Everything and everyone was ready. Many guests were present in the halls waiting for the ceremony to start but the restless one was the groom Kim Taehyung standing on the alter waiting for his soon-to-be husband, looking calm as always. Beside him was Yoongi his best man and some distance away from them was a priest.

The moment Taehyung stepped inside the hall and went to the altar. Everyone started gawking at him as the man was looking so handsome that they forgot to look away.

Namjoon, Jin, and Grandma were with guests waiting for their soon-to-be son-in-law's entry. Area was with her Jimin unkie who took her some time ago saying there was a surprise for her.

—

Soft yet elegant music started playing everyone's eyes unknowingly moved toward the entrance of the aisle.

A pretty, scenic, graceful male walked inside slowly taking everyone's breath away. The man was so beautiful that both men and ladies were staring at him without blinking. Their eyes were stuck on the ravishing man.

When the guests were astonished. What do you think the groom must be feeling?

The second Taehyung's eyes fell on the figure walking inside his already fast-beating heart started beating more rapidly like it wanted to come out. His baby was looking so gorgeous that he wanted to hide him from all the other stares they were on him.

Jungkook walked towards the altar holding Hobi's arm he felt everyone staring at him which made him nervous and self-conscious.

Feeling uneasy he looked up, and his eyes fell on Taehyung whose eyes were already busy looking at him but the eye contact with Taehyung made him forget every other stare. A small smile automatically crept on his face which made him look more beautiful than he already was.

Hobi walked Jungkook to the altar and stopped near the groom he slightly held Taehyung's left hand and with the other one he held Jungkook's right one.

Looking at both with a delicate smile on his face he slowly placed Jungkook's hand in Taehyung. "Take care of my brother Tae," He said to Taehyung.

Taehyung with an assuring smile spoke up "I will Hyung".

Patting Jungkook's back lightly with a soft smile Hobi went down and stood near the Grandma.

Feeling the softness of the hand Taehyung held Jungkook's hand a little more tightly.

Jungkook moved a little and stood beside Taehyung still holding hands.

The ceremony started.

After the prayers, the Priest told everyone about the significance of marriage.

"You can take your vows now," The priest said.

Taehyung turned towards Jungkook and with a small smile on his face he started "Bun, Today You have made me the happiest man in the world by deciding to share your life with me. You're everything that I ever dreamed of and everything I will ever need. You are the strength I didn't know I needed and the joy that I didn't know I lacked. Today, I promise you myself completely. I promise to cherish and respect you. I vow to be here with you and for you, forever and always. Thank you so much for coming into my life, Love!" Taehyung said his eyes filled with sincerity, making Jungkook eyes moist.

"Kim Taehyung do you take Jeon Jungkook to be your lawfully wedded husband, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, until death do you part?" The priest asked Taehyung.

"I Do" Taehyung replied looking straight into Jungkook's eyes.

"Mr. Jungkook, Your turn," the first said.

"Hyung, I always feel at home when you are with me, no matter where we are. So today I vow to be a warm home for you as well. I promise to love you for who you are, and for who you are yet to become. I promise to be patient and to remember that all things between us are rooted in love. I take you as mine, knowing and loving all of your strengths and faults, just as I offer myself to you as yours with all of my strengths and faults. I will be there for you in your times of need, just as I know I can turn to you when I need a guiding hand. I Love You Hyungie" Jungkook said looking at Taehyung with soft eyes.

Hearing the younger a smile formed on Taehyung's face.

"Jeon Jungkook do you take Kim Taehyung to be your lawfully wedded husband, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, until death do you part?" The priest asked Jungkook.

"I Do", Jungkook said looking at Taehyung holding so many emotions in his eyes and heart that he was feeling for the elder.

"You can exchange the rings now" The priest spoke up and Jimin came to the altar with rings.

First Taehyung glided the ring onto Jungkook's ring finger later Jungkook did the same.

"I officially announce you both as Husbands, You may kiss now" The priest said.

Taehyung smiled before cupping Jungkook’s face. Their foreheads touched for a moment, sharing a silent conversation of love before Taehyung finally leaned in and kissed him.

The kiss was soft, deep, and filled with every emotion they had held inside their hearts. It was a kiss of love, of promises, of forever.

As they pulled away, the hall erupted into cheers, and Aera clapped excitedly before throwing the remaining flower petals over them.

"The ceremony is com-" The priest was about to complete the sentence when Taehyung interrupted.

"Sorry for interpreting you Father but the ceremony is not completed." Everyone looks at him confused including Jungkook and Priest.

"There is one thing left which is equally important as our wedding." Taehyung added making everyone more confused.

Suddenly the entrance door opened and a melody started playing as well.

Just as the door got open Jimin walked inside holding little angel's hand. The girl was walking with a smile on her face not understanding what actually was happening she was just happy thinking she was going to her Mumma and Dada who were standing on stage. Her Dada smiling at her while her Mumma was looking surprised and confused. Everyone was looking at her but the little one was busy looking at her parents not giving a thought about her surroundings.

Aera came to the altar and ran towards her parents "Mumma... Dada..." she said excitedly. Taehyung kneeled holding her little hands in his ones.

Jungkook was looking at both confused but a soft smile was present there adoring his pretty lips.

"My vows with my Husband are completed but with Daughter are not," Taehyung said looking at Aera with a smile.

The words that left Taehyung's mouth were so prepotent. They made his parents feel proud, forming a smile on their faces same with his Hyungs.

While Jungkook felt his love and respect for Taehyung growing more. Taehyung's words made him feel overwhelmed. He felt the urge to thank god for blessing him with Taehyung as a partner. He never imagined his partner to do something like this let alone a partner he never thought a day like this would come in his life, someone would accept Aera this way but everything changed when Taehyung came into his life bringing so many things with him.

Taehyung was like an essential puzzle piece that both Jungkook and Aera longed for to complete their little world. Because of Taehyung now Jungkook has someone to call Eomma, Appa... has a bestie like Jimin and a another elder brother like Yoongi.

Prist knew who was Aera. He smiled softly and nodded when Taehyung looked at him. He was still kneeling in front of Aera with her hand in his.

He looked at Jimin who was already standing there with a box in his hand. He opened it.

There was a beautiful crown present in the box. No one knew what was inside until Taehyung picked up the diadem with his both hands with a smile on his face.

"Princess, My precious Doll, from today onwards I, your Dada promise you to be there for you always. I promise to support you in every way possible. You can always trust that I will embrace you just as you are, and there is nothing that will stand in the way of my love for you. I will keep my promises to the best of my ability. And above all else, I vow to protect you, care for you, and love you forever." Taehyung said as he placed the crown on Aera's head.

After making Aera wear the crown he took out a small box from his pocket.

Where a chain was kept. He made Aera wear the jewelry with a smile on his face. Aera didn't understand everything Taehyung said but the words "I love you" made her happy.

"I love you too Dada," she said excitedly and hugged Taehyung who hugged her back with a huge smile on his face.

"Now I officially pronounce you as Husbands" Everyone heard Priest saying.

After theat the reception began. The hall was filled with golden lights, soft music, and an atmosphere of pure love. The guests enjoyed the feast, and laughter echoed as everyone celebrated the union of Taehyung, Jungkook, and their little princess, Aera.

But before the dancing could begin, the clinking of a glass echoed through the hall.

Park Jimin, looking as radiant as ever, practically skipped onto the stage with a mischievous glint in his eyes.

“Ahem! Attention, everyone! As the bestest best friend of our groom, it is my privilege—” he placed a hand dramatically over his heart “—to give this speech. And before anyone asks, no, Tae didn’t threaten me to keep it short. But did he threaten me to not embarrass him? Yes. Am I going to listen? Absolutely not.”

Laughter echoed through the hall as Taehyung groaned, already regretting all his life choices that led to befriending Jimin in school.

“Now, I’ve known Taehyung since school,” Jimin continued. “And let me tell you—he was a nerd.”

“Jimin—” Taehyung warned.

“A fashionable nerd,” Jimin corrected, smirking. “He always acted all cool and mysterious, but if you saw him during exams? Panic. Full-blown crisis mode. And don’t even get me started on his tragic love life—oh wait, there was none.”

The guests burst into laughter as Taehyung covered his face.

“But then, one day, this broody, emotionally constipated man met Jungkook. And suddenly—BOOM—our cold prince started melting like ice cream in the sun. Seriously, I have never seen him so whipped. One time, I called him to hang out, and he said—I kid you not—‘Sorry, Jimin, I have to go watch Jungkook eat cake.’"

Jungkook burst out laughing, nodding. “That actually happened.”

“And don’t even get me started on Aera!” Jimin continued. “Our little princess has him wrapped around her tiny fingers. The once terrifying CEO Kim Taehyung? Now spends his mornings making tiny ponytails and watching cartoons.”

Taehyung sighed dramatically. “I knew giving Jimin a mic was a mistake.”

“But all jokes aside," Jimin said, his voice softening, "Tae, you’ve changed in the most beautiful way. You love Jungkook and Aera with your whole heart, and I couldn’t be prouder of you.”

He turned to Jungkook, smiling warmly. “And Kook, you have no idea how grateful I am to you. You made our grumpy Taehyung believe in love again. You filled his world with warmth, and for that, I’ll always be in your debt.”

Jimin sniffled dramatically, then grinned. “And Aera, my little angel, don’t forget—your Uncle Minnie will always buy you whatever your mean parents say no to.”

Aera clapped her hands. “Thank you, Minnie Unkie!”

Jimin grinned. “Now, everyone, raise your glasses—to love, to family, and to our favorite grumpy prince and his sunshine!”

The room lifted their glasses, ready to toast—

“Wait, wait! It’s my turn,” a deep voice interrupted.

All heads turned as Min Yoongi stood up, adjusting his cuffs. Unlike Jimin, Yoongi was a man of few words, but tonight, his usually stoic expression held something softer—something sincere.

“I don’t do speeches,” Yoongi started. “But for Taehyung and Jungkook, I’ll make an exception.”

Taehyung blinked. Jungkook sat up straighter.

“So I met Taehyung in college,” Yoongi started, eyes flickering toward the groom. “He was the quiet guy with way too many books, too little patience, and an alarming amount of death glares for someone so young.”

The room chuckled, and Taehyung sighed.

“But under all that moodiness, he was loyal. A pain in the ass? Yes. But a good guy? Also yes.”

Yoongi’s gaze then shifted to Jungkook. “And you Jungkook—well, you managed to make Taehyung soft.”

Jungkook grinned.

Taehyung coughed into his fist.

“But Jungkook,” Yoongi continued, his voice steady, “Always remember you are not just Taehyung’s other half. You’re my brother too. And I’m saying this only once, so listen carefully—if you ever need anything, whether it’s advice, help, or—” he paused, smirking, “—someone to hide a body—”

Laughter erupted.

Jungkook raised a brow. “Why does you assume I’ll need that kind of help, Hyung?”

Yoongi shrugged. “You’re married to Taehyung now. Anything’s possible, Kook”

Taehyung groaned as the crowd laughed louder.

“But,” Yoongi’s voice softened, “just know you’re not alone. You have a family.”

A quiet wave of emotion settled over the hall, followed by a warm round of applause.

Then, before the moment could settle, another voice rang out.

“Alright, alright! My turn!”

Jung Hoseok stood up, his usual bright energy filling the room. Unlike Jimin’s teasing and Yoongi’s dry wit, Hobi had an infectious warmth, the kind that made everyone smile.

“Now, unlike Jimin and Yoongi, I have actual wisdom to share,” Hobi teased, making Jimin and Yoongi roll their eyes. “Taehyung and I have been friends for years, and I’ve known Jungkook since years too.”

Hobi looked at Taehyung. “Tae, I never thought I’d see the day you actually settled down. But here you are—married to the love of your life, being the best dad, and somehow still making time to be the grumpy perfectionist you’ve always been.”

The room chuckled.

“And Jungkook,” Hobi continued, his voice warm, “I’ve seen you grow from a boy into an incredible man. You’re not just my friend—you are a family. Let me tell you one thing—marriage is a journey, not a destination. There will be ups, there will be downs, but if you both hold onto each other, nothing can break you.”

Jungkook swallowed, his fingers tightening around Taehyung’s.

Hobi smiled. “So, here’s my promise to both of you. I’ll always be here, whether you need advice, a drinking buddy, or just someone to keep Jimin and Yoongi from fighting over who’s the better uncle to Aera.”

Jimin gasped. “Excuse me? It’s obviously me.”

Yoongi rolled his eyes. “Please. She literally called me cool uncle yesterday.”

Aera, happily eating cake, looked up. “You’re all my best uncles!”

The room melted.

Hobi grinned. “Also, if Taehyung ever gets too annoying, just call me—I have years of experience handling his mood swings.”

“Excuse me?” Taehyung protested.

Hobi ignored him before raising his glass. “To Taehyung and Jungkook—to love, to laughter, and to a lifetime of happiness. Cheers!”

Everyone raised their glasses, the room filled with warmth, laughter, and love.

This time, as everyone clinked their glasses, Taehyung and Jungkook shared a look—a look of love, gratitude, and a silent promise that no matter what, they would always have each other.

The rest of the night was filled with laughter, dancing, and endless happiness.

Aera was the star of the reception, running around, making sure everyone knew it was her Dada and Mumma’s wedding. Taehyung and Jungkook danced under the stars, holding each other close, whispering soft ‘I love yous’ between stolen kisses.

And as the night came to an end, Taehyung, Jungkook, and Aera sat together under the sky, watching the fireworks light up the darkness.

Jungkook rested his head on Taehyung’s shoulder, Aera curled up in Taehyung’s lap, sleepily holding onto both of them.

Taehyung kissed the top of her head before whispering, “Welcome to the Kim family, my loves.”

And with that, the stars shined brighter, the winds whispered their blessings, and the universe smiled down at the family that had finally found its way home.
