Hoseok smiled so brightly that you couldn't help but smile back. What were you going to do with him? He was overjoyed to see you, obviously, and you were overjoyed to see him as well, not so obvious... Hoseok tilted his head to the side and waved at your sister that was staring at him in awe.

"No way... You know one of the seven princes?!" She exclaimed and grabbed you in a tight grip.

They have other names? You pondered.

"Yeah, this is Hoseok." You introduced her.

"Hi~!" He smiled cheerily.

"This is-" You started to introduce your sister, but her eagerness got the best of you.

"My name is Mina!" She smiled brightly and held out a hand to shake.

He smiled and gave you a chuckling look before shaking her hand politely. Mina squealed a little and smiled at you.

"I'll leave you to talk with my future brother in law!" She giggled an ran into the house before you could knowingly hit her.

"YAH!" You yelled at her retreating figure. You nervously turned back to Hoseok and gave an apologetic grin, "Sorry about her... She likes to say things that she shouldn't." You mumbled.

Hoseok was still in a bit of shock upon hearing that he was going to be Mina's brother in law. His heart was pounding harshly and he didn't know what he was going to do! He hadn't even asked you to be his girlfriend and marriage was already being brought up!

What? That means if I ask to marry her... She'll say yes?!?! SCORE! His inner voice cheered.

You waved a hand in front of his face, "Hoseok? Are you listening to me?" You asked softly.

He turned to you with a smile, "It's alright!" He waved it off.

You nodded softly and suddenly a loud thump from inside made you jump. Hoseok jumped as well and grabbed you around the waist, pulling you behind him. Being honest he didn't intend to grab you like that, he just got so scared that it sort of came on instinct to protect the one he loved. His hands were around your waist, covering your body with his own. Your hands were placed on his chest in surprise. Your head was in his shoulder and his head was above yours, hovering over you like a shadow. You looked up into his eyes and saw pure shock.

He released you and took a step back in slight surprise, "I-I-I'm sorry!" He apologized quickly.

"It's okay-"

"No, I mean I shouldn't have grabbed you like that! It was kind of rude..." He murmured in embarrassment.

"Hoseok it's fi-"

"I'm really sorry _____, I just didn't-" He kept going.

You grabbed his face in your hands and made him stop talking and face you, "Hoseok... It's okay. It was sweet that you were trying to protect me."

His cheeks became intensely warm under your palms and you couldn't help but smile.

He must be embarrassed, there's no way I'm making him blush. You thought quietly.

I really hope she knows that it's her fault I'm blushing so much! He thought under your sweet gaze.

Mina came walking out and smiled upon seeing your close embrace.

"GET SOME!" She giggled and you immediately turned a pissed gaze her way.

"MINA!!" You yelled and she giggled, skipping over.

She stayed out your reach though.

"Chanyeol oppa is requesting your presence." She curtsied.

"What does he want?" You asked in worry.

"To see his lovely princess's face... Or so he says." Mina smiled.

You furrowed your brows, "For one, he's probably still drunk and two, I'm not his princess, if I'm anyone's I'm Hoseok's." You widened your eyes, that last part not meaning to come out.

"Ahhhh... I see, I'll just go tell oppa you are marrying somebody else." Mina winked at you and scurried into the house.

You turned to Hoseok to see him smiling with a blush.

"Hoseok-ah-" You started but was cut off by his sweet voice.

"You're always going to be my princess." He put a little emphasis on 'my'.

You felt your breath catch and your heart flutter. Hoseok had stolen you with a few words. You stood there in his presence and you wished you could stay there forever, never leaving that spot. Hoseok was your future, and you could feel it in every fiber of your being.
