The town’s ice rink was bustling with laughter and cheer, twinkling Christmas lights reflecting off the smooth, glistening surface. Jungkook stood by the edge, gripping the railing with white-knuckled hands, his eyes wide as he watched skaters glide gracefully across the rink.
Jeon Jungkook
Jeon Jungkook
Do I really have to do this?
Jungkook whined, his lips forming a pout as he turned to Taehyung.
Taehyung, already lacing up his skates, smirked at the omega’s apprehension.
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
Of course, you do. You can’t celebrate Christmas without ice skating. It’s like a rule.
Jungkook crossed his arms, his cheeks puffing out.
Jeon Jungkook
Jeon Jungkook
Says who?
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
Says me.
Taehyung straightened up, extending a hand to Jungkook.
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
Come on, bunny. I won’t let you fall.
Jungkook hesitated, eyeing Taehyung’s outstretched hand.
Jeon Jungkook
Jeon Jungkook
You promise?
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
Bunny Promise..
Taehyung said with a soft smile, his voice warm and reassuring. While Jk shake his head in fear.
Moments later, Jungkook found himself wobbling on the ice, clinging to Taehyung’s arm like his life depended on it.
Jeon Jungkook
Jeon Jungkook
Why is this so hard?
Jungkook groaned, his legs shaking as he tried to balance.
Taehyung chuckled, his deep voice vibrating through the air.
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
You’re doing great, Jungkookie. Just relax.
Jeon Jungkook
Jeon Jungkook
Relax?
Jungkook yelped as his skates slid unexpectedly. He tightened his grip on Taehyung’s arm, his eyes wide with panic.
Jeon Jungkook
Jeon Jungkook
I’m going to die!
Taehyung laughed, wrapping an arm securely around Jungkook’s waist to steady him.
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
You’re not going to die. I’ve got you.
Jungkook looked up at him, his cheeks flushed from both embarrassment and the cold.
Jeon Jungkook
Jeon Jungkook
You’d better.
As they slowly moved across the rink, Jungkook began to find his rhythm—or at least, he stopped shrieking every few seconds. Taehyung stayed close, his arm still around Jungkook’s waist, guiding him gently.
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
You’re getting the hang of it.
Taehyung said, grinning.
Jungkook shook his head.
Jeon Jungkook
Jeon Jungkook
No, I’m just leaning on you the whole time. You’re doing all the work.
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
I don’t mind!
Taehyung replied, his tone soft.
Jungkook glanced at him, startled by the sincerity in his voice. Their eyes met, and for a moment, the bustling noise of the rink faded away.
Taehyung’s gaze was warm and steady, his lips curving into a small smile. Jungkook’s heart fluttered, and he quickly looked away, his cheeks burning.
Jeon Jungkook
Jeon Jungkook
Okay, I think I can try on my own now.
Jungkook said, straightening up.
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
You sure?
Taehyung asked, his brow raised.
Jungkook nodded.
Jeon Jungkook
Jeon Jungkook
I can do this. Just… don’t go too far, okay?
Taehyung stepped back, keeping a close watch as Jungkook took a tentative step forward. For a brief moment, Jungkook seemed to have it until his skate caught on a groove in the ice.
With a yelp, Jungkook stumbled forward, but before he could hit the ice, Taehyung swooped in, catching him effortlessly. They ended up tangled together, Jungkook sprawled against Taehyung’s chest.
Jung Hoseok
Jung Hoseok
I thought you said you had it.
Taehyung teased, his voice low and amused.
Jungkook pouted, his nose scrunching adorably.
Jeon Jungkook
Jeon Jungkook
I did! The ice betrayed me. 😤
Taehyung chuckled, brushing a stray strand of hair from Jungkook’s face.
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
Guess I’ll have to stick close to you then.
He then whispers a word lowly.
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
Forever… 💓
Jungkook’s pout deepened, but he didn’t move away. Instead, he muttered under his breath.
Jeon Jungkook
Jeon Jungkook
You’re so annoying. 😤
Taehyung grinned, his eyes twinkling.
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
And yet, here you are, clinging to me like a koala.
Jungkook glared at him half-heartedly, but his lips twitched, threatening to curve into a smile.
By the end of the session, Jungkook had managed to skate a few feet on his own though Taehyung was never more than an arm’s length away.
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
See? I told you you’d be fine!
Taehyung said as they stepped off the rink.
Jungkook huffed, his cheeks still flushed.
Jeon Jungkook
Jeon Jungkook
Fine. But next time, we’re doing something I’m good at.
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
Like what?
Taehyung asked, tilting his head.
Jeon Jungkook
Jeon Jungkook
Baking! 😌
Jungkook replied confidently.
Taehyung laughed.
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
Okay.. But for now, how about some hot chocolate? My treat.
Jungkook’s pout softened into a shy smile.
Jeon Jungkook
Jeon Jungkook
Okay. But only if it has extra marshmallows.
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
Anything for you, bunny!
Taehyung said, his tone light but filled with affection.
As they walked away, side by side, their laughter echoed through the frosty air, warming the hearts of everyone around them.
