The young man spoke words only of truth, because at this moment, the one before him was the woman he thought was beyond his reach.

With tender eyes, he asks his lover that he loves so much, ''Why are you so mesmerizing?''

The empty room that was emitting only darkness didn't stop the man from devouring her appearance. The sweet smell of lavender that was dominating the air only helped to lure them further in. Taking the situation to its advantage, the man takes her hand in his and starts to kiss the fingertips of his dear one. After kissing them one by one, he arrives at his destination; the ring finger. The man now gazes lustfully down at the one that is his and takes her finger between his lips. Carefully, as if her finger might break, he slips it into his mouth and slowly takes it out revealing a ring that shines brightly warming his heart.

The woman beneath with eyes full of desire and lips agape started to pant as the one hovering over her started to leave trail of kisses up her wrist and down to her neck.

''Tell me your mine.'' He breathes out between the kisses.

Barely keeping up with him as he started to suck sweet marks on her, she could only let out incomprehensible voices.

''Mine.'' He says again.

Their voices got louder as their movements intensified.

''Yours.'' She managed to shake out.

The air in the room now heavy caused by their rapid breathing, their bodies soaked in sweat as they worked their way faster and saliva covered every sweet spot on her body – the longing of his finally came true.

''Y-Yoosung~'' she cries out – a melody beyond his imagination.

He breathes harder because it's so vivid, and whispers the name that's been occupying his existence for years.

Slowly but steadily the echoes of their lovemaking start to drift away. His expression utterly confused and horrid as he realizes the absence of her touch.

The voice comes back calling his name, ''Yoosung? Yoosung!''

Furrowing his brows, he suddenly snaps his eyes open as he feels a cold hand on his bare shoulder.

''Yoosung, are you alright?'' the kind voice speaks as her before cold touch is getting warmer.

He looks up and sees the possessor of his mind and soul. He is captivated by her angelic looks as the sun burns her almost bare skin and as the waterdrops that are falling from her hair makes their way down her smooth and silky skin.

''It looked as if you were having a nightmare. I think you called my name?''

Realizing what just happened, he praised himself for deciding to lay on his stomach. Whatever arousal might be pointing out on the front won't be visible to others.

She continued showing her concerns, ''And now your cheeks look bloodshot! Are you feeling well? Should I gather others?''

Yoosung smiles brightly as he always does, ''No, I'm fine. I must be feeling a bit tired, the sun is warm and all, you know?''

She looks a bit doubtful but smiles again, ''Okay, if you say so. I'll go get you a drink. Stay put!'' and then she walks away to the far away bar.

Sighing Yoosung looks around his surrounding and after seeing no one is looking his way he gets up. Hurrying to the nearest shower stall he lets the cold water fall down his body. This should be enough to calm him down he thinks as he looks under his abdomen. He runs a hand through his hair and growls with frustration, ''This shouldn't be going on.''

Meanwhile, the one who is the cause of Yoosung's frustration was coming back with a cold beverage and on her way, she encounters Jumin.

Jumin had a towel wrapped around his hip and his wet hair was slicked back with a few strands landing over his eyes. He stood before her with a smirk.

With a grin of her own she asked, ''Had fun swimming, honey?''

''Not without you.'' He pouts.

Letting out a shy laugh she assured him that she'll be right by his side soon. Changing the topic, she continues, ''I was on my way to Yoosung. He seems tired these days. I suppose his studies is really getting to him.''

Jumin pondered for a while, ''I haven't noticed anything like that at work… but he does seem to speak a bit harsher as the days go on.''

''Harsher?''

Both give each other confused looks and Jumin continues, ''I can't pinpoint it, but he's slightly different from his usual cheerful self. But if he does his work then there's no problem, I reckon?''

With a teasing smile she jokes with him, ''What if he's rebelling against you because you give him too much work?''

Jumin rubs his chin and thinks about the past weeks, ''I don't… think so.''

Her giggling causes his serious face to soften and both share a loving moment.

Yoosung who had been observing them for a while starts to walk toward them. Each step he takes, reminds him of his jealousy that he desperately wants to get rid of. Upon standing in front of them he looks at MC, not giving any glance to the man next to her. She automatically smiles at him, the kind smile that she shows everyone. Each time he sees that smile it makes his heart bleed, because he has witnessed smiles far greater than this directed, not at him, but at Jumin.

She hands Yoosung his drink and then she takes notice on his body that he had yet to dry. Taking the towel that was wrapped around her waist, she covers his shoulder with it.

''Yoosung, even if it's summer you should be careful to not catch a cold. We don't want you getting sick now, okay?''

Jumin nods in agreement.

Troubled by the situation Yoosung clicks his tongue which causes those two in his view to raise their eyebrows. He has never been like this, because his jealousy has always been in check. But because he is human and because he hasn't settled his feelings, sometimes even he can't control his actions.

He always wonders if she is aware of what she does to him? One second she's showering him in kindness and love but the other, she is in another man's arm giving him more love and kindness ever given to him.

Just like Rika.

To Yoosung Rika was someone he admired dearly and wished to keep to himself until he found someone as beautiful and admirable as her. When he did find that special one, unfortunately she already had given her heart to someone else.

Breaking his thoughts and the heavy atmosphere, Seven jumped on Yoosung in with his red trousers that that several peach emoji on them.

''Aw man!'' Seven cries out standing beside Yoosung, ''It's no fun jumping on you now that you're so tall.''

''Of course!'' MC joined in, ''Yoosung is stressed as it is, so you shouldn't tease him like before.''

''Why am I the only one getting scolded?'' Seven takes MC's hand in his and swirls her around, ''What about you, my little partner in crime?''

Taking her hand out from his, she stands straight looking proud, ''Me? I have matured.''

Yoosung observed every expression, every gesture, every tone – everything. While intensely looking over at MC, he feels someone's eyes on him. Looking up he sees those eyes belong to Jumin. His eyes felt icy cold and looked almost threatening as if he knew about Yoosung's most desperate wish. Yoosung felt pressure under his gaze but he had no intention to lose this fight so he stared right back.

Jumin pulled MC to him by slipping his hand on her waist. Yoosung breaks their eye contact and looks at her waist that had someone else hand laying there. Yoosung clenches his jaw and swears to break that hand… only if he had the courage.

Jumin's eyes moved over to Seven, ''No one in this world is allowed to scold my lady.'' Shifting his eyes to the one he's holding tightly he continues in a whisper but loud enough for others to hear, ''I'm the only one who can scold her, and that is specifically during our sweet private time.''

Getting the hint of what he meant, Seven rolled his eyes. MC gasped and then hit Jumin playfully on the chest, but she looked truly happy.

Yoosung, on the other hand wanted to run away. He wanted to take his lover from all this, but his lover was already trapped as the main character in where he was just a secondary character. Just like those Korean dramas that he watched where the second lead had no chance despite being the worthiest of them all. Therefore, he sometimes wished everyone but him and MC to disappear so the only one she could look up to would be him.

''Yeah, yeah. We know you both are deeply in love even after 2 years,'' said Seven waving his hands, ''but what's the occasion to invite us to this luxurious private beach?''

Jumin and MC looked at each other and blushed. MC then called Zen and Jaehee so that everyone was gathered.

All the attention was on the couple and even Yoosung could not help but wonder what they wanted to say.

The couple held their hand that had their engagement ring and with a shy smile they both said, ''We're getting married next month!''

Blood drenched from Yoosung's face and he almost dropped the glass he has been holding for a while. Other showered them with all kind of comments such as,

''Argh, I thought Elly did have chance!'' Seven cries playfully.

Jumin sighed, ''Her name is Elizabeth 3rd and she's just an animal, my soulmate is here with me.''

Zen added a comment of his own, ''About time, jerk. You've been making MC wait for too long''

Jumin eyes Zen, ''I've been wanting to marry her the moment I saw her, but it was her decision.''

Zen suddenly changed his claim, ''Then very smart of her. Who would want to marry right off the bat?''

Jaehee a less hectic than others say, ''I'm happy for you both, but it's still hard to believe that he has changed hmm.''

MC laughs at their ridiculous comments but it is obvious that every word is filled with affection.

All three of them congratulate them sincerely and properly this time. Yoosung is the only one who's been silent. Noticing that everyone shifted their attention to him, he managed to force his perfectly practiced fake smile.

''… C-Congrats.''
