Bright As Fire

Part 6...

Yoongi's POV

I had my hands balled up into fist's at my side, my nails digging into my plams.
This wasn't happening. This couldn't be happening!
I stared at the woman in front of me, her eyes studying me in a very unnerving way.
Everyone was looking around unsure as we stared at each other. Jungkook was the first to break the tense silence.

"So!" We all whipped our heads around at the sudden noise. "You two are dating? Great we should all hang out and..."
Jungkook glanced over at Jin and stopped himself. The elder looked as though he'd been struck across the face, I couldn't help but feel a bit of sympathy for him. After all Namjoon and Jin where close and the fact that he wasn't told about this confused me a little.

Namjoon cleared his throat with an awkward smile on his face and slid his arm around her shoulders. "Yeah, we are. I was gonna tell you guys but..." He glances my way and lowers his head, "it was never the right time." Minha, now Namjoon's girlfriend, moved in closer to his touch. I caught her eye as she began to stroke his collar and the side of his neck, occasionally catching on a the taunt vain she found there.

I tried to calm down, I could feel myself starting to sweat, droplets gathering beneath my the folds of my jacket. I was starting to get the feel of familiar territory here, she was playing with me and trying to get me to react. She always loved her games but if she wanted to play a game with me fine, I'll let her have one last game and this time I'll be the one to win.

I tried to be as casual as I could be, with my hate hammering in my chest slowly heating my blood up to boiling point."So how long have you guys been dating then, you seem very..." I looked at her with a lazy expression, trying not to seem to interested. "..comfortable." This only made her smile, it was a sweet smile that one would expect from a young woman who was around new company but I seemed to be the only one who could see what lay underneath, it was the grin of a malicious snake.

"Oh we are, he's told me so much about you guys I just had to meet you all." She turned to face me, tilting her head like a buzzard eyeing up its food. "And I'm so fortunate to see Yoongi again. It looks like you've been keeping well, which is a change I wasn't expecting-"
"What's that supposed to-" I caught her mid-sentence but she raised her hand to stop me and carried on as if I hadn't spoken. No one seemed to notice my discomfort as I glanced around the room... apart from Jimin. We made eye contact and for a moment I forgot about everyone else. That was the reason I was here in the first place I was on my way to talk to him about our kiss. How he pushed me against that wall, how I ran my hands over his body like it was some inner instinct I couldn't control, the way he had looked at me. The way he was looking at me now...

He gestured with his head towards the kitchen, I nodded slightly and followed him in while quickly glancing back at Minha who was laughing at Jungkook showing off one of his dance moves as the others also tried to get her attention, except Jin who was leaning against the far wall looking down at has shoes with a oddly blank look on his face.

Once Jimin reached the back of the kitchen he sighed and ran has hand through his hair, I jumped up on the counter in front of him, my hands firmly gripping the edges at my sides, I didn't exactly know how he wanted this to go so I waited expecting him to say something but he didn't. The long pause was making me nervous, I bit at my lip and shifted my weight slightly from side to side as we both continued glancing at each other.

"I'm sorry." He said finally with another sigh. "I didn't think back there.. I was just.. I just.." I didn't know why but I felt a bit sorry for him, he looked how I felt. Confused, a little nervous and just overwhelmed by the whole thing. Today had started how every other day here started, come to work, set up the shop, talk about who's more likely to beat who at Mario Kart (my money was on Jin) and this whole thing with Minha, I shock my head about to say something but Jimin beat me to it. "I like you, Yoongi!"
