Minnie POV
In the morning, I slowly opened my eyes and saw Will sleeping soundly beside me. A small smile appeared on my face as I quietly got out of bed, took Will's black shirt, and wore it before going to the kitchen to prepare breakfast for us.
After a few minutes, I heard the bedroom door open, and before I could turn around, Will came behind me and gave me a back hug. "Morning, Will," I said softly. He looked at me and smiled. "You look beautiful in my shirt, love." I immediately looked down, feeling my face getting hot with embarrassment.
He gently turned me around and started placing soft kisses on my neck and jawline. I tried to push him away, but he turned me toward him and gently placed me on the kitchen counter, standing between my legs. Our faces were close, and I could feel his warm breath against mine. He placed a small kiss on my lips and whispered, "What kind of wedding do you want, love?"
I wrapped my arms around the back of his shoulders and smiled. "I want a grand white wedding. I want the hall to be completely filled with flowers, beautiful lights, and a huge crowd." For a second, I looked at him before suddenly bursting into laughter.
Will looked at me with a completely confused expression. "What?" he asked.
"Nothing," I said, still laughing. He shook his head and said, "We will do whatever you want." I immediately shook my head. "I was just kidding. I don't need a destination wedding or anything that grand. I actually like simple weddings, with only our close family and friends. Maybe an open-air wedding facing the sea." He raised his eyebrows and stared at me. "You're different, love." I smiled at him. "I know."
All of a sudden, I heard the sound of the front door opening, followed by Sara's loud voice. "Minnie! Look who is here!" I turned around, and the moment I saw them, my eyes widened. I quickly pushed Will away and got down from the counter.
"Mom… Dad…" I whispered in shock. My mom looked at me, completely confused. "Minnie, what are you…" She started walking toward me and raised her hand to hit me, but before she could, Will immediately stepped in front of me and took the hit instead. My eyes widened. "Mom!" She looked at Will angrily and asked, "What are you doing here? Is this why you came to Paris?" She stopped for a moment, looked at him carefully, then pointed at him. "You are Will… right?"
Will nodded nervously. The next second, Dad stepped forward with an angry expression. "So you're the one who broke my daughter's heart." He started walking toward Will, but I quickly stood between them and stopped him. "Dad, please let me explain. We already decided to get married."
Both Mom and Dad became silent, but from their expressions, I could tell they didn't believe what they were hearing. I looked at Sara desperately. "Sara, tell them! They don't believe me." Sara's eyes widened, and Mom immediately turned toward her. "Sara, you also knew about their relationship?" Sara gave an awkward smile and said, "Aunty, let's let them change first. Then we can all sit down and talk."
Only then I realize that I was still wearing Will's shirt. I closed my eyes in embarrassment and quickly moved behind Will while Dad simply sighed and nodded.
The next second, we went into my bedroom. Will closed the door while I sat on the bed, completely stressed and wondering what I was going to do. Will came and knelt in front of me, gently holding my hands. "Love, take a breath. I'll take care of this," he said reassuringly.
I closed my eyes, took a deep breath, and nodded. After we changed, we went back to the hall, where Mom and Dad were sitting on the sofa, while Sara was in the kitchen preparing coffee for them. Will sat on the sofa, and I quickly went to Sara. "Sara, did you know they were coming here?" I asked worriedly.
She looked at me and shook her head. "Minnie, I seriously didn't know. Yesterday, I was with Akil, and this morning Aunty called me and told me that they had reached Paris. She asked for your address because they wanted to surprise you. I tried calling you, but you didn't pick up. And I had no idea Will was with you yesterday!"
She said everything in one breath. I sighed and said, "It's okay, Sara. Anyway, one day we had to tell them about us." Sara nodded and continued preparing coffee for my parents.
We went back to the hall, but before I could even sit down, I heard a knock on the main door.
I opened the door and froze again it was Will's mom
She smiled warmly and immediately pulled me into a hug. " Minnie! Finally! I heard the news. Will finally proposed to you!" I blinked in surprise. "You already knew?" She laughed. "Of course I know Luna Told me"
She walked inside, but the moment she saw my parents sitting in the hall, she stopped. "Oh… Minnie. Your parents are here?" I nodded nervously. Mom immediately stood up and greeted her, and after a few awkward seconds, the two mothers started talking. Will's mom quickly understood what had happened and looked at Will with a small smile, as if silently telling him, Now it's your turn.
Will stood up and walked toward my parents, I saw him without his usual playful smile. He looked completely serious. "Aunty, Uncle… I know you have every reason to be angry with me. I know I hurt Minnie, and I can't change what I did. But I really love your daughter. I can't imagine my life without her."
Dad's expression remained hard. "You already broke her heart once. How do I know you won't do it again?" Will took a deep breath. "You don't have to believe my words, Uncle. Let me prove it through my actions. When I left Minnie, I thought I was protecting her because I didn't believe in love anymore. I didn't want to give her false hope. But after she was gone, I realized that she wasn't just someone I loved. She was the person I couldn't live without. I made the biggest mistake of my life by walking away from her." His voice became softer.
"I'm not asking you to forget what I did. I'm only asking you to give me one second chance to prove that I won't hurt her again."
I couldn't hold my tears anymore. I walked over and stood beside him, holding his hand. "Dad, I know you're scared because you don't want to see me hurt again. But I know Will has changed. I trust him. Please trust me too."
Mom looked at me for a long moment, and I could see the worry in her eyes slowly turning into acceptance. She sighed and smiled softly. "Minnie, if you're truly happy with him and you believe he won't hurt you again, then we accept him."
Dad remained silent for a moment before looking directly at Will. "Your mother is right. But Will, if you hurt my daughter again, I won't stay quiet." Will hold my hand tighter and nodded. "I understand, Uncle. And I promise you, I'll never give you a reason to regret trusting me."
Dad finally nodded, and the tension in the room disappeared. Will pulled me into a hug, and I smiled through my tears.At that moment, I felt like a huge weight had been lifted from my heart.
After that, we spent the rest of the day together. I talked with Mom and Dad while they asked Will questions and slowly got to know him better. We all had lunch together, and eventually, the tension in the house disappeared. Later, Will and his mom left the house, while Mom and Dad decided to sleep in Sara's room.
Sara came to my room, and we lay down together. She looked at me with a huge smile and said, "Minnie, I'm so happy for you. Finally, you're happy in your life. You struggled a lot, my bestie, and I really trust Will. He'll take care of you well." I smiled and nodded, feeling peaceful for the long time.
After a few days, the concert day finally arrived, and I was super excited. The girls and I got ready, and when I finally came downstairs, I saw Mom opening the door. Outside, Will, Nova, and Akil were waiting for us. I smiled at them and said, "Hello, handsome boys!"
Will immediately came toward me and kissed my forehead. I widened my eyes and quickly hit his arm. "Will! Mom is here!" I whispered, embarrassed.
Mom looked at us and laughed before saying, "You guys aren't late, are you? Hurry up!" Luna and Sara came outside, and soon all of us left for the concert stadium. My heart was already racing with excitement because I couldn't believe that the day had finally arrived. I was finally going to see BTS live, surrounded by the people I loved the most.
The moment we stepped inside the stadium, all of us completely forgot how to behave like normal adults. We instantly became fangirls. The lights, the huge stage, the ARMY Bombs glowing everywhere, the music playing in the background, and thousands of fans screaming around us made my heart race.
The moment BTS appeared on the stage, Sara grabbed my hand and screamed, Luna started jumping, and I couldn't stop smiling. We took countless pictures and videos, sang along to every song we knew, and screamed until our voices almost disappeared. When the members came closer to our side of the stage, I just stood there staring at them with tears in my eyes. "They're really here," I whispered, unable to believe that the dream I had imagined so many times was finally happening.
At some point, I felt Will gently hold my hand. I looked at him, and he smiled when he saw my tears. "Happy?" he asked. I nodded, wiping my cheeks. "Very."While watching the stage, I suddenly remembered something RM had said before about not having to know exactly where your life is going and simply continuing to move forward, loving yourself along the way. Those words hit me differently that night.
The concert ended with all of us exhausted, emotional, and smiling like crazy. Sara and Luna were crying, Akil was trying to comfort Sara while secretly smiling, and Nova was still recording our reactions. I leaned against Will's shoulder while he held my hand, and I looked at everyone around me.
I smiled and looked at Will. "You know what?" I whispered. "I really love my life now." He kissed my forehead and squeezed my hand. I looked at my friends, my family, the people who stayed, the dreams that came true, and all the memories I had made along the way.
Maybe my life wasn't perfect.
But it was mine.
The concert came to an end but my life is beginning with new chapter and after everything I had been through, I finally learned to love it.
Will POV
I watched Minnie standing beside me, still smiling after the concert. Her eyes were filled with happy tears, and somehow, seeing her like that made everything feel worth it. I gently took her hand and looked at her. There was a time when I thought leaving her was the right thing to do. I thought I was protecting both of us, but all I did was hurt the person I loved the most. Now she was standing beside me, stronger, happier, and chasing the dreams she once only talked about. And somehow, she had taught me to believe in love again.
She looked at me and smiled. "Why are you looking at me like that?"
"Because I'm still trying to believe you're really mine."
She laughed softly. "I'm not going anywhere, Will."
I held her hand tighter. "Good. Because I don't want to lose you again."
We started walking toward the exit with our friends, laughing and talking about the concert. I looked back once at the glowing stadium before looking at Minnie again. The night air was cool, and the city lights shone around us as she rested her head against my shoulder. I smiled and intertwined my fingers with hers.
I once walked away from her.
Now, I was walking beside her.
And under the Paris night, with her hand in mine, I knew exactly where I belonged With her.
