Jeongguk and Taehyung’s contract relationship was supposed to end with Jeongguk’s grandmother’s passing. But the end of the contract suddenly feels like losing more than just a business arrangement— it feels like losing a piece of their hearts.

“I didn’t think you’d come to her funeral,”

“Unlike our relationship, my love for her was genuine.”

Jeongguk narrows his eyes, rotating the paper and passing it to Taehyung, putting a pen next to it as well.
4
“You can either sign it right now, or talk with your lawyer first and take some time, I don’t mind.”

Jeongguk hoped Taehyung would choose to do the latter, because he’d like them to be married for a little more time, even if it’s just on paper.
5
“Well, I haven’t talked to my lawyer yet, so I think it can wait some days?” Taehyung says, sipping on his tea.
6
“You must be so happy right now,” he adds, looking up. 

Jeongguk gives him a confused look, brows furrowing. 

“Why do you think that?”

“Because you hated being in my presence.” Jeongguk scoffs, but doesn’t say anything.
7
His secretary knocks on the door then, “Sir, you have a meeting in ten minutes.”

Taehyung sighs, getting up.

“Well, I guess that’s my cue to leave.” He places the cup back on the table, moving towards the door.
8
Jeongguk doesn’t stop him, despite wanting to do so.

“Mr. Jeon, you have a meeting in an hour,” Jeongguk’s secretary informs him.

“Cancel it, I have lunch with Taehyung at four, you know it,” Jeongguk replies, not looking up from the documents he’s currently reading.
10
“Sir, you no longer have lunch with Mr. Kim.” His secretary hesitates.

Jeongguk looks up then, his eyes large with disappointment.

“I’ll cancel the meeting anyway? you haven’t had lunch.”
11
“No, that’s fine, don’t cancel it.”

Someone knocks on his door after fifteen minutes, assuming it’s his secretary again, he tells the person to come inside without looking up.

“Hi, I brought lunch.” He looks up at the speed of light.
12
It’s Taehyung, looking pretty as ever. If he’s being honest, Taehyung has always been the most beautiful person he has seen. Jeongguk thinks he might creep him out the way he keeps staring at him, mouth wide open like a fish.

“You didn’t have to bring lunch.”
13
Taehyung shrugs, moving to sit on the couch while he places the lunch box on the table.

“Come, eat.”

“Mrs. Jeon told me that you haven’t been eating, like before.”
14
Jeongguk rolls his eyes at that. Of course his mother calls Taehyung first, knowing damn well he always does what Taehyung asks him to.

He sits opposite to Taehyung, and they start eating silently.
15
“So, have you talked to your lawyer yet?” he asks sceptically, to which Taehyung replies with a shake of his head.

“I’m planning to call him soon.” He says with a mouth full of food.
16
Jeongguk smiles looking at him, he had always been a little clumsy. He picks up a napkin and wipes Taehyung’s mouth a bit, like he had been doing that his whole life.

Taehyung’s eyes widens at that, “I’ll do it myself.” He takes the napkin and pats it on his mouth.
17
After Jeongguk is done eating, Taehyung gets up to leave, making Jeongguk get up as well.

“Don’t skip your meals again, I won’t be around to make sure you eat next time.” Jeongguk visibly slumps at Taehyung’s words, and Taehyung had always been a little soft for his husband.
18
So he moves closer to him and places a gentle kiss on his cheeks.

He hurriedly bids a goodbye to Jeongguk, almost running into a plant on his way.

Taehyung had finally talked to his lawyer, and even though he was dreading signing the papers, he knew he needed to do it for both of their sakes.

He arrives a little early to the restaurant they decided to meet at.
20
Putting his phone on the table while he taps it with his fingers.

He sees Jeongguk entering the restaurant as well, instinctively he had decided to arrive early as well.

He spots Taehyung sitting and practically runs towards him.
21
“Hi, I hope I didn’t make you wait.” He says taking a seat.

“Not at all,” Taehyung passes a smile.

A waiter comes to attend them shortly, taking their orders right after.

Jeongguk gets the papers out once again, sliding them towards Taehyung.
22
“Aren’t you eager to get rid of me?” Taehyung jokes, grabbing the pen and gliding it on the paper.

“Wait– that’s not–”

“So, do you not want me to sign?” Taehyung raises a brow, clearly teasing Jeongguk.
23
He puts the pen down, starting intently at him with his chin on the palm of his hand.

Jeongguk clears his throat, “I mean, it’s totally your choice,”

Taehyung hums, grabbing the pen again, he signs it and pushes it towards Jeongguk.

“There you go.” He’s smiling.
24
The waiter comes back with their food, and Taehyung’s smile doesn’t dim one bit. 

Jeongguk thinks if he was that happy to finally be free from him. He visibly slumps on his seat, taking the fork and poking the food with it.
25
“What’s on your mind?” Taehyung catches him off guard,with his honey slicked voice.

“Just that…you seem rather happy,”

“Am I not allowed to?” Taehyung is still beaming, and Jeongguk would’ve loved it if Taehyung was smiling at him like that in any scenario,but not this one.
26
“Seems like you’re the one who hated me then,” He huffs, filling his mouth full of food.

Taehyung slightly nods, “Maybe,” He puts the fork and knife on the plate and wipes his mouth with a napkin.
27
He then asks the waiter to bring the bill, puts the money inside the bill, and when Jeongguk tries to protest, he shushes him by saying it will be their last meal together. 

He gets up from the seat, “I guess it’s time for me to leave then.”
28
Jeongguk quickly gets up as well, following him like a lost puppy. He wants Taehyung to stay, but he isn’t sure if the latter wants the same. 

He gathers enough courage to grab Taehyung’s wrist somehow, mumbling a little ‘stay’.
29
Taehyung, despite hearing what Jeongguk said, pretends he didn’t and asks him to repeat.

Jeongguk does.

Taehyung smiles again, leaning close to him and pecking his lips, making his eyes go wide.
30
“I was going to anyway.”

“Then why did you sign the papers?”

Taehyung loops his one arm around Jeongguk, while the other goes to grab his tie and he pulls him closer.
31
“Because, my sweet Jeonggukie, I don’t want us to be bound by a stupid contract. I want to start fresh with you.”
