"Be humble!"

"Sit down!"

"Be humble! Hold up, hold up!"

"Sit down!"

Taehyung and I continue to belt out the lyrics to Be Humble as Jungkook cruises the SUV down the open highway. It rained earlier in the day but the sun is finally staring to peek through the clouds.

I won't lie, my fiancé looks pretty good when he drives. He steers with one hand while the other grips my hand. The seatbelt runs across his sculpted chest because, ya know, safety first.

"Guys! Look! Look!" Taehyung exclaims from the back seat. I round my body to look out of the driver's side window. I see Jungkook take a quick glance over his shoulder.

A crimson car with gold details and rims glides past us. The speed of the car causes our SUV to almost shake from the breeze it created. The driver waves their arm out of the window as a way to apologize. Jungkook excitedly beeps the horn back in response.

"Lamborghini Aventador beauty," Taehyung mumbles with big eyes.

"I just witnessed her take Iron Man out for a spin," Jungkook adds in awe. 

The woman he speaks of is someone that Jungkook and I both admire, Tani. She received world praise for her first novel Devil Incarnate. She started the book under a fan fiction site under the pen name mochikookielove . She recently directed and released a movie based on that novel.

Ironically, the main characters were named Jungkook and Jimin. Jungkook and I thought about auditioning for the roles as a joke. Jungkook playing as Jungkook. Jimin starring as Jimin. Get it? Ha.

Jungkook glances at Taehyung in the rear view mirror. "She has good taste in names. Jungkook. Jimin. Iron Man. Maybe she'll get bored of her money and adopt a tiger to name Gucci."

We all laugh.

I begin to scroll through the music in my library until I land on a song that I'm sure will keep the energy going in the car. It's one Yoongi and Taehyung performed for karaoke during our last get together.

Taehyung begins to dance in the back seat. Jungkook slightly does a shimmy along with him.

"New face! New face! New-new new face!"

My silly fiancé frees his hands for a second to do a three second mini twerk session. And that's when things change.

Once moment my eyes are closing from intense laughter.

Boom!

The next moment someone smacks into the back of our vehicle.

Taehyung's body starts to fly forward between Jungkook's and my seats. Luckily his seatbelt saved him from flying through the window.

Jungkook and I are both saved by our seatbelts as well.

Jungkook grabs onto the steering wheel and does his best to control the truck. Within seconds he is able to get things steady. He puts his turn signal on to indicate that we'll be pulling over soon.
