If You Love Me

Chapter 16: It's Not What It Looks Like!

"OH MAN HOLY SHIT!" 

Jin would've sent the youngest a sharp glare for the swear if it weren't for the fact he tackled Yoongi to the ground before he could fling himself into the sea. 

"You idiot! You nearly killed yourself!" Jin shouts angrily shaking Yoongi by the shoulders. The others huddle around the sight like a group of high school girls fresh to the scene of drama. The only difference was they were decently worried. 

Yoongi spits out some sand and brushes himself off before jumping up to his feet. He can feel everyone's eyes fresh against his back. 

The spinning ground beneath his feet whispers into his ears for him to stay, but the sea calls out to him so passionately. 

Make this your night. 

His chest can't help but leap a little. The moon reflects him so broodily upon the water, orbs smothered with this inexplicable glimmer. 

One he's never seen before. 

Something that makes the hurt die. 

Yoongi's knees strain to keep up with his weight as he walks off in wobbles, yet again he's making his way out to the sea. 

"He's slobbering drunk." Namjoon mutters, turning to Jimin. 

"I know." Jimin nods, raking back his orange locks. "He's got this weird smile on his face." 

"Min Yoongi you bastard! Get your ass back over here!" Jin fusses but it's no match for a man who's firstly, wasted, and secondly, couldn't give less of a crap. 

"It's no use, he's already too deep." Hoseok mumbles, patting Jin on the shoulder.

Taehyung sighs as Yoongi runs into a wave head first. "Oh boy..." 

 "Well..." The corners of Jungkook's lips pull. "If you can't beat them, join them." 

For a moment silent looks are exchanged, Hoseok being the first the burst into ridiculously goofy laughter. "Let's go!" 

The others all follow his lead, charging into the waves head first without a care in the world. You could swear that they were all rag dolling judging from how dramatically they'd drive into the water. 

With a sneaky hand clamped to your wrist, Bora tosses you a sly grin.

"Don't even think about it." You peep threw nervous laughter, yet it isn't enough for her to stop sucking the soul out of you. 

"Depends what I'm thinking sis." She licks her lips and flicks her gaze to the others. "And I'm thinking you need to have a little fun." 

"No I-" 

"Too bad!" You try to stop her but when you're sibling is a mini she-hulk that's like asking the impossible.

As you both jump into the sea, you are teased with a mouthful of salt water as the sand beneath cushions your fall. Taehyung is the first to your side, tapping your shoulder playfully, "Tag!" 

"H-Hey!" He splashes some water your way, silencing your protest though the happy screams of others continue.  Arms are flying everywhere, water is being shoved at you from left to right, the whole moment passing by as a blur with each leg pounding into the ground at a time. 

It is a literal fiasco!

So you center yourself, try to find the one who is weak. 

Or who has you seething with vengeance. 

You grin. 

Seems like Bora makes both cuts. 

"Bora watch out!" Jimin jumps a little as you tackle your sister viciously into the water. You can hear the muffled laughter of others as you stagger off in the midst of blinding laughter. And oh boy did she ever look embarrassed.
