As Y/N sat quietly on the edge of the bed, her eyes still cloudy with emotions, Taehyung stood and walked over to the wardrobe. He glanced back at her with a soft smile. "I don't think you planned on staying the night, did you?" he said with a gentle laugh, pulling out a few neatly folded clothes.
Y/N blinked, still a bit dazed from their earlier conversation. "I didn't, but... I wasn't really thinking about that," she replied softly, offering him a faint smile.
Taehyung chuckled lightly, his eyes full of warmth and care. "I'm sure Minji won't mind you borrowing something," he added, holding up a soft, oversized sweater. "This should fit you perfectly."
Y/N hesitated for a moment before taking the clothes from him. "Thank you," she said quietly, her fingers brushing against his as she took them. There was a softness in her touch, a silent acknowledgment of the comfort she found in his presence. Taehyung smiled, his gaze lingering on her for just a second longer before he stepped toward the door.
"I'll give you some privacy," he said, his voice light and teasing, but there was something protective in his tone. "I'll be right outside."
Y/N nodded, grateful for the space. As he stepped out of the room, she took a bath in the light of speed and changed quickly into Minji's oversized sweater and leggings, the fabric soft against her skin. When she walked out of the room, Taehyung was waiting just outside the door. He turned to face her, his eyes scanning her from head to toe. A soft whistle escaped his lips.
"Wow," Taehyung said, his voice a mixture of admiration and teasing. "You look even cuter than I imagined in my sister's clothes. You're definitely pulling off the cozy chic look."
Y/N rolled her eyes, a blush creeping onto her cheeks. "It's just your sister's clothes, Taehyung," she muttered, trying to hide the warmth blooming on her face.
But Taehyung only smiled wider, clearly enjoying her flustered state. "And yet, you somehow make them look even better," he said, his eyes gleaming with affection. "You always look good, Y/N."
Y/N felt her heart skip a beat, but she tried to brush it off. "Stop, you're going to make me embarrassed."
Taehyung's smile softened as he reached out, gently taking her hand. "I mean it," he said quietly, his voice serious for a moment. "You're beautiful, Y/N. I'm lucky to be with someone like you."
Y/N's breath caught in her throat at the sincerity in his voice. Before she could respond, Taehyung gestured toward the dining room. "Anyway, let's get to breakfast. I'm sure my family's waiting."
As they walked into the dining room, Taehyung's family was already seated at the table, laughing and chatting amongst themselves. Minji noticed them first and raised an eyebrow with a teasing grin. "Well, look who finally decided to join us," she said, her voice dripping with mischief.
Taehyung's parents exchanged knowing glances as they noticed how close the two were. "Good morning, Y/N," his mom greeted warmly. "Did you sleep well?"
Y/N nodded, feeling a little shy under the attention. "Yes, thank you."
Minji, always the one to stir the pot, couldn't resist. "You two look like you're already a couple. What's going on here, huh?" she asked, her grin widening as she winked at the two of them.
Y/N's cheeks turned a deep shade of red, and she quickly looked down at her plate, wishing she could disappear. But Taehyung didn't seem the least bit fazed. He cleared his throat, the playful smile never leaving his face. "Actually," he said, his voice loud enough for the entire table to hear, "I was going to tell you all anyway... Y/N and I are dating now."
The room fell silent for a brief moment before erupting in cheers, laughter, and teasing remarks.
"It's about time!" Minji exclaimed, clapping her hands together.
"I knew it!" Ji-woo, Taehyung's younger brother, added with a grin. "You guys were practically glued to each other at Christmas's Eve You're a lot more obvious than you think, hyung."
Taehyung's dad gave him an approving nod. "I'm happy for you, son," he said, his voice filled with pride.
Y/N's heart raced as she glanced up, feeling a mix of warmth and nervousness. Taehyung's mom, eyes sparkling with excitement, turned to her with a welcoming smile. "This is wonderful news! Y/N, you've officially become a part of the family now."
Y/N felt her face flush with a mix of embarrassment and something else, something softer and warmer. "Thank you," she murmured, her voice quiet but sincere.
Taehyung, noticing her shyness, reached under the table and gave her hand a reassuring squeeze. "Don't worry about them," he teased, trying to lighten the mood. "They won't bite. Though I can't promise Minji won't embarrass you a little."
Minji shot him a playful glare. "I'm just being supportive," she said with a wink. "She's stuck with us now."
As the teasing continued, Y/N couldn't help but smile. The warmth in the room was undeniable, and for the first time in years, she felt like she truly belonged somewhere. Taehyung's family had welcomed her with open arms, their affection slowly starting to chip away at the walls she had built around herself.
As she glanced at Taehyung, who was laughing along with his siblings, Y/N realized that maybe-just maybe-she could finally begin to imagine a future filled with love, understanding, and people who truly cared for her.
