~When you were kids~

Hyunjin ran up to his mom crying and quickly hides behind her leg.

His mom moves over and kneels down, wiping the tears from his eyes. "Why are you crying?"

Hyunjin sniffles and says something through his sobs, the only thing that's understandable "... wants to marry me... And that's why I'm crying..."

His mom let's out a soft laugh, knowing exactly what's happening again. "You're crying because you don't want to marry her?"

Hyunjin nods his head, sniffling more. "Yes..."

"I WILL MARRY YOU!!!" Your voice rings out from a short distance away on the playground, holding your baby doll tightly like a child.

"NOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!" Hyunjin screeches, starting to cry harder.

~Years and years later~

You take a deep breath, smoothing the skirt of your dress before looping your arm through your father's, preparing for the most important walk of your life. The music swells and the doors open, your father leading you down the aisle with slow steps.

He hands you off, giving your soon to be husband a look that warns of what he'll do if you're not treated like the queen you are.

The ceremony is beautiful, the venue decorated like the wedding of your dreams. Your dress is like it was designed just for you, fitting like a glove and checking every box, including having deep pockets. Your vows left no dry eyes, including your own, meaning you had to dab your eyes to keep from your mascara smudging.

"I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may kiss the bride." The officiant says, quickly stepping out of the way for pictures. Your now husband grabs your hips and pulls you closer, pressing his forehead to yours for a second.

"And to think, you said you didn't want to marry me, only for you to be the one to propose." You whisper so only he can hear, a teasing smile on your lips.

"I had to make sure you didn't see it coming, now didn't I?" Hyunjin whispers back, bringing one hand up from your waist to tilt your chin up a little.

"Say what you want. I always knew I would marry you. I've told you that since we were kids." You whisper, looking into his eyes.

"Oh, shut up and kiss me, wife." He says playfully, finally leaning in and connecting his lips with yours for the first time as husband and wife.
