I sat in Jungkook's car, together with Bono, because we couldn't leave him alone in my apartment. Jungkook convinced me to go with him back to the palace. Considering he had to go everywhere with the bodyguard Namjoon, who was driving the car he insisted that his home was the only place we could actually stay in peace at the moment.

Plus we unfortunately hadn't realized that some residents of the apartment complex had seen prince Jungkook arrive and even though they didn't approach us they did find the time to take pictures of our moment.

It was namjoon who suggested we should at least leave the grass field and go somewhere inside because the press would surely arrive soon. Indeed as I checked my phone I saw messages of Chris with a screenshot indicating we were trending on twitter with pictures of our kiss all over the internet. They were unclear pictures as they were taken from afar but that didn't matter. People would spread them anyways.

My stream of thoughts was interrupted by Jungkook's touch, his soft hand wrapped around mine.

     'What are you thinking about?' he asked in a soft tone.

I smiled and leaned against him, positioning my head on his shoulder.

      'I am happy'

He made a small turn, he lifted my chin to face him and gave me a short kiss.

        'I am glad'

His left arm wrapped around me, his left hand on my shoulder. Even though it was somewhat awkward with Namjoon in the front seat who was probably seeing us in his rearview mirror, at this moment I was so overjoyed I couldn't be bothered.

When we arrived I definitely had an increase in nerves. Jungkook said the king accepted it but it was still very scary.

He reached out his hand for me to take, I took a deep breath and smiled while taking it. Bono followed the both of us inside.

They were already waiting for us, I guess they knew everything about the whereabouts of Jungkook. The person that was missing however was Jungkook's brother Yeonjun.

I wondered why, but I didn't have a long time to think because the king and queen greeted us.

     'Welcome again to our home y/n' the queen said.

     'Yes we are glad you are here' the king added and as I looked at him I could sense the sincerity in his voice and expression. He really did accept me

      'Thank you so much.' I replied, and it had a somewhat double loading, firstly because they welcomed me to their home and secondly and mainly because they accepted me. Even though I was aware that I must not have been the ideal person they would want to see their son with.

       'Would you be able to join us for dinner tonight?' the queen then asked. The idea of a dinner with just them was quite intimidating but then again, if I saw a future with Jungkook I had to get used to the fact his parents were the king and queen of the country.

      'That would be wonderful' I answered with a big smile and in the corner of my eyes I also saw Jungkook smile widely.

      'Uhm I think I will show y/n around the gardens and the palace now' Jungkook suggested.

     'Yes ofcourse, we will see you two later then' the queen answered with a big smile.

As Jungkook suggested we first took a walk with bono in the palace gardens. Besides the fact the garden was beautiful it was also quiet and huge. Everywhere I had gone before there would always be other people but not here.

Afterwards Jungkook showed me around in the palace. We still had some time before dinner so he wanted to show me the place he grew up in. I of course had been here before with the ball but that had been limited to the ballroom and the main hall. There was so much more to this building. It was quite overwhelming actually. All the separate rooms, the next even more impressive than the previous. At some point I lost track of how many rooms there were in total. Then we arrived at a door and Jungkook smiled

     'And this is the most impressive room of all' he said with a chuckle

     'Is it your room?' I asked

      'Exactly'

he opened the door and damn the room was really big. A corner of the room was filled with like this videogame setup. Like a big computer screen and all that. The entire room was so fitting to who he was. Bono already jumped around, for him it was a familiar room.

      'Wo what do you think?' he awkwardly asked

      'I think this room is awesome' I replied with a giggle. He put his arms around my waist pulling me closer.

      'In that case, I'm glad you like it'

He then leaned forwards and we kissed again. we stumbled towards the bed while still making out. he softly laid me down while we continued kissing. He then reached for my trousers but I shook my head and broke the kiss.

      'Not before a dinner with your parents' I panted, to be honest I was turned on and we hadn't slept together since that first time. but it just wasn't the right time.

He pouted 'okay fair enough.'

He laid next to me pulling me closer, and that's how we laid on his huge king-sized bed. Just cuddling and talking.

Dinner time arrived and we entered the dining room. To say it was an impressive room would again be an understatement. this place was just amazing. The king and queen were already seated so me and Jungkook took place on the chairs facing them. Not long after our dinner was served.

       'This looks delicious' I let out while staring at the food. All of them chuckled.

        'Yes our palace's cook has been with us since I was a young boy' the king explained 'I was always a big fan of his food'

       'yeah I can imagine' I replied.

The dinner was really nice, we spoke in a very comfortable way. There were no tensions, no awkward silences. It was as if I was dining with normal parents of my normal boyfriend. Of course this wasn't the case. but still it felt that way and that made me very happy.

We decided it was better that after dinner I went home, but as soon as I arrived I was met with a huge group of people, their flashes blinded my sight and I stood frozen.

This would already be extremely unsettling and overwhelming for a regular person, but considering I had spent my life in the shadows, hardly ever taking pictures of myself, not having people look at me etc it was paralyzing.

     'Y/N, DID YOU COME BACK FROM THE PALACE?'

     'DID THE PRINCE PROPOSE?'

     'TELL US ABOUT YOURSELF'

     'TELL US ABOUT YOUR CUTE DOG'

I tried to find my way through the crowd but it was hard because there were too many reporters, plus the light of the flashes made it hard for me to see. Eventually, without answering questions, I was able to get inside my house. I bent down and hugged Bono, I had never seen him this distressed before, not weird considering what we just had to endure but I felt really bad for him.

     'Hey I am sorry Bono. You want to stay with me tonight?' I asked, but obviously the dog doesn't talk back but I signed to him, he could follow me.

I guess I hadn't got the faintest idea about what I had gotten myself into.
