Forever Together

Chapter 108

Julie glared at her little brother; he was planning something she just wasn't sure what. But she knew that she could get the info out of Johnny; he might be a chill middle child, but he's still scared of pissing his sisters off.

As soon as Eric got up to help his Appa do something, she walked over and plopped down on the couch next to Johnny. Who just so happened to flinch? Yeah, he was definitely up to something. "Spill it, or it's a titty twister for you."

His hands came up to cover his nipples that were under his shirt, "you wouldn't," he gasped.

"I would. So spill."

Johnny sighed, "Eric wants to give Dew a hard time since he wants Appa Jin to like him so much."

That just made her frown more, "they are best friends. That makes no sense."

"And you are his sister. Dew didn't follow the bro code, so this is his punishment."

She wanted to roll her eyes so fucking hard, but honestly, it's Eric, so it checks out. She groaned as she dropped her head into her hands, "I need a drink," she grumbled.

A bottle of soju was placed in front of her; she didn't even look to see who gave it to her. She just downed it. A deep chuckle was heard, and she knew it was from Appa Yoongi. "That bad?"

"You have no idea," she pointed toward her Dad and fiancé, "Eric is torturing Dew for fun."

Yoongi snorted before he tried to cover it up with a cough. "Well, that does sound like the baby of the family. My question is, why is Hyungie in on it? I thought he liked Dew."

"I thought so as well, but he's been really cold with him ever since we announced the wedding. He wasn't like that with Won, and it's really not fair." She crossed her arms over her chest as she huffed back onto the couch more. "He threw a massive fit about me getting married, but Ami can do whatever she wants."

Yoongi sat down, wrapped his arm around his daughter, and pulled her to his side before kissing the top of her head. "I already told you that he threw a massive fit about her, too. Apparently, He kept it contained when you guys weren't around."

"I still don't believe that, but even if it's true. Why is he so mean to Dew but not Won?"

"Please tell me you've seen Won, right?" He scoffed, "Hyungie had absolutely no chance in denying that kid. He follows him around like a puppy. That kid worships Jin, and we all know how much Jin loves being the center of attention when it's around people he's comfortable with. Jin Stans weren't called a cult for nothing."

Julie frowned, "but will he always hate Dew?"

"No, will he ride this out in the most dramatic way possible? Of course. But it won't be forever. You could speed it up, though."

She sat up and looked at her Appa with big pleading eyes as she begged him to help.

"You know how he used to have that massive RJ statue?"

The face she made was classic; of course, she remembers it. She remembers climbing it like a fucking jungle gym with her siblings, and it crashing down on the ground and breaking. She always remembers how they thought fixing it with bright blue painter's tape would be a great idea, like none of their parents would notice that a white 6-foot llama was broken and covered in blue tape.

"Maybe," she whispered, causing both Appa Yoongi and Johnny to snort very loudly.

"Sorry," Johnny whispered in between breaths as he was laughing.

"Well, he's always wanted another one. But BT21 isn't a thing anymore. If Dew could use his new stardom and good press for this marriage, he might be able to get one made and give it to Jin as a thank-you for allowing him to marry you."

"You want to use RJ as a bribe to get Appa to stop being mean to Dew?"

Yoongi raised his eyebrow, and he had a blank look on his face, "Yes. Is that a problem? Because if it is, I'm surprised. You are the Queen of petty."

"It was one time," she yelled, making everyone stop what they were doing to look at her.

"Yeah, but just shaving my head wasn't enough. You had to go and use a sharpie to color in a blue arrow like I'm the next fucking Avatar," JJ yelled from his spot at the dining room table where he was holding his nephew.

Ami smacked the back of his head, "Don't fucking cuss in front of my babies."

To which Tae smacked her on the back of the head, a bit softer, "Yah, don't you cuss in front of my grandbabies."

"I pushed them out of me; I can say fuck around them if I want to. Others cannot."

"Anyway," Julie grumbled, "it was right before Halloween, and let's be honest. You were inspired to write comics after that, and now you have an amazing career. So I think the words you are looking for are, oh, thank you, wise Julie, for helping me achieve my dream."

"Not happening, Satan. You still won't tell me why you did it."

She smiled and looked at her Appa Yoongi, "You are right. I'm down."

That got Yoongi laughing so hard that he clapped loudly, scaring little Noah. "Aigoo, sweet boy. I'm sorry I scared you." He held his grandson and smiled at him. Although he may have no blood relation to this little boy, that doesn't stop him from loving him with all of his heart.
