"Yuri." His voice came deeply from behind, a smile cracked the surface of my lips, I looked at Niki, standing beside the table.

The four of them did not cut their eyes off Niki, mouthes widening, Miyeon almost spitting out her water and Joyeon choking on her food.

"Oh, hey? How come you're here?" I was glad to see him, just a little confused to why he was here.

Before he could even say anything, Joyeon interrupt him.

"Do not even tell me that is your husband-to-be. Yuri, be fucking serious." Joyeon was staring at Niki with pure dazzle and sparkle in her eyes.

"Is he single..?" Miyeon blurt out, all of them were still non-stop staring at him as if he was some kind of God.

Niki chuckled, sitting on the last free chair around our table.

"Nice to meet you. I am infact, Yuri's husband to be." He bowed his head very slightly, the girls were still in disbelief.

"How much was that ring. Be honest. No fucking way, I need to see you guys kiss to make sure this is real." Joyeon slammed her hands on the table, looking at both of us.

Niki raised a brow slightly, looking at me with a smug smirk. I didn't even really mind this, Joyeon only did me a favour. I pulled his face closer and kissed him on the lips, I only intended it for it to be short and quick, but he clearly didn't want me to pull away.

I felt it as I pulled my lips away from his. He longed for more.

"No way." Miyeon was astonished, "I was wondering why you refused to go on any dates with guys earlier. You were hiding this hell of a guy from us?!"

I chuckled, but then turned to look at Niki, a slight wave of concern written in his eyes. He was trying to tell me something.

"I need to speak to you." He whispered lowly, and the way his eyes looked at me, meant that it was pretty serious.

We excused ourselves from the table.

"THE FAMILY BATHROOM IS FREE IF YOU GUYS AREN'T SHY!" Joyeon yelled as we walked away, I shook my head laughing at her comment. Niki gave a chuckle as he grabbed my wrist lightly and took me outside of the building.

He stared down at me, I looked up at him.

"What's up?" I questioned, what could've been so important that he'd have to come here himself.

"Listen, Baekhyeon is after you." Niki quietly muttered, swallowing hard, "You need to be careful and carry a weapon. Or even stay with me everywhere." His breath hitched, and he desperately stared at me.

"I know he's after me, one of his men tried attacking me in the bathroom a few days ago." I confessed to him, and his jaw clenched in frustration, his grip on my wrist fixating a little tighter.

"Why didn't you tell me?!" He scolded me in a low, quiet tone.

"I didn't think you'd care.." I told him, and he pressed his fingers against the bridge of his nose, letting out a sigh.

"Yuri, anything regarding you, I care about." He groaned in exasperation, "You need to tell me these things, you aren't enough to take down Park's men singlehandedly."

My heart filled with warmth at his words, but at the same time, shook with a little nervousness. It'd be an awful death to be killed by your own father.

"I know but Niki, you're busy alot of the times, I don't wanna bother you and I just feel like I'll seem weak if I rely on you too mu-"

Before I could say anything, he pulled me into a kiss, one longer and more passionate than the quick one inside of the restaurant. He pulled away, this time, he definitely satisfied his hunger.

I looked at him nervously, heart pacing out of my chest like none other. We stared at each other for a good few seconds before he even said anything. I think we had both just realised the exact same thing, but we were too afraid to even voice it out audibly.

His grip on my wrist loosened to hold my hand as he stared in my eyes, passion written throughout them.

"Without you I'm nothing Yuri. It's not just because of this dumb marriage contract, everything feels empty when you're not home." Niki sighed, suddenly confessing his feelings subtly, "You know how badly it'd hurt me if you once never came home? Seriously, I don't even want to let you go out like this just incase of that happening."

"Niki, what are you even saying right now..?" My breath hitched, staring into his sincere eyes.

"I'm saying that I love you."
