Y/N POV:

"Aww baby.  I miss you too!"  I looked at Jimin's sad face on the video call and had to hold back the tears that were threatening to slide down my cheeks.  He looked miserable and I hated it.  "You're going to be home in a week so don't be too sad."  It was the Tuesday after Thanksgiving and I had arrived home on Sunday night after taking a flight back from Los Angeles.  Although I had spoken to Jimin each day since I arrived, he had the same sad face each time.

"I know but I miss you."  Jimin's words were sincere and they made my heart flutter.  A voice behind him said something and Jimin sighed.  "I have to go.  We need to get ready for practice."

I nodded.  "Okay.  Have fun and don't work too hard.  I love you." 

Jimin's smile brightened at my words.  "I love you and when I come back, we start to plan our wedding."

Nodding my head, I grinned.  "Sounds good to me."  We disconnected the call and I looked down at the ring on my left hand, a ring I couldn't believe was there, a ring Jimin had put there when he asked me to marry him.

Flashback:

"Oh my god Jimin! This is beautiful!"  My mouth dropped open in surprise as we stepped out of the building and into a beautiful oasis.  Since Jimin had his first concert at Sofi Stadium tomorrow night, he had asked to take me on a date.  It was how we ended up at the Huntington Botanical Gardens.  The view from the deck was stunning and we hadn't even really stepped foot into the gardens yet.  There was a bridge crossing a tiny creek, along with impressive Chinese style buildings.  Although I had wanted to protest, Jimin had rented the place out for the afternoon and we were alone in this little slice of heaven.

"Do you like it?"  Jimin's voice was nervous, full of uncertainty.  I turned to my handsome boyfriend and ran a hand down his cheek, grinning when he nuzzled further into my touch.

"This is probably one of the most beautiful places I have ever been."  Kissing Jimin's lips gently, I melted into his touch when he wrapped his arms around my waist, pulling me close to his body.

"When I come back to Seoul, I shall take you to Four Seasons Park.  It is on roof of Garden 5.  It is very beautiful."  Jimin's voice was filled with happiness and the idea of going on another date like this made me giddy with excitement, but then his eyes turned sad.  "I'm... I'm sorry I can not take you on more dates."

Shaking my head, I hugged him tight.  "Stop baby.  What did I tell you before?"

Jimin gave me a small smile, his nose nuzzling into my cheek.  "That I don't need take you on lots of dates.  That you like takeout and movies on sofa.  Snuggling."  Jimin pressed his lower body close to mine and I almost asked if we could back to the rental house.  "Time in bed."

"Yes.  To all of the above."  Running a hand through his hair, I tried to soothe away the worry he was so obviously feeling.  I knew it was hard for Jimin to sometimes believe, but I didn't need fancy dates.   I was just so incredibly grateful to be his girlfriend, to be able to kiss him, to hold him, to love him like I do, feel the love he had for me.  I didn't need anything else.

Jimin nodded and took my hand, leading me off the deck and into the garden.  We stopped to admire the flowers and marvel over the architecture, making small talk as we walked.  We had just made it to the center of the pretty bridge when Jimin tugged me to a stop.  "I love you Y/N."

The sudden love confession was unexpected and I turned to grin at him.  "I love you too."

"Do... do you really like being my... my girlfriend?"  Jimin's question was nervous and I could see him chewing the inside of his cheek.
