Jin & Aramilly's First Meeting (Aramilly POV)

Scared. I'm scared. I don't know these people.... "Daddy!" I run to my father, attaching myself to his leg as I cry. "Don't go!" I wail.

"Honey..." He crouches down to look at me. "You've been to school before." I shake my head.

"Not the same!" I say, hugging him as I cry. He holds me for a few moments. I feel movement, but don't look up. Dad's probably just sitting down. I look up when I hear classroom door close. This isn't my dad... Where'd Daddy go? I wail louder, as the teacher stands up, carrying me with him.

"Shhh... It's okay sweetie, he'll come back soon." The teacher smiles, calmly rubbing my back as I cry. Next thing I know, we're sitting in a quiet area in the classroom, surrounded by stuffies. He adjusts me so I'm sitting in his lap. Everything is quiet for a moment and I start to calm down.

"I'm scared..." I say quietly, still sniffling.

"I know. It'll be okay though. I promise." He smiles. I sit up.

"Pinky promise?" I hold out my pinky, looking at him. He links his pinky with mine.

"Pinky promise." He smiles and I smile back. "I'm Mr. Jin. You're Aramilly, right?"

I nod. "But Daddy calls me Army!!"

"Okay, Army. Do you want to go play with some of the other kids before circle time?"

I shake my head, hugging him. "Still a little scared." I say.

"Alright then." He pauses for a moment, looking at the stuffies. "What's your favorite kind of animal?"

"Hmm..." I think for a moment, then remembering our dog at home. "Puppy!" I smile.

"Do you have a puppy at home?" He asks as he grabs a puppy stuffy. I nod.

"His name's Monnie!" I smile.

"Well then, guess what?" He asks, one of his hands behind his back.

"What?" I ask.

"We have a puppy here too!"

"Really?!" I'm suprised and excited.

"Yup!" He shows me the puppy plushie. "This is Bang, our puppy. He's really nice! Go ahead and pet him."

I reach out and pet the stuffy on it's head. Mr. Jin pretends to be the dog, pretending to have the puppy lick my face. I laugh brightly. "Ti-tickles!" I say as I laugh.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

3 Months Later

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

"Mr. Jin?" I tug on his pant leg, looking up at him worriedly. He sits on the floor to get on my level.

"Yes, Army?" He asks as I climb in his lap.

"Wh- Why isn't Daddy coming?" I ask, tears forming in my eyes. He sighs, looking over at the other teacher who is on the phone.

"We'll know very soon, okay?" He asks, rubbing my back gently. I nod my head, but tear up more. Soon, the other teacher finishes her call and whispers something in Mr. Jin's ear. He nods before looking at me.

"Di-Did Daddy leave me like Mommy did?" I start crying quietly, remembering my nightmare from last night.

"Oh, no no no. Honey, he's okay. Just really busy. He said he'll be back after the weekend is over." He wipes away my tears.

"Bu-but... What about me?" I cry, more tears spilling out.

"Shh. It's okay." He smiles, rubbing my back to calm me down. "One of the teachers can watch you for the weekend. They have kids too, so--"

"No!!" I almost yell at the idea of going home with one of the teachers I don't know.

"Army..." His face softens. "There's no way Daddy can get to you righ--"

"Then I'll go home with you!!" I say firmly.

"Huh?" He pauses for a moment, looking at the other teacher, communicating something through eye contact. He nods and looks at me. "Alright, Little one. You can come with me."

"Yay!!" I cheer, latching onto his neck in a hug. He smiles, carrying me as he stands up.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

2 Days Later

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

"Mr. Jin?" I ask, standing on one of the chairs at his kitchen table, pressing cookie cutters onto the dough.

"Yes, Army?" He responds, while he does the dishes from batter making.

"Did you know that you'd make a good mom?" I say. A moment goes by before he turns the water off and turns to look at me. Not hearing the water anymore, I look over at him curiously. "What?" I ask.

"Did you just call me a mom?" He asks, coming to sit across from me.

"Yeah! You'd make a great mom!" I respond happily.

"Why not a dad?" He asks.

"Hmmm..." I pause to think. "You're really good at cooking and baking and doing hair and yeah!! Daddy can't do any of that stuff, so that means you'd be a mom instead!" I smile.

"Is that a good thing?" He asks, spacing out the cookies on the pan.

"Of course! It's a great thing!" I pause to change the cookie cutter I'm using. "I want you to be my Mommy." I add casually. Mr. Jin almost drops the pan as he puts it in the oven. I look over to see if he's okay. His face is kinda pink as he comes back to sit.

"Aramilly, do you mean that?" He asks, helping me with the cookie cutters. I nod before stopping my activities for a moment, making him look at me. "What's wrong?"

"Actually, I've decided!" I say confidently.

"Decided what?" He asks, smiling at my energy.

"You're my Mom now!" I smile brightly at him. He looks suprised. Hearing no response, my smile falls from my face. "... Is that okay?"

"We'll have to ask your dad, but I'm okay with it." He smiles, eating a spare chocolate chip.

"Yeah!!" I cheer. "You and Daddy need to get married too!" He almost chokes on the chocolate chip.

"What??" He asks, suprised before shaking his head. "One step at a time, okay?" He says and I nod.

--------------------------

As he serves me one of the recently cooled cookies, the doorbell rings. "Daddy?" I ask, looking at my new Mommy for confirmation. He nods.

"Yup. Want to come get the door with me?" He asks, heading towards the door. I look between him and my cookie... Hmm... He laughs, watching this. "Just eat your cookie, I'll let your dad in." He says and I smile, beginning to eat my cookie. Soon, he returns, Daddy following him. I wave from where I'm sitting.

"No hug?" Daddy asks. I hold up my half-eaten cookie in response. Mommy laughs. I smile. Daddy comes over to sit next to me, wiping the melted chocolate off my face with a napkin.

"So, how was your weekend with Mr. Jin?" He asks after I drink some milk.

"Super super good!" I smile brightly. "We watched Disney and did our nails and did each other's hair and made cookies and... and..." I trail off, forgetting something and trying to remember.

"Sounds like you had a great weekend." Daddy ruffles my hair as Mommy packs up some cookies for me to take home. I nod, getting down from the chair as Daddy stands up. I grab Daddy's hand as we walk to the door. Mommy follows us. Daddy thanks Mommy for taking care of me. "Say bye to Mr. Jin, honey." Daddy prompts me. I run towards him and hug his legs. He crouches down to hug me back.

"Bye-bye Mommy!" I say while hugging him. An awkward silence fills the air as Daddy realises what I said.

"Oh, uhh..." Mommy trails off. "She, uh, decided that I'm her mom now. I guess she forgot to tell you." He says, reminding me.

"Oh yeah!" I say, running back over to look up at Daddy. "Daddy, can he be my new Mommy?? He's a great Mommy!!" I ask, with puppy eyes.

"Hmm..." Daddy smiles before chuckling. "As long as it's okay with him." He says, looking at Mommy, who nods.

"Yay!!" I cheer. "Now you two gotta get married!!" I smile brightly. Both of them turn pink in the face while I hold both of their hands, happy that I have two parents again.

Now Open!

Hello, and welcome to The Art Of Family!

This is a blog seperate from my main in order to keep things organized.

I’ve been wanting to write such a fanfiction for a long, long time and thanks to some newfound inspiration and support of several people on this post on my main, I’ve done it!

Aside from the main story, this blog will include everything to do with the ‘characters’- from headcanons, to roleplays, to reactions, and even to blog takeovers! All of this will be linked on my masterlist, which can be found here or through a search of ‘Full Masterlist’.

Now onto what this whole story is;

The Art of Family is a BTS Domestic AU, featuring appearances from other Kpop idols from time to time. The story follows the lives of not only the AU versions of the BTS emmbers, but also two partial OCs- Kim Aramilly and Min Yoona.

The latter is based upon that time that Suga dressed up as a girl, or ‘Yoonji’ as the character was dubbed. I chose Yoona as her name instead because ‘Yoonji’ is just a feminization of ‘Yoongi’, so I wanted to give them at least a slight difference.

The former, Kim Aramilly, who is the base point of view for most stories on this account, does have a strange name, admittedly. As they are RM’s biological child, I’m going to say their biological mother had named them. The basis for this character is evident from their nickname- ‘Army’. Yup, I wanted to make a character that represents the fandom. Unfortunately there’s no way I can make generalizations about the fandom because I can’t know what every ARMY is like. So, Aramilly is based on the ARMY I know the best- myself. I guess you could consider them as a sort of self-insert? But I really hope that all of you can at least find a small peice of them that you can relate to. If you can’t, I’m sorry and I hope you enjoy the story anyways.

As you’ll notice, there’s a lot of differences between how the members are represented here and how they are in reality. Please do not confuse the two. Remember that this is an alternate universe, meaning it doesn’t actually exist. This is supposed to just be a fun story, so please don’t start treating them members as if they’re exactly the same as in this AU.

With that being said, this blog is now open for interaction! Feel free to tag this account in RP starters, send asks, make requests for something for me to write, etc.

I look forward to interacting with you all!

Prolouge

I lower the volume of the TV and change the program to Pororo as soon as I hear a pair of small footsteps come towards the living room. Setting the remote down, I turn to look at my baby brother. "Good morning Jungkookie~" I smile as he sits next to me on the couch, clutching his pink bunny plushie.

"Where is everyone? Did I wake up late for school?" He asks, rubbing his eyes.

"It's Saturday, Kookie." I laugh a little. "Mom and Dad are grocery shopping," I pause to change the way I'm seated, "Or more like Mom's grocery shopping and Dad's lost in the grocery store." I amend as the both of us laugh.

"What about Jiminie and Tae-Tae?" Jungkook asks.

"They're out on a date with Yoongi and Hoseok right now. They'll be back soon though." I say, checking to see if there's any messages on my phone.

"What are we gonna do today, Ara?" Kookie asks after a moment of silence. I smile mischeviously, turning the TV off. He turns all of his attention to me.

"Today, we're gonna work on a super secret mission~" I say, maintaining a mysterious tone. Enthralled, he climbs onto my lap.

"What is it?!" He asks excitedly. "I wanna help!!"

"Hmm..." I pretend to think. "But are you sure you can keep it a secret?"

"Yeah! I promise!" He responds excitedly. "What is it? What is it?!"

"Pinky promise that you'll keep it a secret?" I stick out my pinky, which he locks with his.

"Pinky promise!" He cheers. "Now what?!"

"Okay." I nod, pretending to look around for any witnesses. No one is home besides Jungkook, the dogs, the cat, and I- but I still do it. He giggles, grabbing my head and turning it to look back at him. "We're gonna make a cake."

"Cake?!" He screeches excitedly. "Can I eat it?!"

"Kookie!" I laugh at his excitement. "You can't eat it today, but I'll be sure you get a slice tommorrow."

"But why?" He pouts.

"Because it's for Mom's birthday tommorrow." I say. He tries to get me to break with a puppy dog look still. "... I'll let you add some special ingredients to the batter if you promise to wait?" I amend.

"Yay!!" He cheers, climbing off my lap and running to the kitchen. "Chocolate chips and sprinkles!!" I get up and follow him to the kitchen, laughing under my breath.

----------------------------

"Why in the world are you covered in flour and mixing cake batter?" A certain mint-haired individual asks while he enters the kitchen.

"Gi-Gi!" Jungkook says, getting off the chair and running over to the male- then latching onto his leg.

"That is none of your buisness, Min Yoongi. Or should I call you Mint Yoongi?" I say, while stirring the batter. My orange-haired brother soon makes his way into the kitchen. "Take control of your boyfriend, Jimin. Don't let him barge into the kitchen."

"Sorry, I was in the bathroom." Jimin says with a laugh, standing next to his boyfriend. "But why are you making cake?" I sigh in response.

"Mom's birthday is tommorrow, remember?" I look at him just in time to see the smile on his face become replaced by an 'oh shit' expression.

"Oh yeah. That's why Yoona wanted to stop at the craft store." Yoongi says, gesturing to the staircase to tell me that she's hiding the supplies in my room. Jimin comes over, stealing a bit of the cake batter and eating it.

"This looks more like chocolate chips, sprinkles, and cake batter rather than chocolate chip and sprinkle cake batter." Jimin says.

"Why would there be chocolate chips or sprinkles in a cake anyway?" Yoongi says, also stealing some of the batter to taste. Then, he steals just a little more to give to Jungkook who is still clinging onto his leg.

"It's what Jungkook wanted. After the flour fight, I wasn't going to turn him down." I respond as Yoona finally enters the kitchen. She laughs and tries getting some flour out of my hair before looking around the kitchen.

"Mom and Dad are gonna to kill you." Jimin remarks.

"Not if you help me." I retort.

"We didn't come here to help clean up." Yoongi says, his sister nodding in agreement as she tries to get more flour out of my hair.

"What did you come here for anyways?" I pause, pouring the batter into the pan. "Well, I know why Yoona's here, but what about you too? I thought you two were on a double date with Hoseok and Taehyung."

"We were. Until they started making out." Jimin explains.

"Gross." Both Yoona and I remark at the same time, laughing.

"Exactly." Yoongi says, before finally removing Jungkook from his leg and holding him.

"Well, we'll help anyways before they get home and think we had a part in it." Jimin says with a shrug.

"We?" Yoongi asks as I put the cake in the oven.

"Being Jimin's boyfriend denotes getting into family antics too, brother." Yoona says. "Trust me, I've been through the same conversation with Ara." She finishes, wrapping her arms around my waist and resting her chin on my shoulder from behind.

"Sometimes I wonder if your siblings are weirder, or your dad." I hear Yoongi say to Jimin with a sigh, causing him to laugh while he's getting out cleaning supplies.

"I heard that!" I say, beginning to do the dishes while Yoona gets Jungkook cleaned up. That only makes Jimin laugh harder.

------------------------------------------------

"Okay, Kookie." I say, ready to write in Mom's birthday card for him. "What do you love about Mom?"

"Hmm..." He pauses in making 'presents' with the others to think. "He gives great cuddles and he's really funny!" I start writing with a smile on my face, as Yoona giggles beside me.

"Okay, Jimin, your turn." I look up from the card and to my brother, whose face is full of stickers the Jungkook put on him.

"Why can't I write it?" He whines jokingly.

"Because we want him to be able to read it." Yoongi deadpans, making my girlfriend and I laugh.

"Wow. From my own boyfriend." Jimin holds his hand over his chest, pretending to be offended. Yoona and I just laugh harder. "Pass it over, I'll write neatly this time." He says and I slide the card and pen across the table to him.

We continue joking and making small 'presents' out of craft materials until I hear the oven timer go off. As I walk past the front door and to the kitchen, I hear a loud thud. "Can someone get the door please?" I call out, getting the cake out of the oven. "It's probably Hope and Tae."

"Got it!" I hear Yoona call as she walks to the door.

"Thanks, Sugar Pea!" I respond, closing the oven and setting a timer for the cake to cool before I remove it from the pan. As I head towards the door, I can hear Hoseok making fake vomiting noises from hearing my pet name for my girlfriend. "Oh hush it, Hope. According to Jimin and Yoons, you two were making out earlier." I retort, earning a soft punch on the arm from my best friend. Meanwhile, Taehyung enlists Jimin's help to get Mom's actual presents upstairs to my room.

------------------------------------------------

"Jungkook is out. He must've been real tired." Taehyung says as xe uncerimoniously plops onto xer boyfriend's lap, making the couch dip again.

"Yeah, apparently he and Ara had a flour fight earlier." Jimin says, looking up at Tae from his place next to his boyfriend on the floor.

"Really?" Tae looks at me, laughing under xer breath.

"Yeah. That's why there's chocolate chips and sprinkles in the cake." I respond, gently running my fingers through Yoona's hair as she rests her head on my chest. "I wasn't gonna say no after the flour fight. Besides, I already had flour in places no one needs or wants it."

Hearing this, Hoseok almost chokes on his Sprite and everyone can't stop laughing, including Yoona and myself. Shortly after the laughter subsides, we hear the door open. "Kids~ I'm hom- Oh shit, all of you are here." Dad says as he enters. I laugh, gesturing Yoona to sit up and follow me. As Mom greets everyone, Dad sneakily hands me a bag which I pass to Yoona to bring to my room.

The others soon come join us to help put the groceries away. "Aww, you're all so sweet. You don't really have to help me put the groceries away." Mom says, Dad already gone from the vicinity.

"Oh I can go back to the couch then? Great." Yoongi says, earning a 'same' from his sister and a playful glare from the rest of us while Mom's back is turned.

"Of course we do!" Taehyung responds. "After all, you should be getting ready for your date with Dad in an hour."

"What?" Mom asks in mild shock as the rest of us freeze.

"Goddamnit Tae!" Jimin says, among a chorus of 'ugh's.

"That was Dad's suprise..." I facepalm. "Sorry for ruining it for you two." I apologize on Taehyung's behalf.

"It's okay." Mom responds with a smile. "I'll go get ready then." He pauses to give each of us a hug.

------------------------------------------------

We wait patiently until the car- and Mom and Dad- are out of the neighborhood. Once they're out of sight, I give the signal. A few trips between my room and the living room later, we get started on finishing up preparations for Mom's birthday. "Yoona, Kookie, and I will do the cake. Tae and Hope, you two need to finish the card. And Jimin and Yoongi, you two should do present wrapping." I lead, earning nods and a playful sigh from Yoongi.

Yoona pauses in getting out the supplies for decorating the cake. "Ah fu.....dge." She finishes, remembering Kookie is in the room. "He got the wrong candles."

"What?" I look over, seeing that he got candles that say 'Birthday Boy' instead of 'Happy Birthday.' I sigh, rubbing my temples. "We'll make do." I start opening it in an attempt to make some sort of 'happy birthday' phrase.

------------------------------------------------

"Is Jungkook asleep?" I whisper, earning a small 'yeah' from Hoseok who just came back from checking on him. We're currently hiding behind the couch with the lights off, with the cake on the coffee table and presents on the couch. As we hear the car pull into the driveway, Yoongi lights the candles, slightly flinching- earning a few giggles. We wait with bated breath as the door is unlocked and Mom and Dad enter.

"Hmm? Is everyone asleep?" We hear Mom ask. "Why are the lights--" He's cut off as Taehyung turns on the light and we jump out, yelling 'Surprise!'

"It's past midnight, so it's your birthday now, Mom!" I explain, gesturing to the cake. He smiles brightly, entering the living room and blowing out the candles. We all clap and smile until he adopts a quizzical expression.

"... Why does it say 'Haby Bird?'" He asks, looking around for an answer.

"... I got the wrong candles, didn't I?" Dad interjects, all of us laughing. Once we clear a space for Mom to sit on the couch, the rest of us sit on the floor and I hand him the card.

"Read it all out loud!" Jimin insists as Mom opens it.

"Oh wow, all of you wrote something." He flips through the book-like card. He begins on the first page. "From Kookie:" He begins reading. "Mom, I love you because you give great cuddles and you're really funny." We all smile.

"From Taetae:" He continues. "Mom, I love you because you're very understanding of who I am and very supportive."

"From Jimin:" He reads more. "Mom, I love you because you take great care of us all and inspire us.

"From Hoseok:" He smiles. "Jin, you're the 'fun mom'. I can't wait until you're my mom too!"

"From Yoongi:" He laughs lightly, reading ahead. "Jin, you're cool. Yeah. Happy Birthday."

"From Yoona:" As he's reading, our cat- Gook- comes over and sits on my lap. "Jin, you're a good cook. Keep it up."

"From Aramilly:" I smile at the mention of my name, petting Gook. "Mom, I love you because you've supported me through everything and became a constant in my life when that was what I needed. I love you and my biological mother would be happy to see how well you take care of me."

"From Joon:" He pauses to wipe his eyes, as he's started tearing up. "Honey, I love you because you've helped us- all of us- through some very tough times and remained constant in your love and care for us. You're the best husband anyone could have."

"From... Tannie and Monnie?:" Quite a few of us also start tearing up. "Mom, we love you because you play with us and take us on nice long walks."

"From... Gook?:" Now both of our dogs come over, sniffing at the presents. "Mom, I love you because you meow back at me to talk and give me lots of treats."

He closes the card, wiping at his eyes and smiling. "I love you guys." He says before being mobbed in a hug by all of us- including Yoongi, Yoona, and Hoseok.

"We love you too Mom." I say for everyone. "Happy birthday-- er, Haby Bird." I amend, earning some laughs.
