Jin stared at their van in awe, slack jawed.

From the outside it looked just like a normal Hyundai Palisade, but the back door was wide open so Jin could see the interior of the car, decorated lavishly to the point of being slightly ridiculous.

Chains of pink and red construction paper hearts dangled from where they were taped to the low ceiling, tickling Jin's face as Namjoon set him down gently in the backseat and buckled him in. The dull grey seats had been covered with Bt21 blankets, the characters on the blanket indicating where each member should sit, and an assortment of various pillows were strewn about the car. The dark navy curtains that normally covered the windows had been replaced by hot pink curtains with a little cupcake pattern. And to top it all off there was glitter everywhere, as if it had rained glitter inside the car while they were in the sauna. The seats, the floor, the door handles, everything was covered in a shimmery golden dust.

"Do you like it? Are you surprised?" Jungkook asked excitedly, herding his lovers into the car and shutting the door behind them, anxious to keep the real world out of their little bubble of love.

"I-" Jin continued to look around the car in awe, locking eyes with Hoseok in the rearview mirror. "When did you do all this? The car was normal earlier!"

"Magic." Hoseok winked in the mirror, grinning mischievously and starting up the car instead of answering properly.

"Can I tell him?" Jimin pleaded, tugging at Hoseok's arm impatiently.

"Sure."

"Hobi hyung and I decorated while you were in the showers!" Jimin turned around from where he was sitting in the passenger seat to beam widely at Jin, extremely proud of their stealthiness. "We had all the stuff in the trunk!"

"Jungkook and I made the heart streamers last night!" Taehyung piped in proudly.

"I was hoping we could make some 3-D designs out of the hearts, but I fell asleep," Jungkook admitted sheepishly. "I'm sorry."

"Don't apologize, baby." Jin reached behind Namjoon to cup the back of Jungkook's neck soothingly. "The hearts are beautiful. Thank you for doing this for me, I- I don't even know what to say." Jin felt himself tearing up, and Yoongi immediately reached forward, gently massaging his shoulder to comfort him.

"Don't cry hyung, then I'll have to cry," the eldest rapper pouted, fully intent on keeping his promise to never let his lovers cry alone.

"I just- thank you." Jin smiled softly, his heart feeling so full of love for his boyfriends he thought it was going to burst. "What did I do to deserve you all?"

"I think the question is what did we do to deserve you?" Namjoon chuckled, leaning over to peck his hyung's cheek. "You're nothing short of an angel, hyung. We're so lucky to have you in our lives."

"I don't know what I'd do without you in my life," Yoongi strained against his seatbelt so he could speak softly in Jin's ear, like he was sharing secret affections just for his hyung. "Honestly, I'd probably be dead."

"Yoongi!" Jin turned around in his seat to reprimand his lover for joking about such a serious topic, but Yoongi was smiling at him adoringly, immense gratitude glittering genuinely in his eyes.

"You mean the world to me, hyung." Yoongi whispered, his warm breath tickling the back of Jin's neck. Yoongi moved his hands from Jin's shoulders to wrap around his upper body in a loose hug and effectively squashed his cheek against the headrest that separated him from Jin.

"We love you so much," Jungkook added, blowing a kiss to his eldest hyung which Jin caught and pressed to his chest.

"I really purple you, Jin hyung," Taehyung said sweetly, joining in on the praisefest.
