Him | A Kim Namjoon Fanfiction | COMPLETED

Epilogue

I woke to the sound of Nari's cries, signalling it was time for a feed. I couldn't wait until we could finally put her in her own room. Groaning, I rolled over to check the time on my bedside clock. 7am.

"It's your turn!" I grumbled, hitting Namjoon with a pillow in the hopes of encouraging him out of bed. Nari had just turned 3 months old and was finally onto bottle feeding which meant I got a lie in after weeks of getting up for every single feed. Things had been so perfect. She was so perfect. Mixed race babies really are gorgeous. She had big almond shaped brown eyes and fluffy brown hair. She was definitely her father's daughter. They looked so much alike it was unreal. I just couldn't believe how big she was getting already. It felt like only yesterday I was holding her tiny body for the first time in the hospital, or blubbering over how cute her milk drunk face was. Now she was teething and laughing and developing her own cheeky character. Like how she bit Namjoon's nose when she was hungry, or screamed the place down any time we lifted her too high. I didn't know it was possible to be so in love with someone. I just wished she could stay tiny forever.

"Errr, Mia? She's made a bit of a mess in her cot... Extremely explosive shit alert!" Namjoon gave me a digusted look while pinching his nose. Okay, maybe not everything was perfect, I definitely didn't enjoy this part!

"Hey so Jungkook and Jenny said they're happy to have Nari tonight so we could celebrate!" It was our anniversary and our first night alone together since Nari was born. As much as I loved her, I was really looking forward to finally getting some alone time with Namjoon, if you catch my drift. It'd been a while, okay?

"Oh yeah? Maybe we can finally have some fun, eh?" He winked.

"Dude, you're holding six wet wipes covered in our child's faeces. Not exactly the sexiest image baby." I giggled. Although, by this point I'd find him sexy in any scenario.

"So.. Jungkook and Jenny? they seem to be getting pretty serious. It's nice finally seeing him happy with someone."

Jenny was a stunning Korean model Jungkook had started dating a few months back. After Chaeyoung he was left quite emotionally scarred and terrified to trust again, and then Jenny, the sweetest, kindest and coolest girl I'd met came along. Namjoon knew her from work and introduced them and honestly, Jungkook was the happiest Id ever seen him. They were so perfect for each other.

"He was actually telling me he thinks she might be the girl he marries, you know." Nari cooed in my arms as she wrapped her tiny hand around my finger. Such an adorable little attention seeker, just like her mother.

"That's really cute, almost as cute as this little one! Come here babygirl." Namjoon dumped the soiled wipes in the rubbish bin next to the changing mat and cradled Nari. "Why don't you try and get some sleep baby, I got this one."

"I love you."

"I love you too."

"Thanks so much for having her, you guys. We're so glad to finally have some time to ourselves!" I handed Nari to Uncle Jungkook and she almost immediately started giggling, she adored Jungkook which made it all the more easier to leave her with him. I still wasn't quite over the separation anxiety, but I knew she loved being with Kookie.

"That's alright, you both look great by the way!" Jenny said, giving us both a hug before making her way towards the door. She wasn't wrong, Namjoon wore a tight fitting grey shirt with a cornflower blue tie to match my blue bodycon mini dress. We looked pretty fucking hot, if I do say so myself.

Jungkook and Jenny left us alone with each other and the second the door clicked shut Namjoon and I just exchanged hungry looks with each other.

"Baby! Self control! I don't wanna ruin my makeup just yet. Let's have our little date first and then I'll let you do whatever you want to me." I winked.

"Oh hoh! I like the sound of that! Would you like to take a seat mi'lady?" He pulled out a chair for me at the dining table before placing a napkin over my lap once I was seated.

"Why thank you, good sir!" As it was our first night alone we decided not to eat out tonight, we just wanted to enjoy each others company without having to worry about the clatter of other people's cutlery or the harsh tones of conversations less than 3 feet away. The privacy was nice.

Namjoon placed a plate of his finest Spaghetti Bolognese in front of me as he sat across the table. It wasn't anything fancy, but it was perfect to us. We talked and talked and had actual conversations about things that had nothing to do with nappy rashes or brands of baby monitors. We got to be ourselves and not just responsible parents for the the first time in what felt like years. It reminded me of all the reasons I fell in love with him. His laugh, his one dimple when he smiles, his kindness, his compassion, his sense of humour,  how he'll mindlessly sing or rap under his breath while doing small tasks, his intelligence, his clumsiness, the adorable concentrated look on his face when he's emersed in a book, the way he looks at me like I'm the only person in the room. I loved every tiny detail about him, and I wondered if it was ever possible to stop.

"I do actually have a small suprise for you. But uh.. I'm kinda nervous so just bear with me" he chuckled.

"Oh yeah? What is it? And please don't say 'deez nuts'!" I joked, which earned a giggle from him.

"Not quite." He laughed as he got up from his chair and walked around the table before getting down on one knee in front of me. "Mia, I'm so in love with you and I have been since the first moment I saw you. I just knew you were the one for me. I know the journey has been a little messy and I can never apologise enough for it. But at the same time, I'm so thankful for every bump, scrape and bruise we've endured together because it got us here. Together with a beautiful little girl that we both adore. I never thought I could love anyone more than you until you gave me her. And I didn't think it was possible to love you anymore than I already did, until you became the mother of my daughter. Honestly, I couldn't imagine life without you, either of you, and I don't ever want to see what that's like. I love you and I'm always going to. So, will you make me the happiest man on the planet and spend the rest of your life with me? Will you marry me, Mia?"

"Yes! Of course I will!" I was a blubbering mess by the end of that speech and, after my answer, so was he. We cried our tears of joy in each others arms and exchanged wet sloppy kisses as we revelled in our happiness. He was right, it had been a messy one up until now, but honestly, the road ahead had never looked clearer than it did at that moment.

Namjoon and Nari were all I needed. For the rest of my life.
