Whiskey and Tangerines

Yoongi, Whiskey and Tangerines

There is a knock at Yoongi's door he goes and opens it just a crack and sees it's Taehyung. He opens the door to let him in.

"We want to know if you'll go with us to get something to eat before we shop, Alex?" he asks her.

Yoongi asks, "Who all is going?"

Tae says, "Besides you two, me and the others."

You look at Yoongi worried as you tenderly touch the bruises on your face, "I don't think I can go anywhere looking like this no matter what I wear."

Tae smiles and says, "Not to worry," and as if on cue there is a knock at the door and he opens it. In walks J Hope with one of the makeup artists carrying her makeup kit. 

J Hope smiles saying, "She can hide or make bruises. She can even cause makeup that looks like wounds." J Hope grimaces, "Oops sorry."

"It's ok, I know how I look." You tell him.

She gives you a friendly smile and introduces herself then takes your hand, "Come, sit over here with me." 

You go with her and she starts taking out various compacts and brushes out of her makeup kit. It wasn't long before she smiled triumphantly and declared, "All done." 

She starts to pack her things up apologizing, "Sorry there wasn't much I could do about your lip, but it doesn't look as swollen now." 

She hands you a mirror and you are amazed at the transformation. Other than a slight pouty bottom lip no bruises or marks were visible.

Jimin being flirty says, "You are so cute with a pouty lip, just like me." His sweet sense of humor has you laughing. 

Yoongi's heart skips a couple of beats at the beautiful sound of your laughter. J Hope walks the make-up artist to the door and tells her, "Thank you so much Noona, she looks beautiful." 

She says, "She always did, I remember her." She leans close to J Hope and in a conspiratorial  whisper says, "I have connections if you need help with whoever did that to her."

J Hopes eyes widen in surprise and he stutters, "Um, I, Um, thank you, I will keep that in mind." She turns and leaves.

 J Hope smiles facing you as he begins to close the door commenting, "Alexandra you look beautiful. Are you hungry?"

 Before the door closes Jungkook slips in answering the question, "Yes, I am. Very hungry." 

Everyone laughs and your stomach grumbles causing them to laugh even harder, sending Jimin to the floor at your feet.

Smiling at you Yoongi says, "Go and get dressed.  We will be waiting for you."

You take the dress bag into the bathroom with you and they sit around chatting waiting for you to come out. 

There is another knock at Yoongi's door. He looks around the room and figures out who it could be he says, "Ah that should be Jin-hyung and Namjoon."

He opens the door and they come in smiling. Jin asks, "Did she like the clothes? Do they fit?"

Yoongi says, "She is getting dressed now, thank you Jin for your help." 

Jin slightly blushes recalling the whole thing about getting undergarments. He sheepishly says, "Oh, um you're welcome." His cheeks turning slightly pink.

 He quickly looks at Jimin to give him the evil eye that he better not say anything. Jimin just winks and gives him a cheeky grin.

Namjoon informs them, "I have reservations set up for us.  Our driver should be pulling up any minute now." 

You come out of the bathroom and not a word is said as you look amazing. Yoongi stands up and starts towards you when Tae reaches you first, "Wow, you look so much more like yourself, Alex, beautiful." He smiles his boxy smile and holds out his arm to escort you out.

Yoongi steps between you and Tae and takes your arm instead. Tae smiles and steps back. The others share a knowing look and grin.

Yoongi whispers in your ear, "You do look beautiful."

Later that evening everyone is heading to their rooms. They have an early day in the morning for a photo shoot. 

You look up at Yoongi and question him, "Where do I go? I don't have a place to stay."

It's just you and Yoongi left standing in the hall.  He steps closer and starts to speak.

"Alexandra . . ." he pauses, tips your face up to his. Looking into your eyes he gently runs his thumb over your bottom lip. You slightly gasp at the touch, but not from pain and he leans down and very gently kisses you.

With a breathy voice, he says, "I've missed you so much, please stay with me."

Blushing you ask, "Yoongi?" You are unsure he is asking what you hope he is.

He smiles and takes your hand in his "You are the other half of me. I need you and now that you are back in my life, I'm never letting go. You will always have a place, with me." 

You smile up at him you shyly ask, "You need me?" 

You willingly follow him as he leads you to his bedroom door, "Yes, I need you." He says then kisses you before opening the door to walk you in. He closes the door never taking his eyes off of you.

You can feel the tears of joy filling your eyes. He pulls you into his arms and gently kisses your lips, "I love you jagi."

Your heart soars, he needs you but most of all he loves you, "I love you too," you confess.

You both say in unison, "I never stopped."

 Surprised at each other you both laugh then you notice the smoldering look in his eyes and you feel your body respond.

He pulls you to his bed and you lose yourself in the scent of Yoongi, whiskey, and tangerines.
