"Hey Yoongi. What's up?" I answered the phone as it rang twice before I answered.

"Hey. I'm on the way to the airport to pick up Jungkook and Chanmi. Do you want to come?" Yoongi asked in his monotone voice.

"Wait, Jungkook and Chanmi are coming?" I questioned, a smile growing on my face as I placed my phone between my ear and shoulder so I could finish doing the dishes.

"Yeah. Didn't Jungkook message you?" He sniffled as I heard him turn on his car's indicator.

"No. I didn't know." I pursed my lips as I thought, hoping that I could recall anything about Jungkook telling me that he was coming down from Japan. I put the last pot onto the dish drainer and shook my wet hands over the sink before I dried them on a towel.

"Well, I'll come to pick you up. You have to tell them the news." It sounded as if he had turned off the car.

"What news?"

"Come outside, I'm here." He demanded.

"Jesus, ok. Wait a minute!" I told my impatient friend. "Taehyung, I'm going to the airport with Yoongi to pick up Jungkook and Chanmi." I called out to my partner.

"Alright!" He replied as I quickly gathered my phone, bag and jacket before leaving. I ran to Yoongi's car and got in saying a quick hello.

"What news are you talking about?" I asked, confused. Yoongi looked at me like I was stupid.

"You're engaged..." He rolled his eyes as I mumbled an 'oh', both of us laughing.

"Wait, how did you know? I haven't told you yet, have I?" I thought hard, trying to remember if I told him or not.

"No. Jimin told me... Congratulations by the way. I can't wait for the wedding." He smiled as he focused on the road.

"Thank you, but the wedding probably won't be for a while. We're running low on money. My mother said she'd help pay for it, but I don't want to be a burden. Taehyung and I should pay for it. Not her." I sighed.

"Aw, you're cute. Don't stress about this too much, otherwise you won't have fun on the day. Just let it go with the flow."

"I know, but I can't help it." I shrugged with a worried smile. "Anyway, where's Jungkook and Chanmi staying?" I wondered.

"With me. I didn't exactly want them to pay for a hotel." He told me. The rest of the short drive to the airport was silent as the radio played quietly in the background. Yoongi found a car park and I quickly got out of the car, running towards the pick up zone. "Yah, wait for me!" He shouted, running behind me. I slowed down as he caught up to me, and we walked inside together. I desperately looked around for my friends, but couldn't see them anywhere.

"Where are they?" I questioned to myself.

"They would of just landed. So they'll probably be about half an hour. Let's go get some coffee or something. I'm hungry." Yoongi answered, pulling me towards the food court. I followed along without a choice and thought about what to get since I didn't really feel like coffee.

"Yoongi, I want a burger!" I gasped as we passed McDonalds. I hadn't had McDonalds in a very long time, and seeing it now made me crave it.

"Yes, let us go eat burgers!" He cheered as we entered the small kiosk. We both ordered what we wanted, and Yoongi insisted to pay, yelling at me to save my money for my wedding. I gave up and let him, considering he was about to cause a scene in the middle of McDonalds. I sat at a table and waited for Yoongi to come back with the food. I quickly brought out my phone and saw that I had a couple of text messages; One from Taehyung and one from Jin. I opened Taehyung's first.
