Not What We Expected.

Listen To Me (Pt. 2)

"Yes hyungie I know what sleep paralysis is! It wasn't that. I was awake!" Jungkook yelled.

"That's what it is though. You're awake but you're not. Think about it Jungkook, you have been stressed out since we got here. You've had a fever all day, are on medicine, and we're in a creepy old house and it's storming outside, and you were in here... alone..." Taehyung tried to hide the guilt in his voice. "Your mind is playing tricks on you. It was a nightmare. Nobody else is in this house but us and nobody is going to hurt y-" he continued saying reassuringly, until Jungkook cut him off by yelling.

"I know what I saw, okay! I was awake! I felt someone touching me! Do you think I'm lying?!" There was panic in Jungkook's voice as he looked around to meet the eyes of all his hyungs. He didn't know what he'd do if none of his members didn't take him seriously. He was sure of what he had seen.

"Nobody says you're lying. We believe that you saw something and it scared you, but what Tae-Tae is trying to say is that it was more than likely just a dream," Jimin reassured.

A question popped into Hobi's head. "You said you felt someone touch you?"

"Yes, first on my chest and then on my back. I was awake, I know someone was touching me but when I looked nobody was there. I'm telling you guys the truth , it happened when I was awake!!" He stared at them with pleading eyes.

Hobi had a thought. "Maybe it was Namjoonie? He could have come down to check on you but maybe you were too out of it to realize it until after he left?"

"Where is he anyway? It's not like him to not come down here, especially when Jungkook's screaming would wake the entire neighborhood, if there was one!" Jimin tried to make a light joke.

"What if the thing in this house got him too?! We have to go check on him!" Jungkook shot up off the couch ready to run upstairs, but Jin blocked him and put his hands on the maknae's shoulders, gently pushing him back down onto the couch.

"I'll go check on him, I think you need to try and rest," Jin said with a slightly concerned expression.

Jungkook sat back on the couch and sighed. Unfortunately for him, he had to respect whatever Jin asked or told him to do, as he was the oldest of the group.

Jin made his way upstairs and remembered where the room was that he had found Namjoon in earlier. He lightly knocked on the door but there was no answer.

"Joonie?" Jin whispered through the door. Still nothing. He slowly opened the door and turned on the light inside the room. Nothing out of the ordinary. Namjoon was asleep in his bed with ear plugs in. He slept with ear plugs in quite often, a habit he developed after using them on planes and in hotels. That explains why the screaming didn't wake him up.

Jin shook Namjoon's arm to wake him, he felt bad waking him up at this hour but also knew Jungkook wouldn't calm down until he knew he was okay and wasn't attacked by some exploding black hole.

Namjoon took out his earplugs, turning to Jin. "What is it? What time is it?" he looked out the window to see it was still dark outside and still storming.

"It's almost four in the morning," Jin replied.

Namjoon felt a bit of annoyance run through him. "May I ask why you're in here?"

"Did you happen to go downstairs at all after we went to bed and check on Jungkook?" Jin asked.

"No, was I supposed to?"

Jin's heart sank a little bit. He was hoping he would be able to go back downstairs and tell his maknae that it was Namjoon so he would calm down.

"No, no. You didn't hear him screaming either? He woke up screaming and now he's saying someone was touching him and that he saw some black entity with no face catch on fire and that it was somehow burning him." The more Jin explained it the more he realized Jungkook must have had quite the nightmare.
