Kiki plops her butt onto the comfortable couch in the boys' break room, tired from dancing like a maniac for hours. She grins, watching them continue to dance through the doorway.

As she relaxes, she reflects on her feelings of joy and happiness. Kiki realizes she hasn't been this happy in almost a decade. Even though she's feeling immense happiness, she's also acknowledging and letting go of the pain and sadness she's been holding on to for so long.

She turns her head away from the doorway to hide the tears her raw emotions brought to her eyes. She sniffles quietly as tears spill down her cheeks. Kiki doesn't want to cry, but she knows she'll feel better after getting a good cry in. Crying is a good way to release pent up emotions and Kiki definitely has a lot of those.

Kiki, so lost in her thoughts, didn't notice Hoseok enter the room and join her on the couch. She was slightly startled when he pulled her into his arms, holding her head to his chest. His comforting presence made her cry harder for a few minutes as he gently ran his fingers through her hair.

Once she calmed down a bit he asks quietly, "are you okay, my pretty Kiki?"

"I'm okay. I just realized this is the happiest I've been in many, many years and my emotions decided to express themselves by making me cry hysterically. No big deal," she sniffles again as Hobi holds her cheeks and wipes her tears with his thumbs.

"Do you feel better now?" He asks, still holding her face.

"I do. I'm so incredibly happy, Hobi. It honestly feels unreal. I forgot what it felt like to feel real happiness like this," Hoseok smiles and wipes the fresh tears leaking from her eyes, "I want to thank all of you for reminding me that I deserve to feel this way. I've just been floating through life since I was raped, feeling empty and sad most of the time. Of course I'm happy when I'm with my family and friends but those feelings don't last long. I genuinely feel so much better now and I'm so grateful to you and the boys," her gratitude clear in her eyes before she removes Hoseok's hands from her face so she can hug him again.

Kiki melts into Hobi's embrace, enjoying the sound of his steady heartbeat in her ear. He kisses the top of her head before resting his head there.

"We all love you Kimura. I'm happy that you're releasing your hurt and embracing the happiness. I know that's not an easy thing to accomplish, but the guys and I are all here to help you through your struggles," he kisses her head again, lifting her so he can look into her eyes, "you're so strong, pretty Kiki, and I'm proud of you for continuing to live even when you didn't want to anymore. I'm very thankful that you came into our lives. I love the guys with my whole heart, of course, but we felt something was missing and we all knew it was you the moment we laid eyes on you in this very room yesterday."

Kimura blushes and tries to hide her face in his chest, but he holds her by her shoulders so she couldn't hide, "I can't believe this is actually happening. Are you sure you want me with all my baggage?"

"Don't be ridiculous. We all have baggage and we all love each other regardless. Are you sure you want us with all of our baggage?" Hobi asks, trying to lighten the mood.

"I guess you have a point. I just feel like my baggage is still haunting me and will be for the rest of my life even though I let go of the feelings of hurt and anger, I'll always have anxiety and probably depression, and I'll never be able to birth children. That's not something that can be forgotten," she sadly explains.
