Naked, Rinyoung sat in the tub— her back to Donghyuck as she faced the tiled walls of the bathroom.  She heaved a sigh, finally feeling at ease. The woman completely allowed herself to be engulfed with the warmth of security— scared that if she mistook the opportunity, it would slip right through her hands once again.

As she delved deeper into her thoughts, Donghyuck continued to massage her strawberry scented shampoo into her scalp. He gently weaved his fingers through her dark locks— almost too softly as he feared pressing too hard would give the girl a headache.

"Why don't you face me?" He whispered, his soft breath tickling the shell of her right ear.

Rinyoung's shoulders shook as she laugh lightly. "I don't want you to see me like this," She spoke— referring to the mascara that ran down her cheeks in long streaks and her dark heavy eye bags looming over her soft features.

Not quite understanding her and the dilemma, the male scoffed. "You look beautiful,"

"You don't understand—" She tried though her words faltered once feeling her body turned.  The raven haired's head fell— her chin to her chest— cheeks burning with embarrassment.

As if he's done it many times before, the brunette grasped her chin between his forefinger and thumb. He tilted her head up to face him— her honey orbs meeting his.

"I don't think you understand," he muttered. His dark eyes roamed over her face, watching as her nose scrunched up in habit and her bottom lip tucked out in a pout. "I don't say you're beautiful to have an argument, i say it to make sure you know you are,"

"Stop staring at me," She gushed, nervously turning her face away. Her cheeks burned a bright crimson as her heart shook intensely in her chest.

Donghyuck laughed, kissing her cheek lovingly as he found her unbelievably adorable. Naturally he reached into the tub and grabbed ahold of her hand, intertwining their fingers together— his orbs glued to them— fascinated at how they fit together so perfectly.

"I love how our hands fit," Suds of soap were littered on their hands, yet they didn't mind.

"You're being so gushy all of a sudden," She mumbled, her voice lowering as her nerves completely took control.

"We have to make up for the time we missed," He chuckled, peppering her face with small soft pecks.

"You're crazy!" Rinyoung  laughed aloud, the melodious sound resonating throughout the entire bathroom.

"Crazy for you,"

Her face deadpanned, "Okay, you're just overdoing it now," She punched his shoulder playfully— reeling a groan of pain.

"You pain me Im Rinyoung,"

"You drive me insane Lee Donghyuck,"

They grinned simultaneously, the corners of their lips pulled up to their eyes.

For a moment, their orbs stayed on each other. They were entranced, lulled in by each other's presence. Finally they were able to inhale peacefully— their minds free of the chains of worry, guilt and anger. They just needed each other.

They were each other's fresh air from their suffocating double lives, and they were surely grateful for the other.

With him;

Rinyoung was free. The type of free you feel when you absolutely don't care about anything than the moment. The type of free you feel when you roll down the windows of your car, or when you laugh aloud at a joke— not minding how you sound, or when you find the person you love.

He allowed her to make her own choices, be her own person, do whatever she wished, even when he disagreed with her.

And she loves him for it.

He was the new home she always wanted, the family she dreamed of.

He taught her how to live.

And with her;

Donghyuck gained a sense of security. He didn't need to always worry or second guess her. She consistently— and repetitively— told him they were soulmates and nothing would make her leave.

After being stripped of everything he had, his dreams, his desires, his life, he found his person that restored him entirely.

Now he has dreams again, hopes and faith that the things he want can happen.

She gave him confidence. She gave him the want to do better, be better.

She was the reason for him to live.

Someone said the world spun with love, and it spun a little faster with both of them in each other's lives.

"Marry me," He spoke— it being a statement rather than a question, however she didn't complain— her smile only growing larger.

She inhaled a deep breath before speaking too. "I'm pregnant."

Unable to contain his joy, his calloused hands met the sides of her face— bringing her closer to capture her lips in a passionate kiss.

And from then, they knew they found happiness in each other.

"I've only ever wanted to experience the rest of my life with you,"

"I've only ever wanted to experience the rest of my life with you,"
