26

I woke up with a headache and the first thing I noticed was a large bouquet of red roses, and their scent was making the whole atmosphere so pleasant. I smiled as I reached for it.

"Thanks Tae..." I said in a sleepy voice.

"Ouch" another voice responded.

Exactly. Ouch.

I mentally winced too when I saw Jimin's face appear behind the bouquet.

"Jimin what are you doing here?! You should be in the hospital!!!" I sat up and put the flowers to a side.

"They said I was fine, not that I needed any confirmation" he stood up and lifted up his shirt a little.

"Nope. Jimin, sit down it's not that MV" I waved a hand at him.

"Right, but my abs are delicious, no?"

"Jimin, why are you here??"

"I wanted to take you out, show you the real charm of Paris"

"I thought we weren't on talking terms anymore?"

"Come on, don't be a bitch. That's all in the past. Let's go out and have fun. We'll go eat at this amazing Korean restaurant that serves this mind blowing bulgogi..."

My mouth started watering. Tell me more...

"And then we can go sight seeing and make fun of the naked statues and throw pebbles at the pigeons and then we'll go cycling..."

"Jimin, can you even walk?"

"I can do a lot of things. Want me to show you?" He said as he came nearer and leaned in, with his face so close to mine I could almost feel the heat from his lips while his hand rested so close to my thigh.

"Jimin. I would appreciate it if you do not violate my girlfriend's personal space" I heard another deep voice and looked at the doorway to find Taehyung in his black sweatpants and matching hoodie. He looked pissed.

Jimin stood up straight, rubbing his temple and looking annoyed.

"Does your mom know you have a girlfriend?" He asked Taehyung and then turned to me "Have you met his mom?"

"Jimin," I could sense a warning in Taehyung's tone.

"I'm just here to show my friend around and have some fun in a city she visited for the first time, instead of dragging her around fashion shows in trash bag dresses"

"You can spare yourself the trouble. I'm going to take her to a museum. And then we'll be headed to an auction to bid for a painting for our home" Taehyung said with an expressionless face.

"Your home?" Jimin laughed "Your home is Kim's Palace. The largest private property in South Korea. Are you really taking her there?"

I looked at Taehyung and he looked so angry as if was about to attack Jimin. His eyes turned a little soft as he looked at me.

"If you're too tired or unwell, you don't have to come..." he said in a grim voice.

"I'm... I'm okay, never been better. I'll come with you" I scooted out of the bed.

"Good," he came nearer, pulled me into himself as his hands decided to roam some illegal parts of me while he kissed me so deep I thought he was going to suck out my soul. I was breathless when he pulled away and smiled, it had felt so good but the thought that he was marking his territory in front of Jimin made me a little angry.

To add more to it, he casually picked up the flowers on the bed and threw them in a trash can on his way out.

"Taehyung!!" I shouted after him but he had already gone out.

I looked at the beautiful flowers and then at Jimin.

"I'm sorry..." I murmured "He's so childish sometimes"

"It's okay. I'll always be here for you. You know that right?" Jimin held out a hand to touch my face but I pulled away.

"I better get ready soon. There's... uh... there's this whole team that gets me into clothes and stuff" I chuckled nervously because Jimin looked incredibly sad.  I could tell from his eyes how hurt he felt.

"Yeah... Yeah sure, uh, go ahead. Make Paris swoon over you" he went back a few steps with hands in his pockets.

"B-bye..." I said feeling terribly guilty.

He nodded and left.

I started towards the wardrobe where five beautiful dresses were displayed on torso mannequins with a small message on a post it attached to one.

"Choose one of these and imagine me rolling my eyes.

—Sunhee"

I picked up the middle one. It was a black satin dress. There were matching shoes and a silver diamond set. I changed into the dress and as soon as I came out of the changing room, I found myself facing Monty and Reese.

"Look gurl, Sunhee is rich and has her own fashion line, Our Gucci bags aren't paying for themselves so just get into that seat. Hustle hustle" Reese said and then while working on my hair and face, kept asking me to not let go of them.

After I was ready, I left for the exit. Taehyung was waiting in the lobby and he stood up as he saw me. He smiled and held out a hand as I went down the last few stairs.

I looked at him with a frown.

"I can't believe you threw the roses away"

He linked his arm with mine without a word and accompanied me to the car.

Once inside the car he turned to me.

"Y/n. There are... some issues and they aren't your fault at all, but because of them I behave the way I do. And if you want me to apologise, I will. But they will happen, again and again. There's nothing really I can do about them. If I could change for you I would , but I can't" he said.

"W-what do you mean?" I asked. I was having a feeling that this wasn't just connected to the recent event.

He just smiled a little and kissed my forehead.

"Taehyung, I asked you something?"

"I think I just swallowed some foundation"

He scrunched up his nose and I giggled, hitting his arm playfully, forgetting everything in the world but him. Or at least trying to.

We were welcomed at what appeared to be the entrance of a museum where Taehyung showed me around and explained so many artefacts and their history to me.

Then we went to the other portion of the museum where an art exhibition was taking place.

Now I'll be honest, I could understand deep poetry but understanding deep paintings wasn't my thing. Taehyung however, held my hand and we went through the exhibition. He explained the meaning of the most interesting paintings in the most interesting way and I couldn't take my eyes off that handsome, intelligent and must I say very well dressed man.

It sort of washed away the misery of missing on a nice warm Korean meal.

"This is the painting we're bidding on" He stood in front of a painting. It was something like a lot of circles and shadows but Taehyung explained that they were two doves on a roof.

"For your new home?"

"For our new home" he turned me towards himself as I was trying to process his words "Doves represent eternal love. I want you to move in with me permanently, I should have asked you after showing you our home first but... I changed my mind. I want to ask you right away, right here. There's nothing that can make my home more beautiful than your smile. So, Will you please give me the most beautiful and happiest home on earth, my love?"

He had asked me to permanently move in with him.

He had said he wanted a home with me.

But... which home?

The answer should have been easy only if Jimin hadn't piped in unnecessarily. Besides, I didn't know the location of the home he was talking about and how it could go with my Med school routine. There were too many questions, too many doubts.

But I knew one thing for sure, Taehyung would work everything out. For now, I just wanted to see that beautiful, heartwarming smile of his.

"O-Okay..." I nodded.
