Jimin POV:

Looking at the clock, I sighed. We had been practicing for the last twelve hours and I was exhausted. We were having an online concert on October 24 before flying to Los Angeles at the end of November and our schedule was jam-packed. Normally I loved the business of it all, but lately I was so tired that I wanted a break. With the time in New York, combined with the threats to Y/N, I just wanted to whisk my girlfriend away somewhere and protect her from everything going on, make sure that she was completely safe.

Knowing ARMY was excited about the concerts helped to renew some of my energy, but when it was four days in a row of long practices, I was just simply tired. Leaning my head back against the mirror, I waited for Song-deuk to come back into the room. He left ten minutes ago to take a phone call and we were all grateful for the unexpected break. We had immediately sat down, downing water and wiping the sweat that was pouring from our faces. The practice was supposed to end an hour ago, but Song-deuk wanted us to practice the choreography for a new song, something that we would show to ARMY for the first time on October 24.

We had also spent some time practicing our new solo songs. When we had performed our concert, Map of the Soul ON:E, we had debuted the songs from MOTS 7, performances ARMY had never seen before. We held another concert in June for FESTA and performed the songs from BE. This time would be something completely different. We had a new album being released, something we had kept quiet from ARMY and we were going to be unveiling the new songs during the online concert. Some ARMY had been speculating, but we had revealed nothing.

I was excited to see the reactions from ARMY, especially since my dance for Filter was so well received. The outfit change mid song was talked about for weeks afterwards and I was so thrilled that the fans had enjoyed it as much as they did. It was also one of the sexier dances I had done and it made me blush sometimes thinking about it. I wonder if Y/N liked it. I would have to make sure to ask her when I saw her later.

Thoughts of my girlfriend filled my mind again and I couldn't help but grin. I was completely in love with her, so fully and absolutely that I knew she was the one I wanted in my life. I had a conversation with my parents recently about her, letting them know I was serious about her and that I wanted to marry her someday. I had been a little surprised at their acceptance, especially since she wasn't Korean, but they had told me that as long as I was happy then they would be happy for me. They wanted to meet her and I promised to bring her home to Busan when I had my next break. The idea of introducing my girlfriend to my parents terrified me, but I knew if I wanted forever with her then it was the right thing to do.

I was worried when I told Y/N that I wanted to replace the ring I bough her with something more permanent one day. I know we had only been together seven months, but we had been talking a lot longer than that. Anyways, I didn't need a long relationship to tell me what I already knew. That she was the one for me.

Song-deuk came back into the room and we let out a collective groan as we got to our feet. I was exhausted and my whole body hurt. I knew if I told Y/N then she would tell me to go to the dorms tonight and rest, but I wanted to be in her arms, hold her close to me, kiss her soft lips and show her just how much I loved her, how much I wanted to be with her. As I took my place back in line, I looked up at the clock again. Ugh! How much longer is it going to be?

An hour later, I collapsed to the floor, grinning weakly when Jungkook rolled a water bottle towards me. I uncapped it then downed half the contents in a large swallow. We had finally finished for the night and I was more than ready to head home, to see my Y/N. The realization that I had called her apartment home made me think about the word. She really was my home. She was where I wanted to be all the time, one of the places I was most comfortable being. Even though I had my own apartment, just like the other members, if I wasn't with Y/N, I was at the dorm. It was just easier to live with my members since we traveled to the same building together everyday. However, I wanted Y/N to see the home I had chosen and maybe... maybe I could ask her to move in with me?
