' hyung Eww! Don't touch—yukk!'

Jungkook's bunny form irked, stretching out it's neck and face away from the latter's grip, who strongly held its furry body up and continued to run his hands all over it and smooch it's neck and pinky ears.

Well, after three hours of entertaining the two lads by being their stupid playtoy, the poor bunny was now getting 'harassed' by their dad.

' You ungrateful brat! Fuck! We almost thought you'd never come back!'

Jimin exclaimed through their linked minds, still petting tiny jungkook's body.

' ehh—whatever, nuh!'

'Not on the nose!'

' sheesh! Not On NOOOO—'

The bunny squirmed and churned in Jimin's grip, mentally disgusted by the flooding affection, yet extremely delighted to finally get into familiar hands. Also his struggles in the jungle have came to an end and the huge question of finding ways to reach you was miraculously solved.

The kit somehow managed to break free from Jimin's hold and bounced back on the coffee table, where the basket of fruits were kept.

' Gawd! Lemme eat first can ya!?'It grumpily roared, it's twitchy nose flared whilst and continued to throw feisty glares at the latter.

The fur ball scooted nearer to the basket attacking the quietly seated fruits. Strawberries seemed to grab its attention again. Though it was quite sure it'd fucking devour everything that catches its eyes.

But seemed to have different plans when he gripped its two ears with his fingers and dragged the little creatures body back. Jungkook nonetheless squeaked and motioned to dash back towards its food but Jimin held it in place making it look like it's running on a trademill.

' If you're done taking advantage of my helplessness then leave me or........or I'mma cry now!!'

Jimin broke into fits of hysterical laughters after pissing the shit outta him.

" Sure, your highness." He mocked humourous ly and chuckled afterwards.

' No doubt those annoying twerps are your kids.'

The bunny plainly commented with a deadpan. Later moved back to help its hunger.

" So" Jimin breathed a few minutes later.

" How'd you end up there in that jungle??" Jimin inquired, crossing his leg over the other, eyes on the bunny.

' stupid question.'It replied.

' *chews* *gulps*  You already know it, hyung. The infinity portal opens in that jungle pheww~'

Jimin's mouth opened to form an 'o' of utter realisation. He drifted deep into thoughts.

' But it's still hard to accept that it's been five years here...' jungkook lets out a hurtful squeak laying its head flat on the glass surface with its fluffy ears dropping down as if upset.

Jimin petted and caressed its fur sympathetically." It's okay, we can't just help the time difference, young prince."He shrugged.

Jungkook scurried away, throwing a glare at him.

' ex-prince.' it corrected.

' and also, stap touching me soo much! It's starting to trusfrate me!'

Jimin chortled looking at how seriously dangerous it wanted to sound but its 2kg cutie patootie self made it look like it's just flustered in tiny.

" I see, you don't look like you really want to transform into your human form again." Jimin voiced out, getting its nerve.

The supposedly exasperated bunny rolled its body. And finally jumped in the latter's lap. It stretched it paws out sluggishly and sprawled its tiny body out, prepared itself.

' Go on. Touch me then.'

( They need human touch to transform into their human forms if anyone forgot.)

•••

' Hyung no! FUCKING HELL! I hate waterr—noo! '

Jungkook screeched in Jimin's head, kicking its four paws in eight directions as it vigorously squirmed in Jimin's hold, up high in the air with its lower paws almost dipping in the bathtub.

" Oh god, it's just water! Even my two year olds ain't scared from it" Jimin exclaimed in disbelief and disappointment, rolling his eyes at the bunny.

" Who are you tawking to dad?" Said jihyung, undefined eyebrows pointing together and he questioned out his confusion. " Nevermind, baby. Now shall we wash this dirty bunny up?" He smoothly answered with an excited yet evil grin on his face.

" Yayy! Bunny bathey bathey!" Taemin squealed, jumping on his feet on the grey restroom tiles, thrilled to watch their new friend bath.

Nonetheless, the agressive struggling of the rabbit, jimin turned a deaf ear, bathing it in the cold water whilst the other small humans enjoyed the show.

A few minutes was all it took to dismantle the bunny's hope to escape the bathing part, yet, there it sat quiet and defeated, cutely wrapped in towels like a burrito, playing to be a toy for the lads who kept touching it everywhere.

It did feel a pinch better when Jimin blew it up with the hair dryer though, but the bunny was still grumpy and annoyed.

" Okay. So now it's time to dress you up! " Jimin clapped his hands as he announced after a sigh, making the clueless jungkook suspicious of his next move.

" Why we dwessing it dadda—"

' same ?'

" Because presents should be wrapped, Minmin-ah." He cheekily smiled only making the kid's frown to deepen.

' huh—?'

" Is bunny a pwesent?" Jihyung blinked innocently and Jimin nodded with the same stupid grin." It is hyungie baby!"

' can you just drop the fuckery and quickly send me to her ?' The said bunny yawned, showcasing the two front bunny teeth of its whilst whining in boredom.

•••

" Hmm....It looks nice but...." Jimin scratched his head as he observed his work through his crinkled brows.

( Couldn't find a bunny who fits the description and situation at the same time so, kindly don't mind it)

' but...? I thought I looked cool, hyung? ' The insecure bunny doubtfully raised up a paw to touch its nose where the mini goggle might be sitting, trying to fix it, as it innocently peered at its temporary owner.

Jimin took the goggle off. " Welp, I guess it's a bit umm... overdone...? Yeah.." He said.

" But this is the third one, dad!" Jihyung stated, folding his small over his smaller chest.

Jimin trailed off, thinking for a better outfit for the bunny until Taemin exclaimed.

" Dadddeee! Look what Minmin got!" Taemin sprinted towards Jimin, his hand holding up a roll of ribbon that he waved, giggling.

A smile curved up Jimin lips, only to widen later with another mischievous idea booming in his head.

' I hate that evil smile '

•••

( Matches the description, perfectly)

' Hyung are you sure she'll recognise me?'

The buck gazed up hopefully with its shiny marble-like eyes, prettily perched on the 'ceo's desk'.

" Let's hope for the best." Jimin's lips sealed in a thin-lipped smile as he shrugged his shoulders begrudgingly.

' hyung, I still can't digest it's been five damn years. How will she react hyung? What if she doesn't love me anymore?? Why the fuck do you keep telling me find it out on my own!? God I can't believe I'm getting to see her again! But fuck! I'm so nervous'

The fur ball simply spammed Jimin's head with its anxious and never-ending rantings.

With its heart rate pacing up in anxiety, the little ball of fur begun to sprint back and forth on the huge glass surface, making the coquette blow back in motion along with its floppy lop.

' nervous nervous nervous nervous—Bunny so nervous!'

It chanted as it dashed all over the desk, wrecking the things kept over it with its four furry paws. The impatiently wild rabbits was caught in time by the elder man before it could accomplish it's mission to demolish all the stuff on the table.

The bunny squirmed in the uncomfortable grip. " Gosh, jungkookie, chill out, chill out, at this rate you mess up the whole cabin." He whisper yelled with frantic expressions.

' okay, calming down, hyung. But what am I supposed to do here??'

" Look just sit stationarily on the desk until she comes okay??"Jimin said while caressing its fur to calm it down. To which jungkook agressively shook its head, jerking away Jimin's hand from him.

' Jeez hyung, I know I'm soft and furry but that doesn't mean that you could keep touching me! I hate touchess!'

And there we go again with the bunny's sulky but tryna be tough 'roars'.

" Err, wait— *chuckles* don't make laugh again, I've got a lot to do. And ah, Sofia said shijin will be here around 7 (p.m.)" He informed curtly and prepared his leave.

" Until then, behave like a civilized bunny yeah?" Jimin squinted his eyes at the younger, terrifying the bunny with his sharp gaze and stern voice.

The fur ball curled itself in a smol ball by tucking its tiny paws beneath its body. It make a weak sound of approval.

' bye hyung'

Jimin patted its twitchy nose with his index finger and exited after giving it a thumbs up along with a courageous grin.

~ Shijin's POV ~

Five days, five whole days of me getting drunk and pulled another stupid stunt, again, fucking again, all over again.

Heels clamped on the tiled floor as I  marched my way back towards my cabin after inspecting the whole building, which I do quite regularly.Scolding and pissing the employees has become a way to provide me with cheap thrills. As how unprofessional and cheap it sounds, it is actually true. True, when my life literally blank and devoid of anything, it's just, Blank.

Just yesterday, I dodged the party at namjoon's in which he was supposedly announcing his official wedlock along with his girlfriend, now fiance's first pregnancy. What could be the reason? It's absolutely not because I'll feel triggered and my once green and beautiful life crashes infront of my eyes, seeing the new couple, making me feel more outcast and empty.

Definitely not. It was rather because I, out of nowhere, fell sick. Sounds convincing enough?

How humourous this was but it still couldn't bring even a little smile on my always poker face. As much as I want to smile, but then I realise, I literally have nothing to smile upon, as such.

I sighed, tucked my hands in my pant pockets. " Mr. Choi, Make a call to namjoon summoning him in my office." I ordered my manager, who was closely chasing behind me.

" Sure thing, Ma'am." He obediently nodded, fishing his phone out from his coat and doing what is told.

Now the only thing that I could do after putting down namjoon's hopes in me by missing out on an important night of his life with an absolutely lame reason, was to make it up to him by giving him his due presents from yesterday.

Not that I'm bitchy or something, I'm happy for him and his small family. But word family, ignites a cold flame within me. I've yearned for this 'family' my whole life, but being god's favourite, I'm honoured to live empty and lonely all my life.

And through the years, I've somehow accepted my fate. Let it be, I'll just embrace the loneliness, is what I chanted. I'm used to it anyways, very much....

The elevator dinged and opened, I glanced at my wrist watch before making my way towards the office.The corridors were silent and empty since the working hours are almost over, now it's just me and few others who'll sit and work their ass off in here until pleased.

I strode to my cabin with the usual nonchalant expressions on my face.I pushed the glass door open and a breeze of serene air hit my bare face.

~ Author's POV ~

The mini lop's big fluffy ears stood up high, sensing the vague trail of footsteps that forwarded their way to it. Like a swift prey reflex, it hopped down in panic, its instincts leading it to hide behind the wooden desk.

Curious, doe-eyed ball of fur ducked its head out, sideways, to sneak a peek of the said danger.

Danger.

Yes, it surely proved to be the most dangerous thing in the world for its fragile heart to ever take.

The glass door was pushed open, blowing back the long and shiny locks of your dark brown hair. Gorgeous and perfect face glimmered like it always has. The grey formal attire that you were clad in, defined your body to perfection.

The buck's eyes widened in slow motion, it felt like all the oxygen was knocked out from its lungs, its heart thumping ever to furiously that it might blast in mere seconds, the world around it halted for a moment just to give it the golden opportunity to lay its eyes on her. Your charisma numbed its senses and the oddly familiar strawberry and vanilla like sweet scent took it up to the heaven.

Finally after five years, its eyes, that yearned and dithered and longed to get a single glimpse of you, felt blessed.

' My Princess.....'

But,

The bunny was harshly yanked back from its tranquil charisma as it saw a man walking behind you.

' Wait—A man with thick thighs and dimples? Who's he?!!!!!!'

You turned around to face namjoon.A gentle smile curving up your lips, you closed in the gap and reached out him, only to wrap him in a content hug. The latter gave you his dimply smile as he hugged you back.

" I'm so happy for you, Joon! Congratulations to you and mina! " You exclaimed patting his back and he chuckled before mouthing a " Thank you so much, Shijin-ah! "

The joy was short-lived for the bunny, a moment it couldn't contain its heartbeats and the very next moment its heart stopped beating. Its bunny ears suddenly dropped flat against its head. The black marble-like eyes watered as it witnessed the brutally hurtful scene unfold in front of its eyes.

What shred its heart to painful pieces was your change of expression that occurred once your gaze fell on namjoon. This couldn't be how you exactly greet everyone, every man, by laughing and hugging them so tight.

' isn't he the....the photographer? Why is she so close to him? Please Jesus, I beg you! They-they're nothing like I'm thinking. No no no, they aren't, they can't, no please,

she's mine. I'm not late, pleaseee'

" As much we wanted you to come yesternight.....well, it's okay. Are you alright now?" Namjoon's voice was grazed with a pinch of disappointment but being the gentleman he is, he concealed it with another assuring smile of his when he asked for your well being.

You nodded with the never-ending smile. " I'm sorry, it just became impossible at the moment and oh! thanks for your concern, I'm quite fine now, joon."

" I see...but why do I still feel like something's fishy." He suspiciously narrowed his eyes at you and scanned you from head to toe before he trailed. " You don't seem like—" you smack his shoulder to cut him off and then started laughing your ass out to possibly divert the topic.

" Jeez, come on. Just stop using your tremendous IQ for once and think about...about your baby instead, you stupid soon-to-be daddy."

' Fuck no! NO! FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK! THIS CAN'T FUCKING HAPPEN! Sh-she..... My princess is even pr-eggnant with that bastard's baby...?'

At this point, it felt like all the life outta it was sucked. The fluff ball hilariouly sprawled out flat on the floor, heart-broken and dead after the truth struck it like a bolt of lightning.

You grabbed the bags from the couch and presented it to him before he could open his mouth to protest anything." Hope you like the present!" You grinned and he took it from your hands, looking back and forth from your face to the bag.

" Ayee, there ain't a bomb in there, you moron" You deadpanned with a bitter smile.

" Nah, your smile is sussed. You look too happy to be true." He raised a brow. " You're not—" he was cut off again. " Just fuck off, I'm off byee." You spat suddenly and frantically waved at him before storming out of the room in panick.

You weren't interested in acting dramatic all of a sudden but you were just forced. You had promised him a bunch of times that you'd move on with life and try to be happy, and now that you had greatly broke all of those, you could atleast save him from getting utterly offended and disappointed when he gets to know that you've faked your happy and self-sufficient life just to keep him outta your forever pathetic life.

After a dumbfounded namjoon exited, it was just jungkook in the cabin, thoughtless yet hurt. Its paws shivered as if it's the coldest night, as it mindlessly rushed after you.

After pretending to leave the office, yet you were there in the restroom, waiting for namjoon to disperse, so you could peacefully make use of your insomnia in your cabin. Yeah, insomnia, one from the trunk of your medical complications. Being 'Celline's workaholic CEO' you learned to make use of your insomnia.

Clicking of your heels was the only noise heard on the particular floor when you walked towards your cabin.

What made you halt on your tracks, with an instant frown crossing you eyebrows was the sight of....

A coquetted bunny ?
