Jungkook pulls me back on his lap and pulls me close into a hug. I relax against him with my head on his shoulder.

"You don't know how many times I've thought about you doing that lately. Thank you," Jungkook says.

"I love making you happy," I say against his shoulder. If I could just stay in his arms like this, away from everyone, I could be happy forever.

"I want to make you happy too," he pushes against me so I'm looking at him. His hands caress down my back.

"You make me happy just by being here and the night is young. What time is it anyway?" I say, looking around for a clock.

Jungkook leans over to tap on his phone, "It's almost midnight."

"Is it?" The time was already going too fast.

A staff member was picking me up at 6 am so I'd be gone before filming started for the day. Hobi was usually up pretty early. Neither of us loved the idea of me leaving so early but we wanted to make it work.

"That only leaves us 6 hours," Jungkook says and then pauses like he's gathering the courage to say something, "I know we said we would stay in here, but will you come outside to look at some real stars with me?"

"Jungkook!" I want to say yes, but it sounds so risky.

"Please. It's so late so the chances of anyone coming outside are so slim. The stars are beautiful out here without the city lights and I've wanted you to see them every night. Please?"

Even with the risks, I already know I can't say no to anything he wants. It was the whole reason I came in the first place. He was never demanding, he just always was so excited about whatever it was he wanted to do that you just couldn't say no.

"You know I can't say no to you."

He smiles like he has gotten another present and his shoulders do a little dance in victory.

We clean up the room and get changed into some comfy clothes. He puts back on his sweats and I put on some joggers. Jungkook lets me wear one of his T-shirts from his brother's clothing line. It smells like him and I hope he lets me take it home with me.

Despite being late, Bam wants to go with us so the three of us head out with a blanket. Jungkook walks out first with Bam and surveys the yard. No one is out and the main house lights are off. Yoongi's lights are still on in his camper, but he already knows so it's not a big deal.

We settle in on a lounge chair by the pool and cover up with a blanket. It's warm outside but it's comfy.  We have an absolutely clear view of the night sky, full of stars twinkling. Cicadas and frogs are making themselves known.

Jungkook is lying flat with one arm behind his head. I am curled up on my side next to him with my leg thrown over him. If we weren't limited on time I could definitely fall asleep like this.
