"Felix! When are the flowers going to be here!" Jisung whined, having been told to sit and not move so the makeup noona could do their job.

"In thirty minutes. Hyunjin and Seungmin have that covered. Chan ensured the caterers were doing what they needed. Changbin and Jeongin are helping Minho. Take a deep breath for me, okay? We've got you, Ji." 

Jisung listened to his birthday twin, even if he didn't want to do as instructed. "Alright. I want everything perfect. This has been a long time coming. Our parents are here and it's on our anniversary. I haven't seen him for two days! We made sure not to have sex for the past month!"

"Oh no. I feel so sorry for you." Felix teased, rolling his eyes at how pathetic he sounded.

Sitting back, pouting while being moved to a better position by the makeup noona. "You don't understand-."

"Jisung-ssi, before you go into that. Can I please finish your makeup? I do not want to hear more about you and Minho-ssi; you are my favorites. No more, I beg you!" Flushing, speaking a soft sorry to her. She smiled, "I'm glad to hear you are happy; you and your group deserve all the good that has come your way." 

"Thank you." 

"You're are most welcome. You are done. I will return before you walk down the aisle to do last-minute touches and apply something to your lips. Okay?"

"Thank you, noona." 

"You're welcome. Now, have fun gossiping about how great Minho is at sex." 

Blanching at her boldness, she walked away tee-heeing. "You talk about how good the dicking is you get. Even the makeup noona can't stand to hear about it." Felix joined in on the teasing

"But, it's been a month. A whole month of no touches, barely a make-out session. I know, we agreed on it together because it'll make tonight that much better. But. Fuck! The tension is driving me crazy!" 

"Can you not pop one while sitting here with me?" The now blond-haired Felix teased

"Fuck off." 

Laughing together, they moved to sit on the couch. There was still an hour left. "How long have you guys been married now?" 

"Oh, two years. One year since we've left the company, four almost five years since the attack. Looking back, we have done so much." Gazing at his best friend

"Yeah, but has it been worth it?" 

"You know it has." Jisung's gaze went to the ceiling. "I never thought I'd get to marry Minho, let alone a second time. It feels like life was so unfair but gave me so much." 

"It ran us through the ringer, more so you two than anyone else. I know this isn't a happy ending because there will always be your next curb or next obstacle. Yet, you two have gotten through some of the toughest moments."

"We couldn't have done it without our family." Jisung finally looked at Felix

Smiling at his bond brother, "Well. Maybe, but you don't have to be alone." 

Jisung grinned back at him. "No, and it's nice. It's nice to have that reminder too." 

Sitting in a soft silence, taking in details of the day. "You going on a honeymoon?" 

Jisung giggled while shrugging. "Yeah, we didn't think that our boss would be cool with it. But, we brought it up to them. They gave us some time off. We're going to Japan then we're off to Switzerland."

"You must have some pretty great bosses." 

"Yeah. You know they can be a challenge. They're pretty cool. Some of them are old." 

"Yeah? Old, Jisung?" Chan walked in, teasing one of the grooms.

"Yeah, as Seungminnie likes to say, half of whatever you're at now." Jisung laughed with Felix, who fell together.

"Fine, roast the old man. If it makes you feel better on your special day." 

Giggling together, "Thank you, hyung. You know we love you." 

"I do. I love you. Catering is here and setting up. The managers and planners have taken over." Hearing his phone pin, the boys hung on the edge of their seats. "Oh, the flowers are here being placed. You're bouquet is coming." 

"Oh, thank the heavens. I wasn't sure he was going to make it!" Felix joked

"Yah!" Jisung pouted, hearing a knocking on the door

Shooting up, Felix opened the door first before Jisung had the chance. "Hey, I have a special delivery."

"They are gorgeous! Thank you, Hyunjinnie!" Jisung snagged the flowers. He stuck his face into them and inhaled deeply. "Aw, they smell so good too!"

"They look good with your outfit." 

"Thanks..." They moved back into the room, noticing that time had flown by. 

Another knock on the door caused the group to turn around to see Jisung's father and then his mother. "Look at you. All grown up and getting officially married." 

Chuckling, "Yeah, I can't believe it's happening. That in a few minutes, we will be married in front of everyone." 

"You better believe it. It seems like only yesterday we were sitting at a picnic when you told us you were gay. That you were so scared we were going to refuse you. I'm so happy you told us!" Jisung's mother came in, patting his cheek.

"I'm happy too!"

"Excuse me, I need to finish getting him ready. You can continue talking." The makeup noona hurried back in, sneaking in the middle of the family gathering.

Hearing the family say, of course. They continue reminiscing about the previous years and hearing about their elopement. 

"Stop! I don't want to cry yet!" Jisung whined, earning a laugh from the others.

"Our sweet boy. Should we go get ready?" 

"Yeah."

"We'll see you up there, okay?" Felix spoke, earning the spot of best man. His brother accepted the title of groomsman. He understood the bond that had formed and could not be as involved in the wedding as he wanted. 

Jisung looked back to his flowers, thinking back to the past year. The group worried they would become distant since they weren't living together. Yet, they seemed closer than ever. He and Minho seemed closer than ever, planning this wedding together. He worked closely with the best men. Minho chose Changbin after a long deliberation. 

He wasn't sure who to choose but listened to Jisung's options. The elder trusted his input. It was something the younger male didn't understand but went with it. Minho continued listening through the process and was there to input his opinion, especially when there were so many choices!  At times, it was stressful. No matter what, Minho was always there to help narrow them down. The elder reassured him it was their decision, no one else's. Jisung had worried about whether others would like their choices. 

"You ready, Jisung?" His parents asked him, not noticing that everyone else had left them. 

Looking back at his parents. "Yeah, more than ever." Grinning wide, taking their arms. All nerves left his body at the prospect of seeing Minho. Knowing that no matter what, like Minho always said, they'd always find a way to put the pieces back together.
