"She's not yours to have." Taehyung sneers at him.
"Yours. Mine. Ours." Jungkook shrugs as he fixes her hair tie on his wrist.
Taehyung's eyes stare at the tie in his possession before glaring at him.
"Either way, we both know I'm not going anywh...

"She's an Echo." Taehyung tells everyone as they sit at the dinner table.
The day has been more or less normal. Save for Taehyung discovering and testing out that one piece of information.
After Genesis blew out the lights in his room, he grabbed a box of bulbs from his nightstand and watched as she repeated her actions. She lit every lightbulb in excess, shattering them all over his floor.
He asked if she could 'do it less' or 'tone it down' to which she replied she didn't know how to do that.
Hoseok has no reaction to the information, having already known. Seokjin and Jimin stop eating as they stare at Taehyung. Jungkook smiles proudly as he looks at Genesis.
"You blew the lights out last night?" He asks.
"Yeah.." She says as she looks down at her food. "I'm sorry for pushing you away yesterday." She apologizes. "I didn't know what I did when those guys disappeared. I was scared that if I touched you... or if you touched me..." She shakes her head.
"Hey." He says as he grabs her hand. "It's okay, Gen."
"I didn't want you to go away." She tells him.
"I'm not going anywhere. Where am I going, huh?"
I love you.
Jungkook grins at her as his cheeks warm. "Freaky."
I love you too, Gen.
Taehyung looks at their intertwines fingers and inhales deeply. He looks away before sighing. His fingers tap against the tablecloth before he places his hands in his lap.
They clench, balling into fists as breathes in and out.
"Jungkook." He stands up from the table and walks out of the dining room.
Jungkook sits up in his chair and looks at him.
Now.
Genesis looks between him and Taehyung as she chews her eggs.
"I'll be right back, doll." He kisses her hand and she nods as he gets up from the table.
Jungkook follows Taehyung into the foyer but they keep walking past that point. They walk into a room used as an office and close the door behind them.
Can she hear us in here?
Jungkook shakes his head.
"Good." Taehyung replies out loud. "Because can you back off with the touching?"
"Mmm no. Why would I do that?"
"I am in pain, Jungkook. And it's really not helping that I have to watch you be perfectly fine with her. That's not fair!"
"I mean, I've never made her pass out from lack of oxygen or have an affair with a psycho mistress whose family was out to kill her so.. eh." He weighs his hands up and down.
