"I love you Aera"

These four words were eating her brain up. Her lips still had the sensation of Taehyung's. The moment kept on rewinding. Unknowingly she felt happy. She somehow felt happy with his confession

She didn't know what was wrong with her. She just couldn't get him out of her mind

She looked at the view ahead of her. She was sitting near the cliff. According to people, it was a dangerous place but for her, it was her peace. The view calms her down, and it swallows all her worries.

She didn't know how long she sat there until her phone rang displaying the name 'kookie' on the screen.  She forgot that she had a friendly date with Jungkook

"Kookie?"

"Thank God you answered, Noona"

"Where are you?"

"I'm fine Jungkook" she assured tho she was not.

"Noona, I can sense you're not okay. Just tell me where you are"

Aera let out a sigh

" xxx place"

"Okay stay there, we're coming" that Jungkook hanged up

'we?  the rest of the guys were with him?

Minutes passed when a car stopped and six guys stepped out. Aera already knew who they were

"Aera what are you doing here? That too alone? It's dangerous" Jin said, his mama mode being activated

"It's dangerous but the view is to die for," Jhope said as he plopped down next to Aera as the guys followed

Aera smiled agreeing to the lad. She looked at them. These guys had become an essential part of her life now. They have grown so close to each other. She felt the feeling of a family, a complete family. Just then her brain tinged

"Guys, where are Jimin and Rose?"

"Oh them" a smile was evident in Suga's face, "we left them behind, together"

It didn't take Aera much time to understand what was going on. She laughed. Rose and Jimin liked each other, they were just too scared to confess  (A/N: no hate)

"So they took a step ahead?" The girl asked

"Maybe..." And they had a small hearty laugh

"Btw where are you guys here together?" She asked

"You don't want us here? Aera you hurt me" Jhope joked as he kept a hand above his heart pretending to be hurt

"No no, it's not like that, its just that me and kookie and a plan to go to the arcade"

"Oh," Namjoon said with a smirk, " so is there something going on that we don't know?"

"No Hyung, I just planned that to lift her mood. And jeez, haven't I told you that Aera is like a sister to me", Jungkook said and smiled at Aera, who obviously smiled back and he further continued.

"When you were still not there, I waited for you. Then I thought maybe you forgot about our plan, so I went to your house and you were also not there. I tried calling you, but it was out of reach. I asked the others if they knew about you, we got together to find you. You got us so worried", Jungkook let out a laugh and again continued, "And I thought to give a last try to call you and it got connected and the rest is history"

"Sorry I ruined our day out" she apologized, her head looking at the ground. She felt guilty that because of her he had to wait for so long and make them worried

"It's okay Noona, but are you okay?"

She gulped, the events of the happening again consumed her thoughts

Suddenly they heard a car being parked and stepped down the Jimin and Rose, holding hands.

The rest knew what was up, they raised their eyebrows at them

"We are finally dating," the newly couple said in unison. They smiled at them they were happy for them.

Seeing them, Aera had thought about Taehyung. She felt her heartache.

"Aera are you okay?" Rose asked as she and Jimin sat, joining the others

Aera just nodded

"Aera I know you for a long time now. Tell me what's bothering you"

Aera sighed. She knew she can't fool Rose.

"It's okay if you don't wanna say anything in front of us. We'll get going" Jin insisted

"No", a shout left Aera's mouth as the others flinched hearing the sudden shout

Aera calmed herself down mumbling a small sorry

"I trust you guys and I won't hide anything from you all"

They sat in silence, they knew something was bothering Aera and they waited patiently for her to say it. On the other hand, Aera sighed for the nth time before she opened up

"Taehyung likes me"

"What?" Rose exclaimed

Aera told them everything that happened between her and Taehyung

A small silence took place as she finished telling them. And at last, someone broke it

"We knew it"
