Non-bulletproof Boyscouts

Phone call

Taehyung's pov

After three hours of practice I took a quick shower and rushed to the kitchen. I could smell pasta. I peeked around the corner of the kitchen expecting to get a look at Luna while she was cooking. But she was no longer cooking. She was standing by the sink, one hand strangling a towel and the other clamping her phone, just staring into space.

I walked up to where she was standing and wrapped my arms around her from behind.

"What happened?" I whispered in her ear.

She scared up and relaxed a little in my arms. I put my chin on her shoulder and she leaned into me.

"My parents want to talk to me." she murmured.

I nodded "Do you want me to come with you?"

She smiled and shook her head. "I'd love that but you have to practice."

"I can skip one day."

She put down her phone and the towel and turned around in my arms. "No you can't I promised I wouldn't get in the way of your practice." she said.

"To who?" I asked.

"Namjoon and Bang PD."

I pouted. "Are you sure you can handle this?"

"I'll have to," she confessed: "I'm lucky I can come back here and be around you guys afterwards though."

I smiled and gave her a peck on the lips. "We're not going anywhere."

The next day in the afternoon, Luna went to her parent's house. She had asked me not to tell the others but I couldn't help but worry and Jimin noticed immediately.

"Taehyung-ah, what's wrong?"

"Nothing."

"Liar, Luna isn't going shopping, is she?" He scowled at me.

I didn't reply.

Jimin sighed, took his phone and texted someone, they replied within a few seconds. He looked up at me and said: "Kaylee's in class. Where is Luna?"

He said it so loud everyone turned their heads in our direction.

"She went to her parents' house." I murmured.

Everyone's eyes grew wide. "Ok, put your phones on the highest volume so we know when she's calling. We can't help her apart from being here when she comes back. She has to do this alone." Hoseok said.

"How do you know?" I asked.

Hoseok smiled and said: "Luna and I have a pact, remember? We tell each other everything. Just trust her, she'll call if she needs us."

I sighed but I knew he was right. Everyone put their phones on the loudest mode and went back to practice.

Luna's pov

"Who the hell do you think you are!!" my mother screeched as she threw the first thing she could get her hands on, to my head. I ducked. The wooden box shattered against the wall behind me. My father sat on the sofa, watching over us. She had been calm when I arrived. I actually thought I'd be able to have a normal conversation with her for once.

Guess I'll have to bury that thought.

"You moved?" she continued. "What the hell were you thinking? What made you think you could do that?"

"What do you care?" I growled. "You haven't cared for me since Samuel died so why would you care now?"

My father jumped up as I mentioned my brother. "Don't you dare say his name!" he roared.
