Shin-hye's P.O.V:

"Do they look okay now?" I adjusted the fairy lights around the window shield then turned around raising a brow at my brother that was busy texting.
He looked up from his phone and nodded. "They look amazing." he assured as he turned the switch on and the whole living room lit up. I smiled in satisfaction clapping my hands excitedly.

"Are they here yet?" I asked as I made my way to grab the Christmas trees decoration and handed them to kookie so he could carry on with decorating. We decided to go out for two days as a group vacation, we had a vacation at school and it came up as the perfect idea. We went back and forth on places that are suitable but Taehyung ended suggesting we go to his place.

He said it is a large house in Gangnam-GU that had enough rooms for all of us. After struggling to convince my parents, mum ended up convinced and had to talk to dad. She told him that we really needed a small vacation before our exams and the play's semi-finals that were in 3 days' time.
I felt really better after telling her what Taehyung's mum did. She went angry and even wanted to talk to her, to show her that money isn't what makes us who we are. She even went against me being with him for a second.

I spent the entire time pleading her not to tell dad a thing because I didn't want to be the reason behind him leaving his job and mostly because he would get really sad that I kept this from him for so long. I planned on telling everything when I'm back. She said she'd only let it go for now and that we needed to talk to dad about everything from the start.

"Suga hyung said they'll be here in 10 minutes." kookie shouted and I quickly ran to my room to check that I had everything I needed packed and ready.
Our parents decided to visit Jimin's parents and I was so happy for them because it's been really long since they've taken a break and had fun. They even took chubby along.

I quickly wore my light jacket judging by the fact that the weather wasn't really bad and let my hair loose with a black beanie that had 'You are special' written on top. I took a quick glance at the mirror and smiled in satisfaction. The black skirt was perfect with my oversized beige jacket that IU helped pick for me yesterday. I grabbed my phone and hurried downstairs.

My brother wasn't there and I looked out of the window to find two cars. Suga's Audi and Tae's Range rover. As if on time, my phone beeped with a text from kookie.

We're in the cars waiting for u.

I quickly opened the door with my bag slung over my shoulder and was met by Taehyung coming my way. I closed the door shut and smiled meeting him halfway.
Two weeks have passed since we've went back together. It's funny how you don't realize how bad you've missed a person until you have them back in your life. We went out to our favorite spot, the river, and talked about everything. He helped me in my dance routines and I enjoyed watching him play the guitar and sing. He was busy organizing his studies and work with his brother Namjoon especially know that Namjoon oppa's wedding was coming up.

"Sunshine." he smiled as hugged me placing a soft kiss on my hair.
"You look beautiful" he spoke into my hair and I blushed as I hugged him around the waist burying my face in his chest.
"You look really beautiful too" He really did in the oversized black dress shirt with its long sleeves and his yellow Gucci eye glasses. A loud horn interrupted our moment and we looked up to see my brother throwing glares. He was not happy that we were back together, in fact he insisted I was bound to get hurt again but everyone deserved a chance and I was willing to take the risk.
"I need to talk to him later. Gaja." he sighed linking his hand through mine.
