The fabric
Next morning
APoV
"Your pregnancy seems to be progressing well." Jin smiles, but Y/n remains too distracted by her own thoughts to respond. She doesn't even flinch when the cold stethoscope is placed against her chest, a habit Jin was used to her doing and because she hadn't this time, he knew something was up.
"Are you sleeping well?" He asks. "Getting at least 8 hours, yes?"
"I think so."
"And food. You're eating enough?"
"Mm."
"What does "mm" mean? You're eating 2000 calories right?"
"No it's more near 1500."
"Y/n you're a smart girl. You know that's not enough when you're carrying a child—."
"Jin I've already gained 6 pounds in the last few weeks."
Chuckling, Jin wraps the stethoscope around his neck before heading across to his medical trolley.
"What's so funny?" Y/n asks.
"Well did you ever consider your weight gain is because there's a 6 pound baby inside of you."
The girl turns silent for a moment, and Jin takes that as his opportunity to engage her in his wisdom.
"You're not the first woman I've had this chat with. When Jisoo was pregnant with Nini, she spent an entire month crying."
Face turning sad, Y/n looks at the man confused. "She cried? Why?"
"Couldn't fit into her jeans." He shrugs.
"...oh."
"But." The male turns and walks back towards the girl. "What really upset her; was the fact that she thought she wasn't attractive to her husband anymore. Is that what's going on with you?"
"...no."
"Wow you're a shit liar."
Sighing Y/n hops down from the table she'd been sat on. "It's more then that Jin. I feel like we're losing our spark."
"The light it again."
"What?"
"Boys like romance too Y/n." The male smirks before leaving the room.
Later that evening
"Why are we here again?" Jimin asks, now entering inside the supermarket store with Y/n.
"Because I need a bouquet of roses, chocolates and some candles."
"Wow you really go all out for family movie nights."
"It's not for that. Jungkook has a late driving lesson tonight so I'm gonna decorate the room for when he comes back and well...you know." The girls quick glance is enough to fill the blank in Jimins mind.
"Thought you wanted this dry spell to continue till after the baby was born?" He asks.
"I changed my mind." Y/n replies before reaching to one of the shelves for a box of chocolates. She holds it close to her ear and shakes it. "Do you think there's really 20 inside?"
"Yeah I guess but listen. You don't have to force yourself into anything you're not comfortable with Y/n."
"Oh yeah. Sex with my fiancé, what a burden."
"I mean—." Grabbing her arm Jimin stops the girl from progressing further down the aisle. "Don't tell yourself you wanna have sex just because it's what Jungkook wants. He shouldn't make you feel like you're doing something wrong."
"He isn't. I just wanna show him how much he means to me."
"There are other ways to do that."
"I know but I wanna do it this way."
"Do you really or are you just sayi—."
"Jimin will you back off!!"
The girls sudden volume is shocking. And so Jimin decides to keep his opinions to himself.
Sighing Y/n stops in her tracks. "I'm sorry. Snapping at you is the least you deserve. Can you please...just help me find the things I'm looking for so we can head home? My backs hurting and the baby is treating my bladder like a squeeze toy today."
"You shouldn't have downed that apple juice then should ya." The male says, a smirk like smile forming before he ruffles the girls hair and progresses down the aisle.
Y/n is over 6 months pregnant. She's worked late nights at a club full of arse holes and continues to face challenges surrounding her relationship with Jungkook. She was allowed to lash out, and Jimin knew it would be inconsiderate of him to sulk over a small snap here and then.
7:28pm
Y/n PoV
I take a step back from the bed which I've just finished scattering rose petals over. The candles are lit and the full box of chocolates has been placed on the side desk.
Well.
Almost full. I got peckish.
I've showered and attempted to make myself as dolled up as any pregnant woman can be. However I'm not sure my maternity leggings class as sexy attire...
I check my phone for the time.
"Half an hour late?"
1 hour later
No texts or calls.
Ive eaten at least three quarters of the chocolates now and half of the candles have burnt out. Knew I shouldn't have gotten tea lights but what was I supposed to do? Decorate the room in yankees??
I check my phone again for any missed messages, but I'm disappointed to only see all the missed calls I've sent out to him.
20 minutes later
I stir awake when hearing the door rattle. Sitting up I see Jungkook enter inside the bedroom.
"Where have you been????"
"Driving lesson." He shrugs before pecking me on the cheek. "It went really well this time. The instructor reckons I'll be ready for my test within the next mon—." The boy pauses to look around the room. "Did you light candles in here?"
I furrow my brows at him. "Seriously? I'm sitting on a bed of rose petals and a bunch of burnt out tea lights it was you notice?"
"Well not just that. You have chocolate around your mouth." He teases at me.
Through embarrassment I cover my mouth, and Jungkook helps by handing me my pack of makeup wipes from the side.
"So what's with all this then?" he asks.
"Was supposed to be romantic." I tut disappointed.
"You alright?" He looks at me funny.
"No. You're over two hours late home and you didn't call to warn me."
"But I told you why, I was in a driving lesson—."
"You're never back this late though."
"Yeah because the instructor was late picking me up."
I don't believe him.
With an unconvincing explanation given to me, I attempt to get up and leave. But he stops me straight away.
"Move Kooks."
"Why are you so upset?"
"I'm not upset I need to pee."
"God you're a bad liar—."
"Yeah well so are you!" I snap, and his confused face just angers me even more. "No one does a three hour driving lesson! You were somewhere else and you're lying about it—."
"Y/n you're thinking too much about it—."
"No Jungkook you're thinking too little about it!! Keeping you loyal has always been a challenge in the past so I'm just going to ask you this now. Are you cheating on me?"
"...what??"
"You heard me perfectly clear."
"That what wasn't through a lack of hearing but more so a questioning of your sanity Y/n? Why on earth would I be cheating on you??"
"Because I'm no longer attractive to you anymore."
"Okay now you're losing it." His sarcastic laughter is more hurtful than reassuring.
"Are you really laughing at me right now?" I say with a shaken voice; one that alarms him to look at me concerned. "Jungkook tell me the truth. Where were you tonight?"
He sighs in response, and I'm confused when he looks a little irritated.
"Why must you always ruin my surprises?"
"Surprises?" I question. And the boy simply responds by taking me by the hand and leading me to Jin and Jisoo's bedroom.
"Jungkook what the hell is going on??"
"Well it was supposed to be a surprise I would reveal nearer the time. But now that you've thrown cheating accusations in my face, I've realised it's best to reveal it to you now." The boy reaches for the covered object hanging on the wardrobe door. He unzips it's, revealing a beautiful white fabric which looks to be of a silk and lace mixture.
"..I'm confused." I blurt.
With eyes fixed on the fabric, Jungkook begins to speak. "You once told me your favourite material was silk because of the softness. But that you also love the look of flowers sown into lace."
"We don't have much money between us Y/n. But I still want you to be able to have a wedding dress you'll love. So I saved up my portrait wages and purchased this fabric, which has been on hold for me at the seamstresses store which is over an hour away. I picked it up tonight after my lesson which is why I was late home. A woman has agreed to use it to make your dress for an affordable price."
I look at him in disbelief. "That so sweet of you." I say almost crying. "I-I can't believe you've done all that for me."
"Wait I'm confused. Are you crying because you're happy?" the boy asks and I nod.
"Very happy."
"You and your emotions." He tuts; about to put the fabric down when I embrace him in a tight hug.
"You're amazing." I tell him.
"And you're dumb. How could you ever believe I'd want to cheat on you? It's not like I could possibly do any better."
"Well you've been distant lately."
"I've had to work extra hard to get those portraits done so I could afford the fabric. I couldn't spare much time to you I'm sorry."
I shake my head and squeeze him tighter. "You don't have to say sorry. Not now."
"So you like the fabric?"
"It's beautiful. I can't wait for it to become my dress."
"Yeah well it was fucking expensive fabric so it's a good thing you're not obese. Don't think I can afford anymore"
With a laugh slipping out of me I look up at him. And he looks down.
"Jeon Jungkook are you saying if I was obese you wouldn't love me anymore?"
"Course not. There would simply just be more of you to love, but less room for me in the bed."
With a scrunched up smile I playfully punch his arm and go back to hugging him.
