There was a knock at the door, and before I could reach it, Jimin had already swung the door open and flopped into somebody's arms. I came forward, opening the door more to see who it was.

In the doorway with Jimin clung to him, stood Jungkook. With a wide smile on his face, and a pizza box in his free hand, he invited himself in, all while managing to hold Jimin with one arm. I took the hot pizza from him and set it on the counter, hastily searching for the box with our plates and bowls in it.

"Jimin hyung you're so clingy!" Jungkook whined, playfully pushing the older off of him. From the corner of my eye I could see the two play fighting and I clicked my tongue to my teeth. "Hey you two! There's still fragile boxes around. Please don't rough house. Infact, Kookie, are you okay with helping us unpack?"

"Of course! That's what I came here to do! But I figured hey, why not bring dinner as a housewarming gift!" Jungkook grinned and raised a brow, "Hey where's Namjoon?"

"He's in our bedroom organizing our belongings. You're free to help him! I'll let you all know once I've found the plates so we can eat by the way." I pointed toward Namjoon and I's bedroom, and Jungkook took off for it. I could hear him having hugged Namjoon, followed by a whirlwind of other noises as the two unpacked boxes expeditiously.

After having finally found the box with all our dining ware in it, I unpacked it and set everything up for us to eat. We had been working all day and the sun was beginning to set. None of us had eaten since we started. I called everybody from where they worked and we all joined together in the livingroom to eat, since the dining room was still full with boxes.

We sat in a circle on the floor, eating quietly. Jimin leaned against Jungkook with a large yawn between bites of pizza and rubbed his eyes. When I looked to Namjoon, he too appeared tired. His eyes were glassy and bloodshot; his back slouched. I extended my arm, gently rubbing his aching back.

"Okay everybody, thank you so much for your help, but how about we call it a night? Sound good?" Everybody collectively nodded and I returned their response with another nod. "Sounds good to me. Let's move the extra boxes out of the walkway and into the dining room, then how about I set up the dvd player and we all watch a movie?"

Jimin's head perked happily and he cooed a small 'yes' as he finished his food. He stood up and moved the remaining boxes out of the way with the help of Jungkook. As I finished eating, I set up the television and dvd player, finding a random movie and putting it in to play.

As night dwindled down and the movie was half over, Jimin had fallen asleep on the couch. Jungkook struggled to stay awake longer and ultimately ended up asleep in a bundle of blankets on the floor. Namjoon and I went to our bed to rest, leaving the movie on as background noise and light for the other two.

It was a nice sensation to be in a new place. It was like all the bad memories had been erased and we'd been given a new start. As Namjoon and I snuggled in bed, I peered out our bedroom window and up at the stars. I counted them, making wishes as I went.

I wish we prosper here. I wish Namjoon gets that studio he's always wanted. I wish-

I was drawn from my thoughts as I heard a whisper come into my ear. "You wish on those stars anymore baby, and you'll become one yourself." I felt a small shiver ascend my spine as Namjoon tugged at my waist, eliminating the space between us. My cheeks became warm as I thought about what we could do, but I quickly ditched them once I remembered we had company. Settling into his firm grasp comfortably, I closed my eyes with a soft sigh.

We did it. Here's our new beginning.
