I wake up with my back flush against Taehyung’s chest. His arms wrapped around my stomach, and a leg is draped over my own. Something hard is pushed up against my butt.

“Taehyung, let go of me,” I wiggle around in his grasp.

“Ah,” Taehyung moans out.

“Whoa,” I stop my movement, my face heating up. It is too early for this. Too damn early.

“Jagi,” Taehyung’s morning voice wakes me up fully.

“Tae, we have a problem. Well, you have a problem.”

“What? Nothing is wrong,” he kisses my jaw.

“Yes, there is,” I wiggle around to prove my point.

“Oh,” Taehyung tires to hold back a moan and fails.

“I’m dying of embarrassment, but I can’t help but like those sounds. Gah, why did I say that?”

“Shut up,” he grumbles. “This happens sometimes. I just need to pee.”

“Oh, so your, thing is what is hard,” I choke out, wanting to disappear.

“Yes, my dick is hard. Partly because of you being all up on me.”

“Then let me scoot away.”

“No,” he whines.

“Yes, Taehyung, go pee and then come back.”

“Fine,” he groans, releasing me and jumping out of bed. “Don’t look, I’ll be right back.”

I accidently catch a glance as Taehyung rushes out of his room, causing my cheeks to heat up even more.

I take a few deep breaths and then chuckle, sitting up in his bed and looking around the room.

Clothes are scattered across the floor; a desk is cluttered with papers, books, and a laptop. Some stuffed animals are over in a corner. The sun is trying its hardest to shine through the closed curtains. I can’t believe that last night a terrible storm was blowing through, and now it is a peaceful morning.

“Problem solved,” Taehyung walks back into his room, clothes in his arms. “These are yours, by the way.” He places the clothes on the end of his bed. “It’s actually late morning, so you should probably get ready.”

“Man, no more cuddles,” I pout.

“We will cuddle a lot during July,” he walks over to me, kissing just my bottom lip. “Come on, I’ll show you to the bathroom.”

“So demanding,” I giggle, sliding out of his bed.

“I am the man,” he teasingly smirks.

I reach up and ruffle his already mess hair, “Such a cute man. You can’t always tell me what to do, though.”

“I protected you last night,” he lifts me up and throws me over his shoulder. “Did you forget that?”

“Taehyung,” I gasp. “Put me down. How can you carry me?”

“You are light, and I am strong, that’s how. Also, I’m taking you to the bathroom.” His hand gently connects with my butt. “My clothes look amazing on you, if I might add.”

“I can’t believe you right now,” I groan, covering my face with my hands.

“Don’t you want me to be like this sometimes? Or am I mistaken?”

“I mean, yes, but it is so sudden. Just take me to the bathroom.”

Taehyung walks out of his room and heads down the hall.

“Good morning, Yoongi-hyung,” Taehyung happily says.

I pull my hands away from my face. “Yoongi, help me,” I giggle.

“You seem to be in no trouble,” Yoongi walks around to be face-to-face with me. “Little one, did Taehyung protect you?”

“He did. He’s a man, you know?”

Yoongi chuckles, “Sure he is.”

“We have places to be, hyung,” Taehyung says.

“Fine, I’ll let you two go,” Yoongi cups my face with one hand. “You need to get your crazy hair under control.”

“I’ll do my best,” I smile. Yoongi leans in and kisses my cheek, “Have I told how cute you are?”

“Have I told you that you are getting soft around me?”

“Just for you. I can’t help it,” he pulls his hand away from my face. “See you two later,” he nods and walks away.

Taehyung continues to the bathroom, setting me down on the toilet. “I will be back,” he places my clothes on the counter. “Just use my shower things. Middle shelf it mine.”

I nod, “Thank you, Tae.”

“No problem, princess.” He smiles before turning and walking out of the bathroom, shutting the door behind him.

Minutes later I am undressed and in the shower. It feels weird knowing the other boys have probably used this shower. It’s weird to be showering at the dorms at all.

I get over being uncomfortable in a few minutes, singing as if I’m back at Nari’s. I am so into my thoughts I barely register the door opening.

“Lovely singing, jagi,” Taehyung’s voice shocks me and I almost slip.

“Taehyung, what are you doing?” I make sure the shower curtain is closed and the boy on the other side can’t see me.

“Brushing my teeth,” he laughs. “This is my bathroom.”

“I’m naked,” I take a few deep breaths.

“I would hope so, since you are in the shower. Also, I can’t see you. Hey, how about we sing together?”

“No Tae, not like this,” I sigh. “Can you just hurry up so I can get out?”

“Yeah, I will. I just want to spend as much time as possible with you since you won’t be spending the day with us.”

I laugh, “You are so dorky, but that is kind of cute.”

“I try,” he laughs with me.

“Hurry up though, I am turning into a prune in here.”

“Okay, okay, I’m hurrying. I wish I was turning into a prune too.”

“Such a pervert,” I roll my eyes. “Go back to being cute.”

********

“It’ll be like Thanksgiving tomorrow,” I smile as I set up the card table.

“That’s a good way to put it,” Nari smiles as she mixes the brownie batter.

“It’s a going away party, though,” Emily says. “We will miss you Nari.”

“I’ll miss you girls,” Nari glances back at us. “Even if we already talked about it, and I gave you the rules, it doesn’t make it any easier.”

“At least it is just a month,” I push the card table up next to the small dinning room table. Not nine months.”

“Well, you will only be back here a few days after traveling. Then nine months again. I get to comfortable with you here, and I know that I shouldn’t because you leave before I realize it.”

“Oh, yeah,” Emily begins pushing chairs up to our makeshift long table. “I don’t want to leave. The second time, that is.”

“Just one more nine months,” I sigh. “Then we never have to leave here again.”

“Still haven’t told your parents that plan, have you?” Nari asks.

“No,” I answer. “I’m saving that for next year. I’ve only told Yoongi that we are moving over here, actually.”

“That boy is good at keeping secrets.”

“He made Taehyung a jealous boy,” Emily chuckles.

“How?” Nari pours the brownie batter into a pan.

“Tae asked a stupid question, like, if Yoongi kissed me,” I take a seat in one of the chairs Emily has set up around the table. “So, he did, kind of. He kissed the corner of my mouth. Barely on my lips.”

“Ah, in a sibling way,” Nari nods, putting the brownies in the oven. “And Taehyung must have hated that.”

“Yoongi was just teasing him, so I calmed him down,” I sigh. “There was no reason for him to jealous, and he knows it.”

“With kisses, I’m guessing.”

“Yes, a lot,” I giggle.

“How was your sleepover?”

“A lot of fun, actually,” Emily takes a seat in a chair next to me. “I feel ready for the month we get to spend with them.”

“I agree,” I nod. “I feel much more ready for how they are going to be. It was like a trial run to see if the real thing would be good.”

“I know we already went over rules, but please, if possible, call me every night before bed.” Nari walks over and pulls a chair out to sit on.

“Of course,” Emily and I smile.

“This is why you two are the best, and why I trust you to go on this adventure.”

“I can’t wait to go swimming,” I clap a few times. “It will be so fun.”

“Bikini’s all the time,” Emily pats my shoulder.

“Eh, no,” I shake my head. “I also want to spend a lot of time with the maknae line. Park Jimin is such a kind soul.”

“He is,” Nari softly smiles.

“He is very nice to you,” Emily says. “I mean, they all are, but Jimin is different.”

“Yeah, I know what you mean,” I nod. “He’s so cute and loving to the other members. Slowly the same is happening to us.”

“How has Jin been?” Nari asks. “When we get together he focuses on me, but I want to know how he is with you two.”

“He’s good,” I answer. “Seems very happy. In love, you may say.”

“Oh, no,” Nari’s cheeks redden as she looks away. “Love, that’s such a feeling that is so strong and rare.”

“I can see it in his eyes,” I say.

“Yes, that man loves you,” Emily adds.

“Do you love him?”

“I mean, he’s the first person I have been in a serious relationship for a couple years now,” Nari runs a hand through her hair. “I don’t know this feeling. It probably is love, but I don’t know. It is hard to tell.”

“Tell him, he no doubt feels the same,” I smile. “He’s such a sweetheart.”

“Maybe tomorrow.”

“Ah, it will be so cute,” Emily and I giggle.

“Goodness, you two must be able to read minds,” Nari chuckles.

“It does seem like that at times,” Emily says. “We can’t, though.”

“But how cool would that be?” I grin.

“Very cool, Amber,” Emily pats my head.

“I just remembered something about last year.”

“What would that be?” Nari chuckles.

“Where is our dog?”

Nari busts into laughs. “Ah, yes, I remember that.”

“Oh, yeah,” Emily giggles. “That was something Amber asked for last year, but I thought it turned into Tae and her getting a dog.”

“I just like dogs,” I pout. “And so does Tae.”

“You two should totally get a dog together then,” Nari nods.

“He already has a dog, that I want to meet. She, I think, lives with his parents. Soonsim is her name, and I don’t know the breed.”

“If she lives with his parents, then you two will need a dog of your own,” Emily says. “Rescue one or two.”

“You have a point.”

“You can ask him if he wants a dog with you tomorrow,” Nari says.

“So what does Emily have to ask or tell Namjoon?”

“I’ll tell him not to touch anything and I’ll handle all his breakable items,” Emily answers.

“He is very clumsy and breaks things often,” Nari says.

“I am okay with that being what you tell him,” I chuckle. “Also, on an unrelated note, I think the brownies are done.”

********

“This all looks so yummy,” Jungkook smiles as the boys walking into the kitchen-dining room.

“It smells amazing,” Seokjin smiles, giving Nari a kiss.

“Please, everyone grab some food and take a seat,” I smile.

Everyone walks around getting their food and drinks, and then we have to find seats. That takes a little bit more time than any of us would have like, but we figure it out. To my left at the head of the table, is Hoseok, and to my right at the head of the table is Jimin. Seokjin and Nari are across from me, and to their left is Namjoon and Emily. Taehyung is to my right, with Yoongi and Jungkook to my left.

“Thank you girls for making this for us,” Namjoon says.

“It is a nice way to spend a night together,” Yoongi says.

“Food brings people together,” I shove rice and meat into my mouth with chopsticks.

“I agree,” Taehyung follows my lead and shoves food into his mouth.

“We haven’t done something like this since Amber’s birthday last year,” Nari says.

“Oh yeah,” Jungkook says. “We can one up that party this year.”

“I hope so,” I smile.

“I can guarantee it,” Jimin says.

“Anything you guys wan tot ask us?” Emily redirects the conversation.

“Tell us about your families,” Hoseok speaks up.

“That’s actually a good topic,” Nari smiles. “Who shall go first?”

“I can,” Emily says. “Um, I am the oldest of my siblings. I have a younger brother, and two younger sisters. My parents had me out of wedlock, and I am the reason they got married. We have a few cats, and some fish. That’s really it,” she chuckles.

“Oldest, hm?” Namjoon questions. “That’s why you kind of take care of Amber.”

“I take care of myself, thank you,” I sass.

“No, I take care of you,” Taehyung pushes some food into my mouth.

“We all do, in some way,” Jimin says.

“Amber is my best friend, so I do have to take care of her in a way,” Emily smiles. “But she takes care of me too.”

“That’s sweet,” Seokjin says. “Amber, what is your family like?”

“Oh, well, I am the middle child,” I take a sip of my water. “Of five kids. Older brother and sister, and then younger sister and brother, in that order, if that makes sense. Kind of crazy how it all happened. My parents are a bit crazy in that regard. We also have a dog. We have always had a dog, and my younger brother has some lizards. I grew up in such a loving household, and I am thankful that they let me come over here to experience that same kind of love in a different way.”

“That’s good, I’m glad that is has been that way,” Taehyung kisses my cheek.

“We always want to see you two smile,” Jungkook grins.

“And you too, Nari,” Seokjin pops in.

“This is why I am so glad we all met,” I smile, leaning into Taehyung.

“Your turn, Nari,” Hoseok smiles.

“Oh, yes,” Nari giggles. “Well, my parents are happily married, and proud of me and my little sister, Yuna. We have an old family dog and cat that are the best of friends. My dad is a doctor, so I grew up and got most of what I wanted.”

“What does your sister do?” Yoongi asks.

“Oh, Yuna,” Nari smiles, nodding a few times. “She’s a figure skater. She’s won a few times, so I guess she’s pretty good.”

“Wait, are you talking about Yuna Moon?” I ask for clarification.

“The one and only,” she chuckles. “I like to tease her all the time about how she still needs to get better.”

“She is amazing!” I don’t mean to shout, but the excitement is hard to contain.

“Oh, I know her,” Emily joins in. “Amber and I watched the 2014 Winter Olympics and saw her.”

“Wait, that’s your sister?” Jimin is shocked.

“Yes, the Olympic medalist is my sister,” Nari chuckles again. “Gold medal, and I never had a doubt.”

“Her and Yuzuru Hanyu are the cutest,” I smile, sitting up.

“As cute as us?” Taehyung pouts.

“Well, they are really cute,” I poke his cheek.

“I say tie, but you two might edge out because we know you,” Emily chuckles.

“So, Yuna is pretty good at figure skating if she got gold,” Jungkook says.

“South Korea’s best for the modern era, Kookie,” Namjoon answers. “She’s broken many records and won even more competitions.”

“Plus, she’s dating a super cute and talented Japanese boy,” I add. “Which people were never surprised about, but now the media really plays it up. People want them to do couple skates, but they haven’t trained all their lives for that. Reminds me of me, since I am dating a super cute and talented boy.”

“Yeah, I am super cute,” Taehyung grins.

“Where is Yuna now?” Seokjin asks.

“Probably training in Canada or Japan,” Nari shrugs. “Always with Yuzuru, no doubt. Goodness, we don’t talk as much as we used to. Both of us are so busy. I can’t remember the last time I saw her outside of a competition.”

“July task, contact her,” I firmly nod, pointing at my cousin for a few seconds.

“Okay, okay,” Nari chuckles. “I will do that. I promise.”

“It is dessert time now?” Yoongi speaks up.

I giggle, “I think so.”

“Wait,” Emily holds up her hand for a moment. “You two have things to tell your boyfriends,” she points at Nari and then me. “I told Joonie not to hold anything he could break, so spill.”

“Clumsy Namjoon,” Hoseok smirks.

“Shut up,” Namjoon sighs.

“I’ll go first,” I look up at Taehyung. “I want to raise a dog with you.”

“Cute,” Jimin giggles.

Taehyung looks down at me, a loving smile on his face. “I would love to raise a dog with you, jagi. Just more here,” he kisses my nose.

“Yet another reason to move here,” Jungkook says in a sing-song way.

I giggle, turning my gaze to Nari, “Now it is your turn.”

Nari takes a deep breath, looking at Seokjin. “Jinnie, I’ve been thinking a lot about us, and I’ve realized something.”

“What is it?” Seokjin looks at her, sounding a little scared.

“Nothing bad, just how I feel about you. The girls made me realized it. Um, ah, I love you.”

Seokjin smiles so big. “I love you too, Nari. For a while now. I’m so glad they set us up.”

“Cute,” Hoseok giggles.

“I agree,” Emily and I smile.

“Now kiss,” Jimin laughs.

Seokjin gives Nari a quick peck on the lips. “You are so sweet.”

Nari smiles, a pink to her cheeks. “I try.”

“That was nice and all,” Yoongi says. “But can we have dessert now?” I laugh, leaning over into Yoongi. “Yes, we can have dessert. We made brownies, and you can pick your toppings. Hope you are all ready.”
