SEVEN PLUS ONE (Jungkook ff)

THREE: A day well ended...?!

"Ha! Unbelievable!" Jimin grunted, his frustration evident as they entered their room.

"Seriously! Who in the hell gives such short notice? It's unfair!" Jungkook added, sharing Jimin's sentiment.

"Well, at least he told us we can work in groups with our dorm members. Look on the bright side!" Taehyung chimed in, closing the door and hanging the keys on the hanger.

"Exactly! I'm actually happy about that!" Ara exclaimed, throwing herself onto the bed. "No more dealing with strange and creepy people!"

"What do you mean 'more'?" Jimin looked at her in disbelief, opening the door to the washroom.

"Smart people don't need explanations!" Ara smirked, satisfied with her response.

"That's a good one!" Jungkook laughed, joining Ara in teasing Jimin and bumping fists with her.

"Guys!" Taehyung interrupted. "It's 10:30! We should get some sleep. We need to start practicing tomorrow, you know."

"Copy that!" Jungkook agreed, plopping onto the bed and pulling the duvet over himself.

"Goodnight, guys!" Taehyung said as he switched off the lights.

As they drifted off to their dreamlands one by one, Jimin opened the bathroom door, not expecting what he was about to see. "Bah!" he screamed.

"What? What happened?" A startled Taehyung instantly got up and asked.

"Why are you standing like that in front of me?" Jimin questioned Ara, who was standing by the bathroom door, her hair all messed up like Medusa and covering her face.

"I wanted to use the washroom, idiot!" she answered, her voice slurred. "How long have you been there, anyway?!" She asked, scratching her head.

"Well...", he started, his speech a little hesitant.

"Never mind! Just get out!" She pushed him to the side and went inside.

"How come he has not woken up after such commotion", Taehyung questioned in disbelief, looking at Jungkook, who was peacefully snoring, hugging his pillow.

"Yeah! I wonder too!" Jimin added.

"But, what were you doing inside for so long anyway?! You went inside before i turned the lights off", Taehyung inquired.

"I was, um..."

"You were pretending to be performing at a concert, weren't you?!" He smiled.

"Yeah! You surprisingly know me well!" Jimin softly chuckled, as he said down on his bed.

"Don't worry, one day that will happen for real!" Taehyung said.

"Yeah. I'm looking forward to that day!"

"Yaah!" A voice suddenly screamed, opening the door of the washroom with a bang. "Next time, you use the washroom, make sure to aim inside the pot, you get that?!" She yelled at the top of her voice through clenched teeth, looking at Jimin.

"Um yeah yea, sorry!" He said, giving away an embarrassed smile.

"Yaah!!" Another slurred voice grunted. "Stop yelling!!" Jungkook said, as he rolled over to the other side of the bed, scratching his tummy.

"How does he do that?!" Taehyung asked in complete confusion, looking at Jungkook.

"It's a skill, my man, it's a skill", Jimin answered.

It was 1:00 am, and all of them were finally completely asleep after all the commotion and the drama. Everybody but Ara, who was now wide awake and looking at the ceiling, fidgeting with her fingers. She silently descended down the stairs of the bed, unlocked the lock of the room, took the keys with her and exited. She walked herself towards the terrace of the building and inhaled the fresh air, bringing a huge smile on her face.

"Wow!" She happily exclaimed. "It feels so nice!"

"I know!" another voice chimed in from behind.

"Whoa! You scared the shit out of me!" Ara chuckled, clutching her chest.

"Sorry," he apologized. "I didn't mean to."

"Well, um," Ara began, turning her gaze back to the beautiful scenery before her. "I think we should go back to sleep. You know, we have practice and all." She attempted to walk away.

"Ara, wait!" he pleaded, gently gripping her wrist.

"Taehyung-ah, I'm not interested. Please let go of my hand," she softly requested.

"But we really need to talk about what happened," he continued, his hold on her wrist tender.

"You were the one who ended it! There's nothing to talk about!" she snapped.

"I just want to talk to you, please!"

"Fine! What?! What do you want to talk about?! What couldn't you have said two months ago?!" she retorted, yanking her hand away and storming off.

Taehyung was extremely saddened by what had happened. As he saw her walk away, yet again; his heart broke into a million pieces. All he could do right now was leave her alone.

Meanwhile, Ara, frustrated and sorrowful, walked down the corridor when the sound of loud music vibrated from one of the dance studios. Intrigued, she pushed open the doors, revealing a scene she hadn't expected.

"It's 2:30 in the morning! What are you doing here?" she asked, a smile forming on her face as she entered the room.

"Practicing!" the voice replied, huffing, turning down the volume of the music.

"Is it okay if I join you, Jungkook?" She asked. "Would love to see how we work together as a team...."

"Absolutely!" he smiled warmly in response.
