Stigma Love's Algorithm [ A BTS x Reader Poly ]

Chapter 81: Under the Christmas Lights

"I know you don't always say it, but I know, Yoongi. I see it."

I don't speak. I just reach for him, pressing my forehead to his, closing my eyes.

He lets out a slow breath, his hands resting against my waist as I kiss him, slow and deep, pouring every ounce of love into the way I hold him.

And then-one last gift.

From her.

Y/N watches me with wide, expectant eyes as I unwrap the package, revealing a leather-bound journal with my name embossed on the cover.

"For your thoughts, ideas," she murmurs. "Or just... anything."

I run my fingers over the pages, inhaling deeply.

There's more-a high-end ergonomic keyboard, sleek and designed for long hours of work.

And then... a letter.

I unfold it, my breath hitching as I start to read.

"Yoongi, my first ever soulmate,"

"You are the reason I first believed in soulmates. The reason I believe in a love that lasts."

My throat tightens.

"You are my rock. My safe place. My forever."

"Thank you for coming into my life and making me the happiest woman alive."

I press my fist against my mouth, blinking rapidly.

I don't say anything. I can't.

I just reach for her, pulling her into my arms, pressing my face into her neck as I breathe her in.

"Jagiya," she whispers, fingers threading through my hair.

I press my lips to her collarbone, her shoulder, her temple. "I love you," I murmur, voice rough. "I love you so much."

She tilts her head back, and when our lips meet, it's everything.

Soft. Sweet. Forever.

Around us, the others watch, warmth radiating from their smiles.

Taehyung's POV

I think my heart might actually explode.

I'm practically vibrating with excitement, my arms wrapped tightly around my teddy bear as I watch Yoongi hyung hold Y/N noona like she's his whole world.

My chest feels so full, I can barely sit still.

This-this is what I love most about Christmas. Not just the presents, but this.

The way we love each other. The way we give pieces of our hearts wrapped in ribbons and warmth.

Yoongi hyung finally pulls away from Noona, his eyes still glassy, his hand resting on her knee.

And then, just as I open my mouth-

"Tae's turn!" Jin hyung announces with a knowing smile.

I squeal.

"Finally!" I shift onto my knees, practically bouncing in place.

"Okay, okay, okay-who first?"

Joonie hyung chuckles and nudges a package toward me. "I'll go."

I scramble to open it, fingers trembling with excitement as I tear the paper away.

Inside, a wooden box.
