"And if you're under him, you ain't gettin' over him"

- Dua Lipa

"Why are you eating your dessert first?"

"Because it's the best part to start the meal with?"

"Shouldn't you save the best till last?" Taehyung argued back.

"Why should I wait when I could have it now?" Yoongi explained before taking a bite of his toffee pudding.

"I agree with V, I think it messes up with your digestive system" Jimin, who was sitting in front of the mind controller, spoke up.

"See? Jimin gets it" the blue haired recieved a glare from Yoongi who sat beside him.

"I think it doesn't matter, it all gets mushed together inside our stomachs" Jungkook added as he took a bite from both dishes to prove his point, making some of you look away in disgust.

"It's scientifically proven that you can take a few bites of your dessert before your main meal because it will help you absorb vitamins and nutrients better" Namjoon explained while eating and typing away on his laptop on the side.

"Of course you'd talk about something boring" Jungkook pointed out with a snarl on his face.

"That's what dumb people say when they don't understand" Namjoon argued back after looking away from his screen.

"Can we not get in to a fight this time round? I just want to eat my lunch in peace" you finally exclaimed. The blonde hero who was sitting on your right decided to back off and continue his work in silence while Jungkook who sat in front of him went back to eating.

Seeing that the table has fallen in to peaceful silence while everyone ate, you decided to pick up your utensils before instinctively picking up your chicken and placing it in Jungkook's plate who gladly accepted them. The others watched in silence at the transfer, including Namjoon.

"Err, what are you doing?"

"Hm? Oh, I'm giving my protein to Jungkook because he needs it. I used to do it when I was babysitting him back in Zeus, I guess I do it without thinking about it now" you explained while continuing to place the cut up chicken pieces in the brunette's plate.

"But you need protein too? Here, take mine" the ice hero started to place his beef pieces on your plate before you noticed what he was doing.

"Wait wait- you need it to get stronger-"

"Your body was busy fixing your arm the past month, you need that energy back" you couldn't argue back as you knew he was right and you didn't have any more excuses to stop him.

Jungkook watched as you gave a small smile to Namjoon for his kindness and decided to also give back your food.

"He's right, you need to take care of yourself" the others watched in amusement at the scene before them, especially Yoongi as he knew about Namjoon's feelings towards you. Before you could stop him, the Athena hero beat you to it by grabbing Jungkook's arm.

"I've got it covered. Just enjoy your meal"

"Yeah Jungkook, thanks for offering though" you added. Switching his vision between the two of you, the copy hero retreated back to his meal, defeated and annoyed.

"I can see why Jin loves to hear about the gossip..."

"What was that Jimin?"

"Nothing..." Jimin replied with a smirk.

-------------------4 hours later-------------------

After lunch, the group continued their training with the help from you form the sidelines. Seeing them work together to help one another made you miss the academy as well as your friends.

"Y/N! Throw us that water!" Looking to your left, you grabbed the bottle of water from the floor before throwing it over to Jungkook.

"Thanks!" Everyone was back inside since winter wasn't nearly over yet and conditions weren't the greatest.

"Move over, I'm going to rest" Yoongi stated before dropping to the floor beside you and finally taking a rest from Namjoon's hard core training.

"Want water?"

"I want sleep" you chuckled before placing the cold bottle against his head to cool him down.

"Cold! Cold- ahhhhh, I needed that" taking the bottle from you, he placed it around his face and neck to cool himself down.

"I think it's nearly time for a break, you guys have been going at it for quite awhile now" you said while crossing your legs to fix your posture.

"You know how he is, he won't stop until he sees progress. In the academy he was worse- Ugh" the black haired hero shivered at the thought of how Namjoon used to be.

"What was he like?" You asked out of curiosity.

"Well, he wouldn't work with anyone since he thought he could handle everything. I remember everyone used to hate him because he was so obnoxious but he was good at everything. The teachers loved him since he was an elemental with amazing grades and our academy became famous because of him"

"How did you guys become friends then? I mean, there's no way he approached you first, right?" You urged on.

"Actually, he wanted to be in a group with me" you raised your eyebrows in shock, wanting to hear more of their past.

"Really?! How did that go?"

"Well, for our last exam, we needed to be in groups to do a rescue mission. I remember he immediately asked if he could be alone like in the past exams but they refused. Everyone got in to groups and I was alone as usual-"

"Alone? You didn't have a group?"

"I wasn't much of a talker and I think most of the people in my class didn't know what power I had. Anyway, Namjoon came over to me and asked to be in his group since my power was a psychic ability. I was shocked that he even came over and talked to me, never mind that he knew what my power was" Yoongi sat up and scouted back so that his back was against the wall along with yours.

"Woah, then what happened?"

"I accepted. I mean, if I get grouped with a guy who gets amazing grades then I am sure going pass right?" You were silent for a second before bursting out in to a fit of laughter.

"Why is that so you?! Hahaha" you wiped away the tears from your eyes before looking back at the mind controller.

"But it worked didn't it? Zeus was all over us and they were contacting us like crazy"

"Zeus? Not Athena?" Becoming serious, you didn't know whether you heard right or not.

"Of course all the other companies called us but Zeus only accepts the best of the best and they wanted us. But, Namjoon declined them and wanted to go to Athena"

"What?! That's crazy, why would he decline them?"

"Beats me" he said after chugging down the bottle of water until it was empty.

"What about you? You got called by Zeus too, right?"

"Well, I was happy that they wanted me... but I thought maybe their training was too tiring?"

"I'm done. This can't be real"

"It is!"
