Chapter 13: Bonds Falling Apart?

J-hope stared into Sofia's eyes with the same amount of love and passion as when he had confessed however, now circumstances had changed. Sofia opened her mouth to speak but quickly closed it as she broke their eye contact. "How are you doing?" J-hope mumbled with dejection as Sofia chewed on her lower lip. Her eyes had already begun watering and who knew if the dam would break, if she looked up at him. "I'm fine, thanks for asking." She muttered before running into the store, dragging Vincent with her.

Mella tenderly gripped J-hope's arm as means of consolation but she knew it would be futile, for he wanted nothing more than Sofia to come back to him.

Jin had finally came in around 3 am as he saw his wife and kid's sleeping figure. A smile graced his face as he took a shower before getting ready for bed. He was shattered with exhaustion and stress from their new complex choreography, wanting nothing than to snuggle up with his loving wife. However, Emily's eyes flitted open right after he eased himself into the bed.

"Jagi?" Jin whispered as Emily frowned, making creases on her forehead and droopy mouth. That Jin hated to see, for all he wanted was to see her smiling always. "You're home late again. Chae Young really missed you." Emily mumbled as a hand went up to caress his cheek. "And I'm worried for your health." Emily confessed as Jin sighed and pulled her tightly against him.

"I know jagi, and I'm sorry. It's just our schedule is suddenly packed so much more and I can't do anything about it, you know?" Jin said sleepily as worry creeped into her head. "We'll talk some more tomorrow. Let's sleep." Emily said with a forced bright voice that Jin was too tired to detect that it was fake. "Hm, I love you Jagi." Jin said contentedly as he drifted into dreamland with Emily in his arms.

Yet, when Emily finally relaxed and fell asleep, his eyes flew open. Jin stared at his wife in adoration, she clearly loves him wholeheartedly and cared a lot about him. Then why can't he seem to be able to get out Bang PD's words out of his head?

"She's only with you for your money. I mean come on, she's a freelance writer. She's practically living as a freeloader off of you. How are you so sure she even loves you?" Bang PD had said tersely and casually that irked Jin throughout the whole day. 'Stop it Jin! She loves you, hadn't she proved it willingly and plenty of times already?' Jin scolded himself as he pulled her tighter against him.

Mella and Yoongi woke up the next day, cuddling and eating snacks in the kitchen as Emily happened to join them. "Em!" Yoongi called out as Emily smiled warmly at them. "Hey guys. Am I interrupting something?" Emily joked as she reached for the package of ground coffee while Mella blushed with a smile.

"Haha you guys are so cute. I can't wait for you two to just get married already!" Emily remarked with excitement as Mella quickly ran to Yoongi's room. Yoongi and Emily chuckled as they continued chatting. "Oh my gosh, you're a grown man and you're still so clumsy." Emily muttered as she wiped his face down.

Yoongi chuckled in embarrassment as he waited for Emily to finish. However, at the same time Jin had woken up and wandered around, looking for Emily. His lack of sleep and their incriminating position had bought out jealousy in him as he grabbed Emily's arm.

"Jin oppa, what are you doing?" "Are you with me just because I have money?" The words had flew out of his mouth in spite and careless, however it was too late to take them back for the damage had been done. "Excuse me?" Emily said sternly and eyes darkened in anger. Yoongi who noticed the tense situation had slipped out,but left a lingering glance at the two.

They were the couple that had lived happily together, as if they made happily ever afters come true, yet there they were arguing and spouting hurtful words. "I-I. Are you with me because of money?" Jin asked once again with annoyance and jealousy still aflame in his mind. "How could you ask me that?" Emily bristled at the question, for he had been there when fans had harassed her with vicious comments that she doesn't love him.

Her hurt expression had brought up the memory of how his fans attacked her, calling her a gold-digger. "Jagi..I-I." Jin stammered as Emily's eyes began to dampen. "Dammit, I messed up badly." Jin muttered to himself as Emily walked off into the living room. "Jagi please, I'm sorry!" Jin called out as he ran to Emily whom ignored him. "I can't believe you even thought of that."

Mella and Yoongi were still sitting in his room, as they were able to hear Jin and Emily's conversation. "Damn, that was a hard jab." Yoongi muttered as he pulled Mella with him. "Yeah, he knew how much Emily had suffered because of the fans. How could he ask her that?" Yoongi's face hardened as the answer came to mind. "Bang PD must have been on his back and constantly muttering about that until Jin hyung finally cracked." Yoongi muttered as he clenched his fist. 'That damn guy is trying to ruin all of us?!'

Jungkook and Teresa were out strolling the park, as a sasaeng tackled Jungkook while Teresa fought to get her off. The fan scratched Teresa's face as Jungkook growled and shoved her off of him with all his might as he cradled Teresa into his arms. "Jagi, oh my god, are you okay?" Jungkook asked worriedly as he observed the scratch marks on her face. Teresa muttered with clenched teeth that she was fine, but Jungkook quickly pulled her with him to the convenience store to clean up the wound.

Teresa didn't know when she had begun crying, but all she felt was comfort from his hug as she pulled him closer. "Jagi, I'm so sorry that I couldn't protect you when you fought so hard to help me." Jungkook murmured with teary eyes as Teresa shook her head and cupped his face. "I'm fine, I won't be going anywhere. I'm your wife whom loves you more than life itself, nothing is going to push me away. Okay?" Teresa assured him as Jungkook nodded while tears had furiously rolled down his cheeks.

"I'm so lucky that I have such a strong wife." Jungkook mumbled in her hair as she stroked his back and placed kisses on his cheek. "Everything's okay." Teresa whispered in his ear.

Sheri and Namjoon had invited Chae Young over to play with their son as Sheri focused on TV while Namjoon had cautiously built Legos with the children. Sheri couldn't stifle her laughter whenever they scolded him for messing up their blocks, albeit it was a complete accident on his part. "Okay, okay I'm sorry." Namjoon mumbled with a chuckle.

Mella texted Sheri of the situation between Emily and Jin, as Sheri grimaced. "Uh oh." Sheri said as Namjoon flopped on to the couch. "What's wrong?" Namjoon asked as Sheri filled him in on what happened. "Yikes, but it just doesn't make sense how Jin would suddenly snap at her like that." Sheri nodded as she leaned her head on his shoulder.

"It's gotta be Bang PD, he's trying to ruin everyone. I wouldn't be surprised if he started drama between us." Sheri said in such a casual voice that made Namjoon chuckle. "Wow jagi. But I agree with you." Chae Young and Suho were playing house together as Suho's smile evidently brightened whenever Chae Young randomly hugged him or that she was simply around.

Jimin dragged Natalie with him to the picnic that he had specially prepared as he showered her with kisses and hugs. "Jimin oppa, you're being extra sweet today~." Natalie joked as Jimin chuckled as he pinched her cheeks. "It's just sometimes I get this burst of realization of how much I love you and how grateful I am to have you." Jimin confessed shyly as Natalie grabbed his hands and interlocked her hand with his.

"I love you Park Jimin." Natalie professed as Jimin smiled cheekily before swooping to plant a sweet kiss on her lips.

Joanna and Taehyung were sitting on a park bench and simply chatting as Taehyung sighed peacefully. Taehyung ran a hand through her hair as she whined and pressed her face into his shoulder. "Tae~, I'm tired. Can we go home and take a nap?" Joanna pleaded with puppy dog eyes as Taehyung pouted. "No, there's so much we could do~!!" Taehyung whined right back as Joanna's nose scrunched up in defeat.

Emily had continued in her resolve to ignore Jin as Jin sighed angrily. Jin hated himself for bringing up such a sensitive subject just because his stupid boss had gone and implanted such morbid ideas in his head.

Emily had silently went off to bed as Jin followed her like a lost puppy. "Jagi.." "Jin oppa I have nothing to say to you."

J-hope had rested in his room, unable to stop thinking about Sofia. ' Great, just when I thought I had moved on.' J-hope thought, unknown that Sofia had been crying herself to sleep.

~A month later~

Yoongi stood in front of the altar, anxious yet entirely delightful to finally marry the girl that he loved with his all and was willing to go to the end of the world for her.

Mella on the other hand, was still doubting her skill to actually provide love and comfort for him, being his support system. "Yoongi, I love you." Mella whispered to herself as her dad walked her down the aisle to the very man that had begun tearing up watching his girlfriend walk towards him in her wedding dress.

"Jagi, you mean the world to me and I can guarantee I'll do anything to love you and care for you. I want you to understand you'll always be loved and cared for around me." Yoongi recited his vows happily as Mella slyly wiped her tears.

"Yoongi oppa, nothing can describe how much I love you. You mean more to me than life itself and my biggest fear every single day is that everything's just a dream and when I wake up, you'll disappear. So being your wife is my dream come true." Mella recited her vows as the pastor declared them married. Yoongi eagerly held Mella against him and placed a long and sweet kiss on her lips.

J-hope coincidentally were placed together as they awkwardly made small talk about the weather and work. His guard up around her and she completely understood why, she had broken his heart that he genuinely gave to her in belief that she would keep his heart safe.

"Um so your group is getting more and more successful now, huh?" J-hope mumbled as Sofia nodded. She knew it was reckless but she couldn't bare the state they had came to. "J-hope oppa, if there was a chance for me to fix what happened, could we get back together?" Sofia asked cryptically as J-hope's eyebrows furrowed in confusion. "What do you mean?" Sofia became a little dispirited, seeing his negative reaction towards a conversation about their relationship. "What if I told you, there was a reason why I had to leave you?" Sofia asked desperately as J-hope backed away from her.

"Yeah, you told me why you left. I was hindering your career and ruining your chances of finding someone better." J-hope muttered, biting and cold as he sighed and walked away from her. "J-hope oppa.." Sofia called out softly with teary eyes.

Emily and Jin had sat together, Emily whom still remained silent but had shown a few signs of her resolve beginning to crack. Jin suddenly enveloped his arms around her waist as she stared at him in surprise. "Jin, what are you doing?" She asked, trying to sound annoyed but deep down she missed the feeling of his arms around her.

Chae Young had caught on to the tense atmosphere as she joined to appease Emily's anger at Jin. "Umma, Appa knows he made a mistake and hurt your feelings. Can you please forgive him?" Emily finally cracked a smile as she turned around in his arms. "Then, you need to tell me why you did that. Was it Bang PD?" Jin nodded, ashamed as he caressed her face. "He was on my back about everything. Muttering about how you would cheat on me once you get all my money and that I didn't deserve your love."

Jin mumbled as Emily sighed and kissed his cheek. "Then, all you needed to do was tell me that. You know I'd support you no matter what. I love you."
