.

Dr. Yoongi sighed while checking the fainted man's nerves and observing other things. Jin was standing on the other side of the bed, his forehead sweating nervously as he stared at his husband who had fainted.

"Seems like he had a panic attack, blood pressure was abnormally high few minutes ago with all the tears, it says a lot" Yoongi spoke as he injected something into Jungkook's arm.

"Jin!! You need to take care of him well. People require extra care in this situation, it can get really critical if not taken care of" he added while rubbing the cotton pad in place of the injected spot.

"W-what condition?" Seokjin asked with furrowed brows and Yoongi looked at him in shock.

"You don't know that he's pregnant?" he asked and Jin's eyes went wide as saucers along with Yoongi's.

"W-what? ..... He's pregnant?" Jin looked at Jungkook, his eyes still closed "w-with o-our child?" he stuttered as tears gathered in his orbs. Yoongi facepalmed himself.

"Of course, you idiot!" Yoongi scoffed "and he's suffering from MDD as well, so need to take extra care of him or you'll end up losing both of them!" he added.

Seokjin fell on the bed, gripping the sheets in his fist, grasping the information.

Jungkook is pregnant.

He has MDD?

"WTF is MDD?" Jin spoke out loud, although it was supposed to be a thought.

"Major depressive disorder" Yoongi replied calming as he stood from Jungkook's side and went to sit beside Jin who seemed to be on the verge of crying.

"It's really serious mental health condition, usually due to the person suffering a series of traumatic events or constant stress."

"He needs his husband, to take care of him" Yoongi emphasized as he patted the elder's back.

"He's suffering from clinical depression and that condition is not good for someone who is pregnant" he added as Jin sobbed.

"Yoongi-ah" he sobbed again "I'm going to be a father?!" he whispered deeply, feeling his heart swell in happiness. Yoongi smiled.

"Yes, you dumbo" he spoke.

Jin dropped Dr. Min to the door before running back to his room and sitting beside Jungkook, caressing his head as he placed his other palm on his clothed stomach. Jin smiled.

"Mom please-"

"I'm sorry Jungkook but this is the best for you."

"Mom!!"

"Mom please don't leave me with dad, please mom, I'll be a good boy, mom please!! MOM!!"

The woman left with the blond man, who was supposedly her boyfriend after she divorced Jeon Jung Hyun. The small 9-year-old boy was left alone, he looked to his side, his father's piercing gaze on him as he gritted his teeth.

"SHE LEFT BECAUSE OF YOU!!" the man yelled as he gripped his son's wrist painfully tight and twisted it.

"N-no appa, it hurts p-please."

"SHUT UP!! You are the biggest mistake of my life!" he yanked the boy to the floor as the little boy cried more, getting his knees hurt.

"I'm s-sorry a-appa, I'm s-sorry" the boy chanted sorry like a broken record as he hugged himself, shivering on the cold floor.

10 years later

The boy cried more and more. Life was a war to fight every day. With an abusive father and a stepmom who wasn't fond of him at all. Jungkook's life was living hell.

"OH MY GOD!! JUNGKOOK COME HERE!!!" the woman yelled in her high-pitched voice making Jungkook jolt up from his bed, wiping his cheeks hurriedly as he ran downstairs to his stepmom.

"Y-yes mom?" he spoke timidly seeing the woman fuming in anger, the cup of coffee in her hand as she stormed toward the shaking boy and splashed the coffee on his face.

Jungkook squeaked, his voice getting stuck in his throat at the painful burn caused by the hot coffee, he hurriedly wiped it away from his skin, feeling the burns too much.

Jungkook trembled as his skin burned more, when his mom stepped forward and slapped him. His father, sitting on the couch, ignoring the two.

Jungkook fell to floor, crying silently, he knew what was coming and it did come. He gasped, sucking in sharp breath with every hit on his body with the stick.

"How *hit* many *hit* times *hit* do I have to *hit* tell you?? *hit* To not put *hit* extra sugar *hit* in my coffee?? DO you want to kill me *hit* with diabetes???" The woman yelled while hitting her stepson.

Jungkook shivered, whimpered but took it all without protest. He was used to such treatment by now.

"I'm s-sorry mom, I-I'll n-not d-do i-it n-next t-time please" he begged to the woman who gritted her teeth.

"I don't know why you're still living in my house. Should've thrown you out long ago." she spat and threw the stick away.

"Get the fuck out of my sight" she ordered and Jungkook complied, holding his hand in other and limping to the kitchen to clean the mess the silt coffee had created. Jung Hyun did not even bother to give a glance to his son or wife.

Weeks later

"Here!!" Jung Hyun handed a plastic bag to Jungkook, who looked up at his father with a smile. His father bought something for him after years, he felt happy.

"T-thank you appa" he said as he opened the bag, a black and white tuxedo. A bunny smile made its way to his face as he looked at the outfit thoroughly.

"Is there any occasion?" the boy asked.

"Yes!!" Jung Hyun replied as he saw his wife entering the room.

"You're getting married" she spoke venomously and Jungkook's smile faltered. He looked at his father with shock.

"W-what?" he whispered, not being able to speak out loud.

"You're getting married tomorrow and we're not taking no as an answer. It's important for my company" Jung Hyun emphasized.

"B-but a-appa, I'm just 20" Jungkook spoke, controlling his tears that threatened to fall.

"You're turning 21 soon, also what are you even useful for?" His stepmom spoke up this time. Jungkook, for the first time in years, glared at her, she was taken aback.

"I'm n-not marrying anyone, I s-still have a life of my own-"

*thud*

His cheek flushed red and a handprint shaped on it as he fell to the side, he looked above to see his father angrily looking at him.

"LIKE YOUR MOM SAID, WE DON'T TAKE NO AS AN ANSWER" Jung Hyun yelled as he kicked Jungkook's thighs, the poor boy yelped, retreating backward on the floor, away from his father.

"I-I d-don't want t-to marry p-please" he pleaded.

"WHy?? Do you also want to become a whore like your mother was?" his mom gritted.

"N-no-"

"Either you're marrying tomorrow or I'm throwing you on the streets. Choice is yours" Jung Hyun announced, bending down and pulling Jungkook by his hair, a harsh slap landing on his cheek.

"I d-don't w-want t-to m-marry-"

With the Jung Hyun's limit's broke and he started beating the shit out of the crying and whimpering boy.

Kicking, punching him in stomach, slapping his pale cheeks until the boy's confidence broke down completely and he submitted to their will.

He was left alone to cry out the night, because he had to marry an unknown man the next day.

-

Jungkook writhed with his eyes closed, air being knocked out of his lungs as he opened his mouth to breath. The boy cried in his sleep, mumbling words like 'please' and 'I'm sorry'.

Jin got up from his sleep seeing his husband grasping for air and mumbling in sleep, he held the boy close to himself, trying wake him by rubbing his forehead and shaking him a little.

After continuous trying, Jungkook woke up with a gasp, his eyes spilling tears as he sobbed, still not out of his

"Nobody wants m-me" he yelped, "I'm sorry" he pleaded, crying as Jin shook him out of his daze, hugging his figure tightly.

"Shhh baby look I'm here!!" Jin softly whispered while pulling Jungkook on his lap. The younger unconsciously leaned into the touch, snuggling closer to his husband.

Jungkook finally woke up, his breathing calmed down, doe eyes shedding tears, his arms wrapped around Jin for dear life as he shivered.

"Hyung!" Jungkook sobbed and Jin replied by running soothing circles on his back.

"W-will y-you l-leave me as well?"

Jin's heart pained hearing the painful voice, but he composed himself. He had to be strong, for Jungkook and the baby.

"No doll, I would never leave you" he said as he retreated back a little to cup his husband's plush red cheeks. Jungkook's breath evened hearing that, he hugged Jin again, resting his head on his shoulder as he pouted, rubbing his red eyes.

Jungkook stayed like that for what felt like hours, closest to Jin, not wanting to let go. Jin was continuously rubbing his back to soothe him. Dr. Min had warned him already, he didn't want any threat towards any of the two.

Jungkook needs love, care and attention. and Jin will give him all.

"Jungkook?"

"Umm?" Jungkook whined with pouty lips as he retreated back from the hug, his gaze down as he bit his lips in nervousness, looking elsewhere.

"My precious doll" he said as held his chin softly, bopping his nose with his own which made younger smile.

He made Jungkook sit on the bed as he got off the bed, standing on the floor as he went on his knees in front of Jungkook.

Jungkook's eyes widened but he stayed still. Too shocked to contemplate the situation.

Jin grabbed his husband's feet softly, placing his head on them as he mumbled.

"I'm sorry baby, I didn't mean to yell at you. It just that I don't want to lose you and that Namjoon was getting on my nerves way too much" he spoke with a pout as he heard the younger giggle.

He looked up to see a beautiful smile.

"Why do you always drop on my feet hyung?" Jungkook questioned as he opened his arms for Jin. Jin pouted as he embraced Jungkook, tightly hugging him, snuggling into his neck.

"Why can't I? You're my husband. I would even worship you happily" he spoke while kissing his temple. Jungkook smiled again, patting his husband's back while threading his fingers into his hair soothingly.

"I'm sowwy" the voice came out muffled against the younger's neck who chuckled. "It's okay hyung" he replied. But then something popped in Jin's mind, and his eyes perked up.

He retreated to face his husband who frown, Jin bit his lips while fiddling his fingers. "I- I want to inform y-you s-something" he stammered.

"What is it?" Jungkook asked curiously.

He leaned forward, grabbing Jungkook's hand softly and placing it on the younger's stomach and then looked into his eyes "Y-you are pregnant" he informed, eyes dripping happiness and affection.

Jungkook's eyes went wide for a moment, he stayed quiet and still, basking in the information as the corners of his lips twitched. Tears reached his eyes as he smiled widely, placing both hands on his stomach.

"I-I'm p-pregnant?" he sobbed in happiness. Jin grinned his pretty smile as he hugged Jungkook, letting him bury his face in his chest.

"Yes. Dr. Min told me yesterday when he checked you. We're gonna be parents soon" he spoke as Jungkook sobbed more, hugging his husband tightly.

He felt so happy after a long time that he couldn't stop his tears. His heart swelled happily.

"I'm so happy hyung" he whispered.

"Me too doll" the elder replied.

They both stayed in that way for a few minutes, celebrating their happy moment in each other's embrace.

✦

Seokjin had gone crazy.

Yes, crazy was the right word. He didn't let Jungkook even step a foot on the floor, preparing breakfast on his own, doing dishes, cleaning, whole household work on his own. Jungkook felt embarrassed and giddy at the same time seeing him.

Embarrassed because he made Jin do household chores and giddy that Jin loved and took care of him this way. It made him realize that Jin, unlike other people in his life, cared for him genuinely.

Jin even informed Mr. and Mrs. Kim about Jungkook's pregnancy and practically ordered his mom to come to their place and take care of Jungkook and the child. Mrs. Kim accepted the offer gladly.

"So just list down the things you don't like, I'll throw them out. Only the things you like will stay here." Jin chimed "and here's a list of maternity doctors, just choose one, we'll book appointment. I want my child and my husband to be healthy" he continued.

Jungkook smiled while nodding. He loved this version of Jin. He was loving the affection. He didn't want it to end. Maybe this was the time to let go off past and embrace the present, he thought.

✦

One month later

Seokjin was an overprotective father. Okay damn.

"Eat this!"

"I don't want to-"

*glare*

"Jeez okay" Jungkook laughed nervously as he opened his mouth to eat the fruit. Jin happily fed him.

"You need to follow a strict diet for a healthy baby. We're not taking no as an answer" he ordered and Jungkook smiled sheepishly, mouth full of fruits.

Mrs. Kim chuckled seeing the couple. She realized how good of a decision it was to marry Seokjin to Jungkook. They have grown into a loving couple.

She got up and patted Jungkook's head lovingly after kissing the back of his head. "Eat well my baby" she spoke lovingly.

Jungkook nodded. All these days he was overwhelmed with affection. Mr. Kim, Mrs. Kim and Jin were just too much loving towards him.

It was like after so many years, he finally got the family and love he yearned for. He was so thankful to his destiny for this.

✦

Jungkook was standing in the balcony, looking at night sky as air brushed on his face, he closed his eyes, taking in the soft breeze.

His trauma never triggered him after that specific night, Jin made sure to never hurt him. He felt so lucky to have a man like him in his life.

He was healing. His baby was healing him, his family was healing him, his husband was healing him. It felt like everything and everyone around him wanted to overcome the horrendous past and live his present to the fullest.

-and he will gladly move on from that.

Suddenly he felt a warm figure engulfing him. He smiled as the arms were wrapped around his waist and a chin placed on his shoulder.

"What are you doing?" the elder asked, pout adorning his cherry lips as he gazed at the beauty of his husband in the moonlight.

"Just taking some fresh air" Jungkook replied, rubbing the back of his hand soothingly.

Then they both looked up at the sky, moon shining beautifully with stars adorning here and there. Some of them twinkling too which brought smiles to their faces.

"Kook?" the elder called and Jungkook hummed in reply.

"I love you!"

Jungkook stilled. This man is gonna be the death of him with these big confessions out of nowhere.

Taking in the information, his face flushed as he looked down.

"I wanted to tell you since a long time so-"

"I love you too- hyung" Jungkook replied shyly making his husband blush this time.

Jungkook leaned back, placing his head on the elder's shoulder. Air brushing his hair away from his eyes.

"I have always loved you since I saw you from the aisle" the younger confessed and Jin grinned widely.

"Oh my god, that's something I didn't know" he joked and Jungkook giggled.

"Well, now you know" Jungkook replied, earning a kiss on his lips from the elder.

He turned around to face Jin, getting on his tiptoes to cup his husband's jawline between his sweater paws as he leaned forward, hovering his lips on the elder's.

"I love you" he confessed again.

"I love you too" Jin replied, eyes closed.

Then the distance between their lips was eliminated as their breath mingled. They tasted each other, lips overlapping each other as they sucked on them.

Jin held Jungkook's waist firmly, pulling him towards himself as he kissed back with more passion, tilting his face to the side. Jungkook smiled into the kiss.

The kiss was pure, filled with love, devotion, longing and acceptance. The moonlight blessed them with its silver glow.

Oh, it felt so euphoric to be in love.
