chapter 33

Jennie didn't hear when her phone rang and so it was one of her cousins who grabbed it off the table and went up to her.

"Who's Jiminie?" Quinn interrogated and put his hands on his hips.

"Quinn, give me my phone." She got up from her seat and attempted to grab it from his hands but he was too tall.

"Nope. Not until you tell me who he is," he said stubbornly and smirked when he saw her trying to jump but was still too short.

Curse that 5'11 long legged soccer player wannabe. She kindly thought in her head.

"We're not five years old anymore, Quinn," she stressed and sighed when her phone stopped ringing.

"Is my little cousin talking to boys?" Quinn joked, saying 'tsk tsk' repeatedly.

"I'm 20 years old," she mumbled and saw her father look up at the two suspiciously.

"You're talking to a boy? Who is it?" Her father eyed her.

Quinn just taunted her phone in the air despite trying to take it back.

"It's... no one." she gritted and glared at Quinn though her narrowed eyes.

He never really saw the other side of her parents besides the good parts, so she couldn't really blame him.

"Some guy named... Jimmy was it?" He mocked and smirked at the phone. "Nah, Jimin."

She managed to snatch the phone out of his hold.

"So what if I'm talking to a boy? I'm pretty sure you're talking to some girl, and you're the same age as me." She pointed out with a raised eyebrow.

Quinn scoffed and flexed his arm. "Yeah, but I'm a guy."

Her lip turned up in disgust and she could hear Anasatasia laughing. "Yes, you have noodle arms, but what's that got to do with anything?"

"I can't get pregnant," he retorted, and Jennie rolled her eyes.

"But can't you get a girl pregnant?" Kara said smartly, and Jennie high fived her in sync.

"I hope this boy you're talking to is a respected adult," her mother said with a look.

Jennie sighed, knowing neither of the boys would be approved of by her parents. But why should their opinion matter?

She managed to leave the room without seeming disrespectful, and went up the large spiral stairs in search of a quiet place. She ended up heading in the room she stayed in with Anastasia, and shut the door.

She walked over to the mirror, double checking her appearance was okay before going over to sit on the bed. Looking down at her phone, she tapped Jimin's contact name so it would call him.

The phone answered after the second ring, and she was met with pink on the phone screen. She heard talking but couldnt see anything but the pastel color.

"Jimin?" She called out, seeing the camera shift to the ceiling and then the floor.

"Melanie... the..phone...on!" Was all she could make out from Jimin, and she began to see Melanie's face appear on the camera, but it was extremely close up so she could only see her eyes.

Jennie laughed at her phone and it was a good few seconds before she could see Jimin got the phone back.

"My gosh that little girl is fast," he breathed and looked down at the camera, seeing Jennie smiling at him. "Hi!"

She chuckled lightly. "Hey Jimin."

"How are you?" he asked, and Jennie saw him lying back on what looked like a bed. She could see Taehyung on the bed as well, scrolling through his phone.

"What are you doing in my room, Jimin?" Taehyung's deep voice was heard through the phone, and even when he wasn't there in person, it was enough to send a shiver through her.

"What do you mean? I'm always in here." he responded back with a pout. "Look Jennie's on the phone!"

She saw Taehyung look up and she waved at the screen. Taehyung stole the phone from Jimin and narrowed his eyes at the screen. Jennie seemed to freeze. Was there something in her hair?

She touched it lightly, and that's when she realized why he was probably looking at her differently. Her hair was different today because she straightened it. She didn't usually straighten it but since it was the holidays, she decided to so something new.

"Your hair looks nice," Taehyung commented, and Jennie saw a flash on the camera before seeing the message: <Jiminie took a Facetime Photo>

Jennie blushed in response. "Thanks."

Jimin took the phone back, and held it up so she could see both of the boys at the same time. Both Jimin and Taehyung looked pretty comfortable, and also as cute as ever.

The phone suddenly shook and soon the little girl came into view. Melanie smiled cheekily at the camera and signed to Jennie. She recognized only one of the 'hello', and so Jennie put her phone down so she could wave back.

"She said she missed you." Jimin translated for her, and Melanie laid down on Jimin chest, making him go oof. "I do too."

Jennie smiled lightly at the three in the camera. "Me too," she said honestly. "Happy Thanksgiving, by the way!"

"Same for you!" Jimin beamed and she could see Melanie touching his hair. He moved back and hit his head on the bed head accidentally. "Taehyung-ah, get your sister!"

Jennie chuckled but stopped abruptly when she heard steps running down the hall coming closer. "I have to go. I'll talk to you guys later."

"Bye! I love you!" Jimin smiled and Jennie stilled in her spot after hearing the last few words.

She just figured he must've meant it platonically and just smiled back.

Just on time, she hung up the phone as Kaiser bursted through the door and demanded for her to re-teach him the renegade.
