a helmet quickly.

"Finally, you have one hell of an apology to give... Taehyung was fucking wrecked when you left," Jimin spits as a crosses his arms. He hasn't even forgiven Jungkook for his actions, so that will be harder with Taehyung.

"He does too!?"

"No he don't, you were being a bitch."

"He could have come with me, but now I'm being the grown up who is going to him instead," Jungkook fires back.

"Just shut up and get going."

Jungkook does just that by grabbing the saddle and lifting himself up on the horse. He moves a little to sit comfortably and looks down at Jimin.

"Does he really hate my guts now?" he mumbles out. Jimin chuckles slightly at that and rests his weight on one leg.

"I only think it's because he loves you very badly that he has become this emotional," he replies with a smirk.

Jungkook nods and smiles slightly. He'll fight for that love.

"Where do you think he is?"

"My best guess would be by the river a little south from here, try that."

Oh. There.

"Thanks Jimin..."

"No problem, now go get you man!" he yells and gives Jk a harsh smack on the rear part that sends him running.

Jungkook almost falls off in shock, but quickly gets the grib and start kicking the horse's side gently to make him go faster.

He knows it's a longer ride but he doesn't mind at all.

He feels his hair get brushed back just like all the other times he has been horse-riding. It never gets disappointing.

He keeps going in the direction Jimin mentioned. Taehyung also told Jungkook about that river one time. It's specielt to him.

*Flashback to 4 months ago*

Jungkook yawns as he lets his head rest on Taehyung's broad chest. He can hear the other's heartbeat quietly through his ear as his hand runs over the beautifully displayed abs.

They have just finished an amazing session of passionate sex, something that has become a normal thing for them.

"I want to take you somewhere one day," Taehyung begins, "it's a little far from here, but it's definitely worth the ride."

"Where is it? Is it the city?" Jungkook questions, his cheek still pressed against Taehyung. The elder chuckles lightly which sends shivers through Jungkook's heart.

"No, it's... it's a river, hidden in a valley. Probably a very rare sight for a city-boy like you," he teases and earns a playful punch to the stomach.

Jungkook rolls over his so his arms are resting on either side of the elder's head.

"And this so called city-boy got you wrapped around his little finger," Jungkook smirks. Taehyung returns the action before grabbing Jungkook's hips and turning him over roughly.

Jungkook yelps as he gets pressed against the mattress with Taehyung above him.

"Is that so?"

"Do you disagree?"

"Mmm maybe, maybe not."

"That's not an answer."

Taehyung rolls his eyes in a joking manner before leaning down and capturing Jungkook plump lips.

"But I really want to take you there. Granny brought me there when I was a child, she told me a story from that place that has been imprinted in my heart forever," he whispers as he hides his face in the space between Jungkook's neck and shoulder.

"What is it?" Jungkook asks curiously, letting his hand run through Taehyung's hair.

He can feel Taehyung smile against his skin.

"I'll tell you when we get there."

*End of flashback*

Jungkook can't help but smile at the memory. They were so comfortable back then, so at peace.

He kicks a little more to Jk's sides and feels him speed up even more.

He's going to get that peace back.
