Part : 4

Time skip to Evening,

At Suga's mansion,

Taehyung and Jungkook came back from college and walked side by side through the gate, casually arguing about cars

Taehyung : No, I’m telling you, if we buy a convertible it’ll be useless in monsoon! Sedan is better! And we already have 2 convertible cars! *cold*

Jungkook : *rolling his eyes* Hyung, you have zero taste in cars! Convertible is class and those both cars are used by Suga hyung and namjoon hyung! I want my own! *annoyed* Imagine me pulling up in campus, roof down---

Before he could finish, the sudden rat a tat of gunshots echoed through the house, Both of them froze, their eyes snapped toward each other in shock and they both sprinted inside, Jungkook flung his schoolbag across the floor, and his shoes screeched against the tiles, Taehyung’s heart sank, as he clenched his fists and screamed at the top of his lungs

Taehyung : HYUNGS! *worried*

Jungkook : Y/N! *worried*

As they turned the corner, they stopped dead, The big TV in the living room was blaring with a crime thriller movie, Actors on the screen were shooting wildly and, their shouts were filling the room, Taehyung let out a long sigh and stomped to the remote, switching the TV off

Taehyung : Seriously? Who leaves the TV like this... Scared me to death! *angry*

Jungkook rubbed his chest, still catching his breath

Jungkook : I-I thought... damn, I thought something happened! *gulped*

Taehyung : But where's hyung! *angry* HYUNG!

A voice came from behind, calm as always

Rm : Say? *confused*

They spun around and  saw Namjoon was walking in, adjusting his hoodie as if he had just come from outside

Taehyung : You were out? Then who’s with Y/N? *confused*

Namjoon tilted his head casually

RM : Suga hyung? They were in the studio together! *confused*

Taehyung raised a brow, exchanging a confused look with Jungkook and without a word, he went toward the studio but when he peeked inside, the lights were off And No one was there

Y/n : NOOO! Leave me! *crying*

All three of them froze and bolted upstairs, They followed her voice straight into Suga's room,The door was ajar, and from inside came the sound of splashing water, Taehyung and Rm exchanged a look, They hesitated, then peeked into the bathroom but the sight almost made Jungkook burst into laughter

Suga, completely drenched from head to toe, was struggling to get Y/n bathed, She clung to him like a koala, her legs were splashing water everywhere, and her small hands were gripping his wrist so tightly that his knuckles were turning white

Suga : Kitten, you need to bathe! Stop fighting me! Baby! *soft*

Y/N : *squeezing her eyes shut* N-No! Don’t! It’s dark! *scared*

Suga exhaled deeply as his patience was  thinning, his wet bangs were sticking to his forehead, He was trying to coax her but at the same time, gently force her to finish

The three boys at the door collectively sighed in relief

Taehyung : Unbelievable... She scared us for this! *smile*

Jungkook smirked, leaning against the doorframe with crossed arms

Jungkook : *easing loudly* She’s still scared of the dark bath, huh? *smirk*

At that, Suga turned his head sharply, glaring at the doorwaY, Y/N’s eyes fluttered open, and when she spotted Jungkook’s smug face, her anger sparked instantly

She grabbed the nearest soap and hurled it with all her might, It smacked Jungkook right in the cheek, making him stumble back

Jungkook : Arghh! Are you crazy?! minus! *angry*

Y/N reached for another bottle to throw, but Suga caught her hand mid-air

Suga : No! *stern*

Y/N : Then Tell him to go! Oppa! *annoyed*

Suga's eyes narrowed, and his deep glare shoot straight at Jungkook

Suga : Jk! Out! *cold*

Jungkook gulped, his smirk instantly vanished and without another word, he backed away, muttering under his breath

Jungkook : Can't even joke in this house anymore...huh Minus! *angry*

Rm and Taehyung exchanged looks, both trying not to laugh, before following Jungkook out

Inside the bathroom, Suga adjusted Y/N’s wet hair from her face, and cupper her cheeks

Suga : Kitten, open your eyes! I’m here! Nothing’s dark when I’m here, right? *soft*

Y/N sniffled, loosening her grip slightly, and Suga exhaled deeply, tightening his arms around Y/N so she wouldn’t slip, His T shirt clung to his body, completely soaked and Y/N still had her eyes shut tight, gripping him as if letting go would throw her into some dark abyss

Suga : Kitten, do you hear me? Be a brave girl! Come on--

Y/n : Don’t care! I’m not bathing! Don't pour water on me! Oppa! Please! *scared*

Suga looked at her eyes and shifted, sitting on the bathroom floor with her in his lap, Water splashed everywhere, but he didn’t care and wiped her face with his bare hands

Suga : open your eyes, come on! I'm not doing anything! *soft*

Y/n opened her eyes and looked at Suga

Y/n : Done? *blinked*

Suga : *chuckled* did you even let me pour water on you? Hmm?

Y/n : B-but whenever I close my eyes, I feel like I'm drowning! Oppa! *gulped*

Suga : I know! Kitten! Some people have phobia! But we have to overcome your fear, right?

Y/n : But--

Suga : But nothing! I know you're not bathing properly because of fear! *stern*

Y/n : Oppa! Please! *whined*

Suga: Kitten! Don't force me! Come on! *stern* and lights are on! I'm here, no need to be scared! Okay? *stern*

Y/n : *pout* Okay!

She finally loosened her grip, letting him lather her hair gently, He worked with slow, careful hands, making sure she never felt like she was alone in the dark water, Every few seconds, he told her softly

Suga : See? Nothing scary! Just you and me, kitten! *soft*

For once, she didn’t resist, She let him wash her hair, dry her face, and help her out of the tub, before leaving the bathroom, Y/N clung to him and Suga smiled at her

Y/n : Thank you, oppa! *smile*

Suga : *chuckled* Always! Now go and wear something warm before you catch cold! *smile*

Y/n nodded at him and run to door,holding the towel around her body, Suga looked at her disappearing figure while removing his wet shirt and yelled

Suga : And don't wear Jk's T-shirt! Kitten! *annoyed*

Y/n : Not promising anything! *chuckled*

Suga shook his head and sighed, Meanwhile, Rm, Taehyung, and Jungkook were sitting on dining table when Taehyung looked at Rm

Taehyung : Hyung! I'm ordering a pizza! Do you want something?

Rm : What? No! Don't order anything! Y/n already has stomachache and if she sees you eating pizza, She'll insist! *worried*

Taehyung : *nodded* Yeah sorry! I forgot about that! Then what about dinner? Hyung? did hyung already cook anything for us? I'm so hungry! *annoyed*

Rm: I don't know! Let me check! *pout*

He stood up and went to kitchen when Taehyung moved his gaze to Jungkook who was still rubbing the side of his face dramatically

Taehyung : What happened to you? *confused*

Jungkook : That minus! *annoyed* She threw the soap like she’s a baseball player! My face still hurts! *angry*

Taehyung burst into laughter, clutching his stomach and shook his head

Taehyung : You deserved it! Who tells a scared kid about her fears? Pabo! *chuckled* and at least now you know princess' aim is better than yours! *smirk*

Jungkook :Hyung, not you too! You didn’t even see her! she's is more dangerous than the gang outside! Remember that! *annoyed* Poor Suga hyung! He’s probably drowning in there! *annoyed*

Right then,Suga walked in the dining room, drying his hairs by towel, looking every bit as composed as if he hadn’t just wrestled a little tornado in the bathroom

Taehyung : Finally! If we had to wait one more minute, hyung, I would go out to eat! *annoyed*

Suga : *sighed* Stop it! Tae! I already made the dinner! Can't you go in the kitchen and take it? *annoyed*

He went directly in the kitchen and Taehyung lazily scrolled his phone

Taehyung : Hyung! You already know I'm banned in the kitchen! *annoyed*

Suga : Only for cooking! *angry* don't make excuses infront of me! Tae!

He came with plates and Rm came behind him, holding other trays, he looked around and looked at Suga

Rm : Hyung! Where's y/n? *confused*

Suga : She would be in her room, probably thinking what she should wear at this time! *shook his head*

Jungkook : *scoffed* You really spoiled her hyung! *annoyed*

Taehyung : *smirk* Don't be jealous! Jk!

Jungkook : I'm not jealous--

Y/n : OPPA! look, how does this dress look on me? *excited*

They turned back and Y/n twirled around, Suga and Rm passed a smile and Taehyung acted like he fell down in her beauty, she chuckled and run to them, plopped into her seat beside Jungkook, who rolled her eyes at her, and Suga sat next to her like her quiet guard

Taehyung : This color really suits on you! Baby! *smile*

Suga : every color suits on her! *smile*

He caressed her hairs and dinner began with that chatter, Midway through, Suga put down his chopsticks, cleared his throat, and Everyone looked at him

Suga : Everyone! Tomorrow, take a leave! We’re going shopping! *cold*

Chopsticks froze mid air, Rm and Taehyung confusingly looked at each other and Jungkook & Y/n eyes sparkled

Jungkook & Y/N : *together* Shopping?! *excited*

Both of them leaned forward, practically bouncing in their seats and Suga gave a small nod

Taehyung : What? But why so sudden? *annoyed*

Suga : We didn’t even go last month! *cold*

Namjoon nodded in agreement, already calculating schedules in his head but Taehyung leaned back, opening his mouth to protest

Taehyung : Hyung, I don’t need--

Rm : Your gym clothes are out of date! You’re buying new ones tomorrow! *angry*

Taehyung’s jaw snapped shut, He rolled his eyes, stabbing a piece of meat off his plate

Taehyung : Fine! As if the weights care what I’m wearing! *sighed*

Jungkook, meanwhile, was unstoppable, He leaned closer to Y/n, whispering like they were partners in crime

Jungkook : I’m getting new sneakers? And maybe a jacket? Oh, and that black cap I saw last week---

Y/n : *giggled* and I want a dress! Pulshie! And maybe new shoes! And snacks too, can we buy snacks? Oppa! *excited*

Suga : ofcourse! Whatever you want! Kitten! *soft*

Y/n : Yeah! *excited* tomorrow’s going to be fun!

Jungkook : Yeah! I’m getting everything I want! *excited*

Suga : With whose money? Jk! I don't think you've still your pocket money of last month! *tilted his head*

Jungkook : *blinked* W-what? Hyung! You're my big brother! Ain't you going to pay for my expenses? *puppy eyes*

Suga chuckled and nodded while leaning back, quietly satisfied watching them, He knew Jungkook and Y/n always go shopping with Jin but he wanted to buy them everything what they want by his money, he smiled at them and that’s when his phone buzzed, He glanced at the caller ID and tilted his head

Suga : Dad? At this time? *confused*

The air shifted and Jungkook’s head snapped up to him

Jungkook : Is it Dad? *excited*

Before Suga could stop him, Jungkook stood up and grabbed the phone

Jungkook : Dad! Hi! How are you? How's mom? And why are you not picking up my calls? I called you twice in the morning! *annoyed*

Suga looked at him in disbelief and then leaned back, his glare could’ve burned holes through him and Jungkook faltered, realizing his mistake

Dad : Jk, hand the phone to Suga! It's urgent! *cold*

Jungkook gulped, lowering the phone like a guilty kid and handed it back to Suga without a word, sliding back into his seat while Y/n covered her giggles with her hand, Suga placed the phone against his ear, and his tone shifted into business mode

Suga : Yes dad! *cold*..... What? Namjoon? *confused*

As he listened, his gaze flickered across the table, landing briefly on Namjoon, Namjoon froze under that look, his heart skipping a beat, Why is he staring at me? Does he know that I'm planning a secret deal with Jin hyung's company? Oh god! Help me!

Suga's eyes lingered just long enough to stir doubt before he calmly finished the call

Suga : Okay dad! I’ll handle it! Namjoon will give you the details! *cold*

Namjoon forced a nervous smile, trying to look casual, though his pulse was racing and Suga looked at Jungkook

Suga : Okay! Talk to him! *cold*

He passed his mobile phone to Jung kook who looked at phone and then looked at Suga

Jungkook : What? *annoyed*

Suga : Mom and dad both want to talk to you! *cold*

Jungkook : What? *excited*

He grabbed the mobilephone and Y/n pouted at him

Jungkook : Hey mom! *excited* how are you?

Y/n : I also want to talk--

Jungkook : yaah minus! Let me talk first--

Y/n : No! Give me--

Before she could complete the sentence, Jungkook ran from there and Y/n also followed him, Suga looked at their plates and turned to them to call them back but they already left, he sighed and Namjoon rubbed his head

Namjoon : H-Hyung! *nervously* why were you looking at me like that? Did I forget something?

Suga : *shook his head* No! Dad asked about the conference! Just call him whenever you have time!

Namjoon blinked, He’d been so sure his and Hoseok’s secret plan had been caught but Suga wasn’t pressing further

Namjoon : R-Right! Conference! I’ll call him tomorrow! *nervously*

Suga just gave him one last look before picking up his chopsticks again. Namjoon exhaled quietly, relief flooding his chest that Suga doesn’t know anything yet

Suga : anyways, as Jungkook and Y/n aren't here, I want to discuss something! *cold*

Taehyung and Rm stopped eating and looked at him

Suga : *sighed* So.. I'm going to Australia after two days!

Taehyung coughed hard and Rm passed the glass of water to him, Suga leaned back, rubbing the back of his neck

Suga : *sighed* Dad wants us to be there!

Taehyung : Us? *confused* who?

Suga : Me and Jin hyung!

Rm’s throat went dry and he put the chopstick down slowly, Taehyung straightened, and gulped

Taehyung : You and Jin hyung? *shocked* Since when do you two even sit in the same room without trying to kill each other?

Suga let out a short breath, somewhere between a scoff and a sarcastic laugh

Suga : I didn’t have a choice! Dad asked for us specifically! *cold*

Rm : *gulped* D-does he know about your--

Suga : No! And keep it that away! *cold*

Taehyung : Then what could be the reason? What’s so important that Dad wants you and Jin together? *confused*

Suga shrugged, but his expression gave away that he’d been thinking about it too

Suga : Business, I guess! Something to do with the Melbourne deal! He didn’t say much, just told me to come with him! *rolled his eyes*

RM exchanged a look with Taehyung, Both of them knew this wasn’t just about business, Their father was too smart  and if he was calling Suga and Jin together, it wasn’t random

Rm : Whatever this is,  hyung! you sure you’re okay going with J-jin hyung? *gulped*

Suga’s eyes darkened for a second, then he stood up, brushing invisible dust off his pants

Suga : I don’t have to like him to work with him! Dad wants this done, so I’ll do it! *cold*

Taehyung didn’t say anything, just kept staring at Suga like he was trying to read the part of him that never spoke, The silence stretched until Suga grabbed his jacket from the back of the chair

Suga : Keep things steady here while I’m gone! And make sure Jungkook and y/n don't get any idea about this! Especially Jk! *cold*

Taehyung and Rm nodded and shared a look, both of them knowing that this trip was going to be anything but simple

At the same time,

On the other side,

Jimin : WHAT? Dad suddenly calls you and SUGA HYUNG to Australia? *gulped*

Jin : Stop it! Jimin! You're making it worst reminding me again the same thing! *angry*

Jimin: *gulped* S-sorry!

Jhope : But hyung! Question is why? Did he say anything? Business? Family meeting? Or... did he find out about our--

Jin : *scoffed* If he knew about our fight, Hobi, we wouldn’t just be invited, We’d be summoned and dragged there! There's a Big difference! *rolled his eyes*

Jhope : *gulped* Yeah! Obivously! So it’s just business? *confused*

Jin : *looked at his plate* Most likely! Melbourne project, maybe! Or some expansion talk! Dad didn’t say, just told me to be there with Suga--

Jimin : You and Suga hyung? in the same city, working together, for days? Yaah! That gives me shiver! *gulped*

Jin : We’ve done it before! Jimin! *cold*

Jimin : *crossed his arms* Yeah! Why not? And half the time you two ended up trying to kill each other! *disbelief*

Jhope stayed quiet for a moment before speaking, softer this time

Jhope : Y/n and Jungkook are coming here the day after tomorrow! What are we going to tell them? You know how Y/n gets when she thinks something is wrong! *worried*

Jin sighed, running a hand down his face

Jin : Tell her I’ll be back in a few days! Just that, Nothing else--

Jimin : You sure that’s a good idea? She’ll ask why you left so suddenly! She’ll ask if something happened with you--

Jin : Exactly why you don’t tell her anything! She’ll just get upset and Jk? you know how protective he gets! It’ll turn into a bigger problem before we even board the plane! *annoyed* And i talked with Suga! We agreed not to say anything to Y/n or Jk until we’re back! Whatever this trip is about, they don’t need to get involved! *cold*

Jimin : *rolled his eyes* Great! Now we get to lie to them for days! You know Y/n’s going to see right through us!

Jin : Then be convincing! Jimin! I’m not having her worry over nothing! When we get back, everything will go back to normal! *angry*

Jhope : *Scoffed* Normal? Does that even exist between you and Suga hyung anymore?

Jin : I hope it does! Otherwise, this trip is going to make things worse instead of better and I don't know what will happen If mom dad also involve in this! *sighed*

He stood up with his plate and turned to kitchen ,Jimin and jhope exchanged a look and sighed

Time skip to next morning,

At suga's mansion,

The house was more loud for early morning, Y/n had woken up before everyone, bouncing with excitement over their shopping trip, She wolfed down her breakfast so quickly that even the house staff chuckled, then plopped herself onto the living room couch, swinging her legs restlessly

Y/n : TAE OPPA! SUGA OPPA! JOONIE OPPA! WHERE ARE YOU? HURRY UP! WE'RE GETTING LATE! *excited*

She cupped her hands around her mouth, yelling again just to annoy them, Taehyung from the gymroom, Namjoon from the study room and Suga from the kitchen yelled at the same time

Taehyung : coming in 10 minutes! Baby! *yelled*

Rm : 15 minutes! *yelled*

Suga : yaahh I'm working alone here! Give me 15 minutes to get ready! *annoyed*

She chuckled and came to living room, where Jungkook appeared, dressed casually but already holding a folded list in his hand, his eyes were glued to it with pure concentration that he didn’t even glance at her

Y/n : *leaned forward curiously* What’s that? Is that your shopping list? *excited*

Jungkook instantly pulled the paper closer to his chest

Jungkook : None of your business, Minus! *angry*

Y/n : *pout* yaaah, I’m coming too! Show me! *annoyed*

She stretched forward, trying to snatch the list, but Jungkook simply raised it above his head,Y/N, frustrated, stood on tiptoe, jumping to see but Jungkook’s annoyed smile only grew as he lazily switched the paper to his other hand, keeping it high out of her reach

Y/n : Oppaaa, show meeee! *whined*

Jungkook :  Why? So you can copy me? Forget it, Minus! *angry*

When her jumping didn’t work, Y/N reached forward again, but Jungkook swiftly slipped the paper into his pocket, Then, with his other hand, he grabbed her easily under her arms and plopped her onto the couch like she was a little kid

Y/n : arghhh! *closed her eyes*

Jungkook rolled his eyes dramatically and scolded her like an older brother

Jungkook : Don’t interfere in my matters! Got it? *angry*

Y/N sat up, and her eyes watering slightly, lips wobbed as she glared at him and then, in her most dramatic voice, she yelled

Y/N : SUGA OPPA! *crying*

The name echoed through the house like an alarm bell and Jungkook’s eyes widened in instant panic

Jungkook : Yah, yah, stop! Don’t call him---

But it was too late, Heavy footsteps approached from the hallway and Suga appeared, still buttoning the sleeve of his shirt, his expression was already dark and He glanced between Jungkook and Y/N on the couch

Suga : What happened? *worried*

Y/n immediately scrambled off the couch and pointed an accusing finger at her brother

Y/n : *sniffed* Oppa threw me on the couch and won’t show me his list! *crying*

Jungkook : W-What?! S-she's lying hyung! She was trying to steal my list first---

Y/n : Because he’s hiding something! *angry*

Suga’s eyes narrowed, turning to Jungkook

Suga : Jk! *angry* Why are you making her cry first thing in the morning?

Jungkook : I-i didn’t! Hyung, I swear she’s faking it, Look--

But Y/N sniffled loudly for effect, dabbing at her completely dry eyes with her sleeve, She even gave a little hiccup for extra drama and Suga sighed deeply, pinching the bridge of his nose

Suga : Every morning with you two--

Jungkook : B-but hyung! It's her mistake! *turned to her* YOU--

Before he could catch her, she run and hugged Suga's waist

Y/N : You can’t touch me if Suga oppa is here! *smile*

Suga raised a brow at both of them, clearly done with their antics

Suga : Jk! Behave! Or I’ll cancel shopping! *angry*

Jungkook : why are you scolding only me? Say something to your princess! *angry*

Suga : *sighed* Kitten--

Y/n : I'll be good! Oppa! I promise! *smile*

Suga : *smiled and caressed her hairs* I trust you! Kitten! now sit quietly come on! until the others come down! If I hear another shout, both of you are staying home! *stern*

Jungkook and Y/N glanced at each other, both pouting but too scared to argue further, Namjoon finally came down the stairs with Taehyung trailing behind, rubbing his eyes, and froze at the sight of Y/N and Jungkook quietly sitting side by side on the couch, like two guilty kids caught by their dad

Taehyung : Why are they sitting like that? *confused*

Namjoon : *chuckled* Suga hyung must’ve scolded them again!

Taehyung : *chuckled* yeah! By the way, who's coming in my car? *smile*

He showed his car keys and Jungkook and y/n both jumped off the couch excitedly

Y/N & Jungkook : Me! *excited*

Taehyung : *smile* okay! Both of you come!

They both looked at each other and huffed before looking away, The fight over who would sit in whose car was an entire drama in itself

Y/n crossed her arms, and stomped her foot

Y/n : I’m not going with Jk oppa! He’ll bully me the whole way! *angry*

Jungkook : I’m not going with this Minus either! She’ll cry to Suga hyung for no reason again! *angry*

Y/n : *gasped* See? Tae oppa! He already started! *pout*

Suga, already grabbing his car keys, ignored their fight and announced his decision

Suga : Namjoon! Kitten! you both are coming with me and Jk, go with Tae! End of discussion! *cold*

So, finally agreeing with oldest's decision, they ended up splitting, Y/N, Namjoon, and Suga in one car, while Jungkook and Taehyung took the other

On Taehyung & Jungkook' side,

The drive started off quiet, Jungkook scrolled through his phone while Taehyung concentrated on the road, But soon, Taehyung glanced at him and broke the silence

Taehyung : Jk! I want to talk! *soft*

Jungkook : *turned off the mobile* Yes hyung!

Taehyung : Whatever you saw this morning about Jimin's girlfriend and all, please don't say anything to him--

Jungkook : *scoffed* What? Hyung, when I move to Jimin hyung’s place tomorrow, I’m telling him everything, He needs to know---

Taehyung : Yaah Jk! Please Don’t! Don’t say a word to Jimin about his girlfriend! *annoyed*

Jungkook : But Why not? He’s our brother! We should protect him! *angry*

Taehyung tightened his grip on the steering wheel, eyes were fixed on the road, He stayed quiet but Jungkook wasn’t the type to let things drop

Jungkook : Hyung, answer me, Why not? What’s going on? *angry*

Taehyung : *sighed* Do you even know why Jimin and I don’t talk anymore? Why we’re not close like before? *angry*

Jungkook blinked at him, confused by the sudden harshness

Taehyung : Because I already know his girlfriend is cheating on him! I tried to tell him But he...he trusts her more than he trusts me! *angry* Do you understand how that feels, Jk? It’s painful when your own brother doesn’t believe you! When he looks at you like you’re the bad guy... I don’t want the same thing to happen with you! That’s why I don’t want you involved in this! You’ll only get hurt! *sad*

Jungkook’s eyes widened, He’d never seen Taehyung this raw, He noticed the redness in Taehyung’s eyes, the way his throat bobbed as he swallowed back tears

Jungkook : H-Hyung! Are you crying? stop! Please! Don’t cry! *worried*

Taehyung sniffed, quickly brushing a hand across his face

Taehyung : Just promise me you won’t say anything to Jimin! Not yet! *sad*

Jungkook sat back in his seat, lips pressed together, his heart was heavy, After a moment, he nodded slowly

Jungkook : Okay, hyung! I won’t! *sighed*

On Y/N, Namjoon & Suga's side,

Meanwhile, in the other car, the atmosphere was completely opposite, light, cheerful, filled with Y/n's voice chattering nonstop, She sat in the back seat, leaning forward between the two front seats

Y/n : Oppa, I already made a list! I want a new dress, shoes, maybe two bags...oh, and a necklace! And also skincare and---

Namjoon : Woah! Slow down, princess! You’ll end up buying the whole mall! *chuckled*

Y/N : Why not? You said we could buy anything, right? *excited*

Suga : Ofcourse You can! Whatever you want! *smile*

Y/n : Really?! Even if I want ten dresses? *excited*

Namjoon : *shook his head* Ten? You’ll wear two and then forget the rest in your closet! *chuckled*

Y/N : Nooo, I’ll wear them! Promise! *smile*

Suga glanced at her in the rearview mirror, and smiled

Suga : Then we’ll buy you eleven! One extra! *smile*

Y/N squealed happily and leaned back against her seat, already daydreaming about bags and dresses

Y/N : Namjoon-oppa, what about you? Are you buying anything? *excited*

Namjoon : Maybe just books and a new suit for the conference Dad mentioned! That’s enough for me!

Y/N scrunched her nose

Y/n : Boring! At least buy sneakers or something fun! You’re always in suits! *pout*

Suga : *chuckled* She’s right, Namjoon! You dress like you’re going to a meeting even at breakfast!

Namjoon : Fine, Maybe sneakers! But only if Y/n doesn’t drag me into fifteen different shops! *annoyed*

Y/n : okay I won't! *giggled*

Time skip to Mall,

Both cars pulled up almost at the same time in front of the mall, Y/n practically jumped out of Suga’s car before the driver could even park properly

Y/n : Shopping timeee!! *excited*

She spun around once like a little kid before grabbing Namjoon’s arm

Namjoon : Princess! calm down! People are staring! *nervously*

Y/n : *ignored him* Oppa, hurry up! We’re wasting precious shopping minutes!

She tugged at Namjoon’s sleeve, making him stumble forward, while Suga locked the car behind them with a small amused smile

At the same time, Taehyung and Jungkook got out of their car, The air around them was heavier, Jungkook’s usual playful energy was missing, and Taehyung’s expression was cold, though his slightly red eyes hinted at the earlier conversation

Y/N, however, didn’t notice Taehyung's eyes and waved at them brightly

Y/n : Come fast, Oppa! We have a whole mall to conquer! *excited*

Jungkook forced a small smile and waved back, but his mind was still turning over Taehyung’s words, Taehyung just gave a nod, shoving his hands into his pockets

As soon as they entered, Y/n grabbed Namjoon’s hand and pulled him toward the women’s section

Y/n : I want to try this one! And this one! Oh my god, look at this color! Oppa, doesn’t it suit me? *excited*

Namjoon : It does but you should try it on first! *smile*

Y/n : Umm okay! Here, hold this! And this! And..yes, this too! *smile*

Namjoon : W-what? Princess! Stop it! I can't hold anymore--

Suga : *chuckled* I knew this would happen!But Namjoonah, You’re the one who agreed to carry her bags! *smile*

Namjoon : Not this many! Hyung! *annoyed* call your bodyguards please!

Suga chuckled and dialed his bodyguard's number, Meanwhile, Jungkook and Taehyung trailed behind, Jungkook tried to distract himself from the heaviness in his chest by teasing Y/n so he could light up Taehyung's mood

Jungkook : Yaah Minus, are you shopping for the next ten years? You’re not even tall enough to wear half of those dresses properly! *annoyed*

Y/n : *turned back* I will look amazing in all of them! You’re just jealous because you can’t pull off cute clothes! right Tae oppa?

Taehyung : *chuckled* right!

Jungkook : What right? Hyung? And Why would I want to look ‘cute’? That’s your job! *rolled his eyes* looks cute so hyungs melt and give all of those thing which you want! *scoffed*

Y/N puffed her cheeks, stomping her foot before running to Suga and hiding behind him

Y/n : Suga oppa! Tell Jk oppa to shut up! he's annoying me! *annoyed*

Suga glanced at Jungkook with an unimpressed look

Suga : Jk! *cold* behave!

Jungkook rolled his eyes but quieted down, Y/N stuck her tongue out at Jungkook before darting back into the changing room

Taehyung sat a little away from the group, scrolling through his phone but not really looking at it, His mind kept going back to Jimin, his chest tightening with guilt and frustration, Jungkook noticed and leaned closer to him

Jungkook : H-Hyung... you okay? *concerned*

Taehyung looked up, forcing a small smile

Taehyung :I’m fine! Jk! Just watching our baby sister shop the whole mall away! *chuckled*

He admire her but Jungkook could still see the heaviness in his eyes

Jungkook : Hyung! I know you're right! And Jimin hyung should trust you more--

Taehyung : Jk! *smile* You don't need to worry about that! Just forget it and focus on your shopping okay?

He ruffled his hairs but Jungkook wasn't someone who ignored the matter easily, Taehyung knew about that so he just stood up,grabbing his arms and pointed at one particular shop

Taehyung : let's go there! I wanna buy new jackets! *smile*

Jungkook : *looked there* Woah! Hyung! They all are just awesome! Please buy me one!

Taehyung : *Chuckled* Take as many as You want!

Jungkook : Really? You're great! *excited*

He almost forgot the matter and started picking the best jackets for him, While Taehyung leaned against a pillar inside with his hands shoved in his pockets, he chuckled softly when he saw Jungkook was picking all black jackets

Taehyung shook his head, but his smile faded and his eyes froze When he noticed someone, just a few feet away, he spotted Hannah, Jimin’s girlfriend, but she wasn’t alone, A tall boy was with her, his hand was lazily wrapped around her waist as if she belonged to him

Taehyung’s jaw tightened, he gritted his teeth and looked away, trying hard to ignore them, He had promised himself he wouldn’t interfere, not after what happened last time not after Jimin had chosen her side over his

But then he saw it, that boy leaned down, and Hannah tilted her chin up, letting him kiss her, not just a casual peck but a full, open mouthed kiss in the middle of the crowded mall, She didn’t even flinch, didn’t even hesitate

Taehyung’s chest burned, His fists clenched so tight his knuckles turned white, how dare she? How dare she do this to my brother? Before he realized it, his legs were already moving, His steps were sharp, dangerous, and each one echoing the rage boiling inside him, People turned their heads as they saw him storm toward the couple

And in one swift move, he grabbed the boy by the collar and yanked him backward, his fist connected with the boy’s jaw with a loud crack And the boy stumbled to the floor, clutching his mouth in shock

Hannah : T-Taehyung?! What the hell.. *shocked*

Before she could finish, Taehyung seized her wrist tightly and dragged her aside, away from the crowd, His eyes were dark, burning with a fury she had never seen before

Taehyung : Don’t! *angry* Don’t you dare play games with my brother! If you love him, then stay loyal! If you don’t, then leave him! Don’t destroy him like this! *angry*

Hannah yanked her hand from his grip, and her lips curled into a smirk instead of guilt

Hannah : Oh really? Otherwise, what? Hm? You’ll cry to Jimin again? You’ll get beaten up like last time when you tried to warn him about me? *laughed*

Her words hit like venom, Taehyung’s chest tightened at the memory, The first time he caught her with someone else, he had confronted her just like now but when Jimin found out, he didn’t believe Taehyung, He had defended her and the two brothers had ended up fighting, leaving Taehyung bruised not only on his face but in his heart

For a split second, his eyes flickered with pain and then the pain turned to ice, Taehyung’s hand shot up, wrapping firmly around Hannah’s throat, She gasped, her smirk faltered as his grip tightened just enough to make her panic

Taehyung : *angry* I’m done watching you toy with him! You think I’m scared of another fight with my brother? *smirk* You’re wrong! I don’t care if he hates me! I don’t care if we tear apart as brothers! If you dare hurt him again, I’ll make your life a living hell! *angry*

His words laced with venom, Hannah’s eyes widened, and she gulped hard, her cockiness cracked as she realized he wasn’t bluffing this time, He released her with a shove, making her stumble back a step

Taehyung : Leave Jimin before it’s too late! You’ve been warned! *angry* and mind my words, I'm too dangerous for enmity! *cold*

With that, he turned and walked away without looking back, he came inside the store again and saw Jungkook was dialing his number to pay the bill

Jungkook : Hyung, where were you? I was about to call you for payment! 

Taehyung : Washroom! *cold*

He took out his card to pay the bill and Jungkook just stared at him before leaving the store behind
