In This House // BTS Mafia au

Chapter Fourteen

"Knock knock."

Miyeon shot up at the voice; she was dozing off. It wasn't Jungkook or Mr. Jin....not Hoseok either.

The 'arsonist' member peeked through the door. Yoongi, Miyeon remembered that at least. His blonde hair reflected the sunset light through the window, making it shine. "Hi, Miyeon."

"Hi," Miyeon said. She had had a full conversation with Hoseok, Mr. Jin, and Monster before, and she sure had no problem talking with Jungkook (well, at least no problems in the nerve department.) Why was it so hard to find courage when it came to the other members?

"Uh, I know Monster was supposed to come in here and do his whole questioning routine today," he said casually, walking in and shutting the door behind him. "But he decided to give you another day to rest up. Something about medications and your wound."

"Yeah, Mr--I mean Jin said he would have to give me some meds pretty regularly," Miyeon said. "But I don't need any more rest. I can tell you guys what you need whenever you want."

"Well, between you and me," Yoongi smirked, "I think the rest is more for Monster." He smiled at Miyeon, which made her more relaxed. 

He leaned against the dresser. "That's pretty much all. How has everything been for you?" His smile deepened. "Jungkook still being a bitch?"

Miyeon started laughing, but caught herself before going too far. Yoongi must have seen her reluctance, as he waved it off. "No, no, please laugh, he is  funny when he puts up the whole brat routine." Yoongi flicked out a lighter and started playing with the cap on his thumb. "It's just cause of his probation."

Miyeon's mood fell. So it was true. 

"Yoongi!" a voice called from the hallway. "It's time to go!"

"Coming!" Yoongi stood up straight. "Jin and I are raiding a truck tonight since Taehyung went for Marcono with the others. Sounds like fun, right?"

Miyeon didn't understand a single word, but she nodded anyway. "Yeah, go....burn something."

Burn something?

Yoongi smiled regardless on his way out the door. "I like the way you think."

Miyeon felt more confident about the other members. She had spoken to almost all of them personally, with only Jimin and Taehyung left, but they seemed friendly from the start anyway. Besides the lingering pain from the stab, being in the house finally felt semi-okay.

Another knock at the door. Would it be another one of them? She finally felt ready.

Jungkook walked in instead. Immediately, her joy left her. After his last visit, she didn't want to see him again.

He looked up at her for a moment, a box in his hands. He sighed. "Hey."
