Chapter Eleven: Worries
3RD PERSON'S POV

"Is that all?"

Seokjin called out to the younger males as he stood outside their cabin door, the key in his hand.

"Yeah," Yoongi groans while dragging his luggage outside. "We've finished packing."

"Are you seriously going to take that?" Taehyung glanced at the candy bowl that Jungkook was snatching from.

"Hey, it says it's free," the younger defended himself as he showed him the cute little handwritten note by the cabin owner.

"Okay," Taehyung smiled and dragged his luggage outside, placing it beside Yoongi and Seokjin's.

"Tae," Seokjin walked towards him. "Where's the rest?"

"They're coming," Taehyung smiles.

Seokjin nods. It was the next day and they're going back home- obviously -and it felt like the air was cleared. Like nothing happened yesterday. Like it was all okay.

"It took me 13 minutes to wake Park up," Yoongi rolls his eyes. "I better go check if he's not back dozing."

Taehyung nods and opens his backpack, taking out a bag of chips and munching on it.

"Where'd you get that?" Seokjin asked.

"I packed it," the younger male responses.

"Hey, uhm," Jungkook walks toward them, a hand gripping on his backpack strap. "What about Namjoon?"

"What do you mean?" Seokjin raises an eyebrow. "What about him?"

"I mean," Jungkook paused. "Will he ride with us back home?"

Taehyung went in for a chip but soon stopped, eyes darting at Jungkook who looked nervously at him. He felt sad, yes, and he understands why. But he didn't understand. He was confused.

"S-sorry," Jungkook curses himself for stuttering. "I'm just curious how will he go back home when he refuses to talk to any of us."

"Well, he has to stop being immature and at least talk to us on the way home," Seokjin clears his throat. "He can't forever stay silent."

"It's like he blocked us and unfriended us in real life," Jungkook chuckles awkwardly.

Taehyung nods, eyes darting back on the grass. "Totally."

"He is old enough to understand that Taehyung didn't mean for Haeyun to get pushed down the cliff by gravity," Seokjin said.

"But I understand why he's mad," Jungkook's voice felt sharp and painful to Taehyung.

"Of course, I understand as well," Seokjin sighs. "But he can't just shut us off like that. We're still his friends no matter what."

"I guess," Jungkook glances at the cabin door where a tired looking Namjoon exits from. He looked like he didn't sleep all night, he looked creepy.

Seokjin and Namjoon's eyes met and it made the tension even more awkward.

"I-I better go check on the rest," Seokjin clears his throat and walks inside the cabin.
