Seokjin opened the door to his house, Jungkook standing right outside. "Kook, what are you doing here?"

"Can we talk?" Seokjin opened his mouth to speak but a scream interrupted him. "Oh- your children are here."

"Yeah... Is it important?"

"I mean... kind of?" Seokjin opened his door further. Jungkook stepped in, thankful that his friend wanted to hear him out. He turned to the living room where 5 pair of eyes looked up at him. "...Since when do you have 5 children?" The door to Seokjin's bathroom opened, a familiar face walking out. "Yoongi- Are these your children?"

Yoongi looked taken aback by the arrival of another person but flashed him a little smile anyway. "Uh yeah, they are... We organized a play date for them." Jungkook looked down at the 3 unfamiliar children, smiling kindly at them. Jungkook knew Yoongi had children but he had never met them before. The two men were never close to begin with, Yoongi's shop was just Jungkook's favorite so he was a familiar face.

"What is it that you needed to talk about?" Seokjin spoke up, snapping Jungkook out of his thoughts. "Right, I need your advice."

"I don't blame him for being scared Jungkook. Once you get caught you get locked away for life."

"Then why do you risk it? You have children... There must be a reason that you're willing to risk it eventhough you have a lot to lose."

"I'm not scared because I know my ex's parents will bail me out. They're rich and influential and don't want me to be ripped out of my children's life. Not everyone has that much luck."

"But you are willing to risk Yoongi's life?"

"I wouldn't let him get arrested Jungkook- I know how to be careful. And else I will just put up my puppy dog eyes and ask the Richmond's to get him out as well." Jungkook pouted, his family was kind of rich... However Taehyung's family came to be from a teacher's salary. He doubts that Taehyung could walk free once found out.

Taehyung sat down at the museum in front of a giant painting. He had a notepad and pencil in his hand, sketching the overall composition down on his paper. His hands were at work but his mind was somewhere else, constantly getting distracted. In frustration Taehyung put aside his sketch, just trying to empty his mind instead.

"Uh oh, someone isn't very happy." Someone said. Taehyung turned around to face who ever was teasing him. "Hi." The woman offered Taehyung a warm smile. "Hey."

"Why the grumpy face?"

"Oh... A lot is going on at work." Taehyung lied through his teeth. Well, it wasn't a complete lie... The only place where his problems were near him was at work. "Oh, you have a stressful job?"

"Teacher." The woman immediately got a knowing look on her face. "My cousin is a teacher, I heard all about it." She shyly sat down next to Taehyung, extending her hand. "I'm Blaine."

"Taehyung." He accepted her handshake. "So what do you do in a museum?"

"I'm an art history teacher, I love seeing and making art." Blaine's eyes fell on Taehyung's notepad, recognizing the painting in his scribbles. "I can see that."

"What are you doing here?" Taehyung returned the question. "Oh you know, I walked outside and saw a handsome stranger sitting on the bench and I just had to go look." Taehyung softly laughed, shyly looking at the ground. "And now the truth?"

"Was supposed to meet a date here but he stood me up." She checked her nails, she seemed unfazed by it. "Aren't you sad about that?"

"No, my parents set us up... Glad he didn't show.. Kind of an ass." She had a playful smile dancing on her face. "But I did mean it about the handsome stranger. You look well kept for a man. Aside from the bags... You should sleep more."

"Thank you and I'll try."

"What do you say about becoming my new date? I mean we're both here, alone."

"Sounds lovely."
