:

Decorating the House

The house was grand, bustling with activity as the family prepared for the upcoming wedding.

Y/N: noticing someone from a distance "What is Shreya doing there?"

Y/M: "She’s too shy to come outside."

Y/N: "What? Shy? Why?"

Y/M: sighs "Because her soon-to-be husband is coming today."

Y/N: "Ohh, does that mean his parents are coming too?"

Y/M: shakes her head "No. His parents passed away when he was just five years old. His friend’s parents have looked after him since then."

Y/N: softly "Oh..."

Just then, the doorbell rang.

Yashveen: "Mom, I think they’re here!"

Y/M: "Go check the door. And Y/N, go and bring Shreya downstairs."

Yashveen/Y/N: "Okay, Mom!"

Yashveen hurried to open the door while Y/N went to Shreya’s room.

At the Door

Yashveen opens the door and gasps in excitement.

Yashveen: "Jiju!" grins widely

Jimin: chuckles "Yashveen! How are you?"

Yashveen: "I’m great! How about you?"

Jimin: winks "Always great!"

Y/M: appearing at the door "Jimin, you’re finally here!"

Jimin: "Yes, Mom! How have you been?" hugs her warmly

Y/M: "I’m wonderful, dear. And you?"

Jimin: "Couldn’t be better!"

Y/M: noticing the group behind him "Oh, are they your friends?"

Jimin: gestures behind him "Yes, Mom, these are my friends."

BTS: in unison, bowing politely "Hello, Aunty!"

Y/M: "Hello, hello! Why don’t you all introduce yourselves?"

Namjoon: steps forward "Hello, I’m Kim Namjoon, but you can call me RM."

Yoongi: calmly "Hi, I’m Min Yoongi, or just Suga."

Jin: grinning "Hello, I’m Kim Seokjin, the World Wide Handsome. You can call me Jin."

Y/M: laughing "Oh, how charming!"

J-Hope: beaming "Hi, I’m Jung Hoseok, but you can call me your hope—J-Hope!"

Taehyung: with a poker face "Kim Taehyung."

Jungkook: smiling brightly "Hi, I’m Jeon Jungkook. Just Jungkook is fine."

Y/M: "Lovely to meet you all. Please, come inside."

They all enter the house, greeted warmly.

In Shreya’s Room

Y/N: "Shreya! Why are you so shy? He’s your husband, for goodness’ sake!"

Shreya: hiding her face with her hands "I can’t help it... He’s just... so flirty!"

Y/N: rolling her eyes "Oh, come on. Are you coming, or should I call him up here?"

Shreya: gasping "No, no! Don’t you dare! I’m coming!"

They both make their way downstairs. As they approach, Y/N’s steps falter as her eyes land on a familiar figure.

In the Living Room

Y/N freezes when her eyes meet Taehyung’s. Both of them appear momentarily stuck in place, unable to look away.

Shreya: whispering "Yah, why did you stop? Let’s go!"

Y/N: snapping out of it "O-Oh, yeah. Let’s go."

They join the group, where the introductions continue.

Y/M: "Oh, Shreya, come here!"

Y/N stands to the side, feeling slightly ignored.

Y/N: (thinking) "Wow, Mom, you just forgot me... fake tears."

Shreya: shyly "Hello, everyone."

BTS: "Hello!"

Meanwhile, Y/N and Taehyung continue exchanging glances, which doesn’t go unnoticed by Jungkook.

Jungkook: clears his throat loudly "Ahem, ahem."

Taehyung: snapping back to reality

Y/M: "Y/N, are you okay?"

Y/N: flustered "Huh? Oh, yeah. Hello, everyone."

BTS: smiling politely "Hello!"

Namjoon begins introducing them once again.

Namjoon: "I’m Kim Namjoon, or RM."

Yoongi: "Min Yoongi. Call me Suga."

Jin: "Kim Seokjin, World Wide Handsome. Just Jin is fine."

Y/N: laughing softly "Got it, Jin."

J-Hope: "I’m your hope, your sunshine—J-Hope!"

Jimin: "Park Jimin. Nice to meet you."

Shreya blushes, stealing a glance at Jimin.

Taehyung: coldly "Taehyung."

Y/N: (thinking) "Rude much."

Jungkook: playfully whispering to Taehyung "At least try to smile, man."

Taehyung: grumbling "Fine."

Jungkook: "And I’m Jeon Jungkook. Nice to meet you."

Y/N: "Nice to meet you all!"

BTS: "Nice to meet you too, Y/N."

After the Introductions

Y/D: "Everyone, I’d like to announce that the Mehndi ceremony is tomorrow!"

Y/M: "Yes! Y/N, please show everyone to their rooms."

Y/N: "Sure, Mom. Please follow me, everyone."

She leads the boys to their rooms in the spacious house before retreating to her own room.

In Y/N’s Room

Y/N: collapsing onto her bed "Ah, my lovely room. I’ve missed you!"

She looks around, smiling fondly at her surroundings. Then, realizing tomorrow is the Mehndi, she begins browsing for designs.

Y/N: "This one’s gorgeous! Hmm, let’s see... Oh, I need to pick my dress too! Oh no!"

She sighs dramatically, already anticipating the busy day ahead.
