Yn’s POV:


“Marry you?” Was I hearing him right?!

My constant pounding of my heart was deafening. The intense loving look that Jungkook was giving me was drowning me. Where was the air? I felt as if I couldn’t breathe… My brain was turned to mush and I found myself unable to comprehend what he just said. If it weren’t for his strong arms being around me I would be on the floor in utter shock.

His solid body so confident in what he was asking, his intense distinct blue eyes focused, yet his own throbbing heart was giving away his nervousness under my hands on his chest.

“Yes.” He stated. Then surprised me even more when he released me from his arms. I almost lost my balance, but I focused hard to stay standing. I watched Jungkook’s tall, intimidating figure go down to one knee before me. His large hands took mine in his own. His eyes never left mine. “Kim Yn, I love you. Marry me for real this time..”

Short. Simple. No extra fancy words. He was a man of few words, and yet, the impact from his simple display took my breath away. What happened to this god of a man before me? Never could I ever picture Jungkook getting down on his knee, or ever confessing his love for me in such a bold way. He was always the one that was timid about it, always thinking I deserved better, when in reality he was out of my league.

“D-Do you know what you’re asking me, Jungkook?” I whispered. He kept hold of my hands but rose to his feet yet again to tower over me. I watched him, his stare still holding me captive. “Are you sure you want this? Want me…. For your wife?”

“We have been together for almost half a year now, Yn. This entire time, good or bad, we have been thinking and acting as if we were married. The thought of you not being beside me when I wake up every morning is now my worst fear. I… I can’t imagine not having you beside me.” The love that was pouring out from him held me tightly in an invisible embrace. I didn’t want to be away from him either, I just never thought he would want the same! Were my dreams finally coming true?

This wasn’t a dream right? I wanted to pinch myself…

“So marry me, Yn. Say yes.” His deep scruffy voice demanded.

“Yes.” I whispered in awe. I couldn’t believe I was able to actually get the word out, but it came thrashing through my chest straight from my heart. Yes, I wanted to marry him and truly be his wife! I watched his large body freeze and one of those amazing smiles come over his face.

“Yes?”

I couldn’t help but laughed lightly and smile as well, tears pooling in my eyes. “Yes, Jungkook. Yes!”

His lips came crashing down on mine taking my breath instantly away. If it wasn’t for his strong arms wrapped around my waist my knees would have buckled under me. The love that poured from his lips was overwhelming. Jungkook pulled back and rested his forehead against my own. We both took a couple deep breaths. “Let’s get married in two days.”

I laughed, knowing how impatient he could be. “Two days? Why then?” I didn’t move away from him.

“I want claim to your name. The sooner the better.” He replied. “We can get everything ready tomorrow, then have it the day after.”

I was too happy to refuse. “Sounds perfect.”

“Why two days?” Jimin’s voice echoed through the tailor shop. I stood off to the side and looked at the different colored ties they had while Jungkook tried on a different tuxedo. Jimin had come along to help pick it out, being his best friend and all. When we had told Jimin first thing this morning, he was happy for us, but had started acting strange.

Hadn’t he been the one to push this? Or so Jungkook had informed me of. Either way, I didn’t feel pressure from him to call it off, just only from within myself. I was afraid…

Why couldn’t I be stronger?

Sighing I tried to ignore Jungkook’s annoyed reply to him. “Keep your voice down, damn.” That wasn’t the exact answer I wanted to hear. Yet after that, he did as instructed and I could no longer hear them talking. It was very sudden, but I knew besides not wanting to wait, it was also due to keeping our secret a secret. We didn’t want it getting out that Jungkook and I never married. It would destroy his reputation.

Last night had been a dream come true. And yes, I wanted nothing more than to truly be his wife. But fear kept throwing it’s insecurities at me. Could I really handle being his wife? For real? This whole time I knew we would eventually split. I wouldn’t have to play wife forever.

Then I remembered how he looked at me. I couldn’t help but smile at it. He always looked at me with a softened look, when all he ever showed the world was a hardened one. And his kisses… his touch at last night…

My cheeks when red.

Hmm…. Red was a nice color.

Jungkook’s POV:


Damn, did he want the whole world to know about our marriage not being real!? Seriously, it was getting on my last nerve! Since when was he against all of this?!

“You still haven’t answered me.” Jimin crossed his arms with a determined look. At least his voice was softer.

“I don’t want to wait.” I told him in a light tone. I looked across the room to watch as Yn held a red tie in her hands, a beautiful smile on her face. What was she thinking about I wonder…

“Do you really think that’s a good idea?” Jimin leaned forward and asked me. His voice was hushed this time, creating unpleasant feelings to stir inside of me. I narrowed my eyes at him and also leaned forward, forgetting about how the tux I was wearing looked on me.

“Since when have you been against us being together?”

“I’m not.” He frowned.

My god, if he doesn’t straighten up his act! I was seriously starting to get pissed, and that was the last thing I wanted. I wanted this to be a happy occasion, since I was going to be marrying Yn tomorrow.

“That’s not what it sounds like, Jimin.” He himself glared, then looked around. Once he felt comfortable he came at me and dragged me into the changing room. Startled, I glared and crossed my arms in the smaller space with this man. Me being larger than most didn’t help anything. I focused on him and waited for him to explain his strange behavior. I’ve honestly never seen him act so. It was as if I didn’t even know this man.

Jimin pulled the door shut and leveled with me. In hushed tones he finally spilled the reason. “I’ve been tracking the movements of the mobster who tried to kill you.”

I froze. I felt my stomach drop. “And?”

With a determined look he said, “I got information saying that he has been spotted. Thing is, there hasn’t been any movement other than that.”

If they weren’t doing anything, that was a good thing right? “That’s a good thing I would assume.”

He sighed with disappointment. “I wish that was the case.” He leveled with me once more with his gaze. “It’s actually more worrisome when there isn’t any movement.” He reached forward and began to straighten the tie around my neck. I could see his demeanor was still tense and worried.

“You don’t think they will do something do you?”

His eyes flashed up to mine. Strong. Determined. “It’s not a matter of ‘if’, but when, Jungkook.”

A sudden knock on the changing room door snapped us both to stop talking. Jimin released my tie and opened the door slightly to reveal Yn. She eyed both of us together in the small changing room.

Her brow raised. “Well, it finally makes sense.”

Jimin eyed her carefully. “What does?”

“The reason why you don’t have a girlfriend. You’re in love with Jungkook.”

As soon as the sarcastic words left Yn’s lips, I froze as Jimin wrapped his arms around me in an embrace. What the-

“Is it that obvious?” Jimin’s voice playfully went along with it.

“What the hell-!?” I quickly shoved Jimin off of me and glared at him. “Keep your hands off me, bastard!” I wanted to punch him for fooling around at such a time but when I heard Yn’s sweet voice break out into laughter I hesitated. Looking at her small frame, she smiled brightly and giggled again.

“You guys are something else.” She stated, smiling at us both. “Everything alright though?” Jimin’s stepped out and stood by her and flashed me a look telling me to keep quiet. I agreed, I didn’t want her to worry about something like that right now. I wanted to marry her and for her to enjoy her wedding day, considering it was already going to be a quick last minute thing.

“We are fine, dear.” Jimin lied to her with ease and threw his arm around her shoulders. “Did you need something?”

“Ah, yeah. Suzy is going to be here in a few minutes, I’m just going to meet her-“

“No!” I snapped, causing both Jimin and Yn to eye me carefully. Both for different reasons. I didn’t mean to snap like I did, but with the information that Jimin just gave me, I wanted to keep Yn in my sights at all times. At least until I knew the men had been captured. But with the look that came across her face, I felt bad. Sighing I ran my hand through my hair and gave her a softened look. “Sorry, Yn. I didn’t mean to snap. It’s just… well…”

“He just wants to stay with you. I mean, you are getting married tomorrow.” Jimin filled in the blanks, and I was grateful. I didn’t really know how to rectify the situation.

Yn’s beautiful face huffed and she crossed her arms, “Look Jungkook, I am just as excited about this whole thing, but I really don’t want you to go with me to pick out my wedding dress.” Her cheeks went red as she explained, but her eyes stayed determined.

Oh. Damn.

Yn’s POV:

I didn’t want Jungkook to go with us, no matter how much I didn’t want to be away from him. He just confessed that he loved me, asked me to marry him, and I wanted nothing more than to be with him right now. I don’t know what came over him, but I wanted to have at least one thing that was normal at a wedding. Him seeing me for the first time in my wedding dress.

Yet, with no real friends that I could confide in, I contacted the nursing assistant Suzy from the hospital. When I went to visit the children, which was often, I ended up chatting with her a bit each time. We had so much in common and so I told her the situation and she was so excited to help me pick out a dress.

I trusted her. “I won’t be long. You guys finish finding a tux and Suzy and I’ll be downtown at the dress shop. I’ll have my cell if I need anything, and we will meet up in a couple hours for lunch.”

“Yn-“ Jungkook started to say in a tone that was protective.

“I’ll be fine.” I cut him off, coming up onto my tippy toes and planting a kiss to his lips. He instantly stopped talking and it made me chuckle a bit. Who would have thought I would have such power over him.

At least he never had to worry about me using that against him.

“Here, take this with you.” Jimin gained my attention when he reached out and handed me a small box. I took it and looked at it confused. I raised my brow and looked at him. “It’s a pair of earrings. They match your mother’s necklace and hopefully will go great with your dress. My wedding gift to you.”

I couldn’t help but smile softly at him. He always did so much for us. “Thank you Jimin.”

“You should wear them while you are trying on dresses. See how it looks.” I listened and nodded. Taking a step towards him I gave him a quick peck on the cheek. I could hear Jungkook mumble under his breath, and I looked at him and smiled. He was always so jealous even though he knew he held my heart. “I’ll see you soon.”

Jungkook’s blue eyes focused on me with such adoration I almost couldn’t move. Before I gave in and let him go with me I quickly turned and walked out the door to meet with Suzy.

“Why do I feel uneasy?” Jungkook asked Jimin.

“One can only hope it’s you over reacting.” He replied.

“Are you excited for tomorrow?” Suzy’s voice questioned from outside the dressing room.

“More than you could imagine. It’s crazy thinking this is finally happening for me.” I expressed then grunted as I tried sliding on the mermaid dress. This had to be a size too small or something.

“Oh trust me, I understand.” She laughed. “It’s such a overwhelming excitement to spend the rest of your life married to your best friend.” With a lovingly sigh, she went silent.

“How long have you been married for?” I asked curiously. I finally sucked in my stomach and got the dress over it.

“Six years.”

“Wow.” I turned and opened the door to pop my head out. The woman assisting me came and zipped the back of the dress up. I stepped out and saw her smile at me. “Six years? I bet it’s been wonderful.” I imagined openly.

“We’ve had our ups and downs.” Her smile slightly faded and I saw sadness over take her eyes. “It’s a beautiful dress, Yn. But I’m not sure it’s the one.”

I turned and looked at myself in the mirror. The dress was tight and was beautiful by all means, but she was right. This wasn’t me. I had already tried on a couple, and I was a bit discouraged that I hadn’t found one yet. “I agree.” I stated. Let’s try on one more. It’s a shorter dress.”

“Sounds good. Fingers crossed!” her smile returned. Hmm… did she not enjoy being married? Was there something she didn’t want to talk about? I walked back towards the dressing room door, but stopped short. She had six years of marriage. Even making it longer than a year had to mean that they loved each other.

“I don’t mean to pry… but…” I looked over my shoulder at her. Her sweet face waited for my question with pure interest. “After six years… are you still happy?”

Surprising me, Suzy gave me a tender smile. “With my husband? Or with life? Because being with my husband after these six years has been amazing. I love him more everyday and I’m going to enjoy being with my best friend for a very long time. But with life… Well that’s a different story.”

“Is everything alright?” I asked worried. Suzy was always so positive and happy, I didn’t even know she was having a rough time right now.

“Well… not really. But I’m pushing through to find joy in the small things. My husband and I both are.” I could see she was holding back tears. She went silent. Then with a deep breath, she finally spoke again. “I was pregnant earlier this year. My husband and I were eagerly awaiting the arrival of our daughter.” Another deep breath. “I made it to my due date. She was fine. The next day, she wasn’t moving. We went in and… they told me that she had no heartbeat… she had past away suddenly, for no known reason in the middle of the night while I slept.”

My heart broke. Oh my god. I held back tears.

A single tear slid down her cheek and she quickly wiped it away and shook her head. Looking me in the eyes she gave me another tender smile. “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to make this occasion sad.” She sniffed. “But like I said, I am finding joy in different things. She would want me to be happy and celebrate her life, since she was so beautiful, so that’s what I am doing. Being here with you, is joyful for me. Now-“ she waved me forward with her hands. “Go try on that last dress. I have a good feeling about it.”

I gave her a loving smile. Such a strong little woman. I wish I had half the strength she had. I couldn’t even imagine her loss. I nodded and went back into the changing room and took off the mermaid gown. “Oh, could you reach into my purse and hand me the earrings that are in the gift box? I want to try them on with this one.”

“Sure.” I heard her reply. After a few moments, she knocked on the door. I opened it slightly just enough to grab the box.

“Thank you.”

“Welcome.”

The door closed, I quickly threw on the earrings, admiring them for a moment before doing so. They were dainty and simple. A beautiful looking pale pink pearl. With them in place, I went and began to slide on the shorter gown, which caught my eye as I walked in earlier.

This one slid on like a glove. It was comfortable and like Suzy said, I too had a good feeling about this one. “Ready?” I asked. I managed to zip this dress up, considering it had a low back.

“Yes!” I heard Suzy cheer with excitement.

I closed my eyes and prayed this was the one. With a final breath, I opened the door and walked out.

Suzy’s eyes instantly spoke before her lips could. Bright, adoring eyes showered me as I stood before them. “Well?” I asked in a whisper.

“There are no words, Yn. You are beautiful, truly. Take a look for yourself.”

I nodded and turned to view myself in the mirror one last time. Tears instantly pooled in my eyes. Wow. The dress was perfect. It was me. The sheer fabric of the sleeves came down and covered up to my forearms, all decorated with a lace design, giving the illusion that I had lace flowers floating against my skin. The sheer fabric ran into the solid champagne color of the dress. The solid form was heart shaped, dipping down slightly and hugging my breasts perfectly. The top then came inward and pressed against my ribs, stomach and hips. All covered in a beautiful lace design that resembled my sleeves. A small light pink ribbon laid on my hips, then flowed down into the skirt which came down to right above my knees.

“Oh my…”

“This is it.”

“Yes… Yes it is.”

Suzy’s POV:

I am so happy for Yn. She and Jungkook belong together. I’m so glad she decided to have me come and be with her to pick out such an important dress.

It felt good to do something joyous again.

Yn pulled out her phone as we waited for the lady to bag up her dress. “Oh, no service.” She furrowed her brows.

“Yeah I lost service since we walked in here. Why not go outside and try there?”

She shrugged. “I’ll just wait and call Jungkook when we leave.”

I rolled my eyes and chuckled. “I know you want to call him. Go on, I’ll wait here and grab the dress. That way we can meet up for food sooner.”

My stomach growled in agreement and we both laughed.

“Alright, I’ll just be outside the door.” Yn smiled and walked out of the shop. I couldn’t help but smile as I saw her outside the windows, putting the phone to her ear and seeing how happy she was. Her face brightened up after a moment, and I guessed Jungkook had answered.

“Here’s the dress.” The lady grabbed my attention and I nodded at her, turning and grabbing the large bag. “Have a wonderful day.”

“Thank you. You do the same.” I held the hanger and held the bottom of the large bag to make sure it didn’t drag on the ground. As I turned, I looked up to find Yn still talking on the phone. I took a step forward.

A random black car pulled up beside her.

Yn wasn’t paying attention.

I took another step.

Two men got out of the car. Was it just me, or were they looking at her?

I took another step forward, faster this time. Something wasn’t right.

I froze, my eyes went wide, my heart starting beating fast. The men came around, grabbed Yn, covered her mouth and pulled her into the car.

Oh my god! I found my feet again, all too late. I dropped her dress, and ran out of the shop only to be met with the black car speeding away. “Yn!” I couldn’t breath. I couldn’t think. What just happened!? Did she really just get kidnapped!?

I looked down at found that her phone was laying on the ground. I bent down, picked it up and saw that Jungkook was still on the line.

“Jungkook?” I whispered placing it to my ear.

“Squirt!? What’s going on!? Where’s Yn!?”

Tears started falling down my cheeks, I still couldn’t think straight. “She was just taken… kidnapped.”

Oh my god.
