It was a peaceful morning. Jungkook woke up at 5, brushed his teeth, and packed his gym bag and got ready to leave for the gym by 5.15. Considering the gym in their own apartment was under renovation, he had to go to the one a few blocks away. He worked out for 1 hour, came back home by 6.30, showered just in time to wake up his mate Taehyung by 7.
In Jungkook's eyes, Taehyung was the epitome of perfection. The way his tan skin glowed in the morning sun, the way his fluffy hair flopped over his forehead, the delicate way he brushed his hair away from his eyes, the way he walked, the sound of him singing with his deep voice, soothing, as it sometimes lulled Jungkook to sleep.
He peppered the omega's face with kisses, squeezing his waist as he muttered “Wake up Jagi, we have that photoshoot today, and you have to get ready.” Models Jungkook and Taehyung had been married for 3 years now, mated for 4, together for 5. Their relationship had stood the test of time, their love had stood the test of time, and after all that they had gone through, finally, they were here together.
Tae lifted his torso off of the bed, squinting his eyes at the clock on their bedside table. “Fuck the photoshoot” he said groggily, laying his head on his mate’s shoulder, who had, by then, laid on the bed. “Jagi, you’ve literally been so hyped up about this for the past 10 days, so don't bail on me now” Jungkook replied with a chuckle.
“Oh shit, it's OUR photoshoot!” Tae exclaimed, all sleepiness gone. He leapt off the bed, and hurried into their bathroom to get ready for the day. This left Jungkook bamboozled on their bed. What was so special about this photoshoot that had Taehyung all hyped up? Like they’d had photoshoots together before? Shaking his head, he made his way into the kitchen to make some breakfast before they’d have to leave.

Meanwhile, the model had finished taking a bath and was standing in a robe, typing away on his phone. Prepping for photoshoots is hard, he thought as a message from his manager came through. This was not a photoshoot organized by the label that he was signed to , but one that he wanted to do all by himself, for a very special occasion. Ditching his phone so that he can get ready, Tae pulled out 2 outfits, one for him, and the other for his mate and started to get ready.
They got ready, falling into their usual rhythm since usually both of them would have to leave for work in the morning. By nine, they were ready for the omega’s manager to come pick them up. Jungkook noticed that tae kept fiddling with the strap of the bag he was wearing, rocking on his heels, eyes wandering everywhere nervously. Everytime the alpha caught his eyes, he would send a shy smile across to kook, who, with every passing second grew even more curious as to why his mate was behaving weirdly for a thing that was quite a normal part of their lives.

It was almost 11 when they started hearing the sound of the camera shutter going off. Taehyung decided to have his solo shoot first, followed by his alpha's solo, and then came the part where they could shoot together.
Their couple shoot was going alright, in both their opinions. The photographer asked them to pose for a couple of photos, and then handed them each a white board and a marker. “This is going to be posted on the youtube channel along with the behind the scenes. Please turn around and write 4 words that you feel best describes your mate.” the photographer said.
They did as told when the photographer asked them to turn around and then “jungkook-ssi, look your mate in the eye and read out what you have written on the board.” “Ethereal, caring, perfect and mine,” Jungkook replied lovingly, with a hint of possessiveness in his voice. “Taehyung-ssi, your urn now” the photographer prompted. “Well,” drawled Taehyung, rather shyly, “best alpha and best appa” while turning his board around for everyone to see.
“What” came a garbled sound from Jungkook's mouth, making everyone turn towards him. “You’re pregnant?” he asked softly, while cautiously crossing the 3ft gap between them. Taehyung nodded, looking up at his mate through his eyelashes, blushing softly. “Oh my gosh we’re having a baby!” the alpha shouted, crossing the distance between them, lifting his mate up, twirling him around and kissing him deeply.
Taehyung was shrieking with laughter by the time Jungkook put him down. His mate knelt on the ground, cupping his tummy, whispering “hi pup, this is your appa and I’m so happy that you’re in there.”
