Chapter 21

"Care to explain now?" Sil Hye asked, clearly displeased with this situation. She had tried hard to not give in to Eun Ae's persuading at the bar a few minutes ago and now that was all a waste.

"They came, so we're leaving. Thought it would have been pretty self explanatory," Namjoon replied with impatience. He was extremely troubled at the moment. Hitae's men had already caught up. Miraculously, they had managed to take Sil Hye with them, nonetheless, it was too risky and troublesome for his liking. Many questions were running through his mind and he wasn't in the mood for answering questions.

"No offence but they came here because you came here. I've been there for 2 weeks and nothing but peace... now?" She choked up. "They would have come anyway."

You raised your head from Taehyung's chest, deciding it was time to big up and stop weeping like a sorry case. You even felt slightly overdramatic as the whole last 5 minutes kept replaying in your mind.

Sil Hye's head inclined to your direction of voice, you carried on, "and you'd rather be with us than them. Trust me." Your soft voice surprised you, even calming yourself. Jungkook's finger wiped a lingering tear from your chin and you rubbed your face, embarrassed again in the presence of these boys that kept making you feel a million things at once.

"Thanks Y/N," Namjoon gently concluded for you, "we'll have to keep on the move for a few days so we'll sleep in the van tonight and find a new hotel after tomorrow."

Sil Hye shook her head profusely, "I haven't agreed."

"You don't have a choice" Yoongi said coolly, a touch of ice in his tone, head cocked back as though he was trying to sleep.

Hoseok didn't know what to say or do. He had finally found his partner and she was with him, right in front of his eyes but she didn't like it at all. Her sad features made him feel guilty yet he couldn't let her go because otherwise, Hitae would take her and there'd be no second chance. His fingers extended slightly behind her back, ready to reach forward and hold her hand. She sighed loudly and bent her neck to rest her head on the seat with a loud thud. Instantly his fingers contracted and he sat back in his own chair, looking out of the window solemnly instead.

Your heart sort of broke observing the whole scene. Jin and Eun Ae had gotten on so well and were practically in love.

I suppose she did have a whole day where she kept to herself and everyone did lots of talking...

Plus you could understand where Sil Hye was coming from. You were the same. Were.

Am I now? Do I want to stay here?

You chewed the inside of your cheeks whilst thinking deeply, lips pressed firmly together. Your eyes moved daringly to look up at the man whose chest you were shamelessly lying on. It hit you like a tonne of bricks that you were on his lap basically cuddling his torso, using him as a bed. On the other hand, it seemed more awkward to try and say anything or move. Not like you could find another seat.

Jungkook smirked as he watched you struggle with your own internal conflict. He wondered what it was that kept you stressed and on edge.

An hour or so later, the van came to a halt at a gas station.

"I'll just be a few mi-" Jin began saying as he rose from the chair a little when you interrupted, "I'll do it!" and made a bee line for the door which you swung open with the least subtlety or elegance.

As you jumped off onto the ground, you stretched your arms out and bent side to side to loosen up your spine. It felt especially cramped in the vehicle, there being tension and all.
