Jae's lonely life seems stable and dull until he finds out his son has run away from his boyfriend to fulfill some mysterious plan that might break two people meant to be or bring two back together.
"Jeno has your posters on all walls in his room," said Chenle grinning when Jeno's cheeks became purple.
"Oh you're this..." Jaemin laughed awkwardly. "I mean Renjun's friend, nice to meet you."
"Um... can I p-p-possibly have..." Jeno took out a piece of paper with trembling hands. "Si-g-g-n-natu-r-re," he stuttered stretching a pen towards Jaemin.
"Oh sure," Jaemin sighed taking it writing a big - to Jeno - and his signature underneath.
"Here," he gave it back when Jeno nodded in a stiff way.
"So I need to go, yes, let's go," Renjun squeezed Jaemin's arm tighter.
Jeno just used the moment to escape into the garden followed by a very giggly Chenle and his girlfriend.
"He's so strange, why is he doing it?" asked Renjun when Jaemin just pulled him into a hug.
"Concentrate Junie, you have a mission to complete," whispered Jaemin kissing his cheek.
"You know it's so bad when your best friend is in love with your boyfriend and secretly hates you, but I can't do anything against the fact that I love you," Renjun was looking into Jaemin's cute eyes.
"Don't do anything against it as I love you equally much," he pecked his lips.
"Boys it's starting!" they heard Doyong so they let go of each other running to the garden. Jaemin stopped next to Mark, Taeil and grandpa when Renjun found his place at a bench next to the tent wall where the main part of the ceremony was supposed to take place. Taeyong was nearly bouncing on the tips of his toes from nervousness, but the music came and Renjun turned to see Jae walking down the aisle with a face as if he would wish to hide under the carpet and crawl to Taeyong's side.
Was it really here, the moment Jae has never imagined to happen, or was it a dream, he was looking at Renjun rather than Taeyong, as yes, Taeyong was way too beautiful, way too perfect, especially while standing there waiting for him to say yes. After so many years, seven million troubles, a super long silence, they had found a way back, all because of their amazing son, who had managed to grow up into such a lovely young man Jae admired more and more each day, he could even like Jaemin a little more today, as yes, Jaemin was taking care of Renjun making his baby the happiest.
He was rather thinking about them than the nervousness that was melting his head, making him sweat a lot, his heartbeat just a rush when he stopped right in front of the man who was supposed to give them the blessing. A sweat-wet hand finding his gave him electricity, like in high school, or even more when he looked up to meet Taeyong's deeply dark eyes.
"Volcano Jae," whispered Taeyong pulling him closer cuddling their noses together when the man on the podium coughed.
"After the ceremony sirs."
"Yes sure," Taeyong blushed moving a step back when Jae felt so excited, way more then when they have been shooting a video naked.
"I love you," he whispered when Taeyong said it back, then both faced the man repeating the vows.
"I do," said Taeyong squeezing his hand even more. "For better or worse... until our last breath..."
"I do," he said so calmingly looking into Taeyong's eyes only.
"The rings!" said the man and Jae saw Junie hurrying to them with a cushion that was trembling in his hands.
"You'fe doing gfeat," whispered Jae when Junie stopped next to them holding the rings out. Jae almost fainted for real when Taeyong put the ring on his finger, the cold metal marking a new chapter in his life. Jae the husband, husband of a man he has been more than a husband for years. He was struggling to find a way of the ring onto Taeyong's palm, yet he succeeded and Junie hurried back to his spot.
"You're husband and husband," said the man. "You can kiss," he muttered when Taeyong pulled Jae closer, as right as during their first kiss. Both watching each other for a longer while till Jae placed his hand on Taeyong's cheek bringing him even closer, connecting their lips in a deep peck, like a first kiss. The moment so fulfilling he couldn't just pull off holding Taeyong's lips in for a longer while. The guests responded with applause, when Jae turned towards Junie who was watching them with tears filled eyes, so he just gave his lovely son thumbs up.
Taeyong took his palm leading him down the aisle into the decorated garden and Jae realized he doesn't need much to be happy, just Taeyong by his side, just his Junie smiling, the others could come and go, but these tow were the foundations of his life.
Jae and Taeyong were the happiest, Renjun couldn't take his eyes off them. Not during the ceremony, not on the huge garden fest, where they were dancing in the lights, receiving wishes, talking to guests, posing to photos or just cuddling to each other looking like a freshly in love couple.
They were so happy this afternoon when he had given them the painting. It was standing on a honorary place now, the image of three hearts hugging, what was supposed to symbolize their family.
"Renjun!" he heard his name, so he looked up form the bench he was sitting at, as the excitement and nervousness had woken up some hidden pain, so he has just came here to take a breath and hope Jae and Taeyong will never notice. This night needed to be perfect for them.
The one who has spoken was Jeno, his face hurt and stubborn.
"Wanna say bye, I'll be leaving," he muttered not looking at him when Renjun felt even more pain inside.
"Jeno I... I really like you as much as I like Chenle, I don't want you to hate me because of Jaemin," he said when Jeno's face became even more cloudy.
"I know, but it will never change the fact that you're dating the man... yah... I want to become the Taeyong to my Jae," Jeno looked his fathers' way. "So we wil never be really good, I think we should just give this friendship up."
Renjun just opened his mouth then closed it again when Jeno nodded awkwardly before leaving through the dancing guests, disappearing into the night.
