'Though winter's death has lost its grip, she knows it waits to claim her as its own. Winter waits for in the ground to chill her with the tiny bones.'

They are lying on the just-made bed, and Jin rolls on his side onto his elbow, his hand holding his head up, he faces you, saying, "I can't see how you did this by yourself. Namjoon and I couldn't even do it together." He is surprised that someone with such a petite frame as you could wrangle a fitted sheet onto a king-size mattress.

While using Taehyung as a pillow, Jimin asks, "How did you do this alone?" Jimin, too, is surprised that you could win against a fitted sheet.

You smile, proudly saying, "Girl power."

They burst out laughing. Taehyung's laugh causes Jimin's head to bob up and down on his stomach, causing Jimin to sit up, looking back at Tae and laughing even more. He turns to face you and says, "It's folding fitted sheets that I hate. They always put up a fight and usually win."

Tae agrees with Jimin, saying, "Yeah, I hate folding fitted sheets."

The others nod, all talking amongst themselves about their individual battles fought with folding fitted sheets. You watch them, inwardly laughing at their struggles. Here are seven very physically fit young men losing to fitted sheets.

A smile spreads across your face, and you sigh in contentment for your six brothers and your gentle giant. Namjoon and his bandmates have been the best thing to happen to you. Your hand gently caresses your rounding belly, except for your little one.

Jimin and Taehyung get off the bed, and Tae asks, "Do you feel up to coming with us to the dog park today?" He smiles his cute boxy smile, hoping you will go with them.

They have a secret, and as the days go by, it's getting harder and harder to keep it to themselves. Something special is going to happen today at the dog park, and they want you to come.

You don't want to go out now, not with your hair falling out. You are too embarrassed. But the day is fairly nice out, you should take the opportunity and go. What about my hair

"Please, please? The summer is almost over," begs Taehyung, clasping his hands in front of him, pleading.

The others start asking too when Jungkook comes in. He joins them in trying to convince you to go with them. "Maybe the fresh air would be good for you and the baby," says Jungkook.

"Hana, come out with us," encourages Jimin with his lovely, cute smile as a form of enticement.

You look so sad, and as they see your eyes start to water, they step back, silent, worried that they were pushing too hard to get you to go. Namjoon sits beside you, putting his arm around you, and says, "You don't have to go out if you don't want to, baby. I will stay here with you."

Not wanting him to be housebound just because you don't want to go out makes you feel guilty. You whisper to him, "I would if only my hair hadn't... " You touch your hair very gently. "I would love to go, but I just can't. Not now." Your cheeks slightly blush.

You love going to the dog park with them. Bam has so much fun running and bounding about with his doggie friends, while Tannie wants to snuggle in your lap and give your hands kisses.

Jungkook, overhearing your whispered conversation with Namjoon, runs from the room. "Oh no, did I upset Kooki?" You look up at Namjoon, worried, you know Kooki's empathy for others is high.

Namjoon shakes his head, saying, "He's alright. He's always been tender of heart when it comes to one of us, especially you." Namjoon leans down and kisses the top of your head.

A few minutes later, Jungkook runs back in with one of his bucket hats and proudly says, "Here you go, Noona. You can wear this, and no one will notice. I will wear my other one and Jimin can wear his and... "

Tae excitedly interrupts Jungkook, "We can all wear one! Please come with us, pretty please?" He holds his hands together in supplication that you will go with them.

You take Jungkook's bucket hat, put it on your head, and look in the mirror. You turn from side to side, then you smile. Turning back to them, you say, "Yes, this is perfect. Thank you, Kooki. Let me change clothes, and I will meet you in the living room."

He rewards you with his cute bunny smile. They all leave the room, and a short time later, you and Namjoon meet them in the living room. You lean into Namjoon as he puts his arm around you. You almost cry at the sight. Everyone is wearing a bucket hat.

You laugh out loud, your heart overflowing with love. You hear Bam yip and look over at him. Even Bam has a bucket hat on, but it won't be for very long. He knocks it off with his paws and comes over to you, drawn by your laughter, and dances around you, making you laugh even more.

Namjoon, proud of the others, asks, "Are we ready to go?" You take hold of his arm and nod, and reply with a soft, "Yes."

He smiles down at you and pats your arm, wrapped in his, then says, looking around at the others, "Let's go!"

With chatter and laughter and playful arguing over who rides shotgun, you walk slowly beside your gentle giant.

Taehyung picks up Tannie, and Jungkook puts Bam on his lead. Everyone heads to the SUVs. Jin drives Taehyung, Tannie, Jungkook, and Bam with J Hope. Yoongi drives you, Namjoon, and Jimin to the dog park.

Sitting up front with Yoongi, Jimin looks back at you and says, "I'm so happy you decided to come with us, Noona." The happiness you hear in his voice is also reflected in his eyes.

Holding Namjoon's hand, you smile and tell Jimin, "Me too."

Namjoon leans over and whispers lovingly in your ear, "And me most of all," before kissing you.
