And would it be alright if I
I pulled you closer...

The Bangtan group made an early live appearance at a local television network Arirang Tower, a station that broadcasts mainly in Korean-English for a wider international audience, talking about the success of their latest Album, their coveted Billboard Award nominations and coming performances and the remaining dates of the Wings Tours that the epilogue final concert back in Seoul sometime in December.

They went for their early vocal and dance rehearsal and had a photoshoot.

BTS can't wait to go on their extended break that is coming up.

During their unit photoshoot where Yoongi, Jin and Taehyung will be participating, Taehyung and the boys were teasing and bickering as normal when suddenly he felt a deep sadness seeps through his mental fields.

He started to inhale deeply, his heart started to palpitate, and his eyes become teary. All because the thought about leaving his soulmate became too much for him. Yoongi saw his distress and quickly call Jin attention.

Yoongi look and call out to the eldest Huyng while taking Taehuyng discreetly on the elbow and led him out of the studio for fresh air.

Outside in the hallway, away from any activity, Yoongi looks at a panting and sobbing Taehyung.

Yoongi, with concern lace on his voice," Taehyung, what's wrong? "

Jin ran out of the door look around until he saw the younger huyngs far in the hallway with Yoongi rubbing Taehyungs shoulders which seem to be crying.

Jin frantic, "My word, what's the matter Taehyung, is it your stomach?"

Taehtyung just shook his head and tried to wipe away the tears on his cheeks.

"I don't know what happened. All of a sudden, I felt so overwhelmed with sadness thinking about my girl leaving tomorrow...I don't want her to go, but she must leave...my heart can't understand...I don't know?"

"O gosh, Tae, I know how you feel about leaving your sweetheart; try to spend enough hours with her. It helps to settle the bond for separation...It would be best if you had her presence more than ever," Jin suggested. Yoongi nod cause he didn't have a soulmate cause a few months ago, he half bonded with a girl he knew might be his soulmate, but that is a story for another time. Jin is the only one of the members that will understand what V-Hyung is going through.

Jin tried to console him," If you are this distress, your Yunru will experience the same emotions at this moment. We have to be careful about what we let out freely. Try to filter some negative emotions, or your soulmate might experience the after-effects. It's difficult, but with the time, you will be able to handle it."

Yoongie inwardly snorts, please as if Jin could handle being away from his soulmate. He a handful without his girl. Luckily poor RM can handle him.

Taehuyng wiped his eyes and inhaled deeply to get himself ready for the rest of the shoot. He cannot expose himself like that.

Sejin and another female manager Ms Cheong quickly entered the scene with worried expressions. They thought something seriously is wrong with Taehyung. A few months ago, he went through depression and was sad all the time.

But when he met Yunru, his cute soulmate, light and brightness shined on him. He is very playful, happy, and laughs a lot; his relationship with Jungkook has soared, that the rest of the members couldn't be happier.

They're so appreciative of Yunru for appearing at the right time. They wish she stayed in Seoul with a flexible career.

Sejin worried," What's wrong with Taehyung?"

Jin smiled at Sejin, " He was a little overwhelmed with the knowledge that his soulmate is leaving tomorrow?

Sejin furrow his brows, " O! Is her flight finalised?"

Taehuyng shook his head, but his heart is still racing in his chest; biting his bottom lip, he nods, " I ...think so...I don't know how to deal with her leaving ...please help me." his eyes started again to water, wiping it vigorously. Jin and Yoongi rub his back and shoulders to comfort him until Sejin told the two Hyungs to go back in and check on the others before they become suspicious.

Jin look at Taehyung," Will you be okay?"

Taehuyng nod, "I'll be ok, thanks, Hyung..."

Ms Cheong smile," I never met my soulmate, but Taehyung, you are so lucky to meet her in your early 20's. You'll know how to deal with separation later. Your bond will have settled nicely...think of how much she loves you, how much she also wants to be with you right now..."

Taehuyng gave them a watery smile," Thanks, noona, Sejin -Hyung...I'm just going to feel a little empty without her..." He smiled a little at Sejin-Hyung"...will I be allowed to marry early, Sejin-Hyung" he snickers at
Ms Cheong and Sejin eyes widen, and their jaws dropped a little.

Sejin gives Taehyung shoulders a little shove," Don't be funny?..Do you want Bang Pd to get a heart attack..come, let's go finish the shoot so that you can see your girl sooner" he draped his arm around Taehyung shoulders and led him back.

Taehuyng nod, happy to look forward to seeing his girl, and follow them. The makeup artist quickly got him under their care and redid his make-up.

He was sitting in the chairs with Jungkook watching Jhope and Yoongi -hyungs goofing around in front of the camera.

He was still contemplating how to make his date with Y/n more memorable and romantic. The weather is nice, and the air is clearer. They only have a few hours to enjoy each others company.

He must ask for advice from his Hyungs. Suddenly he felt a wave of deep sadness, but he knew its not his emotions...omg, its Y/n. He quickly took out his cell phone and dialled her number...

Before she could even greet ...He jump the gun..

OMG, darling...are you alright. We were rounding off with the shoot when I felt your distressing emotions...is something a matter..." his deep, soulful voice sound rushed.

"H..hi Taelove, I just...LiuMei and I talked a..and I... all of a sudden started missing you...and the fact that you're going on tour and I have to go back to Beijing...it was suddenly too much for me, and I guess I cried a little..." Taehuyng could hear a sniffling sound. His heart constricted at hearing the sadness in her voice.

"OMG, love, Jin and Yoongi had to take me out of the studio cause I happened to get the same emotions a while ago. I was so sad about leaving you...but I had to console myself that we will see each other before the month is over. That strengthens me...I love you so much, Yunru" He sadly whispered. He looked at a smirking Jungkook. He just wrinkled his nose, and Jungkook made kissy faces to him.

"I love you too, so much ..." you head her softly whisper with deep affection, your legs felt like goo" and do tell your dear parents that I appreciate their effort in making me feel so welcome. I like your siblings. Eonjin text me also." Taehyung chuckle. His family is crazy about her. His parents don't want them to date for too long. They must get married soon or after they both complete their studies.

"She likes you a lot, even Jeong... said he is more handsome than me and you're supposed to be his soulmate...You to cute for a weirdo like me," he annoyedly admitted. But he wasn't impressed with his brother...he'll kill him later. Nobody is allowed to look at his girl. Jimin and Jhope know by now.

"Are we still one to meet each other at 1 pm?"She asked. You look at the time, and it seems that the shoot will take an hour more to complete. Namjoon and Jhope are doing a unit shoot now. They still need their individual shoots.

"Of cause...nothing will keep me from seeing you. We only have today cause tomorrow you need to get ready to leave. When's your flight?" He asked. You could sense the sadness in his voice.

"Um, about that... about 8 pm, but LiuMei wanted me to leave on Monday. She wants to spend time with me tomorrow. It seems my Internship orientation is Wednesday. I can still spend a full day with my family before heading to
Shanghai..so yeah, that's the plan," She informed him. His mind is working overtime now. Jin said they must spend a lot of hours in each other's presence to settle the bond when they intend to separate for a long period of time.

So,he mentally work out a solution that will suit both of them. He needs extra planning now. She said she is leaving on Monday. Tomorrow is Sunday, so she needs to spend some time with LiuMei also. He needs his boys to help him plan this. He quickly made up his mind.

"Wow... significant change of plans...Yunru darling, I'll come to get you latest at 2 pm, I'm taking you somewhere...pack an overnight bag...love you! "

He will plan something memorable for his date-it is Saturday today.

Yoongi-Hyung, Jimin and Jungkook were goofing around, making faces at Namjoons' individual poses. Namjoon smile and grin at the two silly boys.

Jungkook smirks," Ok loverboy, hows' our little noona doing?"

Taehyung smile brightly, grinning from ear to ear,"She's great. My family loves her. I'm thinking of a memorable date. I wanted to spend time with her at my penthouse in Guri, but I'm a little afraid we will be exposed. Then I thought about my beach condo in Jeju Island. I want her to experience the ocean."

Yoongi's eyes lit up". Take your little fun-size to Busan. I'll quickly organise the perfect date for you two, for how long".

Taehyung smirks," Overnight...I need more hours in her presence."

Jimins' eyes twinkle, and he gave Taehyung a teasing wink." O la, what do we have here, my male soulmate is growing up," waggling his eyebrows to a Taehyng that looks disgusting at his younger hyung ,the implied innuendos.

"O gross Jimin, we are not ready for that step yet...get that mind out of the gutter," He shoves Jimins" shoulders good-naturedly.

Jimin and Yoongi clap hands with teasing eyes. Jungkook look peeved at Jimin, but Taehyung is so unbothered. He and his girl know what they want; it might be difficult for them with the red gold string to be untempted. But they need the bond to be settled, and less than four hours in the presence of each other will not do.

Yoongi took out his phone, and he and Taehyung move away to do some planning. Yoongi-Hyung is very good at romantic stuff, and few people know that. Not even the ARMY. He even came up with exciting getaways for the boys and Jin and his soulmate. He trusts his Hyung.

..........

Yunru pov.

You look in shock at your phone a few seconds after Taehyung hung up. You look at yourself in the restroom mirror and redo your makeup, erasing any signs of what conspired a moment ago.

You feel the excitement in the air cause you can't wait to see your love.

You found LiuMei  sitting at the  indoor bar with
your refreshing cocktail. She looks up and smiles," You look better than before?"

You take a seat next to her overlooking the magnificent outdoor scenery" Taehyung called; he felt my distress and comforted me, hearing his voice made me relax.'

LiuMei smile brightly, " Aww, he is so cute; Yunru marry him already...I want to be a fly on the wall when you tell Dylan about him."

You look at her, biting your bottom lip with a worried expression," I'm not going to tell him that its Taehyung...LuiMei...everything about me is a competition with Dyl; imagine him finding out I'm mated to a superstar who has reached the pinnacle of success already and is gaining more fame each moment; they are regarded as Korea national treasure. Dyl won't be able to compete with that...I'm going to use the same lie as I did for you. I can't expose Taehyung like that."

LiuMei nod; she knows Dylan. " He would be a stumbling block in your relationship even if he has his own soulmate who loves him. He is actually too obsessed with you. You couldn't even date in your freshmen year. Remember Lee Kang, who gave you flowers every day, the big confession with flowers and balloons he displayed with all the first-year boys serenading you. How Dylan took him was livid with the open display of affection. You become the shyest, most popular girl instantly in our year, Even won Miss Popularity for that semester."

You look horrified as you remember that fateful valentines' day." OMG, LiuMei, that was the most embarrassing day for me. Lee was so cute...a science nerd but so attentive and kind. I really liked his personality and the way he treated me...Dylan made me so mad that day. His friends did some number on Lee... he got the message and transferred uni's. That was sad. No, how do you think Dylan will react finding out I'm officially over him. LiuMei ...I Love my soulmate...he loves me, and we want to be together...I don't want to lose him."

LiuMei's eyes narrow in determination," You won't lose him. Your love is mutual. There no way in hell I'm going to let Dylan interfere with your relationship. Taehuyng found real and genuine love. It isn't easy to find genuine love as an idol. Girl wants your money and fame. You have money, and you're about to get more famous. So yeah' Taehyung loves you, and Bighit already made background checks on you so, nothing to hide"

You inhale deeply," O... um, I forgot to tell you, Taehyung has planned something unexpected. He'll fetch me at 2 pm, and we might not come back before tomorrow morning; I'm so sorry, LiuMei, can we plan something when I get back. I really want to settle this bond. We need more hours together, and today would do as I leave Monday?"

LiuMei eyes became wide, and her jaw drops from excitement" OMG Yunru... you going to spend the night with Taehyung...o gosh."

You look horrified at what she tries to imply," OMG LiuMei..no..no..we are not ready for that...jeez girl...are you the "Jimin" in my life...Taelove and I want to wait...stop smirking like that... I know what you are thinking"you shove your finger in her face.

LiuMei waggles her eyebrows," O yeah, what I'm I thinking, Ms mindreader."

You pull a face," O common..whatever your thinking now...I don't wanna know... stop looking to me like that ...you know my mom will kill me...you better keep that little mouth of yours. otherwise, we'll be forced to get married."

LiuMei laughs loudly," OMG, did you see your face...Yunru you so innocent."

You look at her with mock disgust," Excuse me...and you not"

LiuMei smile smugly," Well, I've at least dated three boys in my lifetime and almost did it with my last one when I was 18 years but the darn Moral codes...prevented me. So, technically I'm not 100% innocent like you. You only dated Dylan in middle school...middle school!!!!"

You laugh." Yeah, when we were 13-14 years. How could I date anyone with a parol officer in my life? At your 21st birthday celebration, I really liked to know your cousin. Rawoon ,LiuMei he was interested in me, but-"

LiuMei snorts," -Dylan?'

You nod," Exactly!"

"Taehuyng will have fierce competition. I can't wait to see it played out. You the female lead, Taehyung the male lead and Dylan the second lead. Is there anyone that wants Taehyung that will be your competition?" She mused.

You raise your eyes at her," The entire Chinese ARMY and TaehyUng stans...I'm scared LiuMei, Bighit must never reveal my name or face or association with Taehyung."

LiuMei drank the last drop out of her glass and looked at you," So what are you going to pack for your little rendezvous."

You give her a little stink eye and smile at her snickering face," Let me text this dork."

You quickly message Taehyung about clothing preferences. He quickly responded to your text.

You look wide eyed at LiuMei and smile," It's a beach trip somewhere, so swimwear and the usual. Oh, LiuMei, I love the ocean. When I come here with you, let us make a girl trip to Busan, ok or Jeju island. Ok"

LiuMei excitement, "Oh gosh, It's so exciting. Aww...take photos, please."

"I can but will never send it, but what if papparazi's follow us wherever we go, LiuMei? We promise Bang Pd no dating rumours or scandals. Jimin is the one who creates more scandals than anyone. Taehyung said Jungkook was almost exposed in one with an American girl before his debut. He actually dated the girl during his trip in USA for dance lessons. The maknae-line cause most of the scandals. Taehyungs' constantly ships with Lisa from Blackpink." You look worried.

LiuMei pull a face," Don't worry, he doesn't like her, but you'll have competition if she really wants to go after him?"

You start feeling sick to your stomach," LiuMei, I don't know how to fight for a guy...I...don't want to lose him...It will kill me."

LiuMei smile triumphantly," ARMY loves BTS...we will love their soulmates as long as you treat them right. So, we'll , have your back.'

You groan," urgh, so much
