This Wild Love // Yoongi

Explanations...Sort Of

Fluffy.

"Y/N...you're making me really uncomfortable..." Yoongi mutters. He's now sitting directly across from me on the coffee table.

The rest of the boys are patiently waiting for Jin to finish grabbing breakfast, and have formed a somewhat protective semicircle on either side of Yoongi. "Are you going to talk at all?"

I miss them already. The fur was so soft.

I stare at the space above Yoongi's head, now empty and bare except for his silky black hair.

Is he...a werecat or something?

"Y/N~?" Jungkook nervously calls. He waves a hand in front of my eyes, catching my attention. His beautiful eyes sparkle with concern.

"What?" I curtly snap. He jumps back and shelters himself behind Namjoon.

"Aren't you going to ask any questions?"

"Where do I even start?" I reply dryly. "It's not every day that I get to meet a cat boy."

"We're not cat--!" Taehyung starts, but Jimin slaps his hand over Tae's mouth.

"So you're all cat boys."

"No!" Jimin vehemently denies. He slaps a hand over his own mouth.

"So just Taehyung and Yoongi? Then what are you all?"

"That's a bit...complicated," Namjoon starts. He slides next to Yoongi on the coffee table and puts his hands together.

"Yoongi is what's known as a feline shifter."

"You mean...a shapeshifter?" I try to keep looking at things from a third-person standpoint, as if I'm not actually the one experiencing this situation.

It's a bogus tactic, but I'm trying to stay sane.

"Sure, you can call it that," Namjoon hesitantly admits. "But don't get the idea that he can shift into anything he wants. He's restricted to the feline department, meaning he can only shift into various types of cats."

"And that goes for Taehyung, too?"

"Right."

"So what are you?" I pry. "Unless Taehyung and Yoongi are the only...shifters." It feels odd to say the word. Foreign.

Namjoon twiddles his thumbs. "I'm an avian shifter, so my specialty is birds." He tilts his head and looks down the line of guys. "I don't know if anyone else wants to say...?"

Hoseok lifts his hand as if he's in a classroom. A part of me feels guilty for making them so nervous. "I'm an equine shifter. Related to horses. But I can also shift into zebras and anything else that looks vaguely similar."

The mythical image of a centaur pops into my head. Cool.

I mean... not cool. Nope. Because none of this is real.

Jimin chokes into a restrained laughter and looks at Jungkook. Storm clouds gather over Jungkook's head. "Jungkook is a--"

Jungkook slaps Jimin in the back of the head, shutting him up. He puts his head down and scratches his neck. "I usually shift into a jackrabbit, but I can transform into all kinds of rodents and small animals, such as mice, hedgehogs, hamsters, bunnies, and the like."

My eyebrow goes up, wondering how such a muscular guy could possibly end up under such an adorable classification. He lifts his head and stares daggers into Jimin's neck.

"Jimin is a puppy shifter."

"I am not--!" Namjoon steps in to hit both of their heads, already way ahead of the brewing argument. They both tenderly attend to their bruises.
