              "Jungkook..  You're not being fair. You claim that you own me but you can't tell me you love me directly." Jimin said as he looked up at Jungkook. "I know it's just a phrase but you would be surprised on how much it'll mean to me..."

            "I... Can't tell you that right now.." Jungkook confessed.

              "Why?" Jimin asked as Jungkook let out a sigh.

               "When it comes to love... Then comes marriage and I don't want to marry..." Jungkook said as he felt Jimin try to sit up.

          "Marriage... That's what it is right? Then furture queen.." Jimin scoffed. "You don't have to marry if you don't want to, Jungkook. It's a choice."

              "A choice for you... But pressure for me." Jungkook sighed. "No matter how much I want to deny it.. The Adviser keeps rushing me to it like I'll be alone forever." Jungkook then caressed Jimin's hair. "But you... I don't know what feeling you are giving me.. You confuse me as much as I confuse you." Jungkook chuckled while Jimin held onto the blanket wrapped around him and Jungkook.

               "Am I going to stay here until we get caught by your Adviser?" Jimin asked as Jungkook began to think about it.

         "You have been nervous because of my Adviser... Does a guy like him really scare you?" Jungkook asked trying not to laugh as he ran his hand along Jimin's chest.

            "Yes he does.. But since I am your Jester.. He expects me not to move too close to you and entertain you every second. It's like he enjoys it when I have torture."

             Jungkook then took a minute. "I guess I shouldn't be treating you like this.." Jungkook added. "I won't keep you here because you don't want to but what I will say is when the moon comes out and the sun is gone, come back here to me.."

               "Why?" Jimin asked thinking Jungkook will try to fuck him again.

                "We can talk about many things." Jungkook added as Jimin started to blush. There was a bit bumps in the beginning between them, but this seemed like a nice thing to do together. Jungkook may have not wanted to admit it... But he did show how much he loved Jimin without saying it, but showing it instead.

        By night time, Hoseok was walking with Yoongi and Sumi as they all three held hands. This time they were not in the castle, they were out in the town walking around after leaving a restaurant with full stomachs.

             Sumi was in the middle holding hands with Hoseok and Yoongi. This was her idea of a perfect family. She was able to accept Hoseok as a close friend and she can tell that Yoongi felt the same too towards Hoseok.

            By the time they reached the playground, Sumi ran over to the play structure and decided to play on it even if she was the only one playing at night, But luckily she was being watched over by Yoongi and Hoseok. They were like parents to her.

          Hoseok sat down on the park bench with Yoongi as they watched Sumin play on the slide by herself. Sumi was happy because she was actually watching her father talk to someone new for once.

              "We walked all day! I can use a break." Hoseok laughed as he layed back onto the bench as Yoongi smiled while watching Sumi run around giggling.

              "I never thought I would find someone who will be able to help me... You are such a kind person, Jung Hoseok! I apreciate your help. I know I said it before, but thank you.."

             "Ah, I'm just doing what I can." Hoseok replied as he looked at Yoongi for a moment. "Raising a child isn't easy... Isn't it?"

               "It's not..." Yoongi confessed. "I never really have time with her.. I'm always at work and I would come home to see her all lonely. This was before you came along and I actually have thoughts of putting her back for adoption... I'm not cut out for this.." Yoongi claimed as he tried his best not to cry.

              "Surely you meant that a long time ago, right? Before I came along right? You can't think of giving up Sumi... She's a wonderful girl." Hoseok responded feeling bad for the girl.

            "I can't bother you forever and tell you to watch over her when you have your job... I just can't do that to you.." Yoongi stated. "This is becoming too much for me.. There's no other way but to just set her back to where she came from..." Yoongi confessed watching the clueleas little girl wave at the two and kick the sand in the playground playfully.

             Hoseok took a moment while he watched the little girl. He wanted Yoongi to have time for her.. But moments like this were difficult. "I know you don't want to hear me make up any more explanations on why you shouldn't do it... But just think about Sumi for once.. She is very happy living in a big castle with her father."

              Yoongi then scoffed and looked at the green grass infront of him. "She's the only kid there and I am never there for her so she can smile. She lives in isolation and it's all my fault."

           "No... It's not your fault." Hoseok replied. "You can't say that you failed if you were trying..."

            "But what am I going to do now? I can't keep you there forever to watch over my daughter while I deliver royal messages to everyone! It's not fair to you.."

              "Yoongi..." Hoseok claimed as he thought up of an idea. "I can take care of her... I can be her father.. too." Hoseok said hinting that he wanted to be with Yoongi and take care of Sumi as well. "Out of everything we did today, it was like family... Sumi seemed like she enjoyed every second of it because were were close like a family... So maybe we both can be her fathers. Sumi won't be alone anymore! She can say that she has two loving parents that care about her." Hoseok suggested as Yoongi smiled with a blush appearing on his face.

            "Both being parents together.." Yoongi smiled as the thought in his mind made him blush at the fact that Hoseok will be there by his side from now on.
