As Maya and Yoongi settled into their new apartment, the BTS members were still buzzing with excitement and teasing. The apartment, now a mix of their belongings and a few playful touches from the boys, was taking shape.

Jin, having noticed Maya struggling with a particularly stubborn shelf, sauntered over with a smirk. “Need some help, Maya? I’m a professional at assembling furniture.”

Maya shot him a playful look. “I think I’ve got this, but thanks for the offer.”

Jimin, who was inspecting the kitchen, called out, “Yoongi, are you sure you can handle Maya’s cooking? I heard she’s a culinary genius.”

Yoongi chuckled, wrapping an arm around Maya’s waist. “I’m looking forward to it. She’s already made some amazing dishes.”

V, setting up the entertainment system, winked at Maya. “Just wait until you see her dance. I hope you’re ready to keep up.”

Maya laughed, nudging Yoongi. “Looks like I’m getting a lot of attention tonight.”

Jungkook, who had been quietly observing, finally spoke up. “Maya, if you need anything, just let me know. I’m always here for you.”

Maya gave him a warm smile. “Thanks, Jungkook. Your support means a lot.”

Jungkook’s tone grew serious as he added, “And Yoongi, remember, if you don’t treat her well, you’ll have to deal with me.”

Yoongi nodded, half-amused and half-serious. “I understand. I promise to take good care of her.”

Maya, touched by Jungkook’s protective nature, leaned in and kissed his cheek. “Thanks for looking out for me.”

The room fell silent as everyone absorbed the gesture. Yoongi, feeling a bit jealous, pulled Maya closer to him. “And what about me? Don’t I get a kiss too?”

Maya’s eyes sparkled with mischief. “Oh, really? I thought I’d keep you guessing.”

Yoongi leaned in, waiting, but Maya playfully stepped back. “Maybe I’ll make you wait a little longer.”

She darted behind Hobi, who laughed as he shielded her. “Help me, Bablu!”

Hobi, enjoying the moment, said, “Looks like Yoongi’s got to work for his kisses.”

Yoongi, trying to hide his disappointment, chuckled and shook his head. “Alright, alright. I’ll let it slide this time.”

Jungkook, still standing close by, added with a grin, “Yoongi’s got some competition in the kiss department.”

Maya, sensing Yoongi’s frustration, finally stepped forward. She cupped his face gently and leaned in, planting a sweet kiss on his lips. “There’s your kiss, hero.”

Yoongi’s expression softened, and he pulled her close, his smile radiant. “That’s all I needed.”

The boys watched, slightly surprised but pleased with the tender moment. As they all gathered around the dinner table, the atmosphere was lively. The BTS members raised their glasses in a toast.

Namjoon, with a sincere expression, said, “Congratulations on your engagement and new home. We’re always here for you, no matter what.”

Maya, touched, responded, “Thank you all. Your support means everything to us.”

As the BTS members left, the apartment grew quieter, and Yoongi and Maya were left to themselves. They moved around the space, tidying up and reflecting on the evening. Both were tired but filled with happiness.
