The One

~ 3:00 am ~

Unable to sleep for some reason, I lazily rolled off of my bed and decided to get a drink downstairs.

Silently exiting my room and tip-toeing down the stairs, I quietly gasped at the sight of a large, black figure sitting up at the couch in the living room.

Although it was dark and difficult to see, by the way his fluffy hair swayed, I knew it was Taehyung.

"Taehyung." I whispered, causing him to flinch in surprise and hastily turn back to look at me.

"Can't sleep?" He asked.

I replied with a nod.

"Wanna go get some fresh air?" He asked, and once again, I replied with a nod.

Avoiding the motionless, dead-body-like, wasted boys sleeping on the ground, we swiftly grabbed our jackets and exited out of the house.

Walking down the street with our hands stuffed in our pockets, we headed to a nearby park.

Although the temperature was freezing, it still felt really good to just casually walk along Taehyung with only the sounds of our footsteps echoing through our noiseless surrounding.

Upon reaching the park, we plopped ourselves down on the cold grass and laid down on our backs, just silently gazing up at the cobalt blue sky and it's glistening, beauteous stars.

"I like this." Taehyung said, causing a white smoke to escape from his mouth from the freezing temperature.

"Me too." I muttered back.

After a moment of just silently staring up at the peaceful, night sky, Taehyung suddenly spoke up.

"You know Aera, I'm really glad I met you."

My already red cheeks flushed even more, causing me to let out a sheepish chuckle.

"Why?" I shyly asked.

"Because" He said as he paused, shifting his body closer to mine as he gently hovered his warm hand over mine.

"You changed my life."

My cheeks tinting from his sudden words and his action, I couldn't help but just stay speechless from the great nervousness and anxiety that were gradually filling up inside my heart.

"I've never knew how it felt to genuinely, honestly like someone, how much it hurt to see that person suffering from the pain and affliction that I caused, and how it felt to strongly desire for that person, but being unable to have her since she no longer loved me."

"Wait, are you saying... that you like me?" I reluctantly asked, my heart beat increasing with the great tension and suspense I was feeling at this very moment.

"Depends. Do you like anyone?" Taehyung curiously asked.

Although it was probably obvious as hell, I replied with a shy nod.

"Who?" He eagerly asked.

"You tell me first." I said, afraid of embarrassing myself if I confessed before him.

"I asked you first." Taehyung said, causing me to groan in annoyance.

"Okay fine, lets say it at the same time." I said, thinking this was the best way to solve this.

"Alright." He said.

"1...2...3."

"It's you." We both said in sync, causing both of us to look at each other with widened eyes as we gasped in utter astonishment.

"R-Really?" I timidly questioned him, extremely surprised from his confession.

Although he consistently chased me around school everyday, clearly making it obvious that he was trying to win my heart, I never really thought he actually had feelings for me.

"Really." Taehyung assured, a genuine, blissful grin gradually creeping onto his face.

We really seemed like some immature middle schoolers confessing their innocent love to each other.

Shifting our bodies so we were both facing each other, we just continued to stare into each other's eyes which were full of nothing but genuine passion and adulation.

Taehyung gradually brought his right hand up to my cheek, gently cupping it as he affectionately smiled at me.

"Although I cant promise you that I wont screw up again since I'm such a careless idiot, I can promise you that I'll cherish you and love you the way you deserve to be." He sheepishly said as he lightly caressed my cheek with his thumb.

"Kim Aera, will you take this stupid but loving idiot to be your beloved boyfriend?"

I couldn't help but chuckle at his extremely cheesy ask-out.

"Are you sure you want a boring dweeb like me to be your girlfriend?" I asked.

Taehyung let out a small laugh, his adorable box smile never leaving his face even for a split second.

"I couldn't possibly ask for anyone better."

With that, we gently clashed our lips against each other, sharing an extremely passionate, tender kiss.

Laying by Taehyung's side and embraced in his calming arms, our hearts burned with great enchantment and adoration despite the cold weather, under the radiant, dazzling night sky.

This was literally the greatest Christmas present I could ever have.

~ Taehyung's POV ~

Slowly pulling apart from each other, Aera and I just deeply stared into our sparkling eyes, both of us an extreme blushing mess.

Not gonna lie, this may have been the happiest moment in my entire life.

Aera was finally mine, and only mine.

I genuinely loved her with all my heart, and so did she.

She's not perfect.

There are scars on the surface of her heart.

I'm convinced that she has experienced a set of painful events throughout her life as she has become what people refer to her as 'broken'.

In my eyes, she's the most beautiful arrangement of broken I've ever witnessed in my life.

I just passionately stared at her, thinking to myself,

"she's my future, she's the one"
