"Do I seriously look that old!?" I touch my face in horror. I knew it! All this studying is sucking the life out of me!

"No, no, no! You got it all wrong!" RM shakes his hands. "We thought since you're so mature, you must be more or less around our age..." He explains briefly. Mature? Me? HAHAHAHAHAHA!!

...

He's joking, right?

"So, you are 17?" Jimin asks again.

"Last time I checked, yeah." I confirm again. V and Jin hide their faces as the others laugh. "What's wrong?"

"Well, you see... In Korea, when a man feeds a woman older than him, it's a sign of respect. But when a man feeds a woman younger than him, it's a sign of affection." RapMon clarifies the situation. My face turns red. (THIS IS PROBABLY COMPLETELY FALSE BUT ITS JUST FOR THE STORY.)

"Oh, I'm sorry! I should've told you my age earlier!" I apologize countless times, feeling stupid.

"It's not your fault, they just weren't thinking." RM hits Jin playfully.

"Sorry..." Jin and V apologize.

"Oh no, it's fine, it's completely my fault." I smile before a thought pops into my head. "Wait... Jin, aren't you 25?"

He nods shyly.

"If what RM said is true... THEN YOU THOUGHT I WAS OLDER THAN 25!?" I gasp. The whole gang starts laughing except the victim.

"Yes... But no!" He defends himself poorly.

"How could you think that!? I don't look THAT old!" I act but couldn't keep myself from smiling. Jungkook bursts out laughing.

"HEY!!! 25 IS NOT OLD!!!! V DID SAME THING!!!! WHY HE NOT YELLED AT!?"

V's eyes widen in surprise, sending signs of utmost betrayal towards his Hyung.

"Because he was only following you since you're his Hyung and you should know better! Plus, look at that face..." I look at his face as he smiles sweetly. "You can't get mad at that face." I point at him and he chuckles.

"NOT FAIR!!!!!" Jin whines childishly. Everyone laughs wholeheartedly, even him.

"Does anyone want refills?"

"Refills?" Hoseok repeats.

"More drinks."

They shake their heads.

"Ok, well I'm going to get some water. Be right back." I slide out of the booth.

"Me too!" Jin quickly replies as Hope and RM let him pass. I shrug and walk to the counter with him close behind. I ask for a glass of water and patiently wait for it. I keep my back to Jin, acting as if I was still mad. He's so naive... To think I'd be mad a such a little comment. My eyes catch people from outside.

"Um... Bri-!"

I turn and place a finger close to his mouth as I pull him down, crouching on the floor. Not a moment longer, the bell rings, signaling new customers. The same group of fangirls from earlier today arrive with fewer members. They enter the restaurant, unable to contain their excitement. Ugh! How do they keep appearing everywhere we go? Thankfully, the counter is large enough to hide us.

"We got to leave before they notice you're here!" I whisper to him.

"Ok!" Jin understands. I take the lead and we crawl beside the counter with the girls on the other side. We get to the end, I make sure it's clear before we sprint to the table.
