Kazuya and Jin are still together despite that Kazuya did not move back to their once apartment, reasoning that she’ll only move back when she’s officially his, that’s what makes that place even more special. Jin understood, supporting Kazuya in her decision. Besides things between them didn’t change at all, having wonderful dates, cuddling on the couch in the living room for hours till they had to say goodbye. There were times when Kazuya stayed over at their apartment, those moments were rare.
Not having Kazuya by his side on the bed was just a small price he had to pay. It was as if a part of him was missing, it was lonely. Though only being separated from his girlfriend for the night, Jin thought that those few hours were so long and tormenting. He didn’t want to be apart from her for just the shortest moment, he’d want to be with Kazuya forever.
Therefore Jin decided after doing a lot of thinking and hesitation, to make Kazuya his.
~`~
4 May 2010, Last day concert in Tokyo Dome
KAT-TUN was having their MC when the lights suddenly went off, the crowds screamed. Kazuya was the only one member who panicked, being the one who was oblivious to the plan currently carried out. The other members stayed in silence, letting the youngest member whine about the situation right now.
“Hey, what is this? Why is the light suddenly out? You guys …”
Kazuya stopped when she hears a familiar music being played, the spotlight on Jin, her heart trembles when her boyfriend starts to sing, his beautiful voice touched her deeply. Even if she didn’t know where this was heading, Kazuya’s eyes glittered with tears the moment Jin finished the song, suddenly being reminded her of their bittersweet moments spent together.
“Kazuya.”
The spotlight focuses on Jin and her, surprising Kazuya.
“We’ve been through a lot all these years. I’ve made you smile but at the same time, I’ve made you cry a plenty. I’ve hurt you so much but that didn’t stop you from loving me, and I’m truly thankful. I don’t want to be apart from you anymore, I’d want you to always be with me, in the mornings and at nights, I want you by my side. I want to be with you forever.”
Kazuya held her breathe, realising now where this is probably heading. Her assumption was proved right when Jin knelt in front of her, taking out a black box from his jeans, opening it and showed her the ring inside.
“I want to make more beautiful memories with you. I want to spend the rest of my life time with you therefore Kazuya …” Jin held the box higher, his eyes gazing back at his girlfriend. “Please marry me?”
Unable to control her emotions, the tears that cluttered in Kazuya’s eyes fell freely. For a whole minute, the Dome was filled with silence, all of them anticipating her answer. Once Kazuya had calmed down, she finally looked up, and whispered, “Yes, Jin. I’ll marry you.”
Jin felt relieved, his worry faded away instantly. “Then may I?” He referred to the ring.
Kazuya nodded.
Jin slipped the ring on Kazuya’s finger which fitted her perfectly. He got up and hugged her tightly, his lips curving into one large smile. Kazuya on the other hand bit her lips, the tears of happiness wouldn’t stop flowing as she leaned herself in Jin’s embrace.
“Congratulations to you both!” Koki shouted, the crowd cheered and clapped. The fireworks on stage appeared once again, lighting up the celebration.
“Congratulations!” The other members said simultaneously, sharing the happiness.
Kazuya looked proudly at the ring on her finger, her tears dried as she gazed at Jin happily. Jin who noticed her gaze, wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her closer. Music being played at this moment, it was beautiful.
The couple on this day is officially engaged.
~`~
A press conference was held the next day, informing the media of the good news. The newly engaged couple sat next to one another as they prepared for questions to be posed on them. They were calm and full of smiles all throughout the thirty minutes conference.
“How did you come up with proposing to Kamenashi-san on the last day of concert in Tokyo Dome?”
“Certainly I could have come up with a more romantic propose setting where there’d only be the two of us but I wanted to share this great occasion with the fans, and the members too therefore I decided to propose in Tokyo Dome. I’ve thought about it for a long time, and I’m glad I was given a green light when I informed the idea to the management.”
Jin nodded, putting the microphone down.
“Kamenashi-san, how was your feeling when Akanishi-san proposed to you last night?”
“Naturally I was shocked because I didn’t expect him to propose to me anytime soon furthermore in that venue. But it was really sweet of him to choose Tokyo Dome when we’re having MC to propose. I was touched, thousand of mixed emotions came over me that instant. It was a touching moment for the both of us, definitely.”
Kazuya turned to face Jin who smiled sweetly at her answer.
“Has a wedding date been fixed yet?”
“No, we haven’t. We’ll have to discuss this with our family and decide on a suitable date.” Jin replied.
“Jin just proposed to me last night. It’s still too early to decide on that.” Kazuya smiled.
“Do you want children?”
“Certainly, we both love kids and I would love to bear Jin’s child. Family planning would be on our future lists.” Kazuya smiled shyly at Jin, the man held her hand lovingly underneath the table.
“I want enough children to make a soccer team.” Jin teased causing Kazuya to blush. “I share the same opinion with Kazuya. Let nature takes its course, when we’re ready for kids, we won’t back away from it.”
The couple stood side by side for photograph taking once the conference was over. Kazuya showed her engagement ring and smiled, Jin watching her. They then turned towards the camera, posing one last shot for the media before heading out of the hotel room, guided by their manager.
~`~
Kazuya and Jin sat on the sofa in their apartment while the families from both sides were in the dining area, discussing about the upcoming wedding. Kazuya placed her notebook on the coffee table, shifting to sit next to Jin.
“Jin, when do you think is the appropriate time to hold the wedding?”
“Hmm …” Jin seemed to be in a deep thought before replying, “4 July?”
“I’m sorry, honey. I know you would love to hold our wedding on the same day as your birthday but I don’t think two months is enough to prepare things for the wedding. It’s too short notice.” Kazuya flashed him an apologetic look. “I don’t want us to be rushed into our own wedding. You understand, right?”
“Yeah, I know. I was just suggesting.”
“At least you’ll have me spending time with you on your birthday as your fiancée for the first time ever. I think that’s exciting.” Kazuya held her fiancé’s hand lovingly.
“Now I can’t wait for my birthday …” Jin teased.
“Jin!!!”
“You two lovebirds, shouldn’t you be doing something else?” Jin’s younger brother, Reo, interrupted. “Have you fixed on a date yet? We need to check whether the date you’ve chosen is available, for both the church and the hotel banquet.”
“How about October 24?” Kazuya checked the calendar. “It’s on a Sunday.”
“We’ll go with the date you choose then. Inform us if the date’s available, Reo.”
Reo nodded, heading back towards the dining table. Both the Akanishi and Kamenashi family are working together to make this wedding become a reality. They would be the main supporter behind this great and marvellous event.
~`~
Even if Kazuya and Jin were busy with their work, they would try to find time to discuss their wedding details with their family. The couple simply tell their family what they want and they would settle it for them due to time constraint. Kazuya and Jin were really thankful for their family’s help. If not for them, nothing could be done at all.
“Can we take a look at that one?” Jin pointed towards a pair of wedding band. Once the salesperson placed the rings in front of them, Jin took hold of it and scanned it. “What do you think, Kazuya? They’re beautiful.”
“The design is simple yet elegant. I love it.” Kazuya looked at the ring she’s holding, there’s a diamond studded in the centre. “Should we take this pair, Jin?”
“Yeah, I really love the design too. We can ask for a brand new pair with our sizes, right?”
The salesperson nodded, “It will take two weeks. Please fill in this form with your particulars. If you want the inside of the ring to be engraved with a message, write it here.” He pointed on the form.
Jin took care of it while Kazuya watched.
~`~
The couple had just finished photo shooting for a fashion magazine, the both of them appearing together on the cover page. They bowed, and said their goodbye to the staffs before heading back towards the dressing room. Once they’ve changed into their own clothes, they walked out hand in hand, having had more shoots to attend to, together.
Due to their upcoming wedding, there had been more requests for photo shoots for the couple. It seemed like a promotion for their wedding, being the hot topic in the entertainment business. Wedding of the year, the media had speculated it to be.
“Jin, okaasan says the date we’ve chosen is confirmed. Our family had already booked the church and the hotel banquet on that day. We’ll have to check out that place, there are several things we need to settle ourselves.” Kazuya informed her fiancé, placing back her hand phone in her handbag.
“Alright, we’ll go on Tuesday then. We don’t have anything scheduled on that day, right?”
Kazuya shook her head, “No, it’s our off day.”
“There are so many things to do.” Jin said, taking Kazuya’s hand in his. “But I’m glad you’re with me.”
Kazuya smiled.
~`~
Heavily disguised and without a tinge of make up on their faces, Kazuya and Jin went in and out of several shops, buying the items they needed for their wedding. Jin parked his car in the Hotel’s Car park, the both of them walked together to the entrance.
They both had come to take a look at the hotel’s Banquet arena.
“Wow, this is beautiful.” Kazuya whispered, scanning the entire area. The space in all is big. There’s even a stage, just like they’ve wanted. The couple would be sitting on the stage, overlooking the guests below them.
“You like it?” Jin asked.
“I love it, Jin.” Kazuya flashed Jin a warm smile. “This is going to be great.”
“It sure will.” Jin hugged Kazuya from behind, sharing the same smile as her.
~`~
Jin pointed his hand to a Purikura machine, his eyes beaming with excitement. The couple were having another date together, happy to have the same off day. Kazuya’s eyes widened at Jin’s suggestion, they had not taken Purikura’s for ages! Without even waiting for her response, Jin dragged Kazuya into the machine. He was about to take out some coins from his wallet when Kazuya stopped him.
“Jin, why the sudden urge to take purikuras?”
“It’d be fun! Besides it’s been so long since we’ve taken purikuras together. You don’t mind, right?”
“I don’t. Let’s take them!”
Getting Kazuya’s agreement, Jin placed the correct amount of coins inside, both were ready to pose.
Jin embraced Kazuya from behind, the both of them full of smile.
Both of them faced the camera, making funny expressions.
Kazuya closed her eyes as Jin inched closer for a kiss.
Kazuya kissed Jin on the lips.
The couple stood side by side, Jin kissed Kazuya on the cheeks while she smiled shyly.
“That was indeed fun.” Jin said when they walked over to the screen to decorate their pictures. He took the pen and started choosing, Kazuya followed him. “This is fun too! We should do this more often!” He giggled.
Kazuya smiled at Jin’s childish side, acting like a high school student. Nevertheless that is a part of Jin she truly loves, for being who he really is. She shook her head, returning her gaze back to the screen.
~`~
Jin celebrated his 26th birthday with his family and friends, a party conducted by Kazuya. She was the one who gathered everyone, specially baked a cake for him, as well as prepared the food and drinks. Jin’s friends were responsible for making Jin stay out of his home for the whole afternoon while Kazuya and her close friends busied themselves with the preparations.
Jin blows out all of the candles, receiving claps when he was done.
“Happy birthday!” He was greeted instantly. Kazuya kissed him on the cheeks giving the guests an opportunity to tease the birthday boy causing him to blush a little.
“Happy birthday, Jin.” Kazuya said.
“Thank you, Kazu.”
“Give Kazuya a kiss on the lips!” Someone shouted.
“Eh, but all of you are here! It’s embarrassing!” Jin waved his hands exasperatedly.
“You would have to kiss her on the aisle anyway, in front of hundreds of guests. What’s the difference?” Ryo said, crossing his arms.
“Yeah, take it as a practice.” Yamapi suggested.
Jin gulped when the guests chanted for him to kiss his fiancée. He did, giving Kazuya a short yet passionate kiss. The crowd cheered soon after. Kazuya signalled Jin to cut his cake. He smiled for the cameras as he cut it.
The party went on until midnight, the birthday boy having a great time of his moment.
~`~
Kazuya pressed the doorbell of their apartment, waiting patiently for Jin to answer the door. There was just a week left till their wedding, she decided that it was time for her to move back her things. Jin opened the door, surprised to see Kazuya on the doorstep with two luggage placed on the floor, handbag sling on her shoulder.
“Kazuya, you should have told me. I would have picked you up.” Jin held the handle of the bags and pushed them inside of the house, Kazuya following behind.
“It’s okay. They’re carry-on bags, Jin.” She sat down on the sofa.
“So you’re going to move back today?” Jin asked, sitting next to his fiancée, his expression hopeful.
“Yeah, I might as well. There are lots of things to be done this week. It’s easier if I sleepover.” Seeing the happy expression on Jin’s face, she added, “I’ll have to head back to my family’s home the night before our wedding though. Preparations for me will be done there while you’ll be here with the guys and your family on Sunday morning.”
“That’s alright. I think I can manage not having you by my side for one night.” Jin embraced Kazuya. “You’ll be mine the next day anyway, and I can see you every single day.”
“Silly.” Kazuya hit Jin’s thigh gently.
“I know I’m going to be a nerve wreck on our wedding day but I’m anticipating for that day to come. It’s a moment I’ve been waiting for.” Jin expressed.
“Me too.” Kazuya leaned against Jin’s shoulder, and closed her eyes.
~`~
A small bachelor’s party was held for Jin the night before the wedding. Even with his friends joking around with him, he felt that the party was missing something or rather someone. Jin stared at the drink he was holding and sighed restlessly, not having the mood.
“We know this would happen.” Yamapi sat next to his best friend. “So we’ve prepared a surprise for you.”
“A surprise?”
The doorbell rang that instant, revealing Kazuya. Yamapi grinned when Jin jumped from his seat and rushed towards his fiancée. “Kazuya!!! You’re here!”
“Yeah, Pi persuaded me to come. I’ll be here for only an hour though.”
“That’s more than enough.” Jin pulled Kazuya to his chest, embracing her lovingly. “I’ve missed you so much, Kazu …”
“We’ve just seen each other a couple of hours ago, Jin.” Kazuya chuckled.
“I know but still, I missed you so much. Tonight I’m going to be so lonely without you.”
Kazuya simply smiled hearing Jin whined, understanding his feelings so well because honestly, it was the same for her too. They both can’t bear to part with one another even if it’s just for a few hours. They’re totally inseparable.
~`~
“I pronounce you husband and wife. You may now kiss the bride.”
Kazuya bit her lips, smiling at her husband shyly, her eyes cluttered with tears, suddenly feeling emotional and touched at this moment. She let Jin take the initiative to kiss her, her eyes closed as she returned the kiss. They both gazed at each other lovingly once they broke apart. A cheer was heard instantly, sharing their happiness.
They held hands and walked out of the church together, into the white car awaiting them.
~`~
The banquet was held soon after they’ve exchanged their vows, the guests mainly consists of the newly-wed’s family, friends and an exception to one media that is allowed to take coverage of this event. It started with the video presentation of the couple, followed by a speech by the groom’s father. There would be a special surprise for the guests.
“Now it’s time for the bride to sing a song. Kazuya, please do the honours.” Yamapi announced.
Kazuya nodded, taking the microphone from her friend, and started to sing Kizuna. The guests seemed surprise by this but not for Jin, who smiled and watched his wife dedicating this song to him. His turn came for him to sing Care. Once Jin was done singing, he didn’t head back towards the table instead he remained where he stood.
“I dedicated that song to my precious wife. She’s the reason for the sunshine and happiness in my life. She’s everything to me.” Jin expressed, turning his view to Kazuya. “I’m glad to have met you and be in love with you. Whether it’s today, tomorrow, I will always love you. Let’s share a lifetime of bliss together, forever.”
A tear dropped down Kazuya’s cheeks, feeling touched by Jin’s speech. She gazed up to him, his hand reaching out to her, smiling, she accepted the gesture, letting Jin guide her to the centre of the stage. It was time for the surprise.
“The next song would be sung by one of the most popular groups in Japan.” Jin stopped to grin when the guests seemed excited by his announcement. There was a roar of claps when four men appeared on the stage. “KAT-TUN, singing Love.”
The bride and groom took the centre position, the music soon started, the six of them singing.
~`~
Kazuya turned her view away from the window, gazing at Jin who had just walked out of the bathroom, wearing only boxers. At this moment, she knew she should feel shy but she didn’t, having accustomed to Jin’s presence already.
“You know you would turn me on wearing that sexy night gown.” Jin whispered.
“I should say the same to you.”
Jin immediately rushed towards Kazuya, taking her by surprise when he carried her bridal style, placing her gently on the bed. He was on top of her, gazing at her full of love. Jin brushed Kazuya’s hair lovingly before leaning down to seal a kiss on her lips, his lips moving to other parts of her body as well.
“I’ll be gentle, Kazu. I promise.”
Kazuya nodded, and flashed Jin a smile, “I trust you.”
They made love on the night of their wedding, their first as husband and wife. Jin kissed Kazuya on her forehead who simply smiled tiredly at him in return, her eyes closing. He reached for the blanket and covered their naked forms, lying down next to Kazuya, wrapping an arm around her waist.
“I love you.”
It was a serene image, both of their bodies curved perfectly towards one another’s. They belonged.

Even if she didn’t know where this was heading, Kazuya’s eyes glittered with tears the moment Jin finished the song, suddenly being reminded her of their bittersweet moments spent together.
“Kazuya.”
The spotlight focuses on Jin and her, surprising Kazuya.
“We’ve been through a lot all these years. I’ve made you smile but at the same time, I’ve made you cry a plenty. I’ve hurt you so much but that didn’t stop you from loving me, and I’m truly thankful. I don’t want to be apart from you anymore, I’d want you to always be with me, in the mornings and at nights, I want you by my side. I want to be with you forever.”

Unable to control her emotions, the tears that cluttered in Kazuya’s eyes fell freely. For a whole minute, the Dome was filled with silence, all of them anticipating her answer. Once Kazuya had calmed down, she finally looked up, and whispered, “Yes, Jin. I’ll marry you.”
Jin felt relieved, his worry faded away instantly. “Then may I?” He referred to the ring.
Kazuya nodded.
Jin slipped the ring on Kazuya’s finger which fitted her perfectly. He got up and hugged her tightly, his lips curving into one large smile. Kazuya on the other hand bit her lips, the tears of happiness wouldn’t stop flowing as she leaned herself in Jin’s embrace.
“Congratulations to you both!” Koki shouted, the crowd cheered and clapped. The fireworks on stage appeared once again, lighting up the celebration.

The couple on this day is officially engaged.
~`~
A press conference was held the next day, informing the media of the good news. The newly engaged couple sat next to one another as they prepared for questions to be posed on them. They were calm and full of smiles all throughout the thirty minutes conference.
“How did you come up with proposing to Kamenashi-san on the last day of concert in Tokyo Dome?”
“Certainly I could have come up with a more romantic propose setting where there’d only be the two of us but I wanted to share this great occasion with the fans, and the members too therefore I decided to propose in Tokyo Dome.

“Kamenashi-san, how was your feeling when Akanishi-san proposed to you last night?”
“Naturally I was shocked because I didn’t expect him to propose to me anytime soon furthermore in that venue. But it was really sweet of him to choose Tokyo Dome when we’re having MC to propose. I was touched, thousand of mixed emotions came over me that instant. It was a touching moment for the both of us, definitely.”
Kazuya turned to face Jin who smiled sweetly at her answer.
“Has a wedding date been fixed yet?”
“No, we haven’t. We’ll have to discuss this with our family and decide on a suitable date.” Jin replied.
“Jin just proposed to me last night. It’s still too early to decide on that.” Kazuya smiled.
“Do you want children?”
“Certainly, we both love kids and I would love to bear Jin’s child. Family planning would be on our future lists.” Kazuya smiled shyly at Jin, the man held her hand lovingly underneath the table.
“I want enough children to make a soccer team.” Jin teased causing Kazuya to blush. “I share the same opinion with Kazuya. Let nature takes its course, when we’re ready for kids, we won’t back away from it.”
The couple stood side by side for photograph taking once the conference was over. Kazuya showed her engagement ring and smiled, Jin watching her. They then turned towards the camera, posing one last shot for the media before heading out of the hotel room, guided by their manager.

Kazuya and Jin sat on the sofa in their apartment while the families from both sides were in the dining area, discussing about the upcoming wedding. Kazuya placed her notebook on the coffee table, shifting to sit next to Jin.
“Jin, when do you think is the appropriate time to hold the wedding?”
“Hmm …” Jin seemed to be in a deep thought before replying, “4 July?”
“I’m sorry, honey. I know you would love to hold our wedding on the same day as your birthday but I don’t think two months is enough to prepare things for the wedding. It’s too short notice.” Kazuya flashed him an apologetic look. “I don’t want us to be rushed into our own wedding. You understand, right?”

“How about October 24?” Kazuya checked the calendar. “It’s on a Sunday.”
“We’ll go with the date you choose then. Inform us if the date’s available, Reo.”
Reo nodded, heading back towards the dining table. Both the Akanishi and Kamenashi family are working together to make this wedding become a reality. They would be the main supporter behind this great and marvellous event.

“It sure will.” Jin hugged Kazuya from behind, sharing the same smile as her.

Jin pointed his hand to a Purikura machine, his eyes beaming with excitement. The couple were having another date together, happy to have the same off day. Kazuya’s eyes widened at Jin’s suggestion, they had not taken Purikura’s for ages! Without even waiting for her response, Jin dragged Kazuya into the machine. He was about to take out some coins from his wallet when Kazuya stopped him.
“Jin, why the sudden urge to take purikuras?”
“It’d be fun! Besides it’s been so long since we’ve taken purikuras together. You don’t mind, right?”
“I don’t. Let’s take them!”
Getting Kazuya’s agreement, Jin placed the correct amount of coins inside, both were ready to pose.
Jin embraced Kazuya from behind, the both of them full of smile.
Both of them faced the camera, making funny expressions.
Kazuya closed her eyes as Jin inched closer for a kiss.

Kazuya smiled at Jin’s childish side, acting like a high school student. Nevertheless that is a part of Jin she truly loves, for being who he really is. She shook her head, returning her gaze back to the screen.

Jin celebrated his 26th birthday with his family and friends, a party conducted by Kazuya. She was the one who gathered everyone, specially baked a cake for him, as well as prepared the food and drinks. Jin’s friends were responsible for making Jin stay out of his home for the whole afternoon while Kazuya and her close friends busied themselves with the preparations.
Jin blows out all of the candles, receiving claps when he was done.
“Happy birthday!” He was greeted instantly. Kazuya kissed him on the cheeks giving the guests an opportunity to tease the birthday boy causing him to blush a little.
“Happy birthday, Jin.” Kazuya said.
“Thank you, Kazu.”
“Give Kazuya a kiss on the lips!” Someone shouted.
“Eh, but all of you are here! It’s embarrassing!” Jin waved his hands exasperatedly.
“You would have to kiss her on the aisle anyway, in front of hundreds of guests. What’s the difference?” Ryo said, crossing his arms.
“Yeah, take it as a practice.” Yamapi suggested.
Jin gulped when the guests chanted for him to kiss his fiancée. He did, giving Kazuya a short yet passionate kiss. The crowd cheered soon after. Kazuya signalled Jin to cut his cake. He smiled for the cameras as he cut it.
The party went on until midnight, the birthday boy having a great time of his moment.

Kazuya pressed the doorbell of their apartment, waiting patiently for Jin to answer the door. There was just a week left till their wedding, she decided that it was time for her to move back her things. Jin opened the door, surprised to see Kazuya on the doorstep with two luggage placed on the floor, handbag sling on her shoulder.
“Kazuya, you should have told me. I would have picked you up.” Jin held the handle of the bags and pushed them inside of the house, Kazuya following behind.
“It’s okay. They’re carry-on bags, Jin.” She sat down on the sofa.
“So you’re going to move back today?” Jin asked, sitting next to his fiancée, his expression hopeful.
“Yeah, I might as well. There are lots of things to be done this week. It’s easier if I sleepover.” Seeing the happy expression on Jin’s face, she added, “I’ll have to head back to my family’s home the night before our wedding though. Preparations for me will be done there while you’ll be here with the guys and your family on Sunday morning.”
“That’s alright. I think I can manage not having you by my side for one night.” Jin embraced Kazuya. “You’ll be mine the next day anyway, and I can see you every single day.”
“Silly.” Kazuya hit Jin’s thigh gently.
“I know I’m going to be a nerve wreck on our wedding day but I’m anticipating for that day to come. It’s a moment I’ve been waiting for.” Jin expressed.
“Me too.” Kazuya leaned against Jin’s shoulder, and closed her eyes.

A small bachelor’s party was held for Jin the night before the wedding. Even with his friends joking around with him, he felt that the party was missing something or rather someone. Jin stared at the drink he was holding and sighed restlessly, not having the mood.
“We know this would happen.” Yamapi sat next to his best friend. “So we’ve prepared a surprise for you.”
“A surprise?”
The doorbell rang that instant, revealing Kazuya. Yamapi grinned when Jin jumped from his seat and rushed towards his fiancée. “Kazuya!!! You’re here!”
“Yeah, Pi persuaded me to come. I’ll be here for only an hour though.”
“That’s more than enough.” Jin pulled Kazuya to his chest, embracing her lovingly. “I’ve missed you so much, Kazu …”
“We’ve just seen each other a couple of hours ago, Jin.” Kazuya chuckled.
“I know but still, I missed you so much. Tonight I’m going to be so lonely without you.”
Kazuya simply smiled hearing Jin whined, understanding his feelings so well because honestly, it was the same for her too. They both can’t bear to part with one another even if it’s just for a few hours. They’re totally inseparable.

“I pronounce you husband and wife. You may now kiss the bride.”
Kazuya bit her lips, smiling at her husband shyly, her eyes cluttered with tears, suddenly feeling emotional and touched at this moment. She let Jin take the initiative to kiss her, her eyes closed as she returned the kiss. They both gazed at each other lovingly once they broke apart. A cheer was heard instantly, sharing their happiness.
They held hands and walked out of the church together, into the white car awaiting them.

The banquet was held soon after they’ve exchanged their vows, the guests mainly consists of the newly-wed’s family, friends and an exception to one media that is allowed to take coverage of this event. It started with the video presentation of the couple, followed by a speech by the groom’s father. There would be a special surprise for the guests.
“Now it’s time for the bride to sing a song. Kazuya, please do the honours.” Yamapi announced.
Kazuya nodded, taking the microphone from her friend, and started to sing Kizuna. The guests seemed surprise by this but not for Jin, who smiled and watched his wife dedicating this song to him. His turn came for him to sing Care. Once Jin was done singing, he didn’t head back towards the table instead he remained where he stood.
“I dedicated that song to my precious wife. She’s the reason for the sunshine and happiness in my life. She’s everything to me.” Jin expressed, turning his view to Kazuya. “I’m glad to have met you and be in love with you. Whether it’s today, tomorrow, I will always love you. Let’s share a lifetime of bliss together, forever.”
A tear dropped down Kazuya’s cheeks, feeling touched by Jin’s speech. She gazed up to him, his hand reaching out to her, smiling, she accepted the gesture, letting Jin guide her to the centre of the stage. It was time for the surprise.
“The next song would be sung by one of the most popular groups in Japan.” Jin stopped to grin when the guests seemed excited by his announcement. There was a roar of claps when four men appeared on the stage. “KAT-TUN, singing Love.”
The bride and groom took the centre position, the music soon started, the six of them singing.

Kazuya turned her view away from the window, gazing at Jin who had just walked out of the bathroom, wearing only boxers. At this moment, she knew she should feel shy but she didn’t, having accustomed to Jin’s presence already.
“You know you would turn me on wearing that sexy night gown.” Jin whispered.
“I should say the same to you.”
Jin immediately rushed towards Kazuya, taking her by surprise when he carried her bridal style, placing her gently on the bed. He was on top of her, gazing at her full of love. Jin brushed Kazuya’s hair lovingly before leaning down to seal a kiss on her lips, his lips moving to other parts of her body as well.
“I’ll be gentle, Kazu. I promise.”
Kazuya nodded, and flashed Jin a smile, “I trust you.”
They made love on the night of their wedding, their first as husband and wife. Jin kissed Kazuya on her forehead who simply smiled tiredly at him in return, her eyes closing. He reached for the blanket and covered their naked forms, lying down next to Kazuya, wrapping an arm around her waist.
“I love you.”
It was a serene image, both of their bodies curved perfectly towards one another’s. They belonged.

Author’s Note: Akame baby will appear in the sequel so don’t worry! It’s not appropriate to include the baby here in the epilogue. I really like how it ended. Hope the epilogue is as fluffy and sweet as you all wanted it to be! I’ll write the sequel soon. I just need a favour from you readers. Please think of a title for the sequel! The sequel is estimated to be four chapters, and it is about Akame’s marriage life, and the baby! Hmm, what should I name the baby? What do you think of Akanishi Ryu? Any other suggestions are welcome!!! ^^
