CHAPTER 1 | Silence

Before you read: I'll be mentioning y/n as 'her' and not 'you' like I used to. It's just that I'm trying this new style of writing. It makes the story less complicated to read and write :)

31st August, 2021

The silver Rolex on his wrist struck exact 7:30 by the time he had parked his black Mercedes outside the huge mansion he owned. The sun had already disappeared behind the clouds as the darkness claimed the entire sky. He got off his car, a tired sigh followed by as he took hard and slow steps towards the huge gate which led him to his home. Knowing that the door was probably locked, and his wife wouldn't be there to open it like she used to, he didn't even tried to ring the doorbell for once as he just fished out the spare keys from his trousers, unlocking it.

The silence of the house welcomed him. No, no one. Just absolute silence. He heaved once again, hanging the keys on the wall hook as he walked inside with noticeably slow and smaller steps. The weight of his black coat felt heavy on his shoulders, so he took it off , dropping it on the couch as he plopped his body on the soft material as well. He could have drank some water to moisten his dry throat, but somehow didn't felt like. Instead, he took out his phone to just randomly scroll through his socials, this being a nice excuse to keep him away from all the thoughts inside his brain.

A few more minutes passed in utter silence. Nothing but the sound of his soft breathing and the hard hits of his heart against his chest, until it was interrupted by the click- clack sound of someone's footsteps. His fingers unconsciously stopped scrolling through his phone as all his attention went towards the familiar footsteps coming closer to him from somewhere behind him. "Jungkook..?"

Her soft voice resounded in the vastness of the living room, and he felt himself closing his eyes at the sound of it. "I didn't expected you to come this early, I was going to call you.." he heard her chuckle. Now she was in front of him, he could sense it easily as her soft cologne penetrated his nostrils, giving a tease to his brain.

He opened his eyes to look at the floor but his gaze landed on her foot which she decorated with a pair of black heels. His eyes looked up at her, and his lips parted slightly as he felt a jittery sensation in the pit of his belly. Her hazel brown eyes stared into his pair of dark brown ones so lovingly, but they seemed to have a greater effect with the soft glittery eyeshadow she wore above her eyelids. He had a hard time looking away from her captivating eyes, but the moment he did, his stomach almost did a backflip once her soft, red lips formed a cresent shape at him. His heart hit him hard in his chest once his eyes stared at her from all the way top to bottom. Her long, pitch black bodycon dress hugged her so perfectly, emphasizing each of her breathtaking curves around her waist and hips that hid under the fabric.

He gulped a little. She looked beyond perfect. This sentence that she looked beautiful wound be an understatement to describe her heavenly beauty. She looked ethereal in every other sense. Elegance and class defined her so well that the man sitting in front of him felt insecure about himself, thinking that he probably doesn't deserves such perfection.

"You can stop staring at me now, I am tired of standing in the same pose..." She chuckled a little, walking closer to him as she kept her small handbag on the couch near his coat. He sat straight and cleared his throat to maybe say something which could ease the tension between them, but before he could, her palms rested on his shoulders and in the next spur of moment, she was on his lap. His left hand immediately snaked sound her waist as he felt like she would fall if he didn't.

"Are you sweating because of me?" She asked, smiling after as she ran her slender fingers through his black, slightly curled hairs. He smiled at her. "Yes..you make me feel so hot" He got himself more comfortable, leaning back on the couch with her to continue staring at her with his heart eyes, full of love.
