Jimin's 1st Person POV
It's been ten years with Y/N by my side and it's been a journey, a beautiful one at that.
Y/N is thriving with her own event planning business. She's a master at what she does and she is highly sought-after as a wedding and birthday party planner. She's even done high profile weddings and birthdays over the years for actors, musicians, celebrity chefs, and so on.
I am currently a rehabilitation services director at one of the highest regarded physical therapy practices in Seattle. I'm also in the process of opening my own private practice with a partner, a fellow physical therapist I've worked with over the years, Minho Choi. He and I went through university together and went through all the motions. We have both been dreaming up having our own practice.
I think Y/N is my main inspiration for taking this step in my career. I see what she was able to build on her own and it gives me the push to do something as massive as she has.
After three years of living in our first home, the luxury condominium, we needed a larger home because that's when we found out we were expecting our first child. So we found the perfect home in a suburb in Bellevue. And, that's where we started to grow our little family.
We have two amazing children who are our pride and joy.
We have an eight year old son named Noah and a four year old daughter named Ava. And, these two are like complete night and day. They are so completely unlike each other! Noah is more reserved and calm like Y/N while Ava is outgoing and full of energy like me. While Noah likes to keep to himself and not take risks, Ava is a daredevil. We have to try to convince Noah to give new experiences a chance while Ava will just go and do it, no questions asked. Noah is insanely picky about food while Ava will try anything we place on her plate. And, we won't chock it up to age because Noah is exactly how he is now as he was when he was Ava's age- it's his natural demeanor and way of being. We adore the characteristics of our children. There's never a dull moment with those two!
We are, at the moment, driving up to our destination which is Olympic National Park, here in Washington. Y/N and I have been wanting to go camping, and we finally found some time to take the family out on a trip.
As we are driving, we pass a camping site with people setting up tents and there's a body of water close by. Y/N takes it upon herself to say something to see how both our children would react.
"Hey, kids! Look over there!" She points to the right and the kids follow their mom's direction.
"That's where we are going to set up camp and clean up in the lake!" My wife convincingly sounds enthusiastic.
In reality we are opting for lodging. While Ava would be okay 'roughing it in the wilderness,' Noah is all about the glamping lifestyle.
"WHAT?!" I hear Noah yell and could see sheer horror on his face from my interior rear view mirror.
"YES! FUN!" Ava screams in pure excitement.
All of a sudden, we hear sobs coming from our son. We didn't quite expect him to cry. And, of course Y/N automatically feels horrible and turns to Noah.
"Honey, what's wrong?!" She asks our son in a consoling voice.
"I don't...I don't want to camp outside like that! I want to be in air conditioning and...and I need real plumbing!" He says in complete anguish like it's the end of the world. He sniffles in between words.
"Noah, Mom was only joking around. We are heading to the lodge now and we have our own cabin!" I say, trying to comfort him.
Noah continues to sniffle, "Oh."
"Aw, bummer," our four year old laments in the cutest way and Y/N and I can't help but softly giggle at our daughter's disappointment.
"Kids, I'm sorry I made you think that we are camping in tents. Mommy's sorry, okay? But, we will have fun in the comfort of a cabin but we will also enjoy nature all week so everyone is going to enjoy themselves, okay?!" My sweet wife tries to cheer up the kids but they both just nod and make less enthusiastic sounds showing they agree. It's enough of a reaction, I guess.
When we park in front of the lodge, we see a familiar vehicle- it's the Jeons' SUV. We are doing this camping trip with Jungkook, Lea and their six year old daughter, Mia.
Mia is as precocious as Ava and she seems to have a cute innocent crush on Noah. It's actually quite adorable how Mia follows Noah around at family gatherings.
Both of our families decided to rent out neighboring cabins so that we can really enjoy the trip together.
As we start unloading the car and the children get out of our vehicle, we see Jungkook, Lea and Mia emerge from their cabin.
"THE PARKS! IT'S ABOUT TIME YOU ALL SHOWED UP!" Lea yells with pep in her voice.
We've all been so busy that we haven't spent quality time like this, so we are definitely excited to see them and start all the fun.
We all gather and exchange hugs all around.
Y/N and I get all our stuff settled into our cabin while Jungkook and Lea volunteer to watch Noah and Ava in their cabin.

It's now 8pm. We spent the remainder of the day exploring the area. Now, both families are joined in front of the Jeons' cabin fire pit that is set up. The kids are gathered around the pit, enjoying making s'mores, with adult supervision, of course.
"Mommy! I want want one with a peanut butter cup!" Ava begs Y/N.
"Oh, me, too!" I playfully chime in after my daughter.
"I'll make you one, too, Daddy!" Ava sweetly tells me.
"Thanks, sweetheart," I tell her as I ruffle the top of her head, making her giggle. I sit right next to her on the log bench she's sitting on.
"Here's a package of peanut butter cups, Ava! Have your dad help you roast the marshmallows," Y/N orders her daughter.
"Yes, Mommy!" Ava politely answers her mom.
"Hey, guys, we'd like everyone's attention!" Jungkook tells us all, but it's mainly directed towards Y/N and me.
"What's up, Kook?" I ask one of my best friends.
"Well, both our parents were the first to find out, but since you guys are our closest friends. I mean, Y/N, you're like my sister! We wanted to share that we are expecting another baby!"
"OH MY GOSH!" Both Y/N and I scream in joy! All the adults jump happily and hug each other. Both Ava and Mia sense something positive so they hugged us all, too. And, well Noah- he remained on one of the log cabins with his headset, watching something on his device.
"Wow! This is amazing! I wish the rest of the crew could join us here!" Y/N comments.
"Well, we are going to have a gathering soon. We'll tell everyone then!" Lea confirms.
"Who knew our lives would be this way! I'm so glad we all kept in touch," Y/N says.
We continue all talking and laughing and trying to entertain the kids.
Out of the blue, Ava comes up to me. "Daddy, how did you meet Mommy?"
Y/N and I looked at each other with widened eyes.
"Well, sweetheart..."
