Across The Fear

41. Just One Day

"Never in my life have I dreaded kids this much." One of the bodyguard's groaned as he saw Jungkook and Yeonjun almost breaking the bowling alley by the amount of time they were smashing the rolling pin on the ground.

On the other hand, the rest of Ben's grandsons, the four babies and Jimin were all over the gaming machines, crazily smashing the buttons harshly and hooting like owls.

The rest four and Claire were crowding over the motor racing machine as Seokjin and Claire were competing, occasionally somewhat throwing insult at each other.
Until Taehyung started fussing about feeling starving and Claire called Taehyung a whiny brat.

Jin's ears perked up at her words and he angrily rotated the wheels so hard that it broke down. Minor sparks spurted as smoke started to seep out of the electronic box. Yoongi and Hoseok were quick to pull the two away from the machine.

"Now you can go eat!" Claire pointed out annoyed at the younger.
The guards ran towards them, seeing the small commotion.
"Ruining things is your speciality........"

"I dare you to finish your words, McTaggart! I dare you!" Seokjin roared at her, scaring her in the process.

"Hyung, we're in public!" Yoongi reminded the older and Kim Seokjin zipped his mouth and glared at Claire. Hoseok could swear he saw smoke coming out of his ears.
He looked back at his girlfriend and warned her in a hushed voice.
"Don't you dare make a scene here. I'll talk to you at home."

He let his hyungs and the bodyguards deal with the mess as he took Taehyung away, wrapping his arm around the younger's waist and walked out of the place.

"And I thought you might have actually changed for better?" Jungkook spoke, appearing behind her out of nowhere as Yoongi and Jin walked away from them and Jimin and his baby chicks following their trails.
Yeonjun's almost snorted at his own silly idea.

"What do you want now?" Claire squinted her eyes at him and he snickered at her fussy attempt of scaring him.

"You think I forgot how you hurt my Jiminie in the library on Valentine's day last year! And since you ruined my birthday outing with my brothers and boyfriend, I'm going to make sure that Hobi hyung definitely knows how upset you made me!"

Jungkook looked at her for a minute and slowly a sad frown grew up on his baby face. His lips slowly quivered and big fat tears started rolling down his puffed cheeks. Claire stood rooted in her place, shook as the younger male suddenly started wailing out loudly.

And just in a few seconds several footsteps emerged out from their hiding. Seokjin and the others also came back running after hearing from the one of the guards.

"Kookie, what happened baby?" Jimin asked, worry latched on his face as he saw the woman still in her place and looking at the maknae with hatred and confusion.
Jimin's jaws tightened as he glared at her with disgust.
He breathed angrily and took away the wailing maknae away from her.
Hoseok looked at the with disappointment.
"I really hope that you have a good explanation on whatever you have been acting up since we came out."

Claire looked at him, her eyes brimming with angry tears glistening. She looked at him for a few seconds and then looked away. She so badly wanted to scream in his face that how much of a lying brat his brother is. But she also knew that Hoseok won't believe anything against any of his siblings.
She wanted to tell him about how his younger brother is picking on her for her long gone past mistakes.

But also she was unable to explain this bubbling feelings that overpowerers his mind when she sees the Sampson siblings happy, content and smiling with whatever they had.
She wants to rip off their smiles, punch in their faces and just throw them into the wall across the room.
