The Kai-Copter Theory

RM

I sat in my room, texting Moonbyul about the party. Jin mentioned to me during practice that Jimin was considering going, so I wanted to know if Mamamoo would be going too. They didn’t seem interested in going at first, but when I told her that we might be going, she seemed to warm up to the idea.
    A knock at my door pulled my attention away from my phone. I looked up to find Jin standing over me, his arms crossed. “What are you doing?” He asked.
    “Texting Byul about the party. They might go if we go.” I said. “What’s up?”
    Jin slowly closed the door behind him, then sat down at the end of my bed and crossed one leg over the other. I sat up straight, realizing this was going to be a serious conversation.
    “Have you said anything to V or Jhope about the rumors?” He asked in a soft voice.
    “Rumors? You mean about Jimin and Suga?”
    He nodded his head.
    “No! Of course not! I didn’t say anything to them, I swear.”
    He put his hand on my knee. “I believe you, Namjoon, but I saw those two whispering to each other during practice. I don’t know what’s going on, but something tells me they might be in on this.”
    I let myself relax again. “Maybe someone else told them.”
    “But who? Suga and Jimin wouldn’t say anything to them; they both want this drama to end.”
    “Wait, Jimin knows about the rumors?”
    He scoffed. “Yeah, thanks to you. He told me he didn’t want me talking about it anymore, so obviously he wouldn’t tell V and Jhope about it. They must have overheard someone talking about it.”
    “Or, maybe Jungkook said something to them.” I suggested.
    Jin gave me a confused look. “Do you think Jungkook’s in on this too?” He asked.
    “Maybe.”
    His eyes grew wider and wider as he sat there and thought about it. “RM, you might be right. A couple days ago, Jungkook called me and V over to look at some pictures on his phone. They were just random pictures of dogs, nothing important. Suga and Jimin were in the kitchen at the same time. Jimin wanted to look at the pictures too, but Suga called him back.”
    “So, Suga and Jungkook are in cahoots?”
    He shook his head. “That doesn’t make any sense. Suga never mentioned Jungkook to me and he wouldn’t tell him anyways; he’s trying to end the rumors, not spread them more.”
    “Sounds like we need to talk to Jungkook and Suga.” I said.
    Jin stood up again. “Alright. You talk to Jungkook, I’ll talk to Suga.”
    “Now?”
    “Now.”
