Bonded: A Min Yoongi x OC Soulmate AU

13

"Ok it's official. I have a girl crush on you and that's that. You're amazing," Sehee says, making Crystal laugh.

"You'd better not let JK hear you say that. You know how crazy he is when it comes to you. My jaw still hurts from time to time," Tae teases, rubbing his jaw.

"Don't do him like that! He couldn't control himself at first. You know how reserved he is," Sehee yells, punching him in the arm.

"Ow, see you're both just violent. If JK was like that at first, imagine what Yoongi hyung's going to be like so be mindful of what you say," Tae warns her.

"You're right. I don't need him planning how to make my death look like an accident. The scary thing about it is that he'd probably get away with it," she replies seriously, her voice dropping to a whisper with the last sentence.

"Um, care to fill me in? JK was uncontrollably violent at first? And he punched you in the face over Sehee?" Crystal asks, looking between the two.

"Long story short, JK keeps his emotions bottled up so whenever he'd suspect someone was too close for comfort, he lashed out violently. He'd punch walls, windows, whatever really. It was like he was a different person. Tae and I were childhood friends and classmates, so naturally I was more comfortable with him when I got here. He was a familiar face and JK barely talked to me at the time so I spent a lot of time with Tae. JK, blinded by the bond, got super jealous and thought Tae was trying to take me away from him—which resulted in him punching Tae after I fell asleep in his room by mistake," Sehee explains.

"Wow," Crystal responds, still processing what she'd heard.

"When you think about it, JK was a real life tsundere. He started off cold because he didn't know how to talk to you combined with the fact that he never wanted a soulmate and then he gradually became whipped. He's not violent anymore but he has his ways of making it known that you're together. Hopefully, since Yoongi hyung is older and more arguably more mature, you two will skip that phase. Sehee used to get jealous so easily," he snickers, dodging another punch from the girl.

"Shut up! I couldn't help it. It just took over me, and you know that bitch was doing it on purpose," Sehee exclaims, rolling her eyes.

"I'm so not looking forward to this," Crystal groans, burying her face in her hands.

"Look, it's not a walk in the park but I promise it's worth it in the end. You two are destined for each other and once you iron out the kinks, you have someone that will love you for life—whether it be romantic or platonic," Sehee says, patting her back.

"Look, we heard that you two got off on the wrong foot, so you probably don't like hyung a lot right now and I don't blame you. What he did was wrong but as someone that has known him for a long time, I truly believe he said that out of anger and because of that stuff Mr. Gwan was saying. I can look at him and tell he regrets it. I'm not telling you to forgive him but if you give him a chance, I don't think he'll disappoint you again," Tae vouches.

"You know what? Forgiving him now may be the easiest thing to do but I'm just going to be real with you. Im petty as fuck and I hold grudges way longer than I should. I'm also known for not taking the easy way out of things either. I'm a difficult person to deal with once I've been wronged or disrespected in any way. That's just me. I'm not saying it's the best way to be. I know I need to work on it, but I'm not there yet and I probably won't be for a while. If he wants to be anything more than cordial, I need an apology and I need to see some actions behind those words. I will fight this bond tooth and nail before I let that blow over," she replies.

"I admire you so much for that. They don't make em like you no more Crystal. I can tell. You don't see it right now but you're perfect for Suga," Sehee smiles, patting her knee.

" I thought he said they apologized," Tae replies, confused.

"No, Mr. Misinformation "apologized" on behalf of both of them. Fakest thing I've ever heard in my life and someone who's truly sorry apologizes for themselves. I need a personal apology, not one from some misogynistic lawyer," she says, pursing her lips with distaste.

"Well shit...I respect it," he says after a moment of silence.

She'd made a good point. Suga should have apologized himself, for the comments he'd made about her and for not speaking up about the contract situation.

✨✨✨✨✨✨✨

Everyone was up now, bustling through the living room and kitchen. Crystal kept her spot on the floor next to Sehee, hugging a large pillow to her chest. Yoongi was at the table drinking coffee and eating soup, scrolling on his phone.

"I'm glad to see you two getting along," JK smiles, throwing his arm over Sehee's shoulder.

"Oh yeah Crystal's a boss. I want to be like her when I grow up," she says, making him and Joon laugh.

"You are silly," Crystal shakes her head, an amused smile on her face as she focuses on the weather report on the TV.

"If she starts talking your ear off, feel free to tell her to hush," Jimin says, starting w round of bickering between the two.

There's a knock at the door and Yoongi answers it, greeting Nurse Choi.

"Good morning. You two ready?" she asks and Crystal sets the pillow to the side and stands up, making her way over to them.

Yoongi tries not to stare, but fails, the way her body looked in a simple crop top and joggers blowing his mind.

Sehee catches his eye and raises her eyebrows suggestively, making him roll his eyes before following Crystal and Nurse Choi down the hall.

He hears their laughter as he enters his room and shuts the door behind him. They were going to give him shit forever.

They do their normal checkup and Nurse Choi determines that everything looks good for the two, but reiterates the need for skin to skin. She also determined that they could start slowly re-introducing some solid foods in their diets.

"Nurse Choi, I have a question. I saw that the weather is bad the rest of the week so I really want to go and get my clothes today. My house is about 20 minutes out but I have to make some stops along the way. It'll probably take me about an hour and 30 minutes to get everything done. Is it okay for us to be apart for that long if we get a lot of skin contact beforehand?" Crystal asks.

"Hmm, I don't recommend that much time and distance apart this early in the bond. We don't know how you'll react and the last thing you want to do is be in two different places if you start to get sick. Everything is done gradually, dear," she replies.

Crystal nods, sighing internally, and looks over at Yoongi.

"Well, I suppose you should get ready to meet my family. I'm on my last change of clothes and we should go today while the weather is decent," she says.

"I'll call a car. Our drivers usually take about 20 minutes to get here. I'll be ready by then," he says.

She nods and grabs her shoes before leaving the room with Nurse Choi.

Yoongi's shoulders slumped and he started to get nervous. He knew he had to make a good impression.
