It had been a week since the convenience store attack and Demi had been released from the hospital much to her relief.
Since then, there had been several robberies and crimes in the area. Banks, stores, and even convenience stores like where Namjoon works were targeted. A 'N' scratched at every location was the only evidence left behind. Whoever was conducting these attacks had a team and a smart one at that. No solid evidence was left behind and the cameras were of no use either, since someone had hacked the systems for every robbery. Namjoon would hear all about this on the news. Each reporter weighing in their opinion on who the mysterious criminal could be... Though each location held an engraved 'N' he knew exactly who it was, but the obvious choice of the letter was still a mystery to him. It was when he was with Demi and Jin still watching the news in his apartment when his phoned dinged.

It seems like the news can never get it exactly right. I have a feeling they'll catch on soon enough. See you soon N.

The blood drained from Namjoon's face as Tao's plan dawned on him. He knew that turning on Tao would eventually come back to him, but he didn't think it'd be this bad. And this was only the beginning.

Demi watched as Namjoon's eyes widened. Suddenly he rose from his seat and began dialing numbers and calling people like a madman. Jin's eyes widened and he immediately ran to the kitchen. About an hour later Demi was still seated in Namjoon and Jin's apartment along with nineteen boys, seven of which she was familiar with. All of the new faces seemed to be around the same age as her and the boys. It also seemed like each boy had some sort of history with her friends. Namjoon finally had stepped forward along with a comically short boy with pink hair.
All of the conversations had suddenly shushed and people had stopped munching on the snacks and sandwiches Jin had laid out, attention fully on the two very different boys.
"As all of you know, there is a huge possibility that Tao has come back-"
"And what does that have to do with us? I don't want to waste my time on a big maybe. Just because your little girlfriend got hurt doesn't mean we have anything to worry about!"
Several boys murmured in agreement, eyeing Demi warily. Demi on the other hand only crossed her arms over her chest.
In any other situation both Demi and Namjoon would have blushed, maybe trying to laugh the thought of them being a couple off. But this was a serious matter.
Namjoon glared at the boy who interrupted him, the boy glaring back.
"Okay, you want the truth!? This isn't a huge maybe! Tao is planning something and it starts by picking me off. Knowing Tao, he wants vengeance against everyone who turned against him. That is all of you."
Namjoon gestured to each boy, stopping at the one who had called out.
"And that includes you GD."
GD only huffed in response, not sparing a second glance in Namjoon's direction.
As Namjoon continued explaining the dilemma, Demi was completely focused on GD. He had a dark aura. a dangerous aura to be exact.
He wore a dark hoodie and hung his head most of the meeting. His bright colored hair hung loosely from under the hood. Demi had caught a glance at his facial features when he had interrupted Namjoon before, he was handsome to say the least. He did seem older though... She had been staring when he finally looked up. Instead of becoming flustered she only looked on as his eyes locked with hers. One of his eyebrows quirked up.
Demi only shrugged, turning her attention back to Namjoon. He was wrapping this meeting up and discussing who would play what part in his plan of defense. The short boy with pink hair, who Demi discovered was named Jihoon, would be in charge of the technical support. He could hack the Pentagon in his sleep and they wouldn't even know it with his skill. Hoseok would be in charge of defensive attacks. Demi was also told that he would teach her a fair share of self defense since Tao already knew her relationship to the boys. That meant possible attacks targeted towards her, and the boys didn't want to risk it. Jungkook, Taehyung and Jimin would be in charge of weapons. Even with their young age they knew way more about weapons than anyone else in the room, Jungkook of course being the most skilled marksman. Yoongi would be the one in charge of stealth. It's said that he can slow his breathing and heart down as if he were sleeping, making it nearly impossible to detect his presence.
Once everyone had left and only Demi and the seven boys remained, Yoongi decided to speak up for the first time that day.
"Demi, we all kinda agreed it would be best if maybe one of us was with you all the time." He spoke tentatively, almost expecting a negative reaction from the girl. She only nodded.
"I guess that makes sense."
All of the boys expected her to put up a fight. Expecting the whole 'A girl needs her privacy' speech.
"Well I guess it's Yoongi's turn to have a sleepover with Demi." Hoseok smirked and laughed. A few other boys joined the laughter as Demi sat wondering if she should have agreed. Meanwhile a couple other boys couldn't help but feel a slight jealousy towards Yoongi.

It was silent in the apartment as Demi and Yoongi awkwardly watched a random show on TV. Both wanted to speak but for some reason it felt like it would become ten times more awkward if the thick silence were to be broken.
"So-"
"So-"
They both had started to speak, only interrupting each other in the process. They looked at each other, amused expressions gracing their faces as their eyes met. Suddenly laughter bubbled up between them and the atmosphere suddenly felt light. Soon they found themselves chatting the night away. They talked about everything they could think of... Some moments were light and filled with laughter, others were serious and solemn. In the end they both enjoyed each other's company and didn't even realize that they fell asleep on Demi's sofa, wrapped in each hand others arms.
