“Are you the groom?” Minho laughed as he asked Kwon that day. “Why are you nervous?”

Everyone was at their festive mood. Today they are celebrating Minho and Hye Min’s wedding. The 2AM members are currently at the ceremonial hall while waiting for the bride and the BEG members.

“Maybe he is imagining that this is his wedding. Yah, Kwon ah –“ Seulong began to tease 2AM’s leader. Kwon just looked at him badly.

“Relax. Isn’t it weird that I’m the one who is about to marry but you seem to be feeling that more than me?” Minho chuckled.

Kwon ignored their remarks and looked out. Where are they? He thought.

******************************

“Yah! I can’t believe that this would happen, of all days!” JeA exclaimed. “We are in the middle of nowhere!”

“Calm down unnie, we are just blocks away from the church.” Hye Min said calmly.

“How could you act that way? It’s your wedding Min-ah! You are going to be late.” JeA reprimanded her cousin.

“Unnie~ you are acting like a mother.” Ga-in said; Hye Min high-fived her.

“Yah, won’t you two help me?” JeA asked Miryo and Narsha who was busy chatting, they looked at her blankly.

JeA sighed and started to dial.

******************************

“Congrats on your wedding”

Minho looked at the direction of the voice. “Auntie, glad you could make it.” The 2AM members looked at the person. They were surprised that she looked like the older version of Ga-in.

“Guys, I would like you to meet Ga-in’s mom.” Minho introduced them.

Everyone smiled at her, Kwon was equally nervous. Crap, I am not prepared to meet her mother. Where the hell is she? Kwon thought.

Ga-in’s mom smiled at them and patted Minho’s back. “Nice to meet you” she told them then she turned to the groom and said, “Where are they? JeA’s mom is freaking out right now.”

Minho chuckled. “I think they are on their way”

Ga-in’s mom looked at the AM members “Aigoo~ Why didn’t you tell me Minho ah, that these are the 2AM boys?” she smiled at them warmly.

Minho laughed and motioned the shy AM members forward.

Seulong was the first to break the awkward silence. “How are you auntie?” He said as he bowed in respect.

Ga-in’s mom smiled “How are you Seulong-sshi? How is your stomach?” she said and she laughed.

How does she know Seulong-hyung? Kwon thought.

Minho laughed and looked at the other AM members who was wondering why Seulong knew Ga-in’s mom. “I remember that incident…”

“Hyung~~~” Seulong said, face red with embarrassment.

“The day I got to know Seulong, he was hosting an event together with Taec and Ga-in. That night, we ate a lot in celebration and Seulong got an upset stomach – “ Minho said but he could not continue due to his laughter.

“Hyung~~”

“Well, Ga-in and Minho together with Taec took him at our house since the event was at our hometown.” Ga-in’s mom laughed.

“Auntie~~” Seulong continued to say, red from embarrassment. Jinwoon and Changmin laughed.

Ga-in’s mom looked over at where Kwon was standing and said, “Jo Seobang~ I wonder why you are too quiet?” Much to everyone’s surprise.

“Minho, JeA just called. Their car broke down a few blocks away from here.” JeA’s mom said as she rushed in.

Kwon was getting worried and was about to fetch them when his phone rang.

******************************

“Where are you yeobo?” Kwon instantly asked.

“Apparently we are stuck a few blocks away from here.” Ga-in said. “Yeobo~~” she started to whine when Narsha threw her a rosebud.

“Yah! If you called Jo-seobang just to be lovey dovey with him…” Narsha said irritated.

“Unnie~!” Ga-in said as she looked and saw Narsha gawking back at her.

“Where are you yeobo? I’ll come and fetch you.” Kwon said.

“Please pass the phone to Seulong…” Ga-in said.

“But---“ Kwon said protesting.

“Kwon, please pass the phone to Seulong.” She said quickly.

“…”

“Yah! What did you tell Kwon-ah? He gave me his phone irritated.” Seulong said.

“Seulong-ah! We’re stuck a few blocks away from there. Please ask Changmin oppa to accompany you please?” Ga-in said, pleading.

“Yah…why don’t you ask your boyfriend here?” Seulong said.

“Yah, just do what I say…” Ga-in said irritated.

“Yah, if you weren’t my friend I would ignore you big time…” Seulong said.

“Just hurry up!”

******************************

“Now, now Kwon-ah, why the sullen face?” Minho asked him as soon as they took their places in the ceremonial hall.

“I can’t believe that Ga-in noona wanted Seulong-hyung and Changmin-hyung to fetch her and not me.” Kwon said, irritated. “Why can’t she rely on me?”

Minho patted his back and said to him sympathetically, “I’m sure she had a good reason Kwon-ah. Don’t think too much.”

Her reason better be good. Kwon thought.

“Changmin-hyung just called and told me that they are now here.” Jinwoon suddenly told them.

Minho looked at Kwon who still looked like he was holding a grudge against the fact that Ga-in didn’t rely on him.

The organ began to play signaling that it was time for the wedding ceremony. Everyone looked at the door behind them as the flower girls began to take their cue. The girls began to shower the aisle with rose petals. Kwon looked at Minho and saw him smiling brightly. I guess I should not ruin the moment for hyung. Kwon thought and smiled. He looked at the bridal entourage and saw that Narsha and Miryo were up as bridesmaids. They looked stunning with their cream gowns. They were walking down the aisle with a smile plastered on their faces.

JeA came in as the first maid of honor to walk down the aisle. She was wearing a different style cream gown; her hair had been twisted with flowers. She looked amazing as she walked down the aisle. Kwon looked back at Minho who was obviously anxious to see his bride. When I get married later on in the future, will I ever be this way? Kwon thought as he chuckled. Seulong, who was beside him, tapped his shoulder. He followed his hyung’s gaze and saw the most beautiful creature to walk down the aisle, his anger suddenly subsided.

******************************

Why am I feeling too nervous? It’s not like this is my wedding right? Ga-in asked herself.

“Ga-in ah you’re up.” The wedding coordinator said.

She walked down the aisle nervously. I bet Kwonnie’s angry at me for not relying on him. But I had a reason, she thought. She looked at the place where her Minho oppa and the AM members is at, and looked at Kwon who had this shocked look in his face. She warmly smiled at him and took her place beside JeA.

******************************

She’s so beautiful. Was Kwon could ever think about the moment he saw Ga-in walking down the aisle. It seemed like no one was in the room and it was just the two of them present. She was wearing an ethereal gown which was similar to JeA, indicating that she was also a maid of honor. But even though, to him, she was the most beautiful person in the room.

Seulong tapped Kwon, chuckling and said to his love-struck dongsaeng, “Bet you couldn’t take your eyes off Ga-in right?”

Kwon just looked at his hyung shyly and went to glance at Ga-in. To his surprise, she was looking at him and smiling. Kwon winked at her and she looked away, face reddening.

The bride came in next, she was smiling brightly and the guests applauded in excitement. Kwon couldn’t help but look at Ga-in, she was applauding at the bride’s entrance, smiling brightly. Ga-in caught his eye and he looked away.

Her phone beeped in a message: “Yah, why didn’t you want me to fetch you a while ago? Am I that unreliable?”

She replied: “Don’t think that way; I had a reason Kwon-ah. I didn’t want you to meet me in that state.” I wanted to take your breath away as I walk down the aisle, she thought, face reddening.

He replied back: “Well, I don’t care anymore because you look beautiful today, yeobo. ^^”

She looked across the room and caught his eye. He looked at her and smiled warmly.

******************************

“The ceremony was beautiful.” Narsha said later that day. All of the guests and the newly married couple were at the reception area at Blue Paradise.

“Yeah.” Ga-in said.

“Now let’s all welcome 2AM to sing to our newly wedded couple!” the wedding MC said. Everyone clapped.

The song started to play and much to Ga-in’s surprise it was the song “Proposal”

“Great choice!” JeA said and BEG’s youngest just smiled, she remembered when the AM members, minus Changmin sang this to her when she visited their dorm for the first time.

“This is for the bride, a song that clearly expresses what Minho hyung is feeling right now.” Kwon said.

Ga-in couldn’t help but smile as she the AM members began singing. They really are talented. She thought.

“Their voices really are angelic, it makes my heart melt.” Narsha suddenly said and everyone agreed.

(Changmin)

As I said to only wait for me

I turned away for a long time

(Seulong + Jinwoon)

Saying that if you just wait for a little more that day would come

Oh~ someday

(All)

Even though I knew

(Seulong)

What you wanted to hear

(All)

And how much of a long time

(Seulong)

You've been waiting

(All)

I'm just now saying it...

You don't have to cry

(Changmin)

Don't cry

(All)

Hold up your head and smile now

I will make you smile

(Kwon)

I will only give you happiness as I stay by your side

Forever

(All)

Don't be afraid, everything will go well

(Jinwoon)

Thank you, You who waited for this kind of me.

My love

It's something that I wanted to say first before I'm sorry

(All)

The words that I wanted

(Seulong)

To only give to you

(All)

In the end I didn't even say

(Seulong)

Oh~ In the end I didn't even say

(All)

Marry me

Miryo patted Narsha who in turn got JeA’s attention. They pointed at Ga-in who was listening to the performance dreamily.

“Yah, Ga-in ah, is it fun to show your single unnies how happy you are?” Narsha said teasing BEG’s maknae who in turn blushed.

(All)

You don't have to cry

(Changmin)

Don't cry

(All)

Hold up your head and smile now

I will make you smile

(Seulong)

Yes, I will

(Kwon)

I will only give you happiness as I stay by your side

Forever

(All)

Don't be afraid, everything will go well

(Kwon + Changmin)

Because I know of your tears from waiting

(Changmin)

I'll give back

(Seulong)

Your love now

They really have great voices, Ga-in thought. They’ve come a long way. She was smiling to herself when Kwon caught her eye. He smiled at her lovingly as they continued their song.

(All)

You don't have to cry

(Changmin)

Don't cry

(All)

Hold up your head and smile now

I will make you smile

Kwon locked eyes with Ga-in as he sang the last line.

(Kwon)

I will only give you happiness as I stay by your side

Forever

The moment Kwon finished his line, he smiled at Ga-in and winked at her; she was shocked that she looked away blushing. Yah Kwon-ah. She thought. 2AM took their bow as the audience applauded loudly.

Ga-in looked back at her unnies who were gazing at her teasingly, eyebrows raised.

Crap , they saw that? Ga-in thought, embarrassed.

“Yah, Ga-in ah. How dare you and Kwon publicly show everyone your love? How about your poor single unnies?” Narsha said teasing their maknae.

“Unnie~~” BEG’s maknae started.

“And because of that, you need to buy us dinner sometime.” Miryo said and everyone agreed. “To those flying solo.” She added.

“Unnie, it wasn’t my fault, that stupid Jo Kwon was---“

“What did I do?” Kwon said from behind her and she was surprised. Everyone turned and saw the AM members approaching their table. Kwon sat beside Ga-in and held her hand. He smiled at her, making her look away in embarrassment.

“Yah, the both of you. Is it necessary to be all lovey-dovey in front of us?” Seulong said complaining. JeA agreed and they high-fived each other.

“I’m hungry…” Ga-in suddenly said.

“I’ll get you something…” Kwon said, he stood up as Ga-in looked at him, smiling.

******************************

Ah, so delicious. Kwon thought as he approached the buffet table. He got Ga-in’s favorite salmon dish.

“Unnie, I’ll get one for you…” someone behind him suddenly said. Kwon turned around to get drinks when he almost dropped the dish.

“Watch it—“ he said.

“I’m sorry…” the girl said, bowing. When she looked up, she was surprised and added. “Kwon-oppa…”

“Ah—it’s you…” Kwon suddenly said. “Wow, isn’t it a small world! If I’m not mistaken, you are the girl I almost ran into right?” he said surprised at the coincidence.

“Good memory!” she said, laughing.

“So why are you here? Do you know the bride?” he asked her, curiously.

“Yes, actually no… my cousin knows her. She’s her room-mate back at university.” She said.

“Rin ah, what took you so long?” the girl’s cousin said as she approached them.

“Oppa meet my cousin Mina…” she said as she introduced the two of them.

“Omo~ Kwon ah. You were great out there…” Mina complimented him.

“Thanks…” he said, shyly.

“Okay, let’s go unnie…” the girl said as she pushed her cousin away. “Sorry oppa, my cousin is just a fan of 2AM.”

Kwon laughed and asked, “Wait a minute, what’s your name by the way?”

“It’s Chae Rin. Nice meeting you too.” Chae Rin said as she walked away with her cousin.

Chae Rin. He thought.

******************************

“What took you so long?” Ga-in complained as Kwon walked back to their table. “I’m hungry.”

“I’m sorry yeobo~~” he said with aegyo.

“Well, whatever.” She said as she took the plate from his hands and began to eat quietly.

“Next up, we would like to ask Narsha from BEG to sing for the newlyweds’ first dance as husband and wife” The MC said.

“I guess it’s my turn…” Narsha said as she got on stage. “Minho, Hye Min I hope you enjoy this.”

“….”

“Why are you so quiet, yeobo?” Kwon whispered to Ga-in, who was still enjoying her meal in peace.

Ga-in looked around their table and saw that the other AM and BEG members were immersed in Narsha’s performance.

“Well?” he asked.

Ah, this is so irritating. She thought. Why am I suddenly like this?

There’s no way around it

I can’t hide my heart

You are so beautiful

“Yeobo, why are you so quiet? Have I done something wrong?” he said as he held her hand. “Please don’t be like this. I don’t like it when you shut me out like before…”

Ga-in looked at Kwon blankly which made him worry more. When did it become like this? Ga-in asked herself.

I thought I never gonna fall in love

But, I’m in love

Cause I wanna love you baby

Truthfully from the first time I met you

Somewhere inside my heart

You crushed like a strong wave.

“Who is the girl you were talking to, a while ago?” she said, quietly.

He looked at her blankly. “What did you say?”

“Never mind.” She said looking away, embarrassed.

“Did I hear it right? Are you jealous?” he asked her smirking.

You gotta believe me

Make you never gonna leave me

I won’t make you promises

I will just show it to you

“Yah!” she exclaimed, and looked around the table. Fortunately, the other members were still watching the newlyweds’ first dance and Narsha’s performance. “I said never mind, let’s drop the subject, okay?” she said as she continued eating.

He smiled at her, she looked at him irritated.

“Yah, Kwon-ah why are you smiling like you won the lottery?” she said, obviously irritated.

He took her hand and linked it with his. “Yeobo, you don’t have to worry. I was just talking to her casually. Don’t worry, I’m yours.” He said smiling as she tried to pull away from him.

“Yah, don’t act too confident.” She said, embarrassed.

I’m in love with you baby

I fall in love, there’s no way around it

“I love you.” he said looking into her eyes “Always remember that.” She touched his cheek and smiled at him warmly.

As Narsha finished her performance, everyone applauded at the newly-wedded couple. But there was a certain couple who had the world all to themselves.

Sometimes I can’t think how we became this way Kwon-ah, she thought as she leaned on his shoulder.

Author’s Note:

Whew, that was a long chapter. There were too many ideas coming in one after another for this chapter that I organized it. Sorry if this took so long. I dedicated this chapter for a festive moment: Minho’s wedding. And yeah, another character is introduced: Chae Rin (I used CL’s [2NE1’s leader] real name and no, this is isn’t her, she’s just my bias.. LOL~). Who is she? Please anticipate the next chapters. ^^

We can see Ga-in’s jealousy, how cute right? Hehe. \\(^6^)//

The songs I used are: “I’m in love” by Narsha and “Proposal” by 2AM. Both my favorite songs, actually while I was writing this chapter I was listening to both songs repeatedly thus the long chapter.

If you want to see 2AM’s performance of “Proposal” at Chocolate (with English subs) check this out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KJjLa8v6KgY <- that’s where I got the subs, credits to the subber and uploader.

What a long author’s note too. Sorry my dear, dear readers. See you in the next chapters! ^^ (Hope it wouldn’t take too long though. LOL~)
