Mission Impossible: BTS

Chapter 4: I think I'm in love

How did I get stuck in this situation?

I groaned as I wiggled around in the same spot and the cold hard ground (cue Taylor Swift lol) was hurting my tailbone. Suddenly, I felt someone touch my butt from behind.

"I swear, whoever is touching me will lose their hands if they don't remove themselves right now." I growled as my already-pissed off mood got worse.

"Sorry, sorry! Namjoon's foot is pressing on my spine and I had to move! I'm so sorry, please don't cut my hand off!" Jimin squeaked in his high voice, trembling in fear that I will actually do it. I really was considering it, too.

Let me tell you how we got in this dreadful state. Two words -- Uncle Jax.

*FLASHBACK*

"You guys need to work on your teamwork, so I have a VERY FUN exercise ready. Rachel, can you bring it in?" Uncle Jax told us cheerfully, as he clapped his hands together.

Rachel brought in a long rope that was as thick as my fist. I was completely lost. What are we going to with a rope?

"I need you guys to huddle together like cute ducklings and stay still while Rachel ties you guys up tightly." Uncle Jax continued, and we reluctantly gathered in a small circle. Someone was already way too close to me, so I jabbed him in the side and heard a loud grunt. Serves you right.

"Okay, now you need to work together to go across the room to the finish button while you guys are all tied up and escape this room before the time runs out. I'll give you 10 minutes to finish. Remember, use teamwork! The time starts....... NOW!" My uncle shouted, obviously happy with this exercise. The big digital clock projected on the wall started counting down.

9:59
9:58
9:57

All of us immediately started walking, which would have been effective if we weren't walking in our own direction. Before we could take more than 2 steps, the ropes held us back and we tumbled back to our original spots.

Sighing, I cleared my throat and spoke up. "Okay, why don't we all take one step towards the button across the room?  We can take small steps till we are synchronized. Got it?" I turned my head towards them.

The guys nodded and I faced the front again. "Alright, on the count of three, take one small step, ok? 1... 2... 3!" I counted and moved my feet. Surprisingly, we had advanced forward, although the distance was very minuscule. We kept repeating the procedure and soon, we were halfway across the room.

"Okay, only a half way more!" chirped Hoseok, and he did a little fist pump. As he brought his arm down, he accidentally elbowed Jin, who crashed into Namjoon, who then proceeded to fall backwards, causing everyone to drop to the floor like dominoes. 

There were groans and moans as we were piled up in a heap of mess. We pushed against each other as we struggled to sit upright, but the rope was still binding us really tightly. Suddenly, I felt somebody touch my butt from the behind.

"I swear, whoever is touching me will lose their hands if they don't remove themselves right now." I growled as my already-pissed off mood got worse.

"Sorry, sorry! Namjoon's foot is pressing on my spine and I had to move! I'm so sorry, please don't cut my hand off!" Jimin squeaked in his high voice, trembling in fear that I will actually do it. I really was considering it, too.

There was a massive headache coming, and my temple were throbbing. I blew my bangs out of my face and called out loudly to Uncle Jax.

"You said we just have to get to the other side and hit the button, right?" I glared at the one-way mirror facing us.

The intercom came to life as his voice confirmed, "Yes, but the main point is to use team--" but I cut him off. "Got it."

I put my feet down and stood up after quite a few tries. 

"What are you thinking of, Sia?" Jin asked in a confused tone. I gave him a knowing lopsided grin and he gulped audibly.

"Alright, the floor is made out of smooth tiles, so it'll be easy to slide. Hold on tightly to the rope and put your feet up." I ordered. The boys immediately grabbed the thick cord and lifted their legs into the air.

I took a deep breath and started walking forward while pulling the guys behind me. There were yelps of surprise and disbelief as we slowly inched our way across the room. Sure, it wasn't easy pulling 7 guys, but I knew I had enough strength and this would be so much easier than all of us struggling to walk together.

Soon, we reached the button and I didn't hesitate to smack it. The buzzer went off and the time stopped.

1:15.

We had made it.

Wiping the sweat off my forehead, I let out a sigh of relief. Uncle Jax opened the door and walked in with Rachel. She cut the rope quickly in a blink of an eye with a flick of her wrist that held a small pocket knife.

Uncle Jax stood facing me, but he had a frown on his face. I stared back into his dark brown eyes, challenging him to say something.

"Sia. I told you the whole point of this activity was to nurture teamwork in this group. You all have to work together to solve a problem; you can't just go out on your own and expect everyone to follow you." he chastised.

By this time, I was boiling with anger. "You put us in this stupid situation then you expect us to use "teamwork" to do it? The specific order was to go across the room to the finish button before the time is up, and that is exactly what we did. If they didn't like how I solved the problem, sorry but I don't care. If they can't handle me and my ways, we obviously can't work together in a group. I wasn't interested in working with stupid hormonal guys anyways." I fumed as I pointed towards the guys looking at us.

Uncle Jax looked like he wanted to say something but couldn't get the words out. Not wanting to stay here any longer, I walked out the door and slammed it behind me.

"Dang... What a cold woman. It's like she shot right at my heart." Taehyung murmured as he glanced at the door. Jimin patted his shoulder in a comforting way. Tae turned to his friend with a blank look.

"I think I'm in love."
