-Start of Chapter 94-

As we step onto the balcony, I push open the glass doors with an exaggerated sigh of relief. "Ughhh, finally." I say, my voice carrying a dramatic flair as I stretch my arms wide. 

The fresh evening breeze brushes against my skin, carrying with it the scent of flowers from the nearby gardens. I can't resist spinning toward the edge, my dress fluttering as I lean over the railing, taking in the breathtaking view of the countryside. The golden hues of the setting sun bathe the world in a soft, dreamlike glow.

Behind me, I hear a low chuckle, deep and soothing, and my lips curve into a smile before I even turn around. "What's so funny?" I ask, glancing over my shoulder at Sunghoon.

He's watching me with an expression so tender it makes my chest tighten. "Nothing," he replies, his voice warm and velvety. He steps closer, his presence wrapping around me like a comforting embrace. "I just like seeing you happy."

My heart flutters, and I turn fully to face him, leaning back against the railing. "Is that so?" I tease, but the softness in his gaze makes my voice come out quieter than I intended.

He doesn't answer with words. Instead, his hands gently settle on my waist, pulling me closer until there's barely any space left between us. The closeness of him sends a flutter through my chest, and I giggle softly, tilting my head up to meet his gaze.

On a whim, I lean in, pressing a soft, fleeting kiss to his lips. It's brief, just enough to make his eyes sparkle with mischief when I pull back.

Sunghoon chuckles again, his voice low and teasing. "That's not enough," he murmurs, his tone playful. 

Before I can react, his lips capture mine in a deeper kiss, one that's sweet and unhurried, as if he has all the time in the world. His hand moves to the small of my back, holding me close as the world around us seems to fade away..

When we finally pull apart, just enough to breathe, I can't help but smile up at him, my cheeks warm despite the cool evening air.

My cheeks are flushed, and I'm certain my heart is racing loud enough for him to hear.

"Better?" I ask, my voice barely above a whisper.

Grinning, he rests his forehead lightly against mine, "Much"

Before the serene moment could linger any longer, the balcony door creaks open, and a voice interrupts, dripping with mock disgust.

"Oh, for the love of everything holy, can you two save this for later? Some of us have stomachs, you know."

Sunghoon and I both turn to see Jungwon standing in the doorway, arms crossed and an exaggerated grimace on his face. "Seriously, you're going to gross everyone out. They're about to throw the bouquet, so unless you want someone else claiming it, I'd suggest you both come downstairs."

I pull back slightly, biting back a laugh at Sunghoon's annoyed expression. Jungwon, clearly unfazed, raises an eyebrow as if daring us to challenge him.

"Bouquet toss?" I gasp, suddenly forgetting everything else. My eyes light up with excitement, and I practically push myself off the railing. "I'm not missing that!"

Before Sunghoon can say a word, I dart past Jungwon, my dress flowing behind me as I rush through the doors and down the stairs. "Hurry up!" I call over my shoulder, not bothering to check if they're following.
