🍯Because Of You🍯

[Saturday, December 19th]
[10 am]
"Everest, wake up." A soft and familiar voice said. I open my eyes to see Taeil beside me. "Huh? Why do you look so tired?" I asked. "I stayed up all night packing your bags. You're staying with us." He said while holding my hand. "But why-" I, again, got cut off by Taeil. "I can't let you stay here. It's to dangerous." Taeil said. He pulled me out of bed and woke up the others.

After we got everything settled we drove off.
"Isn't this kidnapping?" I asked. "Maybe... we kidnapping you for a good reason though." Jeffrey said, probably thinking he the smartest bitch alive. Hmm, whatever I couldn't stand another day with him so... I thought to myself.

We got to their house and holy fuck.

We walked inside and 2 of their friends greeted me at the door as the 9 men walked pass. "Hello, I'm Kun. Welcome." The man who looked to be in his mid 20's said with a warm smile. "Hey. I'm YangYang." A really adorable boy who looked to be in his early 20's said. "Hello." I said, partially smiling.

I walked pass them and meet this other cute but short fella. "Hello. I'm YoungHeum. Let me show you to you and Sungchan's room." He said. I followed him and walked into this beautiful room.

"This is your room. Please, enjoy yourself." YoungHeum said.

He walked out the room and in comes a beautiful, tall, kind looking male. So this is Sungchan aye? I thought, surprised about how cute my roomie is. "Hello!" The young boy said, smiling ever so cutely. "Hi. You're Sungchan right?" I asked. "Yes. I'm Sungchan. You're Everest?" He asked. "Yes." I replied, shivering. "You look cold. Go to the bathroom down the hallway and change. Taeil already put half of your stuff in the closet." Sungchan said, pointing to the closet. I walk over to the closet and pull out this outfit:

I walk out and meet another boy. Renjun is his name. The only reason I know is because Johnny brought him over once. We greeted each other and continued walking where ever we were going beforehand.

I walk downstairs and go to their kitchen.

I probably shouldn't eat... I don't know I'm really hungry... I'll just eat some chips I thought as I walked over to the chips and started to eat some. I see Johnny walk down the stairs and when he sees me eating he runs over to me and hugs me. "My sissy is finally eating something!" He said. "Why are you so happy?" I said while giggling. "Bitch I haven't seen you eat in a week." He replied.

[1 pm]
Me, Jeno, Jisung, and Jaemin sit down in the living room. "So... who in here has a crush?" Jisung asked. We all raised our hands. "I have a crush on Taeil." I said, blushing hard. "I have a crush on Chenle." Jisung said. "We have a crush on each other..." Jeno said pointing at Jaemin. "By the way Everest... look who's behind you..." Jisung said. I turn around hoping to see Johnny but instead I see the one and only Taeil. My face turned more red than it already was, knowing that he heard me say I have a crush on him.

Taeil grabbed my wrist and brings me into his bedroom. "You have a crush on me, aye?" He asked. "Yeah... uhm... I know it's been like 3 days, maybe, but yeah... I like you..." I said while looking at the floor. "It's ok... I like you too... I'm just not ready for a relationship yet though..." He said with a gentle tone. I said I understood and I went back downstairs and he went to Johnny and YoungHeum's room. "Ooh~ what'd he say!?" They all said. "He said he's not ready for a relationship... I completely understand though. We only met a few days ago." I said as I sat back down.

[Taeil's Point Of View]
I walk into Johnny and YoungHeum's room after telling Everest that I'm not ready for a relationship, feeling bad. I open the doors to the bedroom and what I see doesn't surprise me at this point. They are just sitting there on the bed, painting each others fingernails... like normal besties do, right? No. They both liked each other but we're too scared to tell.
"Oh hello, Taeil." Johnny said. "Hi?" I said back. "Do you-" Johnny got cut off by me🤭. "No, I don't want my fingernails painted." I said. Johnny patted the bed with his palm. I walk over to the bed and sit.
"Ok, what's wrong with you?" YoungHeum asked. "I told Everest I wasn't ready for a relationship yet and she said she understood but I could see the pain in her eyes and I feel really bad." I explained. "If she said she understood then she probably did. She's not a complicated girl." Johnny said. I nodded my head, thanked them for some dumb reason, and then left.

[3 pm]
[Everest Point Of View]
I was sitting on my bed, talking to Sungchan, when I heard a knock at the door. I opened the door and there stands Taeil. "Hey... Uhm... I have to go somewhere... if you need anything Ten is here. Just letting you know." He said as he smiled then walked away. "What'd he say?" Sungchan asked. "He just wanted to let me know that he was going somewhere... that's all" I said.

I go down stairs and see something... I'm not surprised by anything at this point. They could have a dragon and I wouldn't be surprised... 🙄🖐🏻 . Wondering what I saw? A fucking dance room. Again, not surprised. I decide to practice dancing cause I wanted to be like my cousin, Baekhyun. I go back upstairs and change into this.

I then head back to the dance room, turn on the music, and let my body do its thing.

After that I heard tons of wows, clapping, and even whistling. I turn around and see all 23 of the boys cheering me on.
