Nevaeh was running around squealing and having the time of her life. "Mama, Appa!" She yelled as she jumped from the wooden ledge onto the ground. Jimin flinched, ready to discipline her.

"Don't. It was 3 inches off the ground; she's fine."

"She's going to give me a heart attack, is what's going to happen. She's only three. Is she supposed to be this adventurous?"

Laska smiled at her overbearing husband, "It's been a hot minute since I've been around toddlers, but I'm fairly sure this is normal." She stood up, dusting off her pants, "Nevi! Come on, we have to head to the restaurant."

Jimin groaned, "Paps, 2 o'clock. Why won't they give up? We aren't even doing anything remotely newsworthy."

"Army loves seeing you be all domestic. Now go get your little terror. Give her lots of kisses so they can get their shot, and let's go. It's to be surprised when Tae and Dez tell us that they are engaged."

Before they even got to the restaurant, his pictures were up on Dispatch. 'BTS' Jimin was seen with his soulmate and their three-year-old daughter. As fans remember, Jimin told them he would leave BTS if they couldn't live together. Thankfully, Army chose to be respectful. This has also led to other idols meeting their soulmates or just getting married. Congrats, Laska and Jimin, on your family. We can't wait for baby #2 announcements.'

"Already, they already put the stupid pictures up, and what's up with this baby #2 shit? Like I can't be happy just having a daughter?"

"Jimin," she murmured, "it's fine. They don't mean it that way, I promise. Now calm down because we should be happy for our friends."

He sighed, "I am happy, I'm just annoyed with this shit." He grumbled as he waved his phone in the air.

They laughed, cried, and cheered when Dez showed off her engagement ring. Bouts of cheers went around the room until Tae dipped her back and kissed her within an inch of her life. They stopped because Nevi walked over to them, pushing them apart while saying yucky. It made the whole room laugh and coo at the toddler as Tae picked her up and kissed all over her plump cheeks that she gets from her dad.

"I'm Sorry we have to go so soon. That one needs a nap in a bed," he grumbled as he pointed behind him.

Tae smiled at his platonic soulmate, "Don't fret; I know how she gets when she doesn't get her proper rest. She takes after her uncle Yoongi on that one."

They both looked over to see Yoongi fast asleep; Nevi passed out on his chest, drooling on his expensive shirt. Jimin snapped a picture: "They are so cute. I don't want to wake them up, but I know she shouldn't stay asleep long—not with that one getting lit." He motioned his head toward the oldest, who was already turning a bit red from the alcohol and getting a bit loud.

"Yeah, when Jin gets drunk, everyone within a 50-foot radius knows," Tae mused. "Go, take your girls home; we'll see you three tomorrow for lunch any way you can buy for skipping out early."

Jimin raised his eyebrow, "And why would I pay? You knew we'd have to leave early when you scheduled it."

"You are the Hyung," he rebutted with a shrug of his shoulders.

"You only call me Hyung when it's convenient for you, and it always costs me money," Jimin grumbled as he maneuvered his daughter out of Yoongi's arms, trying his best not to wake either of them up.

Tae's full, boxy smile was on as he bounced a bit on his heels, "Of course I do; it's part of my charm."

Jimin shook his head and finally got his daughter safely and was still asleep in his arms. Before he even had a chance to look for Laska, she was already there holding open the door, waiting for them. They made it home successfully and put Nevi in her bed before they crashed down on the couch together to watch mindless TV until their daughter woke up.

"Do you want another child?"

His body stiffened. They hadn't discussed it, mainly because Jimin was terrified of having another. "It's not that I don't; it's just. Before you were worried about my health?"

"I am," he sighed, "I know that the surgery was successful, and you haven't had an episode in years. But pregnancy is so hard on your body, and you struggled last time. It just makes me worried that something bad will happen to the TV. And no matter what anyone thinks, I'm happy having a daughter. I don't need more than one child or a son to feel fulfilled."

"I know you don't," she said as she softly palmed his cheek, her thumb brushing his lower lip. "And I'm the same way; if Nevi is all we have, that's completely fine with me. But if we had another one, that's fine too. But I want us to do it because we want to, not because we feel pressured."

He leaned forward, kissing her softly. "How about we wait until she's in school? That way, you can rest at home rather than chasing after a toddler while pregnant."

"And where are you in this scenario?" She mused.

"Right beside you, except if I have to go to work. But I remember last time how you yelled at me constantly that you were pregnant and not broken, that you could do it, and if I didn't stop, you were going to cut me off for the rest of my life."

She giggled as she crawled into his lap, "As long as you are aware, we are good. Now, why don't we practice a bit?"

"Oh, I'd love to," and as soon as he pulled her flush against him, Nevi yelled out for her Appa, "but our princess has other ideas," he groaned. "Maybe having another one is dumb, that's just one more cockblock in the house."

"If it isn't our kids, it's your brothers. It's not like we aren't awesome at being creative."

"True," he said, shifting his beautiful wife back onto the couch. I'll get her. Do you want to start dinner?" This was his life, and he was so thankful that he had her back.
