"You can call me a brat all you'd like, though I can think of much better ways to scold me," Jungkook teases, looping his arms low around Yoongi's waist, relaxed and pleased with the weight of the other boy against his body, shivers and all. Out in the water, it feels like they're on the edge of the world, that they've run here at full speed until no one else can touch them. It's an experience that Jungkook wants to relive time and time again, and it anchors him, somehow. Gives him a goal that he can easily envision himself working towards.

Wanting to provide a lifetime of happy memories for Yoongi.

"This is far enough for now," he murmurs, one hand rising to brush Yoongi's hair off to the side, though the currents of wind make the effort a futile one. "We'll save the actual swimming for tomorrow. Or some time when I don't have my phone in my pocket."

He laughs, even though the remark isn't all that funny. Laughs, because there's the space to do so now, with blue skies stretching above and blue water all around them, throwing his head back even as his teeth continue to chatter. The air smells nice, slightly salty and alive.

"Best birthday ever?" he asks Yoongi, raising a brow expectantly.
