Jungkook's POV

Tonight felt different somehow. It felt special. The band had been going through a lot lately and we'd very nearly disbanded. Jimin and I knew we were part of the ongoing strain on our band, though no one would say that to either of us. I got the distinct feeling that it was a topic that they would discuss when we weren't around though. The 2018 MMA's really felt like a fresh beginning.

Jimin and I leaned into the excitement in the air, not just from the other idols and groups, but also from our own members. I still wasn't sure how he'd managed it, but Namjoon had found a way to address all the issues that had been causing us so many problems. He looked weary, but he seemed to be happier than ever. The whole group was more emotional than we'd been since we debuted, knowing that if things had gone differently, this would have been our swan song.

Namjoon had tried, initially, to separate myself and Jimin, but we kept finding our way back to each other and he gave up. Jimin took every opportunity to flirt shamelessly with me. I just sat as close as I could, drinking every moment with him, and talking with him. I was completely under his spell tonight. Love and awe for my beautiful boyfriend flowed in my every movement.

I pulled Jimin down onto the cushioned bench as everyone clapped for the last performance. "I love you with everything I have. You know that, right?"

He smiled a shy smile, crescent shaped eyes peering up at me from under the fringe of his bangs. Jimin threw his arm over me and I mirrored his gesture.

"What am I to you? You to me? Where are we going from here, Jungkook?"

I grinned and replied easily, "Husband."

Jimin dropped his arm beaming bashfully. I nodded slightly. "Boyfriend."

He forcefully brought the features of that chiseled face back under control as he turned from me to pretend to be interested in the awards ceremony. My emotions were not as easily contained as I began thumping his shoulder with a fist, massaging the back of his neck.

Jimin's POV

I couldn't believe it! Jungkook had said husband! He wanted to be my husband one day! Struggling to contain the joy welling inside me, I recalled all the times I'd put myself out there to him only to be publicly rejected and humiliated. To see the changes he'd made for me to see what I meant to him...it was still so unbelievable. I thought back to how he'd said he'd always felt this way about me and that he'd vowed to make sure that I could see it as plainly as he felt it.  My heart ached from the thoughtfulness and his attention to how I received love.

One day, you'll be my husband, but for now, I'm so glad to have you as my boyfriend, Jeon Jungkook, I thought wistfully as I attempted to focus on the noise and commotion of the awards show.
