BTS+BLACKPINK step sister(hold)

CHAPTER-49

YN's smile fades instantly. Her playful demeanor vanishes, replaced by her usual cold, distant expression.

Lisa: (raising an eyebrow) Well, that's new.

Jungkook: (softly) I didn't know YN could laugh like that.

YN avoids their gazes, walking over to the kitchen counter to grab a glass of water. IU and Jongsuk exchange awkward glances before quietly following her.

IU: (whispering) Why did they all go quiet?

Jongsuk: (shrugging) Maybe they've never seen this side of YN before.

Jennie: (breaking the silence) So... you do know how to smile.

YN: (coldly) I don't owe anyone an explanation.

IU gently places a hand on YN's arm, trying to calm her.

IU: YN, it's okay.

Jongsuk: (grinning) We're just surprised. They probably thought you were a robot.

Jin: (snorting) Honestly, that's not far from the truth.

YN shoots him a glare, but Jongsuk laughs, lightening the tension.

Jongsuk: Come on, let's eat. I'm starving.

The group slowly gathers around the table. The atmosphere is still tense, but there's a subtle shift. BTS and Blackpink members exchange curious glances, trying to process what they just saw

Later that evening, the family heads out for dinner at a nearby restaurant. The tension from the morning has lessened slightly, but the air remains cool. YN walks beside Lisa and Jungkook.

Lisa: (smiling) This place looks fancy.

Jungkook: I just hope the food's good.

As they settle into their seats, a group of guys at a nearby table starts whispering and glancing over at Lisa. One of them, clearly emboldened, stands up and approaches their table.

Random Guy: (to Lisa) Hey, you're really pretty. Want to join us?

Lisa's expression turns uncomfortable. She glances at YN, unsure how to respond. YN's gaze sharpens instantly, her cold aura intensifying.

YN: (coldly) She's not interested.

Random Guy: (grinning) I wasn't asking you.

Jungkook tenses, ready to step in, but YN raises a hand to stop him. She steps forward, her eyes locked on the guy, her tone like ice.

YN: (calmly) I said she's not interested. Leave before I make you regret it.

Random Guy: (chuckling) And what are you gonna do? You don't look that tough.

YN takes a step closer, her eyes piercing.

YN: (softly) Try me.

The guy falters, sensing the intensity behind YN's words. The cold, commanding presence she exudes is enough to make him rethink his actions. He steps back, muttering something under his breath before returning to his table.

Lisa lets out a relieved breath, her shoulders relaxing.

Lisa: (softly) Thank you.

YN: (shrugging) No one messes with my people.

Jungkook grins, clearly impressed.

Jungkook: Remind me never to get on your bad side.

Jennie: (smirking) I think we're all on her bad side.

Rosé: (teasing) Except for Lisa and Jungkook, apparently.

YN: (deadpan) Keep it that way.

The group chuckles, the ice breaking slightly as they continue their dinner. For the first time, there's a sense of camaraderie, even if it's faint. YN remains cold and distant to most, but her fierce protectiveness shows a glimpse of the warmth she hides deep down.

The family returns to the villa. BTS and Blackpink members sit around the living room, scrolling through their phones or sipping tea. YN quietly sits beside Lisa, her expression calm but unreadable.

Taehyung: (breaking the silence) YN... why are you only nice to Lisa and Jungkook?

YN glances up, her eyes cold.

YN: I don't need a reason.

Jimin: (softly) Maybe we want to get to know you too.

The room falls silent. BTS and Blackpink members exchange looks, unsure how to continue. Lisa gently nudges YN.

Lisa: (smiling softly) Maybe it's time to give them a chance.

YN sighs, leaning back on the couch.

YN: We'll see.
