Euphoria

"Can't Help Falling In Love With You"

Sung Jin-Woo

I woke up in an unfamiliar bed, and sat up with a groan. Rubbing my eyes lazily, I looked around the room and the memories rushed back to me. I rolled out of the bed, in nothing but boxers.

I had stayed the night at Jin-Ho's place, since Jin-Ah had forced me out of my own house. Well, it is said seeing the bride before a wedding is bad luck, so she probably did it for that reason. I never believed in those superstitions, but since she's the one who planned our entire wedding, it was only fair.

I got my clothes and made my way to the shower, passing Jin-Ho, who was sleeping on his couch. His snores hurt my ears as I walked into the bathroom, and I sighed happily as the water drowned out the noise. I had to be ready before eleven, since the ceremony was at 11:35.

We both agreed not to have it in a church, and rather outside in a park that Jin-Ah rented out for us. She also insisted on renting a band and an entire penthouse suit for the after party. Granted, it was a good idea. The penthouse had a huge outdoor balcony, pool, grill and even more. I had a lot of money saved up, so I combined it with Rin-Cha's savings to pay for this exquisite night. Jin-Ah had invited a lot of people, some that even I didn't know. Rin-Cha invited a few of her Japanese friends, and they were flown into Korea just a week ago.

I had asked a few of the S Rankers in Korea if they'd want to attend, and half of them said yes. I figured not all of them would want to come celebrate something like this, since they had their own lives and things to do. But for the five who had said yes, they let me know they would be attending both the ceremony and the afterparty, so I guess that was exciting.

I massaged the conditioner into my hair softly, and washed it off in a few minutes. I stepped out of the shower and dried off my body, wrapping the towel around my waist. I took another one and dried my soaking wet hair until it was just damp.

I walked out of the washroom to see Jin-Ho awake in the kitchen, and sleepily sipping on a coffee. He waved at me and yawned, and I returned it. My tux was in the closet of the room I was staying in, so that was where I was headed next.

Pulling it out, I smiled and tossed it gently onto the bed. I grabbed a pair of boxers and socks and put them on slowly, not in any rush. I still wanted to get a good breakfast, and it was only 9:30 in the morning.

I slipped into a white collar shirt, and put on the coat right after. I stepped into the dress pants, and tucked the bottom of the shirt into the waistband. I wanted to at least look nice for this, since it was my wedding day. To me, all that mattered was seeing Rin-Cha in the most beautiful dress walking down the aisle, a smile on her gorgeous face. Nothing else mattered today but her.

I shook my hair a bit, deciding to let it air dry before heading to the venue. Jin-Ho saw me as I walked out of the room, a smile on his face.

"You look great. She'll love it," he said, and handed me a coffee.

"Thanks. Got any food?"

"Yeah, there's eggs and milk in the fridge. A few more things that should help you get energy for today. I suggest not to eat a lot though, since you're gonna have a shit ton of food at the banquet afterparty."

"Gotcha," I said, and grabbed a few things out of the fridge.

"I'm gonna go shower, see you in a few minutes."

"I think you mean hours."
"I don't take that long," he sneered, making me chuckle.

"Oh but you do. Just take your time, we're in no rush."

He nodded and waved as he stopped into the bathroom, coughing loudly.

"You okay?" I called, and he stepped out, his nose plugged with his hand.
