Forever Together

Chapter 35

Stasia was nursing Ami when Yoongi walked into her room, "hey Babe, what's up?"

"Nothing. I just have some news, and I'm not sure how to tell you."  

"Oh, uh, let me finish up really quickly, and then we can talk." 

He nodded his head, and she finished nursing Ami. She put her on the rug with her toys, and she patted the spot next to her on the bed, "Babe, come tell me what's going on."

 He ran his hand down his face and sighed, "The company just announced we are going on tour again."

"Oh really, that's awesome! I know y'all love touring."

"We do, but the issue is, it's a world tour, and we'll be gone for almost a year."

Her face fell; she knew this was going to happen. It's their job, but she and Ami were going to miss them like crazy. They hadn't been apart since the day of their concert, and her life changed forever. "Oh, well, we'll miss you a lot. But I'm happy for you guys," she said, truly meaning that.

He looked down at his feet, his head in his hands. " Oh, I thought you and Ami might go with us. I didn't realize that you would just want to stay here for the year we were gone." His voice cracked at the end.

She kneeled down in front of him and took his hands in mine, "Yoongs, Babe." He finally looked at her, and he had tears in his eyes. Stasia wiped his tears away. "Babe, I would gladly follow you anywhere in the world—to the ends of the Earth and beyond. You are stuck with me forever, remember?"

"Really, you want to go with us?"

"I'm a little annoyed that you are so surprised by that. I thought you just didn't want me to go because of Ami."

"I can't go a day without seeing my girls," then he kissed her. Before she could take it any further, Ami reminded her that she was there and that they were NOT paying enough attention to her. 

"Ok, kid, sheesh. I just wanted to make out with your Appa Yoongi for a bit, but fffiiiinnnneeeee, we'll pay attention to you," she said, kissing her and tickling her tummy. She loved this little girl so much. She was absolute perfection, with the exception that she loved her Appa more than her Mom. She'll never forgive her for that one. 

Stasia was in the kitchen cooking dinner, and Aimes was in her highchair making an absolute mess out of her meal. Jin walked in and sniffed the air, "What are you cooking? It smells delicious." He kissed Aimes on the head, and she proceeded to give him a taste of her food. Jin, like the champ he is, took a bite and hummed and moaned the whole time.

"I'm making shrimp scampi, a favorite dish of mine. Baked potatoes and asparagus are in the oven. Can you call the guys? It'll be ready in just a minute," she asked as she was flipping the shrimp.

Ten minutes later, they were sitting at the table eating. Hobi was feeding Ami, and Stasia was pretty sure that he hadn't gotten a bite to eat for himself. She was taking everything. Tae noticed and took her, "Hobi-Hyung, eat. I'll feed her." Then, she proceeded to eat most of Tae's food. That child was a bottomless pit. 

After dinner, they went to the living room and put on a Disney cartoon. Ami was on the floor with the Maknae line, and Stasia was on the couch, lying in Joon's lap. She was getting a little too into the movie, and she almost missed Aimes walking for the first time. Then she heard Jimin say, "That's it. Come to Appa." 

Jungkook squealed, "Look at my big girl, you can do it. Go to Appa Tae and Appa Jimin." Then Ami took her first step and then three more. She made it to Tae and Jimin before she fell on her butt. 

Stasia couldn't contain her tears. Her daughter just walked for the first time. It was going by so fast, and she remembered the day they brought her home. Yoongi hovered as he did, and the other six were so in love with her but scared because she was so tiny. They were so great with her, and she just wished that Noah could be there to see this. She loved BTS, all seven of them, but Noah will always have some of her heart. 

Jungkook took her to get her bathed and ready for bed. Stasia nursed her, and then she fell asleep in her arms. She looked at Kook and said, " Do you care if she sleeps with us? I just, I just don't want to be away from her. It's going by so fast." 

He kissed her forehead and Ami's, "I'd love nothing more than to wake up to my girls." In the morning they woke up to Ami saying, "Appa Koo, Appa Koo," they just looked at each other. A big smile covered their faces.

"Did she just say what I think she said?" He asked.

"I think she did, Appa Koo."

"Appa Koo, Koo, Koo," Ami kept yelling. 

"This is one of the happiest days of my life, and I have to get this on video." He pulled out his phone and spent the next ten minutes recording Aimes talking. When he uploaded the video, it broke Twitter again.
