'What are you on about?'

'We awe hawun a pawty tomowow.' Jungkook barely made any sense as his mouth were full, but unfortunately throughout the years I got used to it, so I understand him

'Come on, man. It's your wedding. You gotta choose.' Hoseok pushes

I don't think it's getting to me just yet that I'm marrying her. Marriage is not something I ever even thought of. Not one time. But now that I'm supposed to marry her, I feel like screaming.
I might have used the excuse, but I just want to be hers. Fully, completely hers.

'I'm leaving.' I am not dealing with their insanity. I do not care if they hang up hello kitty balloons around the house

'Come on, man. Where is the excitement?! You're gonna be a husband!' Jin yells after me as I'm walking away

I stopped in my tracks stunned at the word husband, but I gotta play it off. Turning towards them, I sigh deeply. 'Do I look like I know anything about colours?' I gesture at my clothing, proving my point. As much as she whines at my closet, she is right. It's all black in there.

'Good point.' They both suddenly agree, nodding at each other

'Just put both, whatever you're doing. I don't care.'

'We knew you were excited!' Hoseok grins

'He didn't even complain about the party.' Yoongi chimes in

'What's the point? Whatever they've decided to do it happening whether I complain or not. Couldn't care less.' I know what they're like. No point arguing. And I'm secretly kind of happy about it. Claiming her as mine is most definitely a cause for celebration.

'Mhm. I bet he just wants to marry her and kiss her like this.' Hoseok suddenly chucked himself at Jin, pretending he's gonna kiss him. I never heard Jin screech so loudly as he tried to get himself away from Hoseok

'This is enough insanity for one night.' I grimace at them. 'See you in the morning.'

'Night, night, groomie.' Yoongi waved with a grin, earning an eye roll in return. Bunch of kids I'm living with.

I called them kids, and then I practically ran to my room to see her. I didn't see her down there, so I guess she's in here.

Or not.

Her room.
I hurried there, hoping she would be there. And she sure was. Soundly asleep.

As fast as I ran in, I closed the door quietly. I don't want to wake her up.

For a moment, I got distracted by a big bag over the chair on my left. She has a dress. I'm so happy no one can see me right now. My heart might explode. She's gonna be in a dress.

My eyes darted back to her, watching her breathe in and out slowly, completely relaxed into the mattress.

Unable to stay away, I came to the bed, getting on it gently. I want to kiss her all over when I see her like this.

The hair that's falling all over the place still somehow manages to let her breathe, freeing her face. Her dolllike big eyes are closed, having those long lashes of hers almost touch her cheekbones. Her cute little nose scrunched a little in her sleep, possibly bring tickled by her hair. And those lips that I can't seem to stay away from, those are just barely, lightly parted as she's laying on her hand.

I pulled myself down a little, laying next to her. I love watching her sleep.

I never know when it's going to be the last time that I'll see her face, so I'm trying to savour every single second. She is truly breathtaking.

I scooted closer to her, wanting to feel her closer, but maybe I moved a bit too much and she jolted a little. Her tired eyes barely fluttered a little, and then she smiled at me.

'Jimin...' her voice was barely a whisper, but it was the most beautiful melody to my heart

'I'm here.' I got even closer, letting her snuggle into my chest. She loves laying in the crook of my neck, breathing in my scent. 
The tip of her nose brushed over the skin on my throat, and her fingers gently pulled on my shirt as if she's trying to get closer. She nuzzled close to me, almost molding into my chest. I am so happy she's asleep, but there is a big chance the thumping of my heart might wake her up.

'mmm.. Jimin...' her sweet voice filled the silence as she mumled my name

'What is it, baby?' I whispered just in case she's sleep-talking

'You make me happy.' she hugged me just a little tighter, taking another breath before she fell completely asleep

I didn't even have the chance to respond to her, not that I was able to as the little ball in my throat cut off my words. Leaning my head lower to hers, the tears I tried so hard to hold back came almost rushing. 

I haven't done a single thing in my miserable life to deserve this happiness. I haven't done a thing for her either, yet she loves me. All I've done is bring fear and death wherever I went, and I was still selfish enough to take her instead of letting her go. Every day I am afraid that I will get her killed and bring her pain. And now I've even gone so far as to marry her. 

Reaching slowly into my pocket, I pulled out a little grey, velvet box. If someone told me a year ago that I would be buying wedding rings, and for myself, I'd throw up. But here I am.

'I know that we can't really wear these around, but I wanted to have something to remind us that this is real.'

I'd say I'm whispering, but I am not even loud enough for that. I must seem like an absolute lunatic, talking to myself, smiling at a box.

Risking waking her up, my arms shielded her closely, holding her in my embrace as closely as possible. She only gripped me a bit tighter, humming a tiny bit as I left a kiss on her hair. I am never letting her go.

'I love you, Rain.'
