Epilogue

Haru, Anna's four year old daughter squeals as the door bell rings, "They're here! They're here!" Anna opens the door as Hoseok rushes to Haru. "Uncle Hoseok!" She giggles as he picks her up and spins her in the air.

"Yah hajima!" Jin says as he pulls her away from Hoseok. "But uncle Jin-" she pouts as Jin says "Sweetie you'll get hurt." He places her down. As soon as that she crosses her legs and sits on the floor. "Now does that seem familiar." Jimin says. Anna comes and is pulled into hugs.

"Where's uncle Yoongi?" Haru asks as she tugs on Jungkook's shirt. "He's in the car. Why don't you go wake him up?" He says as he winks and motions to the car.

Haru leaves the scene as the rest continue to chat. "Noona how are you?" Taehyung asks. "Very good."

"Where is our new nephew?" Namjoon asks. She motions them to follow her as she leads her to the dining room. They all start giggling as they see the sight of Alex snoring with the baby asleep in his arms

Alex groans as he hears a flash. He opens his eyes as his eyes land on the seven. "Guess being a father is hard eh?" Jungkook smiles as he picks the baby up from his arms. "Aigoo he's so cute." Jin squeals as he gently pinches his cheek, "What's his name?" "Hope Alex Martin." Anna says as she winks at Hoseok.

"Aigoo! Hope! Just like J-Hope!" Hoseok bounces as he takes him from Jungkook. "I'm your hope!" He says as he lifts him in the air, "You're my hope!" Hope giggles as he shoves a chubby finger into his mouth.

"Uh where's Haru?" Alex says as he scratches his scalp. "She went to wake up Yoongi." Jungkook sighs as he starts to walk out.

All of them stand awing at the sight. Yoongi is still asleep in the car with Haru cradled in his arms covered with drool. "I need to take a picture!" Jin whisper-shouts. Snap. "Yah hyung wake up!" Jimin says as he picks up Haru from his arms. Yoongi rubs his eyes and sits up straight. "Haru honey wake up." Jimin says gently. She instead wraps her arms around his neck and whispers,"Fluffy."

Jimin smiles widely as he gently pecks on her soft cheek and carries her inside. All of them sit in the dining room and chat.

Taehyung sits with Hope on his lap. "Hey, Hope say 'Jiminie pabo(Jimin is stupid)' " Taehyung coos to Hope. "Yah!" Jimin yells as he smacks Taehyung's head.

"He's still young and we don't want him to swear. One more word Kim Taehyung and you will be grounded." Jin says as he takes Hope form him and pulls his ear. "Eomma! Mianhae(sorry)! Mianhae(sorry)!" Taehyung yelps as he falls back onto his seat and runs his ears.

"Hey you bored Haru?" Namjoon whispers to Haru. Haru nods and makes sad puppy eyes at him. "Wanna bake cookies?" He says as she grins widely.

Clang!

The group's attention is distracted by the noise. "Uh where's Namjoon hyung?" Yoongi asks. "I don't know", Anna sighs as her eyes widen, "Where's Haru?"

They all abruptly stand up and match to the kitchen where they see Haru and Namjoon on the floor with cookie dough all over them.

"What the f-yahhhh!" Yoongi says as he earns a sharp smack from Jungkook. "Hey stob it!" Jin yells as he separated the two. "Now you two explain yourselves." Jin says as he turns his attention to Haru and Namjoon.

"B-but uncle kookie it's uncle Namjoonie's fault." Haru says as she runs to Jungkook and wraps her short arms around his neck. Jin turns to Namjoon, "Well?" "Funny story. It was in the fridge and it got all over us!" Namjoon says as he stands up and dusts his shirt.

"Let's bake cookies!" Taehyung yells as he fist bumps into the air. Right this moment Hope starts to cry. "Aigoo you pabo(stupid). Look what you did to my Hope." Hoseok says as he takes Hope from Anna's embrace. "Yay! Cookies!" Haru squeals as she runs to Taehyung.

"Shh uncle Hoseok will protect you." Hoseok whispers into Hope's ear. Hope giggles as he drools on Hoseok's shoulder and shiver chubby fingers in his mouth.

Alex walks over to Anna and places his arm on her shoulder. "So you'd never change anything if you got the chance too?" Alex asks. Anna looks at the lot and smiles, "Nope!" Alex smiles back at her as he leans in for a kiss.

The two abruptly pull apart when they hear an "Ewww!" Form Haru and Jungkook. "My children!" Jin gasps as he rushes over to them and covers their eyes. "Continue if you want." Jin says as he smiles sheepishly.

"What's so ew?" Jimin asks. "Yeah how do you think you came into this world?" Yoongi asks as both turn to him. "When a guy-" Yoongi's starts as he gets tackled down by Jin. "Not now! They're still young!" Jin yells at him as he slaps him gently a dozen times. "Namjoonie told me about the birds and bees." Yoongi says as he lifts his finger to point at Namjoon.

"Uncle Suga what are the birds and bees?" Haru says as she eagerly tugs on his shirt. "U-uhh living t-things...?" Yoongi says afraid of what Jin will do. "So where do babies co-" Haru gets cut off by Jin, "Okay kids! Time for dinner!"

"Yep I wouldn't change a single thing." Anna says as she smiles to herself.
