>>> Chapter 14 <<<
When lunch comes, Taehyung and Yoongi wait for Namjoon and Seokjin at the sushi place that they decided to have lunch at.
"Tae tae!!" Seokjin runs to his little brother engulfing him in a tight hug.
"Hi Tae, I'm Namjoon, I've heard so much about you." Namjoon greets Taehyung.
Namjoon is a total stunner, so prim and proper.
"I'm sorry I won't be able to tour you around Tokyo for the next days." Seokjin apologized for being caught up in his job.
"It's okay." Taehyung smiled as he stuffs his mouth with Sashimi.
"But hey, we're going to have the night to hang around and we're going to Okinawa in 3 days!!" Seokjin excitedly reveals.
"Really?!" Taehyung's eyes widened, he has always wanted to see the beautiful beaches of Okinawa.
"But, I hope you don't mind that I'm tagging along?" Namjoon asked Taehyung who quickly shook his head.
"Of course not hyung," Taehyung answered
"I'll book the flights tonight," Namjoon announced.
"Wow, you really won't invite me huh?" Yoongi scoffed playfully.
Seokjin looked at him weirdly, Yoongi is not one to go for holidays, he has gone to all the beautiful and luxurious places in the world, he has seen it all that he would rather stay in and sleep.
"Well, I didn't know you're suddenly feeling 'adventurous' " Seokjin mocks.
"Yah! What's that supposed to mean?" Yoongi shots back.
Taehyung and Namjoon are now laughing at the exchange, Yoongi wraps his arm around Taehyung's shoulder startling the three.
"I'd love to go to Okinawa, what? You're gonna let Tae third wheel you two without company?"
"And don't worry about the flights, we'll take the jet." Yoongi removes his arms from around Taehyung as he continues to eat.
"Jet?" Taehyung's mind is beyond blown away by now.
"He has his own private jet, his parents got him a jet for his 21st birthday," Namjoon explains.
Just how rich is Yoongi? Taehyung thought with wide eyes.
Seokjin shakes his head at his brother with a look of 'don't even try to understand, he really is rich.'
"So what do you have in mind for the next days Tae?" Namjoon asked Seokjin felt guilty that he won't be able to go around in the day.
"I'll probably hang out at home and wait for hyungie then we can go around at night."
"I can take you around in the morning." Yoongi offers.
"You don't have a job or classes?" Taehyung asked feeling stupid as soon as he realized, right, he probably graduated, and well it doesn't look like he needs a job.
"By job you mean annoying me, his parents, and the board members? I think all of us at the company can agree that he needs a couple of days off." Seokjin playfully throws out Yoongi narrowing his eyes at the older guy while Namjoon and Taehyung laugh.

Jungkook @Jeon_Jungkook
I keep missing you...
Jungkook sighed behind the bar counter, he tried to distract himself but he couldn't, all he can think of is Taehyung.
Taehyung, Taehyung, Taehyung; his mind chants.
Jungkook sighed again making Hoseok roll his eyes.
"Look, I know you're not feeling well why don't you just go home and I'll take over okay?" Jungkook shakes his head, if he does that he will just sulk even more and he might give in and annoy Taehyung in his dms.
"Who do you think that guy is?" Jungkook wonders.
"Oh my God Jungkook, didn't we talk about this? Isn't this stupid jealousy put you in this situation right now?" Hoseok lets out an exasperated sigh.
"Also my careless words," Jungkook adds as he slumps down on a stool chair.
"Okay so just shush it, and didn't they mention that he's Seokjin's friend?" Hoseok tried to reason out.
"Technically Tae can do whatever he wants, you broke upright?" Mingyu jumps in the conversation making Jungkook narrow his eyes at him, as Hoseok hits the back of his head.
"Ouch?!" Mingyu complained at Hoseok.
"You need to shut your mouth sometimes." Hoseok hissed at Mingyu.
"It's true." Mingyu reasoned out earning another glare from Jungkook.
"Keep talking and you'll get more than a slap to the head," Jungkook warns.

"You take care of my brother or I won't hesitate to hurt you," Seokjin warns Yoongi before they parted ways that morning, Seokjin going to work while Yoongi and Taehyung to the streets of Tokyo.
"Did you have breakfast?" Yoongi asked as they pulled out of the parking lot.
"We'll go around the main street and we'll have lunch where?" Yoongi asked as he makes a U-turn.
"This tempura and sushi place called Nobu, it's quite expensive but I have enough for us," Taehyung tells Yoongi who simply laughed.
"You know, I'm not being cocky but money really is the last thing you should worry about," Yoongi tells Taehyung with a genuine smile.
"I don't want you to keep treating me." Taehyung reasoned out embarrassed at the number of times Yoongi treated him yesterday.

True to his word, Yoongi grabbed Taehyung's hand as they go around the main street.
At first, Taehyung felt awkward at the gesture, however, there is something about Yoongi's hold that made Taehyung feel comfortable and secured.
Not even a few minutes later, Taehyung eased down into Yoongi's hold, their hands intertwined as they continue to roam around.
Taehyung's eyes widened at everything he sees, the clothes are amazing, every shop is.
"Jimin would love this." Taehyung thinks as he grabs a sweater.
"Let me get that." Yoongi takes the sweater from Taehyung.
"No, it's okay, this is for my best friend," Taehyung explains as he took the sweater from Yoongi's hold proceeding to the counter to pay for it.
As Taehyung was paying for the sweater, he spots a key chain with some tiny wifi sign in it, beside it is what looks like a small shot glass, all reminding him of Jungkook.
He sighed taking the two items, putting them on the counter together with the sweater as he pays for it.
Taehyung and Jungkook are no longer together but maybe he can still give it to Jungkook, it shouldn't be too bad right? Taehyung thinks.
(Taehyung dms Jimin on Twitter)
Taehyung: Jiminieeee

Taehyung: Of course I do 😍
Taehyung: I'll text you later okay? Hyung and I will be going for lunch
Jimin: Yoongi?
Taehyung: Yeah hyungie's friend 🤗
Jimin: Okay! Have fun Tae tae 😍
Before going for lunch Taehyung spots a shop full of vintage cameras.
"Hyung, I'll just take a look, it'll be quick," Taehyung tells the older who simply nodded following Taehyung from behind.
Taehyung spots the film camera he's been looking for and have been saving up for.
He looks at the price in Yen, taking out his calculator to convert it into won, Taehyung let out a disappointed smile.
It's too expensive, it's times three of the amount he had saved up.
Next time, Taehyung sighed as he went out of the shop.
"I'll just go to the restroom then we can go for lunch?" Taehyung tells Yoongi who simply nodded telling Taehyung that he will wait for him there.

"Wow, Japanese food is really something else," Taehyung mumbled as he continues to savor the taste of the crispy tempura.
"I miss authentic Korean food though," Yoongi tells Taehyung who tilts his head in question.
"How long has it been since you went back to Korea?"
"Almost a year," Yoongi tells Taehyung who just nodded.
"Do you plan on visiting soon?" Taehyung asked.
"Probably, I might have a reason to visit now so." Yoongi winks, Taehyung looked down blushing hard.
Is Yoongi flirting with him?
Why is Taehyung so flustered?
"You should visit," Taehyung tells Yoongi not knowing what to say.
After they finished lunch, Yoongi settled the bill after winning the argument with Taehyung on who is supposed to pay.
"You two are a very cute couple." The waiter says in Japanese as he takes Yoongi's card.
"Thank you," Yoongi responds in Japanese with a smile, that being the only thing that Taehyung understood.
"What did he say?" Taehyung quietly asked watching the waiter walk away as he eats the remaining ice cream that he ordered for dessert.
"He said we're a very cute couple." Yoongi nonchalantly tells Taehyung who almost choked on his ice cream.
Yoongi smirked at how easily riled up Taehyung is.
They walk back to Yoongi's Ferrari, Taehyung still can't get over that he has been going around Japan in a Red Ferrari.
Before Yoongi started the car he reached for a bag in the back seat.
"This is for you."
"What's this for?" Taehyung asked confused, it's not his birthday or anything.
"It's my welcome to Japan gift a bit late but you know." Yoongi shrugged with a smile.
Taehyung carefully opened the bag revealing a box, Taehyung's eyes widen as his heart jumps out of his chest.
"No way." Taehyung chuckled excitedly as he takes the film camera out of the box.
This is the exact film camera that he wants, the exact film camera that he has been eyeing earlier.
Then it hits Taehyung, this camera is expensive as hell.
"Hyung, I'm sorry but, I can't accept this." Taehyung sighed putting the camera back in the box.
"Of course you can," Yoongi answered.
"It's too expensive, I can't" Taehyung pushed the bag back to Yoongi.
"It's nonrefundable," Yoongi tells Taehyung, it's the truth.
"Hyung, I have to pay you back but I don't have enough yet," Taehyung tells Yoongi the truth.
"Tae, it's a gift." Yoongi chuckles.
"It's too much," Taehyung argues.
"Please just take it okay?" Yoongi takes Taehyung's hand in his as he begs for the other to accept the gift.
"It will make me extremely happy if you accept this." Taehyung sighed giving in.
"Okay." Taehyung shyly takes his hand back from Yoongi feeling a sense of guilt in his heart, he tried to push it back by focusing his attention on the camera as Yoongi drives to Ueno park.
"Can we really still catch the Cherry Blossoms?" Taehyung asked as he keeps himself busy with the film camera.
"Yeah, it started late this year but this week is the last week the cherry blossom will be in sight according to the forecast," Yoongi informs Taehyung.
Yoongi's heart flutter watching how happy he made Taehyung with this gesture that he considers is small.
Taehyung deserves the world, and Yoongi is ready to give it all to him.

Have some faith
Before getting out of the car, Taehyung decided to check his Twitter dms to see if Jimin sent him anything.
And maybe, Taehyung shouldn't have.
(Jungkook dms Tae's Twitter)
Jungkook: Hi Tae
Jungkook: I miss you
Taehyung: Jungkook...
Jungkook: I know
Jungkook: I just miss you okay?
Jungkook: I'll wait for you
Jungkook: You know that right?
Taehyung: Kookie please not now
Jungkook: I know
Jungkook: I'll wait for you okay? I love you
Taehyung lets out a sigh as he locks his phone placing it in his small bag.
"Everything okay?" Yoongi noticed Taehyung's change of mood.
"Yeah." Taehyung lies.
"You can talk to me you know," Yoongi assures Taehyung.
"It's just... I don't know." He doesn't know where to start.
"Let's walk?" Yoongi offers.
As they began walking, Taehyung takes his time to appreciate the beautiful bloom of late spring, yet his heartaches remembering the man he left in Seoul.
"Boyfriend?" Yoongi guessed.
"Ex-boyfriend." Taehyung clarifies.
Taehyung wants to slap himself, why did he feel the need to clarify that?
It's the truth though.
"So, you still want him back, he still wants you back is that it?" Yoongi asked in a weak voice.
"I don't know honestly. I was hoping Japan will help me clear my mind before I have to face him again." Taehyung sighed as he snaps a picture of the scenery before him with his new camera.
"It's still what your second day? You have a lot of time left, I suggest you just enjoy and let tomorrow worry about itself." Yoongi shrugs.
"But I can't stop thinking about him. It's been just a few days too since we broke up." Taehyung explained putting his camera down.
Yoongi takes Taehyung's hands in his, Taehyung furrowed his brows at the other's actions.
"I have a proposition." Yoongi begins.
"Huh?"
"For the remaining days that you will be here, let me help you forget, and just have fun." Yoongi offers looking into Taehyung's eyes.
Taehyung's heart jumped at Yoongi's words.
What's that supposed to mean?
"What's in it for you?" Taehyung dared to ask.
"Just seeing you smile is enough," Yoongi answered, eyes full of hope and adoration.
Taehyung can feel Yoongi's words strike a chord in his heart, as images of Jungkook's face enters his mind.
"I won't ask anything from you Taehyung, no promises, no nothing. Just let me help you be happy even just while you're here, just until you're here."
Taehyung doesn't know what to do as Yoongi looks at him expectantly.
This is what Taehyung wanted right? To be happy, to forget, to clear his head, and Yoongi's offering to help so why is he in such a struggle?
"So, what do you say?"
Taehyung sighed, as he nods.
"Okay."
He is so going to regret this.
