"What's this?"

"A necklace."

"No shit Sherlock, I meant what's the occasion?"

Jungkook chuckled as he clasped the necklace together, Y/n staring at herself in her mirror. They were in her apartment a week after the tattoo parlor... 'incident'. Yeah, he kind of ate her out in a closet and almost got caught by her boss. He had to play it off smoothly by saying he was stopping by to help. The boss saw his tattoos and figured he was a paying customer, so the man left Jungkook and Y/n alone. Still, that was the most terrifying moment of his life.

"No occasion, I just thought you'd look nice in it. I can be nice sometimes, you know," he said, her rolling her eyes. "I can ma-"

"-ke those eyes roll. God, you're more predictable than Wattpad stories."

"Shush."

She pecked his lips regardless of their bickering, her holding the charm on the necklace and thanking him for it. He was quick to shake her off, taking her hand and guiding her to the door. "Where are we going? A date?" she asked.

"Nah, something better. We're gonna prank Jimin and Taehyung."

"No the fuck we're not, I want Jimin to like me."

"What? Why?"

"Because my first real impression on him was me walking in on him about to fuck his girlfriend," she said, huffing out some air and stopping in her tracks. "I'd like to make a better impression than that."

"Jimin's not mad about it, he fucked his girl anyway."

"You're so annoying," she mumbled, Jungkook raising both his brows.

"Oh? I'm annoying now, am I?"

"No, don't do this again you hoe, we're not having sex on a Tuesday."

Jungkook tilted his head, genuinely at a loss for words for a few moments. "Wha... what's wrong with having sex on a Tuesday?"

"No one likes Tuesday's, so we're going to protest them by not having sex on Tuesday's."

"We had sex last Tue-"

"Lalala, I can't hear you." Y/n threw open the door, flashing him a smile. "Let's go to the nature preserve instead. Jimin and Tae deserve to be left alone for the day. We already bother them enough."

Although Jungkook would love to prank his friends, he agreed with Y/n, heading outside and taking her hand. It took quite a while, but they quietly went to the nature preserve and trekked down the path, admiring the dark sky that seemed to welcome their eyes.

"It's a nice night," Y/n said, Jungkook grinning and agreeing. "But can I be honest with you?" He didn't stop her. "It'd be nicer if you kissed me."

Jungkook chuckled and halted their movements, leaning down and gently pressing his lips against hers. "Is that better, baby?" he asked against her lips, and she shook her head, kissing him again.

They kissed under the moonlight, the rays of light illuminating their figures twirling around their skin. It felt as if they were doing a dance with each other. Jungkook pulled away and placed his hands on her hips, not caring if anyone else was watching. And just like that, they slow danced like they did the first time in Y/n's kitchen. Their grins came out, Jungkook placing his forehead on hers and coming closer than he had before.

"Can I tell you something?" he said, pecking her lips twice before allowing her to answer.

"You didn't brush your teeth today?"

"Well- wait, what? I didn't brush my teeth today?" Jungkook blinked a few times, tilting his head. "Did I?"

"You're a dumbass."

"I know." Jungkook couldn't stop his smile. He gave her a bunny grin that had her chuckling, ruffling his hair, but he kept up his perky attitude.

"Someone's happy. Are you hiding something from me? Did you get an A on philosophy or something?"

"Oh God, I wish. I can't get anything higher than a C with or without your help." Y/n laughed at him, and he pouted. His pout only made her laugh harder, and he pretended to be offended. She came closer and swayed back and forth with him, his pout dissipating. "You're probably gonna laugh more when I tell you. It's pretty stupid. I probably shouldn't tell you at all, to be honest."

"Well what are girlfriends for? Tell me all your dumb thoughts, you'll get made fun of in a controlled environment instead of in front of the whole school."

"You are the biggest asshole I've ever met, and that's coming from me. Me. I'm friends with Park Jimin and I'm saying that," he said, his eyes glinting with amusement.

"I'm a bigger asshole than Jimin? Do I have a bigger ass than him too?"

"Fucking hell, I can't win. No matter how I answer, someone gets offended."

"So I don't?"

"Babe, the only thing you have that's bigger than Jimin's ass is your forehead."

Y/n halted, staring at him. Alright, he was about to be killed. His girlfriend was gonna call Hana and they were gonna get the shovels to bury him alive. Those were his thoughts, anyway. Until she started laughing again. He laughed with her, the two slow dancing in the nature preserve at night.

"Alright pretty boy, I think you've stalled long enough. What is this dumbass secret you have to tell me?"

Jungkook kept her close, staring at her starry eyes and kissing her head. He couldn't stop himself from kissing her skin over and over again, his smile radiating through the night sky. It felt like his happiness could be the Sun, like he was the difference between night and day. Jungkook hoped he was the Sun in Y/n's life. He hoped and he prayed that this woman in front of him was his one. And there was only one way to find out.

He took her hands and stopped their dance, instead meeting her eyes. She gazed back, and he suddenly found the courage to say it. She was patient with him. Caring. She had done everything in her power to make him feel special. And now it was his turn.

"I love you."

Her eyes widened, her lips parting as she processed his words. For once, he wasn't nervous. Whether it was right or too soon or too late didn't matter to him. Jungkook did it, and that was what was important. After everything, he managed to do what he had to do-

"I love you too," she said.

Joy burst into his vision, colors exploding while fireworks cheered in his stomach. He picked her up and spun her around, Y/n giggling because of it. He set her back down moments later, pulling her into a passionate, loving kiss. She accepted it without complaint, the two rubbing their lips together.

They had to leave each other so they could breathe, but the passion was still sitting in their eyes. Jungkook swore he could die in that moment and be happy. That may sound cliché, cheesy, sappy - whatever. It didn't make it any less true, and he didn't care if he sounded like some over-the-top boyfriend. He wanted her to be happy. And if she was, that was enough for him.

"I love you," he repeated, and she rubbed his cheek, her eyes soft. "And I think I want to spend the rest of my life with you. I'm sorry if that's too fast, or too dramatic, but I can't fight my feelings. I want to be honest with you, starting now."

Her face said it all, her pecking his cheek and shaking her head. Not from disapproval, rather from disbelief. "Jungkook, can I be honest?"

He was quick to agree, leaning closer on instinct to hear every single letter of what she had to say. "Tell me anything you want," he said, her expression lighting up from his words. She kept her eyes on him and only him. It made him feel like the luckiest man in the world. And then, she spoke.

"I want the same thing."
