For the first time in my life, I tune into the Dispatch live stream of BTS at Incheon Airport. It feels surreal to see Tae in the same Louis Vuitton outfit that he left the house in a couple of hours ago. I smile fondly when I see his toes sticking out of his sandals. 'My sweetie man would fly barefoot if he could,' I think. 'I'm still not sure about those pants, but love the shirt. He'll be really comfy on the flight, anyway. I wonder if I can just quietly move that shirt to my part of the closet when he gets back?' I chuckle evilly at the thought.
Taehyung is waving to the cameras, walking with his brothers and their bodyguards. I suddenly realize that I have extreme cognitive dissonance from seeing my boyfriend this way, and decide to turn off the computer and go take a bubble bath.
My phone pings from the edge of the tub.
Tae: 😘We're boarding. Love you!
I send him a pic of my knees and toes poking out of the bubbles.
I'm bathing. Love you, too! Have a great time!
A few minutes go by, so I set my phone down. As soon as I put my hands underwater, it pings. I laugh and dry my hand again.
🥵
🧜
Jin-hyung wants to know whose legs those are. Should I tell him?
Nah, message me his number and I'll send him pics, too.
BIRDIE!! 😱
I'M KIDDING, I'M KIDDING! 😂😘
He's not even your wrecker!
So you're saying I should send the pics to Namjoon-shi and Yoongi-shi, instead?
NO!!
I send him a photo of my mouth, laughing.
I love you so much, funny man. Have I ever told you that?
A few times, but you can tell me again.
I love you a ridiculous amount, Kim Taehyung-ah.❤️x♾️
I love you more.
That's mathematically impossible. 🤣🥰
I can, because I'm magic. You always tell me so.
Ooh, using my own words to defeat me! 🧙OK, OK, I surrender. But I still love you more!! 😍💞🥰
We're supposed to turn off our phones for takeoff. I love you the most! Bye! 😘
I chuckle and set the phone down again, then sigh. 'What the bleep am I supposed to do now? What did I do before I met that man?' I try to remember. 'Mostly moped around and listened to BTS songs, I think.' I laugh at the thought. 'I need to come up with a new hobby, stat!'
