* Yoongi's P.O.V *

I stood outside my apartment complex in utter disbelief, watching my home be engulfed in flames. I can't believe some idiot decided to sleep while smoking, how the fuck did he not know that the trash bin was right next to his bed, how does an idiot manage to drop a cigarette into the trash full of papers.

It didn't help that the idiot was my neighbor and my apartment is on the first floor, being the one that caught the most damage.

The firemen were hosing down the complex while others stood outside watching the scene. The flames ended at the 2nd floor, thankfully for the rest of the people the firefighters got here in time.

I turned around and shoved my neighbor

"What the hell, Namjoon!" I was so pissed at him. He has a place to go and stay temporarily, while I have to go around and look for one, and my broke ass can't afford doing that.

"I'm sorry man, I feel asleep and I wasn't looking" he held my gaze and I knew he truly felt bad, he's a clumsy man, this isn't anything compared to what he did last year.

"Whatever" I mumbled looking away from him.

"Maybe I can ask Jin to let you stay at his place"

I gave him a 'wtf' look before saying

"and hear you two going at it at night? No thanks"

"oh c'mon. Where else are you gonna go?"

I suddenly remembered what happened yesterday at school.

"well....um.... I was wondering....I need someone to stay with me until my mom gets back"

Oh... oh man do I really have to?

I laid out my options in front of me.

So....

live on the streets...

stay with Namjin and hear them trying to reproduce

Or stay with the strangely cute annoying kid from school

Oh god, I'd rather just die.

"Yoongs...are you just going to stand there with a frown on your face or are you going to give me an answer?" Namjoon was waving his hand in front of my face and snapping his fingers.

"oh uh, yeah, I have a place to stay... don't worry about me"

* Hobi's P.O.V *

"So sweetie, did you find someone to stay with you until I'm gone"

I looked up from the chicken I was eating and met my mother's eyes.

"Uh...Y-yeah, he said he'd be here after you left, haha" I let out a nervous chuckle not daring to look it to her gaze.

"Uh-huh... I see, could you ask him to come earlier? I'd like to get to meet him first" I could sense the doubt in her voice, she knows I'm lying.

All day yesterday I was trying to convince Taehyung and Yoongi to stay but neither of them would budge. Tae had a solid excuse, I mean, family is family, but the asshole? He didn't even give me an explanation.

"S-sure... I'll go call him right now" I ran up to my room and started pacing back and forth.

"What do I do?!"

I'm mentally freaking out at this point. My mom won't get to go to her trip because of me. Why can't she just trust me alone? I'm not a bad kid.

I kept pacing around my room when I suddenly stopped to look over at the clock.

6:58 pm

Oh no, my mom has to leave soon, her flight is at 7:40, she needs to start heading out.

"Sweetie? I really need to go now if I want to catch my flight on time. Is your friend coming soon?"

I slowly made my way downstairs disappointed in myself for letting my mom down.

I made it to the last step and was about to open my mouth to tell her the truth when the doorbell rang abruptly.

That's weird... mom didn't tell me we were having guest over, but... why would someone come over if she's about to leave.

My mother walked over and opened the door, I couldn't see who it was since she was blocking the door way.

"Sweetie your friend is here! I guess I'll be leaving now!" She moved away from the door and my eyes were met with the cold hearted boy that goes to my school.

"Yoongi?" I tilted my head to the side

Why is he here?

He said he didn't want to stay.

I walked closer to the door way, my mom looked at me and gave me a tight hug

"I'll miss you sunshine, remember to keep the doors locked and be safe, call me if you need anything and I left enough money for you so if you need to order or anything you know where that is." she let go of me and kissed my cheek. She looked over at Yoongi and started speaking to him

"Wow, those are some interesting tattoos" she smiled at him, she use to talk about tattoos all the time and how I should get one but I'm too scared of needles and I'll probably faint if I ever went near one.

"I'm Hoseok's mom as you already know, I'm assuming you're Hoseok's friend who's staying with him, right?"

Yoongi gave a slight nod and I could tell how uncomfortable he was feeling, my mother extended her hand while Yoongi stared at it confused, he suddenly realized she wanted a handshake and quickly shook her hand.

"Take care of my son. He's a really sweet kid and I'm happy to know he has friends he can trust. You two have fun, thank you for staying!" she gave Yoongi a small hug, yoongi stood there not knowing where to put his arms and locked eyes with me once again, giving me a 'I don't know what to do' look.

Minutes later my mother walked out and Yoongi entered with a luggage I didn't know he had.

He took his shoes off and walked into the living room, looking around with a blank expression and dropped down onto the sofa.

"Why are you here?" I stood over him with my arms crossed and an eyebrow raised

"I decided to help you out, what's so wrong with that?" he had his arm over his eyes so all I could see were his perfect lips moving.

"Is this some kind of joke? or like, you're doing me favor so I have to return it?"

"No, idiot. My home actually caught on fire, okay? happy now?" he was now sitting and annoyed.

"Wait, so the firetrucks I saw went to your place" I asked amused, I couldn't help but let out a loud laugh, I couldn't stop laughing so I rolled over on the floor clutching my stomach

"You-you said you wouldn't stay u-unless HAHA unless your house, oh my god this is priceless!!"

I found it so funny that karma hit him back really fast.

"Yeah yeah, whatever"

I looked over to him and say that he was looking at the blank TV screen in front, he had a faint smile on his face.

This is going to be a long trip.

Haven't updated in awhile, but I'm baaaack.
