[jungkook]

  Two days left... I definetely see something developing between my dads but the heavy feeling of worry inside me thinking what happened to Taehyung still lingers. What if he got caught? He would be in trouble, that's for sure. Would he get me out? What if I get stuck here?

  I was so intertwined inside my head I didn't even realize the feeling of the area beside me on the couch sank a little. "What are you looking so worried about, kid?" Minhyuk hyung asked me, I recognize his voice the easiest since he talks a lot. I turned to him and found out he was sucking on a lollipop, "Have you ever done something that you now realize was overdramatic, but because you were so overwhelmed with emotions you did it anyway, and now you regret it?"

  His eyes scanned around the dark room which was our 'gang lair' with his lollipop in his fingers and biting his lip. He made a popping sound with his lips and said, "Hm, I think it's normal.. We are humans after all, we're pretty dumb."

  I rolled my eyes playfully, what response was I even expecting, a super philosophical one? Nope, he's Minhyuk. Just then a human figure emerged from the dark corner of the room, "Hey! Minhyuk, why don't you tell Junki what overdramatic dumb thing you did this morning," it was Jooheon. I was definetely afraid of him the most at first because of his rather scary aura, but I was proven wrong when he smiled.

  "Let go of it, ya Jooraffe," Minhyuk rolled his eyes and kept on licking his lollipop like a little kid. Jooheon furrowed his brows and pouted before turning to me, "Minhyuk thinks my neck is longer than normal! There's literally no difference between my neck and his, yet he keeps calling me a 'Jooraffe'!" he whined.

  I laughed and turned to Minhyuk hyung, "How can you even tell if someone's neck is abnormal?!" He once again rolled his eyes, I swear if he keeps doing that he'll end up seeing his brain. "I just can! It's a power; for example, I can tell Kihyun is shorter than normal! See?! I'm the almighty!" he tried to reason.

  He's ridiculous. Jooheon stepped forward and yanked the lollipop from his mouth and put it in his own. "Ew! What the heck, ya long-necked creature?!" he cursed and stood up to try and get his beloved lollipop back. Jooheon just laughed and held the lollipop in his hand up high while stretching his arm to tease and keep Minhyuk away from it.

  "What even..." a low voice murmured from behind. Dad— Seokjin.. closed the door behind him and placed some seemingly heavy paper bags on the floor and gave a weird gaze to the two bickering and fighting over a gross lollipop. The two guys he eyed froze in place and bowed to him while greeting in unison, "Hi, Seokjin hyung!" I stood up and walked to him as well to help him with the bags, and I was right, they were heavy.

  "What even are in these?!" I grunted. He chuckled, "Textbooks, school will start again soon you know." Oh right... school... I forgot about that place. Not like there's anything to miss anyway. "Oh, hey, Junki, how was your school back then in Canada?" Jooheon questioned. I sighed looking back at it, "Not so great." Minhyuk finally got his- 'lollipop'- from Jooheon and put it in his mouth again before giving me a curious look, "Why?"

  I avoided everyone's gaze before saying, "I get bullied in school," followed by a small nervous laugh. Despite not being able to see them, I just know their faces dropped. "Bullied?! Why?!" Dad screeched, just like when he found out for the first time.

  "Alright, sneak me in your bag when you fly back to Canada."

  I turned to the voice and see Minhyuk staring at me with a severe look, who SOMEHOW has a knife in his hand now. My eyes widen as I scan him down, "What the- NO?! WHEN DID YOU GET THAT KNIFE?!"

  Even Jooheon looked surprised, "Eh. I just have it around just incase," he simply shrugged as if he didn't do anything. All of a sudden, a phone rings. The sound came from Seokjin's pocket and he pulled out his phone.

[seokjin]

  "Hello?" I ask the person on the other line. "Hyung.... please... come," a sullen but familar voice say in a broken voice. "Chim?! What happened? Are you alright?!"

  "Yes.... just please, come..."

  I click my tongue and let out a soft 'okay'.  "I'll be right there, wait for me, okay?" I assure him and he only sniffles back. I hang up and meet eyes with the other three in the room, "I have to go guys." Minhyuk and Jooheon nod and Junki looks right at me and asks, "Can I come?"

Would you share a lollipop with someone?
