Cuddle time with John... I could gush about this for HOURS... (ask any one of my friends while we're playing Halo, I will gush at one point or another about John and cuddling him)

Cuddles with John are all around wonderful, their warm and safe, giving you a sense of security. He'll be sure to hold you close to him, stroking your hair softly, doing the things he knows will calm you down.

LOTS of kisses!! This man will constantly be pressing gentle kisses to your hairline, top of your head, cheeks, nose, and lips... he WILL shower you in kisses. Knowing how much the contact calms you.

As for the second question, I try to leave Dove as blank of a character as possible so everyone can be her. I really wanted to give everyone a character they could mold after themselves, no matter their body type, race, or any other category you want to add. So I shall leave that up to your imagination, my dear :), but yes, John will 100 percent rest his head on your stomach after a bad day, a long day, a long time apart, or just for comfort. He doesn't initiate cuddles as often as you do, but that's mostly due to him not being used to positive physical contact.

Taehyung pulled the blankets so far down the bed that Jungkook wouldn’t be able to mindlessly pull them up. He started preparing essential materials, running to the sink to get a bin of ice water and several rags prepared. He dipped them in the ice water, loosely wringing them out so they don't lose their chill, and placed them on every visible portion of Jungkook's body. Carefully so not to startle the sleeping sick man, he laid one along his forehead, another over the back of his neck. One rested on the backs of his knees, another along the small of his back. Taehyung then kept one for himself to dab at particularly sweaty areas of skin and brush through his soaked hair. When Jungkook woke up, Taehyung would try to get Jungkook to sit in the tub, to help bring the fever down and wash away the sweat. It would also be an opportunity for Taehyung to change the bed sheets.

Taehyung was in the middle of drying Jungkook’s hair when he heard Haein start to coo for attention through the baby monitor. He knew that eventually those coos would turn into cries if he wasn't quick enough to soothe the infant. And he knew that if Haein started crying, Joongi would wake up as well, cranky that he didn't get to complete his nap. A sick husband and two fussy kids was more than Taehyung could handle. And with the state Jungkook was in, it was basically like having a third fussy kid. He didn't want to leave Jungkook's side while he was whimpering so desperately, but he had to tend to their baby.

This was new territory for Taehyung. Jungkook hadn’t gotten so miserably sick in years. Not since before Joongi was born. Nothing more severe than a simple cold anyway. He wasn’t sure how he was going to manage taking care of Jungkook and making sure their kids were taken care of as well. He was only one man after all. He knew that Joongi would try to help the best he could, but at some point his help would become more of a hindrance. And Taehyung didn’t want either of the kids to see their father so sick.

But Taehyung was never one to turn down a challenge. He took a deep breath to remind himself it would all pass. This was all temporary. Nothing he couldn’t persevere through. Eventually, Jungkook would be better and everything would be back to normal. With that in mind, he steeled his resolve and went to comfort Haein.

The trip to the family room was quick. He scooped up the baby with practiced ease and rushed to the kitchen to prepare a bottle for the child, bouncing him on his hip all the while to keep him entertained. Bottle secured and baby satisfied, Taehyung peeked to make sure that Joongi was still sleeping. He let out a relieved sigh at the sight of his oldest cuddling up to a stuffed animal still sound asleep and undisturbed.

When he returned to his room, he sat on the edge of the bed. One arm wrapped carefully around the infant and the other holding the warm bottle to the child’s lips. Maybe after filling his stomach with the warm bottle, Haein would fall back to sleep. Taehyung was hopeful, turning his attention back to Jungkook who somehow managed to pull the covers back over himself in his absence. Taehyung immediately removed the covers, afraid his husband would bake himself alive.

Jungkook groaned as the covers were removed, "'S too cold." He whined, visibly shaking with chills, "We never should have moved to Antarctica. I don’t care how much you love penguins. That was a bad decision. Why did I let you make that decision."

It was hard for Taehyung to tell if Jungkook was trying to make a joke or being genuinely upset about their fantasy decision to move to the south pole. He couldn’t even remember a single time he’d ever given an opinion on penguins in all their years together. He opted to ignore the statement completely, “I know you’re cold, Kookie. But you can’t have the blankets. You have a fever and we need to bring that down.”

Hope you enjoyed this sneak peek. I'll continue working on it and hopefully have the full version posed in the next week or so. Fingers crossed.
