Due to a mix up, Y/n's a roommate was going to be male. When she came to Seoul for university she chose to live in the beautiful apartment style dorms that was provided for the students. It was coed with two people per apartment. It was supposed to be two males or females per room but a mix on each floor. Somehow a mistake was made and Y/n was paired with a male. Unfortunately the rooms were all booked and she couldn't request a roommate change. She almost regretted refusing, her father's offer of buying her own apartment. Y/n wanted to be more social and experience living on campus. As long her roommate wasn't a pervert or overall trash, she was willing to make it work. With her black belt in mixed martial arts and judo she had no problem beating that ass; man or woman. Y/n had just finished packing her things when she heard someone call out
"Hello? Is anyone here? There was a mix up so  I'm sharing the room with a woman......"
"It's me. I am woman. Nice to meet you, my name is Y/n L/n"
Y/n introduced herself startling her new roommate.
"Oh your a foreigner!"
"And is that going to be an issue?" Y/n replied with a bit of attitude. Most Koreans she met were nice but there was always that one.
"NO! I'm mean no. I was just surprised that's all. You speak Korean like a native." He said nervously, hoping he didn't offend the girl. He didn't want to have an awkward living situation.
"Well I spent summers with my best friend's grandparents who were Korean and barely spoke English. I picked it up from them. Do you speak English?"
"Yea" 
"Good cuz I be switching back and forth from English to Korean, so imma need you to keep up. So What's you name?"
"Oh right... My name is Jang Dong Yoon and I'm a History major. What about you?"
"I'm in Computer Engineering and Software Design."
Y/n replied. "Let me help you with your things. Your letting all the A/C out and I'm not cooling the outside" Y/n immediately started bringing in Jang Dong Yoon's other bags into their apartment. Their dorm building had four floors and each floor had six suites. There was a communal lounge, gym, snack bar and dining hall that all the residents had access to. The apartment was very spacious with two large rooms on opposite side of the apartment, each with their own en-suite bathroom. They had a fully equipped kitchen with stainless steel appliances and breakfast area that seated four comfortably. There was also a living room with a large flat screen tv that was already connected to the school's video on demand network. This allowed students to watch their classes from home at any time if they were sick or missed a class. It was only available for speaking lectures but it came in handy when one did not want to attend an 8 am class. Dong Yoon found Y/n to be a great roommate and a really good friend. He had never meet a black girl before and Y/n's sweet and bubbly nature surprised him. She was a very straight forward and genuine person. He also loved her cooking and they rarely ate at the dining hall. He was surprised that Y/n being from an extremely wealthy family could cook so well. Most rich girls he knew couldn't boil water. Everything about Y/n fascinated him from her hair to her culture; Y/n was an absolute joy to be around and Dong Yoon was grateful for the mix up that brought her into his life. Dong Yoon had accepted that he fallen in love with Y/n and was content with the way things were, until he wasn't. It all started when he came home from class one afternoon to hear Y/n laughing. He loved hearing her laugh and started to smile as he walked into the living room and saw something that shook him. There was a man who was sitting way too close to Y/n and he was telling her something that could not have been that funny. He got even more pissed when he saw that it was none other than Kang Tae Oh. He is Y/n' a lab partner and he lives on their dorm floor as well. He has also been trying to spend more time with Y/n of late. Key word trying. When they first starting living together their dorm leader would always jokingly ask him where his "wife" was and visa versa when he saw Y/n. It started as a joke but people started to believe it and treated them like a real married couple even though they weren't. It was also a clever way to protect Y/n from malicious rumours because she was a unmarried woman who was living with an unmarried guy. It shouldn't matter but as modern as Korea was, a man and a woman who weren't married and living together was still looked down upon.
"Yeobo"
"Husband!"
Y/n replied happily when she heard his voice she came over to him to give him a hug. Dong Yoon took the opportunity to wrap his arm around Y/n and placed his hand right on her butt.
"Your hair products came in today. We can go pick them up and get some groceries. We have been living on takeout and cupcakes for a week."
He softly spoke in English. He knew Kang Tae Oh understood English. He inwardly smiled as he saw the jealousy in Kang Tae Oh's eyes.
"Yes! I can finally take my braids down. It's been a whole month and I want have my hair out. And I know, sorry about that. I'm almost done with my project so I will have time to cook again."
Y/n turned to Kang Tae Oh
"We can finish testing the prototype tomorrow. We should have enough data to write up the final report. I have to get ready and go out but I will see you in class."
"Ok Noona. I will see you tomorrow. And we should go out for drinks to celebrate later" Tae Oh said with a smile that didn't quite reach his eyes.
"Oh class party! We have worked hard and we definitely deserve a drink." Y/n laughed as she went to her room to get ready. She didn't seem aware of the tension between her "husband" and her lab partner. As Tae Oh was leaving Dong Yoon who was standing by the door said "You know, as your hyung I feel like I should advise you on life. You shouldn't uselessly pine over a married woman. Especially when you have a girlfriend." Dong Yoon was all too happy to slam the door in the younger man's face. He saw the lust and longing in Tae Oh's eyes every time he looked at y/n and he hated it because he himself looked at Y/n that way. Y/n always joked about them 'playing house' but for Dong Yoon it was real. It didn't help that after a drunken night two years Y/n and him have been kissing and cuddling like a real couple. Neither of them had acknowledged the change in their relationship, but as the school year was ending he knew they needed to talk.
Y/n noticed that Dong Yoon had been quiet ever since he came back home that afternoon. She knew he didn't like Kang Tae Oh and honestly neither did she. Kang Tae Oh presented himself as a loving son and a loyal friend but Y/n knew better. Tae Oh was not who he presented himself to be. He liked seducing foreign women and bragging about it with his friends. He even got some White girl pregnant a year ago and his girlfriend's family covered up the scandal. She had a reliable source tell her that the girl was forced to have an abortion and harassed until she eventually dropped out of school and returned to the US. Kang Tae Oh was definition of a trash human being. For some reason he has become obsessed with her. He even managed to have her initial lab partner drop her so that he could be her partner. Her being 'married' has only limited Kang Tae Oh but she knew it wouldn't hold him off for long. The truth was she was scared and she didn't know what to do. Y/n was still thinking about her dilemma when she noticed that Dong Yoon was not eating his food.
"Why aren't you eating? Was it too spicy?"
Y/n worried as she rushed dinner a bit when they came back from the post office.
"No its fine. It's really good actually. I loved the meal. It's just that we need to talk. This is our last semester and ......... we.... well, I need to know what we are going to do about us."
He was serious as he spoke but he was playing with his fingers. Something he only did when he was very nervous.
"Well we agreed that when the school year was up we would 'divorce' although technically we aren't legally married so I guess we just breakup." Y/n smiled awkwardly because the truth was she was in love with Dong Yoon.
"That's the thing. I don't want a fake divorce. I want us to get married for real. And no I'm not saying that just because I'm comfortable with you. The truth is... I have never meet a woman like you. Being half Black American, half Ghanaian you introduced me to a new culture, language and food. I loved learning new things about you but I have come to realize I also just love you." He finished softly. He looked so vulnerable and hopeful that it almost hurt Y/n.
"Are you sure that you want this? Because when we get married there is no going back. It will be till death do us part."
It took a moment but Dong Yoon realized that Y/n said when not if and he rushed to Y/n and picked her up. Y/n began squealing in happiness as he twirled her around. He put her down and said
"I have something for you"
he pulled out a small black box and got down on one knee
"Y/n m/n L/n will you do me the honour of marrying me for real?"
Y/n gasped in surprise
"When....... when did you get that?"
"Two years ago. I have been thinking about this for a long time but I was scared that you didn't feel the same. I don't want to lose you, but I knew that if I didn't claim you I would lose you anyways."
With tears gently sliding down Y/n's face she nodded and said "Yes, yes I will marry you. And I just wanted to say that I love you too. I was scared that you wanted to end things and with Tae Oh's annoying self I was starting to feel stressed."
Dong Yoon slipped the ring on her finger and pulled Y/n to him so that he could kiss her. It wasn't their first time but it felt different now that they were secure in each other's feelings.
"Don't worry about him with his short kpop idol looking ass. Since he wanna act like a dog, I will make sure that his girlfriend's family tightens his leash. With his shrimp dick ass."
Y/n burst out laughing. "My guy, where did you learn all of that?"
"You"
He smiled and kissed her nose knowing he was able to make her laugh. He vowed that he would do everything in his power to bring as much joy to Y/n's life as she has brought to him.
