Jimin's POV:

"Woah, Jungkook," I gasp, pointing to his large plate of food, "If I didn't know you I'd think you haven't eaten in days,"

He looks up at me with a mouth full of food, "Hey, I'm a growing man,"

We all laugh at the boy, watching as he continues to enjoy is oversized meal. Aish, This kid.

"RaeJae-ah, Are you sure that's all you want," Jin asks the girl. She nods, giving us a pathetic smile.

Ever since we met with manager Hobeom she's been quite distant. All she's done this entire time is stare into her bowl of soup... that and fiddle with her worn wallet. I can tell that us boys want to ask what our manager meant when he said that she was her own guardian, but none of us dare speak up.

Especially when she looks like she's on the verge of tears.

I knew that you could get emancipated, but I had no idea that it was possible at the young age of fourteen.

"RaeJae, do you want to go home?" I ask, her eyes flickering up towards me.

"Um, yeah I think so," She sighs, leaving some money with Jungkook who's sitting next to her, "It's for my soup,"

"It's okay, I'll pay," He smiles back at her.

"Thanks but I wouldn't feel right," She says quickly before making her way to the front door.

We all stare at each other worriedly. Having not known this girl for very long we have no idea what to make of her strange personality. Alls I know is that she must be very independent.

"Someone should go with her," Jin suggests, "Yoongi?"

"Aniya, Aniya..." He trails off, "I'm not good with comforting people. I say Jimin,"

"What? Why me?"

"Because you seem good with kids," Yoongi points out.

"I am a kid!"

"I'll go," Taehyung stands up, "With Jimin,"

"Oo, can I go too?" Jungkook raises his hand.

I laugh at him, "I mean if you really want to,"

"Good bye maknae line," Yoongi waves us off as we chase after RaeJae.

RaeJae's POV:

Aish... I really need to get my shït together. I'm already making drama in an idol group that hasn't even debuted yet.

I kick a pebble along as I continue down the sidewalk. It bounces across the pavement and into the road, a car running over it.

"Getting thrown into something you aren't prepared for, huh..." I whisper to the inanimate rock, "Except I did it to myself,"

"YAH! RAE-AH!"

My body flinches at the sudden loud voice in my ear. Shortly after an arm wraps around my shoulder, flustering me even more as I realize it's Taehyung.

"Oh my god oppa, You scared me," I breath out, my hand on my chest.

"No, I'm V hyung," He giggles giving me his squarish smile.

Nothing can ever be awkward with this kid... I envy his personality.

"Aish, I just don't feel right calling all of you hyung," I duck out of his arm, bumping into Jungkook.

"You don't have to call me that," He says, "we are both 97 liners,"

I only smile at his comment, partially because I don't know how to respond. These boys are all somehow succeeding in making me actually feel a sense of happiness in my dull life. I honestly haven't smiled this much since... since I don't even know when.

"Yah, how about we maknae's play some video games back at our dorm," Jimin comes in between Jungkook and I.

"Video games? I don't think I'll be any good at those..." I trail off.

"Aniyo, I'm an expert," Jimin places his hand on his chest, "I'll teach you everything I know,"

"I don't know, Hyung. I'm pretty competitive," Jungkook smirks.

"Yeah? Well I'm a fast learner," I laugh, Jungkook giving me a 'we'll see' look.

It makes me happy to see everyone getting along so well. Jungkook is definitely starting to come out of his shell... maybe it's time for me to do the same.

~at the dorm~

"Wait! Wait! Wait! How do I make it go!" I squeal, pressing every button possible on the Xbox controller.

"Every man for himself!" Jimin laughs evilly as the count down before the race starts.

"You little liar!" I push his arm lightly, "You said you'd teach me, oppa!"

"It's Hyung!"

"Hold down B!" V reaches over from my left to press the button for me. My cart starts to go however V's remains stationary.

"Yah! What are you doing," I laugh, pressing down V's B button to go.

We both laugh hysterically as we make use of each other's lending hand. Although, I'm sure it would be a lot easier if we just kept to our own controllers.

"Jungkookie is in first?!" I gasp dramatically, considering how all Jungkook could go on about was how good he his at everything he does.

"Told you so," He smirks once he crosses the finish line.

"Yah! V hyung!" I cry, he stopping my cart whilst his crosses behind Jimin.

He lets out small giggles as I punch his arm a few times. Jungkook continues to do a little victory dance, mocking Jimin who came in second.

"Aish, these Maknaes are already getting out of control," Jimin sighs, "What happened to the shy little fourteen year olds who barely had voices?"

I smile at him in return, feeling extremely happy in this very moment. This is the first time I actually feel content with my decision to join Bangtan Sonyeondan. Maybe this is the end to my dark times...

"Let's watch a movie," V suggests.

"Can we watch a horror one?"

"Nooooooo," Both Jimin and I say in unison while Jungkook pouts.

"How about anime?" V asks, "They have Cardcapter Sakura on Netflix,"

"Ooo that's a good movie," I smile, having watched it about a million times.

"But it's in Japanese,"

"Jiminie pabo, that's why they have a subbed version," V teases.

"You'll like it, trust me," I yawn. I'm starting to feel the effects of my sleepless night.

We finally agree on Cardcaptor Sakura, but my eyes refuse to do as I please. Instead they slowly give into the need for sleep. My thoughts drifting off until finally reaching the deep state of dreams.

V's POV:

I could clearly see that she was having trouble staying awake. Her head continuously falls forwards as her eyes drift open and close. She must have not gotten a good nights rest... and thinking back on it she did seem wide awake in the early hours of the morning.

I wonder what made her scream last night...

I bet she was watching scary movies alone... or maybe she saw a gigantic snake in her dorm room. Who knows?

My hand quickly reaches out when she almost falls completely on her face. Not even that can wake her up? Wow...

"Maybe we should take her back to her dorm," Jimin whispers carefully.

"Aniyo, I think we should let her sleep a bit," I reply, allowing her head to rest on my shoulder. Even though I'm quite young, I've always considered myself good with kids. Possibly it's because I act like one, but either way it works.

My eyes wander to Jungkook who seems to be staring at me wide eyed. Is there something on my face? I furrow my eyebrows at the boy causing him to look away.

"Jungkook-ah, is something wrong?"

He literally jumps at my voice, "A-A-Aniyo!"

Just when I am about to question him Rae begins to stir.

"D-don't,"

We all turn to her, soft mumbles escaping her lips as her expression seems to be strained. Her hand suddenly grips the fabric of my sweater as if it might be her life source. She must be having a night mare.

"Should we wake her, hyung?" Junkook asks worriedly.

"Don't touch me!" She suddenly shouts, all of us jumping. How is this girl still asleep?

"Aren't you not supposed to wake someone from a bad dream?" Jimin asks quickly, getting up from the couch to look at her properly.

"I think that's a myth..." I trail off, watching as her chest rises and falls rapidly.

"GET OUT!"

Rae stands from the couch literally falling into Jimin. The two fall to the ground with Rae staring down at him. Awkward position might I just add.

"R-Rae?" Jimin stutters, staring at the girl with a dumb founded expression.

She quickly scrambles off him and hugs her knees to her chest. If I had to guess it looks like she just saw a ghost, or maybe even an alien with that look on her face.

"Do you wanna talk about it?" I ask her.

Rae looks up into my eyes hesitantly, feeling a necklace around her neck before sighing. Her cheeks are bright red and I can tell she wants to say something but doesn't know what.

"I'm sorry!" She says so quick that we can barely understand the poor girl.
She hurriedly rushes out of our dorm, leaving us speechless.

"Alright, what did you pabo's do to Rae?" Namjoon walks in with everyone except Yoongi.
