A Game (BOOK 1) | Kim Taehyung/BTS

8

I'm really sorry about how little I've been updating! I have school and a lot of stress right now so I wasn't in the mood. I still am not really in the mood for writing so this is sort of a placeholder chapter until I get to writing the actual chapter. Please bear with the wait!

It's been a month since BTS have been to my house. We text often, so I kept thinking they were just busy with meetings, but NO

LOVE YOURSELF HER JUST CAME OUT

"JEN!" I shouted.

"What?" She replied.

"BANGTAN ARE COMING OVER IN 10 MINUTES!" I said.

"WHY THE SHORT NOTICE?!" She shouted.

"BECAUSE I JUST FOUND OUT BYE!" I closed my door again and got changed.

Unfortunately, most of them were busy, so only Jungkook, Namjoon and Seokjin could come, but that's okay because I love them! We were meeting up with the others later at the amusement park.

"I missed you, Puta." Seokjin smiled.

"Yah, don't call me Puta, it's rude!" I laughed.

"Oh yeah, it means like bitch in Portuguese right?" Namjoon said, slightly unsure.

"Yep."

"OH OKAY I'M SO SORRY" Seokjin bowed 90 degrees and I laughed.

"It's fine!" I smiled. "I call myself puta anyway."

"HELLO CHILDREN!" Jen called as she ran down the stairs.

"Hello!" Jungkook smiled. They're the same age so in Korean culture they're considered friends.

"Nice to see you all again. Great new album, I'm getting sick of it though, damn Lenny won't stop listening to it." She groaned.

"DIMPLE IS BEAUTIFUL" I snapped. "Anyway, hi :)"

We had fun that day. We went to the amusement park and teased Hobi and Jimin. However, something didn't feel right. I didn't feel the air and the thrill of happiness as I used to. Why did it feel so different?

As I was walking home, JK and NJ had to go record. Seokjin stayed with me as he had already recorded his part.

"Lenny, are you okay?" He asked, concerned.

"Hm? Of course!" I smiled brightly, trying to cover up my thoughts. "Why wouldn't I be?"

"As the hyung of 5 little kids and 1 immature leader, I can tell when something's wrong." He said softly. "What's wrong?"

"It's just..." I started, feeling that I could trust him. I took a deep breath. "It feels like I'm dead."

"What?" He said, sounding slightly startled.

"I mean... I don't get the thrill of riding a roller coaster. I just feel... empty. I don't even feel excited." I said. "It's weird, as if I'm a ghost."

"This is like a fanfiction," He chuckled. "Yah, you're alive, right? Your heart beats like any other human, and you breathe oxygen like me. You're probably just really immune to excitement."

"Probably," I smiled. "...How come I can trust you instantly?"

"I guess I have that feel." He said. "Anyway, can I ask you some questions about yourself? I feel like you and Taehyung are really close and I want to know a bit more about you too."

"Sure! Ask me anything," I said.

"Do you go to school?" He asked.

"I do, yeah." I replied. "I'm suspended right now, though." (Suspension exists in Korea, right? Sorry if I get something about Korean culture wrong, I'm British TT)

"What did you do?" He laughed slightly.

"I kept saying 'Yehet' over the teachers in classes." I giggled slightly thinking about it. "They got really pissed off."

"You--" He burst out into laughter. "I just imagined that oh my god"

"Yeah, it was pretty funny." I laughed.

"So, what do you study?" He asked.

"I study English, Chemistry, Maths, Drama and Computing." I said. "I hate maths though. Ughhh"

"Same! I graduated from University just last year, but I hated maths. Never wanted to do that shiteu." He smiled. (Again, IDK how uni works either. I'm too smol for that shit)

"I like your face." I said suddenly, as for the past 10 minutes I had been completely staring at him. I quickly covered my mouth and waved my hands about like a seal. "I'M SO SORRY IT JUST CAME OUT I DIDN'T MEAN TO BE CREEPY I-"

"You're so cute," He laughed. "I like your face too."

"Aish, shut up." I blushed.

"Never!" He shouted like a little kid. As we walked and talked, he showed his cute meme-y side to me. I couldn't stop laughing and smiling and staring. I-It sounds stupid but... it seemed like I was in love.

So... why didn't it feel like it?

"Hey... you're bumping into a tree. Oh, right you can't hear me. J-Just, let me drag you to the bench."

"There we go.  You hear it? Your favourite song? You'll be back soon. Finish up quick, okay? I'll wait for you. It's nearly been 2 days, you really must love that game. Hurry up, though. You can't stay out here for the 6 months you've been there."
