"When you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible."- When Harry Met Sally

It was the next day and Tzuyu laid awake in her bed attempting to rub the exhaustion from her eyes. A familiar scent caught her nose and she looked down to find that she was wearing Jungkook jacket and still donned her wedding dress.

She eased herself up in a sitting position which she immediately regretted. She was hungover; had a pulsing migraine and was nauseated. To add to that, she was parched.

She decided to freshen up first, neatly folding Jungkook's jacket with a smile on her lips, setting it aside on her bed. She slipped out of her dress and changed into comfy grey, plaid trousers and a white camisole. Her hair, now frazzled was then loosened and she allowed it to glide over her shoulders. As she splashed water on her face, she couldn't help but feel like she was forgetting something rather important.

As soon as she brought her head back up, her migraine began to hurt ten times more and she whined at how horrible she felt. She wanted water- now.

She left her room and headed for the stairs, ensuring that she was careful with each step. After reaching almost midway down, she stopped in her tracks.

From the staircase, she peered into the living room and was surprised to see Jungkook sitting on the sofa accompanied by her mom and Chaeyoung.

The sofa was facing the opposite way but she could see that they were looking through some albums and were having a friendly conversation.

A wave of happiness rushed over her but was replaced with a sickly feeling coming up her throat so she quickly but quietly ran back to the confinements of her room.

Chaeyoung turned to look up the stairway and told the other seat occupants that she was going to check to see if Tzuyu had woken up as yet. It was almost nine in the morning.

"You okay?" asked Chaeyoung.

"Do I look okay?"

"... Guess what? Jungkook's here."

Tzuyu breathed heavily over the bowl before emptying whatever remained in her gut for the third time. Chaeyoung looked at her and smirked watching her flush the toilet and proceeding to brush her teeth in the bathroom.

"Are you pregnant?"

Tzuyu who was in the middle of rinsing spat out water all over the bathroom mirror and turned around to stare at her sister with a horrified look.

"What? No!"

"Okay, okay," Chaeyoung mused, "I'm just messing with you. Can I get you anything?"

Tzuyu wiped her face with a green towel and left the bathroom to sit at in front of her bed.

"Yeah. Can you bring me some painkillers and a bottle of water, please?

"Sure thing. I'll be right back." Chaeyoung said while leaving the room.

Nearly five minutes had passed when Tzuyu heard a knock on her door. She looked up at the opening door and saw Jungkook stepping in grinning when he saw her. He was dressed casually in a red plain T-shirt and jeans reaching his knees. She smiles weakly at him.

"Hi."

"Hey," he said joining her on the carpeted floor, "You don't look so good."

He handed her the requested items and she swallowed the tablets and drank the water after thanking him.

She rested the almost empty bottle at her side and opened her arms out towards him. Jungkook more than willing, consumed her in his warmth; she wrapped her arms around his waist and snuggled into his shoulder. All she wanted at that moment was to be held by him.

"My head hurts so much right now," she slurred.

Jungkook lifted his hand and gently rubbed the very top of her head causing Tzuyu to close her eyes and sigh at the soothing feeling. It was doing wonders.

"Hey, Jungkook?"

"Yes?"

"We didn't do anything stupid last night, did we?

"No - like what?"

Tzuyu opened her eyes slowly but closed them back and held him a little more tighter.

"Forget it. It doesn't matter. I just had something on my mind. That's all."

"Okay."

"What brings you here today, Jungkook?"

"Last night, I told you that I was going to come by to spend some time with you."

"Oh... yeah."

Thinking about it, she remembered him telling her exactly that after Nayeon had given them a lift. She was always one to hold her alcohol well but it seemed to had messed with her memory a bit.

As Tzuyu rested in his arms, Jungkook looked around her simple, yet nicely decorated room with its blue bed sheets, cream coloured walls with a few portraits of paintings and some framed maps. However, what was most noticeable of all was that the room smelled like her. Just like Tzuyu.

Some time had passed when Tzuyu loosened out of the embrace and beamed at him saying that she had an idea. Jungkook watched her curiously as she got up and went over to her closet and pulled out a jacket. Jungkook was glad that she had mostly gone back to her usual self and was spewing questions on what she had in mind.

"You'll see."

Ms Chou was occupied reading the label of the fancy wine Jungkook had brought. He said something about his dad insisting that he brought something and she was grateful.

She looked up from the kitchen and saw Jungkook along with her daughter coming down the stairs and they were coming her way.

"Morning Sunshine. Feeling better?"

"Morning, mom. I feel a lot better." Tzuyu looked in the cupboard to find her trusty old basket.

"Thanks again for the wine, Jungkook." Ms Chou said grinning from ear to ear.

"No problem." He was pleased that it was received well.

Ms Chou looked over and saw that Tzuyu had produced a sizeable woven basket.

"Where are you two off to?"

"We'll be in the orchard at the back doing some harvesting," Tzuyu replied.

"Okay. Well have fun and turn on the pipes for me when you get out there."

"Sure." Tzuyu took Jungkook's and and and headed for the door. Just then Chaeyoung who was busy watching television turned after overhearing what was being said.

"Can I come?"

"No," Tzuyu said firmly and what followed was the sound of the door sliding shut.

Chaeyoung flinched and sank back in the chair muttering about how stingy Tzuyu was.

Ms Chou laughed, "What do you think about him? A charm isn't he?"

Chaeyoung rolled her eyes and smiled, "It's obvious that she's smitten about him. He is a bit too simple-minded but he's got potential."

Ms Chou nodded proudly to herself as if she was a very matchmaker. She took two glasses out of the top cupboard and popped open the wine bottle.

"Want some?"

Tzuyu bent down to turn on the pipes so that the small mikan grove could get its early morning drink. They had other orchards in a couple of other locations in the countryside but had this one for their personal use.

"Wow!" Jungkook exclaimed, "I've never seen so many orange trees in one place!"

Tzuyu regarded him smugly. She was quite proud of the mikan trees that she helped cultivate.

"Just wait till you try one; It'll knock your socks off."

They set out to start picking. However, Tzuyu had to smack Jungkook's hands away from the precious oranges that were not full enough just yet. She tried advising him on which ones were more favourable but gave up and made him in charge of basket duty.

During their little escapade, Tzuyu rambled extensively about oranges. She couldn't help herself since she had been around the very trees for almost all her life. Jungkook listened intently.

He could tell how much she valued the fruit and he actually thought that it was kind of cute. They arrived at a particular tree that Jungkook soon learned she had planted as a little girl, with the help of her parents.

She checked the branches and was astonished to find a huge mikan which was almost the size of a well-developed grapefruit.

"Chou Tzuyu. Can I have one now?"

"Not yet, Jungkook." That was the sixth time he asked her.

Jungkook slumped, "Just one, please?"

A strong wind blew and brushed some loose strands of hair in his face which she combed back with her fingers revealing his eyes.

Jungkook looked at Tzuyu with a pout and she smiled at how adorable he was at the moment. A sheet of comfortable silence overcame them.

"Let's take a break," she said indicating to a picnic bench not too far from where they stood.

Jungkook shuffled over excitedly and rested the basket on the tabletop but before he could reach in to grab one, Tzuyu sat opposite him and snatched the basket away.

His jaw dropped and before he could whine some more, he heard Jungkook address him in a tone that meant that she had something important to say.

"What is it?" he asked.

She reached a hand over to him and he placed his hand over hers.

"We took a huge step yesterday- a huge step for both our lives."

Jungkook nodded.

"Listen. I did not choose to marry you out of convenience. I'm serious about you... and all I want is for our relationship to work. I don't expect you to be perfect- no one is. There will of course be challenges, obstacles and disagreements between us but I know that whatever they may be, we'll pull through together."

Jungkook weaved his fingers with hers and she instinctively did the same.

"Me too. I'm also serious about you, Tzuyu- about us. It's more than just a feeling," he scratched the back of his head in deep thought. Though it was starting to hurt from thinking too hard.

"What I'm trying to say is that feelings have a habit of changing. And when it comes to you it's more than just feelings... It's deeper than that. Does that make sense?"

Tzuyu stared blankly at first, then with understanding and a little help of a few butterflies, she gave him a winning smile. The smile where her lips pull back showing almost all her teeth and her eyes will light up, almost as if they sparkled; and that was all the confirmation he needed.

"That was a very sweet thing to say, Jungkook."

"Did that make you happy?"

"Yes," she nodded.

Jungkook smiled broadly at her in return. He didn't know why but he felt like he had just conquered the world.

Tzuyu eased out of the bench and stood straight up on her feet with a clenched fist and a determined look in her eyes.

"Let's go. We have more picking to do."

After the harvest and one full basket later, they found a suitable spot under a shady tree and settled down preparing to snack on the overdue fruit. Tzuyu fished around in the basket for the particular mikan she found earlier and handed it over to Jungkook.

"It's huge!" he said, "Let's share it."

"Why? There are plenty more oranges to go around."

"Come on- let's share- let's share~. " he nagged. Tzuyu sighed at his childish antics.

"Oh, all right."

Jungkook struggled to peel the mikan so Tzuyu took it from him and carefully peeled the fruit with ease. She filed out a good wedge and fed it to him.

"It's good! Super sweet too."

"Told ya." Of course, her oranges were to die for. She would not have forgiven him if he had said otherwise.

She peeled off a slice to have one for herself but Jungkook grabbed it from her fingers and stuffed it in his face and stole the fruit from her hand.

"Ya!" she turned to him upset and was greeted with a slice in front of her face.

"Say Ahh."

She leered at him with narrowed eyes and gave him a disbelieving look but ate it nevertheless. Jungkook grinned at this and she smiled at him before looking off, relishing the mikan's sweet juice as it flooded her mouth.

Jungkook put an arm around her, pulled her gently against his side and planted a kiss on her forehead for a good three seconds, just a little above her eyebrows.

Tzuyu's eyes widened and she quickly looked down to hide her burning face. There was always this annoying pitter-patter of her heart whenever he did that but there was no way she was going to deny that she liked it.

"...Hey Jungkook. Have you started packing as yet?"

A look of realization came over his face as he chewed on a slice before giving her another.

"Well..." he looked to the side, pursed his lips and sweatdropped, "Yeah."

"Liar," Jungkook almost laughed. Jeon Jungkook was a terrible liar. It was written all over his face.

"So what? By the looks of it, you haven't started packing either so we're even," he huffed and folded his arms.

Tzuyu blinked and blushed in embarrassment. She was honestly planning to start that day.

"I'll start as soon as I get home..." Jungkook muttered under his breath. He breathed a sigh. The thought of packing seemed so boring.

"I can come over and help you pack tomorrow if you'd like."

"That'll be awesome! Thanks, Tzuyu."

Tzuyu nodded at him with a smile. She didn't have that much packing to do since most of her clothing had to be donated and she was in need of some new clothes, to begin with.

As for her maps, she decided to leave most of them behind and just opted to walk with her equipment and a few of her favourite creations.

She leaned against his shoulder so that their shoulders were touching and she lifted the basket and put it between them.

"Let's eat. These oranges aren't going to eat themselves. Have you ever lived anywhere away from home, Jungkook?" she asked while peeling an orange.

"No. Not really. Have you?"

"No. I've always lived with my parents."

"Yeah. It has always been me and my dad... but you know what?"

"What?" Tzuyu looked up at his grinning face.

"I can't wait."
