Brotherly Love (BTS X READER) *Book 1*

A Relieving Return

     "Could you please explain how all of this happened?"

     Yoongi addressed you in a soft tone, but you still flinched slightly.

     "How... did this happen?" you repeated his question. He nodded as confirmation that he was indeed curious about that exact subject. You froze for a second as if recalling the events, and then burst into laughter despite previously crying, much to Yoongi's surprise.

     "This happened because I'm a total idiot!" your laughter continued as the male squatting before you stared at you with confusion written all over his face. He figured you must have been sort of unstable at that moment, considering the terror on your face when he had initially opened the closet. You were probably pretty shaken up, he imagined.

     "What do you mean?" Yoongi inquired, hoping to be enlightened about the reason everything had happened and why you were acting so strange. You allowed your laughter to fade out, and you wiped away the tears on your face.

     "Well, I just wanted to find a vending machine. I looked in every room down this hallway, but when I went to check in this closet, I tripped and fell in. This door is one of those terrible self-locking ones from hell that don't have a lock on the inside, and so I got stuck. Then, when Namjoon came for me, he put out a hand to pull me out but he let the door close and then we both got locked in." you explained.

     "Why didn't one of you call us? Jin and Taehyung called Namjoon for hours." Yoongi asked once again with confusion, adjusting his position to a kneel rather than a squat.

     "Both of our phones were dead, as cliché as it sounds." 

     "But why was he so mad at you?" he continued to question. "I could hear him screaming at you from a ways down the hall."

     You sighed. "That was the second time I screwed up. He was pretty annoyed that he was stuck in a closet with me, and when he started getting snappy, I started to cry because I wanted to see how he would act if I made him feel guilty. All was well until I decided to be an idiot and tell him that I was experimenting with him."

     "Why in the world would you have thought that was a good idea?"

     "That's exactly what I'm asking myself now," you ran your fingers through your hair (or if not just sigh or something), "I have no idea why I decided to do that, especially considering how much he already dislikes me. But yeah, after that he flung me into the wall and started telling me off. I honestly thought he was gonna choke me out."

     Yoongi hummed lowly, expressing his understanding of the situation. The two of you sat in silence for a minute, and it was only slightly awkward. Suddenly, you remembered how much of a jerk you had been to him that morning.

     "Oh my goodness," you gasped abruptly, breaking the silence and shocking Yoongi, "I'm so sorry!"

     "What?" the poor guy was confused once again.

     "I was so rude to you this morning, I was way out of line. I'm sorry." you explained to him, bringing him to remember that morning.

     "Oh... oh yeah. You- you should be!" he crossed his arms. "An important person such as myself deserves better treatment!"

     Oddly enough, he hadn't been thinking about that ever since he got you out of the closet. It had been on his mind the rest of the day, but it's like the thought of it just flew out of his mind the second he saw you again. Maybe it was just because he was distracted by your situation.

     You scoffed quietly at his reaction. "Safe to say it was true though." you muttered quietly. Yoongi heard you, but he ignored it, despite wanting to throw out a comment.
