This made me chuckle the first time I read this, but alas I am only a fan. A really big one for the last 4 years, but just a fan none the less. I can talk about my whole journey loving them and everything if you all want, just ask. Iâm always happy to talk to you all.

AN: Here's part 2. I'm sorry it's been so long. Hope you like it. ~Bagel
Those few days easily turn into a week and that week turns into nearly a month before you can convince the group of brothers that you need to leave. The weather stayed cold and frigid well beyond what the forecast had originally said and Namjoonâs caring nature along with the sweet spot you had for the academic and the constant insistence of Jin caused you to stay until the weather had cleared up and most of the snow had melted. The youngest had kept his distance from you. Always cordial and nice but never staying in the same room with you for too long. You didnât know why he would avoid you so much, but you would never push the issue at all. The less contact you had and the fewer relationships you made would help with the lack of contact you knew was going to happen.Â
By far, the hardest part of living with the humans was covering up your lack of need for normal food and drink. You were positive at this point that Namjoon thought you had an eating disorder by how he would glance over during meals in an effort to make sure you were eating or the little comments asking if you ate or if you needed any food. You would eat with them just to keep up with appearances and to put the scholar's mind at ease even when it made you feel sick. The food sitting in your stomach like lead until you could find a time to expel it without drawing any more concern from Namjoon.Â
Jin had eventually convinced you to feed from him on two separate occasions during your stay. A new record for the human. The first time was early on in your stay with the three men. Your self-control was near non-existent by then and having to live with the three humans just made everything worse until one night he found you clawing at the side of your neck from the burning that had grown to an inferno over the last few days of being so close to them. Jin was the one to pull your hand away from the raw skin and whisk you into his room as you broke down. Shoving his arm into your face and refusing to let you leave until you drank enough to be healthy again. Even when he felt himself becoming lightheaded and you could hear his heartbeat becoming faint, he refused to let you pull away until your face held some color and your hands stopped shaking. The second time wasnât nearly as dramatic but still just as necessary in his eyes. The human had healed and recovered from the first feeding by then and cornered you when he saw the weather beginning to turn for the better and it was just the two of you in the apartment. Making sure you fed once more before you slipped out one night when everyone was asleep as you tended to do during these extended stay with the three brothers.
The routine never wavered when it came to your life with the boys. You would stay for a while, Jin fussing over you like an older brother even if you were many many decades older than him as Namjoon and Taehyung remained oblivious to your true nature. Or at least you think they didnât know what you were. There were plenty of close calls with Namjoon and Taehyung should have no memory of the one and only time you had fed from him. You would stay just long enough to recover and recoup before you slipped away from the small home in the middle of the night with a note saying thanks. Jin would always text you to complain that he didnât get to tell you goodbye and that you better take care of yourself or else. His concern for you always made your dead heart warm but you also never understood why he would care for a monster like you. You had blood on your hands, countless skeletons in your closet, you had hurt him so many times in the past, you were not a good person in any way in your eyes, and could never see what Jin saw in you. No matter how many times he would try to explain to you his reasons, you could never reconcile his view of you with your own. It always seemed like he was explaining a different person and not you.Â
It was no different this time. For the first time though, Jin had figured out your plan and cornered you with a half-hearted attempt at convincing you to stay before giving in and saying goodbye. He had learned over the years that you were stuck in your ways and he couldnât change it on his own. Lovingly scolding you about staying in touch before he lets you walk out the front door. Your chest feels lighter than during your previous exits. It felt nice to have some closure with the eldest.Â
Where do I go now? You ask yourself. I could go back home. Itâs been awhile. Your bag slung on one shoulder with your things. Jin slipped a few new pieces of clothing into it over the month of your stay that he insisted didnât fit any of the brothers anymore or something he claimed to get for cheap and reminded him of you. While you remembered what it was like being human and wanting to give gifts to those you cared for, it still felt weird for him or Namjoon to give you things. The younger one is always exchanging books and recommendations with you. You had given him the last few that you had finished during your latest travels and he had given you a copy of his professorâs newest book on folklore in return. It always made you smile at how passionate he was on the subject. You knew that it was his subject of specialty as he was working for his doctorate. Talking with the academic showed to you he was particularly interested in vampires and the different interpretations of them in different cultures and time periods. It made you sweat that he knew so much but also entertained you on how far the mythos had developed separately from true vampires. There were plenty of times you nearly slipped up and straight up told him that certain things were wrong because of how ridiculous some of the myths were but always bit your tongue before you said something that you wouldnât be able to take back.
The added weight in your pack and the new resolve from being with your human friends, you decided to make your way to another friend. One that you have known for most of your vampiric life and you knew would welcome you in with open arms. He was welcoming to everyone, especially to his close friends.Â
It took a while, but you finally made it. Making your way to the mansion that stood before you was longer than you would have liked. You had to stop more times than normal and an unfortunate run in with a few creeps ended with more blood for you and the guys scared enough to hopefully keep them from trying anything to anyone else. You werenât worried about the consequences because truly who would believe a few drunk men claiming they were attacked by a vampire.
You make your way up the winding pathway up towards the door. The gardens surrounding you are so familiar and the place that feels the most like home to you now. You had spent so many years exploring these grounds. Spending days and weeks tending to the different flora around the grounds. Making sure it grew and flowered, that the plants thrived under your care. It was some of the only times you still felt human after being turned.
âY/N! It's so good to see you.â The familiar voice tears you from your memories and towards its owner. Blinking a few times as you try to remember knocking on the door before returning the smile of the man in front of you before his arms are around you. âItâs been far too long. Come in. You need to tell me everything youâve been up to.â
âYou look just as great as ever Jimin. You need to give me your tips.â You joke a bit. Causing that beautiful tinkling of his laugh to fill your ears and tug your smile even wider. The tension you didnât know you were holding melting from your body.
âYou flatter me too much. I could say the same to you.â He muses. âThings have changed quite a bit since youâve been by.â He begins before a new voice chimes through the air.Â
âHyung! Whoâs at the door?â A taller male bounds around the corner and makes you stop in your tracks. Jimin was living alone last time you had seen him. So who was this young man standing at the top of the stairs looking down at you?

So How to Mend a Broken Spirit hybrids share a lot with their animal counterparts. One of the weirder ones is Jungkook and dead sleep. Its normal for ferrets to have what's called 'deep sleep' where they are so deep in their sleep cycle that they seem dead. And Jungkook is no different.
Completely limp and unresponsive to the outside world. And this terrified mc when they first experienced this phenomenon. They very nearly bounced into the living room one day only to find Kook passed out on the couch. They're bored and Jungkook is always down to play and mess around or at the very least they can get pulled into the nap with the ferret hybrid. He's the easiest way to entertain them and mc is now determined to wake him.
So they carefully walk over and carefully begin to shake his shoulder. Softly calling out his name. And nothing happens. Yeah, they weren't expecting Kook to jump up immediately and be ready to go but there should've been something. A groan, Kook's hand rising up to try and push them away, rolling over, something. And yet there was not even a trace of a reaction to what mc was doing.
The panic as slow rising. Starting with more vigorous shaking and a louder call of his name. Still nothing. No reaction. Mc even goes as far to raise his hand and let it drop. Accidently letting him slap himself. This causes a meltdown for mc. Sprinting away and calling out for Yoongi. Scared that your friend is seriously not okay.
The human peeks out of his office as he hears mc calling for him. Eyes widening and immediately trying to comfort the hyperventilating fennec fox hybrid barreling towards him. They hit him full force and it takes a few moments before they calm down enough to tell him what happened.
When Yoongi finally realizes what was happening he can't help the giggle that bubbles up. Carefully explaining dead sleep to mc as he walks back to the living area and helps to calm mc. Jungkook beginning to stir out of the deep sleep by the time the two get back to him. Hair sticking in every direction and a faint red mark forming on his cheek where his hand had hit his own skin.
Mc jumps into his arms and just holds him. Jungkook dazed and utterly confused just holds them close. Safe to say, mc learned how to tell when Kook was in dead sleep vs needed help very quickly after that.
Hi everyone! I promise I'm still alive. Life is wild and I've hit a major writing block but I still come in and look at the notes and traction the blog gets.
I want to get back into writing but I need some inspiration. If you have things you want to know about my characters/questions you have for them/little writing ideas or whatever, I would love to hear them.
Thanks for all of the recent love on the fics and I hope you keep liking and interacting with things.
Until next time, which I will try to make much sooner.
platonic!BTS x foreign!8th member!reader with a Namjoon and Jimin focus
Summary: You have an emergency at a solo concert
Warnings: fainting, concerned Jimin and Namjoon, Namjoon goes a bit into leader mode,
This just popped into my head. I hope you enjoy it. Its a bit angsty, a bit fluffy and a lot of good ole protective BTS. ~Bagel
This was the members' worst nightmare. It started out great. You were having a solo concert in a foreign country to promote your album during this time of BTS Chapter 2. It was something you've been working on for years and were so excited to show the world a more mature side of yourself. Being the youngest caused many to baby you and only see you as such.
It was going perfect so far. The turn out was more than you had ever expected with the venues selling out within a few hours of tickets going live. The multiple practices and soundchecks went off without a hitch, you were uncharacteristically energetic, you went onto several talk shows and the reception had been great so far, and a few members had even surprised you by flying out to see the concert. Namjoon and Jimin having time in their schedule to see you in your home country and support you in this huge moment.
That's why this was so shocking when it happened. You had walked off stage and collapsed as soon as you were hidden from the crowd. The members there were escorted backstage to the green room to meet you during your ending ment to beat the crowd and were confused as the staff started to become more and more frantic as they had to wait longer and longer for you to arrive. The two only catch a few words here and there as they watch. Namjoon is just about to ask what was happening when the door slams open by your bodyguard and you're carried in. The two men pushed to the side as the watch on helplessly as the staff got the oxygen and ice pack. Your feet are lifted up to help the blood flow towards your head.
This wasn't the first time they had to experience this. They all had pushed themselves to the edge during performances many times but it never got easier seeing someone you consider family going through it. Jimin turns to the first person he could to start asking a million questions as Namjoon pushes through the people to get as close to you as he can.
Your vision is swimming and everything that you hear above the ringing sounds muffled as you come to. The faces and figures placed around you are blurry and unfamiliar. Your hands come up to push at the mystery hands you felt on you.
"Stop it. They're trying to help you." Namjoon's voice cuts through the ringing and you feel his hand slip into yours as you're gently sat up. Everything feels like it's in slow motion as you move your head towards the leader. You try to give him a smile but fail due to the mask over your mouth from the respirator. Although you do give his hand a weak squeeze. An ice pack gets moved to your neck and causes you to shiver. The chill shocks your system to being more awake and you become aware of Jimin's voice in the room as well.
You couldn't follow what he was saying as your brain was still waking up, but you could tell he slipped into his Busan satoori. His phone was pressed to his ear and his free hand rapidly gesturing around the room as he spoke. Pacing around as you assumed he told the members not there about what had happened.
"Minnie." You manage to croak out after the respirator is removed from your face. Jimin freezes and ends the call before he moves towards you. Kneeling down and taking your other hand as he smiles at you. His eyes disappearing from his smile as the tension leaves his muscles seeing you up and lucid. You return his smile as you feel fans moving the air around you and ice packs pressed against your skin.
"Hey birdie." He says softly. The nickname releasing some of the tension in your shoulders you weren't aware of until then. Your smile widening as well.
"Did you enjoy the show?" You ask. Your hopes of lightening the mood come to fruition as you hear both men chuckle at the question.
"Yes, y/n. Your show was great." Namjoon is the first to answer. "You don't have to go this hard though. You gave us a heart attack when you got carried in here." He says. The staff members back off a bit as you start to talk.
"I know. I know." You begin. A sharp pang of guilt pierces through your chest as he articulates the concern they both had. "I was excited and just pushed too hard. I just wanted to make everyone proud."
"And we are. You did so good. Didn't you hear how loud everyone was cheering?" Jimin chimes in. Reassuring you as best he can with his words. His hand comes up to brush back some hair that fell into your face during all the chaos. Namjoon puts his arm around your shoulders and gives you a side hug.
~~~~~~
You stay in that green room longer than you would normally. The staff and medics keeping you from leaving until you were cleared before sneaking the three of you out a back entrance and to the hotel. Jimin and Namjoon refuse to leave your side. Arms around your waist to keep you up and to help steady you in spite of your protests and reassurances. Nothing you said could convince the two to leave your side. You were sure that they would have stayed the night in your hotel room if you didn't put your foot down and kicked them out. Namjoon only agreeing to leave if he got a key card so he could enter if there was an emergency.
"How will you know there's an emergency?" You had asked as you held the extra card in your hand. Looking to the leader with a small tilt in your head.
"I'm sure the commotion that will happen on the floor will be a good indication." He tells you as he grabs the card. The two telling you goodbye after they had given you several hugs and Jimin lingering near your door before getting called by Namjoon to go to their rooms.
A relationship with Yoongi is stolen glances across a room of people. Hidden kisses and whispered dreams late at night. Wrapped up in each other's arms as the sun barely pokes it's rays into the room you share. It's three quick squeezes of your hand as he leads you through a crowd. His head down but hold of you firm and unwilling to let go.
Jungkook is sporadic. He calls you in the middle of the night because he can't sleep. Asking if you want to go to the 24 hour convience store that's down the street to grab food. He's the one to just show up at your home after work. Bags of food and drinks in his arms as he smiles at you. Random karaoke dates and dance offs. Serenading you with the most random of songs that are playing in his head on repeat.
Jin keeps you home with him. Cooking for you between jokes and pulling you into his errands to just have time with you. Late night trips to the grocery store and tossing laundry at each other while you try to fold. Play fights and constant bickering that always dissolves into giggles.
Hoseok takes you on trips and random shopping spree pushing you to get item after item until you can barely carry everything in your arms. Grabbing your bags so you can get even more. Random presents and packages arriving at your door with gifts that he found and insisted made him think of you even if you feel that he just likes to buy you things.
Jimin is matching outfits and jewelry. Showing off the new pieces on the Weverse lives and to the others. He finds ways to brag about you to everyone that will listen. Small gifts and handmade items appear in your home. His clothing slowly integrating into your wardrobe. His shirts and hoodies on a constant rotation for you.
Namjoon is art dates and book stores. It's the random art that just appears in your home when he gets back from different trips. Finding out what he can of your interests and favorites. Buying you books and loaning his favorites to you. He stays in and orders food for you both as you settle in to watch a new show or movie together. Spending more time laughing and talking than paying attention to the story playing out on the TV. Sitting next to each other as you both do your own thing.
Taehyung is random photo shoots and jazz clubs. He pulls you into small speakeasys and dive bars. Places with very few patrons and a live band that he can dance with you to. He pulls you onto the dance floor and twirls you around. Boxy smiles as he picks out accessories and clothing for you. Cryptic photos on his Instagram of the two of you. Pictures of your smile, of when you're hugging him, your face out of view but your presence in his life on full display.
Thank you for the request! It's fun writing for Jin. I hope you enjoy this drabble.
~Bagel
You wondered sometimes why you decided to date a giant of a man. One that would place glasses and snacks on too high of shelves on purpose. Whether it was because he wanted an excuse for you to ask for his help, or because he forgot that you weren't six feet tall as well, or because he was a menace you didn't know. But he was consistently leaving important things out of your reach.
Which leads into your current predicament. You were standing on the counter as you grab your favorite mug that he had put away in the most unreachable spot ever in your eyes at least.
"Y/n l/n! What are you doing?!" Jin screeches when he walks into the kitchen. You jump and nearly slip right then. Jin rushes forward and places his hands on your hips to steady you.
âIâm fine Jin. I just had to grab something and Iâm not tall like you.â You explain with a shrug of your shoulders.Â
âYou could have asked me for help! Youâre gonna fall and hurt yourself.â He practically yells. You knew if his hands werenât already cemented to your hips, they would be flapping around as he spoke.Â
âI told you that Iâm fine. Iâve done this so many times before and nothing has ever happened.â You tell him. You were glad that he couldnât see your face right now as you rolled your eyes.Â
âWhat do you mean youâve done this before? While Iâve been here? While weâve been together? Do you not trust me to get it for you?â His hands leave you and you know that they are moving in the air to emphasize his point even if you canât see him at the moment. You sigh and slowly turn around.Â
âI trust you. Sometimes youâre just not here and I need something thatâs out of reach or I donât want to bother you because youâre busy. If it bothers you so much, Iâll find some way to avoid it. Maybe we can put things lower if itâs something I need, yeah?â You ask softly. Reaching forward and gently placing your hands on his chest.Â
This seems to placate the man in front of you. He huffs and nods. âYeah. Okay. We can rearrange some things and Iâm getting you a step stool.â He turns on his heel and goes towards his computer room.Â
âI donât need a step stool!â You cry out. Quickly moving to follow him and hopefully stopping the purchase.
I keep dropping off the face of the earth and coming back. My muse is sporadic and my life is crazy. Here's something that I wrote that stemmed from a request but wasn't quite what the request was. It is angsty and Jin focused. I hope you enjoy and I hope to have a better update schedule. And Happy Pride!!!!
~Bagel
You hated when you made the walk over to Jinâs place after doing something stupid. This time was no different. Your knuckles were throbbing and you could feel the sting on your cheek from the cut that you knew was there. At least the cold wind was helping to make you feel better by combating the heat that was coming from the swelling. You had got into a fight once again at a bar that you frequent. You take a deep breath at the door and hold it while you knock. It takes a few minutes, but the door finally opens to show a tired and exasperated Jin.Â
âWhat happened this time?â Jin asks. His hand reaches out to rest on your shoulder as he ushers you into his home.
âIn my defense, it was to protect someone.â You try to explain your side before even telling him what had happened. âA creep was hitting on a girl and then tried to grope her. I threw a punch and he hit back.â You add. Walking the familiar path to his table before he leaves you to get the first aid kit and some ice packs.Â
âIâm glad it wasnât for nothing, but you canât keep getting into fights. Youâre gonna get really hurt one of these days.â He says as he sits down. Handing you one ice pack for you to press to the forming bruise on your face while he grabs your hand to begin cleaning the cuts. You hiss as the alcohol hits your skin. Your hand flinches back from the sharp pain.Â
âI know. Iâm sorry.â
âStop saying sorry and just take care of yourself.â He says. Not even looking up from your hand as he speaks.
âI do. It just doesnât seem like it sometimes.â You try to defend yourself but just feel small when he finally looks at your face. The gaze he points your way heavy and weighs on your chest.
âI canât always be here and there will be a time where I canât take care of you.â He says. âYou need to start caring for yourself like you deserve.âÂ
His words cut deeper than you thought they could. The tears welling up in your eyes before you could stop them. They sting as they fall and blur your vision. You just see Jinâs eyes widen and his hands move up to cup your face before your push him away and move to stand up.Â
âI need to go.â You quickly say. âIâm sorry to bother you.â The ice pack against your face is thrown on the table while you try to make your escape. You reach out with a shaky hand to fumble with the doorknob after throwing your coat on and sliding on your shoes.
âDonât go. Sit back down. I havenât looked at your face yet.â Jin pleads behind you. You shake your head and leave the apartment as abruptly as you entered it. Leaving Jin alone to dwell on his words and question himself of what went wrong.
Jungkook is your own personal weighted blanket. His favorite cuddling position is on top of you with his head on your chest and arms around your waist. Chills will run down his spine when you decide to play with his hair. Its his own personal heaven to be wrapped in your arms and perfume.
Yoongi isn't big on cuddling. But he will never say no. His favorite is sitting next to each other, your head on his shoulder and hand in his. Maybe a leg thrown over his lap as you watch a movie together. He'll be the first to pull a blanket over the two of you.
Namjoon loves you in his lap. Your legs in his lap and head under his chin. One hand is around your waist as he reads or works on something and you do your thing. His fingers drumming beats against your side or moving up and down your skin. He loves you close and just wants to hold you.
Jimin loves to hold you on his chest. While Jungkook loves laying on you, Jimin wants you to lay on him. He wants your head on his chest and leg over his hip. He is shameless enough to physically move you so that you are on top of him if you aren't already. He just wants to hold you close to him always.
Hoseok loves when you put your head in his lap. He loves to play with your hair. Run his fingers through the strands, maybe braid it if you let him. He will brush it back from your face so he can place a kiss to your temple. He honestly spends more time focusing on you and your features than the show that you had put on for you two to watch together.
Taehyung is not happy unless you are completely tangled up in each other as you cuddle. He wants to be completely engulfed in the very essence that makes up you when you're in each others arms. He'll make your legs tangled together, bring you flush to him, hands playing with yours. He's also one to bury his head in your hair just to smell your shampoo and to fully cement that you're there with him.
Jin is similar to Yoongi. He likes you held to his side. His arm will almost always be around your waist or shoulders. His head will lean against yours and he will pull both legs into his lap. He also loves when you sit between your legs and let him play with your hair. Let him brush it and braid it. He will put it in crazy styles and ponytails, but he will always take the time to take it out and brush out the tangles that he caused from the styles.
hi!! i have a request! could you write a drabble with seokjin mending y/n's favourite plushie (that she got really upset about accidentally ripping), please? thank you!! đ
Sorry for the long wait. But it is here and I hope you like it. I totally took the chance to make it into a How to Mend a Broken Spirit drabble.
This is a perfect chance to write more for HTMaBS. I know I showed a bit of their relationship in the last installment but I really want to show more and this is the perfect request for it. I hope you enjoy and thank you for the request!! ~Bagel

You were devastated when you heard the telltale sound of fabric ripping. You had your favorite plushie in your hand and now the arm was hanging by a thread. Struggling to keep attached to the body that was now falling towards the ground.
You immediately burst into tears. This fox plush was your favorite. You had gotten it at the agency as a welcome gift after being rescued. It was one of the first things that you could call your own after getting out of the bad situation that was your first home. It was soft and weighted and was a source of comfort for so long and now it was broken and you felt yourself beginning to breakdown.
Thatâs how Jin finds you. Tears rolling down your cheek as you stare at the torn fox.Â
âSweetie, y/n? Whatâs wrong?â He asks carefully. Your head snaps up and you look straight to the voice. Gathering up the plush and pushing it against Jinâs chest when you see him standing behind you.Â
âFix it. Fix it please.â You frantically tell him.
Jinâs eyes widen as he scrambles to grab the plush now pressed against him. Once you were sure he had a hold on the toy, you let go and take a step back.
âPlease.â You choke out. His heart breaks at how sad you were and the wolf nods in agreement.Â
âOkay. Iâll fix him okay?â He offers up a smile that you tearfully reciprocate. The tightness loosening when he sees you smile and the tears beginning to slow at his agreement. He gestures with his head for you to follow him. Your hand reaches out to grab his shirt as he walks towards the living room where the needles and thread were. As if you were afraid that he would run off or disappear. He guides you to sit down in the chair beside where he would work before looking through the thread that they had quickly for similar colors. Choosing a few that were pretty good matches at a quick glance before he sits. Putting the few spools down on the table near you two before he examines them closer. He startles a bit when your hand darts out to choose one.Â
âThat one.â You say quietly. His own heightened hearing is barely able to pick up on your words. He nods and reaches over for the thread you had chosen.Â
Silence falls over the two of you as he works. The wolf wants to break it somehow but he was scared of scaring you off by being too loud. So he suffers in silence and concentrates on the task at hand. He feels more than hears as you begin to hover closer to him. The heat radiating from your body hits his side as you look at what was happening. He steals a quick side glance at you before he speaks. Softly explaining what he was doing so you understood his process. Telling you step by step how he was reattaching the arm down to the stitch he was using and how it should be nearly invisible when he was done.
âAnd there.â He says a bit too loudly. You startle and jump back at the sudden increase in volume. âSorry. Here.â He says. Grimacing as he turns in his chair to hand the stuffed animal off to you.Â
You freeze for a second and stare at his hands. Slowly reaching out to grab the toy and bringing it to your chest. You very nearly launch yourself at him and pull him into a hug.Â
âThank you Jin.â You say softly. The wolf smiles widely and wraps his arms around you. He was happy that you werenât looking at him at the moment. He could feel his ears burning. Squeezing you gently as he says youâre welcome. Your giggle sounds in his ears as you tighten your hold. You linger for a moment longer before pulling away. Youâre smiling wide and rushing out of the room to go show Yoongi and Jimin Jinâs mending job on the stuffed fennec fox. The eldest taking a few deep breaths to calm his pounding heart before he cleans up his mess and begins to put everything away.
Merry Christmas! This was written in very little time and is not proof read. It might not make any sense. But I hope you enjoy this lovelys!! ~Bagel
Yoongi keeps things lowkey. He keeps you in the apartment and gives you gifts throughout the day by leaving them in places you would find them. You leave to go to the bathroom and a gift box appears in your seat. You turn away to grab something from the cupboard and when you turn back something's waiting on the counter. He insists on cooking for the two of you though. While you're getting ready for bed at the end of the day I think is when he would give you that last big present from him. The only one that he doesn't run away from as you open it and waits to see your reaction. His cheeks turning red as he studies whether you like the thing or not.
Seokjin makes things a huge production. He's the one to have a checklist of things he wants to do. Making the two of you bake cookies, he's sitting you down to watch It's a Wonderful Life and A Christmas Carol, he's making you go out and play in the snow if there's any. He has a specific time that you two eat dinner and presents are right after. He has bought you both matching sweaters to wear for the entire day.
Hoseok pulls you into the living room to watch Christmas movies all day. He shares all of his favorites and begs to see yours. Similar to Jin, he has matching sweaters for you. Pulling you into his lap as the movies play and talking through them. He's pointing out different details that he loves in the different movies. Making snacks and grabbing drinks when they are needed.
Jimin has planned everything for weeks. Making sure the decorations were just right, that he gave you his presents to you in the right order. He's been buying things through the entire year and hiding them away to give them to you during this holiday. I feel too that he would be one of those boyfriends to make a little advent calendar for you of small things that you love to open leading up to Christmas day.
Namjoon treats it very similar to any other day. I feel he would very much match whatever your energy is when it comes to the holiday. If you've been counting down the days, he's there next to you to smiling at your excitement. If you haven't said anything, he's sitting back and just thankful that he's able to spend the day with you. His presents would be thoughtful and homemade. Like he made you a mixtape of songs that symbolize different moments throughout the year. Or he's made a photobook of your favorite art pieces.
Jungkook looks forward to making new traditions with you. He's setting up the Switch for the 'annual Mario Kart competition' as he calls it. He's ordering take out for the two of you as you binge through some drama that you haven't watched yet. He's made a scavenger hunt throughout his apartment for your big present from him. I also see him wrapping it in a way to make it as difficult as possible to get to the actual gift.
Taehyung insists that you visit family. Whether it's his or yours, he's not going to take no as an answer. He's buying the ticket to fly you home. He's also the one to beg to go with you if he hasn't met them yet. He's playing with your younger siblings and cousins as you catch up with your parents. He's happily listening to the stories your grandparents are telling him of when you're busy elsewhere. He's also the one to ask your parents to show him baby photos. Teasing you at the end of the day when it's just the two of you about the new information he's learned.
I know I've established that How to Mend a Broken Spirit Mc likes to join Yoongi in his office late at night when they are having troubles falling asleep but I absolutely imagine that he's set up a little desk for them to use after this has happened a few times. It has their art supplies that they've both taken/been given by Yoongi and that has been bought for them.
And even with their own dedicated space in the office and area to keep themselves entertained in case they get bored, more often than not Mc will move their chair so that they're sitting right next to Yoongi or even ends up in his lap to cuddle once they are fully comfortable with him.
I also imagine that they are so intensely cuddly. Like they've been keeping everyone at an arms length because of trauma but they'll be the first to jump into someone's arms or crawl into someone's lap just to be close. Jimin knows this far too well after they imprinted and bonded at the shelter. Getting moved into this new environment has absolutely exasperated mc's need for physical touch and they seek out Jimin a lot. This has made the others in the pack so jealous and pouty. Especially the two younger ones.
In the early days, Taehyung and Jungkook would just stare wistfully at Mc and Jimin holding each other on the couch as they clung onto each other or the older hybrids. Hoseok can't even count the number of times that Taehyung whined to him that he wished that Mc was just a bit more comfortable and more willing to come to them for affection and cuddles.
A/N: I don't know where this came from but I got the idea and needed to write it down. This is a bit angsty but I have feelings about this. This is also vague enough that you could envision any of the members in the place of the romantic interest. I have no idea the time line for anything to do with enlistment and training and all of that. So please don't judge me about that. Not edited. Hope you enjoy. ~Bagel

Summary: The night before your boyfriend leaves for enlistment.
You lay in bed. Your head resting on his chest and listening to his heartbeat. What once was a comforting rhythm that lulled you to sleep countless nights before was now just a consistent reminder that he would be gone by tomorrow. You shift once again as you try to get impossibly close to your lover. His own arm tightening around you as he softly huffs. His hand moving up to rest on the bare skin of your ribs and you feel soft pressure on the crown of your head as he presses a kiss to your hair.
"It's late love. Did I not tire you enough?" He asks. The smirk on his face evident in his voice even if you don't look up at him. Your cheeks heat up and you hide your face into his chest.
"No. I just don't want tomorrow to come." You admit to him in the darkness. The moonlight barely filters through the windows and curtains to land on your bodies. You feel more than hear the soft sigh that leaves him.
"I know. I don't want to leave either but I have to." He begins. His fingers start to trace patterns on your skin as he speaks. "But I will be back. I'll have leave, I'll call and text you whenever I can. It's only a year and a half and then I'll be right back here with you." His other hand reaches down and gently pulls your chin up to look at him. The tears you didn't know that were forming blur your vision as you're forced to look up at him.
His hand reaches up and cups your cheek. Brushing away the tears that escape. "I know, but I'm not ready to say goodbye to you. I don't care how temporary it is, it still hurts to see you leave." You say softly. You felt selfish. You felt bad for telling him this and guilting him about something out of his control but you can't hide your feelings from him. Not with how long you've been together and how you've promised to each other to be as honest as possible.
"I don't want to say goodbye either love." He tells you. This moment was intimate and quiet. The silence stretching around the both of you as you both just stare at each other. You see the hurt and sadness in his eyes even if he tries to keep a brave face for you.
"I love you." You tell him after several moments of silence. Your hand reaches up and traces his features. Committing everything you can to memory and just soaking in these last few moments of togetherness before sleep takes over you both and the inevitable happens. His enlistment ceremony and then there would be at least a few months before you could see him again as he goes through basic training.
"I love you too." He says back. You lean up to press your lips against his softly. You settle back to laying on him. Resting your head to hear that heartbeat again. This time you can't fight back sleep from overtaking you anymore. A soft hum was the last thing you heard before you fell asleep.
