My guys have practice again in a couple hours, but they are most definitely not willing to leave my side right now. Once we got in my room I went from being held tightly by Hoseok to Jimin, Tae, and Jungkook huddling close. Jimin and Tae took up either side of me on my bed, once again holding my hands while Jungkook sat behind me and started massaging my neck. It took a lot of effort but I managed to keep myself from moaning aloud. Bunny has talented hands.

Namjoon surprises me by making a suggestion. "I think you should text your friends and see if they want to see you again before we leave."

Actually, that sounds like a great idea. "You mean hang out here? In the hotel? Do you need to get approval from Sejin first?"

"Good point. I'll go let him know right now. But, you are texting them and inviting them over regardless. If need be you can go hang out at a nearby restaurant or something." I nod at him before he leaves to do just that.

Yoongi grabs my purse from the table. Jimin and Tae reluctantly let go of my hands so I can take it from him. I smile him up at him; thanking him nonverbally for helping me out. I snag my phone from the purse's depths and quickly pull up our group text.

Me: Our plane doesn't leave until midnight tonight. Did either of you want to come over and hang out for a bit? Get a chance to say goodbye?

Candace: Already in the car.

Rebecca: No, Candace I will come pick you up. I am off today so I have Joshua. Hope that's not a problem.

Me: Of course not! I would love to see him!

Rebecca: Okay, I will text you once I get in the parking lot.

It's ten am now so I am surprised at how lucky it is they both happen to be off work. "Okay, they are on their way." I am honestly excited to see them. Especially Joshua. He's the most adorable little guy.

Namjoon comes back just a few minutes later, letting me know that Sejin has okayed it, and that the security team are aware of it. But, the guys have to go now since they have another dance practice downstairs they have to prepare for. "Can I bring them by so they can see you guys in action?"

"Absolutely," Hoseok wears that sunshiney grin, but for some reason it makes me think he is up to something. I guess I will learn later if that smile had a deeper meaning or not since they are leaving now. I hug them all goodbye, and tell them I will see them in just a little bit.

A half an hour later I get the text I am expecting so I grab my phone, the hotel keycard, and head down to meet them in the lobby. When they see me Joshua squirms to be let down and runs directly into my arms. I lift him up so high he starts squealing, and I blush when I realize that we are probably bothering the guests. "Come on." I lead the way to the same convention room as before where Han-bin is stationed.

He nods his head at me. His half smile becomes a bit more pronounced when he sees Joshua in my arms. He opens the door for us and we walk right in. This time instead of silence I hear 'Fire' playing at a low volume. Joshua is squirming again so I let him down, but keep him at my side so I can get his coat and gloves off of him. Once he is free of the garments he slips from my fingers and heads directly over to the guys. I expect him to cause some kind of disruption but instead he sits down and watches them completely enamored with their performance. He even claps when they finish.

They break out of formation, each grabbing a towel and a bottle of water. Joshua gets up and heads directly to where Jimin, Tae, and Jungkook are grouped together. He wraps his little arms around Jimin's leg. Jimin turns his head, and I catch the sweetest of smiles on his face. He reaches down and ruffles the boy's hair. If that weren't enough for my heart to stutter the boy reaches up like he wants picked up, and Jimin doesn't even hesitate. Joshua wraps around him like a little monkey. Jungkook and Tae also lean in to talk to him. The interaction between them hits me directly in the solar plexus. I unintentionally mutter aloud, "I think my ovaries just exploded."

Candace's responding laugh carries through the room, and Rebecca responds with, "That is the cutest thing I think I have ever seen."

Then all my other men come in and talk to the boy. Even Yoongi seems to think the little man is adorable. I honestly wasn't certain how he would react with kids but his shy gummy smile has already made more than one appearance within the last few seconds. They break off again, and Jimin brings Joshua back over. "I think you must have lost somebody."

"I think he just wanted to make a new friend, or seven." Rebecca laughs in reply.

"He's adorable." He puts the boy down and affectionately runs his hand through his hair again.

"So are you." I somehow find myself brave enough to say.

His eyes turn warm before the guys call him back over, and he has to rejoin the ranks. I absentmindedly trace the mark on my arm. 'Save Me' begins to play and I find myself thankful that I don't have to turn my eyes off him for now as he takes center stage for the first verse.

Joshua squirms in Rebecca's arms. "You can get down, Joshua. But you have to promise me that you won't bother them while they dance."

"I pwomise." He says and even does the motion of crossing his heart.

"I'm glad I was here to see that for myself." Candace mentions.

"What do you mean?" I ask.

"Jimin with kids and animals is the cutest thing on earth. Have you seen the puppy interview?"

"There's a puppy interview?!?!" I whisper-shriek.

"Yeah, if you haven't seen it yet then you should totally watch it." She pauses for a second. "Oh and search BTS and Yeontan when you get a chance too."

"Yeontan?" I ask and she spells it out for me. "No, I mean who is that?"

"Yeontan, or Tannie, is Taehyung's pomeranian. But there are videos to show his interaction with most of the guys." I file that knowledge away in my memory for when I get a moment alone, or the guys are asleep.

Rebecca watches Joshua as he sits there patiently. I know the boy can be hell on wheels, I've seen the pictures, but apparently he has a thing for music. "Is he always like this when music is playing?"

She nods in response.

"I don't know how much it will cost, but maybe you should look into getting him involved in some kind of music lesson or something. Who knows, maybe he's musically gifted." I of all people know how it is to struggle with money but depriving the boy of the possibility somehow sits wrong with me.

"I can look into it. I am not sure I can make it work right away, but it doesn't hurt to do some research." I smile in response.

The guys go through three more songs before they deem that they have done enough for today. Joshua grabs Tae's hand this time and loudly announces, "I'm hungwy!"

Sejin, who was at another table pouring over paperwork looks up and smiles. "Then I guess we will have to do something about that. Do you like McDonald's?"

Of course the tyke nods emphatically. That action leads to Sejin getting a food order from everybody and sending a couple of the other managers out to get the food for us. The guys come over to the table we are seated at. Tae sitting down and pulling Joshua into his lap.

The little boy is a bit more antsy now that he's hungry, but still he manages to sit as still as he can while in Tae's lap. "Did you introduce yourself, Joshua?" Rebecca asks him.

He proudly nods.

I ask him. "Who's holding you?"

"TaeTae." He smiles broadly, Tae having an echoing expression on his face.

"Who am I?" Jimin asks.

"Chimchim." I mentally am laughing out loud at the fact that Jimin introduced himself as Chimchim to the little boy.

"Who am I?" Jungkook asks.

"Kookie." Not to be confused with Cooky, although they are both bunnies in my book.

All the guys except Yoongi take a turn asking the same question of him. I know they are doing it in an effort to keep his mind off his growling tummy. When Hoseok asks Joshua what his name is I expect the boy to respond with J-hope but instead he says Hobi. Then I realize that I have heard the other guys refer to him as Hobi also. I wonder if he would let me call him that too. Hoseok doesn't come off my American tongue very well, and besides that Hobi sounds more fun and fits his personality better.

Not long later the managers come in with the food, and even my stomach begins to growl loudly at the aroma. Apparently it hasn't made such a loud noise before because the guys all pause for a second, look at me, and then immediately crack up laughing. I would flip them off but with little eyes and ears present I refrain from doing so.

After eating Joshua begins to look tired so Rebecca makes the announcement that it's time to head home. Joshua toddles over to hug everyone goodbye. I'm happy he didn't forget me in the hugs he hands out, but I wouldn't have blamed him if he did.

Before she picks him up Rebecca quickly hugs me goodbye. "Don't be a stranger."

I nod. "I will try to text at least once a week."

Candace hugs me. "This level of happiness looks good on you." It's a rather sappy thing for her to say, but I definitely can't disagree with the sentiment.

The guys head to their rooms to take showers and pack. I decide that packing is a good idea, and if the plane trip were longer than an hour and a half I would probably have changed pants too. But, I can't see myself getting overly uncomfortable in jeans for that extent of time.

I am just opening up the last drawer I have to pack away when there is a knock on the door. I go to answer it, not thinking to close said drawer before I head that direction.

When I open it Hoseok waltzes into the room. He glances at the suitcase on my bed and the drawer open behind me. He heads over to it before I can stop him. He holds up a red silky chemise I had purchased not too long ago. Of course his eyes land on that one of the seven I invested in.

"Silky. Soft. This is very nice." He turns heated eyes on me.

I reach out to take it from him, and he pulls it just out of my reach. "Hobi, please give it to me!" I'm hella embarrassed, and can't contain the whine from appearing in the cadence of my voice. I also don't realize that I called him Hobi without asking him first.

"I like the way 'Hobi' sounds coming from your lips." He reaches out and glides the pad of his index finger against my lower lip. "Perhaps a bit too much."

When he pulls his hand away. I glance at his fingers and notice how long they are, and how his knuckles seem oversized on each digit. The sight conjures up thoughts that I can't say I have focused on much before. Since I'm not ready to think about them I take a step back from him. Luckily, Hobi doesn't look hurt. He simply nods and hands me the chemise.

Since he's already seen it I go ahead and pack it away. "I'm going to be a very patient man for you, Daisy. I won't lie and say it will be easy. But, I won't rush this between us." He pulls me close again and kisses my forehead. "Finish getting packed. I'll get everyone gathered together so we can play games or something in the few hours we have remaining." For some reason I don't expect him back all that soon. Although I do think he is going to gather everyone together, just like he said.

Before I close out the chapter.  I obviously couldn't make a collage with the guys with Joshua since this is all fictional.  But, I absolutely adore them with kids and animals alike.  So, I will leave you with this cute collage I made of them with kids.
