Silent Sabotage 2

Chapter 35

Days and month went by until the day Y/n once again was herself.

She turned into the bright girl the world forgot, the admirable sister Yoongi knew, the charming woman jungkook fell for once again. And the broken pieces of their scattered relationship was now healing.

It was the early hours of morning, when she stired awake to find herself alone in their shared bedroom. And remembering the warm cuddles she fell asleep with last night wasn't making her feel any better to wake up cold.

Pushing the blankets aside from her body, Y/n left her bed and checked the bathroom just to be sure. It was empty and dry.

Frowning a little she made her way out of the room and to the stairs leading towards the cozy living room before coming across the kitchen counter where she found him busy.

Despite Jungkook crossing all the limits of surprises during the past months, each one turns out to be unexpected. And she sometimes questions to herself, 'how have I never gotten used to it?'

Crouching down a little in the small table of their kitchen with cream cones, chopped fruits, batter smeared bowl, chocolate sticks and so much more things surrounding him, Jungkook was cream decorating what seemed like a home made cake. He was doing it so keen attention that he failed to notice the approaching footsteps until she stood a few steps away.

Y/n : you didn't had to do all this, you know...

The slight flinch of his body didn't escape her eyes, making her lips curve in a small smile.

Jungkook : you woke up.

He acknowledged.

Y/n : I did. And you could have just wished and did a simple breakfast to the highest. It would have been enough.

Jungkook : firstly, I already wished you in your sleep second, we do have a special date tonight and third...

He walks towards her, closing the gap between their bodies until they were inches apart.

Jungkook : there's nothing left in this world which would be enough for you. And I need you to understand that, everything that I'm doing is my only way to not make myself overwhelm with the feeling of lacking.

Y/n : you know I don't judge you for that, right?

Jungkook : I do..but it cannot stop me from wanting to cherish you every day, every moment.

Jungkook delicately lifts her hand before pressing his lips on the back of it gently.

Jungkook : Happy Birthday, Y/n.

The wide smile that streches her mouth was so bright it made him smile immediately.

Y/n : Thank you.

She softly smiles at him. And then again there was this pull that the two kept resisting for long now. Both having individual causes.

Jungkook was the first one to break the silence.

Jungkook : go and freshen up first, I'll clear the mess and set the breakfast.

For a second, she looked like she wanted to say something but refrained herself and nodded with a tight smile.

Jungkook smiles and watches as Y/n walks upstairs before occupying himself in his chore.

The day went with presents and surprises for Y/n. After the home made breakfast, Y/n went to Yoongis place along Jungkook for lunch.

Jimin, A/n and others were present there as well for a small gathering. With gifts and well wishes for their unborn child, Y/n was simply pampered by everyone. While A/n wasn't exactly sure how to be happy for her sisters baby knowing what awaits before them, she still had to hold onto herself no matter what. So masking her pain and guilts, she attended the small lunch and wished Y/n and Jungkook happiness.

Yoongi notices the lingering stares of A/n at Y/n, but bruses it off as nothing important. And like everyone else, Yoongi pampered his little and favorite sister with everything and anything.

It was evening when the couple left for their home and hours before they finally reached.

Y/n couldn't ask for anymore of a perfect birthday celebration. She had this dreamy smile on her face all day and when she stepped inside their threshold, she hadn't thought there still left another surprise for her.

The house was dark with only the little light coming from backyard door. Following which she was met with fairy lights, rose petals, candles, ribbons, balloons, lanterns decorating the small yard of their house. It was enchanting to look at.

Her eyes were sparkling when she turned around to ask Jungkook, only to suck in a breath.

Jungkook was right there, kneeling before her while pulling out something from his blazer pocket. She knew exactly what he was gonna do but that didn't stop her heart from racing so fast.

Fishing the small round purple box and lifting it towards her, he started talking.

Jungkook : I don't know what the world would call me after this and I don't even care, all I know is, I want to call you my wife once again and make our marriage feel real. One without scars, lies, hate, heartache, pain. So with all the courage and hope I want to ask you, Y/n, will you marry me please?

Months ago, before they came to their home he had asked her to marry him but she didn't give him an answer. And little did he knew, she was hoping he wouldn't ask it twice. Because, while he was trying to build happiness for her, he unknownly was digging the grave of pain for himself deeper with each day.

She slowly kneels down to match his eye level untill the two were starring at each other.

And she knew, the next time he would asking her this, she won't be able to refuse.

Y/n : I will.

The corners of his eyes stinked as his orbs began to glistening. She couldn't fight the smile that curves her lips before leaning in and pressing her lips against his in a tender way.

And it broke the barrier as tears began to stream down his cheeks, wetting hers in the process.
