Yoongi's hand went out like a flame from a candle. His eyes darted to the back door, his expression going back to it's dead and uninterested default,

"Namjoon. So glad you could finally join the party." he sniffed, stepping away from you and turning to gave the newcomer. You felt Taehyung, Jungkook, and Jimin's tangible relief as you turned to get a better look at your unintentional savior.

He was tall, probably the tallest if the group with a round face and full soft pink lips. His eyes were narrow and dark, much like Yoongi's, but they held a deep, sensible spark that seemed to demand respect. His light blue green hair was brushed up and to the side like Jimin's but was more well kept and shorter than the being of Lust. His eyes drifted from Yoongi to you and a small, gentle smile crept onto his face, causing deep dimples to appear on his cheeks.

He looked slightly less threatening like that.

"Y/n... So good to see you up and about." he said kindly, dipping his head to you in some form of a bow. You nodded back,

"Uh, thanks I guess, Mr Namjoon I believe...?" you asked, hoping you got his name right and it wasn't some weird nickname Yoongi would of given him. Namjoon laughed, bringing a hand up to cover his perfectly aligned teeth,

"Yes, that is my name." he chuckled into his hand. He brought it down, his gaze turning dark as he looked at his brothers in the room, a dark aura settling across his shoulders. All of then physically squirmed under his gaze, avoiding his eyes like puppies that did something wrong, "And, pray tell, why exactly were you all doing...?" he said, his light twinkling laugh gone in a flash.

That was frightening.

"Nothing, Namjoon! We were just showing her around the house... Since she's awake now..." Hoseok said softly, playing with the fringe of his sleeve. Namjoon scoffed and shot a withering glance at Yoongi,

"Obviously showing her the house." he growled. Yoongi winced and groaned under his breath, cupping a hand to his forehead as if a sudden headache had come across him. Namjoon glared at him for a while, then straightened up, the dark aura that was surrounding him evaporating like a mist.
"Well, continue then. I wouldn't want to ruin Y/n's afternoon. If you'll excuse me." he said politely and turned on his heel, leaving the room. The door closed and echoed through the now silent dining hall, which was steadily becoming more and more uncomfortable.

"Sooooooooooooo... Want to continue?" Hoseok broke the silence first, clasping his hands together in front of himself. You blinked,

"Uh, sure. Ok." you muttered, becoming more and more weirded out with the house and it's inhabitants. Hoseok brightened and grabbed your hand, pulling you towards the new door that you hadn't been in yet. You glanced back at the others, who were following like lost ducklings and all smiled when they noticed you looking back (except Yoongi of course, he was going the opposite direction thank goodness). You turned back to face Hoseok again,
"So you're sloth, Jimin is lust, Yoongi is envy... What's everybody else?" You raised an eyebrow at the orange shock of hair. Hoseok laughed again, his sweet, bell like laughter,

"Well... It's not my place to give away everyone's deep dark secret." he turned around sharply and put a finger to his lips, winking cheekily,
"You're just going to have to ask them yourself!" he chirped and then continued to dance away, humming a tune. You huffed,

You had no intentions of getting to know these boys.
Or maybe you did...
Something just didn't seem right with them.
Then again, they were claiming to be the Seven Deadly Sins.

"I know the marble flooring is quite impressive, but I assure you, there are far more wonderful things to look at." Jungkook's warm breath tickled your ear, causing a series of chills to run up and down your spine. You snapped your head around to lock him in a very indignant glare, hoping to scare him off of your back. He cocked his head and stared right back at you with his large, doe like eyes.
