You were asleep on the couch when your tv beeped, the boys popping up on the large screen.

"Y/N!"

You jerked awake and jumped a little too hard, falling onto the floor. You groaned and pushed yourself up, looking at your tv as you did so.

"How did you guys manage to do this?" You asked.

"I figured out how to connect to your tv. Pretty cool, huh?" Jisung beamed.

You smiled. "Very cool, just scary."

"Anyways," Jeongin started. "Today's training day."

You looked down at your phone and tapped it, seeing that it was already nine in the morning. "Why didn't one of you call me earlier! I still have to take a shower and get ready-"

"It's okay, we're not in any rush." Minho smiled. "Take your time."

You sighed and nodded. "Okay, I'll be there soon."

The tv clicked off and you ran a hand through your hair. Two years later, and the bond between you and Stray Kids was greater than ever. The boys had become part of the agency, since you, Changmin, and Riku thought that they'd be great assets to the team, (and you wanted an excuse to see them more often). You were even their personal trainer, since Riku had moved on to training the rookies, of course he still visited you, however.

You hopped into the shower and rinsed all the previous days dirt away with a satisfied sigh. You scrubbed your hair clean, and let all the hot water take your worries down the drain with it. Ever since you and the guys had put your dad and his team away, you had felt so much better. Maybe because deep down, you knew that something much worse was going on with your father, and you still couldn't put your finger on it. The reason he gave you for wanting you dead wasn't even sitting right with you. Either way, you were happy to know that he couldn't touch you, or anyone you loved, ever again.

You turned the hot water off and dried off, putting on some simple clothes, one of Jisung's t-shirts and some leggings. You slipped your sneakers on and brushed your hair out, finished getting ready, then you left your apartment.

You showed up to the agency with a distinguished happiness in your steps, and you made your way down to the training rooms. You entered yours, and the boys looked like they were falling asleep.

"Good morning!" You chirped.

They jumped up and started stretching, as if they weren't about to fall asleep on the mats. Jisung came up to you and gave you a kiss on the forehead.

"My shirt looks great on you." He smiled. "Anyways, I'm sorry I couldn't come over last night, I should've told you."

"It's okay, I just fell asleep on the couch waiting for you." You smiled.

He pouted and gave you his signature puppy dog eyes. "You know I didn't do it on purpose. I was stuck here all night and I didn't even have the chance to call you."

You cupped his face and gave him a little peck on the lips. "It's really okay, Ji. I know how you feel."

"Okay, I think we're ready, Y/N." Felix called.

You smiled at Jisung one more time before walking away and stretching a little yourself, then you sat down on the mat.

"Workout regimen first." You said, and you saw the disappointment on their faces. "Hey, it's not even that bad."

They nodded in agreement and got down on the mat with you, then you began your workout. After that, everyone wrapped their hands for physical training, and you watched as everyone paired up.

"Okay," You started. "The scenario for today is that someone pulled a gun on you during an undercover operation, how do you react in a way that is safe for you and efficient?"

Each pair had one person act like they pulled a gun on the other, and they started their training. You took notice to how much they had improved since the first time you tried training with them in their basement, and it made you smile. Everyone had their partner down on the ground in under forty five seconds, then they switched people. Again, they succeeded in their training with good time, and you clapped excitedly.

"You guys have really improved!" You smiled.

"I want to see Y/N and Jisung fight." Minho said. "As reference- you know?"

You looked at Jisung and he puffed his chest out, making you laugh as you stood in front of him. "Bring it on, Grandma." He smiled.

You gasped. "Did you just call me Grandma?"

"Yeah, what are you gonna do about it?"

You raised an eyebrow and waited for a moment before reaching for his arm. Before you could grab him, he caught your wrist and pulled you into him, only so he could get your leg out from under you and push you down. He held your shoulder to the mat, so you pushed up on his chest to flip him over.

You sat on his stomach and pinned his wrists to the mat underneath him, smiling mischievously. "You almost got me, Ji."

All he did was smile before flipping the two of you one more time, then he turned you over so that your stomach was against the mat. His knee was in the middle of your back, and he held your wrists above your head.

"I think I did get you, Y/N."

He got off of you so you could get up, and you sighed heavily. "That was really good, Jisung. I'm a little upset that you pinned me."

"What can I say?" He shrugged. "I learned from the best."

You smiled and started unwrapping your hands. "Training is over. We can go grab some lunch next door." You said.

Chan ran off to the showers. "It's on me!"

After lunch and a lot of time spent together with the boys, you went home and found Ki-Bum laying on your couch. He had gotten a bigger studio, and many more students over the span of two years, and he was very happy with everything he had achieved.

"Hey, Ki-Bum." You greeted.

He looked over and jumped off the couch. "Hey, Y/N. I can't stay for too long, but I wanted to stop by."

"I'm glad you did." You smiled. "I feel like we haven't seen each other in forever."

"I know, we've just been so busy." He sighed. "Anyways, I just wanted to tell you that I love you and I hope you enjoy the flowers that I put in your bedroom."

He smiled big and ruffled your hair, then he grabbed his keys off the counter. "You really can't stay a little longer?" You asked.

"No, I have another session in thirty minutes. I need to get back to the studio."

You pursed your lips. "Okay, Well, I love you, and I'm sure I'll love the flowers."

He gave you a quick hug and kissed the top of your head. "I love you, too. Bye, Y/N."

"Bye, Ki-Bum."

You went to your bedroom to see the flowers, and sure enough, there was a very large bouquet of many different flowers. He had already put them in a vase for you, and put them in your favorite spot for flowers. You smiled as your phone started ringing, and you quickly picked it up.

"Hello?"

"Y/N. I'm picking you up in thirty minutes." Jisung chirped. "We're going to that really nice restaurant that you've been wanting to go to!"

"Really?" You smiled. "I'll start getting ready."

He laughed on the other end. "Okay."

You hung up and ran to your closet, picking out a nice red dress. It was a dark red, one-shoulder, sequin dress, and it glimmered every time you moved. It ended right above your knees, and you topped it off with a pair of red heels. You curled your hair slightly and put on your favorite perfume, which Jisung loved, then your doorbell rang.

You ran as fast as you could in your heels to open the door, and when you opened the door, you couldn't even speak properly. Jisung looked extremely handsome in the suit he had on, and it made you forget how to function correctly.

"You look so handsome." You told him.

His cheeks went a little red, the tint in his cheeks matching yours. "You look very stunning yourself. Are you ready?"

He held his arm out, so you took it and shut your apartment door behind you. He walked you all the way out to his car like this, and he opened the door for you before going to his side.

When you got to the restaurant, he wrapped his arm around yours again, all the way until you were seated in the VIP area of the restaurant.

"So, what made you want to come here?" You asked.

"Am I not allowed to treat my girlfriend?" He asked. "I just thought it'd be nice to go on a little date."

"It is very nice." You smiled, putting your hand over his. "Thank you."

He smiled back. "Anything for you, Y/N."

The waiter came around and took your orders, then left shortly after. You admired Jisung from across the table, the way he did anything and everything making you fall harder for him.

"Ji," you started. "Thank you for everything."

He looked up and tilted his head. "Why are you thanking me?"

"Because I want to. You've always been there for me, even when I was struggling with my father, and I kick myself everyday for letting him get to you-"

"Y/N, that was a long time ago. Everything's okay now."

"I know, but I'm glad to have you in my life." You smiled and grabbed his hand again. "You're an amazing boyfriend, and an amazing person, so thank you."

He kissed your hand and rubbed the back of it with his thumb. "There is something that I want to give you."

He reached into his blazer and pulled out a box, gently placing it into your palm. You smiled and carefully opened the box, finding a beautiful glass rose inside. There was a small tag that had both of your names on it, and when you moved the box, the rose glimmered, just like your dress did.

"This is beautiful, Ji." You looked up at him. "Thank you so much."

"You're welcome." He smiled. "I didn't get you a real rose, because it would've died. This one will last forever, just like my love and continuous support for you, because I'm never giving up on you. I promise."

The word 'love' coming from his mouth made your cheeks heat up. "Love?"

Since you and Jisung had started dating, which was the night that Jisung had confessed his feelings to you, and yours to him, you had never said 'I love you'. It wasn't because you didn't love him, because you definitely did, you were just scared to say it, in case he couldn't say it back. So, him saying it to you first made your chest swell with the warmth of love.

He nodded, that big, beautiful smile on his face. "I love you, Y/N."

You couldn't imagine life without Jisung; you felt like he truly completed you. The two of you had been through hell and back, along with so many other people, but you wouldn't want to go through that with anyone else.

"Jisung," You smiled. "I love you."
