The tension that was growing within the house seemed to have subsided, and everyone was in a good mood for the first time since they started this entire trip. Everyone grabbed a bowl of the ramen Jin and Yoongi had made and gathered around the table to eat. They began to play random games to entertain themselves, starting with charades, which somehow turned into everyone singing and dancing around the table.

"We should go check out the lake after. Maybe we could swim? We haven't gone back there yet and the weather seems nice enough." Hobi loved swimming and wanted to swim at least once before they left their trip in a little over a day. Everyone agreed to the idea.

Namjoon looked over at Jungkook. "Ah Jungkook-ah, you remember our rule?"

"Never go near water when I'm by myself, and if I'm near water I need to stay within arms reach of someone, I know." He rolled his eyes, but was slightly happy to see his hyungs protective side come out again, as were the rest of the members.

"Aren't we suppose to wait like half an hour or whatever before swimming after eating or don't you like die or something?" Jimin was trying to be comical.

"You won't die but you get cramps. He's right though we should wait a little bit before swimming, we could just hang in here for a bit first," Jin suggested. After eating the members all cleaned up after themselves and headed back to the living room.

Namjoon ran upstairs to grab one of his books, and gathered back on the couch. Jungkook sat down next to him and asked to see what book he was reading now.

It was some poetry book, which Jungkook decided he wasn't interested in hearing about. He grabbed the book out of Namjoon's hands and began to run away with it. The members all watched to see how their leader would react. They knew Jungkook was just being silly for attention, but did Namjoon know that?

Namjoon never got up from the couch, "Ah Jungkook! I'm too full of noodles for this!" he said while laughing. Jungkook was laughing too, and placed the book on the table that was in the living room.

Taehyung and Jimin smiled at each other, they were happy to see Namjoon truly was himself again.

The members decided to play more games in the living room, they had found some board games in a cabinet under the TV. One that caught their interest was Battleship. They paired up, Yoongi chose Jungkook, Jimin chose Taehyung and Jin, and Hobi chose Namjoon. They played a few rounds, and Jungkook was getting disappointed because his team kept losing.

Namjoon saw the disappointment on Jungkook's face. " How about one more round?" he suggested. They played again and this time Jungkook and Yoongi finally won the game.

"Wait! I have another idea!" Jin said. His ideas were usually pretty ridiculous, so the members were already laughing at him.

"We have never been in this house before, ya? And half the rooms we haven't looked in, right?" Jin began.

"Are you saying you want us to explore the house or something?" Yoongi asked.

"No! Even better, we should play hide and seek!"

An "ooooOOOooOO" echoed among all the members. They all thought it'd be fun.

"You can either choose to hide alone or hide with a partner," the oldest explained, "One condition though..."

Everyone was listening to Jin intently. "I get to be the first seeker, hide by the time I get to 50..GO! One! Two-" Jin began counting immediately.

All the members scrambled to their feet and began trying to find places to hide.

Yoongi ran into a room alone and crawled under the bed, Jimin decided to follow Taehyung and they ran upstairs and hid in the bathtub.

"Joonie-hyung wasn't kidding when he said this was disgusting." Jimin looked around at all the stains and dirt on the walls.
