SOUL } 22

The next day I woke up in Tae's bare chest. His arms were around me, and I was on top of him. Our legs were entangled and my hands were under my head. His arms were wrapped around my lower back, and we were covered by his blanket.

"You awake, angel?" He hummed. "Mhm." I mumbled, and he chuckled. I leaned up so I was looking at him with my chin on my hands. He was looking up, and I viewed him from this angle and determined he is literally a god. He's so pretty. 

I leaned up and placed a soft kiss on his jaw, and he hummed. "Your lips are very soft," He noted. I hummed in response. "Stop complimenting me, pretty boy." I said, making him giggle. "You're the most gorgeous person I've ever met ever and you-" I cut him off by resting my and over his mouth and muffling his words. He licks my hand, and I pull my hand back. To be quite honest, I should have expected him to, because I do that too.

I giggle as I wipe his saliva on his pajama pants. "Fuck you, TaeTae." I say, and he giggles and leans down to kiss my forehead. "Anytime, angel." He says, and I groan. "Tae!" I giggle. 

We get up after a few more minutes of bickering and make our way to the living room. Jungkookie, Jiminie, Hoseokie and Namjoonie are all already awake and in the living room. I think about my dad then. He's probably not worrying. I brush my teeth like I have been doing with the toothbrush Namjoon handed me to use at the beginning of my stay.

Then, I walk back out and Taehyung and Jungkookie are playing Mario Kart. Again. Jiminie is sketching with his feet tucked under him, and Hoseok is listening to his music with his eyes shut. Only Jimin and Jungkook are wearing their clothes, and Hoseok and Tae and I all wear our pajamas (actually, I'm wearing Jiminie's jumper and Tae's pajama pants but whatevs.) I decide to go over to Hoseok, and sit between him and Jiminie. Jiminie pulls my legs onto his lap then perches his sketchbook on my shins. Hoseok lets me lay my head in his lap and he starts running his fingers through my hair, wavy from my braid yesterday.

He also puts an earbud in my ear, letting me listen to a song. A love song by a British singer. I listen to the English, understanding it in full. Hoseok, however, can't really understand it but listens anyways because it gives him emotions. Then he starts singing along, taking on a slightly more cheerful tone and not really pronouncing any of the words right. I listen to him sing though, and I listen to the brightest person I've ever met sing. 

He warms my heart with his terrible English. 

I just listen to him sing along cheerfully as more and more songs go by. Tae and Kook are shouting at each other in the background, Jiminie humming to the song. After a while, Namjoon pads out in his socks. I realize how long his legs are then, and that he's shirtless. His hickies are gone, and he yawns. I get up gently, and walk over to Namjoon and wrap my arms around him. He looks down at me and wraps his arms around me gently. 

"You're very short, baby girl." He hums, and I step back and wack him gently. He chuckles. "What, are you 164 centimeters?" He asks, and I scoff. "I'm 168 centimeters, thank you." I say, making him chuckle. "Okay, alright." He says, yielding. 

He pats me on the head and I think about kicking him in the balls for a sec. "Stop making fun of her, Joon." Hoseok hums, making Namjoon chuckle. "You know she's like, the perfect height for everyone's preference here. If she was any taller, she'd be taller than Jimin and maybe Yoongi. If she was any shorter she'd be an actual toddler to you." He reasons, and Namjoon nods. "Fine, fine. You're very appropriately tall and short." Namjoon says, and I nod.

"Thank you, Namjoon." I say. He chuckles, and leans down to kiss me on the top of the head.

"So have you  decided who you're Bonding with next?" He asks. I hum. "Nope, not really." I say. Namjoon nods. "Well, I think Jungkookie will take longer to Finalize with you than Jin, so I'd do Jin first." He says. I nod. "You can Bond with Jinnie first, I don't mind." Jungkook says, turning. I nod. "Okay, baby." I hum, taking into consideration the timing and everything. "Yeah, I'll Bond with Jin first because I want to cook with him, finally." I hum. 

Namjoon chuckles. "Great. I feel like when you and Jungkookie Finalize it'll just be video gaming for 3 days. I still don't know when Finalizing happens and triggers it, so it could be five minutes or a week after you Bond." He says, and I nod. "I'm so excited to finish Finalizing." I hum, and he nods. "But I feel like I'm neglecting everyone when I'm Bonding with someone." I say, and he frowns softly. 

"Baby girl, you're fine. Okay? We understand, even if we do miss you." He says, and I nod softly as he pulls me into his chest again. "Thank you, Joon." I hum, and that's when Jin appears at the doorway in a full set of cute light pink pajamas. "Good morning, Hyungie." Jiminie hums, not looking up from his sketch pad. "Morning, Min Min. Morning, guys. Baby." He hums, and I meet his eye. 

"Jungkook thinks we should Bond before I Bond with him." I hum, and his eyes widen slightly. "But he wants to Bond so much." Jin murmurs, and I look over to Jungkook. "If you don't want to then-" I start, but he shakes his head. "No, no, I do." He says but I step back, now feeling as if I'm pressuring him. "Aw, Ara, baby stop that." He hums, stepping forward. "Stop arguing." Namjoon says, and I shoot him a look. Then he grabs my hand, and pulls it out to the air in front of Jin. 

Jin meets my eye before he brings his hand up to meet mine. I feel the change, and I feel more together. His eyes widen, and he steps back, his hand parting from mine. My head immediately bursts, like the worst migraine ever. I bring my hand up to my head, and I can't hear anything until I'm holding his hand. The pain cuts off immediately, and Jin's watching with a surprised expression on his face. "You- are you okay, baby?" He asks, and I nod. "I'm fine, are you okay?" I ask, and he bites his lip. "I- I didn't feel anything." He says, and I nod.

"Good. It hurt." I say. 

WORD COUNT: 1157

Okay so this chapter is a bit ironic because my new neighbor (6'1'') keeps making fun of my height because I'm almost a foot shorter than him TT. I was grounded so triple update :)
