“One, two three!” Nia and Taehyung both swung their arms up, pulling Jisung up off the ground.  He giggled.

“Again!”

“Aish…my arm is getting tired, Jisungie.” Taehyung groaned.

The little boy tugged on his arm. “Pleeaasseee?”

“Ok, fine.”

Nia laughed as Taehyung prepared himself.

“Ok, one, two, three!”

“Fancy running into you again,” Moon murmured after walking straight into Hobi in the ramen aisle.

“Yeah, I’m starting to think this isn’t a coincidence.  What is this, the third time?”

“This week or ever?”

“Touché.”

“Want to grab lunch?”

Hobi glanced at his watch. “Sure.  I’ve got time.”

Twenty minutes later, they were seated at what had now became the only place they ever ate.

“Did you do anything interesting lately?” Hobi asked.

“Um, not much.  Mostly just shoot after shoot,” she laughed.

“Must be exhausting.  Then again, I hate getting my picture taken, so I wouldn’t enjoy it.”

Moon smiled. “Sometimes I hate it too.  But it’s worth it on the days I enjoy it.  Do you enjoy your job?”

Hobi shrugged. “Some days.  Other times, it feels like a chore.  I love talking to people, but business meetings can be awfully boring.”

“I understand,” Moon laughed.

“Yoongi keeps trying to get me to go out with a few of his new friends, but it’s hard.  And Taehyung is one of them, so that makes things…very awkward sometimes.”

“Ah, I see.  It’s still uncomfortable, huh?”

Hobi nodded. “Not as bad as it used to be, though.  I think I’m getting over her now.  I’ve come to accept that she wasn’t the one for me.  Besides, someone else has begun to catch my eye.  Maybe she can help me get over Nia.”

“Oh, really?  Who is it?”

“I won’t tell you!  How do I trust you won’t go tell her?”

Moon laughed. “Ok, ok, you’re right.  Don’t tell me if you want it to stay a secret.”

“What about you?  Anyone you like?”

“Maybe.  I won’t tell you, though.” She smirked.

“Ah, you’re just pulling my leg now!”

“Am I?  I suppose maybe I am.” She snickered.

“You’re so mean to me.”

“Yes, that’s something I do to everyone.  Call it…me being friendly.”

“Oh, ok.” Hobi nodded before laughing. “We’re ridiculous.”

“Yes, we definitely are.”

After lunch, Moon and Hobi decided to go for a walk in the park.  They chatted for a while before Hobi stopped short.  Moon looked up.  Nia and Taehyung were standing in front of them, a little boy holding one of each of their hands.  Hobi looked down at the kid.

“Is he yours?” He asked without thinking.

“Not yet.  He might be soon.” Taehyung replied.

“Oh.” Hobi nodded.

“Are you guys on a date?” Nia asked.

“Yup.”

Moon gave him an odd look, but he ignored it.

“We’ll go now.  Jisung is probably getting hungry.” Taehyung dragged the two of them off before the little boy could protest.

“We’re on a date?” Moon laughed.

“Guess so,” Hobi joined in laughing. “You know, I thought I’d be jealous, but they’re cute together.” He commented, watching as they swung Jisung into the air.
