During their walk Jungkook had to make a quick stop at a store, and the other could not come with. So Taehyung waited outside of the store patiently. Pacing in circles a few times and tapping the tip of his shoes against a lantern pole. In short, things you do when you're bored while waiting.

He wondered what he could be getting there. And why does he need it right now? He could have gotten in tomorrow at an earlier time instead of two minutes before closing time.

Either way, Taehyung had to wait outside.

He sighed and stopped pacing. Staring ahead into the busy street, people are all done with work going home to eat. They were one of them themselves.

His eyes looked at no one in particular there was too much to see, an old lady, parents, children shop owners a-.....Wait.... He looked back where he saw the children walk. Someone stood still in the back. His eyes were staring at him intensely. A strangely deformed skin on the side of his face.

"ah!" he gasped and stepped back alarmed. In shock he tried to flee and get to  the wizard for safety, but when he turned around he bumped into a hard chest. One that surprisingly wobbled out of balance from the impact too.

"woah there, why the rush?" Jungkook asked after regaining his balance. He extended his hand to the human who had fallen on his ass.
Taehyung shook his head but when he looked up he yelped and swatted the hand away. It was the same face he saw just now.

"h-hey, it's me, Jungkook '' Jungkook said his face showed a little hurt from the swat.

"Jungkook......" Taehyung let out a deep breath and got up. "I'm sorry.."

"What is wrong? Did something happen? Anyone bothered you?"

"no no" Taehyung quickly replied and glanced back at the spot where the children were still standing and chatting "i just... Thought i saw something..."

Jungkook looked at wherever Taehyung was looking for a moment. "You barely slept last night, I noticed. Lets get to bed early tonight, ill cuddle you"

"I think I need that.. Thanks" The human smiled and walked closer to Jungkook.

Back at the Park house Jungkook had taken his medicine and Dr.Park examined his recovery like he does every few days. After all that they had gone to the living room.

"in all the years I've been your friend. This what happened recently got to be the most unexpected and unbelievable thing ever. I always thought you were a mysterious type but damn, this goes beyond'' Jimin said with a chuckle, all while his eyes were looking at the knife in his hand that he used to peel the potatoes. He was preparing them for dinner.

"i did not plan that to happen.. So i'm glad things turned out well in the end." Jungkook replied.

"so, putting that aside, I kinda talked about it enough.... Uhm so how are you two? What will you do after he is recovered?" Jimin asked the question in general to both of them but it was actually more of a question towards Taehyung. The one who he was a little worried might want to go back to his own world.

"I would love to stay with Jungkook. That's what we had planned."

"that is what is planned, don't doubt that. I love you and you will come live with me and Zuzu."

"yes but....I don't actually belong here. How can I live here my life, i also have a family back home..."

"look, I can not keep you away from your family but you have family here too. You have a home here, you can live here and visit your other world. But don't think you won't fit in, you have shown you are capable of getting around and adapt to these lands, you are one of us. This world welcomes you" The raven said. And he meant it. It's true that he can't force the other to leave his family, but he doesn't have to. As long as possible they can still travel between the two lands. It's just like moving to a different kingdom. That's the best solution for it. If Taehyung still likes the idea of it.

"you're all to kind to me." Taehyung said softly. He didn't think he was that suitable. He still had a lot to learn about protecting himself. He barely managed to use his sword against that clone. He did not train his whole life like the knights too. Like Jungkook does. And he was quickly afraid. But he isn't stupid, and he stood his ground even when facing a much more powerful being. He did not back out.

So, maybe he wasn't as weak as he thinks. His strengths were just in different places.

His lips curled into a smile.

"thank you. Yes, that's the plan. We will live together. I will move in with Jungkook, and we will go on amazing journeys together.

The wizard smiled warmly to hear that, but it was even better because Taehyung was looking back at him when he said it. And his eyes didn't look hesitant. He really wanted to.

"So mushy, I love it, '' Jimin chuckled. "my interest doesn't acknowledge my flirts at all." he sighed. "But I'm really happy for you Jungkookie, you deserve this after it all. And Taehyung is such a sweetheart too. Going all this way with you and then standing up for you. You really got a treasure here"

"a-ah stop, d-don't say it like that" The human blushed heavily and stood up. "i uhh gotta use the restroom. Be right back"

"cute" Jungkook said softly and exchanged a little smile with Jimin who heard it.

"I will get the pots ready, dinner shall be done in about thirty minutes. Make sure the table is set by then" Jimin stood up as well taking the pot with potatoes with him.

"but im sick"

"you are recovered enough to stand and walk so you might as well help with dinner."

"Damn, friends" jungkook joked and grabbed his cane to push himself back on his feet.

Dinner was done quickly with everyone's help. And it was a peaceful meal. The park Parents spoke about some patients with Jimin to test his studies. The two guests listened along while they ate, occasionally playfully touching the other's leg to distract them from the food, which resulted in a few laughs between the two.

After Dinner Jungkook quickly felt drained and exhausted from all the activity of the day. The medicines made him very drowsy already near the day he would be too tired early.

Taehyung happily went to bed with him.

And as promised the raven already awaited him with open arms when he came from the bathroom.

"My love, my arms are here to hold you," he said.

"aish, my heart" taehyung chuckled and quickly hurried up with the lights and clothes. Big smile on his face he hopped in bed and scooted against the other into his arms.

It felt so good to lay here like this. Taehyung can't stop thinking about all that happened. Those memories made him grateful for this.

"you're warm," Jungkook said softly and snuggled closer, his nose poking the other's neck. A nose that then turned into two soft bumps being pressed on his skin. Gently touching the sports around the first one before they pressed down and he felt a suck on his skin.

"o-oh!" Taehyung was surprised and felt a tingle go through his body. He had never been kissed there before. But boy it felt good. He felt Jungkook hold him closer and he sucked again.

"I've thought about you..... A lot" Jungkook said softly, placing a kiss on the hickey. "You are all I want...." words that made the human feel so warm inside. He reacted more to it than he had thought. That was a good thing.

"j-jungkook..." Taehyung breathed out and his fingers clutched onto Jungkook's bicep. "Me too.... I've thought of you too..."

"it's a shame i'm still not recovered... But there are other ways" the wizard chuckled and Taehyung felt a thigh being pushed between his legs, rubbing against his hardening bulge...

"o-oh h-heh ah" Taehyung let out a cute, nervous sound feeling that. But he didn't stop him. He liked it, the rub gave him pleasurable tingles through his stomach.
When the leg pressed firmer he gasped and his hand grabbed further onto Jungkook's side squeezing it. This was not a good action as he squeezed right into Jungkook's bloody bruise that was wrapped up.

"aishhh" Jungkook inhaled sharply followed by a groan and a clasp onto his side.

"baby! I'm so sorry. I-i didn't realize-"

"no no, its alright. I probably shouldn't do things like that when I'm clearly not healthy yet..."Jungkook sighed and laid back normally. But he held Taehyung's hand to still feel the connection. "a sign to keep my hands to myself haha"

"i quite like you touching me"

"oh oh....You do now hmm?"

"mmhmm" Taehyung smiled and hid his cheeks under the blankets.

"my cutie, let's sleep. Our moment will come when time lets us. Sweet dreams, i will heal quickly for you" Jungkook pressed a kiss on Taehyung's forehead.

"You too, goodnight Koo"
