Still at the restaurant...

'Phew!'

"Are you okay, Haneul?" Hoseok squeezed my hand, stopping at the entrance of the dining area to assess me.

"Yes, I'm fine Hobi. It's just a little weird meeting Jin oppa's parents while I'm with you." I shrugged lightly, shaking off the silliness I felt as we entered the restaurant's dining area.

But we didn't continue the conversation, because as soon as I set foot into the main dining area, I felt my heart stop and my jaw dropped to the ground... There wasn't a soul in sight!

Hoseok had booked the entire restaurant!

My third fiance sure loves his privacy!

I need to have a word with him about overspending! He really shouldn't be splurging like this! We have a lot of things to do in future and while I don't doubt he has his finances in order, I feel my fiance shouldn't be spending large amounts of money on such silly things like booking an entire theme park or restaurant!

Sigh... These guys... I love them so much, but I really wonder how I can return the affection on this level. After all, marriage is about a fifty-fifty partnership, right?

Hoseok smiled lovingly at me and brought his lips to my ear, his strong arms wrapped around my waist, which distracted me from my thoughts.

"Baby, I love you so much. You look so beautiful tonight."

I felt a blush creep up my face and ears and turned to place another kiss on his cheek. It was then that I spotted the lipstick mark I'd left earlier, which gave me a sort of primal satisfaction.

However, owing to the fact that we were on a date and one could never be too sure if the press was lurking about, for my fiances were famous lawyers; I reached forward with my hand to wipe the lipstick mark off his cheek.

"I love you too Hobi." I whispered to him, then continued: "You're looking rather dashing tonight. I'm not sure if I'll actually eat, you're distracting me with how attractive you look in this suit!" I grinned at him and kissed the other side of his face, laughing as I wiped the lipstick off again, then, wrapping my arms around him in an embrace I felt myself relax.

Hobi, on the other hand, smirked, probably storing the information away for later use.

He held me with such care. I felt his heart beat against mine as we stood there, in the middle of the restaurant, hugging.

While holding him, I confessed that I was upset that I didn't have a surprise for him.

"I don't have any presents for you. I didn't even get you a ring yet!"
Hobi holds my face in his hands, making me feel a little calmer as he makes me see reason.

"Haneul, my angel, your presence is all I need. We're the ones that are showering you with love this week. There's no need for you to have return gifts or rings. We're asking you to marry us, it's not the other way around Angel. Besides, you've made us such delicious treats! I for one really enjoyed your baking. I finished the entire tin in the hospital - Yoongi hyung found it in my car and brought it up to my hospital room."

"I- I didn't realise that you'd enjoy my baking that much." I blushed. Hobi didn't say anything, instead, a comfortable silence fell between us as he gently guided me towards our table.

I realised that we did briefly discuss this in the meeting I had with them a few days ago at their office. Additionally, I was touched by Yoongi's actions. He knew bringing Hobi the jar I gifted him would cheer him up and encourage him to heal faster.

Was it really just a few days since I met these annoyingly adorable, yet sexy men?

It felt like weeks or even months ago. I think to myself as Hoseok pulled up a chair for me at a table towards the middle of the room.

Hoseok smiled at me as he sat down and signalled for the waiter to approach us.

"We're ready to be served the first course, please proceed."

Within seconds the waiter delivered a soup that looked and smelled delicious, served with croutons on the side. He had wheeled it over on a trolley, serving it hot.
My tummy rumbled at the delicious aroma of the soup, the subtle hints of sauteed onion and with a hint of black pepper made me want to immediately dig in. I eyed the spoon on my right, contemplating table manners versus how hungry I actually felt.

"First course, French onion soup, served with croutons. Bon appetit sir, my lady." The waiter bowed and zipped off, back into the kitchen.

"Bon appetit my Angel." Hobi winked at me, knowing my love for food. I thanked him, silently grateful that he'd been prompt with the meal.

"This is delicious Hobi. I love it! It's the most delicious soup I've ever had." I savoured as I swallowed my food.

And I genuinely meant it. It was really good. Who knew french cuisine could be this delicious? I always imagined it to be full because of their traditional foods usually favouring more subtle flavours.
But this soup is my new favourite!

I love Hoseok!

As if hearing my thoughts, Hoseok smiles at me between spoonfuls of soup and croutons.

"I'm glad you're enjoying it Angel. I've selected everything with you in mind. Though I should admit that I have consulted Jin hyung and Yoongi hyung a little, considering they have already spent time with you."

"That's alright Hobi, I'm sure I would ask them for help when I want to do something for you in future. So I don't mind." And with that I take his hand in mine and run my thumb over his fingers in a soothing, comforting gesture.

"I also have something else to confess." He murmured to me.
"Go ahead Hobi." I said encouragingly.

Hobi looks up from his bowl of soup, straight into my eyes.

"I'm really sorry that I never got to thoroughly enjoy that Rollercoaster ride with you yesterday. So I... I booked us this place instead for tonight. I don't want to lose you Haneul. It may be a little overwhelming for you to have seven husbands, but for so long I've had all the money and fame as a lawyer that almost any man could ever hope for, but I've had no one to share it with. There wasn't anyone for me to share my life with. Now that you're here, Haneul, I want to spend as much time as I can with you." Hobi confessed, his eyes looked sad.

"You're amazing Hobi. I understand and I know how you feel. I actually like spontaneousness and I love you even more for it." I said, squeezing his hand tight reassuringly.

Just then the next course had arrived, Hobi smiling at me, clearly happy that I approved of the meal. It was something I'd always wanted to try, but never got the chance to do so.

Now, the evolution of the use of the French word for the bird the waiter had announced as our main course, was quite humorous considering my current plight. And I'd soon be surrounded by them.

Ahem... I am here to eat dinner and get to know my fiance better. I chanted to myself.

"Le plat principal, Mr. Jung, Miss Kim, Coq au vin. Please enjoy!"

Hobi grinned mischievously at me, knowing what I was thinking.

Gosh I need to get my mind out of the gutter! Hoseok is enjoying this way too much!

Hoseok's POV

Haneul and I talked for a long time before we finally finished our meal, and moved onto the dessert - which I'd picked out with much care as she loved sweet things.

Finally, as the waiter cleared the plates away, I smiled at Haneul, taking her hand in mine as we waited for the dessert to arrive.

Within minutes, Alex, the waiter attending us, had returned.

I'm impressed with his dexterity. And he's a law student. Perhaps I should recruit him as my assistant once he's graduated?

I always scout for new additions to my team. It's how we remain at the forefront of Korea's best lawyers.

Just as Alex placed the plate in front of me, I snapped my attention back to Haneul.

"For dessert Sir, Madame, we have Mille Feuille. Bon appetit." The waiter bowed and retreated to the kitchen.

"I- I hope you like this Angel. It's been something I wanted to try with you. I've been through a long list of French desserts served here and believe me, the choice wasn't easy - half of them were in French! I had to ask Taehyung to help me pronounce them!" I laughed nervously.

I tried my best to ensure that everything went perfectly tonight. It was challenging for me, but I wanted to make it up to Haneul after our previous date.

"Tout est parfait, darling. Really." She assured me, placing a hand over mine. My eyes widened at what Haneul had just called me.

She bent forwards to kiss my cheek, but I couldn't resist kissing her lips again.

I really wish we could stay like this...

~~~♡♡♡~~~

Haneul's POV

I bent forward to kiss his cheek, but Hoseok, the sexy devil that he is, brushed his lips against mine instead.

Hoseok, who had pulled my chair closer to his, snaked his fingers into my hair as he sucked on my bottom lip. Our kiss intensified, heat rolling off us in waves, with Hoseok's intensions clear.

"Let's go home Angel." He whispered into my ear, his voice deep and gravelly.

I wasn't sure what my name was anymore... Hoseok held me in the palm of his hands now, I am nothing but a ball of mochi in his hands. My thoughts are incoherent - all I can think about are his lips on mine and his voice whispering to me.

I'll probably die with the way these guys turn me on so often!

Help?!

Noticing my dazed stare at his lips, my fiance chuckled evily, grabbing my hand.

Alex, the waiter had returned to clear away the table, pretending not to notice my fiance's hand on my waist as he steadied me.

I almost tripped as I rose from my seat - ladies you know what I'm talking about right?

Just as we took a few steps forward, a loud whizzing sound was heard and something flew past my ear.

"Haneul, duck! Quick!" Hobi shouted, pulling me towards him.
I landed with force against his firm chest.

Now isn't the best time to admire his chest, Haneul! I chided myself. But something about he way he'd gripped my wrist and pulled me towards him, his eyes blazing with fury and the possibility of me shot, was just so hot!

"What's going on Hoseok?" I asked my fiance, beginning to feel the fear creep up my spine.

"It could be nothing Angel, but we need to be care- " However, another bullet whizzed past me.
This time it almost grazed my left shoulder. I felt a chill curl up my spine with the realisation of what was happening.

"Duck down!" Hobi shouted, pulling me down with him to hide under a round dinner table, not too far from our spot.

"Stay here, okay my love?" Hoseok patted my cheek and pressed a kiss to my lips, pulling a revolver out from the holster secured on his belt.
"Where are y-?" But he rushed out from under the table, hurriedly covering my location with the black table cloth that covered each dinner table in the restaurant.

I peaked out from under the covers.

But never had I, in my wildest dreams, expected the sight that met my eyes!

Hoseok was pointing a gun at Jimin!
