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

❤ 13 ❤

Nyx's POV

After the shower I look at myself in the mirror. My body is littered with big yellow bruises. I softly touch one with a finger but the pain is non-existent. I need to get ready so I brush my hair, and dress in the magenta colored baby doll style lingerie set, it ties in the front and is almost see through. It's a risk wearing this with the prospect of Namjoon touching it. Or maybe it rips when he just looks at it. 

Why the hell did I challenge her? It's not about winning for me. I just needed her help, but I couldn't ask for it. Feeling guilty about Tae, I can't look her in the eyes. Sitting down on my bed I let my head drop into my hands, elbows on my knees. Should I go down? Do I want to know if he is like Nigel? 

A knock on the door pulls me out of my reverie, calling for whoever to enter, the door opens and Jimin is standing in the doorframe. "Can I come in?" He smiles sweetly at me and waits for my nod. He closes the door and comes to sit next to me on the bed. I turn more his way, fully aware how I look, but pretending I'm wearing more decent clothes. 

"Did you enjoy today?" And he looks at me studying my eyes. "I did. Poor Jin though." I laugh and he chuckles. "You're not in too much pain?" He questions next looking concerned at the yellow bruises visible on my leg, just below the Kitsune tattoo. He's sweet, but I can't help it and laugh and he looks confused. 

"This is nothing. I don't feel them. I've had worse, more times than I can count. Don't worry. I'm perfectly fine." But he looks shocked at my statement. I pat his hand and want to get up. He grabs my arm, not hurtful, so I halt and look at him. 

"What do you mean?" And searching his eyes I see he's determined to get it out of me so I give in. I sit back down and take his hand. "My ex wasn't a very nice boyfriend. A very violent one. So," and I shrug my shoulders, "I'm quite used to pain. So much so I really don't feel the lesser ones like the bruises." 

He closes his mouth and his whole vibe changes, but I don't feel fear. Funnily I feel safe. Very safe. He searches my eyes and I don't know what he's looking for but I stare back into his. I can drown in his, even through a screen. And that smile just makes me melt.

He isn't smiling now, wondering what he's thinking about. Suddenly he hugs me and pulls my head to his chest, softly stroking it. He doesn't talk and I don't need him to. This is nice. Who am I kidding? This is heaven, wrapping my arms around his waist I hug him back and sink into his warmth, body and what he gives silently. 

I remember Nari is probably already downstairs and waiting for me. I gently pull out of the hug and he lets me. "I'm sorry, but Nari is waiting for me." He smiles, and gets up, pulling me with him. He looks me down and up, "of course" he smirks. 

I slap his arm and he chuckles as he walks to the door, he opens it, looks back at me, "you coming?" And he points at the door. "You go ahead. I need a minute." I answer and he waves goodbye as he smiles his crescent smile for me. 

I sit for a minute more and analyze the feelings running through me during the hug and after, like now. Only Nari knows about Nigel and now Jimin. But somehow I don't mind. After next week I'll never see him again. And that makes me sad. 

Taking a deep breath I get up and leave my room. Skipping down I see Taehyung coming out of his room. When he sees me, he looks down and steps back into his room, closing the door. I don't let it bother me, I don't have the time now, and walk down the second staircase. 

Jin, Jungkook, Hoseok, Yoongi and Namjoon are all staring at Nari, sitting seductively in a chair. I grind my teeth in annoyance and stand next to her. Everyone is fixated on Nari, I mean the eyes switch to me but they stray back to her.
