the night passed by with their hearts and minds filled with dread and hope.
namjoon was the first one to wake up as he lounged in the living room, contemplating on the discussion they had on the previous night.
next was yoongi, who still had toothpaste on the side of his cheek, he sat on the seat next to namjoon as he greeted him.
"you have something on your cheek." namjoon spoke, pointing on his left cheek, yoongi wiped his right cheek in which the unwashed toothpaste once laid.
"good morning, guys."
hoseok greeted them with a smile, rubbing his eyes after.
"you seem happy." yoongi grinned.
"of course, last night was the first night i've felt fine ever since last week and these terrifying situations, i think sleeping alone isn't a good idea anymore." hoseok shrugged.
"how's taehyung?" namjoon asked, concern laced in his voice.
"oh, he's good. he's just complaining about the mark on his arm being ugly and such." hoseok snorted.
"that's good to know." yoongi nodded.
"what's up?"
they turned to see lisa, with jisoo on her back in a piggyback. the two girls were smiling, which was surprising.
"lisa, jisoo, good morning!" hoseok beamed at the girls who sat next to them.
"how's your sleep?" namjoon turned to them.
"very comfy, it felt so good, like the first peaceful sleep i had in a while." lisa gave them a thumbs up as she put jisoo on the couch.
"that's odd, i've had the nicest sleep too." hoseok's eyes widened.
"that's weird." jisoo frowned.
"did you have any trouble last night, lisa?" yoongi questioned to the brunette.
"not really. all i could remember was sleeping on jisoo unnie's lap and i felt like sleeping on christmas morning." lisa sighed.
"don't forget to tell us if you feel like something's wrong, alright?" jisoo wrapped her arms around the girl.
"of course, unnie." lisa gave her a small smile.
"i see you guys are awake."
jennie walked in the room, wearing a thick sweater while hugging her arms as she yawned.
"it's not even christmas yet you're already cold." hoseok snickered.
"it's not my fault jisoo unnie hogs the air-conditioner so it was on us for the whole night!" jennie scowled at jisoo who smiled sheepishly.
"hey, it's very hot, you know?" jisoo rolled her eyes.
"so that's why chae and i would always wake up feeling hot." lisa scoffed with a sly smile.
"next time, let's all share a bed so we don't feel hot." jisoo shrugged.
"ah, now i know why the electrical bill's gone high all of a sudden!"
they all turned behind them to see seokjin standing there, his hands on his hips.
"it's hot, jin oppa!" lisa shrugged.
"yeah, i know i'm hot, but at least save some electricity, i'm the one paying all of these shits." seokjin sneered at them while pointing at every single one of them.
"i'm not even using the air-conditioner!" yoongi complained.
"whatever, i'll be cooking breakfast." seokjin huffed before trudding on the way to the kitchen.
"good morning!"
taehyung, jimin, jungkook and chaeyoung entered the room, waving at them.
"hey!" they greeted as the four sat at the available seats.
"how's your mark, tae?" hoseok asked.
"i don't think it's looking good." taehyung grimaced before gently removing the bandage around it, revealing the mark to the rest.
"that's gross!" jisoo covered her eyes as the others did the same.
"i'm now regretting that i asked." hoseok fake gagged as he rubbed his arms.
the mark was now gone of its bruised phase, it was now a bit red, dry blood around it, it was looking more swollen with what seemed like yellow pus oozing out of the wound.
"i don't think i have an appetite to eat today." chaeyoung grimaced as she covered her mouth from throwing up.
"i'm thankful for watching horror movies, now i have a strong stomach." lisa sighed in relief.
"is that even a mark? that looks like a skin infection, ew!" jennie scowled as she looked away.
"don't think about disgusting things, don't think about disgusting things." jimin closed his eyes as he repeated.
"now i'm feeling insecure." taehyung huffed in annoyance.
they heard the doorbell ring as everyone flinched at the loud sound that echoed throughout the house.
"nope, i'm not opening the door this time." hoseok raised both of his hands in defense as he scooted closer to the corner of the couch.
no one dared to stand up as they looked at each other, trying to send a signal through telepathy.
"you lazy brats." jisoo scoffed as she stood up, walking to the door before opening it.
she was greeted by the sight of jiwon and seojoon, holding tight smiles and holding bags.
"jiwon, seojoon! thank you so much for coming!" jisoo opened the door wider for them as the couple entered their home.
the rest on the living room stood up when they heard who arrived, greeting their expected guests.
"hi, i'm jiwon and this is seojoon, my husband, we're namjoon's cousins." jiwon said as she looked at everyone with a stern face.
"i know you, you're the one we visited a day ago, right?" lisa spoke up as they looked at her, surprised.
they didn't expect her to know or recognize jiwon at all.
jiwon turned to them with a small smile, "don't worry i don't think we'll need to pretend for now, this is your friend right here." she said as she stared at lisa.
everyone sighed in relief while lisa remained puzzled but shrugged it off.
"so, i guess we could discuss a few things later?" namjoon asked as he scratched the back of his neck, eager to share the new piece of information they had gathered last night.
"sure but before that, let's all eat breakfast." seojoon gave them a goofy smile as he raised two plastic bags, which had food inside.
they immediately heard seokjin cuss in the kitchen.
