After a lovely and great week in Hawaii, you and Taehyung returned home full of satisfaction and excitement.

Your phones were flooded with notifications from the Bangtan chat group. You and Taehyung purposely ghosted them since you know how they will torment you in the chat group. You'd rather let them sweat it out and wait for your arrival.

You and Taehyung were cuddling in the charter bedroom, discussing your future.

Taehyung glanced down at your serene face, "Are you glad we're going home?"

You looked up at his gorgeous face and tender eyes. "Not really. I enjoy our mini-honeymoon and being with you, Taelove. We are now legally married, and I can't wait for our civil celebration with our family and friends." You cuddled closer into his chest as Taehyung began to chuckle softly.

Taehyung laughed: "Well, we can either marry secretly and give our agencies and fandom a huge heart attack or we can marry the same year as the others if Jungkook and Jimin find their soulmates."

You chuckle, "Kookie always keeps things from all of us...do you think he'll reveal his soulmate so soon after bonding? I doubt that."

Taehyung agreed, "True...and Jimin is still a little obsessed with that redhead Australian girl. I hope he finds closure, or that he finally falls out of love."

You shook your head, slightly sorrowful. "I don't think it's that easy, Taelove. It seemed to me that Red may be destiny. They fell head over heels for one other at first sight. How is it possible to fall in love so quickly and without the intervention of Fate? I believe she is his destiny. I hope she receives her whisperer mark soon."

Taelove grins, "I hope so too...but I'm nervous about the great reveal of the Bells. What if the Army abandons us if we show them our girls? You will face a lot of backlash and unfounded hatred from all the toxic fans, and saseangs will come after you. It might be harmful. At least Hobi and I's crazed fan is still in the mental asylum. I get goosebumps just thinking about that crazy girl."

You seem quiet with this serious expression, "Bighit will not put you in risk. You have millions of protectors who safeguard us. And the genuine ARMY will be pleased that you are not robots, but rather humans. There will be jealous fans, who I doubt are fans, who will launch a hate train against us. But who cares?"

Taehyung smiles slightly, "Yeah, even Yoongi-hyung does not want to show Ji-Ho. She is a well-known face, and she gained fame through her fans now and Blinks. We have a wonderful friendship with Blackpink, but not so much between ARMY and Blinks. So we must prepare for a massive fandom war. But I hope that our fans will be patient. They are, after all, mature individuals, not just teeny boppers."

You sigh deeply, "All I want to do is love you and make you happy, Taelove. I want to care and be there for you. We will support and protect you. What transpired over my mother's birthday weekend with Dylan concerned me. Every day, I checked social media to see whether he had posted any incriminating evidence that could expose us. He is not dumb. He'll put two and two together. And his silence is the most terrifying. My mother stated that she spoke with his parents, who were angry by his rudeness and spoke with him."

Taehyung inhaled deeply, 'To tell you the truth, my dear. I don't want you to stay so close to him after graduation. I am delighted you chose to stay and work in South Korea. When we land, we shall arrive in Busan."

You frowned across your face. "Busan...why? The beach is usually crowded by now."

Taehyung smiled slyly, "Well, a few years ago Jimin, Jhope, Jin-hyung, and I decided to invest in a few beach homes in Busan, so we purchased apartments in both Busan and Seoul. My Seoul apartment is really large. Jimin and Jungkook will spend a few days in Busan, visiting their parents and staying at the Jimin Beach villa. We will spend the day with them, swimming and barbecuing. Jin-hyung and Samiya will also be present. But Yoongi and Hobi-hyung will hang together because they are doing some production work with Rapmon."

You seemed surprised at the unexpected revelation, saying, "Oh yeah, that will be wonderful. Unfortunately, Ji Ho will be too busy filming their new comeback MV and making her acting debut. I can't wait to see Samiya."

Taehyung grinned, "It will be great because Jin-Hyung and Samiya always do the cooking for us, allowing us to relax and enjoy the last few days of our honeymoon."

You appeared invigorated and excited, "I'm really enjoying this. Then I need to return to Beijing to graduate from my undergraduate studies. I'm hoping Seoul National University will accept me into their graduate program in film editing. Bang Pd told me that if I finish my master's degree, I can come and work permanently with Bighit in the Video Film Crew department. So, my career path is established. Ji-ho wanted me to study at Yonsei University, but it's too far from your apartment and I don't want to reside in a dorm."

Taehyung smiles, "You will only stay at our apartment when your academic schedule is too demanding to handle while we are travelling. But most of the time you'll be at Presidents Hill and touring with us."

You seem overjoyed, "Well, our future is set in stone. I can't wait to graduate and stay with you forever."

Taehyung smirks and waggles his brows, "Well, we still have a lot of hours before we land...so what about giving your Taetae some sweet love?" he abruptly flips you over as you squeal in delight, kissing him passionately.

......

A few hours later, the couple arrived at Gimhae International Airport's private airport, where Taehyung's private SUV with dark tinted windows awaited them. The heavy-set middle-aged driver was overjoyed to see his favourite employer and his adorable loved one, who remains a secret to the rest of the world. Following the placing of their bags into the boot, a bodyguard sat in front of the driver. The air smells fresh and salty from the nearby sea. The drive to the apartments felt like a luxurious scenic excursion to the beach.

It was a short drive to the coastal apartments. Your gaze was drawn to the landscape because it was your first trip in Jungkook and Jimins' hometown. Taelove was telling you about the landmarks because, prior to his debut, he wanted the maknae-line to always spend vacations together with their families.

Taehyung pointed to a bridge, saying, "That's Gupo Bridge, where the Nakdong River flows. You'll enjoy the nightlife here."

You smile as you enter the skyscrapers of Busan. Huge and tall concrete jungle nestled among some of Korea's traditional residences and sites. The downtown area was lively.

Taehyung smiled at your awestruck gaze, "Yes, this is Seomyeom City. At night, the city is filled up with neon lights, and there are numerous high-end fashion stores. Koreans enjoy brands and high fashion, as evidenced by how the people dress, as well as the fancy restaurants, the majority of which are quite reasonable and serve Korean cuisine."

You sign: "Do they have underground shopping malls like Soeul?" Maybe Sami and I can go shopping for skincare products."

Taehyung laughs quietly, "You and Sami together will bankrupt Bighit."

You chuckle and push his shoulder, "Don't be silly! I'm about to bankrupt my debit card. My baba will be really furious if I touch my model savings from all of my commercials. I will be the first yuan millionaire in my family very soon."

Taehyung pursed his lips to hide a grin. "With your discipline, I'm glad your baba is assisting you with your finances. But you know what mine is yours, so you can use all of my black cards and shop until you drop."

You gave him a aside glance, "You're a fashionista from what I've heard. The fancy brands you wear are giving me nightmares. Maybe I'll give you financial advise. We still have to leave an inheritance for our five children, and from what I see, all of them may have impeccable taste like their future father and be high mantenance".

Taehyung teases you, "So you are keen on giving me five kids---"

You scrunched up your nose and huffed, "Well, it is still negotiable. As long as you still appreciate me after five children."

Taeyung began to chuckle: "You'll be the most beautiful woman for me ever, with little side rolls and chubby cheeks, you still be cute."

You glare at him: "Seriously..."

He grinned and gave you a short kiss on the cheek.

As you drove in, your gaze wandered outside to the Haeundae city sign. The scene shifted from buildings to an open beach. You spotted joggers and tourists basking in the sun's last rays, as well as beautiful couples walking hand in hand. It almost makes you nostalgic as you watch the normalcy of everyday life and how luxury it has become for idols who can't even go out without having their pictures taken or chased by sasaeng fans.

How much do you want to walk with your loved one like any other couple, holding hands, eating ice cream, and laughing without fear of being stalked?

You drove past Busan's most affluent five-star hotels, such as the Westin Josun and the Park Hyatt, with their glass exteriors along the coastline. Your eyes expand as you drive past the city's wealthiest neighborhoods for the ultra-rich. Taehyung wants the two of you to build a family mansion, but you need to decide where and when. Jin-hyung is already building his mansion in one of Seoul's most affluent neighborhoods. Jungkook even suggested Itaewon or Incheon.

Taehyung beamed as you approached one of the fanciest apartments. You drove inside the private entry as the city noises faded and were replaced by the relaxing sound of beach waves. The SUV drove into the exclusive parking spot near the private penthouse elevator. You were a little nervous, and you hoped that no one would notice a girl with an idol. Taehyung senses your anxiety and gently takes your hands in his to calm you. You just smile warmly and follow him to the elevator. The bodyguard and porter were assisting with the remainder of your luggage.

The enormous entrance was immaculate, with marble floors and huge, expensive chandeliers. A polished wooden table near the large windows held a large vase of white lilies that smelled lovely. The elevator takes you to the top penthouse suites, which have wall-to-ceiling glass windows that provide views of the ocean and cityscapes. The sky had shed the final rays of sunlight as it prepared to enter sunset, and you could see the spectacular display of the glittering lights of distant cityscapes. The playground for the elite and famous.

You can't wait to relax in your place.

Taehyung dotted his door code after the bodyguard and porter had greeted you and wished you a pleasant stay.

There are two penthouses on the same floor. The penthouse's private floor is extremely welcoming and magnificent. A white wooden table stands next to brown laminated walls, a huge white wooden mirror, and lovely flowers on a stand that looked so inviting. The massive mahogany door at the far end belongs to an older business executive who frequently travels. Taehyung had never met his neighbour. When the neighbour is home, he is on tour.

Taehyung opened the door, but before you could react, he took you into his arms in a bridal style, and you squealed in disbelief. When he entered chuckling, he sat you down in the entrance hall, and your eyes nearly bulged out of your sockets at the exquisite beauty of your residence.  

You nearly forgot that Taehyung is a very wealthy idol, and his artistic ability has always impressed you. The entire residence was in monotone white and black. From black kitchen cupboards to white fluffy chairs with white and black scatter pillows. The kitchen was fully equipped with the latest high-end appliances. A woman's ideal kitchen. The living area was similarly elegantly furnished in black and white, with a dash of yellow adding a cheerful and friendly vibe.

"Welcome home, Mrs Kim Taehyung.." he teased as you inhaled deeply. Running barefoot to the open panoramic windows, which provided a wonderful view of the beautiful beach.

You smiled widely at Taehyung, who just smirked in delight, "It's already sunset...come here!" You fervently invited him to come and watch the magnificent sunset with you. Taehyung stood behind you, giving you an affectionate back embrace. His chin in your neck folds while you stand there admiring the sunset.

Taehyung whispers in your ear, "I love you, Kim Yunru---never forget that ever."

You tilt your face slightly, look into his attentive gaze, and smile gently, kissing him on the lips. "I will always love you, Taelove. Never forget that...and I will never abandon you and only look at you."

Taehyung moaned, "These last months have been so trying...with tours, demanding schedules, and the antics of your amazing best friend. I just hope Dylan backs off from now on, because I have a bad feeling about him, Yunru. Just be very careful around him. I do not think he will give up that easily. He is so psychotic and obsessive."

You inhaled deeply as you turned around and caressed his cheeks; his eyes remained suspicious with a hint of anxiety. You both know Dylan has a deadly streak within him, and you will never get beyond the narrowed eyes full of malice aimed at Taehyung. You are relieved he isn't aware of your departure to Seoul. But he's cunning enough to stalk you on bts websites to find out what Bangtan's schedule is. He will go through all of the guys' profiles, and you will get freezing goosebumps when he realises you are bonded with one of the prominent members rather than a Bighit producer, as everyone is led to believe.

You nodded in agreement, "True, Taelove. But I will be protected after graduation. It's unfortunate that you won't be able to attend, but Zhang Wei and Shelby may fly out for the weekend to show their support. He will do a live stream for Bangtan. So everyone can see me graduate with honors."

Taehyung grinned as he kissed your lips, "I'll be there in spirit. Hobi sent me a message. I forgot to tell you. He claimed that when they saw him with a young fan with Ming Mei, Twitter went into turmoil. Everyone is curious about the appearance price tag of a Bangtan member attending the party. Ming Mei appeared quite happy. The post received millions of views and likes."

Your eyes widen. "Wow! Gosh, Tae! I hope Dylan doesn't see those posts unless he follows Hobi and the rest of Bangtan. Did you gain a new follower after the party? Just checking."

Taehyung smirked, "I didn't check...but Hobi posted on Bangtan's official account. It was only a picture of him and Ming Mei. So don't worry. Everyone is jealous of the young Army."

You smiled, "Ming Mei might get into the idol trainee system when she's 13 years old. She also likes Blackpink, and I instructed her to keep it a secret that Ji-Ho is Bell and Yoongi's soulmate, as well as the elusive fifth member of Blackpink. You should see all the excited emoticons she gave me. She knows I'm a Bangpink member, and she wants to meet Jennie and the rest of the girls. I hadn't even met them yet."

Taehyung laughs, "Don't worry...Ji-Ho may be working on a meeting, but Yoongi-hyung claims she had a minor altercation with a band member. He did not reveal too much."

Your eyes are sombre. "Yes, she told us. I hope she'll be okay with their music video shoot."

JI-ho informed the Bells of Jennie's unhealthy crush on her soulmate, and the tension between the girls was only escalating. She updated you that the festival at her former university was tough since Jenny's attitude was not respectful. She even considered speaking with her management about leaving the Blackpink penthouse dorm for good. She can't live like that, and the stress isn't something she wished for."

Taehyung looked around. "Come, let me take you on a tour, and then we can get some takeout of your choosing. We'll simply sleep here for a night. Tomorrow, we will go to Jimin's condo and spend the day with them, possibly staying the night, before returning to Seoul early in the morning. Management will fetch us up at Jimin's residence. So we don't have to unpack anything except our clothes for tomorrow."

You clapped your hands, saying, "Oh lovely, we had a long flight. I believe we should refresh, dress in our loungewear, and spend the evening watching a movie or two..."

Taehyung snorts, "I don't want to watch movies...I'm still on honeymoon. So, you have to make me happy.." He casually waggles his brow as your eyes widen. Oh my goodness, your beloved went hormonal overnight.

........

The next morning, you and Taelove got out of bed early, having spent the previous evening watching only one action movie and snuggling together on a comfy bed after you had some romance together, discussing your work and future, which you can't wait to enjoy together. Taehyung's pink diamond ring was your favourite piece of jewellery, symbolizing your eternal love for one another.

It felt so comfortable and cosy in bed that you didn't want to get out. Taehyung was always the first to get up, and he'd splash you with his damp hair to wake you up.

Your driver was on his way in a black SUV. He'll arrive at the apartment shortly because it's still extremely early.

Taelove only managed to prepare you some cereal and an enjoyable cafe latte while you rushed to the shower. Jimin called and told him not to bother making a huge breakfast because Samiya and Jin had already come the day before to spend an additional day with them. Samiya is cooking up a storm with Jin-Hyung as an extra chef.

You grin and wonder if Smaiya can get any work done with Seokjin breathing down her neck, demanding surprise kisses that generally linger like a full-fledged make-out session anywhere not caring who is in the audience. Those PDAs are lethal.  You both giggle as you recall Jungkook witnessing those two love birds. 

 He is easily embarrassed, and you wonder how he will behave with the love of his life. That boy is not as innocent as everyone believes he is. You knew instinctively that he had kissed his past girlfriends. Taehyung revealed that he had a cute high school girlfriend who is also an idol and that he dated a now-famous American model when he was 15 years old.

So the hyungs that still believe that their little muscle bunny is so innocent will get the shock of a lifetime.   

....

Jimins condo was located on the opposite side of the beach. He owns a piece of the private beach and has access to the ocean from his pool patio. You cannot wait to see these guys. You missed the remainder of the maknae-line and your new best friend, Sami.

When you arrived, Jimin and Jungkook ran up to greet you and welcome you to their hometown. Jungkook didn't care about Taehyung's displeasure when he captured you in his muscled arms and swung you about while Jimin snickered.

Taehyung raised his eyes, "Watch it, Kookie, or I'll tackle you in your hometown," he mocked, but Jungkook merely shrugged as he wrapped his arms around you, looking teasingly down at your short posture.

"So my little Noona---did Taehyung treat you well at the honeymoon?" He smiled as you simply rolled your eyes. Taehyung gave him a jaw-dropping side-eye.

Taehyung grumbled, "Are we going to disclose such information?"

Jimin bit his lip as he immediately hugged you from the other side, you looking like a small sandwich between the two boys. Jimin whispered for you to hear, "Did our Taetae...deliver the goods well."

You stared perplexed at the snickering Jimin, scrunched up your nose, and shoved him away from you. "Gosh you are a pervert...and yes, for your information, he was more than capable. Oh my goodness, I can't believe I had to answer you on that idiotic question."

Jimin burst into laughter, "But you just did my cute little maknae."

Taehyung scowled, "Jimin, you're not going to be a nuisance. Will you? or I take my girl back to Seoul earlier?".

Jungkook smiled, "We're not going to tease your Taehyungie. You are a man now," he added mockingly. Taehyung only shrugged as you entered the massive beach house that would take your breath away.

Jimin welcomed you cheerfully, "Welcome to my humble abode!" He invited you in.

"Oh, wow! Jimin, your property is immaculate. Almost like an island retreat. You must enjoy your vacations here." You glanced in amazement.

Jimin smirks, "Yeah, sometimes. My parents and some family members enjoy using it on vacation. It's like a vacation home. I hope you'll enjoy it."

Just then, you climbed the massive steps to the first-floor kitchen and lounge room.

You heard Sami squeal as she ran up to you. Seokjin was busy marinating steaks and fish.

"Oh, Funsize is here! Oh, I missed you so much." Her curly hair was longer in a high ponytail when she held you, and you were practically out of breath.

You chuckle softly against her, "Can't breathe...can't breathe."

Taehyung smiled as he greeted his noona and hyung. "It smells divine..."

Seokjin was behind the kitchen counter, winking as he lifted a massive piece of steak. "We're going to barbeque at noon. Just marinate the meat first. This would have made Yoong's mouth water—" he chuckles. 

You adored the open-plan kitchen with its stunning views of the patio and the ocean.

He glanced at you with a teasing glint in his eyes, and you knew Seokjin was going to tease you and Taehyung all day. "Funsize...good to see my little sister. So, how do you feel now that you're a real woman?"

Everyone is snickering while you simply roll your eyes. "I wasn't aware that I was less of a woman?"

Sami grinned and firmly addressed her boyfriend. "Baby, don't start. If Funsize and Taehyung want to tell us about their experiences, they will. It's still a private matter---" she joked, but her smile deepened as she saw your pink diamond ring. It was beautiful.

"Oh, my word! Is this what I believe it is?" she lifted your hands as you smirked wide. The light brougth a sparkle to the pink diamond ring.

"Yes, Taehyung and I are secretly engaged. He popped the question, and obviously, the answer was yes!" You triumphantly revealed your secret. The guys were shrieking and congratulating the two of you on your surprise engagement. Jimin and Jungkook were playfully slapping Taehyung on the back.

He was just shaking his hand.

Your eyes were feasting on the entire living area on the other side of the room. It was a warm and cosy family room with blue accents, and the seating arrangements surprised you. Jimin can host a large party with enough comfortable chairs for everyone to relax in. Typically, his younger family members would take up a separate space, while the elders would have their own space for relaxation.

Sami laughs enthusiastically, "Oh my... Ji-Ho will be ecstatic for you, Yun. Go ahead and place your bags in your designated room. Jimin generally assigns the boys' favourite rooms, so I believe you will stay in Taehyung's room. Jungkook is downstairs, next to the swimming pool."

Jimin smiled, "Come on guys, the breakfast buffet is ready on the patio We were just waiting for you to arrive. You'll find me and Jungkook in the pool for so long "

Sami furrowed her brows and said "Oh no, not now. You can go for a swim after breakfast. I am starving. and I'm sure Tae and Yun wants to eat breakfast."

JImin smirks, "We'll also be playing board games tonight...and having a karaoke evening. So, Funsize, you and I will sing a duet."

You make a face, "Way to embarrass me. You know I can only dance well."

Taehyung pulled you against him, saying, "I heard you sing Butterfly and I think you have a great voice..." to reassure you.

Your snort is quiet; "I'm your soulmate...even if I sound like a crow you'll hear the angels of heaven singing---"

Jungkook laughed loudly as the three of you followed Jimin to your room. You felt weightless and optimistic, with no concerns in the world. You are extremely blessed to have a new family.
