The weeks had moved on and the buzz surrounding the trial had died down a little with both boys trying to grasp onto normality by filling their days with school and dance practice. The media hype following the trial had been overwhelming, with the headlines taking a dramatic turn supporting the poor couple and branding the fallen Mr Jeon a 'Homophobic bigot and fraudster'.
Jimin had been in touch with his parents who he had purposefully kept away from the trial, and in hindsight was so glad he did. They were delighted that justice had been served and were due to fly in that weekend in time for the end of year show. Jimin couldn't wait to show them his and Jungkooks apartment and they were going to be staying close by at a grand hotel. His mother had declined their invitation to board with them stating that last time she visited Seoul it had been during that nightmare, this time was an exciting vacation which required some 'alone time' for his father and herself much to Jimin's horror and laughter from his boyfriend.
The group of friends were hyped for their performance, this was the last time they would all be together in school as Namjoon, Jin and Yoongi were due to graduate, with just 1 more year left for the rest of them. Namjoon and Yoongi had produced and recorded Jungkook's song, with him singing and Jin and Tae taking on the harmonies. Hobi and Jimin had worked tirelessly on the dance with Jimin taking a mid part solo at the same time Jungkook would sing alone. Jimin's strength had returned and with help from Hobi and the school dance professor his dancing was even more beautiful in Jungkook's eyes.
The academy auditorium was packed to the rafters with students, teachers, friends, families and soul talent scouts. The acts back stage preparing costume and makeup, the group's concept being dark to light. Facing fears and hiding in the shade, then finally accepting yourself stepping into the light. The boys wore black suits, with coordinating dress shirts, each with a little twist showing their personality, Jungkook's suit was all white in comparison. Hobi and Jimin wore loose dancing clothes in silks and chiffons to accentuate their figures as they moved. Hobi wearing the black and Jimin matching his boyfriend in white. The boys were having hair and makeup done professionally, organised by Mr Yoo as congratulatory gift, and he was given front row honour with Jimin's parents and all the families of the other boys. To say he felt proud and indeed part of an extended family in that moment was an understatement.
There were 10 acts in total ranging from singers, dancers, soloists, groups and musicians. The group were due to go on last and had been added to the programme just in time to make it to print as no one expected Jimin to recover as quick as he did, his professor being tremendously proud of him. Jimin and Hobi were having their makeup and hair done seperately from the others as their makeup was to be more dramatic to enhance their costumes. Jimin had secretly re-died his hair that had been long overdue, it had grown out a lot whilst he had been in hospital and he hadn't paid it much thought during the trial, but now it shone silver grey with his long fringe flicked to the side and styled elegantly, he was a little nervous at what Jungkook would think. His makeup was flawless, smokey eyes to compliment his hair with eyeliner accentuating the curve of his eyes, his contacts a piercing grey. His lips had been glossed and appeared much thicker giving him a natural pout "Jesus Jimin, you look like sex on legs" stated Hobi excitedly "JK is gonna lose his shit tonight" he exclaimed to a laughing Jimin. Jimin took a long look at his reflection in the mirror, he felt beautiful, but not just in a physical sense, because he felt loved, he felt lucky and he felt alive. He'd known Jungkook almost a year and they'd been officially together for 10 months with a lifetime of hurdles thrown at them, this was finally their time.
Jungkook and the guys were just recieving their finishing touches, the music of the other acts in the background, it was almost time for them to go on stage and the excitement was palpable. Hobi came bounding into the room "Wow Hobi, you look great" they all exclaimed with Yoongi pulling him by the arm and sitting him on his lap appreciating his boyfriend. Suddenly Jungkook's mouth dropped as he looked up to see Jimin standing in the doorway dressed in white, the light behind him making him glow and look like an angel, his silver grey hair shining and the silk of his outfit skiming his body in a way that accentuated all the bits Jungkook loved most. The others turned to look, mirroring Jungkook's action as each of them took in the sight "Good God, I think i might be gay" said Tae dramatically as he thew himself on one knee in front of his best friend earning a slap to the back of the head from jungkook and a giggle from Jimin. Namjoon stood ushering the other boys out of the room "we'll give you two a few minutes alone" he smiled as he pulled Tae up from the floor "Stunning Jimin" he winked on his way out shooting Jungkook a thumbs up as they all left.
