The trip through the airport was a much more relaxed feeling than it usually was since the media wasn't informed of their departure this time. Once they were settled in the private first class lounge, The Muse looked at Hobi and smiled,

"Coffee? Pretty please?"

Namjoon didn't even look up from his phone when he said, "Make sure it's decaf."

Rolling her eyes at him, The Muse refocused on Hobi and batted her eyes.

"I can take you" Yoongi spoke up. "I could use an Americano."

"I want a chocolate croissant!" said Tae, "I'll come, too."

"I could use a coffee." Jimin stood and stretched his arms above his head as he prepared to join the group.

The Muse was having a small panic moment. She didn't want to go with them. She wanted to stay with her Warriors. But the cameras were rolling, and she didn't know what footage would be used, so she had to act like everything was normal.

"Breathe." Jinnie spoke in her head. He wasn't even there, but he felt her panic. "Relax. It's going to be ok."

Hobi reached over and squeezed her knee, "Let's go. I need coffee, too."

Nodding she stood, careful to make sure her clothes stayed loose in all the right places as they grouped up to get their coffee.

    Yoongi moved beside her and placed his hand on her lower back to help guide her to the coffee stand. Such a familiar move. Chivalrous and loving. And wholly unwanted. The Muse wanted to reach back and remove his hand, but couldn't. Reaching out to connect with Hobi, she was unable to say what she wanted, instead she let him feel what she was feeling. Thankfully Hobi understood and wanted to help her as well as save Yoongi from any future guilt once he knew about her inability to voice her true wants and needs when they were touching her, so he reached back and grabbed her by the hand, pulling her up to him and away from the touch that was causing the discomfort. Her body relaxed and she giggled at something Hobi had said. She felt Yoongi's disappointment as well as the sadness coming from the other two husbands walking behind them. Obviously, she didn't want to be near them and wasn't going to accept them back so easily.

    Hobi handed her her caffeinated blended cup of chocolate goodness with his other finger in front of his lips, "We'll tell Joon it's decaf."

She smiled brightly and danced a tiny jig before taking the first sip of her treat, but her eyes never left the bag in his hand that held her chocolate croissant.

Chuckling, he said "Do you want me to carry this back to the seating area for you?"

Snorting in a very unladylike way she said, "You can carry the bag if you want, but I'm eating that croissant right away." The Muse grabbed the little paper bag from him and fished out it's contents like she hadn't eaten in days. Not true, of course. Jinnie had fed her a huge breakfast an hour before they left for the dorm. But that breakfast was not a chocolate croissant.

    Despite being held at arm's length, her husbands found her actions to be adorable and humorous as she attacked the food. Even her little pout when it was gone was cute.

Namjoon eyed the cup in her hand when they'd returned to the waiting area suspiciously.

"Is that decaffeinated?" he asked.

His Queen smiled prettily and said "Absolutely."

He snorted and shook his head before looking back down at his phone, knowing full well that she wouldn't drink decaf without a fight.

"Why is she supposed to drink decaf?" asked Yoongi. "She never has before."

Joon took a deep breath and shrugged, "Decaf is just better for her."

"Does it affect her muse or something?" asked Tae, curious concern written all over his face.

"No, nothing like that." Joon answered lightly, "We are just trying to help her eat more healthy." it wasn't a lie. He was trying to help her eat healthier.

The Muse smiled and took a big sip of her chocolate blended coffee that was topped with a mound of whipped cream and chocolate syrup drizzle before wiping at the corners of her mouth to make sure there were no remnants of her chocolate croissant.

Her treats were gone when they boarded the plane. She had a love/hate relationship with the mega first class flights. She loved the seating. It was comfortable and the food was way better. Plus, it was as private as you could be on a plane. But, it was also harder to get the touch she needed like this. She had two very long flights ahead of her and would need as much touch as she could get to get through it comfortably.

As they walked down the hallway toward the plane, Joonie turned to her, "Remember you have to get up and walk around every so often. Once an hour would be best."he quoted out of some article he read about traveling safely while pregnant. "We don't want your feet and ankles to swell."

She wrapped her arm around his middle and gave him a half hug while they walked, thinking about how annoying and sweet he was.

The Muse ended up being placed across the aisle from Jungkook. He'd been quiet with her so far this morning, and for that she'd been thankful. But his eyes never strayed far from her. She'd felt him watching her. They were all focused on her. That would be one nice thing about the first class seating. She would have a break from all of them staring.

The Staff made sure her camera was set up properly in front of her, and they were ready to go.

Singapore airlines was plush, and once they figured out how to fold the seats into beds, it was over. Most of them had a hard time staying awake until meal time. The Muse was able to nap a little beforehand and was more than ready for the food when it came. It was delicious! She had never had food that good on a plane before. After she was done, she got up and walked over to Joonie. He was asleep, but she obnoxiously shook him awake so she could prove she had walked around a little. He mumbled something and went back to sleep before she chuckled and went to the bathroom.

    Tae was sleeping, so she had no fear of being ambushed for a round of airplane sex. She had to smile at those memories. It was super hot. And he was a fantastic lover. And she really  needed to not think about that right at that moment. Her chances of getting Namjoon or Hoseok to bang her silly on the plane or in the airport were slim to none.

    Laying back down, she saw they had another two hours to go before they landed in Singapore for their 3 hour layover. She was very tired and getting cold. She knew she needed touch, but needed to suck it up for a bit. Wrapping the blanket they provided around herself, she checked in on Petal, who was happily entertaining herself, before nodding off to sleep.
