    You had been ignoring Yoongi for two days now. You skipped lectures under the lie that you were sick. Yuri stayed out of your room to prevent her from catching whatever she thought you had and spreading it to Jimin but after sulking around for two days you desperately needed a shower and some food. Slowly stepping out of bed you grabbed a pair of maroon leggings and a black baggy crop top and made your way to your shower. The hot water felt good on your dry and tired skin. After cleaning up and getting dressed you tiptoed to the kitchen careful not to wake up Yuri and Jimin who to your dismay had decided your shared house was a great place for them to do their "business".

    Groaning you slammed the fridge shut not caring about the lovebirds asleep anymore and scribbled a sloppy note saying I'll be back and made your way to the front door to slip on your shoes and head out for your grocery shopping adventure. Headphones on ears, music up high you hummed along to Everglows Dun Dun while walking the busy early morning streets of Seoul. People littered the sidewalks and outside of cafes talking amongst their friends and family or making their way to work and school. It was busy but not loud. Light chatter filled the morning sky as the sun shone brightly blanketing the earth with warmth. It was peaceful. You made a mental note to start doing more walks by yourself to enjoy alone time and clear your head.

    A bell sounded as you pushed open the grocery store door and bowed to the Ajumma at the front counter wishing you a good morning. You grabbed a basket and began filling it with food for you and Yuri making sure to grab plenty of her favorites to avoid her complaints about you shopping alone. After filling two baskets full of groceries, you made your way home to put them away. Yuri and Jimin laid sprawled out on the couch watching some horror movie.
    "Whatcha watchin?" Jimin jumps and screams obviously startled at my voice by his head.
    "Jesus Alex why you gotta sneak up on us like that?" Yuri scolds while tossing a pillow in my direction as I plop down on the sofa adjacent from them.
    "Parasite." I scrunch my nose and head back towards the door not wanting to watch the cringey horror movie.
    "Have fun with that." I say slipping my shoes back on.
    "Alex?" I hum in response to Jimin.
    "What's that in your nose?" I freeze and then look up at the two staring me down and chuckle rubbing the back of my neck.
    "MOON BORA IS THAT A GODDAMN PIERCING?!"
    "WHAT ARE YOU, MY MOTHER?!"
    "Who's Bora?"
    "Shut up Jimin!" Yuri and I both yelled causing him to shut his mouth and turn back towards the tv fast.
    "Yuriiiii you know I hate my Korean name why you gotta call me by my full government name?" I whined sulking at Jimin now knowing my real name.
    "Well maybe if you weren't such a delinquent, I wouldn't have to be your mother Bora!" Yuri giggles while crossing her arms at me.
    "Whatever I'm going out for coffee." I waved her off and left.

    "Alex is Bora?"
    "Oh Jimin, not a thought behind those eyes is there honey?"

    After walking for a while just enjoying the alone time, I spotted a cafe that I haven't been to before. Maybe if I got out more, I'd notice new businesses opening up. Smiling I made my way inside and ordered. After getting my drink and breakfast I sat at an empty table and put my headphones back on. I scrolled through social media taking small bites of my food until my phone was yanked out of my hand.

Yoongi POV
    I sat at a cafe with Hoseok, Jin and Taehyung. Jin made me apologize to Tae after the incident a few days ago. I wasn't one for apologizing, but I guess I did cross a line that day. We sat and talked and had breakfast together, me paying was my "punishment" as Jin and Hoseok says.
    "Isn't that Alex?" My eyes widen and snap up to the short girl that just walked in. Headphones on and not paying attention to her surroundings. Her crop top rose up as she stretched, the hem stopping just under her breasts causing me to frown at two guys who had been staring her down since she walked in. I stayed still wondering if she'd notice me but when she grabbed her things and made her way past our table and to an empty one at the back my frown grew deeper.
    "She's so oblivious someone could kidnap her, and she wouldn't realize it till she was tied up in the van already."
    "Shut up." Jin snapped at Hoseok. Just as I was about to get up and make my way to her table one of the guys who was staring at her beat me to it. A low growl escaped my throat as I watched the blonde skinny guy check his breath before plopping himself down in the seat next to her and snatch her phone out of her hands. I was too far to hear what he was saying but she obviously was pissed at the guy for interrupting her alone time. The guy put his arm around her waist pulling her close to him as he leaned down and whispered something in her ear. That's it I'm done watching this freak show. Calmly I made my way to her table and sat down across from them catching their attention.
    "Can I help you?" The guy asked throwing his arm around Alex as she rolled her eyes.
    "Yeah, you can actually. I was wondering why you think it's okay to bother women who clearly want nothing to do with you?" I leaned my head onto my hands watching his face contort in anger.
    "How about you mind your business and leave my girlfriend and I alone?" The male scoffed.
    "I don't know you, leave-" I watched the guy's hand grip her arm harder causing Alex to let out a whimper. I tried to keep my calm demeanor but not only was this fuckboy touching what was mine but now he was hurting her.
    "It's too early for this. You have 3 seconds to get your hands off of MY girlfriend or your friend over there is going to be taking you to the hospital." I pointed over my shoulder at the guy's friend who's been watching this whole thing play out.
    "Oh really? And what exactly are you going to do?" He smirks at me standing up and closing in on the booth I'm sitting in.
    "Me? Oh, not a thing. However, Alex here doesn't take too kindly to creeps bothering her." I smirk as I watch Alex stand up and innocently smile at the much taller male right before kicking him in his family jewels. Once he dropped to his knees, she twisted her body and brought her foot across his face. That sound was definitely her breaking his nose. She then put her foot against his chest and leaned down.
    "Maybe that'll teach you to stop creeping on women." She gives him a swift kick to the other side of his face before his friend rushes over and literally drags him out of the coffee shop that has now grown silent at the scene in front of them.
    "Mianhae." Alex bows to everyone and sits back down in her booth with her head down. I can hear Hoseoks laugh as Taehyung and Jin clap at Alex putting that guy in his place.
    "You know. It's supposed to be my job to rescue the damsel in distress." I smirk at her as I lean my head closer to her face.
    "If you want some weak priss go call So-Yeon or better yet go talk to Soomi, I'm sure either one would loveeee to be your damsel in distress." Ouch.
    "I deserved that." I pout at her glaring at me from across the booth.
    "I'm sorry. I'm just hurt at the things you said not to mention saying it in front of everyone. You humiliated me and me seem like some sex crazed whore." I frown as I stare at the table and tap my fingers.
    "I know and I'm sorry babygirl. I shouldn't have said those things to you."
    "Not just me, you hurt Tae too. He's your best friend and you're letting some girl come between you two."
    "You're not just some girl Alex. I l-" I stop myself eyes widening as I attempt to redirect my words.
    "I care about you a lot. We all do. Jimin and Yuri both cussed me out when you left, and Jin beat me with a spatula. The rest of the guys basically ignored me the rest of the day and Jungkook even went as far as to pretending I never existed. The boy ate my snacks and my portion of dinner right in front of me while pretending I was invisible." She chuckled at that. Good just make her laugh and smile Yoongi.
    "Are we okay Bora? I don't want to lose you." Her eyes soften at my statement, and she intertwines our hands.
    "We're okay Yoongi. You need to work on your anger issues but I'm not going anywhere." She smiles at me, and I find myself drowning in those vibrant purple irises once again.
    "Good. Now let's discuss why the fuck there's a piercing in your nose."
