House of Cards {Taehyung x Reader}

Chapter 24

Everybody acted like nothing happened the day before which made me uneasy. Taehyung was obviously still grumpy because of the video but the rest of the boys were ignoring it. Luckily today was our day off of filming so we got to do whatever we wanted. Despite the events we all still decided to do something together, so we all agreed to meet up at the beach at noon.
Taehyung and I went to get breakfast at a small diner in town. He seemed a lot happier when it was just me and him. The diner reminded me a lot of IHOP but a lot more tropical. Every once in a while I would have to translate something on the menu to him.
It was nice to have alone time with him. It almost feels like we're a normal couple right now. No cameras, no other members, no fans. Just him and I eating breakfast in Hawaii.
"God it's gonna suck going back to California." My eyes were glued on the view out the window.
"Why's that?"
"I'm gonna have to leave all this." I gestured to outside and then to him, causing him to blush. "That was pretty good right?" I laughed.
"Yes it was. Because of it I will reward you one whole strawberry." He scooped a whip cream covered strawberry off his plate and put it on mine.
"Oh how generous." I over dramatically gasped.
Our banter went on for a while until the waitress came and politely asked us to give up the table for other customers. I didn't even realize how long we were there for.
We began our journey to the beach. The sun blazed down on our backs. As we walked we took turns putting sunscreen on each other. We turned onto the main road and instantly ran into the rest of the boys, in their hands were bags full out towels, swimsuits, and beach toys. The rap line had each brought a beach chair, and Jungkook had a cooler as well.
The beach was surprisingly not that crowded. I mean, there is a lot of people but we didn't have to fight to get a good spot to lay down our stuff. Jimin, who had the bag full of our swimsuits, passed them out to us and we all ran towards the bathrooms to change. While Suga sat and watched our stuff since old man Min wasn't too into playing in the water.
I was the first to make it out of the bathroom and sprinted full speed to our spot. I threw my clothes onto a towel and ran towards the water. Only to be stopped by old man Min.
"Nope." He grabbed my wrist and pulled me back to our stuff. I crossed my arms grumpily while he dug through the bags and finally pulled out a long sleeve swim shirt.
"I know you don't have one so you can use one of mine." He smiled.
"But they're so uncomfortable." I whined back.
"If you swim in just that skimpy bikini you'll come back looking like a steamed lobster, now put it on." I did as he said and wore the shirt. It was a bit loose on me but better than it being too tight. I turned back to the beach to see almost all the boys already in the water.
"What! No fair, wait for me!" I yelled while running towards them.
The water was the perfect temperature for a hot day. I was laughing so much that my mouth tasted like salt water. I looked back to land to see Suga leisuring in his chair, Rapmon reading, and Jin blowing up the pool floaties they bought. I left the water and ran back over to them to check my phone.
"I'll be back in just one second." I grabbed my bag and went to sit on one of the cement benches by the sidewalk at the top of the beach. Once I was out of view from the boys I took off the swim shirt and threw on a towel, laying the shirt out next to me to dry a bit. I dug through my bag and pulled out my phone. No new messages. Typical.
"Funny running into you here." Someone sat next to me. I looked up to see the same guy I met at the airport.
"Oh, hi again." I smiled. "Sorry I ran off like that, it was a bit rude."
"Nah, nah. All good. I'm Parker by the way."
"(Y/n)."
"I've got to admit I was a bit confused when I saw you with those guys and all the cameras. It's like you're a celebrity or something." I could tell he was trying hard to keep his eyes on my face.
"Me? No. My boyfriend is part of a famous k-pop band." I motioned back to the boys. "That would explain if you heard me speaking Korean." His eyes lit up like everything finally made sense. I stood up and began drying my hair off with the towel.
"How'd you get those?" He pointed at the two scars on my stomach.
"I, uhm, got shot." I said hesitantly.
"Pft, no way. How'd you get them really."
"I'm serious, you can look it up it was all over the news." He picked up his phone to check when Taehyung came our way. I couldn't read his facial expressions at all. He picked up all my stuff and grabbed onto my wrists.
"Oh! Taehyung that hurts stop it!" I wiggled out of his grasp.
"You disappear for 5 minutes and you already find another guy." He growled
"What, no. We were just talking." He ran his fingers through his wet hair. "What is going on with you recently." It seemed like he was deciding whether to answer or not.
"First it was sleeping with Hoseok, then kissing Namjoon, and then running off to talk with some stranger!"
"Tae-"
"You're mine. You know that right."
"Of course I do." He forcefully grabbed my left hand and examined it.
"Then where is the ring. The ring I gave you when I asked you to be my girlfriend."
"Are you crazy? I gave it to Suga to hold on to so I didn't lose it in th-" I paused, I couldn't process everything that was going on. "I can't deal with your jealousy right now." I took everything but the swim shirt from his hands and started walking away. I could hear him yelling as I left but I was too angry to translate it. So much for a nice day at the beach.

Taehyung P.O.V

The sun had already set and (y/n) still hasn't come home. In fact, she has called or texted any of the members. She left in just her bathing suit, she didn't even have any shoes. I should have went after her, I don't understand why I've been so jealous recently. Especially when it comes to BTS. She's been physical with all of them since we first started dating, why is it only bugging me now. We were all worried sick waiting for some sign she was okay.
New message: (Y/n) <3
My hands shook so much I practically dropped the phone when I tried to pick it up. Attached to her message was an address and 'can u come get me'. I let out a sigh of relief while I texted her back, telling her not to move.
I ran the entire way to the address, not stopping for anything. My hair stuck to the sweat on my forehead, I probably looked crazy. I finally made it to the correct street and my speed began to slow down. I spotted her sitting against a concrete planter in front of a bar.
"(Y/n)?" She was wearing a hawaiian print shirt that was too big for her, black swim trunks, and pink flip flops.
"Hi." She reached her hands out like a little kid when they want to be picked up. I bent over and pulled her on my back to make it easier to carry her. She wrapped her arms around my neck and nestled her face into my neck.
"Where'd you get the clothes?"
"I bought," She hiccuped, "them."
"Are you drunk?"
"A little." I tried not to laugh as she slurred her words.
"How did you even get a drink you're not 21."
"I used my korean ID and pretended I didn't know english so they just believed me when I said I was 21."
"You can't do that anymore." I scolded her. She didn't reply, she must have fell asleep.
I made it back to the house before midnight and everyone was already asleep. I dropped her stuff on the ground and turned on my phone's flashlight to see better. The couch that I was assigned to had been taken up by J-hope.
Luckily the swimsuit underneath her new clothes were dry so she didn't have to change. I tucked her under the covered and I carefully slid in next to her. It feels good to be back next to her.

A/N: 500! That's crazy! Thank you guys so so much. I hope you're enjoying it so far. -M
