Everyone fell silent as Namjoon struggled to breathe.

"We should start walking now, I know this great place where we can eat, what do you all want?" I said as we started walking.

"Ice cream!" Jungkook cheered, swinging him and Taehyung's hands as they skipped toward together.

"Ice cream!" Taehyung sung out in agreement with Jungkook.

"I'll have whatever you're having!" Hoseok smiled at me brightly as I smiled back.

"Ice cream sounds good," Namjoon nodded as well.

"I want pancakes, waffles, eggs, bread, French toast, cereal, ooh, butter on the bread, ice cream, cookie-"

"He'll have ice cream and can see what else is on the menu," Namjoon cut Jin off as he pouted.

"Rude much," he mumbled as Namjoon pulled him close and apologized.

"And you two decided not to talk to me, so you can order whatever," I said, turning away from Yoongi and Jimin as they called out for me.

Maybe this would end their anger between each other.

Letting a sigh out, I went into the cafe that I had been before where they had a separate ice cream selection.

"I'll get us a table, you all order the ice cream you want and Jin can get anything else," I said as Hoseok walked over with me, looking for a table to fit all of us.

"This one seems big enough and it's by the window!" Hoseok gestured over to a larger table with enough seats for all of us.

"Great job! What do you want to eat? We should go order as well," I said as the rest of the members came over to sit down.

"Dad, what flavor did you get?" Hoseok asked Namjoon as Jin sat down next to him.

"Peaches and cream."

"Mom?"

"Sweeter than sweet chocolate."

"Tae and Kookie?" I asked as they turned to me with grins.

"We got every flavor they had!"

Of course they did.

I looked at Jimin and Yoongi to ask them as well, remembering that they were mad at each other as I looked away.

Guys hurry the hell up and be happy.

You're killing me.

And to think that it hasn't even been a whole twenty four hours that we've been together.

Fu-

"Let's go order!" Hoseok said as he let Saint sit with Jimin and Yoongi.

"Alrighty!" I got up with him as we went up to the counter.

"Hello! What would you like to eat today? Oh, Y/N!!" I heard the waitress chirp as she looked back at the rest of the members sitting there. "You've got friends staying with you now?" She asked as she pushed a menu forward for Hoseok to look at.

"Yeah, the seven of them will be with me from now on as I will be with them," I told her as she nodded.

"Aw! And you brought Saint!"

"Yup," I said as Hoseok tugged at my arm.

"I want the pancakes but I don't think I'll eat all ten of them," he looked up at me as I nodded.

"Then we can share them. We'll take an order of pancakes and then we will decide the drinks in a moment," I said as she nodded and wrote the order down.

We both walked back as Hoseok sat down with a grin.

"Woah, so everyone here knows you?" He asked as I nodded.

"Yeah, I come around relatively often so many people around here know each other," I explained.

"That's neat! Now they'll know us too!"

"You got that right," I laughed as everyone's ice cream came and pancakes were put in front of me and Hoseok. "Guys what do you want to drink?"

I got shakes of heads from everyone except for Jin who enthusiastically raised his hand up.

"I want a milkshake!"

"Alright," the waitress nodded as she went back.

"After this we'll go shopping for your clothes," I said as everyone gave a nod.

Picking up the fork, I started eating the pancakes as Hoseok chewed away at them too.

Finishing the plate, Jin finished his plates of food as well when his milkshake came and everyone ate their ice creams.

We all finished our meal as I paid the bill, refusing everyone's offers.

"Is Saint allowed inside?" Hoseok asked as we came to the mall that connected a bunch of stores together.

"Yeah, mostly everyone knows him and accepts him just fine," I nodded as we all went inside, heading to several shops as they got things like shoes and socks, the basic things before we headed to find clothes.

"So how are Jiminie and Yoon going to try on their clothes?" Jin asked as he looked over at them.

That was actually a good question.

I gave off a careless shrug.

"They can help each other."

I didn't get a response from either Yoongi or Jimin, hearing nothing but the clink of the metal handcuffs that had them chained together.

"I want to go to Gucci, they have a new style that I want," Taehyung lit up as Jungkook nodded.

"Yeah, you showed me we can have you try on the new clothes that came in the collection," he grinned as I pulled a credit card out and handed it over to the both of them.

"Go on ahead then if you'd like then we can all meet together," I said as Jin seemed uneasy.

"What if they get lost?" He asked as he held Taehyung and Jungkook still.

"Here, let me see everyone's phones," I held my hand out as I gestured everyone over to a bench.

Sitting down, I laid everyone's phone out as I placed mine down as well.

"I can put trackers in everyone's phones so we all know where each other are and not lose anyone, do you want that?" I asked as I got aggressive nods from everyone.

I connected the location monitor from my phone onto everyone else's as all of our names came up onto each phone, tracking our movement as I let everyone record and transfer to their phones.

"You all have the location where each of us are. In case of an emergency, any of you can let out an alert that will reach out to the rest of us," I explained as they all nodded. "Saint's collar has a tracker in it too, I put it in early this morning."

"This is just great!! Then I want to go to the new stuffed animal store that opened here!" Jin exclaimed as he pulled Namjoon forward after I handed him a credit card as well.

"Wait! I want to go with mom and dad!" Hoseok said as Namjoon and Jin waited for him to join them.

"We want to be alone," Taehyung and Jungkook immediately said as I chuckled.

"Alright, do you at least want Saint with you guys s-"

"Yeah! Puppy!!" Taehyung cooed as I gave him the leash, Jungkook giving me a hug before they waved and went their own way as well.

"Now it's us," I turned to Jimin and Yoongi who were facing the opposite way from each other. "Seriously, I can't handle the tension between you two, what happened this morning?"

They both turned to look at each other, holding their intense stares, but they weren't glaring menacingly as they were before. It was as though they were debating over something as they turned to face me, opening their mouths to speak at the same time.

"Your parents."

My eyes widened a fraction before I narrowed them.

"What about them?"

"What is it with them?" Jimin stepped towards me as I took a step back. "What happened last night, the first thing you feared was your parents. How bad can they be that you are terrified like that? Ever since the moment we were together, your comments about any of your family, especially your parents, have all been bitter."

"I told you to forget it," I snapped.

"What do you mean, just forget it? How are we supposed to forget the facts of last night and the absolute terror you were in, the strongest person we know since you're a trained martial artist, was in the weakest state because of their own paren-"

"I said forget it," I said in a harsher tone.

"I heard your screaming this morning," Jimin kept speaking as my eyes widened.

"I wasn't screaming, I didn't scream," I said as I felt my fears claw back up my throat.

"When you were sleeping, you kept screaming before you woke up," Yoongi said as he came towards me as I backed away.

"No, I wa-"

"Don't deny it, Y/N. I was right there, and even Jimin heard you from the other roo-"

"Just drop it!" I hissed as they stepped forward again, me taking another step back.

"Y/N!" Yoongi reached out towards me as I flinched and shrunk back.

No, no.

They wouldn't hurt me.

I had to give them that much of my trust.

"Y/N?" Yoongi asked as he pulled his hand back, seeing me not meet his eyes. "I'm sor-"

"Don't apologize," I cut him off as I raised my head to meet his eyes. "It's none of your faults," I forced a smile onto my face as I pulled them along into the store. "I'll explain everything to you when the time comes for it."

"You don't have to, we shouldn't have pushed yo-"

"I do have to, now that I'm your personal guard," I cut Jimin off. "And you have every right to ask me what you did because I would do the same for any of you had the roles been reversed. I just don't want to cause any unnecessary commotion where it's not needed. Plus, try to enjoy the happy times while they last," I muttered the last part as they didn't speak.

"How about we try these pants on?" Jimin asked as he grabbed a pair of jeans and black leather pants for himself and Yoongi, dragging him over to the changing rooms.

"I'll find you guys more stuff!" I called out as they waved me off.

Yoongi's POV

Jimin pulled me in as he shut the door behind us, laying the pants over the bench.

"Take off my pants," I told him as he raised an eyebrow.

"I thought you had an eye out for Y/N? Now me? I'm quite flattered a-"

"Not that, you idiot," I groaned. "I meant so we can actually see what fits us," I explained as he nodded.

"You know, you don't get turned on easily," Jimin stated as I felt like he would be talking about this for a while now.

"And?"

"And, Y/N has given you a boner, multiple times. She's the only one whose gotten you so hard so fast so often," he said as I groaned at the topic he chose to talk to me about.

"So?"

"Why is that?" He asked as I stared at him like the idiot he is.

"She turns me on, why else would that happen?"

"Woah, this is the first time you are talking to me about something sexual so openly," he said with a surprised smile.

"Because you find every way to make things like this absolutely strange and absurd, just like now," I sighed as I tugged my pants off, Jimin undoing his as well.

"You're the one who shows no excitement for clubs or bars," he explained as I shrugged.

"I don't care for seeing naked or half naked women throw themselves at me while drunk or sober. It doesn't do anything but irritate me when they cling," I said as I pulled on the leather pants and Jimin wore the same ones.

"What about Y/N?" He asked with a cheeky smile.

"What about her?"

"Would you want to see her half naked or naked?"

"I sure as hell wouldn't mind."

"What about if she threw herself at you?"

"When that day comes, I'll keep her in my hold."

"What about if she's drunk or sober?"

"I'll always appreciate her presence with me."

"And if she clung to you?"

"I'd do the same."

"Woah, tiger! Look at you with so much interest towards her! You laid your eyes on her when we entered the building, but turned away when you saw the man with her. But then he started screaming about them being besties and your interest returned, to find out she's a virgin! And then what's next? You even got a teaser of a lap dance! On top of all of that, you know she likes all of us since she couldn't keep her excitement in with her bestie when they were next to us. Plus, she wouldn't stop gushing on about you, then she compliments your di-"

I let Jimin rant on as we changed back into our normal pants, the door opening and Y/N walked in with more stuff in her arms for us to look at if we wanted.

"Ah, were you talking about me?" She asked as she hadn't noticed we were still in the process of putting our pants on.

But, fuck.

Those legs.

"Hot damn, that dick sure is sexy," she breathed out as she stared directly at me. "I mean, your thighs are great too," she turned to Jimin as he chuckled.

"No, no, you can stare at Yoongi all you'd like, don't worry about me," he laughed, as he went through the stuff Y/N had picked out.

"Oh, I will," she winked at him, not caring that I was standing there as she bluntly talked about me. "I mean not stare at his dick of course, I mean I obviously will because daaaayyyuuumn!" She slapped her thigh before coughing and standing straight again. "I'll just do it when you don't know," she turned to me as she blew me a kiss, winking as she turned around to leave the room. "Come on boys! Look at whatever else you want to get!" She waited for us to get out so we could look around.

She really is something.

No one has ever been that bold, in general.

Then to me?

Yeah, not unless you had a death wish.

Yet despite the lavish life she lived, there was something she's uneasy about. Always on edge, prepared to attack.

There was always a dark undertone to her humor, the comments she made or if she muttered something under her breath.

She was strong as hell, no denying that, our manager showed us her entire training profile and videos and images of her fights.

Her reflexes were lightning fast, her instincts and gut lead her way, and it seemed as though she had heightened senses.

But then there was her parents.

Just the mention of them and she'd be on her knees and trembling.

What is it about them that they can bring a goddess like Y/N down and bend her to their will?

Why did she say all of our names when she was sleeping?

I tried to wake her up but she wouldn't budge so I just pulled her close to me in a way to comfort her.

Her face was scrunched up as she was in pure terror and pain at some horrifying sight she had seen.

But what?

And who's the reason for that?
