Dancing With The Devil

start of something old.

————— 5 MONTHS LATER —————

Jungkook's POV

For the past months, things have gone by pretty slow. I lived everyday like the previous, like a constantly repeated cassette tape. Every day was the same except for whatever argument Rachel and I got into, which somehow still felt like the same fight over and over. She would be angry at me for breathing the wrong way and I would have to hold in what I really wanted to say. Jin hyung and Irene have started dating and they often ruined small talk with medical talk. She spent most weekends at the house, cooking dinner, and trying her best to fit in. She was sweet and everything but all of us haven't completely been ourselves since the Emrie situation. Yoongi hyung finally told us about his girl, Yeri. He spent most days at her place and only really came back to tell us he was still alive.

Namjoon hyung's been traveling around Korea more with his father doing business and Jimin and Hobi hyung built their own dance studio in our training room since we never trained anymore. They practiced new routines for hours and hours on end. Taehyung and I have found a love for singing and we've been writing random songs together for fun, to which Jimin and Hobi hyung would dance to. We might as well start a band now.

Rachel and I began dating a few months ago and our relationship was oftentimes shaky. She was about 7 months pregnant now and she's been more irritable, which stressed me out more. The baby was healthy so far and everything was going smoothly. We all completely shifted away from our past life. We weren't Bangtan anymore, we were just seven brothers going through life together.

Namjoon hyung had sent out a text message to us ordering a team meeting today for the first time in months. It was rare we ever got together. I couldn't even recall the last time we had all been under the same roof at the same time.

"Ok boys, listen up. I know it's been a while since we've talked like this and well I didn't think we'd ever do it again but I just had a few updates from everything that happened a few months ago"

We all nodded our heads, unsure of where this conversation was going.

"The Kwon's have been taken down as of last week. The war with the Fey's is over and the Fey's obviously won. Emrie, however, has not been seen since, which... is not our problem. Speaking of her though, Fey Minseok is settled to be released as a free man very soon. I don't know if he is aware of how things went down between us and his daughter so everything you do, please be on high alert. Remember, he is not a reasonable man so if you sense danger, get out of there"

"Do you think she told him about us?" Jimin asked.

"I don't know. No one has seen her for months, she could be dead for all we know. But I'm not worried about her father. I just wanted to let you guys know so you're all more alert when walking these streets... As you all know, I've been working with my father more to expand our family business. I have a few meetings in the city and if you guys want to take part in working again then anyone is welcome to join me. I know it's been quiet around here and we're all just trying to keep ourselves busy so if anyone would like to get back into working then you can"

"What do you mean by working? Like missions and stuff?" Taehyung asked.

"No, like business meetings and the opening of a few establishments in the city. We can start living a more normal life. Some of you guys have girlfriends and soon-to-be families, so starting to work a normal job might be a good idea."

"I want in"

"Yeah me too"

"Same"

"Ok good, we have a meeting next week at the office so you're all welcome to join me and you can all get a job"
