THE REST OF THE DAY WAS INTERESTING. After Jungkook and I agreed to only be friends, I sensed a growing tension between us. We ended up playing a few sets of water polo and, for some reason, I felt relieved to be on Namjoon's team. It took me a few serves to get the gist of the game, adapting to the weird dynamic of having to move in the water, but I got it in the end. It was actually a lot of fun once the game got into the full swing of things.

It was around twelve when we finally climbed out of the pool to have lunch. We gathered around on the wooden picnic tables, casually talking amongst ourselves as we ate the lunch the staff had prepared us. I'd slipped my shirt over my bikini, but hadn't bothered with my shorts. My swimsuit was still damp. Jungkook sat across from me. Lalisa had surprisingly opted to sit next to Rose instead of Jungkook, which came as a major surprise on my end. With the way she'd talked about him, I had honestly expected her to jump at the chance to sit next to him. She hadn't even attempted to make conversation with him, let alone make eye contact. Jennie, however, had no problem cozying up next to Taehyung. She was practically glued to his side, giving him a doe-eyed look. Eventually it got to the point where all I could do was roll my eyes in annoyance.

"Hey, who wants to play a round of dirty truth or dare?" Hoseok suggested, grinning maniacally. Whatever he had in store, I wanted no part of it.

"I'm down if you guys are?" Lalisa said, casting a look around the table at each of our faces.

Namjoon, after casting a reluctant look around at the rest of us, eventually threw his hands up in surrender. "Fine, why not."

Hoseok grinned from ear to ear. "Okay, so who wants to start off?"

I was just about to decline when Jae-eun sidled up beside me. Her short brown hair licked at the edges of her face, causing her to hastily tuck the unruly strands behind her ear. "Hey, guys." She placed a hand on my shoulder. "Mind if I steal your manager here for a minute?"
