Our Lives Turned Upside Down *A BTS Reverse Harem (On Hold)

❤ 9 ❤

Nyx's POV

It's really early when I get out of bed. Yesterday was fun at the theme park. Nari isolating herself does make me feel irritated at her. And then when I saw Yoongi and her walking together I got jealous. A lot. And it scares me. I've never felt jealous of her. But the way he looked at her hurt. He needs to look at me like that. 

I grab my clothes and get ready in the bathroom to keep quiet. Nari is still sleeping. After returning home yesterday she hid in our room and the guys were sad she didn't join us. Which made me feel annoyed at her. And jealous again. 

Leaving the room I walk slowly down the stairs. Arriving in the main area I see it's still empty. No Namjoon with a book. Entering the pantry I get everything I need and proceed to make breakfast. When it's close to the time the first one will appear soon I switch on the coffee, enjoying the aroma of freshly brewed coffee. 

When everything is ready I set the table and after that, sit down on a stool and read Namjoon's book. I'm so caught up with the story I don't hear the footfalls on the floor. I get pulled out of my trance when I feel a warm hand on the small of my back and my entire body jumps in fright. 

"Good morning Nyx. How long have you been awake?" He questions me as he looks over at the table. "A few hours." I sigh, closing the book and getting off the stool. Grabbing two cups I fill them with coffee and get the milk from the refrigerator. 

He wants his black, but I need the milk. I wish it was hazelnut, but regular will have to do. I'll just add a little more sugar. Placing the milk back, I close the refrigerator door and turn around. Jumping back into the fridge, he's so close. He places his arms slowly next to my head. 

I'm trapped and can't go anywhere, I could duck under his arm, but I don't want too. My mouth dries up as I gasp. He smirks, and my heart rate increases tenfold. I haven't seen this side of him in the house yet. So far he's been nothing but sweet. 

"A little birdie told me you had a fun time gaming." His voice is low, raspy. Shifting on my feet I try to swallow, but it's impossible. As dry as the desert. He nuzzles my neck, and as the tip of his nose skims my skin a shiver travels my spine. 

He lifts his head, lips next to my ear and his breath fans the shell, another shiver, inhaling sharply. "Want to play a game with me too?" He purrs softly, but he is gone suddenly when we hear noises from the stairs. 

Blinking dazily I see him quickly sitting down and just before the interrupter comes into view I've turned around and a third cup is set down next to the two already there. Filling that one as well, I grab the two black ones and turn around. I'm hoping my face isn't as flushed anymore, my heart is still galloping inside my chest. 

The interrupter turns out to be Jin, accepting the cup with a cheery good morning. I set the second cup before Jimin and turn around for mine. I take a sip after putting sugar in and stirring. Turning back to the two silent guys I am surprised Hobi is sitting between them, smiling at me. 

"Good morning. Coffee?" He nods as he greets me back. Slowly the others trickle in and I play barista for all. The last to join us is Nari, and I see the mask and get vexed. Everyone chooses a chair and we sit down to eat. The guys are cheery, happily talking amongst themselves and I don't mingle, just quietly eating my breakfast. But I don't have an appetite so I just fake it. 

"I think we all need a day to relax after yesterday," Namjoon announces when we all are finished eating and I see all nod or agree with a resounding yes. Smiling for the first time today. I could use a day to try and sort through my emotions. I gather the dishes again. 

Jimin jumps up and helps me first. And he's the only one. I don't mind. I like spending time with him, even when we don't talk. There's just something about him that makes me feel safe. I drain the sink after the last plate and watch the water get sucked down. And my emotions feel like that, sucked into a whirlpool. I don't feel like myself.
