You're now sitting in the airplane seat with headphones plugged into the back of the seat in front of you as you watch a movie. This is the second and last flight to get home. You already had a short layover at the airport earlier.

You're leaning back in the chair as you think about the boys.

You're hoping that they're safely practicing in a studio or somewhere with a lot of security measures in place.

You wonder how they're all handling this situation.

I just hope no one is freaking out right now.

I know Namjoon is probably fine and so is Yoongi. Seokjin is probably worried but holding a strong front to not worry the other members. Jimin and Jungkook are probably scared. Taehyung is probably doing the same as Seokjin.

But Hoseok? I don't know.

You bite onto your lower lip and pause the movie playing in front of you to glance out of the window in the airplane.

The sky is a dark blue, almost black right now. You can barely see any clouds except when they're directly near the plane. You can't see any light outside.

Your mind immediately goes to Blue Side and the new version that Hoseok is releasing.

You smile to yourself and decide to check their Twitter to see if he's released it yet.

As you wait for the app to load, you glance around at the other passengers near you who are wearing their eye masks. They're all fast asleep with the exception of you and a man a little further in front of you on the plane. He has his laptop on his tray table and he's hunched over working on it.

Good to know I'm not the only one who's stressed out on this flight.

You let out a soft sigh before looking back down at your phone.

The app finally finished loading.

You immediately go to their profile and see that Hoseok posted the link a few hours ago. You smile to yourself as you scroll through the replies on the tweet.

As you scroll past, you see a lot of people typing in all caps, a lot of emojis, and a lot of people saying 'thank you.'

This causes you to smile as you think about how proud you are.

You saw how nervous Hoseok was when he showed you the updated song. You can only imagine how happy Hoseok was when he saw all of the positive feedback earlier.

Closing out of the app, you go into your messages and decide to send an iMessage to Hoseok.

Y/N: Hi baby. I'm on the flight and just saw that you posted the Blue Side version you played for me the other day. Everyone seems to love it as much as I do. I'm very proud of you. I'll let you know when the plane lands (should be in about an hour)

You send the message before setting your phone back down on your lap and continue to play the movie in front of you. As you stare at the screen, you find yourself relieved that you chose a comedy movie to watch rather than something that required you to actually pay attention.

Sighing, you lean further back in your seat and glance in the direction of the guy who also had his light on.

He finally shut off his light, meaning you should probably do the same for the sake of the other passengers.

You let out a soft sigh and glance at the amount of time you have left on the flight before deciding to rest your eyes for a bit.

*-> *-> *-> *-> *-> *-> *-> *-> *-> *-> *-> *-> *->

The boys are now breathing heavily as they walk out of the studio. Most of them have trails of sweat visible on their shirts.

Jungkook uses the back of his hand to wipe away the sweat on his forehead. Jimin grabs a towel and begins gently pressing it against his skin to rid himself of the sweat on his body. Yoongi is now sitting on the couch, arm covering his face as he breathes heavily. Namjoon is glancing at the other members as a staff member hands him a towel. Taehyung is sitting next to Yoongi, trying to steady his breathing. Seokjin is standing with Hoseok, asking about one of the moves to make sure he's doing it right.

"Yeah, you got it." Hoseok states. "You're doing so well, hyung." He says as he smiles over at him. Seokjin gives a thumbs up before sitting down on the chair by Namjoon.

As Hoseok sits on the chair, he grabs his phone and sees a notification from you.

His eyes light up and he smiles widely as he stares down at it and reads your text message.

"Yo, bro, who's got you smiling like that?" Jungkook teases as he looks over at Hoseok, mimicking a TikTok audio. This causes the other members to laugh and shake their heads.

"God, you're so obsessed with that app." Yoongi states. Jungkook lets out a soft laugh before looking back at Hoseok. Taehyung and Jimin look over at Yoongi when Yoongi says this.

"What can we say? The three of us are always looking around on that app." Jimin responds.

"Jungkook has a point though... why are you smiling so much?" Taehyung asks curiously before his eyes light up. "Wait... did you finally hear from Y/N?" Hoseok nods.

"What did she say? How is she? Did she get there safely?" Jimin immediately starts questioning.

"Can we talk to her?" Jungkook asks while raising his eyebrows. Namjoon looks over at the younger members that are pestering Hoseok. He immediately shakes his head.

"Guys, Hoseok gets to talk to Y/N first. He has boyfriend priority." He responds. Hoseok lets out a soft laugh, eyes squinting as he smiles widely.

"That's right, I'm the boyfriend so I get to bug her first." The younger members let out a soft sigh before nodding their heads.

Hoseok immediately begins typing out a response to you.

Hoseok: Thank you, beautiful. I hope you're having a safe flight.

He quickly opens his camera app and takes a picture of himself making a finger heart.

The other members merely stare at the man while he takes the selfie.

Jin smiles proudly, nodding his head as he sees this. Namjoon merely laughs before shaking his head and looking back at his phone.

"You should do a different angle, Hoseok-ah." Yoongi advises.

Taehyung, Jimin, and Jungkook immediately pull their phones out and make fun of the way Hoseok looked while taking the selfie.

"Hey! Make fun all you want but Y/N likes when I do that." Hoseok responds while pointing his finger over at the maknae line.

The maknaes laugh and shake their heads while continuing to mock him.

Hoseok sends the picture before sliding his phone into his pocket. He comes over to the maknae line and starts joining in on the joke to take the fun out of it for the other members. Once the other members slowly stop doing it, Hoseok messes up their hair before leaning down next to them.

"Besides, since I can pull the boyfriend card, I could always tell Y/N to talk to you three last." Hoseok says, causing their eyes to widen as they shake their heads.

"No! We want to make sure she's okay too!" Jimin immediately protests.

"Then you might wanna start kissing Hoseok's ass right about now." Namjoon says while staring down at his phone. He appeared to have tuned out their conversation but was still listening.

Hoseok lets out a loud laugh when he says this before nodding his head.

"You three are lucky you're catching onto these dance routines quickly. If you weren't and you made fun of me sending Y/N stuff like that, I definitely would make you all start kissing up to me." Hoseok says before placing one hand on Jungkook's face and the other on Jimin's. He pinches their cheeks before laughing and making his way back to where he was before.

He checks the time that you sent your message and nods his head, making a mental note on what time he can expect you to let him know your plane safely landed.

"So, did she mention anything about Blue Side?" Yoongi questions. Hoseok nods.

"She loved it and said she saw a lot of positive feedback on it already. I'm so glad everyone likes it so far."

"Well, why wouldn't they?" Jin speaks up. "That was my favorite song on Hope World." He states.

Hoseok smiles when Jin says this.

"Thanks, hyung." Hoseok says as he rushes over to him, hugging him from behind as Jin lets out a soft laugh.

"It's so nice knowing that Y/N can update us on what ARMY thinks." Hoseok says before shrugging his shoulders. "We can always use Namjoon's undercover Twitter to see what they think and Jungkook's secret TikTok account but we can only check so many different fan accounts. At least Y/N can let us know even more feedback."

The boys nod.

"It really is nice. It's also nice how we show her our ideas and get real-time feedback." Namjoon states. "Plus, I don't know how much longer we can continue using my undercover Twitter... a few ARMY started getting suspicious of me a few days ago."

"Really?"

"Yeah, they thought I was Jungkook." He says while laughing. "So I could at least be truthful and say I'm not Jungkook. They are catching on though." He states.

Hoseok shakes his head.

"Honestly, I'm surprised we didn't get caught sooner." Hoseok responds. "The amount of theories about our music videos alone shows how smart they are. It's amazing that you've managed to keep that Twitter up for so long."

"I know, every time I get a new follower, I get nervous. I'm just glad that my account only has two hundred followers."

All of the members nod their heads before looking over at Jungkook.

"I'm just glad that I don't have to worry about TikTok followers because I just post videos of us that are already public and everyone just assumes I'm a fan account who edits videos."

"I know. No one has ever caught onto Jungkook because he adds those cute female anime songs to the video edits." Taehyung suddenly speaks up, laughing.

Everyone lets out a soft laugh before nodding their heads.

"Definitely not an editing style that anyone would think Jungkook would use." Everyone laughs.

"And that's why I did that intentionally." Jungkook says while laughing and pointing at the other members. The other members nod.

All of a sudden, Hoseok's phone goes off.

His eyes widen and he immediately answers his phone, eyes lighting up as he sees your picture on his phone.

"Y/N! Did you land?"

"Yep! Just got here. I'm waiting for Jisoo to get here." You state.

"Sweet. How was the flight?"

"Long but not too bad." You say on the other side of the line. He hears you sighing on your end of the line and he softly smiles.

"Are you free to FaceTime?" Hoseok questions. Namjoon's ears perk up and he shakes his head.

"Hyung, not if she's still at the airport." Namjoon states.

"Isn't that a bad idea? I'm still in the airport..." You respond immediately, not even knowing that Namjoon was saying the same thing.

"Ah... right, forgot for a second." Hoseok says while scratching the back of his neck. "I forget that I'm J-Hope and not just regular Hoseok sometimes." Namjoon softly grins at this statement. Hoseok can tell he's grinning because he's glad that fame has never even made Hoseok arrogant.

"Yeah, well that's why you have the boys to remind you." You state before letting out a soft laugh. Hoseok smiles widely to himself as he hears this before you speak up again. "I can send you a picture of me though. You sent me one on the plane so I could return the favor if you really miss my cute face that much." You tease. Hoseok laughs before nodding his head.

"Yes please, all of us miss you."

"I miss you all too." You state. "Well, Jisoo's plane just landed so I should probably go find her. I'll have her take a picture of me to send to you, okay?"

"Thanks, baby."

"Any time." You respond. "Put me on speaker really quick before I hang up."

Hoseok furrows his eyebrows before nodding his head. He moves the phone away from his ear and puts you on speaker.

"Alright, you're on speaker." He states, causing all of the other members to look in his direction. Jimin, Jungkook, and Taehyung rush over to the phone. Namjoon and Jin slowly walk over. Yoongi just sits in his seat but sits up straight so he can speak more loudly.

"Hey guys!" You say on the other side of the line. "Just wanted to remind all of you to get some rest and don't overwork yourselves."

"We'll get some rest." Namjoon states.

"And we're doing fine, I won't let anyone overwork themselves." Jin states.

"How are you doing, Y/N?" Yoongi asks.

"I'm good. Pretty tired from the flight but Jisoo's plane just landed." You state. "I have to get going but I miss all of you. Have a great rest of your time travelling. Hopefully, I'll be back on a plane with all of you soon!" you say.

The boys all smile.

"We hope so." Jungkook says.

"We'll keep bugging our manager to make sure of it." Jimin says. You laugh and they all smile at hearing you laugh.

"Thanks, guys." You state before they hear some shuffling. "Oh, I see Jisoo. I have to get going. I'll talk to you guys later!"

"Bye!" the boys say simultaneously.

"I love you." Hoseok says.

There's a small silence on the other line for a second.

What they can't see is that you're smiling when he said that.

"I love you too." You say. "Talk to you soon!" You say before the call ends.

Hoseok stares down at the phone before softly smiling to himself.

"I'm glad she made it safely." He states.

"I know, now you can focus because we just got scheduled for a studio recording." Namjoon states. The boys all nod and start heading towards the exit.

*****
Happy BTS Day! Well, here it's 6/13, I know for other parts of the world it isn't BTS day anymore but still!

I'm in LOVE with Proof. This album definitely reminds you of every single moment in their career that ARMY got to spend with them so far. And to have Yet to Come be the main single, showing us that they're just getting started??? Incredible.

I hope all of you have been able to get the album or stream it somewhere. I know when I went to get the album the day it launched, it sold out an hour after I got it at the location I went to. That's so crazy to think about.

I hope you all are doing well! For everyone who streamed and helped us with meeting the goals while studying for exams, you're a whole other level of incredible. That takes so much work to stream and study.

I purple you
Kim 💜
