Jungkook managed to get two weeks off and used all that time to spend with Taehyung. He took him out on dates to various places and did all the things that Taehyung asked even if they were childish or absolutely senseless. There came times when Taehyung misinterpreted the situation but Jungkook would immediately clear his doubts and Taehyung would be happy again. Jimin made his visit every other day to make sure that Taehyung was doing fine and that Jungkook was keeping himself in control. Of course, they did some frick frack every now and then but Jimin was never told about any of it for the sake of Jungkook's safety. Two weeks time was more than enough for Taehyung to recover since he spent it all with Jungkook and both of their visits to the hospital during this time proved his improvement.

After two weeks Jungkook started going to his office once again and Jimin's visits reduced as well since Taehyung was completely fine. Taehyung returned to his own office as well and his staff welcomed him warm heartedly. They even threw a small party for him and that day his colleagues found what Taehyung's true happiness was like.  It wouldn't be wrong to say that he was able to sway many hearts even though he already had majority of them on his side. 

Finally things were going smooth. After a month passed, Jungkook decided to surprise Taehyung by asking him to become his life partner. He bought a gorgeous ring that would fit his boyfriend's pretty hand and called Taehyung. The said guy answered on the second bell as if he was waiting for Jungkook's call.

"Hey Kookie!"

Taehyung's sweet and deep voice greeted Jungkook and the older barely kept his giddiness in check. He was so excited that he wanted to blurt it out on the phone.

"Hey baby! Where are you?"

"In office and going to the cafeteria, right now. Why?"

Jungkook did a small victory jump when he heard that because it meant he wouldn't have to wait for Taehyung to get free since he was already on break.

"Meet me outside in ten minutes. I have to show you something."

Taehyung agreed and Jungkook quickly rushed out of the shop and into his car before he drove off to Taehyung's office. It took him nine minutes and forty seven seconds to reach the destination, not that either of them was counting.

Jungkook rolled the window of the passenger seat as he leaned towards it and grinned at Taehyung.

"What are you waiting for? Jump in."

Taehyung settled in and they took off. Jungkook was overflowing with excitement and Taehyung couldn't help but ask.

"What are you so happy about?"

Jungkook took a look at Taehyung and then focused back on the road without answering. Taehyung was waiting for an answer but when he got none, a pout formed on his face.

/I guess I'll have to wait./

Jungkook stopped once they reached a beautiful sakura tree. He parked the car and got out as Taehyung quietly followed mumbling to himself.

"There were so many sakura trees on our way if that's what you wanted."

Jungkook heard him but ignored it as he made his way to Taehyung and held his hand to lead him over to the shade of the tree.

"Jungkookie wha-"

Before Taehyung's question was completed, Jungkook reached his pocket and pulled out the box before holding Taehyung's hand as he kneeled down on one knee. Taehyung widened his eyes in surprise since it was the last thing he could have expected. Jungkook smiled at the dumfounded look on his lover's face and opened the box to show what he got for Taehyung.

"I know I'm a little too late but better late than never, right?"

/I can't believe this is really happening./

Taehyung bit his lip as he nodded to stop himself from grinning like an idiot, at least, until Jungkook was done talking.

"Alright then. Taehyungie?"

Taehyung cleared is throat to answer since he seemed to have lost his voice.

"Yes."

Jungkook took in a deep breath to speak carefully or else he would ruin the moment by stuttering.

"Can I have the honor of having you as my husband for an eternity?"

Taehyung was giggling and blushing with each word Jungkook said and finally when he got the turn to speak, Taehyung bounced on his feet.

"Yes!"

Jungkook grinned back at him as he released the breath he didn't know why he was holding as if Taehyung was ever going to say something other than that. He let go of Taehyung's hand to pull the ring out of the box and carefully put it on Taehyung's finger before he stood up. Taehyung immediately wrapped his arms around Jungkook's neck as the older rested his hands on Taehyung's waist and pulled him closer.

"I swear it never crossed my mind that we have yet to get married, Kookie."

Jungkook chuckled at that as he stared at Taehyung before leaning in and capturing Taehyung's lips. Their breaths mingled with each other's as their lips moved super slowly. They were at the peak of their happiness and it seemed like they became deaf to their surroundings.

If only they hadn't become so unaware, they would have heard the car approaching them in great speed and out of control but they didn't until it was too late. The last thing they saw was the white front before

SCREECH!

CRASH!

And everything turned black for both of them. At least they were in each other's embrace till their last moment and it was more than satisfactory for them since the last thing they did before darkness engulfed them was smile at each other and say.

"I love you, Tae."

"I love you, Kookie."

Their eyes closed forever but the smiles never faltered.
