Ive always enjoyed watching other people do stuff their good at. It almost inspires me to get better at something so that I can show it off like they do. When I see someone draw something beautiful or sew something from scratch or in this case play a video game it makes me happy. I watch in awe as Jungkook wins another round of whatever shooter game he is playing. I celebrate quietly from outside of his bedroom door where I'm sprawled across the hallway floor with some sweet snack I found in the kitchen too nervous to ask to come in.

I was originally planning to go and annoy Yoongi but I got distracted as I walked by kooks bedroom door the music drawing me in.  Jungkook starts up another round of the game a little bell sound coming from his speaker telling him to begin.

I munch on the food in my hand watching as jungkook runs around and kills enemy after enemy before getting shot and killed himself. He grunts in annoyance ready to toss the controller before I yell out "aw c'mon that's a foul... or something!" His head turns towards the door eyes shooting down to look at me on the floor. I smile sheepishly before picking myself up and pushing the door open a little bit more. "Can I come in? I'll share my snacks..." I say whilst reaching my hand into the bag and pulling out another sugary chip thing. Jungkook's eyes stay focused on the snack bag in my left hand. I walk over to where he is sitting on the edge of his bed and climb up before plopping down next to him. I extend my hand with the snack in it towards kook, him taking it quickly with a small nod. He munches on the snack for a few moments as I sit there and swing my legs back and forth.

He picks up the controller with a small smile on his face. "Do you maybe... wanna try?" He says restarting the match. He shows me the controls before passing me the controller. I pass the first round easily feeling quite confident in my skills but as soon as the second round began my character was slaughtered within minutes and with a frown on my face I toss the controller behind me along with the empty snack bag.

Jungkook laughs lightly before hopping off the bed with a small thump. He walks over to the console switching the game before coming back. The screens loads in as a familiar looking menu pops up. It's a racing game with cute little characters. We choose our characters and the game begins.

After a few rounds of kook beating me in the game I give up with a huff sliding off the bed to sit on the floor next to Jungkook who ended up on the floor after I pushed him during the third round of him winning. "How are you so good at this!" I pull the sleeves of my top down before setting my head in my hands. I stare a kook as he shrugs before clicking the console off.
