     This time, everyone did gasp- even Jungkook who was aware of your intentions. He knew you were trying to reach an understanding point with Namjoon, but he hadn't expected you to just directly request a chat with him right in front of everybody. Namjoon picked himself up off of the floor.

     "Why would I have any aspiration to do that?" He sassed you, getting close to your face in a challenging manner.

     "Because there's obviously some things that need to be settled between us." You crossed your arms over your chest. "And if you'll say something about me to Taehyung, you should be perfectly comfortable saying it to my face too."

     Your act was back, but quite frankly, you were only half acting. Even just after a couple of days you were tired of dealing with this man. You slightly wondered if things would have been easier if you had taken a different approach than the "rebellious teen" route. Everyone watched the situation unfold in awe. It's only the second day and you had already challenged Namjoon twice. Jungkook urgently wanted to remind you of your whole "getting on Namjoon's good side" plan, but the current event kept him silent.

     Namjoon was already furious at your remark. It didn't take him more than a moment to angrily grab your arm and jerk you out of the room. Jungkook panicked, and was about to run after you two when he was held back by an arm yet again.

     "I'm curious about a lot of things right now. But, you've just given me another thing to ponder. Just why are you so protective over Y/N, Jungkook?" Yoongi asked with an accusatory tone. Suddenly, everyone had averted their attention to the two boys rather than you and Namjoon.

     "Yeah Jungkook, why does her business matter to you?" Jin questioned as well. Jungkook began to sweat. He had been too obvious, he should have been more discreet.

     "I, it's uh," Everyone looked at him expectantly. "It's just basic human concern. You've all seen how Namjoon is, he could kill her. I don't need that on my mind, or the mind of Bang PDnim for that matter."

     Jungkook threw out the first excuse he could think of, and luckily for him it seemed to work.

     "You're right! What if he hurts her?" Taehyung panicked as well. After this realization, the rest of Bangtan grew a look of worry. Even Yoongi, who usually couldn't have cared less about you.

     "We'll just have to hope everything goes alright." Jin muttered quietly.

     Meanwhile, Namjoon had dragged you out into the hallway and threw you in front of him.

     "Yah! How dare you come here and disrespect me like that! You have no right!" He shouted, nearly red in the face with fury.

     "That's not all this is about, is it?" You stated calmly. Namjoon blinked rapidly, highly confused.

     "What are you talking about?" He asked in a disoriented manner.

     You took a step closer to him. "There's something else. I know you're not just offended by my disrespect. You have something against me. What is it?"

     Namjoon was taken aback. Had his grudge really been so obvious even though it had just developed the day before? He scoffed.

     "If you're so sure of yourself, then why don't you just tell me what exactly my problem is." He challenged. But you were not threatened.

     "I think I'm too much for you."

     Namjoon nearly choked. "What?!" He spat.

     "You can't handle another person like yourself." You began to pace a circle around him. "I've been given information on all of you prior to coming for my job. We're very alike. But you can't handle it. The subconscious thought of someone taking your position as genius, as the leader, it's not something you'll allow. You're conceited, you take pride in your titles. So when someone becomes a threat to them, you get defensive."
