"You look anxious, bro." Jackson said as he pat Jeongguk by the shoulder.

"I am, bro." Jeongguk admitted, shaking his trembling hands a little to calm himself.

Everyone was already in the wedding hall and only a few minutes left before he could see Taehyung emerging from the closed door.

He's excited, anxious, and ecstatic all at the same time as he stood unwavering in front.

"Keep calm. Everything will be fine." Namjoon consoled with a smile.

"I saw Taehyung and he's fucking gorgeous as ever." Seokjin said which made the ravenette smile.

"He's always gorgeous, hyung." Jeongguk responded which earned a scoff from the other.

"Yeah, yeah. You're whipped as fuck." Seokjin murmured before taking his place next to him.

He's Jeongguk's best man while Jimin was Taehyung's.

The solemn music started playing which made Jeongguk's heart pound harder than before.

The groomsmaids and groomsmen started walking the aisle but Jeongguk only had his eyes settled on the closed door as if nothing else mattered than seeing Taehyung walk down the aisle towards him.

With every tick of the clock, Jeongguk's heartbeat grew louder.

And just like those scenes in the movies, everything started to slow down, even his breathing when the door finally opened in tune to the amplified solemn music resonating in the hall.

Jeongguk was suffocating from anxiety and excitement as he had a glimpse of Taehyung's face.

He's unaware that as he stared at Taehyung's smile and teary eyes, his own tears cascaded down his eyes.

"Tae.." Jeongguk uttered, breathless.

His love is beyond breathtaking as he walked towards him in black suit while holding a bouquet of white roses that symbolized the purity of their love.

Jeongguk could see Taehyung's tears or was it his own... he didn't know.

All that mattered at the moment was the love he could see from Taehyung's eyes and the genuine happiness in his smile.

Beautiful... and he's mine.

Jeongguk's heart swelled with pride as Taehyung finally stood in front of him.

He took his hand and planted a soft kiss on it while his tears continued to cascade his eyes.

"You're beautiful, my love." Jeongguk whispered as he stared lovingly at those hazel eyes that spoke of nothing but happiness and love.

"And you are too." Taehyung chuckled as he bit his lips to suppress his tears.

The ceremony finally started with the lovers being as emotional as ever which made their friends giggle in tears at the same time.

The lovers could see the anticipation in their friends' fond faces, smiling supportively as the two of them stared at each other for the most anticipated moment.

Jeongguk took the ring as he held Taehyung's left hand, all the while not breaking eye contact.

He gave him a smile before heaving a deep sigh to stable his beating heart which made Taehyung smile as he listened to his vow.

"I, Jeon Jeongguk, promise to cherish and love you until my very last breath. There will be tough times that would challenge our love, I know... but you are an enough reason for me to hold on. Only you, Kim Taehyung." Jeongguk whispered, gliding the ring on Taehyung's finger.

"I love you... always... in all ways." He added before planting a soft kiss on the ring adorning Taehyung's finger.

This gesture made Taehyung sob even more. His trembling hand reached for the other ring as he took Jeongguk's hand which was trembling just as much.

This had Taehyung chuckling in between tears, looking straight on Jeongguk's raven eyes.

He felt like he was drowning in the love he could see in them which made his heart swell from happiness.

He gulped to push the lump in his throat before opening his mouth to speak.

"I..Kim Taehyung.. vow to love and be with you from this day forward with our little Yeontan." Taehyung said which made Jeongguk smile amid his tears.

"There will not be a day that I won't be grateful to have you beside me while we both make our dreams into reality... together." He added, slowly sliding the ring on Jeongguk's finger.

"You captured my heart, Jeon Jeongguk. Now and for the days to come....I love you." Taehyung whispered.

The two of them stared at each other for a long time before Jeongguk leaned forward to claim his lips in a passionate kiss.

Loud applause erupted from the people who had witnessed the binding of their love.

Yet, the only thing Taehyung and Jeongguk could hear were the loud beating of their hearts as they let their lips mold in a kiss of promise.

A promise of a lifetime together.
