It was heavily raining in Paris, but I wanted to go outside anyways. Luckily Taehyung came with me, he didn't really like the idea of going out in the rain. I, for some reason, loved rain. I loved the sound of it, and it was so calming.
We got into the limousine that was parked right outside the hotel, and Taehyung and I were quick to cuddle up to each other the second we got into the vehicle. "Are we really going to get ice cream in this weather?" Taehyung asked me, while he had tied his hands in mine. "We don't have to, it is a bit cold." I said and rested my head on his shoulder. "Can we please get hot chocolate?" He pleaded, and I agreed.
..
"What can I get you?" The man in the coffee house asked me. "Two cups of hot chocolate." I said and smiled. The man later brought us two, full cups, and I payed.
We sat down at the second floor, in a sofa with a view over the beautiful city called Paris. "I want to meet your parents as well." I said and took a sip. "I wish you could, but they died when I was a child." He said, and my body stiffened. I put my cup on the coffee table, and got up to embrace him. "I am sorry, I didn't know." I said, but he just brushed it off. "It's fine, don't worry." He now smiled, and looked at me. "You got something there." He said while pointing at my mouth. Before I could do anything, he placed his finger on my lip, and wiped it away. He slowly leaned in closer, and gave me a kiss on my lip. "But Eun Mee?" He asked. "Yes?" I took another sip. "Please, please let me pay for your mother's surgery. I know things are looking hard for you, and I just want to help. I don't want you to loose her." He said with a serious tone.
I had to admit that it was hard. I had to work my ass off to afford paying for my own food, how could I pay for both the bills and all the treatments she was getting? "I can think about it." I answered and snuggled up to him.
"Do you want to tell me about you parents?" I asked, not sure of what the answer might be. I could feel Taehyung getting a bit tense, and he took a deep breath. "To make it short. They were kidnapped and killed when I was little, because of their wealth." He said, and it went quiet. How could I response? It was extreme, and the imagination of a little Taehyung crying was the worst thing. "I am sorry to hear that." I said and held his hand. "It's ok, don't worry."
He tried to lighten up, and smiled down at me. "I mean it, Mee. I have got you now, which makes me the happiest man in the entire world." He said, and kissed me.
God, I loved how it felt being near him.
..
Taehyung and I had been chilling out in the hotel room for a while, and I was getting a bit reckless. "Do you want to go for a walk?" I asked him. The rain had stopped pouring down, and the moon was out. The city was lit up by all the lights and I could feel it was calling my name from outside. "This late?" He asked and checked his clock.
It was around 10.00 pm, but I still wanted to go outside. "Please" I pleaded and pouted. "Awe, cutie" He said and pinched my cheek. I just continued until he finally agreed.
..
"It some how smells different at this hour." I said and smiled. "The air is so clean, and everything is so quiet." I let out and took a quick spin to see everything around me.
We walked up to an platform, and looked out on the Eiffel Tower. "Let me take a photo of you." I said and pulled up my phone to take a picture of Taehyung.

"You are so adorable." I said while looking at the picture of him. His response was to kiss my cheek, and to smile his rectangular smile. His beautiful, rectangular smile, that I loved so much.
I found myself telling myself that I loved everything about him. How couldn't I though? He was so beautiful in every single way.
"Eun Mee, are you okay?" He suddenly asked, and I finally got snapped back to reality. "Yeah, I was just thinking." I said, and he took a step closer. "Thinking about what?" His eyes sparkled and I felt as I could see all the stars in the universe in his eyes. "That I love you." I suddenly said.
My mind went completely blank. What did I just say? I could feel my fingers getting numb and my stomach started hurting.
So soon Eun Mee? Why did you tell him now? After just knowing him for a couple of months?
My body froze for some seconds, I was so nervous. I was looking at him in the eyes, and waited. I was waiting for a confirmation, a confirmation that he loved me too. Was I crazy for developing this sort of feeling so fast?
"I love you too." He assured me, not breaking the eye contact once. We both pulled each other in for a passionate kiss.
