[Emily's POV]

2 years ago...

The pitiless rain falls fiercely from the velvet night sky, tapping out a peculiar tune as the heavy droplets hit the van's hard surface.

"I'll go first and scope the area out. If I find anything, I'll call you in," Sam purrs out over the sound of the furious lightning, as he adjusts his earpiece before checking his handgun's magazine. 

"Be in touch, dude," Jinyoung mutters, fist-bumping him, as the boy with fiery ginger hair nods in response before turning to me and pecking me on the lips. "Be safe," Sam mumbles to my mouth.

"You too," I whisper back, as the red-headed boy exits the van, leaving me alone in eerie silence with my older brother. The roar of thunderstorms increases and decreases as the door opens and closes, sending shivers down my spine.

I lean back in my seat, scrutinizingly watching Jinyoung as the bright monitor of his laptop reflects in his dark orbs. "So how excited are you?"

He sends me a bewildered look. "About Sammy and the baby," I clarify. He smiles to himself, probably thinking about his girlfriend with an adorable round belly waiting for him at home. 

"Three more weeks to go," Jinyoung breathes out nervously, his brown eyes telling of pure energy tempered by an undercurrent of nervousness.

"Emily?"

"Hm?" I hum in response. 

"Do you think I'm going to be a good father?"

My expression softens as I reach out to his hand, "you're going to be the best father for your child, Jinyoung," I say squeezing his hand between my palms. "Remember that you're not alone. I, Sam, dad, and Felix are always here for you and Sammy whenever you need us." 

"And, bro," Sam's low grunt echoes through the earpiece, "it's not like you have a choice. You hurt my sister or my baby niece, I'm gonna throw you out of the window real quick."

The small smile that prickles on my lips, soon transforms into a full-blown grin. Jinyoung snorts, lowering his head, "Wow, Sam, that makes me feel so much better." 

A heavy silence fills the space, while raindrops batter the city like hail. "Guys?" Sam grumbles through the earpiece again, the warning tone of his voice making me sit up immediately, "you have to see this."
