his expression softened. he walked towards me, wrapped his arms around my waist as my hands landed on his chest. he looked in my eyes and said something i never thought he would
"Jisung, i know its hard, i know those words were hard for you. and i'm so grateful that you tried so hard to say them, cause i love you so much it hurts. hurts to be around you every minute and not being able to call you mine. you are the most amazing person I've ever met, and i wouldn't want my soulmate to be anyone else" he said closing his eyes and placing his forehead on mine
he opened his eyes just to look into mine.
"Han Jisung. would you do me the honor of marrying me?"
i widened my eyes, wait what?!
"marry you?! but we just met 3 days ago!" i exclaimed as he stood up straight taking his forehead off mine.
"but we already know we're soulmates. so why waist time?" he said, i mean he kind of has a point. "but how will we tell the others?" i asked thinking of the rest of my group. "tell them the truth" i mean he has a point
"how about, instead of going ice skating.. we go ring shopping?" i asked soft, low key not sure I'm making the right decision.
he smiled the biggest smile I've ever seen him wear and just nodded.
i grabbed my things and we left to the closest jewelers. when we got there we walked in and the lady at the front counter just smiled at us "so what can i help you guys with today?" she asked and i looked at Minho
Fuck it
"we're here to buy wedding rings!" i said returning her smile without even realizing it. she thought for a moment before gesturing us over to another counter.
she took a key and was unlocking the glass cabinet in front of us before asking "so how long have you guys know each other?" i started to panic a little.
i looked at Minho, so he spoke instead. "3 days!" i slightly elbowed him, telling him that he wasn't supposed to say that.
instead of the lady judging us, the next thing she said really surprised me.
"you guys must've know the minute you met it was meant to be!" i let out a breathy giggle "yeah something like that" i responded.
"how did you guys meet?" she asked pulling out a box from the cabinet. "i was statue, and he kissed me" Minho exclaimed like it was the most normal thing in the world. she looked confused for second before smiling bigger then before.
"well I'm glad you finally found you're soulmate Minho"
i gave her a confused look "wait how do you know his name?" i asked "cause my great great great great grandmother saw what happened when he turned way back then. she couldn't stop the man and witch, so instead, all her family took care of his statue for all these years." she explained
"she made sure everyone knew the story of the unfortunate boy. everyone doubted if you even had a soulmate, or that you were tricked and just turned into a statue for the rest of forever" she said with sadness in her eyes.
she pulled out the rings to show us. they were beautiful!
"once i heard you're story Minho, i felt inspired to make these rings. and i saved them hoping that if you ever found the one, you'd come to my store"

"a still deer, representing Minho as a statue in the middle of the big forest that grew around him" i whispered not realizing it. i looked up at the women "they're perfect!" i said as me and Minho put them on. i pulled out my wallet
"how much?" i asked
"nothing, just take them, they were made for you guys. consider it a wedding present!" she smiled and i honestly felt so happy.
"thank you so much!" i reach my hand out to her "it was nice meeting you...?"
"Max"
"Jisung"
"its nice to meet you too Jisung!" she said reaching out her hand to shake mine. Minho slips his arm around my waist as my phone rings. i answer it after seeing it was Chan. "Woojin's cooking tonight, and you know how he always makes way to much food. so bring your friend, Minho was it? I'm inviting the rest of the boys as well!" i said okay and he hung up.
"we have dinner plans" i said turning to Minho, but low key blushing a bit cause of his hand around my waist.
"it was nice meeting you Max" Minho said as we both waved goodbye.
when we both got to our apartment building, our hands were interlocked as i knocked on Chan and Woojin's door.
Chan answered the door soon after i knocked, we walking in and apparently we were the last ones. so we ate. we sat there, eating and talking.
Seungmin was sitting next to Hyunjin, Chan next to Woojin, Felix next to Changbin, Jeongin was sitting on the floor in between Hyunjin's legs.
and me and Minho sat next to each other of course.
i couldn't help but feel like someone is staring at us the entire time. i looked over to see Chan squinting, i give him a confused look as the group went silent.
"do you guys have something to tell us?" he asked raising an eyebrow, then everyone turned their attention to me and Minho.
i continued to look confused "no?" i responded.
"how about the fact, you guys are wearing matching wedding rings?" Felix said. okay so apparently it wasn't that easy to hide something like this from 7 of your best friends
I smile awkwardly, but before I could answer, or dodge the question Minho answered.
"You're smart, you can put 2 and 2 together" he said taking another bite of food before Chan almost choked on his water
