Chapter 37

Author's Note I was reading through the whole book again and I was laughing like hell at all the typos and auto-corrects that made no sense in the story. I'm going to edit this whole book soon.

I understand I haven't updated but I rather take a long time to update then update a half-assed chapter.

4 chapters to go.

Jimin's POV

Taehee sat down with the three of us sitting in front of her. She twitched uncontrollably and rubbed her neck on occasion but still didn't speak until she heaved a sigh.

Besides the fact I hugged her before, she still didn't say a word. Actually she seemed rather guilty and hesitant about what she was prepared to say. Whether or not it was bad, I just focused on the fact she sat in front of me. V who sat beside me, didn't open his mouth; we were finally back on good terms with each other, in spite of the previous 'fight' we had.

Without many words passed, I decided to try speaking first. "So....what's for dinner tonight?" I asked the first thing that came to my mind and I knew it was completely ridiculous and even more awkward than before.

Everyone stared at me at me blankly while Jungkook, face-palmed himself.

Clearing her throat, Taehee placed her clasped hands together on the table. "I understand the current situation we've all been in, living together in my house." We all nodded at once.

"Don't worry noona! We'll do the house work while you recover your memories." Jungkook sugar coated the words so he shot her a smile.

She shifted her eyes away and bit her lower lip.

"Actually I'm not really comfortable living with strangers."

A sharp pain stabbed me in the stomach and I felt myself flinch indiscreetly. I understood she sounded insensitive by calling us a stranger but there are no clear memories of us so I guess that does count as being strangers.

She cleared her throat and continued, "so could you please pick up everything of yours and leave."

I sighed and looked at her. Standing up, I stared at her for a while; the sparks in her eyes when we were together had been blown out like a candle light — just empty feelings and wavering feelings. Taking one more sigh, I breathed in deeply.

"W-what are you doing? Put me down!"

"You said pick up all everything of mine and leave." I picked her up into a princess carry, holding her tightly in my arms and hoisted her up slightly. "And you're mine."

Taehee struggled in my arms and she began hitting my chest. Honestly speaking, her large figure made it pretty difficult to carry. It was hard having a tall girlfriend while you weren't tall yourself; sadly when she wears heels, we're practically the same height, she may or may not be taller sometimes.

Staggering, I managed to keep my grounds while V and Jungkook gave out muffled chuckles as they watched me carry her out.

By the time I had opened the door, Taehed gave out one large, lengthy groan.

I swore I heard her mutter jerk under her breath but I ignored it never the less. It didn't matter what she thought of my actions at this point, I just needed to be able to stay here with her while she recovers her memories. "Fine, just stay. Instead we have to discuss boundaries."

Without another second wasted, I let her down and gave her a toothy smile. To which she replied with an unamused look.

"It's not like I like you or anything! It will just be nice for some people I use to know, stay around me." Taehee explained, turning her head to the side so her hair whipped me slightly. Her words reminded me of something, it was a Japanese term; I just couldn't remember what it was but I knew Taehee was being one right now.

Sitting down, we sat back in our former seats. On the table was everyone's special mug that we had gotten made together as a 'family' item, I guess you could say.

Taehee cleared her throat, trying to sound as serious as she could. "Since you all are staying here, you have to follow the rules in my house or you have to leave." The three of us nodded. "Number one, you are not allowed into my room without permission. Number two, everyone will need to cooperate to keep the house clean. Number three, any unwanted physical contact between us will contact as sexual harassment and I have probable cause to call the police."

While she continued listing down her rules, which I would probably break in time, I sat back and tried to remember the Japanese term.

V and Jungkook just sat there; however under the table, both V and Jungkook were playing on their PSPs and phones. So basically no one was technically listening to Taehee list down her new house rules.

"I got it. You're a tsundere."

"..."

They all stared at me with blank faces. Realizing I had said that out loud, I threw my hand over my mouth as an attempt to stop more stupid things from coming out of my mouth. No one spoke, adding to my embarrassment.

I rubbed circles around the rim of my cup and bit my lower lip, "someone say something."

"SOMETHING!"

Everyone snapped their head at V who had screamed it out, he had his flailed his hands in the air. A goofy grin plastered on his face as he jumped up like a child. Jungkook snapped his head to the side and his shoulders shook as he tried to muffle his laughter that came out in separate chuckles.

Quickly, I shifted my gaze over to Taehee who just wrinkled her forehead and rubbed her temples. She began muttering a few words under her breath.

My phone began flashing and I checked it, only to find Solbi sending me a message to open the door. I got off of my chair and walked to the door, taking my time which I knew would irk her. And how I was right.

Solbi was giving me a death glare right as I inched the door open. "I see you took your time Park Jimin." She muttered, grinding her teeth to suppress her anger.

I chuckled humourlessly and moved to the side to let her in.

For a second, I for sure hear her mumble words of hesitation to punch me in the gut, but fortunately V came to my side and invited her in. Solbi ended up sitting next to Taehee and clung onto.

Taehee attempted to push Solbi away, "y-yah let go idiot!" However in a few moments she casually brushed it off.

This was what I found strange. Taehee hated it when I even touched her, even though this was the same for Solbi, V and Jungkook when they hugged her, she acts hostile at first but gradually doesn't mind it one bit. However when I hugged her, she acted hostile the entire time and would scowl or even hiss at me.

My lips curved to a small pout which had been noticed by Taehee. Even the air around her has changed, she was no longer timid around new people but always had this intimidating aura. Her fashion sense had quickly changed as well, instead of her usually 'flower girl next door' ordeal, she wore more stylish articles of clothing. But she still looked astonishing to me. Her hair was lightly curled today which was unusual but cute never the less.

Somehow she was still carrying around the old bandana that she adores so much; it seemed familiar but it's not mine for sure.

As I continued staring at Solbi who was clinging onto Taehee as if her life depended on it. This obviously went seen by Solbi. Her lips slowly tugged up into a teasing smirk before she tightened her hold of the other girl.

"Jealous Jimin?" She asked, slowly as a way to mock me.

I scoffed and threaded my hands through my hair. "Not even close Solbi. But nice try anyway." I retaliated.

Subtly I glared at her and twitched my nose in her direction before turning away. Everyone else seemed to ignore the situation except for Taehee who seemed rather amused of our small quarrel.

Without much to say, I grunted loudly and rolled my eyes. "Besides the fact you two obviously annoy each other, why do you dislike each other." To my dismay, Solbi scoffed at my girlfriend — well ex-girlfriend's question and pointed at me with disgust. "He's a big jerk for making you cry all the time. Honestly you two are so cringe worthy with your small talks that it hurts. Don't even get me started on his witch ex-girlfriend." I pulled a face, scrunching it up in pique.

In a fit of annoyance, I drummed my fingers against the table. Taehee sighed indiscreetly at our childish behaviour.

"Solbi." She warned, in a rather stern voice. In a near instant, Solbi slapped her hand over her mouth and peered at Taehee. "Sorry Jimin." She apologise genuinely, realising she had gone too far.

Taehee's POV

Some more time passed by quickly, all the member's of Taehyung's group had come over as condolences and also to re-greet me. As soon as we conversed I had grasped onto the concept that the past me was quite close with all the members, particullary with J-Hope who once said he was my best friend.

Dinner time approached us and there was nothing we could cook; none of the boys had thought of shopping for the pantry while I was hospital and mostly ate take-away because cooking was too bothersome.

The red haired male, who was referred to as 'Suga', rolled his eyes and threw his head back while slouching on the chair. "So hungry....but don't wanna walk to a restaurant or fridge. Why is life so hard?" He groaned.

Sighing, I stood up from my seat. "I'm going to buy some dinner. Don't ruin everything while I'm gone." I said, picking up my wallet.

Taehyung hummed as a response and waved goodbye to me. "Bye Tsunhee. Don't forget to buy snacks and soft drinks." I scoffed and threw a tissue box at his face. Lazy asshole. I thought in my head.

Jimin stood up at the same time as J-Hope. "I'll come with you Taehee." They said in unison. I raised an eyebrow at the two, wondering if they ever rehearsed this.

Never the less, I shrugged and told them to follow. Because of a small delay involving everyone talking us what snack they wanted, we nearly missed the bus. The two debated childishly about who was going to sit next to me on the bus and I was honestly thankful that nearly all the bus riders were wearing earphones. In the end, I forced the two boys to sit together and called them morons.

I threaded my hair with my fingers before giving out a loud breath. This bus ride was actually very long now that I thought about it.

The bus had yet stopped even once since our departure and the restaurant we were going to was a few stops away. I glanced out into the dark scenery and widened my eyes as the scenery was definitely not the city of Seoul.

Now I realised, I'm not even sure what bus we were suppose to go on. I don't remember.

"Hey you two morons." I called out to the duo who were still arguing. They averted their attention towards me and watched me closely. "Yes?" They replied in unison.

I stifled a chuckle as they actually responded to me calling them morons. "I'm pretty sure we got on the wrong bus." I pointed to the scenery and noticed as their faces slowly changed to a rather mortified expression.

"V is going to pull salt and water on my bed and add seaweed!" Jimin shrieked.

My eyebrow twitched and I rubbed my temples. "That's not the problem right now is it? I don't care if your bed is going to become the Ariel's home!" I scolded, huffing loudly despite the attention caught by the other passengers.

Finally the bus came to a halt and to our pleasant surprise the outside was raining cats and dogs. We were arguing loudly in the bus that we didn't hear the soft sound of rain.

Deciding it would be vest to stay in a hotel for the night, because there was no transport available and all our phones were dead, mine being the last one to die right after I called Jin to tell him about our situation. He said it was best to not travel when it was raining this  much.

So now the three of us stood in the room awkwardly, our clothes dripping wet and our body's gently shivering from the cold.

In the middle of the room stood a single queen sized bed.

I nearly laughed at the irony that there was a single room left available in this stupid hotel. Actually the whole situation was comical, getting off the bus at the wrong stop and getting stranded at the side of Seoul's countryside until the next day.

"Okay so Taehee and I should get the bed." Jimin announced as he plopped his stuff down, which was only his spare jacket and phone that was dead.

J-Hope placed his hand on his hip and raised his chin up slightly. "What why?"

Twirling around, Jimin gave him a look that meant 'isn't-it-obvious'. "What do you mean why!? I'm her boyfriend."

"Allege boyfriend." I butted in the conversation.

My comment made Jimin pout deeply while put a smile on J-Hope's face as he thrusted his hand in the air triumphantly. "Yeah Jimin. Taehee's on her best friend's side, which is also why you should give me the bed."

Rolling my eyes, I butted in the conversation once again. "Allege best friend."

The two complained on further until I had enough. My head was throbbing from they're childish arguement, I stood up in front of the other two and rubbed my arms for extra warmth. "You two wimps can share the bed, there's no way in hell I'm sleeping with either of you so I'll be on the couch."

I flopped myself on the couch and pulled a blanket over my self as I laid my head on the soft couch cushion. On the side I could hear the grumbles and protests from both Jimin and J-Hope.

I shut my eyes and inwardly sighed.

They're both fools.
