Its been a whole week since we've played the oh so hide and seek at their dorm. I could still feel the tingles spark throughout my body and a fire kindling in my heart and stomach.
Oh god. Help me recover from this exotic trauma.
"Nari? You're not even listening to me!"
"Huh? Oh sorry, Taehyung. I'm all ears now."
"So I was asking you if you have any ideas for this weekend?" I tilt my head even though I know I've been the laziest shoot on this planet.
"Well, I'm free this weekend. What are you guys planning?"
"Guys?? Pfft you weren't listening to me at all, isn't it?" He crosses his arms and leans back on the counter, his gaze piercing and judging me in different ways.
"Is it...just the two of us?"
"Yes." I sneer at the snarl he gave me with an answer.
"Okay. Okay. Sorry I wasn't listening but hey, how are you not at the recording studio now?"
"I rushed up with my things to come talk to you."
"Oh. Okay." I acknowledge, watching Claire enter the kitchen room back again with her phone, walking in mindlessly.
"I'll stay here until they come. Mustn't be too long enough." He says and finds himself a chair to sit on while checking out their lunch menu dishes.
I on the other hand am distracted by a loud vibration against my thigh.
"Oh. Heyya!" Stupid fucking Norse. Why did you sound so excited!?!? He is your ex!
"Hey~ someone's in a good mood I see."
"Nothing as such. So what's up?"
"Nah just called you because I wanted to." I chuckle at his response. At times, I too feel the incredible urge to ring him up and just hear him talk about anything and everything. This is messy, I know it myself but I can't help it when- okay fine I'll stop now for real.
"Hmm...well— EEK!" My body jumps back and hits the counter painfully when I find Kim Taehyung leaning into my ear. Probably eavesdropping on our conversation over phone.
"What the hell Tae, get back to your seat!" I whisper shout at the guy but he doesn't move an inch. Rather, he gives me his big bright boxy smile and I almost fall for his tricks.
"Ugh." I find no chances of keeping him away and finally decide to lock myself in the bathroom.
"Oh well. That's the weirdo."
"Norse, it honestly looks you're babysitting a bunch of eight year olds at this point."
"You see it like that. I literally feel like it, Dan and its just so...them."
"I understand. They'rewonderful boys."
"Okay fanboy. I gotta go. Its lunch time here."
"Oh yeah right. Have fun babysitting!"
"Grr"
His hearty laughter that I missed was heard and I slide my phone into my pocket.
"Noona~" Jimin's voice sings through the kitchen room and their gazes finally set up on me. I quickly wash my hands and help them out, rather just sit and watch them serve for themselves and giggle over everything they say to each other.
"We're so excited for the album to release eheheh" Namjoon says and giggles weirdly, his love for music showing greatly.
"Yeah, we have a darker concept for this album. And honestly, I love it." Yoongi says enthusiastically and my attention is split between Taehyung and Hoseok who begin speaking at the same time.
"Oh! Oh! And we have an outro prepared and its just too dope!" Hoseok comments and wiggles in his chair, potentially spilling the noodles all over himself but that wasn't a phenomenon now, thank God.
"I agree with Hobi. I heard the rappers rapping like gods and the finished product was just hmm~" Jin responds comically and I laugh at their priceless enthusiasm and love for their work. They just love making music, don't they?
But coming to my case though, my inner fangirl was just having a party and dying from over information at the same time. Imagine, if a real fangirl or fanboy, not under any disguise would actually hear all this before the album was released...what would their reactions be? I'm so sure they're going to faint because I'm feeling like that too right now.
"Noona and I start the album with my intro: Singularity!" Taehyung says and claps his hands like a whale, Jimin patting his head like a puppy.
"Yes! My Taehyung worked so hard for this. It's his first ever solo stage." Jimin appreciates his friend and I awe at their amity.
"Aw that's so sweet of you guys. I wish I had friends like you..."
Oh shoot.
Nari...you shouldn't have opened your mouth at all.
It was like a doom, my words, that it has brought upon an eerie silence around the table. I close my eyes and hit myself several times in my imagination, suddenly finding it hard to breathe when many pairs of eyes look at me mysteriously.
"Guys...I didn't mean it in that way."
"You're so transparent, noona." I gulp at Yoongi's words, my head hanging low again.
"Nari." A finger lifts my head up and I look at Taehyung who's standing in front of me. He turns the chair and kneels down in front of me, his warm hands on my thighs which sort of comforts me in this situation.
"It's alright. We all know what you're going through." He softly says which urges me to look into his eyes. He's sincere in his words, but I can't possible cross out the fact that he was once a source of my tension too.
"Noona..."
"She's not our noona." My breath gets stuck in my throat, panic rising up in the form of fear. My uneven breath hinders Taehyung but he stays still without showing me any emotion. I hold his hand tightly, shaking my head in refusal but it's already too late.
"She's one year younger than me."
That's it. My breath stops for a second and my panic clad eyes search for anger and disappointment from each one of them.
