When we get back to the house I'm not surprised that Sejin runs off to make some business calls. Joon even informs me that they are calling the owners of the rental to make sure that they have approval to do the Vlive here. Immediately I find myself worrying that they could say no. Instead of dwelling on that possibility however I decide to quickly go upstairs and get presentable just in case we are able to do the Vlive tonight.

While in the shower I find myself wishing I could wash away all my concerns down the drain like I can the grime and sweat from the day. I knew we would be caught in public at some point, and I am not regretting that it happened. I just wish the fan in question had caught a different moment. I wish it was something that couldn't be interpreted poorly. I know people are going to believe what they want to, but that doesn't make it any less disappointing and concerning for me.

When I'm dressed I am not really surprised to get a knock on my door. Behind it I find Yoongi, Hobi, and Tae. Yoongi goes into the bathroom and grabs the hair dryer. Hobi kisses me on the forehead before nodding and going in to take a shower himself. I've learned quickly to leave my makeup and hair brush in my room since we have been sharing the bathroom. Yoongi silently escorts me to the desk chair and begins to blow dry my hair for me. I sigh at the comforting feel of his fingers weaving into my locks as he lifts a handful of strands so he can dry my hair in sections. Once my hair is no longer drenching wet, but still a tad damp Tae adds a styling glaze to my hair. "I like your natural curls. I'm just adding this to make them more defined."



I smile up at him. Not only does this beautiful man have stylish fashion sense, eclectic taste in music, and a charming boxy smile. He also apparently has great hairstyling tips.

He's still playing with my hair when Hobi is coming out of the bathroom, and there is another knock at the door. Hobi lets Jimin in, and it's immediately obvious that he just got ready himself. "Daisy, can I do your makeup?" He excitedly asks.

Shouldn't I find it weird that one of my soulmates not only wants to do my makeup, but is probably more proficient at said makeup then I am? I shrug in acceptance. "I suppose so."

"I'm only going to apply light foundation, because I love your freckles." He punctuates the comment with a kiss to my nose. I haven't looked around since I started getting this salon-like treatment, but I know the others are all hovering on the mattress of my bed.

Jimin is just finishing up when there is another knock at my door. I probably should have just suggested leaving it open at this point. I'm not surprised to find Joon on the other side. "We got approval, and we are setting up in the living area of the house. We are going to set the camera up by the stairs. The lens will be capturing the round table and beyond. We figured we would have you sitting at the table with Jk and the rest of us would be hovering in the background."

I swallow away my nervousness and nod.

Before we sit down they all suggest letting Army start joining first before I ever appear on screen. I honestly prefer this idea over already sitting there waiting, so I definitely don't argue.

After about half of a minute has elapsed they start greeting the viewers. "Is the picture that was posted real?" Joon reads aloud.

Jin looks over at me and nods.

I take this as my cue to come in front of the camera and sit down beside Jk. "Hello, Army, this is me! You are officially seeing Daisy, the soulmate of BTS for the first time. I kind of hate that it's under these circumstances though. To answer that question you can obviously tell that I am the same person in that picture. The moment that picture was taken however was completely taken out of context."

Jk explains what happened prior to me swatting him. I take over when he gets to the part where he stopped. "Once I got off his back I playfully swatted at him for being a competitive bunny and for not warning me that he was going to take off like that. Please understand I would never ever hit any of them in anger. Not to mention the fact that while I might be a redhead and can occasionally have the temper often associated with my hair color, it is still exceptionally difficult to get me so angry that I want to physically hurt someone."

"Oh, I just saw a question. Someone asked if you were that angry at," he pauses to read a screen name. Specifically her Twitter screen name. The one who took and leaked the picture.

"I'm not angry at her. I understand why someone would be jealous of me having their attention like I do. But Army has their attention in a different way also. Army was here before me, and I would never take away the seven of them from the fans like that. I am upset and hurt that she would share a picture thinking I would hurt any of them like that though."

Jk interrupts me. "I've had mosquito bites that hurt worse than that swat."

While I am thankful for the comment I still can't keep myself from rolling my eyes in response. "To reiterate my answer to the question. No, I am not angry at her." I nearly mention that I am probably more angry at the zoo, but think that perhaps that shouldn't be mentioned right now.

"Aside from that we had a wonderful time at the zoo today. We took a lot of photos. Did you want to see them?"

I am already anticipating the affirmative responses and Jk snags Jin's phone to start uploading them to instagram.

"While he's doing that do any of you have any other questions for me? I realize this was really last minute, so you all probably didn't have a chance to prepare yourselves."

A question pops asking us how long we will still be in Brazil for. Before I can answer Joon chooses to field the question. "We won't disclose the exact time frame that we will be staying. But, we are heading directly to Seoul after this vacation is over."

"'Can you give us a tour of the place you are staying?'" I read. "Unfortunately, we only have permission to film this particular location from the owners. Perhaps we can take some photos for you and share them over instagram and other social media sites. It's something we will have to ask about."

I peruse over the questions again. "'Does J-Hope still call you Daisy-Daze?' Thankfully, he hasn't done so for a bit now." He comes up behind me and puts his hands on my shoulder. I crook my finger at him in a come here motion and knock his head with my knuckles a couple times. "Knock on wood."

"Ya! That was unnecessary. I have been doing good calling you Petal instead." Hobi announces. I'm certain he did this on purpose, and I am pretty confident it's confirmed when someone asks, "'Why Petal?'" He responds with an eager expression on his face. "I told her she is my 'Piece of Peace' and since a piece of a flower is a petal that is what I would call her from here on out."

I see a lot of 'awws' and 'uwus' in chat. "I think he was wanting that reaction, Army. He's a showoff."

He shrugs in a helpless 'what can you do' kind of gesture. I'm really not surprised that someone asks if any of the others have a nickname for me. That question gets dodged however. Tae simply stating. "We want to share our happiness with you, Army. We also want to keep some things just between us."

I know Jk was done awhile ago, but he was acting like he was still fidgeting with Jin's phone. I take the phone from Jk and hand it back to Jin. "I still want copies by the way."

"Of course, Daisy." He smiles brightly at me.

"So, I realize this was a short Vlive, and we weren't really prepared for it. But, hopefully next time we can plan something better for you." We all hold out finger hearts before Joon shuts down the stream.

I'm too nervous to check social media. But my guys don't have any such qualms it seems. They all silently scroll through the info so I quickly decide to text the girls. It isn't terribly late so hopefully they are still awake.

Me: Hey you two! How goes?

Candace: How goes? You are frickin' trending, and not in a good way!

Rebecca: Trending? What's going on?

Candace: Some fan caught a picture of Daisy where it looks like she is smacking Jungkook.

Rebecca: Oooh that's not good.

Me: No, but hopefully the Vlive we just did will help clear things up a bit.

Candace: Oh! You actually showed your face to the public?

Me: I mean it was partially shown for me. And I would eventually end up being seen anyways.

Rebecca: True enough. I hope it helped.

Me: Me too! The guys are all perusing social media right now. I'm too nervous to look. And before you take it upon yourself to do so Candace, please don't! I'll find out what I need to know from one of them.

Candace: You take away all my fun! :(

Me: Cute, but not going to change my mind.

Candace: Er, did you know that one of them took a video of you?

Me: What?!?!

Candace: Yeah you are in some kind of bunny huddle.

Me: Omg they caught a video of me in the fluffle cuddle?

Rebecca: Omg, Candace please send this I need to see.

Candace: Fluffle cuddle? Is that what you are calling it. And here Rebecca. [Insert video link here]

Me: A group of bunnies is called a fluffle. If you don't believe me look it up!

Rebecca: OMG! This is cuteness overload! And, Candace, she isn't wrong about the fluffle.

Candace: And I just finished googling it... It sounds like it's not a thing. Sorry not sorry for not believing.

Me: I should probably go now. Start winding down for the night.

Candace: And picking a bedmate? ;)

Me: :P

Rebecca: Take care of you!

Me: Take care of you both, and give Joshua my love. <3

I put my phone away and look around the room, wondering who the guilty culprit might be. "Who took the video of me with the bunnies?" Not about to divert the conversation with the definition of a fluffle right now.

Jimin, Tae, and Jk all point directly at Hobi.

I'm really not surprised. Because it's Hobi I decide to make him sweat a little and give him my best death glare. "I'm sorry, Daisy. I thought you would want that captured so you could watch it again later."

"You do realize that some Army members are probably going to make Daisy compilations and include that particular video?" I arch an eyebrow at him, folding my arms over my chest.

"I...I..."

"You also realize that you will be sending me a copy of said video post haste?"

"Oh..uh..of course. I can do that, Petal." He nods as he begins typing into his phone. I notice his hands are practically shaking, and I nearly end up laughing and breaking the charade.

"Because, I definitely need to see that epic moment of cuteness from another perspective." I add a bit of cheer to my voice. Then add even more when I say. "Thank you so much, Hobi, for thinking to record that for me." I hurdle myself his direction, wrapping my arms around him. I catch him completely off guard and he almost drops his phone.

"Uh... You aren't mad?" He looks down at me in confusion.

I smirk at him. "Why would I be?'

Then a litany of Korean words are spouting from his lips as he shrugs himself out of my arms. I am not sure what to make of it until the others begin to laugh. Hell, Jimin even falls off the couch onto the floor. That particular man of mine needs safety gear and a seat belt wherever he is seated.

"Does that mean I am in trouble now?" I arch my eyebrows to express my confusion.

"You aren't in trouble. You ARE trouble." He grumbles as he pushes past me and heads upstairs.

I immediately worry that he is mad at my stunt before Joon intercedes. "He's not actually mad. Just confused that you were able to pull that off so easily. He's only taking off so he can have some time to wrap his head around it."

"So, tell me... How bad is it? Has the negative percentage increased or decreased since the Vlive?"
