One by one, the others started reluctantly retiring for the night, the subject of Jasper's appearance still heavy on everyone's mind. However, no one seemed to be sticking to their assigned rooms.

Jae saw Namjoon trudging into his own room saying something to Jin following closely behind, who gave Jae a subtle wink before shutting the door. Hobi and Tae were still in the kitchen as far as she could tell, rummaging for some late night snacks, since they all ended up not eating a proper dinner.

Yoongi also patted Jae on the head as he passed her by before practically dragging a pouty Jimin behind him, eyeing Jae with puppy eyes. She felt her legs start to automatically follow them, but she remembered the promise she made Jungkook so she had to stop herself.

She rubbed the mark which was starting to fade a little on her neck. It felt different than any bruise she's ever had before. It was warmer, and when she put her hand over it she felt fuzzy, but the good kind. Jungkook's door was the only one that was still open down the hall, and when Jae walked to it, she could hear the shower running, and some steam was creeping out from underneath the door.

The image of Jungkook in a hot shower filled her head for a split second and she felt hot herself. Fanning herself with her shirt, she plopped down on the bed and waited for him to get out.

She heard a soft knock on the door, and she groaned to herself a little, as she had just gotten off her feet. She trudged to the door and saw Tae on the other side. Jae also caught a glance of Hobi as he waved her goodnight while yawning. He was the only one who seemed like he was heading to his own room. She heard him coughing again as he shut the door, and reminded herself to check on him in the morning.

"Hey." Tae said with a little smile, well, more like a smirk. She was already feeling hot, he was not making her feel any cooler. Still, she didn't mind as seeing him made her smile effortlessly. "Hi." she smiled, scanning his face, waiting for him to say more.

"So, you're gonna sleep in here tonight?" he asked. Jae nodded, "Mmhm...he asked me to." she trailed off and gestured towards the bathroom, knowing she didn't need to explain further for him to understand. He paused and chewed on his bottom lip before asking hesitantly, "Do you think you guys could make room for one more?"

Jae blinked. Considering Jungkook had a very spacious bed from the looks of it, she knew he would most definitely fit. That being said, she became flustered at the thought of sharing a bed with the two simultaneously. "I think we can squeeze someone else in. Who is it? Namjoon? Jimin? Should I go get them now?" Jae teased as she tried to walk past him, and Tae put his arm on the doorframe, properly blocking her path.

"Ah, come on baby..." He grinned. Her heart pattered in her chest at the pet name. She caught a glance at his arm against the frame. Has he always been this sturdily built? How had she not noticed before? Her eyes sought to meet his, and they ended up staring in each other's eyes for a brief moment.

The little squeaking sound of the shower being turned off filled her ears, which snapped her out of the strange trance she was under. Damn you and your dreamy eyes she thought to herself, peeling herself away. Trying to hide her newly flushed face, she sat on the bed and tried to focus on anything except for Tae. However, that soon proved to be difficult as he stood right next to her, looking down at her.

As soon as she looked up at him, she saw his eyes dart to her lips as he bit his own. Her mind started to feel fuzzy, and just as he was starting to lean down a little, the bathroom door swung open, almost in a hurry. They both turned their heads to see Jungkook, in nothing but a towel.
