A/N:Here's the 4th chapter of our story😄hope you didn't wait too long🤗  We're curious: which character do you like the most? Tell us in comment😆
Jikook🙆

Hoseok spoke up "What are you two doing together?"
"Oppa, it's not what it looks like..."
Jungkook grabbed Sarang's arm. "Just ignore him..."
Hoseok glared at him
"Is that how you want to play, Kookie? Fine."
He turned around and left.
Sarang turned to Jungkook, but he didn't offer any explanation, he just pulled her by arm and led her to the car.

When they arrived in front of the company building, they saw Taehyung and Yeon coming out of the car together.
"Why did you two come together?" Sarang asked curiously.
Yeon was flustered at the question but Taehyung came to the rescue. "That's something you should be telling us"
The brunette cleared her throat awkwardly.
"Uhh, but we've just met now!"
Taehyung and Yeon just shrugged it off, not giving it a second thought. They went inside. They were greeted by a glaring Hoseok, but were quickly distracted by Jimin who bought coffee for everyone. He handed Yeon one of the cups and smiled at her cutely. She returned the smile. They were about to begin, but one person was missing.
"Sarang-ah, where is Namjoon?" Seokjin questioned, whipping his head left then right, as if that would help him find the missing man.
"I don't know. How am I even supposed to know that?" she said.
"Well, aren't you two living together?" Seokjin asked.
Hearing those word poor Jungkook nearly choked on his coffee, Yeon patted his back trying to help him, while Hoseok just stared at Sarang in surprise. She was about to respond, when they heard a voice say
"Yes, we are. Is there a problem with that?"
He went to sit between Sarang and Jungkook. The latter looked down sadly. As Jimin handed him the now lukewarm coffee, Seokjin didn't waste the opportunity.
"Looks like you're running a little latte, Namjoon-ah."
He laughed and clapped like an adorable seal at his own pun, along with Jimin and Yeon. The others just groaned or facepalmed. When the laughing trio had calmed down, Jimin wondered "Where were you anyway, hyung?"
"I went to visit a friend of mine...." the blonde said. "Well, let's see how is the song coming up!"
Taehyung handed him the papers with edited lyrics, but this time his face showed less enthusiasm and more hate. As Namjoon was looking through them, he smirked slightly.

Previous night

The music was blaring through the speakers, neon lasers the only light in the bar. The DJ, looking all cool with his snapback and big headphones, was enjoying while mixing the music in a fast beat, the crowd dancing along to the rhytm. As another song had ended, the boy went out of the booth to get a drink, as it was his break time. He ordered double whisky. He was drinking while looking around at people. He saw a random guy sit a few stools away from him. Three more guys, dressed all in black joined him, but the DJ paid no mind to them. Well, it was like that until he heard a familiar name slip from the guy's mouth.
"--Sarang."
Stealthily, he sat closer to the group of suspicious people, trying to eavesdrop.
"We'll start with the plan tomorrow." the tall blonde guy said. "We have to destroy them both. I'm counting on you to do your job well."
As he said that, he tossed lots of money to the men. They picked it up, silently bowed and left the bar without another word.

Present

The little group was finished with the work for that day. Yeon approached Sarang, who was packing her stuff.
"Sarang, we have to talk about something very important, can we meet later?" the slightly older girl asked.
"Of course, I'll text you about the details."
They hugged and said their byes to each other. Sarang was already at the door when Hoseok ran up to her.
"Is that true, Sarang-ah? You and Namjoon are really together?!"
"No, he's just staying with me because he had lost his wallet and couldn't afford to stay in hotel."
Hoseok smiled widely at that and hugged her. She was caught off-guard, but she recovered quickly and patted his back.
"I knew that you weren't like that!"
They broke the hug, Hoseok still smiling as bright as sun, and Miyo smiled back at him warmly. She then waved at him and left. Seokjin had offered to drive Jungkook, Hoseok and Jimin home. While the two brothers took up on the offer, Jimin decided to stay behind. The others waved at him and left. Taehyung was arranging his papers, while Jimin approached Yeon.
"Yeon, about yesterday... I really mean what I said, so I'd like to ask you if you'd like to go out with me on a date tomorrow? Will you please give me a chance?"
Taehyung's hand had subconsciously crumpled a paper he was holding. He turned around with a tight-lipped smile to look at Jimin.
"Sorry Jimin, but Yeon already has other plans."
He took her hand in his and led them out of the room. Jimin couldn't move, he was so confused with everything. He looked at the place where the girl was standing just a moment ago, and sighed.
At the hall Taehyung was still leading Yeon away from Jimin. He mumbled to himself "What's gotten into me? Why did I do that?"
"What was that? What did you say?"
Taehyung, realizing that he said that out loud, smiled at her a bit awkwardly.
"It was nothing..."
They were now standing at the entrance of the building. Taehyung looked down at their still connected hands. He quickly let go and cleared his throat.
"What was that all about, anyway? I don't have any plans for tommorow!" the girl asked.
"Well, I just thought that after what happened with Namjoon, you should be extra careful and stay at home for now." the chestnut haired boy said.
Yeon looked at him, deep in thought.
"Hmm... I guess you're right. Thanks for taking care of me, oppa."
Taehyung smiled at her, but now it was a genuine boxy smile.
"Always."

Sarang and Namjoon were in her living room, watching TV and drinking tea. At one point there were news about a family in a car accident. Sarang's hands started to shiver and she dropped her cup spilling it's contents, but luckily it wasn't broken. Namjoon smirked to himself.
"Looks like you have a bad experience such as this one." he mused.
"You could say that, yeah. I've done something I shouldn't have. It's all in the past now, but I still keep thinking about it sometimes."
"It isn't in the past for everyone..." he mumbled.
"Come again?"
"Nevermind." he cleared his throat. "Let's get this stain cleaned up."
He went to get a cloth to clean the mess. Sarang took out her phone, which was turned off all day as it had been a really busy day. She wanted to text Yeon about meeting up, but a message suddenly popped up.

From: DJ Boy 😎🎧
