Chapter 41

AN: Hey guys. How are you? I know it has been a long time since I last posted. I apologize. I kinda hit a writer's block, and afterward, inspiration came in the form of another story, haha. I will try to finish this story as well while writing that new one. I don't know if I will post that one or not, we'll see. This story does not have many chapters left to write and we are slowly reaching the end. Hope you like it so far, and you will enjoy the next few chapters until the end. Have a good day :)

"Are you sure about this?" Lexy asked Jin as she looked over the materials needed to put together the rose bouquet he had envisioned. In her fingers was one of the most precious and expensive materials needed, an engagement ring. "What if she gets so shocked she says nothing? Or worse, she gets angry you ruined the graduation day for her and the others?" she kept asking the tall brunette, twirling the sparkling rose gold ring in her fingers.

She could only look at it, lost in her thoughts as the sparkles from the pink rose-shaped diamond rock in the center kept hitting her eyes. Jin had good taste in jewelry, especially when it came to picking one out for Kiki. This was the last piece of the set he gifted her throughout an entire year. Kiki got the pink rose earrings for her birthday, then Jin gifted her the necklace on Valentine's Day while going out to a restaurant. The chain was made out of rose-gold, while the rose attached to it was the same pink rose color as the earrings. And now this rose-golden ring in Lexy's hand completed the entire set. The red-haired knew he had this planned for some time now, from the moment he laid his eyes on this specific set probably, but he only shared it with the group a month before graduation.

"Stop it, Lexy. What is wrong with you today? Why do you keep being so down about this?" M asked as she was going through the shades of real roses in the vases on the table to help Jin pick how the shading should go for the bouquet. "For a week now, you act like you are not yourself" she bends down closer to the red-haired woman to whisper in her ear "What happened?"

Lexy could only shrug before placing the ring back in its box, looking at the ceiling, just feeling out of place at the moment. She knew she should talk about what was bothering her, but at the same time, she did not want to bring the happy moment down with her thoughts. So she chose silence while reaching for one of the roses to look at it and inspect the petals and color. It wasn't like she wanted to feel like that, but ever since a certain boxy-smile boyfriend of hers uttered something to her, she felt out of place in her entire life, or at least, the future of her life.

"We'll talk about this later, Lexy" M said, looking at her friend with worry, before turning to the roses in front of her. At the moment, just the three of them were in there, even though all the friend circle knew about Jin's plan, except Kiki. The others were out with their own things to do, from talking to the lighting person in the auditorium, to the person in charge of music for that day.

M and Lexy were the only ones in that small room, making sure to pick the perfect bouquet combination, while Jin tried to rehearse his speech, walk, smile, and everything while asking the question. Everyone could see how excited and nervous he was at the same time, and whenever they saw Kiki, they had to restrain themselves from grinning for the past month to not spoil the surprise. The guys kept teasing Jin, then the tease would turn inward, about their own plans for the future, or even marriage. Some would think Yoongi would be the next one to pop the question right after Jin, on the same day, as he was teased the most by everyone involved in the plan. M ignored all the teases, the blush never leaving her cheeks those days because she knew Yoongi would wait for her to finish her studies before trying something like that. It did not mean she did not dream about it sometimes, trying to figure out how he would do it, if it would be a long set-up like Jin's plan, or something spontaneous.
