"Ahhh!" I cheered when we arrived at the unique shaped library* "Baby, this place looks even cooler in person. Thank you" I leaned over peck his lips

"I'm glad I saved it for last, your entire face just lit up like someone cut a halogen lamp on" he smiled, grabbing my hand "Inside or outside first?" Yoongi asked

"Mm outside then inside" He adjusted his hat and put a mask over his face which prompted me to cover my face as well. So far we had not been spotted or approached and I wanted to keep it that way because our date was going so well.

We walked leisurely around the entirety of the building, taking in the intricate and meticulous details, appreciating the creativity of the shape and the time it took to bring what was once a complex sketch to life. We kept hold of each other's hands the whole time we strolled around the structure with light conversation.

We walked in to see it was filled with people but it did not feel crowded at all. We wandered around taking in the splendor of the inside as well, it really was a beautiful building. The murals that covered the walls were so nice and seemed to weave several stories together with bright, colorful characters and landscapes.

"Wow, this place is incredible. Was this recently built?" I asked, looking upwards as the tall ceilings

"Uh, about ten years, give or take a year, it was in the process of being built when I was leaving for Seoul"

"Is this your first time here?"

"Not my first time but it's been a long while since I've been able to come and really enjoy it so it feels like my first time again. Did you have a good time today, love?"

"I'm having a wonderful time Yoongi" I assured him with a smile behind my mask "And you were totally right about the patbingsu," I made the OK gesture with my fingers "it was superb"

"Yay!" he quietly cheered, throwing our hands up. We spent almost two hours at the library where he allowed me to read to him and we cuddled in a corner of one of the many reading rooms.

We spent the whole morning out and about and while I was having fun with my soulmate I was sleepy, "Are you ready to go?"

"Yeah, sorry but I'm two seconds from falling asleep right now"

"Don't apologize, let's get going." We left the library and drove back to Taehyung's aunt's house. I fell asleep on the ride and woke up to Tae trying to lift me out of the passenger seat of the car.

"Tae? It's okay I can walk babe" I yawned and stretched my legs. He backed up so I could get out and close the door

"How was your date?" he asked, leading us inside

"Amazing. I wish I could have stayed out later but I am beyond tired"

"Are you feeling okay? Do you need medicine?"

"No, no, my period started this morning and it's just draining all my energy sooner but I'm fine. Once I sleep for a little while I'll be good as new"

"Aww pooh" he frowned then pulled me in for a hug "Can I lay with you, I'm not sleepy but I just want to to cuddle"

"Of course" I stopped to say hi to his family again "It smells really good in here" I hummed, taking a big whiff of the various aromas filling the home.

"Thank you, are you two hungry?" his aunt asked while chopping up some vegetables "Dinner's not ready yet but I fixed a snack for the kids not long ago and there are leftovers"

"I'm too sleepy to eat right now so I'll wait for dinner to be done. Do you mind if I take a nap?"

"Not at all, Taehyung-ah take her to the room to lay down"

"Yes ma'am" he grabbed my waist and guided me. Once in the room I took off my outside clothes and put on one of Hobi's hoodies I swiped from him and a pair of black leggings. I quickly dived in the bed, snuggling beneath the warm blanket "Put your bonnet on"

"Mm" I grunted, sitting up and snatched it from him and put it on haphazardly

"I don't care about your attitude" he said, kneeling in front of me to fix the satin covering over my hair, tucking in the escaped strands "There, my beautiful popcorn" he teased, patting my hair turning my scowl into a half-smile and snort.

I settled back into the bed and he settled behind, pulling me close and placing his large hand on my stomach. He rubbed my belly in silence for a few minutes, in that short time I was near sleep when started to speak out loud

"So no baby huh?" he questioned. I could feel his warm breath behind my ear

"No...are you upset?"

"Of course not. I was hopeful but the timing isn't right so I guess it's a good thing you're not pregnant right now." The rubbing continued, lulling me into comfort and relaxation.

"I agree. We have time before we start expanding our family"

"I know and I can wait" it was quiet between us again for a moment "How many do you want?"

"Hmm, I don't know. Never even thought about having kids until I met you all. How many do you want?" I replied in whisper

"As many as you want to give us" I chuckled

"What if I only want to have one baby?"

"Then I'll be more than happy with our one child and he or she will be the most spoiled child in the history of people" he kissed my cheek eliciting a smile from me. I don't remember responding to him because I was already sleeping.

When I woke up again I was alone in the comfortable bed tucked in. I blinked several times to clear my vision and yawned. The sun was still out but it sat much lower in the sky than before my nap. I pushed the blanket back and sat up with a stretch. I felt so much better but the rumbling in my stomach didn't let me fully enjoy the refreshing feeling of being rested. Slipping off the bed, I snatched my bonnet off and left the room to find a familiar face. When I arrived in the kitchen I saw Taehyung's aunt and one of her son's sitting at the table playing cards.

"Hey sleepyhead" she greeted me without looking up from her hand

"Hi auntie, how long was I out for?"

"About four hours, there's a sandwich Yoongi made for you in the fridge. He said you might be hungry when you woke up"

"Ooh yes" I bounced to the cooling appliance to find the meal left for me "Thank you. Where are those two at?"

"I think Yoongi is working on some music and Tae is playing outside with his cousin" I nodded and sat across from them to eat. I watched them play while devouring my sandwich, occasionally making small talk so we could get to know each other better.

"Ha! I won mom" the boy cheered

"Finally" she teased "Good game" they shook hands as if they were strangers.

"Noona, do you want to come outside and play with us?" the boy asked, ready to go

"Maybe later, I'm still waking up" I admit and he nods. We bump fist and he takes off out the door after getting a jacket.

"So how's everything going so far, having seven soulmates sounds exhausting" she smiled softly, taking hold of my hand

"Actually it's not," a smile crept across my face. "It takes some getting used to for sure but we help keep each other energized and balanced so it's not bad"

"That is really good to hear, when I was told about them having another soulmate I was worried but I'm really glad you all are doing well. Taehyung and Yoongi could not stop talking about when you were asleep, it's obvious to see they love and adore you" She expressed which caused me to blush

"I love them too, those two have been rooting for us from the beginning, along with Jungkook. I never thought I'd be in a relationship so learning that I have soulmates, seven of them to be exact, was such an overwhelming feeling but now that I'm with them I don't know how I was navigating life so long without them. We've only been a complete group for a few months now but my old life feels like it was ages ago, I am really happy"

"Awww, y'all are just the cutest"

"Thank you, is uncle home? I haven't seen him yet" she shook her head and stood up

"He's actually visiting his parents, his mom isn't doing well so he'll be taking care of her for a while"

"Ooh okay, is she ill?"

"Old age, her health is finally starting to decline and his dad has mobility issues so he can't do as much as he used to" she shrugged, "We've been trying to get them to move in with us but you know old people are stubborn"

"Hopefully he can convince them. Do you need help with anything?" I asked noticed her pulling out several pre-prepped ingredients "I'm not a great cook but I can follow instructions"

"An extra pair of hands is always nice" Auntie told me what to do and when to do it and an hour later we were calling in the guys to eat.

"Hi my love" Yoongi greeted me with a back hug and a kiss to my cheek

"Hi baby" I noticed the book tucked under his arm "Did you enjoy reading?"

"I did, it was a recommendation from Namjoon"

"Alright, everyone go get washed up for dinner and you two," she pointed at her children "set the table when you're clean"

"Yes mama" they replied and ran off.

"Auntie, we will take care of the dishes after dinner" Taehyung told her.

We all sat down at the dining table and dug in. Just like Yoongi's parents, Tae's family were great cooks as well. If I kept eating like this I was sure to gain about ten kilograms (20 pounds) and also just like at Yoongi's parent's house I would not hold back. I made sure to taste everything and was not disappointed. Apparently, the meal was so good I danced again throughout dinner but they have no proof.

After dinner we all played some games and Taehyung made his little cousins do norebang with him. At first they were against it, saying it's not fair for him to play because he's a professional singer but after him purposely goofily singing two songs they joined him. Even Yoongi graced us with a song then I was peer pressured into a performance as well. It was really fun. I loved seeing this side of my men, when they were simply being people who enjoyed things.

It was late when we all decided to go to bed, considering we were driving home tomorrow we needed to get our rest. Although the time was short I really loved meeting their families, they were welcoming and nice which dissolved my nervousness. I'm so grateful for their kindness and hospitality and hoped that the rest of my new family would extend the same courtesy to me. Two down and five more to go, well four if you count the brief introduction with Seokjin's parents.

*When I was looking up landmarks and popular attractions in Daegu I saw concept photos of the Daegu Public Library. I was not able to confirm if the structure was ever built but I liked the look of it and decided in my story's timeline it does exist.

Here is the concept photo I saw on Google.
