Let's take this slow

One day at a time

We'll go in this adventure

I'll be your partner in crime.

Let's take a step

And continue this path

To the ends of the earth

We'll endure life's wrath.

Life has thrown many boulders on their way but love is something that can't be curbed. Even after the many painful days in their life, Taehyung and Jungkook were growing together. They were learning how to embrace themselves and their feelings.

They were growing closer everyday without even realizing it. Everything felt natural. Like it was supposed to be that way from the very beginning. There were no problems in the past few months and Taehyung had successfully completed eight months of his pregnancy.

The boy had grown chubbier and his baby bump was now big. He looked absolutely adorable and Jungkook was having a really hard time controlling his feelings. To keep his heart at peace he would make suttle moves like hugging Taehyung in the morning and after returning from work, cuddling at night and giving the baby bump kisses whenever he got the chance.

Taehyung was happy would be an understatement. He was ecstatic. Jungkook did not talk to him a lot but the way he took care of him and those little gestures of his said more than words ever will. After the confrontation with his father everything had been good so far. There were no conspiracies against him or his husband and he was thankful for that.

He had planned a few more blows on his father but after Ji-ung's constant nagging he decided to wait till the end of his pregnancy. Also he wanted to make sure that there was no harm to his baby because Han-Gyoel could not be trusted. The only thing he was constant at was trying to persuade Seojun to help them. After so many efforts he could also see some changes in the other. Seojun had told him about a few deals that Han-Gyoel had signed recently and for Taehyung it was a big progress. He knew that soon Seojun would definitely help them in finding evidence against that man. All in all his life that been progressing positively.

Even today he was going to the place he had been wishing to visit for so long. As the car came to a halt he slowly got down from the vehicle. "I'll be back after a few minutes." He told the driver and started walking down the trail. When he finally made it to his destination he looked at the structure with tear filled eyes.

Here lies

Jeon Haewon

(1990-2019)

You'll be loved for eternity.

"Hey Noona. I hope you're happy up there." He said as he placed a flower on the grave. Smiling sadly he caressed his bump. "You'll be an aunt soon. We'll welcome your nephew next month. Today is the last day of my eighth month and I can't wait to hold his naughty melon in my hands." He inhaled trying his best to control his tears. He was here to give a happy news for god's sake. Was it that hard for his tears to listen to him once?

"I'm sorry for everything Noona. I'm so sorry." He burst out unable to control himself anymore. His tears cascaded down his cheeks as he sniffled silently. He was so engrossed in his own emotional turmoil that he didn't even hear the footsteps from behind him.

It was only when two arms snaked around his big bump that his eyes widened at the realisation of the new but known presence. He leaned back, his body coming in contact with the muscular chest and closed his eyes trying to stop his tears.

"Noona I'm sorry I didn't visit you for so long. I was caught up with things as you can see." The ravenette started as he eyed the gravestone sadly. "We'll be starting a new phase in our life. It was unexpected but one of the most beautiful changes so far. I'm so thankful for this. Life is finally giving me happiness and I want to embrace it with my everything. After thinking about it for months I've decided to forget the past and continue my life with Taehyung. Without any hatred or complaints. I wanted you to be the first one to know about this."

Taehyung was dumbfounded. He slowly turned around afraid that everything he heard was just a hallucination but when he saw the dark orbs staring back at him with love he knew that it was nothing but the reality. His breath hitched as Jungkook pulled him closer and smiled ever so lovingly.

Taehyung smiled back as fresh tears ran down his cheeks. They were tears of happiness. Happiness that made him feel alive and free. He gently held the ravenette's face in his palms and then joined their lips. The kiss was full of love and longing. It was full of promises that their hearts made to each other.

They pulled away, the smile never leaving their countenance. "Do you really mean everything you said?" Taehyung asked timidly. He wanted assurance. It was still unbelievable for him. Jungkook looked at his unsure form with love and said "I could not keep myself away from you. I told you to listen to your heart so how can I not listen to mine. Everything can't get better in a day but we both can atleast try. Forgetting those painful memories will be hard but together we can make new happy memories that will eventually make us forget the past. Life is not a fairytale but together we can atleast create something similar to it. I don't want to fight you anymore. I don't want to live in the past. Let's start our life anew."

Taehyung nodded his head vigorously earning a giggle from the ravenette. He embraced the male tightly and smiled as he took in his favourite scent. The two lovers stood there entangled together with shining forms. Everything was finally getting better or........

Was it just the calm before the storm?
