The New Step Sister

Thirteen

Feelings of guilt were creeping up on me as I left Jimin upstairs so I can return to the party. But then I remembered why I did it.

I quickly went to the kitchen and chugged another drink. People were starting to clear the house, indicating the party was almost over.

I see Taehyung approach me. "Hi, y/n. My soccer friends all left. Did you like meeting them?"

Even though it only happened moments ago, I erased my talk with Jimin from my mind. I gave a smile. "Yeah, they were great."

"I noticed that you gave Bryan a flirty look."

"W-What?... No no no," You became flustered and nervously laughed.

Tae laughed too. "Good. Because that would be a problem."

"What do you mean?"

"Because that would mean I would have to stop doing nasty things with you."

I frowned. I have to tell him now, just like I did with Jimin.

"Actually, Tae, that's something I want to talk to you about."

He leaned in and listened, still with a smile on his face.

"That day in the woods... it was a moment of weakness. We can't do those kind of things with each other ever again."

He crossed his arms and gave a a pout. "But we had fun didn't we? Why would you want to end that?"

"Obviously because my mother is marrying your dad. I have to start calling you my brother, and me, your sister. If we weren't going to be family, maybe things would be different."

I looked down, disappointed with my feelings.

"Things don't have to be different," he said while still smiling. It's as if he isn't taking this seriously.

"Tae, I don't think you're understanding me..."

"I understand you fine. I'm just taking it as a challenge."

"A-A challenge?"

He winked and left the kitchen, leaving me confused. Well, hopefully he will get the message sooner or later.

Okay, two down, one to go.

I'm looking around the house, that is now trashed, for Jungkook. From the corner of my eye, I see Jungkook go upstairs. I was about to follow him when I feel someone tug my shoulder.

"Yah! You can't escape y/n! You still have to help us clean up." I turned to see Namjoon scolding me. I lowered my head and apologized. I guess I just have to talk to Jungkook later.

I get a garbage bag and start picking up crushed cups and cans while also putting furniture back to its rightful place.

The older guys were doing last minute tidying up and thanked me for helping them and let me go.

Once I reached upstairs and into the hallway, I see Junkook just coming out from Jimin's room, closing the door. Panic suddenly set into me.

I went up to him and whispered, "You didn't tell him did you?!"

He saw the worry in my eyes and said, "Don't freak out, I didn't say anything."

Relieved, I blew out a breath. But then he smirked. "But he said something."

"What? What did he say to you?" Could Jimin have told him about what we did?

Jungkook turned around and headed to his room without answering my question.

"Hey, answer me first!"

"Come in my room to find out."

You knew where this was heading. "No way."

He turned his doorknob and looked over his shoulder at me. "You know how our deals work." He stepped into his room. I had no choice but to go in with him if I wanted to find out what Jimin told Jungkook.

His room was dark, only the moonlight illuminating the room through the window. He took his shirt off, revealing his muscular back.

I turn my head in embarrassment. "Are you going to tell me or not?"

Jungkook plops on the bed with a grunt. "Parties make me so tired," he says ignoring me.

I cross my arms in agitation. He looks at my irritated stance and rolls his eyes.

"You know, it's actually really funny. Jimin said he really hates bitches who toy with his heart."

You squint your eyes at him. "He did not say that."

He laughs. "I would have."

"Jungkook, please tell me what he said to you."

"Fine," he sits up on the bed to look at me. "He told me that he had feelings for you, and that you didn't feel the same way."

My heart broke a little bit when he said that. I never wanted to hurt Jimin. He seems to be taking it hard.

"Well, I meant it," Even though some part of me that didn't. "And I also told Taehyung the same."

"Oh, so you're ending things?"

"Yes. And I am also saying the same to you. Don't expect me to have sex with you anytime you want me to, because it's not going to happen again."

Jungkook just shrugs. "Whatever."

I was taken aback at how nonchalantly he was. "Y-You don't have a problem with that?"

"Not really," he says. "However..." he became very serious. He stood up and walked up to me. "I do have a problem with you hurting my brother."

I almost wanted to coward away at how dark his eyes are. But I stood my ground. "That is exactly why I'm ending it. Because he is my brother, too."

He rolled his eyes. "Well, Jimin doesn't see it that way. He is a sensitive guy. He takes things to heart. So, if you decide to get close to him again in other ways besides sibling love, and then end things, it will crush him."

The weight of his words is wearing me down. I am cursing at myself that I even let these things happen.

My voice lowered to a quite whisper. "Okay. I understand." 

I turn to leave, but Jungkook grabs my wrist.

"I'm not done with you yet."
