The 8 Soulmates (BTS poly ot7xy/n)

시작 Chapter 16

Eventually, Yoongi and Y/n moved to the couch with some of the others. Wrapping themselves up with a blanket and snuggling together wordlessly.
Jimin and Taehyung had been on the couch, but both said they were tired and left to Tae's apartment to sleep.
Everyone could feel the lie through the bond, sure they did feel tired- but the others knew they just didn't want to face Y/n yet.
She felt hurt but ignored them as they left. Her bond with the two weakening slightly as they headed out the door.

Y/n made a mental note to do some more research about soulmate bonds, and if an established bond could break.
  She'd also have to ask Namjoon about it, he seemed like he'd know the most since he usually did.

She pushed herself further into Yoongis chest, small tears falling down her face while he wrapped his arms around her, brushing his fingers through her hair and whispering that she was okay in her ear in an attempt to calm her down.
   She was still upset with all of her soulmates, but the bond felt like it was picking apart her emotions and laying them bare for anyone to see.

She felt a swirl of confusion, anger, and hurt mixing around her head.

Hoseok and Jin made some easy snacks and settled in beside Namjoon and Jungkook on the couch. Putting on a random movie and quietly enjoying each others company for a little while.

None of them speaking, each still reeling at the revelations earlier.
  Some upset Y/n was mad at them, others upset with Tae's behaviour, and one only worried that Y/n would hate him now.

"We're gonna head to sleep. Night everyone." Namjoon said, standing up with Jungkook climbing onto his back. Both gave the others a quick kiss and headed to Jungkook's apartment.

"Mmh we're going to sleep too. Night Yoon, Night Y/n." Hoseok muttered out, giving Yoongi a kiss and Y/n a peck on her forehead.
Yes the two had fully bonded, but it had been out of necessity at the time and Hoseok didn't think this was the best moment to ask Y/n if she was okay if he kissed her lips.
  The little amount of trust they had built with each other was on tittering on the edge right now.

They were all tired and he could wait to ask her for now. Jin sent a smile and followed Hoseok out, leaving a tired cried out Y/n half asleep in Yoongis arms.

"Let's get some sleep Y/n. Do you want to stay here or go back to your own apartment?" Yoongi asked, him and Y/n separating themselves in order to stand up.
"Can I stay the night here... I kinda want to talk with you before going to sleep.." Yoongi nodded.

He didn't want Y/n to be alone with the bonds weakening so much, but he also wasn't looking forward to whatever conversation was about to take place.

"C'mon." Yoongi led Y/n to his room. He wasn't about to make her sleep on the couch, and if she was uncomfortable he'd just sleep on it instead. Any of his soulmates could take his bed whenever they wanted.

"Wear this." He handed Y/n a black hoodie and some blue sweatpants. They would be baggy but should fit her at least.

Grabbing the clothes, she swiftly made her way towards his bathroom and changed. Setting her own down on a chair in his room, folded in a corner.
  By the time Y/n had come out of the bathroom Yoongi had changed as well.

Usually he wouldn't wear a shirt to bed, his room always got hot in the middle of the night, and his blankets did a good job keeping him warm. He'd decided he could deal with the heat for now.

   His bond with Y/n was new, and although she had latched onto him as a starting point when learning about bonds, they still hadn't fully bonded.

  His heart fell a bit. He thought he'd been the first to bond with her, but it was Tae. He didn't understand how neither of them could notice- but then again. He and Y/n hadn't noticed either at first..

"Soo.. you wanted to talk?" Yoongi asked, sitting on his bed with his back against the headboard.
Everything in his room was covered in a layer of darkness, due to the time- and the fact he had dark curtains covering the windows.

Y/n sat on the bed facing him, crossing her legs as she played with her fingers a bit in anticipation.

"If you knew I was your soulmate... why didn't you all just come out and tell me in the beginning? All of you knew my feelings about them and my want to meet them.." Y/n started.

Yoongi sighed, rubbing a hand down his face. "It wasn't that easy Y/n."

She rolled her eyes. Of course it was that easy, what wasn't easy about it?
"We were scared you would reject us once you found out it was us who were your soulmates. We were scared because last year... was tough.. on all of us.." He was trying his best to explain.

"It wasn't right that we weren't immediately honest- but we wanted you to trust us. You wouldn't even tell us how many soulmates you had.."
She slowly nodded her head.
"Some of us... some of us thought you might be ashamed deep down about it.."

Y/n lifted her head up and looked into Yoongis eyes.
"I've never been ashamed of you.. I told all of you before that the reaction i grew up getting wasn't pleasant..."

Her entire life she was excited about soulmates. Marks appeared at different stages of someones life. Some were born with them, some got them as a teen or adult- and some never got one.

"I got my marks when I was 13." She began. "It made me happy to know I had a soulmate- I had seven soulmates. But when I showed my parents.. they were disgusted."

She remembered her mother's look of pure hatred, her fathers tears. "They told me how selfish I was but I didn't let it get to me at first."

"I was a little girl, wearing crop tops and shorts everyday I could, because I wanted everyone to see my soulmate tattoo.. and I got attention."
Yoongi looked at her, eyes full of pity.

"I got the wrong kind of attention."

She remembered men catcalling her, elders calling her dirty names that no child should know the meaning of. It started whenever she walked outside, but escalated to her school.
  Jennie had been the only person at the time who didn't care that she have seven soulmates, she had told Y/n "so what? The more the better~"
  Looking back, now Y/n understood the double meaning behind those words.

"I stopped showing them when I turned 16. Since then I stopped talking about them. So.. all of you hiding this from me.. it hurts..." Y/n finished explaining.

"I'm sorry." Yoongi reached out for her hand, holding onto it as securely as he could.
  "I guess we both have some issues to work past huh.." he joked out.

Y/n smiled, though her eyes welled up with fresh tears. This was the first time she'd opened up about what she'd gone through dealing with her tattoo to anyone.
   She knew she didn't say much, but it was a start and it was a healthy start.

"Can we cuddle?" She blabbered out. Suddenly just wanting his warm embrace.

Yoongi chuckled. "Whatever you want baby." The pet name slipping naturally from his lips while he pulled her closer to his chest.

"Whenever you want to open up to me... you can okay? I'll always be here for you."

She smiled up at him, hardly able to make out his face in the darkness.
"Me too Yoons."
