The flight to Jeju wasn't long at all, I was so glad we'd be getting some time away and staying somewhere, what shocked me more was that the airport wasn't packed with fans. I was able to enjoy the privately chartered plane ride with the guys, and it made me even more happy to know they were able to be relaxed and at ease when we boarded.
The Airport was surprisingly empty when we landed, it was nice and quiet. We followed the managers and body guards to the waiting SUV's. I got into a car with the Maknae line, due to Jimin giving the older members pouts, and JK looking sad, Tae's pouty muttering of needing me near him because he wasn't feeling well pushed the older members to agree that I should ride with the younger three.

"Are you really sick?" I asked as I settled into the seat next to him. He held my hand and I heard the other two laughing behind us as Tae just gave me a huge boxy smile.

"I would never play such tricks.... I just am feeling a lot better with you here. Close." He grinned and I tried to hold back my own laugh as the other two just seemed to laugh harder.

"They know he does this, but they still fall for it. It's the benefits of being a part of the Manake line." Jimin smirked.

"Yep. Being the younger members, we get away with a lot of silly stuff. Petty things too." Jungkook giggled.

"Kookie gets the most benefit though, that he can't deny." Tae added, resting his head against mine for a moment as the car moved.

"True. Even Tae and I give into him. He really has us all whipped with that cute little bunny face." Jimin suddenly started to squish JK's face.
"Stap!" JK tried to shoo him away, but he also didn't seem to be trying very hard.

"Oh come on, show Katsi Nuna that face, look at that bunny boy face. It's to Cute!" Jimin continued to squish and tease JK, who actually seemed to be enjoying the attention, despite him pushing Jimin slightly away from him and telling him to stop.
Eventually it quieted down and I settled more against Tae. He smiled, and startled me a little as I thought he might have been asleep. He pointed out the window, we were passing open fields by the water. The view was amazing.

"Wow.." I let out without noticing. We pulled into a long gravel road that got us closer to the water. There on a small hillside were four two story houses in a line. They looked the same, as we got closer. We pulled up and the SUV stopped. There was another house on the opposite side, apparently staff and body guards were going to be staying there. Four more SUV's pulled up and the keys to 3 of them were handed over to Jin, Yoongi, and Hoseok.
We got out of the car, Tae finally releasing my hand, I missed his warmth almost instantly. Jimin held my hand as we walked up to the others.

"But our bags?" I questioned.

"Don't worry about it." He replied to me with a smile. "So, what's the plan?" He asked.

"Well, you have shooting tomorrow, so we have today to adjust and get settled at least. The four houses are ours. The slightly smaller one on the end to the far right only has one bedroom. That house will be Katsi's, and if she wants one of us to stay the night, we can. But not without her saying yes. And let's agree not to hound her. Okay?" Namjoon said.
"We have a pool, three hot tubs, the lake, there are some paddle boats and even a few motor boats. Jin, you can fish if you want." Namjoon smirked at the oldest who was elated, nodding with a big happy grin on his worldwide handsome face.

"Come on Katsi. Let's get you settled." Tae said as he held my hand and led me towards the small home at the end.

"Wait up, I have the keys." Namjoon pointed out as he jogged over. He put the key into the door and opened it.
"Tae, why don't you go get your things and move to the house with Jimin, or find out where JK is bunking for the next two weeks and go get your stuff settled. We'll be having a catered dinner tonight out by the lake. So dress nicely, but please don't overdo it." Namjoon instructed him. Tae pouted but turned to me and gave me a soft kiss to my lips before he parted- walking back to the others up the path.
Namjoon helped me get my things inside, shutting the door behind us. The home was cute, inside to the right was a shoe cabinet, on the floor were wrapped slippers that were for the guests to use when they booked these homes. There was a staircase to the left, moving forward was the living room which led into the open kitchen and dining room area. The deck on this house was larger than the others and expanded the whole width of the house.

"Wow, this is cute." I muttered as we walked through. The color scheme seemed to be blue and light gray throughout the bottom floor, when we got upstairs it shifted to white and gray. There was a bathroom upstairs, large tub, and a standing shower. The bedroom was the only room up there, large windows with white curtains, the bed was a King with gray and white bedding, Dark blue pillows rested on the bed and in the chair by the balcony. It was a small one but the doors opened up and allowed us to step out onto a small area that overlooked the property all the way down to the lake.

"You like it?" Namjoon asked. I turned, shutting the balcony doors behind me.

"This is beautiful." I replied. He smiled and nodded, setting my bags to the side by the door.

"I would like to ask for the night with you, but I think tonight it's going to be all of us, and you can choose who you want here with you. I would like to take you on a bike date tomorrow though. It's not going to be warm weather for too much longer. Would you like to go on a bike date with me?" He asked, his dimples showing proudly.

"I would love to." I replied with a smile.

"Good." He said, stepping a little closer. He lifted my chin with his hand and leaned down, pressing his soft succulent lips to mine. Namjoon was equally passionate as he was intense, and each time I kissed him I was always left wanting more, craving more from him. He left me a bit breathless when he pulled away. I smiled and followed behind him as we left the room.
"I'll go back and unpack. Why don't you rest, unpack and we'll see you in a little while." He said as we made it back down the stairs to the front door.

"Okay. I'll see you all in a bit." I gave him a quick peck on the lips and he smiled down at me as he let himself out of the house, giving a little wave as he closed the door behind him. I grabbed a bottle of water from the fridge, which had only water in it at the moment. Staff said the food being delivered was running late, understandable considering we seemed to be out in the middle of nowhere on the coast. I went back upstairs, opening the water and taking a sip before setting it on the bedside table. I started to unpack my things and get settled.
It didn't take me long to unpack, I didn't exactly have a lot after all. Staff came by after I got downstairs and left me groceries, I put them away and decided to go check on the guys after.

I walked along the cemented path that connected the homes, Jimin ran outside with a paper in his hand and nearly tackled me with a hug.
"Katsi! I'm going to be shooting at the Snoopy Garden! Come with me, we I can film, and then we can have a date." He smiled cutely, clearly excited about this shoot.

"When is it?" I asked.

"In a few days. I just noticed the script for that day and I tried to tell Tae but he was listening to his Jazz music and ignoring me.. like a brat." Jimin pouted. "So you'll come with me?" He asked again, making me giggle as he wiggled his brows.

"Yes, I'll come with you. I've never been. My only stipulation is that we take lots of photos with Snoopy and the gang." I replied with a grin.

"It's a date then, babe." He chuckled and winked as he walked backwards a ways, till he ran into Jin. Jin looked at him and tustled Jimin's hair. Jimin giggled and bounced up to kiss Jin on the cheek. Jimin ran off giggling while Jin just shook his head and walked over to me.

"He's always affectionate when he's super happy." Jin smiled, handing me a bag. I looked at him curiously and he chuckled. "It's just some fruit. We have no room, and if I leave the Tangerines with Yoongi, they won't last a week. So I'm entrusting you with them, and some flat peaches that I'll need later." He grinned.

"Ah." I giggled. "I'd be happy to keep the tangerines safe. However, I make no promises because if Yoongi knows I have them.. he might butter me up and I can't promise I won't give in." I replied.

"It's fine, trying is the important thing." He chuckled a little and then leaned down and gave me a gentle kiss. "I'm going to make you so many good meals for the next two weeks, you'll be moaning for more." He whispered with a smirk.

"You're teasing me." I pouted.

"And you like it." He smiled and kissed my forehead before leaving me with the bag of fruit.
After dropping the fruit off at my little house, I joined the others on the back deck of the second house, which is where Jin, Kookie, and Tae were staying.

"So, I figured if it's alright with Katsi, that we could each have a date with her. We're here for what... 2 weeks? So we each should be able to have 2 date nights. But.. during the day it's whatever she wants, okay?" Namjoon proposed to keep the chance of any arguments away.

"Not a bad idea, I'm down." Yoongi added as he sipped the drink in his hand. The others all nodded in agreement.

"Katsi?" Tae asked. "Would that be okay?" He had a genuine look of love and care on his face and I felt the emotions that went along with that look. I admit, I loved how considerate they all were.

"I think that's a good idea. I'm for it." I replied with a soft smile.

"Good, tonight, family dinner, then after... it's her choice, since our two weeks don't really begin till tomorrow." Namjoon commented. I and the others agreed with it, leaving me with the tough choice of choosing who I wanted to spend time with.
Staff brought us dinner down by the docks. There was a huge gazebo-like structure where tables and chairs were set up unter it. The bug screens were let down and the torches were lit for light and to keep bugs away. We ate and talked, they shared more stories of their time together, and I shared stories of my ancestors and childhood. They seemed to appreciate the way I grew up. Jungkook brought some speakers with him and with Yoongi's help they started to play some music as we had some after dinner drinks and still enjoyed conversation.
Hobi asked for me to dance with him and I felt seriously stupid for saying yes, I mean he was a dance god and there's no way I could be near that level.
He didn't care though, and he didn't make me feel like a fool for trying. He spun me and we swayed to the music. Jimin cut in and being the dance king he is was making me feel small till he pulled me to him and kept whispering in my ear how good of a job I was doing, dancing.
As a new song played, I danced with a different member each time, till I had danced with all seven without injuring anyone.
As the sky darkened more I tried to think about who I would want to be with tonight. I had fully bonded with some of them, but I needed to complete the bond with all of them. I thought about it while we were drinking, and even dancing. My mind drifted to that night with Hoseok, Jimin had been the most jealous but he seemed to be in more control of that now. In fact none of them seemed upset that I'd given myself to some of them.
Was it because we were all fated, so jealousy didn't matter here? Maybe it's just something that can't be explained. I knew a few of them had dates planned, but I wanted to connect with one of them tonight and not wait. If I waited too long to complete the bonds, then things would be bad for me, possibly them. I didn't know either way, but as I watched Jimin gaze up at the stars, and then turn his head to look at me, that smile turned into a cheeky smirk.
I felt the pull to him. He sipped his drink and licked his lips, as he set his glass down he looked me up and down again. The music still played and he pulled me into another dance with him. This time as a slower more seductive song played, Jimin was being his flirty and tempting self. I couldn't fight again everything in me that was buzzing.
So, half way through the song I gave up.

"I think I'm getting sleepy, Jimin, would you like to come stay with me?" I asked and he grinned.

"If that's what you want." he replied, briefly looking at the others. "Katsi's made her choice. Alright, well have a good night, both of you." Namjoon said, standing from his chair to give me a hug and a soft kiss before hugging Jimin and whispering something in his ear that made him smile wider. As curious as I was... I just wanted to get back into the house I was staying in as fast as possible. Once everyone had given us goodnight hugs and kisses, most of the others gave Jimin a cute kiss on the cheek. We finally headed to the house. Jimin took my hand in his and kissed the back of it as we walked along the path, giggling at absolutely nothing. When we got to the door, Jimin stood in front of it, blocking me from unlocking the door. "Are you sure you want to bring me inside?" He asked. "If I didn't, I wouldn't have asked you to stay with me." I giggled. He bit his bottom lip, his gaze locked onto me and I wanted so badly to just beg for him right then and there. I breathed heavy and his eyes seemed to flicker, letting me know he heard me, he felt what I was feeling, and in that moment I was feeling what he was feeling. He took the key from me without another word, unlocking the door and pushing it open in a hurry. He walked in backwards, slowly unbuttoning his polo shirt before lifting it up over his head. I stood in the doorway and just watched him toss the shirt to the side. "If I were you... I'd close the door before I get too much further." He grinned, lowering his hands to his belt. I was in one hell of a night if this strip tease was any indication of what was to come.
