" Princess...."

THUD

Your heart skipped a beat.

A cold chill ran down your spine making your body shiver at the sound which your ears yearned to hear, it came out like nothing but a faint, faint whisper.

You lost ability to think. Your fingers clenched around the hand-grip of the umbrella.

' Hallucination. Another hallucination it is.'

Your breathing turned shallow and irregular, you forced your frozen foot to take a step ahead. You're scared, scared to turn around with high hopes and then getting your heart shattered again, after meeting with nothing but thin air.

You started to walk again.

" Princess.......please..."

A voice sweet like caramel and pleasant like melodies now dipped into your ears as a faint and vulnerable whisper, which was just enough to send another wave of down your frozen body.

' Don't turn! Don't you fucking dare to turn!! It's fake!! Shijin.......walk off!'

But this time, you couldn't help but slowly turn around and elevate your eyes up.

The chocolatey pair of dreamy doe eyes filled with desperation and longing, waited to meet the deepest and the most alluring obsidian ocean, and when they did.............

The rain didn't pour,

your eyes did.

You heart threatened to burst out of your chest. Hot tears fled from your glassy obsidian orbs that were locked with the prettiest brown eyes in the world. The umbrella fell off your hand onto the grass with a dull thud.

Almond eyes slowly moved down to scan the man drenched in water and tears. Naked chest and hastily worn pants soaked in water, slicks of light brown locks stuck to his forehead, eyes teary and red, pink and furry bunny ears layed flat beside his head, cheeks and ears flushed in a shade of crimson pink.

Jungkook's rosy lips lifted up give you a tiny and soft smile, a smile of content and satisfaction, a smile of love and affection, a smile that naturally bloomed out of his chest after realising that he's finally able to see you from up-close.

You took small steps towards him, closing the gap between the two of you to stand right infront of him. Yours eyes never left his. Lips slightly trembled and the rain dousing you wet.

Your mind went numb.

He watched how your delicate fingers trembled as they slowly reached up to softly brush against his cheek and trace down his face. His heart hammered painfully in his chest after your state unfolded infront of his eyes, a state in which you couldn't bring yourself to believe that he's even real.

Your eyes wavering between two of his, still not believing that he's right infront of you, your quivering lips parted to form words but the painful lump in your throat didn't help a lot. An your overwhelming emotion flooded out.

" Yo-u...how can...."

He snuffled a puff of air with his parted mouth before gently enveloping his slender fingers around your small wrist and bringing your hand to his lips, only to cutely kiss each of the knuckles.

Faster than the fastest reflex, you yanked your hand back as if it was current that you've touched, and then clamped it over your mouth that fell agape.

" What is happening? Bunny..Jun-ngkook?"

Your entire being quivered, a heavy gush of overwhelming tears washed over you, wetting and soaking you till your neck.

The bunny on the other hand, stupid kept gawping at you with a tiny frown sitting on his face whilst he stood there, clueless and speechless just as you were.It was until you suddenly threw your arms around his neck and wraped them suffocatingly tight around it, body going through several overwhelmed tremors as you sobbed harder. Your trembling lips peppered his face with smooches after smooches, your affection fled like a broken damn consuming his whole being.

" My Jungkook came back!" You exclaimed, face between laughing and crying as you restlessly held his precious face in your hands and smothered every corner of it with a plethora of kisses.

" My Bunny..."

Hands tightened further around him, he sobbed, cradling you in his embrace just as intensely, until your body verged to mould into his, until you're carved deep in his skin, until their souls become one. If it was possible, he still kept bracing his arms harder around your petite body. Your warmth felt indispensable, vital for him, yet it wasn't enough, he needed you closer than this, he needed more of you or he'd lose it all.

" my love, my pretty little bean!" She cupped his face, voice shivering like it never did, her heart exploded with joy, it was unbelievable to her, his presence felt beyond the world. Years of torment felt worthy now.

Tears streaked down his face and he nodded his head vigorously, too contented that his heart felt so full, so alive that it pained and hammered like nothing before. He sobbed awfully as he held her face and hopelessly kissed all the tears away, showering her with twice the amount of affection.

" You came back to me, my home. God, I missed you so much."

" I missed you more, my princess." He cried back as he pressed your head into his firm and warm chest, tightening his grip around you as if you'd slip away from his reach if didn't crush your body into his with entire existence.

" I missed you much! " You sniffed and kept repeating it like a mad woman, arms locked firmly around his neck as you sobbed like a little baby in his neck, vowing to not let him go ever again, to hide in his burly arms and warm embrace for ever and leave the world behind.

" I missed you to death."

" I'll never let a space exist between us again. I swear to God, I'll always keep you in my arms like this, my princess." He declared, resting his forehead over hers, hands soothingly rubbed her back.He kissed her forehead again in a row and then rested his head on her shoulder, face snuggled in her neck.

Only hushed sobs and staggered breaths resonated as he gently swayed their bodies for eternity. The glee slowly surfaced, again. They were united again, back in each other's embrace. " This feels like a dream." You whisper and he hummed back, planting a kiss of adoration on her crown. " I feel alive again, princess. Thank you for not leaving the string of hope, even if I begged you to forget me." You smiled.

You gathered yourself together a few moments later, finally believing that the moment you've been waiting for five utterly painful years has come.

' Five years? Oh wait this-'

You abruptly separated yourself from his warmth and his face turned whiny in milliseconds. Missing your body instantly, he stepped forward to engulf you in his arms again but you lightly pushed him back and exploded.

" You immensely dense buck with a brain smaller than Dora the explora! How dare you lie to me-"You bursted out, suddenly and furiously smashing your fist square on his face. Startling the guy.

" Is this your ' just two weeks, princess' huh?!?! You fucking lying ass of anpanman!"

" Ouch princess! Damn argh-" He winced aloud, massaging his jaw with one hand and capturing down your attacking fists with the other.

" What drama do you watch? The female is supposed to 'smack' the male on chest, not fucking knock him out of the world, princ-"

He was cut short with another hard punch on his face. " Oh seriously?! What drama did you watch, you shit eating bunny? You came after five fucking years. What if I actually moved on?? I could've been fucking married, even a mother you barstard!" You spat irritated, frustrated, vexed and incredibly raged, overwhelmed, elated, euphoric, whilst you lashed out at him.

And all you get in return is a stupid and dumbfounded blink along with one of his bunny ears awkwardly up in the air, flustered and taken back, as if on the verge of crying cause he couldn't quite catch as fast as you said.

' Cute-NOO! So......? Asshol—'

No matter how hard you held yourself from smiling and keep acting all tough and furious, all of it went in vail, when jungkook's lips curved up and stretched into the biggest smile that you've seen as if they would tear off, long pinky bunny ears erected up in the sky, only after he eventually processed what you said earlier.

" I know you would never, my pretty pretty princess could never."

Biting down your own grin. Your creased your eyebrows, narrowing your eyes at him. You finally sighed, he knew you too well.

" There's one thing left."

" Huh? What— "

Was all Jungkook could utter before he was mercilessly pushed and pinned on the pillar behind him, by you who grabbed his face and clashed your lips on his, taking him by surprise.

His eyes almost popped out of his sockets and the sudden adrenaline rush gave him a low-key heart attack. Yet his surprise didn't affect your hunger for his plump and rosy lips. It took him less than a millisecond to rake his tattooed arm around your waist and slam your body against his whilst the other buff hand circled your head to grip your nape and dip his lips further into your cherry-red mellow pair.

Two pair of lips moulding together to complete eachother, radiating off the longing and need through the charismatic, heart flipping kiss.

You couldn't help but smile in between, to which jungkook opened his mouth wider claim that jittery smile of yours. You saw the way tears never stopped rolling down from his closed eyes, your hands held his face, continuously wiping them off of his bread cheeks.

Breathless, you break off the intimate and sweet moment, closing your eyes and connecting your foreheads together, an endless grin on your lips and arms now circled around his thick neck.

The rain united you two..........

Again

•••

" Why are we going up again, princess?" Jungkook inquired, lazily dragging his feet while getting hauled by you, a dazed pout resting on his thin lips.

You pushed open the door of taehyung's cabin and barged inside with him. A sly smirk suddenly stretched onto jungkook's lips.

" Damn princess! Feisty huh?" He wiggled his brows teasingly.

" I didn't know my abs could turn you onn this bad that you couldn't even wait until we're home." He teased and chuckled.

Ignoring his random pervy remarks, you came to a stop and left his hand. You slid the lower compartment of the work table open and bent down to rummage through taehyung's clothes.

Jungkook walked behind you and enveloped your form in a snug back hug. He pecked below your ear tenderly and muffled his face in your hair, relishing the familiar sweet fragrance of your hair that he had been longing for. You grinned in return, the bunny looked touch depraved for years and he was, and you couldn't be more fond of him.

" I hope I didn't miss out on a lot." He murmured, a sad pout formulated itself on his rosy lips as he mindlessly nestled his nose in the crook of neck. You chuckled, ticklish from his tactics, later covered his hands that rested unyielding around your waist. You turned your face sideways and loving cupped the side of his face with your palm as you kissed his puffy cheeks and pout begging to be kissed away. " Absolutely not, my bunny baby. Except that I'm five years older and Taehyung has two toddlers, everything is just as you left." You reassured him, fingers drawing gentle circles on the back of his hand.

Instinctively, his grip hardened as he pressed your back furthermore into his chest. " Hmm. You're mine. I thought it was over when I saw you with the photographer." Jungkook said. " Awww, my dumb little pie. Is my bunno hurt?" You said, completely in awe and adoration. Jungkook hummed as an answer, hopelessly rubbed his cheek against yours, taking your hand up to his furry bunny ears, silently pleading you to pet him. You smiled wide as you earnestly scratched his ears for him, he purred in ecstasy, shutting his eyes close to immerse himself in the feeling. He felt so loved and cherished.

" Don't be. Two years ago namjoon did confess to me but I denied, hmm? Now he's getting married and his girlfriend is pregnant." You told him all without any hesitation. Jungkook smiled at you, eyes crescents, he was bouncing on the inside, absolutely in love with this transparency between the two of you.

" I love you, Shijin. I love you so damn much. I'd love you endlessly for a hundred lives and I still wouldn't be able to love you enough, god." He uttered smiling like an idiot as hurriedly turned you to him and captured alluring lips in a starved yet gentle kiss. You could only smile in his mouth, heart drowned in affection, eyes in longing, mind in his thoughts and body yearned for his touch.

You pulled away after pouring all of yourself in the mind numbing kiss, leaving both of lips red and coated in saliva. You smiled big at him, he chuckled and smooches your lips once more before backing a step away to give you space to breathe.

The merry smile lingered on your lips as you take the hoodie and from the cabinet and hand it to him. " Wear this until home, okay?"  He enthusiastically nodded his head like a good boy. " Yes ma'am!"

Jungkook looked around for a private space to change with a lil crease in his eyebrows, his gaze simultaneously fell on your unwavering one, that were now burning holes in his torso, unblinking, with a straight face. A wave of sheepishness washed over him.

" Princess, is there some-thing wrong ?" He stammered, examining his own naked torso.

You stepped in, standing closer to him. Your hand raised up to stroke and run your fingers along his abs.His eyes darkened, tingles elicited in his chest and lower abdomen.

" Why are you half naked, bunny?"Your eyes lay fixed on his gloriously shimmering chiseled chest and godly carved, toned, eight abs. Your palm urged to touch his warm skin more and more.

" I-I just changed forms and could only grab a pant because I was running after—"

" You're better fully naked, lil bunny."

•••

" Waah! This feels so nostalgic." Jungkook gasped, looking around the big hall in amusement.

You chuckled. " Sure does, bunn."You made your way past him, further inside the villa.

Oh well, you guys were currently in ' Yoon's estate', the same untouched villa. You never even cared to visit in once in five years. Because all you remembered about this place was the moments from the 'date night'. A thought of starting your new life with a new place clicked within you. And that's when you decided to begin it from here.

You told taehyung your appartment's code. Which was the biggest kept secret within years. Now who's gonna tell him that there's no use being so happy about it.

" Have you shifted already, princess?" Jungkook quirked a brow at you. You plopped down on the huge couch in exhaustion.

You tucked your lower lip upon his question before shaking your head in denial.

" I really wanted to live here.........

But...........with you."

His pupils would've turned pink if it was possible. Brown orbs lit up at your remark, instantly filling up with admiration when he looked your way. His heart warmed up a bit.

He fondly smiled, flashing his pearly bunny teeth for you. He stood right infront of where you were sitting. Bending lower to level his face with yours, he planted his palms on the backrest, either side of your head, practically caging you.

Dazed by the proximity and the, now, not-so-playful doe eyes, you leaned back, sinking into your seat whilst he kept leaning in until the tip of his nose touched yours, making wild butterflies erupt in the pits your stomach.

You swore your heart fluttered at the thought of his alluring lips meeting yours. You closed your eyes waiting for the unexpected kiss to come.

Jungkook chuckled sexily instead, dipped his nose in your mellow cheeks and rubbing it there in circles. " Don't you deserve a reward for never giving up on me?" He voice came deeper, evoking goosebumps on your delicious neck.Tension thickened in the air.

" What re-ward?"

The very next second, bunny ears jolted up like antennas, an unleashed chortle bursted out from his chest and he pushed you back, making you fall flat on the couch.

Before you could process, he hovered over you, caged or tackled you to be more precise before he mercilessly tickled you to death.

" Bunny- * giggles* my stomach ache-*giggles louder*" You managed to say after a few ugly rounds of you laughing your ass out. He nonetheless, kept dodging from your kicks and continued tickling your sides, laughing himself, looking at you laugh.

•••

" Jungkook, you're not at all like yourself. You don't bath, you don't eat and you could never sneeze and catch cold. But you did!" You remarked, putting the thermometer back in its shell.

" Hey! I don't even have feve-achhhoo!" Bunny years thrashed forward as he let out a small sneeze, his red nose scrunched, cutely twitching afterwards, sensing for another sneeze on the way. On the top of that, he looks like a living burrito, being wrapped in that thick silky quilt.

'How can anyone look all cutesy when ill ??' You pondered.

He huffed out an exhausted sigh after the last round of unstoppable sneezes.You frowned in worry, sensing his discomfort.

You settled down on the bed's edge, leaning in to cup his face, his skin moderately hot under your touch. Your thumb tenderly caressing his cheekbone.

" Thank God, Your temperature is fine." You sighed in relief, acknowledged it's just common cold.

"See! I told you beforehand, princess." He simply shrugged, wiggling his brows challengingly. " But why are you even catching a fucking cold! How is this possible?" You say in utterly astonished by the new fact.

" For that.....there's a long story waiting for you."

" I know, I was indescribably curious anyways but I was happier that you came back, so I let it be a secret until you tell me yourself." You let your thoughts out.

" Okiee! Come here now, my pretty princess."He smiled sweetly at you, opened the quilt and parted his legs, apparently making a seat for you in his lap before he invited you to claim your rightful place.

You felt a spark in your chest, were you really going to not sleep alone tonight? Really getting your love back to lull you to sleep. Sounds cheesy, but the childish side of you stopped caring for once and just dearly wished to sleep in his embrace.

You settled yourself in the space between his legs, leaning backwards to completely drop your body weight on his torso and rest your head comfortably on his chest.

He pulled back the quilt, covering the both of you in cozy warmth, his hands encircled around your waist and rested on your

Boobs.

" Bunny! You're being a lil too notorious!"

" * Giggles* not my fault princess, they literally called me out to touch em— ouch! Holy sHit! My ribs!" He winced at the sudden attack, when you nudged your elbow in his ribs quite hard. " Serves you right." You snickered, looking back at him and rolled your eyes.

" Sure ma'am. Now the story."

You nodded, shifting in a more intent position, all ears for what was coming next.

" 5 years ago on earth and 2 months ago on eternal land, the moment I crossed the portal, the guards grounded me right there.

I was kept in the underground prison and severely tortured until my wedding day arrived."

Your ears perked up at the mention of his wedding. Your body stiffened up a bit.

" Relax, princess, I didn't marry her"He said sensing you all tensed up. You heaved a sigh that you unknowingly held and nodded afterward.

" My plan was to escape, but it seemed impossible seeing all of the security they put. I almost lost all the hope but then like a saviour, Jin hyung, millitary general you remember?

He put his faith in me, even after all I did, It took me everything to convince him tho, but as I told you, he has a wife and baby too, he could feel my heart unlike 'single-yoongi-hyung'. So he helped me and boom!  I escaped out of the castle on my wedding day."

A smile tugged on your lips. You could imagine everything he said.

" That must've infuriated your family." You guessed and he nodded.

" Of course did. It was huge stain on the diplomacy, honor and prestige of not only the family but the whole estate. I was the crown prince after all."

Jungkook spaced out for moment before he continued.

" Then my first task was to find more such people who had suffered through the same shit. And you know, it might've taken me more than 1 and a half month but surprisingly, there were so many, I mean so fucking many immortals who have been seperated from their mates just because of this stupid custom.

With such mass, it turned into a huge uprising."

You gasped, totally astonished. You couldn't help but jerk your head back to read his expressions, a timid smile lingered on his face.

" Then?? Did the royalty put their guard down? They broke the custom and set you all independent??" You bombarded him with questions, making him chuckle.

" You wish." He scoffed mockingly." Ironically, they fucking put the rest in prison and me, I was given the biggest punishment as I was convicted of quisling the estate, yoongi hyung ordered a damnation to destroy my ' filthy soul' for nation's good and cage the soulless yet alive body for it to rot under the holy river for eternity."

You were speechless, realisation knocked your slow brain, you weren't the only one who suffered, he did too, infact more than you in a way.

" Then ?"

" Then the most unpredictable event, that the world could ever witness, happened. My dad, he appeared in the castle's court. And you know, what did he say??"

" What, bunno??"

" That, I am the reincarnation of someone from the heaven, where my dad currently serves, and the only purpose of my life was to break off this cruel ossification. "

Your mouth fell agape.  " What?!" You shrieked.

" Yess! And you're a part of it! And also, we've been soulmates ever since the beginning of life, in different forms, in different worlds and dimensions at different times and centuries. You know why?"

" Because we're.....m-mates?"

" Exactly! Soulmates!" Jungkook squealed in exhilaration, letting a yank flow down his body that made you flinch along.

" And this was the sole reason of why we met....I mean think of it, princess! Nobody would ever believe that your boyfriend is from a star 100034 light years away from earth. "

You chuckled frantically. " Even I won't!"

" But then again somehow strings pulled and we crossed paths. This somehow was pre-planned!"

" Woah!" You gasped throwing your head back on his shoulder in disbelief and amazement, the theory looked so damn unbelievable. But you couldn't deny the fact that your life did flip upside down the exact moment you met jungkook, 'The Great God of Lust and Sex'.

" So, what happened next?" You pry outta sheer curiosity.

He clears his throat, attempting to get back on the story.

" Yeah, right. Then.... it was quite of a happy moment for me, when Dad scolded hyung in front of the whole court." He cackled mischievously.

" Tsk tsk, you tini lil brat, you'd never ever change, would you?"

A stubborn chuckle was your answer.

" It isn't my fault,It is by default, princess.

Bunnies ARE mischievous and notorious!" He whined in defence.

" Ahh.....whatever, continue! "

" Okay so back on the story. I was given two options. Either I bring you to eternal land, and they turn you into an immortal. OR, I myself give up on all of my powers, positions, titles and immortality, and live on earth like normal human."

The frequency of his voice lowered drastically after that OR. You weren't a fool either to not guess what he must've chosen.

The jolted up, supporting your body on your knees. You turned around, now facing him full fledged. 

" You gave up on literally everything, just for me bunny?" Your heart swelled with an utterly different kind of feeling, an emotion which made you euphoric, upset and proud at the same time.

You intently observed his small gestures with your utmost attention, the way he weakly tried to bring himself to let out a fake smile, how his head hung low and eyes fixed on his fidgeting fingers. " Of course. It wasn't a b-big deal."

How stupid he was to think that he could make you believe that it didn't effect him at all.

Oh, Then who'll pretend like a strong, mature man, who makes sacrifices, accepts and settles with the truth and never gets sad about them?

His furry ears dropped low on the either side of his human ears, his now red nose twitched uncertainly, his mind took him back to the time where he could teleport whenever he wanted, hypnotise anyone, whether it be flying up in the air, moving things around with his eyes, posses the title of being the biggest charmer and eye candy of all time, independently touring around the universe or the assurance that he would never die no matter what, everything crashed right back into his mind,

and lastly a little sniffle just betrayed him.

You heaved out a sigh of acknowledgement, cupped his crimson hued and heated up cheeks between your palm.

" You really think you're a good actor? *Sighs* come here ma pretty lil bean, I can see right through you."

You spread your arms wide, only for him to crash himself in your comforting embrace right that instance. Glassy doe eyes lost their control, pouring out a whole damn hot river of tears on your breast, that had his cheek pressed flush against it. Your fingers affectionately ran along his silky locks and resting on the base of his bunny ears, gently scratching the fur in a soothing way.

" I want e-m back, my powers. It took me so much t-to earn t-that title! Heck! I'm nothing without them, pr-rincess. I'm good at nothing, atleast I could say t-that I had magic! Now I'm absolutely useless."

" Aye...... You're not useless, you're priceless. For me......you are." You planted numerous pecks on the top of his head.

He looked up at you and blinked, flustered, only to get showered with more of those magical kisses on his forehead, whilst you being totally oblivious of the wild fire works in his chest.

His arms tightened around your waist and he buried his face again in your clothed cleavage. " Uh, it was wor-rth it tho." He sniffed, his sobs dying down slowly.

You smiled down at him.

" I'll make sure you feel the same..........everyday, bunny."
