The Auction

Chapter 17

Dana's POV

Living in a house with Tae and Kookie was easy. They get along well and even worked well together. I was concerned working and living together would be an issue, but it didn't really seem to be. While Tae continued to question men for me, Kookie took care of appointments and getting files.

So far Kookie has seems to be doing OK. We don't have an intimate relationship, but that's OK. I make sure I don't touch him unless he touches me first. I never kiss him on mouth always on his cheeks or chin. I'm not sure what happen to him but I'm not trying to traumatize him anymore. I wish he would open up and tell me, but I guess he will when he is ready. He seems sad sometimes but if I ask all he says is he's fine. Who am I to question him I have never been in his shoes, but he doesn't seem fine to me.

I was so lost in thought I don't hear Tisha walk in.

Tisha: What's up lady?
She is almost like a whole new woman.

I have no idea what Namjoon has been doing to her, but she has found some manners. So whatever he has done, I approved whatever it is. Her smile is bright and she is glowing from within. He is good for her.

Dana: Hey, you look all radiant. I see married life agrees with you.
She blushes and I smile.

Tisha: Should have done it years ago. I'm not sure how you can deal with two husbands. Joonie is far too much for me to think about another one.
She is blushing and has a spacey look and a smile on her face.

Dana: Well it's easy. Kookie is a very laid back and relaxed person so there hasn't been any issues.
Her eyes get big and round.

Tisha: How is he in bed, I have been dying to know.
She gets comfortable and rests her face on her fists, waiting on the details.

Dana: He has been through alot I'm not going to make him do anything he doesn't want to.
She looks around before gets closer to and whispers.

Tisha: Woman you better ride that man like a monkey rides a bulldog he will be fine.
Now is my turn to get all bug eyed.

Tisha: Look if you stay lovey dovey with Tae and leave him out it will cause animosity. Your house isn't so big that he doesn't know when you and Tae are having sex. Think about it.
I blink a few times and attempt to process what she said.

Dana: I'm positive he will say something when he is ready, but I'll ask him anyway. He can be shy sometimes.
She smiles looking like her old freaky self again.

Tisha: The quiet shy ones are always closest freaks.
She smiles and wiggles her eyebrows.

Taehyung's POV

Kookie has been a little withdrawn lately. Whenever anyone asks him, he smiles and says he's fine, but I know he's lying. I plan on talking to him later while Dana is busy but after Namjoon leaves.

Namjoon: Kookie how are you liking married life?
I don't turn, I already know what he is going to say.

Jungkook: It's fine just still getting used to it. It's umm different.
That was not far from what I expected.

Namjoon: I imagine it would be. Have you talked to Dana or Tae to help make it easier for you?
Joon was older and always had a way of helping without being pushy or treating us like kids. I appreciate him not involving me in this conversation, but I can't keep quiet.

Taehyung: No, he hasn't but I want to help. I know he's not fine.
I notice Kookie blushes when I say that

Jungkook: It's no big deal Tae. I'm fine.
He actually looks miserable; he can't even look me in the eye.
