Wedding day

Taehyung's phone rang, shrill in the morning silence. He groggily reached over to answer it, his heart sinking as he heard his parents' voices on the other end. "We'll be there in 15 minutes, son," his father said, his tone cheerful.
Taehyung's mind racing, he instantly threw off the covers and got out of bed. He remembered that Yn was sleeping in a different room, and he knew he had to act fast. He rushed towards her room, his heart pounding in his chest.
As he entered her room, he saw Yn sleeping peacefully, hugging a pillow tightly. Taehyung's heart ached as he gazed at her serene face. He didn't want to disturb her peaceful sleep, not after all the pain he had caused her.
With gentle hands, Taehyung scooped Yn up in his arms, careful not to wake her. He softly carried her to his bedroom, trying not to jostle her. As he laid her down on his bed, he couldn't help but feel a pang of regret for his past actions.
Taehyung quickly exited his room and found Mia, his main maid, waiting outside. "Mia, make sure my parents don't find out that Yn was sleeping in a different room," he whispered urgently. "And open the door to my room, I needn't to go back in."
Mia nodded discreetly and hurried to obey Taehyung's instructions. Taehyung rushed back into his room, hoping to compose himself before his parents arrived. As he entered, he saw Yn still sleeping peacefully, oblivious to the chaos that was about to ensue.
Without thinking, Taehyung climbed into bed beside Yn, wrapping his arms around her and pulling her close. He buried his face in her hair, inhaling the sweet scent of her shampoo. For a moment, he forgot about his parents, forgot about the fake smile he needed to wear. All he could think about was Yn, and how much he wanted to make things right between them.
As he held her, Taehyung felt a sense of peace wash over him. He knew it was fleeting, knew that his parents would soon arrive and the charade would begin. But for now, he just wanted to hold Yn, to feel her warmth and her presence. He closed his eyes, savoring the moment, and let himself drift off to sleep, wrapped in Yn's gentle embrace.

As Taehyung's parents entered the house, his mother asked Mia, "Where are Yn and Taehyung?"
Mia replied, "They're both sleeping in his room, ma'am."
Taehyung's parents exchanged a knowing glance, and his mother's face broke into a wide smile. "Ah, I see," she said, her voice dripping with amusement. "It seems our son and daughter-in-law have already started their married life, even before the official ceremony!"
His father chuckled, his eyes twinkling with mirth. "I guess we can't be surprised, considering their history. They've always been a passionate couple."
Taehyung's mother nodded, her smile growing wider. "Yes, and it seems they can't even wait until after the wedding to be together. I suppose we'll just have to pretend we don't know what's going on."
Both parents burst out laughing, their joy and amusement filling the hallway. Mia, however, maintained a straight face, her expression professional as always.
Meanwhile, in Taehyung's room, the two lovers slept peacefully, oblivious to the commotion they had caused. Taehyung's arms still wrapped tightly around Yn, holding her close as they both slumbered, lost in their own little world.

Taehyung's mom approached his room, ready to wake the couple. Meanwhile, Taehyung was lost in the sight of Yn's peaceful face. Her lips, soft and inviting, beckoned him to come closer. He couldn't resist the urge to kiss her, to feel her warmth and gentle touch.
Slowly, Taehyung leaned in, his eyes fixed on Yn's lips. He brushed against them softly, his own lips barely touching hers. It was a gentle caress, a whisper of a kiss.
Yn, sensing the touch, stirred in her sleep. She felt the soft pressure of Taehyung's lips, and her body responded instinctively. She hastily opened her eyes, finding Taehyung's face inches from hers.
For a moment, they just stared at each other, Taehyung's eyes locked onto Yn's. Then, Yn's instincts took over, and she pushed him away, her hands on his chest. "Taehyung, what are you doing?" she whispered, her voice laced with surprise and a hint of alarm.
Yn's eyes narrowed, her expression a mix of confusion and annoyance. "You can't just kiss me while I'm sleeping," she whispered back, her voice firm but gentle.
Taehyung looked crestfallen, his eyes dropping to the floor. "I'm sorry," he mumbled.
Just then, Taehyung's mom knocked on the door, breaking the tense moment. "Good morning, kids! Time to wake up!" she chimed, oblivious to the scene she had just interrupted.
Yn's eyes flashed to the door, then back to Taehyung. She sighed, rubbing her temples. "We need to talk about this later," she whispered, her voice firm.
Taehyung nodded, still looking sheepish. "Yeah, sorry again," he mumbled.
As they both got out of bed, Yn couldn't help but wonder what other surprises the day had in store for her.
