Han:
What is going on here? Why is the front door open?
Y/N:
Nothing, Gyu, come, and Coups forget to close the door.
[Jeonghan nodded and sat with Y/N on the couch. Seungcheol looks at Jeonghan's face in suspicion and speaks.]
Cheol:
Do you know where Joshua is?
[He opens his eyes wide and looks toward Y/N then back at Seungcheol.]
Han:
No, I don't know. We've not been in contact with each other that often since last month.
[Seungcheol was going to speak when Dokyeom walked inside with Hoshi beside him.]
Y/N:
Now what are you doing here?
Dokyeom:
I called Gyu, but he didn't pick up, so I came here straight. Actually, I find Joshua.
Y/N:
Finally.
[Y/N said, rolling her eyes while folding her arms against her chest.]
Dokyeom:
He said he wasn't feeling well, so he went back home. That's why he didn't pick up my calls, and I thought he was with Han.
[Dokyeom said, and at this point, Y/N was on the edge of killing someone. She finally shouted in anger.]
Y/N:
Enough is enough. What's wrong with all of you? Huh? Why are you acting like some crazy bitches?
Han:
Y/N, calm down.
[Han tried to stop her by pulling her by her hand, but she freed her hand and looked back toward everyone. She scoffed and glared at everyone.]
Y/N:
Their feeling will get stronger. *scoffed*
[She said in whisper.]
Y/N:
Stronger, my foot.
Dokyeom:
What are you talking about?
[Dokyeom asks, surprised by Y/N's behavior.]
Y/N:
Just because there's a myth, you didn't let both of them meet each other. Forget about meeting; you don't even let them see each other's faces. Both of you claim that you love them and care for them.
[Y/N said, pointing her finger toward Seungcheol and Dokyeom.]
Y/N:
But can't you see? They're not happy for the past month because they didn't see each other. All of you guarded both of them 24/7 like they are criminals. If you leave them alone, even for a second, they might commit some crime.
[No one speaks; everyone's eyes are wide open in realization. They really go way too far with the myth.]
Y/N:
They're going to get married in one month, and you treat them like they're in jail. For fuck sake, can't you see their happiness is staying with each other and not staying far from each other? You make them separate from each other for a month just because of a myth, without thinking about how this will affect them.
How can you neglact their feelings to the point where they forgot how to smile?
[No one said anything; they were feeling guilty for what they did. Seungcheol and Dokyeom look at each other, then look back toward Jeonghan, who still didn't blurt out a word, still hanging his head low. Y/N pulls Jeonghan by his arm and push him in the middle.]
Y/N:
Look at his face. Did any of you see him smiling at all? Hoshi, you say you stay in this home with him the whole day. Dokyeom, you tell me. Did you see Joshua smile in the past month at all?
[No one said anything; why didn't they notice anything?]
Dokyeom:
Han, we're sorry for all these things; we really went too far. I really don't mean to make both of you sad.
Cheol:
I'm sorry, Han. I've know you since we were kids and still haven't noticed your sadness. I'm really sorry.
[Jeonghan just shakes his head and faintly smiles looking at them.]
Han:
It's okay. It's not your fault, so I'm not angry with you.
Hoshi:
Actually, it is my fault. I was the one who suggested this; if I knew it would turn out like this, I wouldn't have said a word that day.
[Jeonghan looked toward Hoshi, who was pouting. He walked toward him and petted his shoulder.]
Han:
I said it's fine. It's no one's fault, so calm down, everyone.
[Dokyeom smiles and claps in excitement.]
Dokyeom:
Then... I have something important to announce. You and Joshua can meet each other but during office hours only.
[Jeonghan opens his eyes wide in surprise.]
Han:
Really? I can meet him.
Dokyeom:
Yeah, but as long as you're in the office.
[Jeonghan excitedly hugged Y/N, and everyone began to laugh.]
.........................................................
[Y/N and Seungcheol go back to their home after they sort out everything. Seungcheol was sitting on the bed when Y/N walked and lay beside him while hugging him.]
Cheol:
You must be tired.
[Y/N just nodded, and Seungcheol hugged her back.]
Cheol:
How was the meeting between Jeonghan and Joshua?
Y/N:
It must be good; he was looking so happy when he entered the house.
[Y/N quickly get up, opening her eyes in shock.]
Y/N:
What I mean is that when Dokyeom decided to let them meet each other, he was quite happy.
[Seungcheol smiles and pinches his wife's cheeks. She looks so cute whenever she lies.]
Cheol:
I know you go there to let them meet each other. I know you, Y/N. We have known each other for so long. When you said you wanted to meet Han, I understand right away that you're planning something. I know you very well.
[Y/N roll her eyes and lay back with a pout.]
Y/N:
Don't tell anyone. I can't handle their drama.
[Seungcheol chuckled in response and shook his head while leaning his back on the bed.]
Y/N:
Why didn't you say anything there?
Cheol:
Because I didn't want my wife to get stressed over something so small.
[Y/N nod and close her eyes with a smile on her face.]
...........................................................
Next day:
Dokyeom:
Morning Han.
Han:
Morning.
[Jeonghan passes a smile to Dokyeom and starts to walk beside him.]
Dokyeom:
On your way to meeting your fiance after one month?
[Dokyeom smiles and Jeonghan nods in response.]
Dokyeom:
Good. Anyway, I have to go now. See you around!
[Jeonghan again nods and walks past Dokyeom when he looks at Jeonghan confused.]
Dokyeom:
What's with him? Did he hurt his feet or something?
[Dokyeom said, looking at Jeonghan's legs while lifting his eyebrow in confusion.]
Han:
Ah! Aish, it still hurts. Hong Jisoo, you're a monster.
[Jeonghan said, scrunching his nose in pain when he bumps into someone, falls on the ground on his buttocks, and shouts in pain.]
?:
Oh my god, I'm so sorry. Are you okay?
[The man helped Jeonghan get up from the ground; he nodded and started to slowly walk toward Joshua's office. He knocked on the office's door, when he didn't get a response, he walked inside and found an empty office. He was going to walk out disappointed.]
...................................................
Joshua:
I need the details about all the projects and their presenters. Inform them that I need a presentation. Tomorrow, first thing in the morning.
[Joshua said, walking toward his office, talking to his secretary. The man nods and leaves when Joshua enters his office, looking at his mobile, and sits on the chair without noticing that the chair isn't there. As soon as he bends down a little, his ass meets the ground, and he shouts in pain.]
Han:
Are you okay?
[Joshua was still whining in pain when someone spoke.]
Joshua:
Who the hell... huh?
[Joshua's eyes opened wide in response when he saw someone familiar in his office, someone he didn't expect.]
Joshua:
What are you doing here? What if someone saw you?
[Joshua said in panic while walking toward Jeonghan, whose smile turned into a frown.]
Han:
It seems like you're not happy to see me here. Do you want me to go back? Okay, then I'll leave.
[Jeonghan was going to turn his back toward Joshua when he stopped him by pulling him by his hand and placing a kiss on his lips.]
Joshua:
I didn't mean it like that. You know what I mean.
[Joshua said with a pout on his face after hugging Jeonghan. Jeonghan just smiled and hugged him back.]
Han:
I know I was just teasing you.
[Joshua playfuly smacks Jeonghan's butt, and he shout in pain.]
Joshua:
So how did you get here? Did no one see you?
[Jeonghan wrapped his arms around Joshua's neck and spoke.]
Han:
Dokyeom, give me permission to meet you during office hours.
[Joshua's eyes open wide when he hears it.]
Joshua:
Really? Then does that mean we can meet each other as long as we're in office?
Han:
Yeah.
Joshua:
But how?
[Jeonghan explains everything that happened last night.]
Joshua:
Well, at least I can see you in the office now. Eight hours a day. Good.
Han:
It sounds like you're addicted to something and need it for eight hours a day.
[Joshua giggled, and Jeonghan hugged him once again.]
Joshua:
You're my addiction. Whenever you appear, I forget all my worries; my pain and only happiness stay with me.
[Joshua sits on his chair and speaks.]
Joshua:
Right, I forgot to ask you. Are you feeling okay now? You don't feel sore anymore. Right?
[Joshua asked Jeonghan with concern visible on his face. Jeonghan smiles at Joshua cutely and speaks.]
Han:
Shua?
Joshua:
Hmm?
[He moves his mouth closer to Joshua's ear and speaks.]
Han:
I'm feeling... WORSE THAN YESTERDAY, MY BUTT HURTS LIKE HELL.
[Jeonghan shouted in Joshua's ear, and he fell to the ground again. Jeonghan giggled in response and helped him get up.]
Joshua:
What the fuck? You're evil. My ear.. Damn, I can't hear anything clear right now.
Han:
Serves you right. I haven't walk properly since yesterday, and everyone is giving me weird glares. Even Dokyeom looks at me weirdly.
[Jeonghan said it in a whisper, but loud enough for Joshua to hear. He pulled Jeonghan and made him sit on his lap.]
Joshua:
I'm sorry, but not sorry, and for your information, you were literally begging me to fuck you yesterday.
[Jeonghan's face turned red. He freed himself from Joshua's grip, sat on the other chair, and tried to avoid eye contact with Joshua; he was just shy. The other just giggled in response and moved his chair closer to Jeonghan, while looking at him.]
Han:
What are you looking at?
Joshua:
Nothing, just thinking about what I did to deserve such a beautiful person like you in my life.
[Jeonghan smiles and looks toward Joshua with a smile.]
Han:
I never thought that I would ever fall in love with anyone again, but you made it happen.
[Joshua smiles and holds Jeonghan's hand gently.]
Han:
Joshua?
Joshua:
Hmm?
[Joshua looks toward Jeonghan with a smile.]
Han:
Thank you for giving me a chance. Thank you for loving me till now. Thank you for waiting for me patiently back then. I'll always stay with you until my last breath.
[Joshua pulls Jeonghan closer to him by his chair, cupping his face in both hands and looking in his eyes lovingly.]
Joshua:
No matter how many times I'll get a chance to choose between you and all the happiness of this world. My answer will always be you. I love you.
[Joshua said before attaching their lips, kissing each other, moving their lips in sync, eyes closed, and hearts beating crazily when Joshua moved his lips down toward Jeonghan's neck while lifting him and made him sit on the table, and Jeonghan arched his head back to give access to Joshua. Joshua bites Jeonghan's sweet spot, and he just starts to move his fingers in Joshua's hair when a moan escapes from Jeonghan's mouth.]
Han:
Shua, stop it. Others might hear us.
Joshua:
Let them hear. Everyone needs to know who you belong to.
[With that said, Joshua bites Jeonghan's neck again, and this time Jeonghan moans louder than before.]
Han:
Huhhh... hmmm..... Shua, we can't do it here. What if someone comes inside?
Joshua:
Don't worry, I don't want anyone to see this beautiful body of yours. So we are not doing it here.
[Joshua licks on the now-purple from the red bruise on Jeonghan's neck and snuggles in his neck. Jeonghan made his breath steady and leaned his head on Joshua's shoulder, who was still standing.]
Joshua:
Babe?
[Jeonghan hummed in response, and Joshua spoke again.]
Joshua:
Who did you fall in love with before?
[Jeonghan's body got tensed with a sudden question, and Joshua noticed that. Joshua caresses Jeonghan's back and kisses his head.]
Joshua:
It's okay if you don't want to talk about it.
[Jeonghan lifted his head from Joshua's shoulder and looked into his eyes with a smile.]
Han:
He was someone who always thought of me as his younger brother.
[Joshua nods and hugs Jeonghan.]
FLASHBACK:
Jeonghan:
Cheol, don't worry. She'll definitely say yes.
Cheol:
But what if I mess it up? I never date anyone.
Han:
Come on, you're just going to confess. What are you worried about?
[Seungcheol was sweating; he was nervous today; he is officially going to confess to Y/N.]
Han:
Listen, you won't mess it up. I know that for sure. You've known her since childhood; you won't mess it up. You love her too much to mess it up.
[Jeonghan giggles, and Seungcheol sighs. He smiled after taking a deep breath and standing straight.]
Cheol:
Thanks! Han-a you're really like a brother to me. Thanks bro.
[Jeonghan smiles and shakes his head.]
Han:
Anytime. Now I have solved your problem, so please excuse me; I have to go somewhere.
Cheol:
Okay! Thanks again.
Han:
Bye!
[Jeonghan started to walk toward his car when Seungcheol shouted his name. Jeonghan stopped and turned his head to look back.]
Han:
What now?
Cheol:
I love you.
[Jeonghan stopped smiling and looked at Seungcheol, then his smile appeared again. He didn't say anything and started to walk. When he turned the corner, he quickly stood, leaning toward the wall and supporting himself when a tear dropped from his eyes.]
Han:
I wish you looked at me once.
End of Flashback...
...................................................................
AFTER FEW YEARS:
[Everyone settled into their lives. Y/N and Seungcheol work out their relationship and overcome every obstacle in their way. Jeonghan got his life back on track thanks to Joshua's effort and love for him. They decided to leave Korea to open another branch in the United States. Hoshi and Hyejin got married after a year of Jeonghan and Joshua's wedding.
As for Wonwoo and Mingyu, they also get married after some time. Mingyu always wanted to adopt a baby, so Wonwoo gave him a puppy as a gift on their anniversary instead. At first, they fought with each other regarding this matter, but soon Mingyu accepted things as they were. All of them go through a lot, but in the end, it was nothing in front of their love for each other. In life, there are lots of hardships, but facing them and moving forward without giving up is the key to living a peaceful and happy life.
?:
Wow, your love story was so beautiful. I also want to have a love story like yours, Dad.
Y/N:
Coups, stop telling the kids our love story.
[Seungcheol chuckled in response and put his son on his shoulder and walked toward Y/N, hugging her after giving a peck on her lips, while she giggled in response.]
Cheol:
I was just trying to brag about how great our love was.
Y/N:
Yeah, yeah, right. Let's go, kids; it's time for bed.
[Y/N said, holding her daughter from the ground, and his son ran into his room before she spoke again.]
Cheol:
Y/N?
Y/N:
What?
Cheol:
I'm hungry.
[Y/N look at Seungcheol in confusion.]
Y/N:
We just had dinner.
[Seungcheol just smirked and licked his lips while caressing Y/N's lips with his thumb. She opened her eyes wide when realization hit her. Her face flushed, she returned her gaze to her daughter, who had already fallen asleep in her arms.]
Y/n:
Children are still awake.
Cheol:
Say it then.
[Y/N look at her surroundings, avoiding eye contact with Seungcheol.]
Y/N:
Just go. I'll be there after they sleep.
[Seungcheol moves his lips closer to Y/N's ear and whispers before biting her earlobe.]
Cheol:
I'm waiting for you then.
[Y/N quickly took her daughter without looking back at Seungcheol. They're happy with the choice they made in the past; it makes their present and future beautiful. Sometimes the decision made in childhood really works out, and it makes everything beautiful.
