The years passed by and your lofty dreams have almost dwindled into non-existence.....the familiar feeling of emptiness is starting to creep back. Will this person who has suddenly been thrown into your life be the one to bring the light back into y...
You are sitting at Noona's kitchen table while she feeds you cake with ice cream, wiping overspill from your face with her fingers. The way she looks at you with her kind smile and hair tied up is getting you excited. Suddenly you can hear a bird tapping at her window and you look at it crossly for disturbing this wonderful experience. The noise persists and you quickly open your eyes to see Jimin and Taehyung tapping furiously at the taxi window.
"Ya, sleep on your own time Jungkookie!" "We spent 10 hours on a plane to come see you and this how you greet us?" "Is there anywhere we can get burger and sprite?" "Why did we take the quiet route out, I really wanted to see ARMY!" "So driver, how long will it take to get to our rented accommodation?" "Move over Jungkookie, I need more sleep."

You smile widely when you see your hyungs, all traces of your sleepiness gone. Yoongi hyung manages to squeeze himself into the back row of seats and promptly falls asleep. Namjoon hyung sits next to the driver discussing the British weather. Jin and Hobi hyungs join Yoongi at the back, allowing him to lay his legs on their laps. Jiminshi and Tae hyung both drop themselves next to you excitedly.
"Jungkook-ah, did you miss us?" asks Jimin, grinning so hard that his eyes disappear. "Jungkook, have you been practising really hard?" asks Tae, looking a bit concerned. You all enthusiastically catch up on all that's been happening in Seoul, Big Hit and your stay in London so far. Every now and then, Tae stares at you intently, as though trying to gauge how things were between you and Noona. As promised to her, you haven't told him anything more since that last video call. He, for his part, hasn't broached the subject. Jimin regales his last few hair adventures, which he has currently dyed light pink. You have to admit it suits him, the chameleon. "You should try cherry pink, Jungkookie, I think it'll look great on you," he suggests.
"I think I'll stick to earth brown, Jiminshi," you reply, to which Jimin throws himself forward, laughing. You look at him, thinking how your joke isn't that funny, when Hobi hyung explains, "Jimin really missed you Jungkook. He's been practically begging us everyday to address him as Jiminshi."
"I even saw him crying the day after you left," says a lazy voice from the back. Nothing gets past Yoongi hyung, you think.
"Yoongi hyung! I wasn't crying because of Jungkook, it's just that I'd lost my favourite Chanel chain," retorts Jimin.
"In Jungkook's training room?" asks Tae.
"I'm sure I saw it around your neck at the time," adds Jin.
"And you have like a million chains, Jimin, which all look the same," concludes Hobi.
You laugh heartily on hearing all this and the others soon join you. "Right guys, we're here," says Namjoon from the front as the van parks in front of their London home. While the guys take their bags out of the van, you marvel at the amount of luggage they've brought for a week's trip. "Jin hyung, have you packed your kitchen in that bag?" you joke, pointing at his massive duffel bag.
Tae answers for him, shaking his hand, "Don't even ask, we actually had a fight about it before leaving for the airport. Jin hyung insisted that the best looking chef in London needed to bring the best looking tools."
"Ya! You won't be complaining when you eat my delicious food, made with the utensils personally crafted for me," Jin starts, which he continues to rant about while you all pile into the spacious house. There are 'oohs' and 'aahs' from the members as they explore the inside. "Wow, you did great Jungkookie!" praises Hobi. They all pat you on the back and you grin shyly.
"Why don't we all choose our rooms and come down for dinner in about 20 minutes. Then we can all catch up properly," suggests Namjoon. The rest of the members agree and disperse upstairs. You decide to sit at the dining table and text Noona.
/// Hi, Noona, how r u? I finally sorted da house for hyungs. I'm so happy they're here, it's like nothing's changed. I almost 4got we were in London but then I saw cars driving on the wrong side of the road lol. Of course there's u 2 😬😬🥰 What r u doing today? Arghh, I won't see u til 2mrw that's soooooo long 😭😭 ///
You smile as you wait for Noona to reply which doesn't take long, and you are about to tap on the new message that pops up when someone says, "Oooh who are you texting, Jungkook? You were smiling so much!" You instinctively put your phone away quickly as you know Jimin will want to know what's going on. He knows you too well and can easily extract information from you.
"Not now, Jimin hyung, I'll tell you about it later," you say. He doesn't say anything more and settles into the seat next to you. Before long, all the hyungs join you at the table. "What's for dinner?" asks Yoongi.
"I ordered different things for everyone to try. There are great restaurants in London so we won't be stuck for food," you say, giving a sideways glance to Jin. "Their takeaway service isn't as quick as in Korea, but they're ok." Just then, as though taking offence at what you've just said, the doorbell rings, and there stands a delivery guy, laden with bags of food. Within no time at all, everyone settles to eat and there is the usual chatter amongst the guys.
"Mmm, this hamburger isn't bad. What's 7Up? Is it the same as Sprite?"
"I guess this pizza is ok, but I'm sure I could have made a better one."
"Oh, I dropped my fork. Oh man, when did the spoon get on the floor?"
"Good thing I brought my own paprika, it'll add a nice kick to my chow mein."
"I'm ok, I'll just take a small bite from whatever you guys are eating."
"Hey, where's the alcohol?"
"I'll get it," you say, and promptly bring some cans of beer from the fridge. It feels like a typical night out with the guys. You talk about how busy the Academy has been, but how much you've been enjoying yourself. You say how glad you are you made the decision to come here. Everyone praises you for settling in so well and being all grown up. When all the food has been consumed, and most of the alcohol cleared, Namjoon puts his hands up and says, "Ok guys, we've put it off long enough. I think it's time to tell Jungkook."
You look at him wide-eyed and ask, "Oh? Tell me what?"
