Arms wrapped tightly around Y/n's middle while her feet dangle a few inches above the ground, Kim Taehyung quickly carries her down the flight of slippery stairs.
Usually, Y/n will not appreciate being manhandled like this. But being taken down to safety while a wild storm rages around them, she will make an exception.
She has never willingly let anyone come as close to her as she had allowed Jimin. And a very secretive part of her likes Jimin's handling and control. This, however, is a life-and-death situation.
Her dress is long and the stairs are wet. Taehyung's grip on her is the only thing that is keeping her from stumbling down the stairs and breaking a bone while also preventing her from falling out of the ship and into the strong, raging storm ahead.
For that, she is extremely grateful.
The tall man descends the stairs while he keeps her safe and close to his broad chest. The Black Pearl is in chaos. The rain patters heavily and the sailors are shouting left and right as they let down the sailcloth and cut off any extra weight. Every job is important for everyone to survive and they work together seamlessly.
Y/n has always admired their teamwork and the hard work Jimin has put into creating a home for every sailor here.
She looks up when she hears a feminine voice call out her name from the deck and spots Yeonjun speed walking towards them while carrying Yuna on his shoulder like a sack of potatoes.
And Yuna is not making it easy for him. She squirms around in the young boy's hold, and continuously pounds her small fists on his back to let her down or at least carry her like a normal human being would.
Yeonjun however has made himself deaf to her complaints, a mischievous smirk on his lips as he strides towards them like he has no plans to let her go. Seeing as how much she already despises his inflated ego and lack of manners, and now this, it's probably not going to earn him any points with her.
Watching the scene, Y/n feels for the girl. She also feels very grateful that Taehyung is not dangling her onto his shoulder like she is a speck he could easily handle.
Taehyung halts at the small curved hall leading to Y/n's room under the stairs, turning his body towards Yeonjun who soon comes to a stop in front of him. The boy silently hands Yuna over to the older sailor, who easily shifts and tucks Y/n under his one arm while he does the same to Yuna on the other.
Alright. Scratch what Y/n said a minute ago.
Bend in half while her ribs dig into Taehyung's forearm, her wide eyes shift from the wet ground and meet Yuna's baffled ones at the staggering audacity and the serious lack of shame.
They look like a pair of lambs who are about to be hung up for sacrifice.
Taehyung grins large at Yeonjun before nodding at him and then turning around to walk towards Y/n's room. He quite literally kicks the door open and walks straight towards the bed.
