Maybe Jungkook will regret this all a little later, when he finds his skin still salty and sticky from the ocean water, but for now, the soft look of curiosity on Hoseok's face is enough to have made the wading worth it. With a proud grin, he holds his fist briefly over Hoseok's palm before dropping the shell there.

"For hyung," Jungkook laughs, his expression slightly self-deprecating. It's not nearly as nice as the souvenirs that Jungkook's sure that they'd be able to find if they stopped by the shops that line the more popular stretch of the beach — but sometimes Jungkook thinks that with Hoseok, smaller presents like this might mean just as much. The amount of money spent doesn't really matter, and can even be a burden.

Whereas this shell can simply serve as a little symbol of Jungkook's care.

"It looks really pretty on the inside, if you hold it up to the sun," Jungkook nods at the shell, thoughtlessly stuffing his hands back in his pockets and taking a couple steps backward, already curious how many more shells he can collect if he carefully combs through the sand. "Maybe if I find some more, we can make a necklace."
