Lemon wine | mystic messenger Jumin x MC fan fiction

Chapter 12: I don't understand

My tired golden eyes gradually opened. I started to see a blurry faint figure of a person leaning over me from my right side. As soon as my vision went into focus, I could see it was Jumin leaning over me from the side of the bed I was lying on. I then soon realized I was in the same place and position as I was when I came back from our leisurely walk down to the woods at the end of the street around the corner. It was all just my imagination. It was only a dream.

I slowly pushed myself up right on the bed and sat up to look at Jumin kneeling next to me with his hand on the bed with a soft, caring smile. It was warm and made me feel more relaxed as I fidgeted trying to get more comfortable sitting down.

"Did you have a nice rest then Lauren?" He asked, moving closer slightly. I smiled back at him. He always makes me feel so happy and relaxed. Maybe I should start talking what my dream was about into some consideration.

"Yes, I did thank you." I replied in a cheerful yet calm manner.

Jumin stood up.

"Would you like me to get you anything, Lauren?" He laughed sweetly, asking me just in case before he presumably was going to leave the room. I shook my head.

"No thank you." I answered. He left. My mind went straight back to my dream I had just had. About marrying Jumin. But to be honest, would Zen really have my blessing to do so? Yoosung must probably would but I wouldn't of thought Zen would be so happy if that were to happen. He seemed really upset with me being with him already let alone marrying him. Though I would hope that he would respect my wishes. It's sad that he doesn't get along very well with Jumin.

I got myself out of bed and into the TV room to sit down.

Should I ask Jumin about marriage yet? Maybe I should give it some time before we start planning that kind of thing. 

Jumin came back into the bedroom.

"Lunch is ready, Lauren!" He cheered, Lending me his hand.

"Thank you Jumin. I'll be there in a second." I informed, glancing behind me through the window.

"Okay my princess. I'll be awaiting your sweet presence for you out on the balcony. After all, It's a lovely day today!" Jumin told me before leaving the room once more.

I should really go and have lunch with him now. I'm so happy that he's being more positive now about the whole situation. It shouldn't put him down. Thinking about it, it's almost valentine's day. I wonder if he's planning anything for us both. I guess he must of been a little distracted by V's news. Oh well. Better go off to lunch with Jumin. I wonder what we're eating today.

I started making my way to the balcony where Jumin said he'd be waiting for me. As soon as I made it there, I saw Jumin sitting, waiting patiently for me at a relatively small table covered with a snowy white table cloth and a little vase sweetly situated perfectly in the middle. One of his hands were placed at the side of his professionally made food and the other was elegantly holding a glass filled three quarters of red wine.

He soon noticed me waiting by the door. He lifted his head up as he smiled.

"Ah, Lauren. It's nice to see you've finally joined me for lunch! Sit down with me and enjoy!" Jumin announced before taking a small sip of his drink.

I shyly nodded and sat down. Looking at the nice plate laid out in front of me reminded me of how really hungry I actually was. I picked up my specially made sandwich and started to take little bites. Jumin cleared his throat.

"It was a great idea of yours to have a nice and relaxing time out too the woods." Jumin thanked me, giving me a warm smile.

"Did you enjoy seeing the tree that V and I used to go to?" He then asked me. I stuttered a little.

"Yes I d-did. It was beautiful. You two are so lucky to have such a nice spot to go to when you guys were little. I must say I'm quite jealous." I chuckled slightly, taking another bite from my sandwich.

It really tasted good. Sometimes I feel a bit bad having so much money. I wouldn't exactly say I used to be poor but I never had that much money. When I was small, I didn't get as much things compared to the other children. I used to see them with lots of expensive bags, clothes and jewelry. To be honest I never really was interested in having all those things and I never really felt jealous. I was happy with all the things I had and I was always grateful that I actually had money in the first place. If I ever did feel such a way that I didn't have as much money as others, I would remind myself that some kids out there have nothing at all. I would normally feel bad when my parents would offer buying me things that were particularly expensive. That's why I feel so bad when Jumin buys me so many things that are top quality expensive things. I'm so lucky to be here with such a lovely person. Though it may not be what a lot of people think. I'm not here for his money, I'm here because I'm in love with him. I don't care one single bit and not even that; I don't want his money. All I want is to be with him every second that I have left of my life.
