Hello, my loves~♡ I hope you all have been well~♡ I've been well this week.:3 Writing at least 3 or 4 chapters a day to meet this deadline.🤣😂 I still have 20 chapters left to write.😔 I'm hoping it doesn't seem too rushed at any point because of my desire to meet that deadline. I've even been using my speech to text a lot more often because of work and the desire to keep a certain pace.😂🤣 Although, adding chapters to keep the story flowing smoothly is what's killing my margins.🤣😂 But that's okay~♡ I'd rather have a decent story that makes sense than meet a deadline any day. So we'll see how this goes because we have a week left now.😂🤣 But onto the chapter now.:3 This chapter has minor sexual content, nothing too graphic but please remain advised when reading~♡ Without further ado, please enjoy the next installment~♡

Taehyung opened his eyes barely when he felt someone shaking him. A small groan left his lips as Jungkook's face hovered in front of him. "Hey sleepyhead, our plane has landed. It's time to get up and go to our next hotel, love," Jungkook announced softly, helping a groggy Taehyung to his feet. Jungkook didn't realize how much energy Taehyung had expended when giving him that blowjob. Although now he was starting to see the toll it took on Taehyung's body as the elder wobbled groggily toward the exit. Jungkook stifled a small laugh as he hastily followed after Taehyung, after grabbing Taehyung's forgotten carry-on bag.

When Taehyung stepped off the boarding dock, the smell of fresh coffee permeated his sense of smell and he suddenly wanted some. Before Jungkook could catch up to him with his carry on bag, Taehyung was wandering off in search of coffee, forgetting that he had an additional person with him. Taehyung stopped when he found the coffee shop, staring up at the green sign before glancing around him to ask if Jungkook wanted anything. He had suddenly remembered that he had his fiance traveling with him now. Only he didn't find Jungkook beside him and the panic set in before Jungkook could breathlessly catch up to Taehyung. "Goodness," Jungkook started breathlessly, hunching over to catch his breath. "You sure are determined to get coffee when you're still sleepy," Jungkook huffed out, finally standing upright and holding Taehyung's carry-on bag out to him. "You forgot this too," Jungkook teased as Taehyung flushed and hastily grabbed his bag from Jungkook. "Sorry," Taehyung mumbled softly out of embarrassment, earning a peck on the cheek. "It's alright, love. I know you're tired. I can see it on your face," Jungkook reasoned softly, brushing his knuckles tenderly down Taehyung's cheek.

Taehyung puffed his cheeks out in a pout before nodding his head in agreement with Jungkook's statement. He couldn't deny that his face looked rather dreadful with dark circles under his eyes. No wonder Jungkook was always worried about him pushing himself. He looked like death warmed over right now. After waiting a couple of minutes in line, Taehyung was finally able to order their drinks and small snack foods for some nutrition. Although Taehyung still felt extremely drained and sluggish for some reason, even after he'd finished his americano, a cake pop, and a sweet slice of cheesecake bread. He couldn't understand why his energy had dipped so low in the last few hours, especially since he'd napped during their entire flight. Jungkook had started to notice that something was off with Taehyung, although the elder wasn't speaking up about it. Jungkook quirked an eyebrow when Taehyung's head dipped slightly, his chin rising off his palm until Taehyung rose his head almost immediately after. Jungkook could tell Taehyung was on the verge of collapsing and he didn't think Taehyung would be able to acquire their hotel room in this state. "Hey, Tae," Jungkook addressed softly, earning a slight flick of Taehyung's eyes toward him. "You didn't already get the hotel, did you?" Jungkook asked softly, caressing Taehyung's face tenderly as the elder laid his head on Jungkook's shoulder. "No. I always wait on the hotel until I get to my destination," Taehyung explained lethargically, his eyes closing slightly as he leaned against Jungkook.

Jungkook bit his lip in anxiety, tenderly caressing the open side of Taehyung's face. "I have distant relatives that live here in Illinois if you'd rather stay with them. They're not too far from the airport or ocean and it'd save you money," Jungkook explained pleasantly as Taehyung hummed in response. "Yeah, we can. You can visit your family while we're here then," Taehyung reasoned absentmindedly, holding Jungkook's hand tenderly. Jungkook smiled tenderly while he allowed Taehyung to rest on his shoulder for a little while, watching over their luggage as Taehyung slumbered once again. After an hour of sitting there, Jungkook roused Taehyung once more. Taehyung groaned softly as he opened his eyes again, bright light flooding his vision.

Taehyung lifted his head off Jungkook's shoulder and peered around languidly. "Hey, love. Why don't we get out of the airport and head to my aunt and uncle's house? I already asked if it was okay and they were excited to hear I was in town," Jungkook admitted softly as Taehyung stared out at the crowd of people dazed. Jungkook helped Taehyung to his feet and grabbed his hand. "Just follow me, love. I'll get you there and you can sleep even more, okay?" Jungkook announced with a soft smile, brushing Taehyung's hair out of his eyes.

When Jungkook rang the doorbell with their luggage beside them, he could hear the heavy thunder of rushing footsteps. The door swung wide open as his aunt and uncle stood in the doorway with excited faces. "Jungkook," they both exclaimed in unison, his aunt throwing her arms around him as she spotted Taehyung. "It's so good to see you! Who is this with you?" She asked curiously, eyeing a dazed Taehyung up and down. Jungkook smiled happily as he was blissfully unaware that his aunt was staring at Taehyung with a different kind of interest. "This is my fianceé, Taehyung," Jungkook introduced him with a beaming smile, earning a lazy smile from Taehyung. Jungkook's aunt seemed surprised as she glanced back at Jungkook momentarily. "Fianceé?! When did you get engaged?! Your parents always thought you would remain single until the day you were no longer with us," she announced her shock loudly, her eyes still watching Taehyung intently. Although extremely tired, Taehyung's hypersensitivity kicked in as he lethargically became aware that she was staring him down. Although when Taehyung met her intense gaze, she shifted her eyes elsewhere with a smirk. "Well, come on in! We'll get you settled into your rooms," his aunt announced loudly, catching Jungkook off guard. "R- Rooms? We're fine with just one room," Jungkook reasoned softly, wondering why she wanted them in separate rooms. His aunt shook her head as she turned back toward Jungkook. "Darling, it's inappropriate for an unmarried couple to sleep in the same bed," she made the excuse before flicking her eyes in Taehyung's direction.

Taehyung suddenly felt immensely uncomfortable at that look but said nothing as Jungkook stammered out a response. "O- Oh, I- I didn't know that," Jungkook whispered dejectedly, glancing back at Taehyung. "I guess we'll have to have separate rooms during this visit but I'll make it up to you," Jungkook whispered in Taehyung's ear, earning a soft nod. Taehyung didn't want to take Jungkook away from his family just because he felt uncomfortable with his aunt. His aunt and uncle navigated them to their separate rooms as Taehyung glanced back at Jungkook. He was just grateful that the woman was leading Jungkook so that he wouldn't have to be alone with her. The thought repulsed him with the looks she had been throwing his way. Once Jungkook's uncle explained everything to Taehyung, he left the room as Taehyung sighed with relief and collapsed onto the bed. Before he knew it, Taehyung was fast asleep once again.

Jungkook knocked softly on his door after some time, rousing Taehyung awake once more. When he glanced around to figure out what time it was, he noticed that the sun had already gone down. Taehyung hastily sprung from the bed to open his door, regret etched into his expression as Jungkook's beaming smile met him. "I brought you some dinner. I hope I didn't bother you but I do want you to eat," Jungkook explained softly, holding the plate out to Taehyung. Taehyung graciously accepted the food, along with inviting Jungkook into his room as he thanked him. "Thank you for the food, love. I didn't even realize I'd slept so long," Taehyung apologized sheepishly, earning a soft kiss from Jungkook. "I knew you were tired, love. No need to feel bad about sleeping. Plus, I know you get like that closer to your therapy and a few days after your therapy," Jungkook reasoned sweetly, earning a soft chuckle from Taehyung. "Yeah, you wouldn't be wrong," Taehyung chuckled once more, taking a bite of his food. "When is your next appointment?" Jungkook asked curiously as Taehyung waited to finish chewing before answering. "My next appointment is 3 days from now," Taehyung answered hesitantly, not really wanting to talk about that right now. "Okay! Well, my uncle has a yacht that he wants to take us out on! Would you like to go sometime this week?" Jungkook asked excitedly as Taehyung tenderly smiled at the beaming smile on Jungkook's face. How could he tell him no with that face?

Taehyung chuckled and nodded softly at Jungkook's question. "Yeah, that sounds like it'd be fun. Plus, we'll get to see all the buildings on the coast and I'm sure that would be breathtaking," Taehyung claimed equally as excited now while Jungkook pouted playfully. "Although nothing, and I mean, nothing will ever be as breathtaking as you are, Kookie," Taehyung added to ease the younger male's pout. Although Jungkook beamed brightly as soon as the words left Taehyung's mouth. "Faker," Taehyung teased playfully as Jungkook shoved Taehyung in his arm playfully, making sure Taehyung didn't lose any of his food though. "Tae, do you want me to come to your therapy appointment?" Jungkook asked seriously now, watching Taehyung eat his food hesitantly. It almost seemed like he wasn't even hungry as Jungkook chewed the inside of his lower lip. "You don't have to do that, love. Spend time with your family, I'll be fine on my own. It wouldn't be the first time I had to go it alone," Taehyung reasoned softly, smiling as Jungkook took his fork from him. He collected a bite-sized piece of chicken and held it out toward Taehyung. Taehyung flushed a soft tint of pink that spread across his cheeks as he faltered on taking the food. Jungkook knew then that Taehyung wasn't hungry and that worried him as he coaxed Taehyung into eating this one piece before he'd take the plate away. Taehyung deliberately took the fork into his mouth, chewing slowly before swallowing what was in his mouth. "Why aren't you hungry, love? You're going to need your strength for the next few days," Jungkook insisted with a hint of distress in his gaze. Taehyung chuckled softly and kissed Jungkook's forehead tenderly, gazing into his eyes lovingly. "This happens at times. It's nothing to worry so much about," Taehyung expressed calmly, although it was the sense of nausea keeping him from eating. He tenderly brushed his hand through Jungkook's hair as he pressed his forehead to Jungkook's and closed his eyes. Jungkook sighed softly under his breath before clasping his hand to Taehyung's face and kissing him softly and slowly before releasing Taehyung.

"I know you say I shouldn't worry but that doesn't mean I'm not going to worry about you," Jungkook confessed quietly, kissing Taehyung once again this time more sensually. They were told to keep separated by his aunt but Jungkook couldn't help the fact that he was attracted to Taehyung like a moth to a flame. When Jungkook pulled back this time, Taehyung seemed almost breathless as he smiled at Jungkook tenderly. Jungkook couldn't help but kiss Taehyung again and again, making up for the time that they'd be separated from each other. When they would part, their heavy breaths would mingle between them until their lips met in a searing kiss once more. Before Jungkook could stop himself, he was climbing over Taehyung to straddle his hips while kissing him more passionately. Taehyung felt Jungkook grip his shoulders, only to shove him backward onto the bed. "I had my turn earlier today. Now, it's your turn, darling," Jungkook whispered sensually, grinding his hips against Taehyung's in a circular motion. Taehyung groaned softly at the pain his growing erection caused as Jungkook clicked his tongue. "I told you it'd only hurt worse, love," Jungkook whispered in Taehyung's ear causing the elder to flinch toward the other side. Jungkook playfully ran his tongue over Taehyung's ear causing the elder to pant in need now. Taehyung grasped Jungkook's hips gently and bounced him slightly against his painful excitement, biting his lip as Jungkook continued to whisper in his ear. Jungkook's hand slid down Taehyung's chest and stomach toward the waistband of his pants. "Do you want me to touch you?" Jungkook whispered heatedly into Taehyung's ear, teasingly licking the outer shell. Once again, Taehyung's head jerked toward the side away from Jungkook's lips, panting heavily as he nodded hesitantly. "I want to hear you say it," Jungkook teased playfully, nipping Taehyung's ear now. Taehyung panted softly at Jungkook's request, parting his lips to speak only for the door to his room to open loudly. Both Jungkook and Taehyung jumped at the sound of the door hitting the wall behind it as Jungkook looked over to see his aunt standing in the doorway. "What are you two doing?! It's sinful and you shouldn't be acting this way," she shouted indignantly, pointing toward the hallway. "Get out of the room, Jungkook," his aunt ordered sternly as Jungkook bashfully climbed off the bed and scurried out of the room with a look of regret and remorse towards Taehyung before disappearing down the hallway.

Taehyung stared at Jungkook's aunt silently, wondering why she hadn't knocked first. What if he'd been changing and half naked? Although, Taehyung remained silent as he turned away from her and threw one of the pillows over his lap to conceal the erection he'd sustained from Jungkook's ministrations. "I apologize. We shouldn't have behaved in that manner under your roof," Taehyung apologized softly, placing his elbows over the pillow and putting his chin in his hands. Jungkook's aunt was silent for several seconds before turning and leaving the room, her face flushed as Taehyung sighed with disdain. He was going to be in even more pain now as he threw the pillow down behind him. He was gradually becoming more frustrated with the waiting game but he wanted Jungkook to have his own travel experiences to recall. Taehyung didn't want to control all of their plans and leave Jungkook to follow along. Taehyung threw himself back into the bed, sighing softly as he closed his eyes, drifting off to sleep rather quickly again.
