Breaking In {BTS In School}

34. Break

"So we finally get to meet you in person. I'm Vernon, your new favourite."

YeongMi chuckled at the outgoing boy.

"Bitch please, I'm her favourite, right Mi." Jeonghan gave her finger hearts and smiled cutely, while Vernon shook his head. "Go pick your nose somewhere else weirdo."

"That was years ago, get over it already!"

"It's okay Vernon, we still love you."

"That's not helping Coups."

"Just eat chicken and forgive each other."

"Joshua, how many times do I have to tell you, chicken doesn't solve everything."

"Not with that attitude, Woozi."

"Just give up, he's never going to learn."

"How do you think you got so tall, Mingyu?"

YeongMi slipped away from the arguing guys, towards a fluffy boy who wasn't talking.

"I don't speak Korean well." Minghao seemed to think he had to explain himself.

"It's okay, I can speak Chinese." He looked at YeongMi in surprise.

They were interrupted by a very handsome boy, who threw an arm around either of them.

"Jun, what are you doing?"

He didn't respond, only ruffled Minghao's hair and smiled slightly, looking off at nothing.

YeongMi didn't understand how Seungkwan could ever focus with all these things going on between all the boys.

She looked over to find her brother and Dino dancing face to face, both looking determined not to be the first to falter.

Competitive losers.

Beside them, DK and Hoshi were cheering loudly, shoving each other and jumping in excitement.

Slipping out of Jun's arm, she walked over to the last boy, standing next to him. She stared down at the water creeping towards her before she glanced over to him.

"You know Wonwoo, you're even cuter in person."

The boy smiled slightly, and YeongMi grinned, patting his shoulder lightly before going to find her diva brother.

She was intercepted by Jeonghan, who pulled her over to S.Coups.

She'd never tell him, as he'd be smug about it, but she really enjoyed his easy affection towards her. It was simple, and comforting. There was no uneasiness to it, nothing uncomfortable.

It was the perfect mix of brotherly affection and friendly, senseless flirting.

It made her feel cared for without the pressures of complicated feelings.

She much preferred it to anything else she'd experienced, as it didn't make her feel guilty or scared.

No, it was natural, simple, and stress free.

"So YeongMi, how's the beast boy doing?"

"Why do you call him the beast boy?"

"Who is the beast boy?"

YeongMi laughed, sitting in front of S.Coups and Jeonghan.

"Beast boy is YeongMi's lover."

"I'm pretty sure the lover term only works if the sex passes 3 times and continues indefinitely."

YeongMi smiled at Jeonghan waving her off.

"And his name is Namjoon, use it. You'll only feed his ego calling him beast boy."

"You ladies talking about me?"

"Hoshi, watch yourself."

"Sorry Jeonghanna, from the back you look like a girl."

"At least I look good."

"You wound me, Hanna."

YeongMi laughed at the boys friendly teasing.

She nearly swore when someone plopped down next to her; she glared at her brother, who was nothing but proud of scaring her.

"I want a nickname too, Hoshi."

"Oh, Seungkwan, you definitely have one." Hoshi grinned secretively, "we just don't use it in front of you."

YeongMi snorted as her brother pouted angrily.

"You're just mad because you were betting that Dino would beat me at girl group dances. And you were wrong." Seungkwan locked eyes with Vernon before grinning. "Like always."

While Seungkwan and Vernon were laughing, Hoshi was looking away, muttering moodily to himself.

"So, not to interrupt this riveting conversation, and really, it is, but does today count as part of your 2 day break?"

"Yes, it does."

YeongMi stared at S.Coups for a moment before promptly standing up, kicking sand onto Seungkwan, who was less than appreciative of it.

She reached for her shorts, pulling at the button when Seungkwan quickly stood up and grabbed her hands.

"Dude, relax," she shoved him away and pulled them off to reveal her bikini. She dropped her shirt down onto the discarded shorts before facing them.

"Well, come on! It's your break, you're at the beach, what were you planning on doing?"

She looked at them expectantly, seeing their hesitation, before laughing.

"Suit yourself, I'll just have fun," she gave them one last look before walking away, "all by myself."

She got about waist deep before she noticed the faint quabbling behind her.

By the time she was swimming, there were distinctive splashes, and they were joining her.
