"Hobi, we have to go now, Joon is here with the car!" Jieun yells down the hallway.

"I'm coming!" Hobi yells back. Jieun cringes as a loud bang sounds from the bedroom, "I'm fine! Just a wall," Hobi yells.
A honk comes from the front of the apartment and Jieun sighs, "I'm gonna leave you here!" She grabs her suitcase and heads open the front door.
"I'm here, I'm here," Hobi says, rushing down the hallway with his suitcase in tow.
Jieun sighs, looking at her husband, exasperated. Of course, he would have gotten distracted in his studio and forgotten to pack until the last minute.
"You really ready? You don't normally walk in these," Jieun asks, ignoring Namjoon's honking from the street.
Hobi just grins, "Of course I'm ready, I've had the best teacher!"
Jieun rolls her eyes, trying to hide her smile as she walks out the open door and down the short flight of stairs.
"Took you guy's long enough!" Namjoon comments once both of them are in the car, their bags are in the trunk.
"Hobi decided to wait until the last minute to pack," Jieun says, frowning when Hobi flicks her arm.
"I was trying to finish an order for that grandma who came by the other day," Hobi says defensively.
Jieun nods, "I know, and I love you for it," She smiles at him, and he flushes slightly.
Namjoon pretends to throw up in the driver's seat, "Y'all are the worst, next time ask someone else to drive you," He turns and pulls the car into traffic.
"As if we didn't ask literally everyone before you," Hobi teases.
"Stop, Namjoon can drive perfectly fine," Jieun says, slapping Hoseok's arm.
Namjoon sighs, "I've had my license longer than you have been married, hush."
"I mean that hasn't been the longest time," Hobi continues to tease Namjoon.
Jieun shakes her head, "It's been five years, dufus!"
"Really?" Hobi asks before yelping as Jieun tries to tackle him in the backseat of the car.

Somehow, they manage to get to the airport in one piece. Namjoon kicked them out of the car with love before speeding off.
"I wish he would come one of these times," Jieun says wistfully as the man drove away.
Hoseok pats her back, "You know he wouldn't leave Jin and you know Jin is too attached to the café."
Jieun nods, "And Jisoo. I don't know how they found such a cute kid to adopt, although she matches them pretty well."
"As pretty as Jin and as clumsy as Namjoon," Hoseok nods agreeing.
"Says the man that walked into a wall like 10 minutes ago," Jieun looks at him with an eyebrow raised and he shrugs.
Jieun sighs out a chuckle before they walk into the airport.
"Are we going alone or meeting the others?" Hoseok asks, grabbing Jieun's free hand with his as they walk.
"Were meeting Tae, Kook, Jimin, and Danbi at the gate," Jieun tells him.
Someone yells from their right and they glance over, "Or now," Jieun laughs.
Taehyung comes bounding over, leaving Jungkook to carry both of their luggage, "Hi, guys, I'm so excited!"
"Hey Tae," Jieun grins at him, leaving her own suitcase to give the man a bear hug he couldn't get away from if he wanted to, he didn't want to get away though, he was hugging her just as hard.
"Didn't you guys see each other yesterday?" Hobi asks, already knowing the answer to his question.
Jungkook catches up to them, "They do this all the time. Sometimes I feel like I don't exist next to them."
"Bro's before hoes!" Jieun giggles, pulling away from Taehyung. Hobi just shakes his head, muttering, "Goofy kid," In the most loving voice he had.
"You guys we are going to miss the flight if we don't get a move on," Jungkook says, starting toward the security line.
Jieun nods, grabbing her suitcase and Taehyungs hand, following Jungkook. Hobi chuckles but follows the others.
Luckily the security line didn't take very long and the four were able to get through quickly with no problems.

At the gate, Jimin and Danbi were huddled together talking quietly.
Taehyung bounces away from Jieun to tackle his soulmate, making the smaller man squeak in surprise.
The rest of them walk up, Jieun giving Danbi a quick hug before sitting in the chair on her other side.
"How's life?" Jieun asks, wiggling her eyebrows.
Danbi just laughs, "Everything is all good, Hopefully, Changbin and Chan don't burn the apartment down trying to take care of Felix."
Jieun grins, "How old is he now? Three?"
"Yeah, he's three, I still feel weird about leaving my kid behind. I mean It's not the first time I've done it but still." Danbi shrugs.
Jieun nods, "I would say I understand but I really don't have any idea."
Danbi laughs, "It's all good, babe."
"Well, I'm sure the boys will all be fine while we are gone. And they can call Jin if they need to, he seems to have the parenting thing down from what I can tell," Jieun reassures her friend who agrees with a smile.
Soon it's time for them to board their plane. The flight was a small one, there were not too many other passengers also going to Paris at the time, which was lucky because sometimes the group did get mobbed.
"I'm gonna knock out on the flight," Jungkook says as they all walk out onto the tarmac.
Danbi agrees, knocking fists with him.
"We still need to talk about the item we're sending in," Jieun reminds her, and she nods slightly disappointed her sleeping time had gotten smaller.
They choose a row on the plane and pull out their books, planning for the event a few days away.
