Fixing grammars lata

A routine was quickly established the following week once Jin was no longer sick. They began to form their seperate lives separately, for them to collide together for a day and a half. This is how it was. This was their reality. They made it work.

It wasn't like Rachel had much of a life to begin with. To much of Jin's dismay - her life pretty much revolved around him. He wanted her to have her own space.

Of course she wanted a sailboat, but that was too easy. He had to think outside the box.

-*-*-*

Weeks later, Rachel walked with earphones in her ears as she walked on the boat dock towards a boat she had become acquainted with very well. She wasn't paying attention to her surroundings, on a (hopefully easy) day of raising boat, and replacing the transmitter and reciever. She did this without telling him, wanted to surprise him the next time he came. He was due back tomorrow sometime so she procrastinated because the box took 2 extra days to arrive.

She stopped where Jin's boat was supposed to be, turned around and recounted the rows quickly, .... Rachel turned a full 360, looking around trying to find the boat.

Holy shit, did his boat sink?

Now, she was starting to panic. The boat was gone. Another glance around to make sure no one saw her panicking, she clutched the box against her chest and decided to walk back to the car to retrace her steps.

So she did, annoyed when it brought her to the same empty spot, spot 5.

"What the fuck." She said, dropping the sonar down with her arm as she pulled out her phone from her purse. "It better be stolen!" She yelled angrily at no one.

WHERE IS YOUR BOAT

She sat on the wood dock, there in spot 5 waiting for his reply. She swung her legs over the water, anger broiling every minute.

WHY?

He repsonded back in capital letters and Rachel was beyond annoyed.

I GOT A NEW SONAR... IT'S NOT HERE

She huffed, placing her phone on the box and standing up to begin the walk back to the car.

IN THE SHOP ... WHY ARE WE YELLING AT ME

Rachel didnt respond, she just launched the items into the front seat of the car and headed home.

-*-*-

Jin sighed, slipping his phone into his pocket. She wasn't responding and now Jin was worried she would be at the harbor when he returned the boat. He shouldn't have lied, but extraordinary times calls for extraordinary measures. Jin couldn't tell her the guys and him were on the boat.

"Hyung!" He heard Hoseok whine and he walked over to where they stood. "He threw my bait into the ocean." Hoseok complained to Jin, hitting Jungkook who hit back. Then, they were punching eachother.

"He tried to steal mine!" Jungkook yelled inbetween soft punches.

"No, I was just looking at them, and you threw ALL of mine in!"
