Arianna's POV

We spent the next two weeks roaming around the city, shopping, taking photos, and completing interviews. Joon, Jin, Jk and I all went to hang around the park, while the others went somewhere with Yoongi. Apparently I was not allowed to know where they were going, but I'm sure I'll figure it out eventually.

As we are leaving Central Park, I tilt my head and look at Joon. "So I know JK and Jin are headed out on a fishing boat this afternoon, so...... do you wanna go with me to my favorite place in New York?"

He gives me a weird look and slowly says "sure..."

I laugh at him with his uncertainty and wave my hand to catch a cab. After telling the driver where we are going, I sit back. Joon and I start talking small talk for the 20 minutes it takes to get there. Once we arrive at this gothic;  classic looking building, I lean forward to pay the driver and get out. Joon follows me out the cab and begins to look around. I grab his hand excitedly and pull him inside. As we walk into the door, I turned left still pulling Joon behind me and hear a gasp. I stop and let Joon take in the sight in front of him. This scary gothic looking building is a historic museum of art and books. There are shelves upon shelves of first edition, rare books.

I smile as I watch Joon whip his head back and forth before doing his little happy hop. He takes off towards the wall of books and I have to remind him to be careful. Can't have ARMY's god of destruction breaking something. He slows down,  stops, and brings his hands up, running them along the spines of the books. He lets out a small sound of joy.

I take him on a tour of all the artwork and we spend several hours thumbing through books. Finally hunger grabs both of our attentiona and we realize that we both have several text messages and calls we missed. After sharing a sheepish expression with each other. I make a call to my panicked soulmate. After calming him down, I found out they were headed toward a restaurant near Times Square. I flag us a cab down and we head that way. We beat the rest of the boys there but, go ahead and get us checked in. We pretty much know what everyone wants to drink, so joon orders everyone drinks.

A few minutes later, the guys arrive. Yoongi heads straight for me and pulls me tight to his chest. I rub my hand along his back and neck whispering I'm okay, I'm sorry.

"I'm sorry guys. I swear I didn't mean to lose track of time. Ari took me to this museum that had rare art and books. We kinda got lost in there exploring. We really didn't mean to worry you guys." Joon explains apologizing rubbing his hands along the back of his head.

"You two are no longer allowed to go anywhere alone." Jimin says shaking his head. "You seem to get so immersed into what your doing, you forget to let us know your okay."

Joon and I look at each other and start laughing. "Good luck with that" Joon says "My best friend and I will just keep being us! But I do promise to try and be better about letting you know where we are going."

We arrive back at the hotel after enjoying dinner together and everyone heads to their rooms.

"What did you do today?" I ask Yoongi

"I just went shopping with the boys and we checked out the music store here." Yoongi replies

"Did you buy anything?" I ask, digging trying to find out why he is answering suspiciously

He turns his head and smirks at home "I didn't really buy anything, the others did." He answers

I shake my head not believing him, but decide on letting it go. We pack up our stuff so that we are ready to catch a 4am flight. We head toward the shower and get ready for bed.

Yoongi's POV

I watch my love drift to sleep. I smile at her sleeping face, peace in my soul. Jimin is right, gotta find a way to put a tracker on her and Joon. They definitely had us worried.

She is so cute trying to find out what I bought. Little does she know I plan on giving it to her very soon. My little soulmate is as curious as a cat, so thankfully I gave it to Hobi to keep, him being the most responsible. I gather her closer into my arms, breathing the scent of her shampoo and let sleep overtake me.

The next few hours go by and our alarm goes off at 130am. We get up groggily and I mumble to her that I am grateful we can sleep on the plane. I begin to gather up our bags after we finish the last minute packing and we head down to the lobby.  We meet up with the others and load up in the vans.

Half asleep we make our way through security and meet Ari on the plane. I pull her down into the seat next to me, buckle her in, cover us both and drift back off to sleep.

I wake up a few hours later, finding Ari is no longer sleeping next to me. I unbuckle and stand up to stretch. Looking over my shoulder I see everyone but Jin is around a table playing a card game. I listen to JK grumble that Ari has beaten them all at the game twice and is on her way to winning a third time. I chuckle and go look for my only hyung.  I find him sitting in the back alone, staring out the window in his own little world.

"Are you okay?" I ask him

"I am just fine Yoongs. Just sleepy still, hard to sleep next to the young ones. They have so much energy." Jin answers

I watch his face for a few minutes, noticing that there seems to be more to his answer, choosing to leave it be for now. I sit down next to him, grab his hand, and let myself drift away into Joons book that was sitting next to him. I feel him squeeze my hand in thanks and smile to myself.

"I can't wait to be home" I think to myself
