Despising you

THE END

L i s a

It's finally here. Jungkook and Yubi's wedding. The wedding hall is quite small, but it doesn't make a difference since there's only around fifty people present. The brown mahogany walls make Yubi's white dress stand out even more.

She's walking towards Jungkook now, her violet bouquet accompanying her. I've never seen him light up like this before, tears drenching his face.

I stand square shouldered next to him. I'm the only one on his side not wearing a suit. I did ponder on it, but I didn't want to match all the other groomsmen.

So instead, I'm wearing an elegant dark maroon dress with a slit in between my leg. It's possibly the fanciest dress I've ever worn in my life—and the most expensive—but it's worth it for his wedding.

Once Yubi reaches Jungkook, he takes her hands—clearly, they're unable to stop touching each other. Yubi's friend stands in front of them as she's officiating. I suck in a breath and focus on their vows.

Jungkook takes a deep, shaky breath in before beginning. "I'm not really good at talking about the way I feel but... I'm going to try my hardest... "

The guests audibly coo at his nervousness and he continues. "It's simple, really. You're the best thing that's ever happened to me Yub. I've never met a soul that's as beautiful, kind, and brilliant as you are. I promise to always be there for you, to protect you and cherish you, to never let the light you have dim."

His voice cracks and I can't seem to stop hanging onto his words and clearly neither can Yubi because she's openly bawling. "I love you, so terribly that I couldn't imagine spending my life with someone other than you... " as he readies himself to finish speaking, my eyes wander over to the entrance of the hall.

"I love you without any expectations, without any reservations. I love you as you are, with everything I am... " I can't hear the rest of what Jungkook says because in this very moment, my eyes meet hers.

Jennie. My breath is knocked out of me and my ears have been completely silenced. I can't hear anything; I can barely see anything... all is see is her.

Her eyes soften when they meet mine and she soon finds a seat on one of the circular tables, the very one that Jimin, Jisoo, and Tae are sitting at. I can't even look at them, but I'm sure they're probably sending knowing looks my way.

They assured me she would come today, regardless, I can't give them the satisfaction of my shocked gaze, because I can't take my eyes off her. She's sporting an emerald green satin dress, her silky hair down in waves, and her red lipstick is as enchanting as ever.

I have to force myself to avert my eyes from her. By the time I look back, it seems as if Yubi's vows are already done and they're kissing. People cheer and I find myself doing the same. They both turn and walk back down the aisle and before I know it, everyone's moving to the dance floor.

The crowd of people doesn't interest me as I try and push past so I can get to Jennie. I can't believe she's really here. After I left her crying outside of my door? I wouldn't blame her if she never wanted to speak to me again. I didn't even give her a chance to explain.

My thoughts are halted when I bump into a body and I look up in annoyance. It's a girl I'm not familiar with, because I would recognise dark ginger hair like that anywhere.

"You look just like your brother," the girl says.

I arch my eyebrows at her. "I'm assuming you're from the bride's side?" I don't mean to sound so snarky, but I'm trying to get to Jennie.

"Bride's cousin," she answers, her tone already flirty. "I'm Amelia."

"Lisa," I say politely, having to raise my voice a little so she can hear me over the music.
