Chapter 13: What does it mean?
So, here we all are, standing around the table in the kitchen. We're staring down at the little mysterious black box, wondering what's inside - deja vu. I decided to speak up in this intense staring competition with the box. "Got any ideas of what could be inside?" I asked. All attention was now drawn away from the box and directed at me. "Maybe pictures like the last time," Jin Oppa said. He shrugged his shoulders and as he spoke he had a certain kind of seriousness in his tone that I've never heard before - that kinda sent chills down my spine. "Could be," Yoongi Oppa added. "Why don't we shake it and hear what's inside," said Taehyung Oppa, picking the box up and holding it up to his ear. He started shaking it. It was as if everything happened in slow motion. Panic arose in me, because it could be a bomb inside there. I feel like the rest of them were catching on to what I was thinking, because their sudden changes in facial expressions were proof enough. And everything that happened next was just in a mere matter of seconds. I leaned over to the opposite side of the table where he stood and grabbed the box from his grasp. Jimin Oppa hit him behind the head.
"What if it's a bomb, stupid!? Think," Hoseok oppa quipped at him, poking at Taehyung Oppa's head. "I didn't think of that," he said with a sheepish smile. "Clearly, tell me what's new," Jungkook Oppa said, grinning at his own statement. "Well, it didn't explode, so it's not a bomb. What did you hear inside?" I asked curiously as I kept the little box in my grasp. "I heard something small moving inside, like something plastic, because of the sound it made when it hit the walls of the box," he said. Small and plastic? We all looked at each other with the same thoughts in mind. "USB," Yoongi Oppa suddenly blurted. "What?" Namjoon inquired with a face masked with full blown confusion from the sudden remark. "Think about it, what's a small enough 'plastic-thing' that can fit inside that box?" he questioned, pointing at the small rectangular object in my hands. "Let's hope your right," I said, looking at the man standing next me. I lifted the lid off the box. As I put the lid down, the room became eerily quiet. "You're right," I said, looking down at the little silver and black USB. In addition, underneath, it was a neatly folded piece of paper. To be honest, I was expecting something extreme and gory inside like a severed finger or something, but I pushed that thought away. I took out the little plastic USB and gave it to Jin Oppa to hold onto.
I reached in and took out the neatly folded note, not knowing what I should expect it to say. I set the little black box down on the kitchen table and put my undivided attention back on the little note in my shaky palms. "Who wants to read it?" I asked with a small, almost inaudible, shaky voice. "I'll do it," Namjoon Oppa volunteered and took the piece of paper from my hands. I unknowingly moved slightly closer to Yoongi Oppa, scared of what the note could say. He probably noticed, swung his arm around my shoulders and squeezed them in reassurance. I looked up at him. He had just showed me his gummy smile, which made me smile at him in return. Both of us turned our attention back to see Namjoon opening the letter slowly and carefully; he made sure not to tear it, knowing his history. I slightly giggled to myself at the thought. We stared at him in suspense as he read the note. "SO, WHAT DOES IT SAY!" We all yell at him in unison. He turned the letter to face us, so we could read what's on it.
THERE'S A VIDEO ON THE USB WATCH IT.
M.A
Is all that read on the letter. Our eyes trailed off to Jin Oppa, who still had the USB in his hands. "Well, let's see shall we," Jin Oppa said, while striding into the living room where the laptop stood - on the table where we left it. We all watched him as he put the USB in the input on the laptop. He moved the mouse slowly on the one and only file on the USB, then, he turned to us. "Ready to see this is?"
One by one, everyone nodded then turned to me to see what I would say. "Ready," I said in a small voice, making quick eye contact with everyone before putting all my attention on the laptop screen. I was still holding onto Yoongi Oppa's hand that was slung around my shoulder. Jin Oppa clicked on the screen. The video opened as it revealed a dark picture, before a masked figure dressed in all-black stepped out of the shadows. From the way this mysterious person is built, you can tell it was a man. The broad shoulders and height was enough to come to this conclusion.
"I know you may be wondering who I am, but my identity is not important right now."
He started off saying. We shared the same suspicions and looks before looking at the video again.
"Well, you just need to know that you should stop running and trying to hide. Because wherever you run, I will still catch you if you hide. I'll find you, so do yourselves and me a favor and keep watch, because you never know where I could be hiding."
He finished off his sentence with a cold, sick and twisted laugh that echoed through the room - sending chills down my spine. I couldn't take the laughing anymore! I closed my eyes and tried to drown out the noise, but the last sentence he said made me open my eyes with pure terror.
"I'll be waiting for you, (Y/n)."
He said laughing that sick twisted laugh one last time, then the video ended. Almost immediately, all the boys turned to a teary eyed me. Just when Jin Oppa was about to say something, I burst out into tears again for the how many-th time this week. Next thing I know, my face was buried into someone's chest. When I looked up, I saw that it was Yoongi Oppa's chest I was crying into. At that moment, I didn't care at all, I clung onto his T-shirt like my life depended on it. I cried my heart out. All the boys then stood up, made a circle around Yoongi Oppa and embraced us in a group hug.
After a while, when I had calmed down, Yoongi Oppa walked me to the couch and had me sit down. The others either sat on the floor or just remained standing. "Okay, (Y/n), you know that we care about you right?" Hoseok Oppa inquired. I nodded my head, not knowing what else to say. "Good, we promise we'll help you get through this, so please stop crying. You look so much more prettier when you smile," Yoongi Oppa said, making me smile. "Well, I can't argue with you there," I said, giggling. "Now, there's that pretty smile. It better stay there or me and you are gonna have a exchange of words," Jungkook Oppa warned lightly. "And what are those words actually going to be?" Jin Oppa said with a hint of sass. "Oh no, none Hyung," Jungkook said, his ears turning a slight shade of red from the embarrassment. We all started laughing at this little scene happening in front of us. These boys really do know how to brighten up a person's mood.
Yoongi's POV
After we all heard the last sentence that sick piece of shit on the video was saying, I looked down at (Y/n) on the left. She was still gripping on my hand that was slung around her shoulder for dear life - like if she were to let go, I would disappear. The video ended as I looked down to see (Y/n) with tears threatening to fall out of those usually smiley hazel-brown eyes. Jin Hyung was just about to say something when (Y/n) burst out crying. And as if on instinct, I pulled her in my chest, giving her a reassuring hug. And I know for me that is a bit out of character, but for now, that doesn't matter.
What matters now is (Y/n).
I could tell that she was a little taken aback by the sudden hug, because she looked up at me. Although, immediately after, she clung onto my T-shirt like her life depended on it. The rest of the boys stood up and huddled around us in a group hug. When (Y/n) had calmed down, I walked her over to the couch and sat her down. I sat in front of her on the floor with some of the others, while the rest just carried on standing. "Okay, (Y/n), you know that we care about you right?" Hoseok said to her and she just nodded her head. "Good, we promise we'll help you get through this, so please stop crying. You look so much more prettier when you smile," I said, trying to cheer her up. "Well, I can't argue with you there," she remarked, which made me smile back at her snarky comment. "Now, there's that pretty smile. It better stay there or me and you are gonna have words," Jungkook said trying to act tough. "And what are those words actually going to be?" Jin Hyung sassed. "Oh no, none Hyung," Jungkook said with his ears turning a slight shade of red from the embarrassment and all that toughness he had a minute ago vanished. We all laughed at this little scene unraveling in front of us. While we were all laughing, I stole a glance at the girl seated in front of me. She seemed so tired you could tell by the bags under her eyes. I kind of felt sorry for her, 'cause of the situation that she is caught up in. Yet, despite everything, she still manages to smile. I admire that about her.
When we finally stopped laughing, the whole room fell silent. "Instead of sitting here in awkward silence, why don't we watch a movie instead?" Jungkook suggested. "Sure, why not," (Y/n) said in a small voice. "But the question is what movie?" she inquired, looking around to see if anyone had any suggestions. "How about Whispering Corridors 5: Blood Pledge?" I suggested, knowing how Hoseok and Jimin would freak out. "Perfect," (Y/n) agreed. Jimin and Hobi's faces noticeably paled. "I'll pop the popcorn!" Jin yelled, standing up and leaving. "I'll get the drinks," Taehyung said as he followed after Jin Hyung and jumped on his back. "We'll get the blankets." Jungkook dragged Hoseok and Jimin with him upstairs, while Namjoon just lagged behind them - telling Jungkook to slow down, because he was practically dragging Jimin and Hoseok up the stairs.
"I'll get the movie ready," (Y/n) said. "And I'll be sitting here." I sat down on the very place where (Y/n) had been sitting. I closed my eyes and leaned my head back, relaxing in the seat. Then, I felt the couch sink in. I opened one eye and looked to my left to see (Y/n) sitting with the TV remote in her hand, ready to start the movie. "HURRY UP OPPAS BEFORE I START THE MOVIE WITHOUT YOU!" she screeched in my ear without realizing. "Ouch," I said nonchalantly, holding my ear with my hand. "Sorry," she whispered back. "It's okay," I dismissed, looking back at the TV.
"Hey, Yoongi Oppa?" (Y/n) called. I hummed in response signaling that it was okay for her to talk. "Uhm... thanks for earlier. I really needed a hug," she thanked shyly. "You don't need to thank me. Any of the boys would have done the same for you," I said to her, while holding her hand. "Okay," she said as she smiled at me. We peered back to the TV, ready to watch the movie without the rest of the boys, but everyone eventually piled into the room with snacks, drinks, blankets and pillows. "Ready for the best scary movie ever?" she asked all the boys before playing the movie.
*time skip to the end of the movie*
Well, we painfully watched the movie, while Hoseok and Jimin seemed to be having a screaming competition with every scene in the movie that had blood in. I found it very ironic, since the name of the movie is Whispering Corridors 5: BLOOD pledge. But at the end of the movie, everyone was asleep except me and Taehyung. I peered beside me where (Y/n) was sound asleep with her head rested on my shoulder. "I'm heading off to bed. Should I wake them or leave them all here?" Tae asked. "Leave them, they'll wake up eventually," I answered. "Should I take her to her room?" he, once again, questioned. "Nah, i'ts fine. I'll do it. My bedroom is next to hers anyway," I reassured him. "Okay, then, night Hyung," he greeted and made his way up the stairs. I look down at (Y/n), sleeping peacefully, and sighed. "I hope you're light," I said, lifting her up carefully off the couch, placing her on my lap and her head on my chest. I stood up and, to my surprise, she was actually light.
I made my way up the stairs when she started wiggling closer into my chest for warmth. I made it to her room, I opened the door and neared her bed. Before I set her down, I opened the cover with one hand and held her up with the other. I gently placed her down on the bed. I proceeded to take off her shoes and then, pulled the blanket over her. I had walked away, but her hand grabbed hold of my wrist. I turned around and saw her sitting right up in the bed. "Thanks for bringing me up and for everything you've done," she said, pulling me down and giving me a kiss on the cheek. That totally took me by surprise, but I just smiled. "Your welcome. Now, go back to sleep," I instructed softly, tucking her back in.
"Night," I said. "Night," she greeted back and I walked out of the room to mine. "What a day? I can't wait to sleep it off," I thought aloud as I dived face first on my bed, immediately falling asleep.
(Y/n)'s POV
We were all trying to watch the movie, but Jimin and Hoseok kept on screaming at the sight of blood. It was literally the whole movie, because the movie is called Whispering Corridors 5: BLOOD pledge! Half way through the movie, I felt sleepy and when I fully passed out, my head hit something soft and warm.
After what felt like hours of sleep, I heard a voice saying: I hope you're not heavy. Then, I felt my body being moved. The small breeze from moving made me feel slightly cold, so I tried to snuggle closer to the warm thing against my face. Whoever was carrying me stopped and started moving things. After that, I was placed down onto a comfy-warm-thing and covered. I decided to open my eyes to see where I was laying in. I was in my bed and it was Yoongi Oppa that brought me here. I sat up and reached for his hand before he walked out. He turned and looked at me. "Thanks for bringing me up and for everything you've done." I said and pulled him down to give him a kiss on the cheek. He seemed a bit shocked. "Your welcome. Now, go back to sleep," he said, tucking me back in and walking towards the door. But, he turned around before he would leave.
"Night," he said.
"Night."
He closed the door and I immediately fell back asleep.
*time skip to morning*
I was awoken the next morning by someone poking at my cheek.
I just shrugged whoever it was off. I rolled around, but this person just wouldn't let me sleep! I gave up and rolled back over. Although, I didn't open my eyes. "Who is it and what is it you want from me that you dare to disturb my beauty sleep?" I questioned bluntly, eyes still closed. "Well, I'm the only one awake and I'm not tired any more. All the guys are still passed out in front of the TV, so will you please talk to me?" I opened one of my eyes to see who it is and it had been Hoseok Oppa.
"Fine, you woke me up already," I said, sitting up. I scooted over, so he can sit next to me. He smiled, lifted up the blanket and sat next to me. "So, what can we do now that we're up?" I asked, still a bit peeved that he woke me up. "What do you want to do?" he asked me. "What do I want to do? I want to sleep, that's what I want to do, you care to join me?" I said as I scooted down under the blanket and put my head on the pillow. "I'll try to fall asleep again at least," he said, laying down next to me. There was silence once we done so.
A question crossed my mind that I was dying to ask one of the boys. Why not now? "Hey, Oppa," I called. "Ne," He replied, signaling me to continue. "Why do you and all the others put up with all the fucked up shit that happens to you because of me?" I asked, my eyes glued to the ceiling. "Because, you're part of our team now and if something happens to one of us, we all pitch in to help. So don't ever think that we don't care about you. Push that thought far away, alright?" he said as he rolled over on his side and looked at me. "Okay, Oppa. I trust you," I said and gave him a hug. "Can we stay like this for a while, 'cause I'm kinda comfortable and your warm," I said, snuggling closer to him. "Sure, why not. I love hugs," he agreed as we laid back down.
Before I fell asleep, I took a look at the clock to see the time - 3:55 am. 'Thanks Hobi oppa for waking me up so early,' I think as I roll my eyes internally.
*Time skip to later that day*
P.S: sorry for all the time skips can't think of anything to fill in there.
"Ugh! I'm so bored!" I ranted loudly as I flopped down on the couch next to Jiminie Oppa. "Then, shame," he remarked, turning his attention back to his phone. "No, Oppa, don't be so," I whined, trying to get on his nerves. "Fine, what do you want to do?"
'What do I want to do?' I questioned. "I don't know, you tell me," I told him. "I've got an idea," he said with a sly smirk on his face. "Should I be worried?" I asked. "Not if you wanna have fun," he replied with the same smirk. "Then what you waiting for. Let's do this shit," I said, getting up and grabbing a hold of his hands - trying to pull him up. "Okay, come on. Let's go," he said, dragging me somewhere. To think I was just an assistant and a huge fan of these 7 dorks.
