Chapter 2

The door was opened slightly, soft rap music played in the background it was subtle — emotional. That alone caused the foreign boys cheeks flush.

When Mateo entered his single living apartment, the lights were dim, the warm colors illuminated the walls, making it all quite romantic as he placed his phone and keys down on the coffee table.

He greeted the short torsoed brown and white furred corgi that was half asleep lazily on a small loveseat. And then proceed to walk to his bedroom, finding a grinning Namjoon, the light reflected off his honey skin, his dimples quite visible as well — he was always so handsome to Mateo. The smile was also contagious.

The Italian also noticed a simple spread of food laid out on the bed in a neat order giving room for both males to get comfortable but also not be crowed by a mess of food, the aroma was beautiful.

"Namjoon, what is all this?" Mateo asked quietly, slowly going to sit down, Namjoon adjusted to the sudden weight shift and then chuckled pursing his lips in delight. "It's our date" he stated gesturing his arm out to the food, nearly knocking over a plate in the process.

Mateo laughed softly, leaning over to peck namjoons cheek "it's sweet, I appreciate it. But what was your excuse to leave the dorm? You aren't in trouble, right?" He asked, an eyebrow raised in concern for the others situation. Which Namjoon answered honestly, no hesitation "well," he began "I simply reminded them I need the head space when working on lyrics, the quiet —" he teasingly poked Mateo's side "— the inspiration..."

Mateo nodded, glancing down at Namjoon's hand, specifically his ring finger, grinning when he saw the beautiful band around it — Namjoons wedding ring.

Mateo slowly reached out for namjoons left hand with a soft smile grazing his lips. Mateo gently grasped namjoon's hand bringing it closer to his face, making namjoon lean forward. Mateo slowly ran his thumb across the base of his fingers, stopping at the ring. Mateo slowly lean his head down, bringing namjoon's hand closer to his lips. Mateo place a lingering kiss right above the wedding band. Ever so slowly mateo sat backup, releasing namjoon's hand.

Namjoons had a loving smile on his face. A single tear is running down his face. Right as Mateo sat backup ,Namjoon leaned forward ,softly cups mateos cheek and kissed his worm lips. The Italian was taken by surprise, but kissed back. Mateos slowly made its way up to Namjoon's neck. The korean pulled away, resting his forehead on the other males head, both of their eyes closed.

Namjoon released a breath and quietly whispers " I love you so much. I'm sorry that i haven't been around that much, but i try so hard to make time for you an-" mateo cut off his lover by by giving him kiss. Its was short, but Namjoon could feel all the love that was carried with it. " i don't care about how much time you spend with me. But that i do care about is that your happy, and being an idol, being apart of bts makes you happy. I support that, i support you."mateo expand, eyes still closed, forhes still resting on one another.

Namjoon pulled away, mateo opened his eyes and watched as the korean slipped off the bed and walked around to mateos side. The brown italian stood up, when the korean was close enough , he pulled the Italian into a tight hug. Bringing his face into the crook if Mateos neck, his arms wrapped around matros lower back, and Mateo's arms around his neck.

Namjoon shoulders began to shake and quiet sods could be heard coming from the leader. Mateo instantly took note of this a held him tighter. "I...I just d...don't waste to l...lose you." Namjoon choked out between sods holding onto his husband tighter, afraid that if he let go, that he would disappear from existence.

Hearing this felt like something was squeezing mateos heart. " Namjoon, you will never lose me. I'm with you, till death do we part, remember?" Mateo quoted the there wedding night, feeling the crying idol nod. " i'm with you through thick and thin. Hell i stand with you even when you had grill brush hair and dreads." mateo joked, he smiled when he heard the idol chuckle.

" i'm with you till the end of time, rather you like it or not, your stuck with me." Mateo joked again making Namjoon laugh this time, that wormed mateos heart. Namjoon slowly realest mateo from the tight imbras and drying his tears " This is another reason why i love you, you alway make me feel better, you alway know what to say" Namjoon smiled down at the man he loves, dimples full on display. Mateo reached up and poked his dimple. " we should eat before it all goes to waist." mateo stated and dropped his hand from namjoons face. The korean agreed and climbed on the bed.

The rest of the night was filled with eating, laughing, hugs, and dancing and some kisses here and there. Despite never seeing each other, they still love each one another like they did when they first started dating. And who knows, maybe rin was right and Mateo did get some D, or he gave it.
