"what a wicked thing to do,
To make me dream of you"

_______****_______

"When will we be leaving?" you ask Jungkook as you zip up the bag after putting all the clothes in.

It's 12 in the noon. You've just cut the video call with Eun Jae. He misses you there and you do too. You just want to be there with your son as soon as possible.

" In the evening. Is it all packed?" he asks and goes on to type something on his laptop again while sitting on the bed. He's in this position since morning. You wonder what he's doing on that screen.

"If this meeting goes successfully, we'll be a lot more step closer to end this EXO range drama for once and all," Jungkook sighs as he rubs his temples.

"You should rest a little. You're staring at the screen for hours. It's not healthy," you sit on the bed as you hand him the glass of water.

"I know but they're getting a dangerous threat. I want this to end, don't wanna risk lives anymore," he chugs down the water in one go.

"Anyways how's Eun Jae?" he asks.

"Great! He misses us though. Ah jumma takes him to the play school and he showed me something he learned from there," you giggle.

"He's growing smart. We'll be there soon," he mumbles while typing on the keyboard. You don't disturb him further and excuse yourself to roam outside of the room, in the mansion.

You walk to the kitchen to get to eat something. There you meet one of Jungkook's cousin's wife. She walks carefully towards the sink to put the empty glass in it. She's 7 months pregnant and her bump is big and prominent. Looking at her, you usually remember the time when you had Eun Jae filling in the sense of nostalgia.

"OH Y/N?" she calls for me.

"Yes Rika. How are you?" you ask her as you open the fridge to look for something.

"I'm good, sweetie. By the way if you're looking for something to eat, please don't eat my chocolate cake in there," she chuckles.

"OH," you look at the cake set inside the fridge, "I won't. I know all the cravings you get".

You smile at her and take out some sandwiches. For now, it'll be enough. Setting it on the kitchen island, you start talking with Rika about the ball last night. She was just babbling about how beautiful the wedding proposal was. You can't help but think of that moment over and over again.

It has to be one of the most cherish able moments in your life. You felt incredibly loved, cared for and important for someone.

It was magical and unforgettable.

"What are the ladies talking about?" Rika's husband, Jungkook's cousin brother, enters the kitchen with Jungkook closely following him.

They were talking about the upcoming plans before entering the kitchen. Jungkook immediately scrambles towards where you're sitting to sit beside you.

" Are you done with the work?" you ask him and he nods resting his head on your shoulder as you continue eating. You offer him a bite but he just shakes his head. He looks tired. Extremely.

"I wanna show you something," the husband tells Rika as he holds her hand gently pulling her with him.

"OH where are you taking me?" she asks but nonetheless follows him. They both leave the kitchen bickering with each other cutely.

You chuckle softly and go back to eating when Jungkook speaks from your shoulder.

"You must've looked really hot while being pregnant with Eun Jae," he tells you.

"What?!" you ask him, completely not ready for such random confession.

He hums and sits up straight to look at you.

"Don't you have any picture of you with a baby bump?" he asks you.

"No. Initially, Young Chul never let me take photos because he had some strange fear of cameras. Then I was too deep into this messed up life of mine, I didn't care much," you answer and sigh at the memories.

"Now that I think, I've never seen Young Chul," Jungkook states.

"You didn't dig up his documents? Like you did mine?"

"Never felt the need. The only thing that matters to me is that he's Eun Jae's father. I need to respect him for that," he says and you look at his face.

He's too good to be true. It's so pretty to think that he's so cruel to world outside but when it comes to you, he's like the softest person ever. If love could be embodied, he'd be that person for you.

" But right now, in this moment, I really want to have my baby inside you," he smiles at you.

"I thought it was only women who ovulate," you murmur.

Jungkook laughs out loud, following with your laughter.

********************
In next few hours, you and the clan members get ready with the luggage to finally leave the place.

After meeting grandfather, all of you  straight board the jets which came along with you. The ride in the plane was smooth and quite because of the exhaustion that was still felt by everyone. Besides, none of you actually got time to recover from the jet lag. Guess after arriving at the Jeon mansion, you'd finally find peace.

"Oh also, I told ah jumma that we'd be picking Eun Jae up from his play school," you tell Jungkook as you take the last sip from the cup of coffee.

"That's great," he smiles at you and closes his eyes again to take as much rest he can.

During you time to leave his grandfather's place, Jungkook asked you if you both could go and pick Eun Jae up from his play school after their jet lands. The private airport and his school are on the same road. You were more than glad he thought of it because you were literally dying to meet your son.

You wonder what he must be doing.

Meanwhile, in his play school Eun Jae is playing with his mates. They were running around making forts in the sand when his closest buddy, Chung soo, asks him something.

"You ever had a play station?" he asks the innocent doe eyed two years old Eun Jae who with his small hands tries his best to smoothen the roof of the tiny castle he made.

Eun Jae shakes his head, "Whass Dat?"

His lips are pouted in his attempts when he looks up at his friend with thick lashed eyes.

"You Don know? Is video game. Biiiig," the friend spreads his small arms to show the size and Eun Jae's already big eyes widens.

"My dad gave me," he says and gets back to helping Eun Jae.

"Whass dad?" he asks, completely oblivious of a word like that.

"Dad! You Don have dad?" the innocent friend asks and Eun Jae just sits there trying his best to recall if he knows 'dad'.

"How you know a dad?"

"Dad brings me gifts, candies and kiss me everyday," Chung soon answers.

"Das Mommy!" Eun Jae exclaims.

"No! Dad is a guy, no girl!"

Eun Jae thinks hard and all he could think about his uncles. Kookie uncle, Yoongi uncle and everyone. They give him gifts, sweets and kisses too. Can he have 7 dads?

"Kookie uncle, Oongi uncle, Jinnie uncl-"

"Silly! You have only one dad."

"I don have a dad...," Eun Jae purrs, shrinking in his seat. Feeling sad for not having a dad that Chung soo is talking about. He wants a dad too.

"Eryone has dad!" Chung soo tells him, "Umm... You are confused!"

"Then... How I know my dad?"

"Ummmmmm," Chung soo thinks hard, "OH! My dad loves my mommy!"

"How you know?"

"He kisses her also!" Chung soo giggles and so does Eun Jae and then his mind clicks.

"Kookie uncle kisses mommy..."

"Then silly! He not you uncle, he your dad!"

Eun Jae's face lit up as he claps his hands in excitement and happiness.

"I have a dad!!!" he squeals and laughs along with his friend.

"Eun Jae!" the teacher shouts his name from afar.

"Yes miss," Eun Jae immediately stands up, trying to brush off the sand from his clothes and hands. He couldn't though.

"You can go home now!" the teacher tells and ask him to come to her.

He waves a good bye to his friend and excitedly runs in his small frame towards the teacher. She grins at him and holds his hand. Taking him towards the front gate, she tries to get the dirt off him on the way.

"Mr. Jeon, here's him," she speaks and Eun Jae looks at where his teacher is looking to see Jungkook with you standing there by the car, waiting for him.

Untangling his fingers from the teacher, he runs towards you both.

"Careful, buddy," Jungkook speaks before bending down a little, opening his arms for the boy.

"Dad!" Eun Jae screams loudly before hugging Jungkook.

Your eyes widen as you look at Jungkook on your side only to see him wearing the sane reaction. Jungkook picks him up in his arms and ruffle his air.

"Hi baby," you kiss his forehead and he giggles.

"Why did you call him dad?" you ask him and Jungkook looks at you.

"He my dad! He give me gifts, sweets and kiss me. He kiss you too!" Eun Jae smiles cheekily.

"My dad! My dad! My dad!" he keeps on singing it like some poem while cutely dancing in his arms, making Jungkook laugh out.

"Wow, I never knew it would feel so good to be called 'dad'," he grins, looking at you.

You look at them, not believing what's happening in front of your eyes. Eun Jae called Jungkook dad and he felt good about it? Is this a dream?

Had Eun Jae finally found his father figure...?

You chuckle in disbelief as tears string your eyes but you gulp it down. It's a beautiful moment, you don't want to shed tears.

"Yes, Eun Jae. I'm your dad, OK?" Jungkook tell him and Eun Jae squeals before hugging him.

On the ride to home, you can only admire Jungkook and your son. You like how he has sat Eun Jae on his lap even though he's dirty with sand and sweat. To be honest, he doesn't seem to care. You also like how they keep on giggling and playing with each other as Eun Jae tells his gibberish stories to him.

You can only smile and cherish the moment. You've always given your best to Eun Jae. Never in your life, after Young Chul passed away, you thought Eun Jae would actually adore this father son bond. More than anyone, you're the one loving this.

Your son finally found a father.

When you arrive home, Eun Jae runs off inside the mansion towards his play room. You were about to chase him to clean him up but Jungkook stops you.

"What is it?" he asks and you frown at him.

"I saw you were looking at me the whole time. Did you not like that Eun Jae called me dad?" he asks and you gasp.

"What?! No! That's not it. I just... I just can't believe that happened. I was elated that he called you dad. Don't think like that please. I never knew I'd actually hear him saying that. I never knew he'd found a father for himself but it being you, gives me so much adoration towards you. That's why I was just looking. Cherishing the moment, "you explain and he looks at you before smiling.

" Sure? "

" OH yeah. Why would I not like it? "

He snickers and let your arm go.

" I should wash up too. I might need to go to Italy tomorrow morning, "he tells you.

" Why? "your eyes widen. He just came back and he's already planning to go abroad again. He'll get sick at this pace, noting the fact he isn't taking much rest.

" Told you about that meeting with GOT7, " he answers.

" You'd get sick at this pace, "you worry out.

" I won't. I'd take rest now. Don't worry, OK? "

You nod but you are more than worried. He kisses your forehead  and walks off towards the bedroom while you walk towards Eun Jae.

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

Next morning

" Don't skip food, OK? " you tell him as you follow his footsteps after he steps out of the room, wearing his usual black work suit. He's fixing his watch as he hums.

"I won't, my lady," he snickers.

"Yes and please take good rest in between. Working continuesely will worn you off," you ramble as you follow him climbing down the stairs.

Jungkook hums and smiles to himself at your behavior. It's 6 in the morning and you're so pent up. He's seen you like this for the first time. It's been so long since he last felt someone caring so much for him. It was his mom who used to ramble such things whenever the small  Jungkook would go out to play or on some school trip.

"Yeah. And I've put some meds in your bag. You can take them when you feel sick or something," now you're walking towards the main door of the house. You're panting due to following him and rambling at the same time.

"And...," you're breathing rapidly now when you reach the main door. The car is standing outside and now you don't want him to go. It's so childish of you, you know but going on for a week without him seems difficult right now.

"Call me when you get time, OK?" you complete and he turns towards you with a beautiful smile.

Cupping your cheeks lovingly he says, "I will baby. Don't worry too much. I've been to loads of meetings abroad. I'd be fine."

Then kisses your mouth feverishly and you relax in it, feeling better. Your heart feels uneasy but you try to stay positive. He'd be fine.

Parting away, he looks at you, admiring you and then kisses your forehead.

" I'll see you, laters baby, " smiling at you he turns around towards the main door.

You stand by the door, watching him sit in the car. Rolling his window down, he waves at you and you wave him goodbye through your heavy throat. Not knowing how'd you spend this coming week.

*********************
The whole week, you kept yourself busy by going to Eun Jae's playschool with him and playing small little games with the children there. There were always two big buff bodyguards by you on Jungkook's order. You really adored the time spent there. You became a children yourself while playing with them.

It was fun for you while under your eye, Eun Jae opened up with other children more too. They were becoming good friends with him. He was getting out of his bubble and you liked it.

During the evening, you'd help the chefs with food. Since the members and Jungkook are not here, it feels so alone but the maids and chefs here never made you feel different and you loved it. You were never an excellent cook but in this one week, you literally learnt so many new recipes though you know you'd forget them easily. Still, you learnt at least.

At night, you'd narrate stories to Eun Jae or just roam around the big mansion. You like to stare the the paintings in the house and all of them being drawn by Jungkook makes you feel like he's actually home.

Whenever he calls, even for a minute, you get so excited that you forget what you want to talk to him about.

Jungkook laughs everytime you ask him the same questions about 'did you eat? Did you sleep well? Did you take your meds?' again and again.

Right now, it's almost the end of the week. You're sitting by the big tall window inside the library of the mansion. You're looking outside at the full moon night sky. The winter is almost going now. The sky is clear with no clouds.

The soft moonlight pours into the room, falling upon you as you stare at your phone time to time in hope that it lit up with a call from him. You miss him more than anything now.

The screen lit up and you jolt before looking at it. It's from him only. You giddily smile before picking it up after clearing your throat.

"Hello," you call for him.

"Hi," when he said that your heart starts beating fast. He still has that effect on you.

"Did you-"

"Yes, I ate appetitely. I took a really good rest and my health is perfectly fine," he answers all your questions in one go.

"Are you teasing me?" you ask in disbelief.

"Of course, Y/N," he responds coolly.

"You're so mean," you gasp at his mischievousness.

He laughs out and you hear him. He's so unbelievable sometimes.

"Anyways, when are you coming back?" yoh ask him, reverting the topic.

"Tomorrow if some emergency doesn't arrive," he answers and you feel calm finally. He'd be back home. With you.

"I can't wait to see you again," you whisper through the phone, looking at the moon out of the window.

"Me too baby," he whispers back.

And so on you talk to each other about home and business for a few minutes before he finally says goodbye and cuts the phone.

You stare at the screen and feel excited for tomorrow. He'd finally be here. With you, the place where he belongs.

The whole night when you were trying to sleep, you could feel that giddy feeling inside you. The tingles and butterflies on the thought of seeing him finally. It wasn't long since he was gone. Seven days just passes by but it felt like you were waiting for him for years.

You're obsessed with him and can't seem to go on for even a day without him. He's just like this. He just has you in his grasp so tight like this.

You are just waiting for the dark gloomy sky to disappear into warm bright colors of morning sky. And when it finally arrives, you scramble to work.

It was Sunday, so Eun Jae is at home. When he wakes up, you help him take a bath and eat his breakfast. Alongside, you make sure to make all of Jungkook's favorite dishes to impress him. It is 9 in the morning. He must've boarded his jet. He might be here in few more hours.

The soft butterflies inside you gives you memories of his gentle and rough touch. You can imagine how he'd look at you and hug you tightly before kissing you. You know he missed you as much as you did.

When the door opens finally in the evening, you rush towards it. You see all the members coming in with their luggage behind them carried by the workers. All of them look exhausted. Of course, it was a long flight.

"Hi , Y/N," Seokjin greets you when he sees you standing by the stairs.

"Hello," you murmur to him with a smile while looking behind them to see a glimpse of your lover.

"Where's Jungkook?" you ask and all of them looks at each other.

You look at their faces and finally see worry on them. Jimin gulps hard as if he's stopping himself from breaking down. Something is wrong.

"What happened? Are you guys OK?" you enquire again.

"Oh yes, we're fine...," Yoongi answers.

"I guess we all should rest. We're tired," Taehyung speaks before he starts walking.

You run towards them to stop them. Where is Jungkook? You want to know.

"What's the matter? Where's he?" you ask them, panic boiling inside you.

"Y/N-"

A call on Seokjin's phone interrupts Hoseok. You dumbfoundedly look at their faces. Your heart is in your throat and you're thinking of nothing but the most negative thing ever. You know it can't be true. You talked with him in the morning. He was telling you he misses you and loves you.

When Seokjin cuts the call after a minute of talk, he looks up at everyone with his eyes almost gleamy.

No no. Nonono.

"Please tell me, where is he? What happened?" your throat constricted inside you and eyes on the verge if tearing up.

"Y/N, his...," he trails off, before a drop of tear falls down his cheek.

This can't be happening. This isn't true. Seokjin has never cried in front of you.

"What the hell happened?! Can someone tell me! Please," you sob out as tears starts falling down.

"His jet crashed, Y/N and his body-... he's missing," Seokjin tells and everyone gasps at him.

"No . This isn't true. This can't be true," you mumble.

"He could be dea-"

"No! Don't say that! He can't be... He can't go... He's ther-"

And then you collapse on the ground.
