29 - SF

You share popcorn because he said he already ate but watching a movie isn't complete without one. You were too conscious that there were only the two of you sitting next to each other on your row and the rows behind you only had a few people. You've never watched a movie with Yoongi before, so this is a first for the two of you. Being next to him, just relaxing and laughing at the funny scenes made you feel warm and fuzzy. Your hands would occasionally touch whenever you'd take some popcorn, but he kept his promise he won't do anything without your permission. It nearly drove you crazy. 

You don't forget to ask if he's feeling tired, but he'd shakes his head and tells you he's enjoying the movie. Both of you decide to leave after everyone has left. Your conversation as your walk towards your car goes around what happened in the movie. Since there was going to be a sequel, you have your own guesses about what will happen. His comprehension in English has advanced since there were no subtitles in the movie and yet he still understood everything. 

He texts Sungha as soon as you drive back to the hotel.

"Thank you for agreeing to come with me even if you're tired." He tells you.

You scoff at him. "My tiredness is nothing compared to what you must be feeling right now."

He shakes his head. "I'm ok, considering I get to be with you, just the two of us. I wish we can do this often." You simply smile at him in response. 

"There are a lot of things I wish we can do but I know your heart isn't into it." He tells you. Your hand on the wheel tightens as you feel something inside you stir at his words. A lot of things are making you draw back.

You arrive at the hotel, and you head straight towards the basement parking where Sungha will be meeting Yoongi. You see the other man already waiting, as you got closer to the elevator doors. 

When you stop, you reach for Yoongi's hand. 

"I just want to let you know that I enjoyed being with you tonight too." He moves his hand, so your fingers were intertwined. "I also want you to know I've enjoyed your concert and I can't be any prouder of you."

"This concert is for you, Y/N." He tells you softly, his eyes meeting yours.

You don't know what to answer him except for. "Thank you."

He smiles at you. "I don't want to make Hyung wait any longer."

You snap from being lost in his eyes as you start to panic when you realized that Sungha had been waiting by Yoongi's door for a while. You fumble at the door locks.

"Of course." You reply. 

He slowly loosens his hold on your hand as he says goodnight. When he opens the door, you apologize to Sungha who grins at you. 

Yoongi calls you as soon as you got home. He just wanted to make sure you got back safely. You hang up quickly because his voice sounds tired.

*************************

You travel to San Francisco for the next leg of the concert. You're excited about this trip because you'll get a chance to see your Aunt Beth. She moved here four years ago after she got married. Although she was in her late forties, she gave birth to a healthy baby boy, Zack. You can't wait to see him again.

David already knows you're spending three days with your aunt, and he doesn't mind since even he has his own place to go to. Yoongi got confused when you told him you were excited to see Zack during your video call.

"Who is he? Isn't your fiancée's name Dylan?" He asks you.

You can't help but tease him a little. "Yes, but he is the boy I love the best, Zack." He scowls at you in confusion.

You pull out his picture from your phone and showed it to him. "This is Zack." 

He laughed as he sees your brown-haired, and green-eyed nephew.

"I thought there were three of us after your heart." He tells you. 

You shake your head in response. "Oh, Zack already has my heart." You answer. 

"It used to be mine." He replies with a small smile. 

You feel a tug in your chest. "It used to be." You agree quietly. 

"I'll do my best to get it back." He tells you and you have no words to answer him with.

*******************

"Auntie, Auntie." Zack cries as he jumps into your arms. He is technically your cousin but because there's a big age gap between the two of you, your Aunt Beth thought it's best if he calls you Auntie instead. He tilts his head as he looks at you. "Auntie Y/N?"

You chuckle in response. He knows how to tell you apart from your sister, he checks your eye color first. "Aren't you a smart little guy?" You tell him as you tickle his tummy. He squeals and wraps his short arms around your neck before kissing your cheek. He then steps away and asked his mom if he can open the present, you gave him. When Aunt Beth nods her head, he claps his hands as he runs to the other room.

Aunt Beth hugs you. "You look great honey. It seems like this engagement of yours is doing well." She sees you flinch, and she looks at you at arm's length. "What was that?"

You sit on the couch. "I came here to ask for your best advice for me. Things were ok until I got to work with Yoongi on his concert."

Aunt Beth raises a hand and scratches her head. "I thought you were working with Agust D. Who is this, Yoongi?"

"That's Agust D's real name." You explain.

"Oh ok, interesting I heard that name again. Is it a common name in South Korea? Wasn't that the name of that boy, from, before?" Aunt Beth hesitated with her question.

You smile at her. "He is that boy from before Aunt Beth."

Your Aunt scowls. "Oh? OH! That's him? Wow, he made it big after all. I bet that's a slap to Eun-Sil's face." She chuckles. She turns serious again and continues to ask you. "So, this is why you are confused about your engagement with Dylan?"

You bow your head and nod. You recount to her everything that happened, she listens and watched your face as you did. "You obviously still love him, don't you?"

You shake your head. "I don't know! I also love Dylan. How is it even possible that I feel this way for two men?"

Aunt Beth shakes her head. "I don't know dear. Let me ask you this though, what's going to happen if you choose this Yoongi, and he leaves the States? His life is more complicated than it used to be. He has a career that he needs to think about. Do you think your relationship will work especially when he can't really announce his relationship? What happens if he has to make a choice between you and his career?"

You have been thinking about that too. You never got to ask Yoongi about his plans because you don't want him to know that you're struggling with your feelings for him either. You plan to call Elin and ask how she manages with Hobi. But they're both in the same country anyway which makes things less complicated. Not to forget the fact that Elin is not engaged to anyone else and had given her heart to only one man.

"Just be careful Y/N, you've been hurt before, and I do not want you to go through that again. I am intrigued by this Yoongi, I'd like to meet him. Dylan is a fine man. I want to see why you can't move on from this Yoongi." Aunt Beth tells you.

You mention it to Yoongi and he agrees to meet her right away. He said he'd like to meet her and personally apologize for what you had to go through before. The first time he met your Dad was a disaster. But things went well with Kylee and Aunt Beth is a nice person, you know she'd treat him well. With the same worry that Yoongi might be seen by people with you and Aunt Beth, he visits her house for lunch. He brought Korean treats for Aunt Beth and a set of toys for Zack. Sungha drove him to your aunts' house and will be picking him up after. 

Aunt Beths' husband is a pilot for a commercial airline so he's not home most of the time. You help her in preparing lunch and in setting the table. Yoongi volunteers to help but your aunt told him to sit back since he's a guest. He goes to play with Zack instead. 

"I can see why you're crazy for this guy, good looking and very kind. He's down to earth and he doesn't bring his star attitude with him, which earns him a point from me. But the fact still remains that he hurt you badly before." She tells you. She hears Zack laughing over what Yoongi must've said to him. "And he likes kids too? Inter-est-ing." She says in her 'Aunt Beth' accent. 

You eat lunch and your aunt asks Yoongi a lot of questions, it made you feel embarrassed so she shoos you away so she could talk with him privately. You take Zack to his room so you can play with him there and not eavesdrop on whatever they'll be talking about. You want to tell your aunt he needs an interpreter but even Yoongi insists that he's fine.

You get surprised when you see Yoongi standing at the door later on, watching you play with your cousin. 

"How long have you been standing there?" You ask him.

He grins at you. "A while. I didn't want to interrupt you with your drama." He teases. 

You and Zach were playing with the action figure toys that you and Yoongi gave him. Yoongi asked you what your cousin likes, and even if you told him not to bother, he insisted that he can't go empty-handed. You told him what you gave him and the characters he's still missing. He comes and tells you he would've bought the entire set if only they were available. 

Zack gives you Black Widow, Captain Marvel, and Hulk while he is Spiderman, Iron Man, and Captain America. You were pretending to be fighting off bad guys. You were making up dialogues with the little guy, changing your voice as you switch your character. You throw Thor, Groot, and Black Panther at him.

"Come and join us then." You smile at him.

He sits on the floor next to you. Zack looks up at him with a huge smile. 

"Uncle Yoongi!"

You raise an eyebrow at him. "Really? Uncle Yoongi?"

"There's no way would I let a toddler call me Yoongi." He answers back.

"What are you two saying?" Zack asks since you were talking in Korean. 

Yoongi smiles at him and raises Groot in front of the boy. "I am Groot." He says in the best voice impersonation he can get. You and your cousin exchanged looks before erupting into a laugh. Yoongi joins you and ends up coughing.

You stop to watch him with concern. "That cough doesn't sound good."

He shakes his head. "I have been feeling a tickle in my throat when I woke up this morning."

You cluck your tongue at him. "You should've told me that earlier then, I wouldn't have let you go here."

"That's the thing, I want to come here." He answers his eyes meeting yours.
