Snowed in

BTS 

(A/N: I wrote this back in 2020 so it's not going to be good by any means. It will be rough but the growth I've done since then is the most important part!)

It was winter and I was sitting in my adoptive grandmas bookstore/coffee shop. It was snowing really bad outside. Grandma had gone home, and I was sitting in a chair by a window with the fire going in the front of the store. I was engulfed in a book with a blanket over my lap sipping on hot chocolate. I had a playlist over the store speakers. Soft soothing music turned on low. I looked up from my book to see the snow getting worst. 'I guess ill sleep here tonight' I thought to myself. I read a couple more chapters when I heard the knocking on the door. I checked my watch it said 11 p.m. I looked outside and saw seven boys standing outside. I opened the door to let them in.

"Oh lord you must be freezing come in. What happened? Why are you outside in a blizzard?" They all looked around. One of them came up to me.

"Our car broke down and this was the only place we saw with life inside. We are sorry to intrude" I smiled and ushered them to sit down by the fire and take their coats off.

"Would you like some coffee or hot chocolate?" I pointed to the kitchen of the shop. They all told me what they wanted and one of them offered to help me.

"I'm (Y/N) by the way" I introduced myself.

"Jin, thank you so much for letting us in"

"You are very welcome but I'm sorry to tell you, you might be stuck here all night by the way snow is coming down." I looked outside the window.

"That's fine we need a break anyways. Hey, this playlist what is it?" He asked with a smug smile.

"Um I don't know it was on Youtube and I liked it, so I play it when I am alone in the store reading" I keep making the drinks adding little touches of my creativeness.

"Do you know who sings these songs?" Jin asked

"Um... no sorry" He smiled and helped me take the drinks to the boys.

"hey boys please introduce yourselves to this kind lady." I smiled at him calling me kind.

"You can just call me (Y/N). I am only 21 don't want to sound old yet." I blush as I had out the drinks.

"I am Namjoon and this is Hoseok beside me." The tall one with dimples says taking his drink.

"I am Jimin and this is Taehyung"

"I am Yoongi"

"And I am Jungkook" The one sitting next to my chair looked a little shy introducing himself. Not going to lie he was a looker.

"Nice to meet you all" I say sitting in my chair bringing my legs to my chest and putting the blanket over me again.

"Boys she is listening to a playlist but doesn't know who they are" Jin looked at the boys and they all looked at me in amazement.

"Have you heard of BTS?" Yoongi asked curiously.

"Um yeah they are a big K-pop group dominating the world right now. I've listened to a couple of their songs, but I have never looked them up or seen their faces" I admit a little scared and wondering where this is going.

"Look them up" Namjoon says taking a sip of coffee and getting up to look at the book cases. I looked them up and my eyes widened.

"You guys are BTS" I whisper as they all laugh. We strike up conversation as I kept a look out for the snow. I get a big alert on my phone around midnight.

"Well I guess we are stuck together for a couple day" I look at them sympathetically. They all mumble over each other. Until one of them spoke.

"I like it here I don't mind staying a few days." I give a little smile.

"It looks like the storm has grown and it will be snowing for a couple days" I look down at my phone. "Let me get you guys pillows and blankets. I am sorry that I don't have any place more comfortable."

"Oh, it's okay we can sleep anywhere." Yoongi pats my back.

"I'll help you get the stuff" Jin walks behind me as I go to the back of the store and get pillows and blankets.

"Why do you have all this stuff here?" I hand Jin a couple blankets.

"Um... I stay here a lot reading and my grandma keeps leaving everything here because she knows I will stay the night cuddled up with a book." I turn around and climb up a stepstool to get the pillows.

"You know the shy boy sitting next to you?" He looked out the door and whispered for no one to hear.

"Yeah, what about him?" I asked looking to see if I had sweats and hoodies that I always leave behind when I change here.

"He thinks you are very pretty and is starting to have a crush on you." I smile to myself as the words left his mouth. I carry a box full of sweats and hoodies that I forgot to take to the donation center last week and stuffed it up there before grandma yelled at me. We walk out of the back and I told them to find what could fit them and change in the back if they wanted. As they rummaged through the box, I looked at the dying fire place.

"I will be back we need more fire wood." I put my boots on with my jacket, hat, and gloves.

"I'll go with you" Jungkook offered as we step outside into the cold. The fire wood was right outside the door. I picked up a couple pieces of wood and so did he then we went inside dusting snow off of us. We walked back to the boys and I put the wood in the fire making the fire bigger.

At around 2 am the boys had all found clothes to wear and were all cuddled up scattered on the floor sleeping. I see Taehyung shivering, so I get up and put another blanket over him. I look over and Jungkook's head is falling off the couch he was sprawled out across. I giggle and walk over there securing his head. I sit in my tiny seat and fall asleep curled up like I had done many nights before.

I wake up a couple hours later and saw it still snowing really heavy outside. I sigh and look around to see some of the boys missing and the fire tended to. I look at my watch and see that it is 10 am. I fix my hair as I see all the boys that were awake brushing their teeth in the bathroom. They all finished, and I brush mine. I look over to the back room and someone had braved the blizzard and gotten the luggage out of the broke down car. I walk over to the kitchen and see Jin cooking. Boy was I glad this was a coffee shop and book store that sold food.

"Do you need help" I look at Jin mixing veggies with the eggs and look over at Namjoon and Yoongi sipping coffee.

"No, it's okay" He smiles at me.

"How did you guys sleep" I look at the others still soundly asleep.

"It was the best sleep and the longest sleep in a very long time." Namjoon smiles into the cup of coffee.

"Well that's good" I pick up my phone from where it was charging and saw a text from Grandma.

Everything is shut down and there is no visibility for 5 feet in front of you so please take care of yourself. I had stocked meats and other groceries in the deep freeze and in the cupboards in the back for when you stayed there. Everything should still be good. Hope to see you soon.

I text grandma thanks and put my phone on the counter in front of me. 'Grandma rules' I think to myself.

"Breakfast is done can you wake the other boys up" Jin says looking at me and Namjoon.

"I take Jimin and Taehyung you take Jungkook" He winks at me

"What if he gets mad?" I ask scared

"Trust me when he sees who you are, he won't fight" I turn to Jungkook and shake him lightly. I caught myself looking at his beautiful features that were stunning. I shake the thoughts out of my head and shake him again a little harder. He starts groaning and stirring. He opens his eyes and they looked angry until he made eye contact with me. He sat up quickly and looked around.

"Good morning" I chuckled and walked over to the counter. He looked around and rubbed his eyes. He gets up and takes the plate Jin offered him. I was sitting on the ground looking outside at the snow eating my food. My back was turned towards them but in the reflection of the window I could see the boys nudging Jungkook to sit by me. He shyly makes his way to where I was sitting and sits next to me. We eat in silence for a while.

"The snow is pretty isn't it. I mean we are stuck here but..." I look down not finishing my thought. A stray piece of hair falls in my face. He looks at me with his doe eyes and puts the stray hair behind my ear. I look up at him and smile as he smiles back at me.

"You know I think the snow is pretty too, and I think that all this happened for a reason." I look at him curious but intrigued.

"What do you think the reason is?" I cock my head to the side a little like a little puppy. He looks at me then back at the window.

"I feel like there was a reason for us to break down and you be the only person willing to help us. I mean you were the only store with the lights still on." He looks at me again then down at his plate. "I just feel like all this happened for a reason"

I look at him and I forgot there were six others in the room until one of them sneezed. I shake my head and take a deep breath before getting up and heading to the kitchen. The boys all look at me smiling. I get to the kitchen and I take all the boys plates and start doing dishes. Jimin and Taehyung walk over to me and lean on the counter.

"You know he doesn't really talk to anyone but us. It was wild that he even said a word to you." I look at Jimin

"May I ask why?" I kept my eyes on the dishes.

"He's never really been around girls and he has lived with us for all of his teenage life. We are not that good with girls ourselves, but we are not as bad as him." Taehyung looks over at Jungkook playing around with Jin and Namjoon then back at me.

"I don't think he's that bad. We had a semi conversation and he seemed comfortable around me" I turn off the water and dry my hands.

"For some odd reason we all feel comfortable around you. We deal with screaming fans and frustrated workers... You treat us like normal people. Heck you didn't even know who we were" I chuckle as I walked away shaking my head at them. I walk to the storage room which was by the kitchen and look around. I remember as a kid I would play board games here every time I came to visit during the summer or on weekends. I take a couple board games out of an old plastic box and some card games. As I was walking out someone scared me causing me to go backwards, I close my eyes waiting to hit the floor as the box slipped out of my hands, but I didn't feel anything.

"Oh my gosh I am so sorry are you okay?" I look up at Jungkook holding me up. We stay staring at each other until Hoseok cleared his throat reminding us we are not alone. I straighten up and pick up the box.

"I have games here" I walk over turning ten shades of red. I set the box down and go back to my seat putting the blanket over me as I watch the boys pick what they want to play. I get an alert on my phone and I sigh rolling my eyes. They all look at me concerned. I decided not to tell them anything until I was sure they wouldn't freak out.

"Did any of you contact the people that might be worried about you." I look at my phone one more time waiting for an answer to tell them the news.

"We texted everyone that needs to know of our location" Hoseok smiles at me while bouncing a tiny rubber ball on the floor and catching it. I take a deep breath hoping we would live through the news.

"I got an alert that this is a freak storm and they are saying we will be here for weeks and probably snowed in until people can help us out for a while." I had a nervous habit of pushing my hair back and biting my lips and I think they caught onto it. "Christmas is three weeks away and..." I look down at my hands "I'm sorry" I get up and walk to the bookshelves. I get to the very back corner and sit down back against the wall knees to my chest head in my knees. I felt a person next to me, but I didn't look up. I felt his arms go around my tiny body curled up and hug it. I already knew who it was not even looking up.

"Its going to be okay" He says placing his head on my head. I take a deep breath then pick my head up and place it in his chest.

"I'm not worried about this whole situation. I am introvert. I can stay in this store for years and not go outside. I'm just worried about my grandma. I am all she has left, and she is all I have left. I look at the ring on my hand. She isn't even my real grandma, but all we have is each other." I never realized how much bigger than me Jungkook is until we were sitting right here. He just sat there trying to think of something to say.

"What do you mean?" He said barely above a whisper.

"Um... my parents are in a risky business and one time someone tried to hurt me because of what they do. My dad had been on a work trip here and made friends with my grandma. It was far enough from the danger and my dad knew I was going to be taken care of and loved. In the middle of the night when I was 13 my dad left me at grandmas house. At that time Grandpa was still around. They loved me like their own child. They did everything they could for me. They were so over protective though it was crazy. Around when I was 16, grandpa got really sick and passed away. Ever since then its just been me and grandma."

"What about your parents"

"I never saw them again after that night. I was told they went into hiding. I get money and birthday gift and every holiday they send me something, but they are just a distant memory that comes to haunt me every time around this time of year." He studies my features and we sit there and talk for an hour before Jimin comes back.

"Is everything okay?" He looks at how we are sitting and smirks. Jungkook releases me and stands up.

"Yeah everything is okay" He extends his hand out to me to help me up. His gaze was soft, and he had this nice little smile on his face. I take his hand as he pulls me up. When we get to the sitting room, I was amazed by what I saw.

"What is all this?" I ask surprised by what the boxes had in them.

"Well Christmas is 3 weeks away. We found a Christmas tree and decorations. We thought this would make it less depressing." I smile as Taehyung takes tinsel out of the box. I look over and Namjoon has a paper and pencil looking in the deep freeze and pantry.

"No one has to worry we have enough food to last us 6 months so we will not starve" We all look at him and laugh. He sighs and comes over to us.

"You know what I just realized?" We all look at Yoongi as if he had an epiphany. "This is the first time in like five years that we get to celebrate a real Christmas" I look around and they all talk amongst themselves smiling and taking decorations out of the boxes.

"Well we need to do this right then" I stand up and turn on the TV to Hallmark Christmas movies and we start decorating and singing carols. A couple hours later we are all sitting down after we rearranged the couches and chairs and everything watching Hallmark movies. Jin, Hoseok, and Namjoon were all sitting on the big couch. Yoongi was sitting in the single chair. Jimin and Taehyung were on the loveseat cuddling and Jungkook was on the floor as I sat in my chair. The boys were so focused on the movie it made me giggle a little. I look at Jungkook trying to get comfortable on the floor. I tap his shoulder and he turn to me.

"Come sit here I can sit on the floor for a little" He nods his head, but he had way different plans. I got up and he sat down. I was getting ready to sit down when he pulled me on his lap. I looked at him, but he just took the blanket and put it over the both of us and kept watching the movie. Around 10 pm we all decided to turn on the tree that we kept a safe distance from the fireplace and turn off the TV and settle down for the night. I decided to sleep on the floor in a tiny space. I looked around and smiled before closing my eyes.

It was 1 week until Christmas. We had forgotten about the outside world except for the text we get everyday asking how we are doing. I was in the kitchen making peppermint brownies, three types of cookies, and chocolate cover popcorn mix. They boys were helping me, and we were listening to music having so much fun.

"How about we make gingerbread houses on Christmas eve?" Hoseok asked me eating an M&M.

"Yeah we can do that" I dust off my hands that were covered in powdered sugar. Jungkook was napping on the couch because he had a horrible time sleeping last night. Over the past few days Jungkook and I had gotten really close. I was happy but in the back of my mind I knew this would end. I just wanted to enjoy the present and not bring it up until I had to. I was to busy in my thoughts when I felt hands wrap around my waist from behind. I jump getting startled but then calm down when I realize who it is.

"Hi! Sorry I made you jump" he whispers in my ear giving my cheek a kiss.

"Its okay" I look over my shoulder and smile. We were done baking and cleaning up. I sat on Jungkook's lap as we watched the Grinch. I was looking around taking in every second pf happiness I could. Taking mental pictures to remember and cherish forever. I let one tear slip out which caught me off guard because I never cry.

"Are you okay" Jungkook looks at me concerned. I smile and nod then cuddle myself into his body. I guess I had fallen asleep because when I woke up it was 9 am. I look at what my head was resting on and I realized I had fallen asleep on Jungkook. I get up all of the boys still asleep and go wash my face and brush my teeth and hair. We had found and old metal tub behind a lot of book boxes. We set it up in the back of the store and we filled it with water and took baths in that. I was really awkward at first, but we gave each other privacy and as long as we were clean, we didn't care. I start breakfast and look at the calendar. It had been three weeks since we were snowed in. I wasn't watching what I was doing and cut my finger. I winced at the pain and put it under cold water to wash the cut. I was looking for a band-aid when I saw Jungkook with the first aid kit.

"I thought you were sleeping" I whisper load enough for him to hear me.

"I didn't feel your body, so I woke up a couple minutes after you." He takes a band-aid and wraps my finger in it then kisses it making me giggle. "there its all better now" He smiles his bunny smile at me. He ends up helping me with breakfast. After we all eat and clean up, I went to the corner Jungkook and I had talked that one day. I decided to facetime Grandma. She didn't answer but I didn't worry much, she would call me or have someone call me if something was wrong. I sit there a while longer looking at the pictures of me and the boys that were in my phone. I take a deep breath and stand up going back to the boys. We decided that we had been around each other long enough to spill secrets. So, we came up with a game as we all sat around, and the TV was going. Someone said a secret they have been keeping and if you have a similar secret you go if you don't and we are all stuck we play rock paper scissors to see who goes next.

"Okay believe it or not I have not kissed a girl or guy yep and I am 24 years old" Taehyung looks down ashamed, but I speak up.

"I am 21 and I still have not had my first kiss or date or significant other" I avoid eyes contact with everyone and Jungkook spoke up.

"I am 23 years old and I have also not had my first kiss, date, or significant other" I feel him look at me, but I don't look at him. We all had spilled a lot of secrets before we got tired. I was playing a card game with Yoongi and Hoseok while Jimin and Taehyung napped together, Namjoon was reading a book, and Jin and Jungkook were talking. I tried to ease drop on their conversation but my ADD wouldn't let me.

"You seem like your waiting for a pin to drop" Yoongi looks over his cards at me.

"What do you mean?" I start biting my lips.

"You are constantly nervous. I see you slapping your lips a lot to stop your nervous habit before you make yourself bleed." He puts a card down.

"What are you nervous about?" Hoseok puts down a card and looks at me. I sigh and make then come in closer to the circle we were in.

"I am waiting for reality to hit. All this is nice, and we are all having fun now... but what happens when reality hits. I am a no one. You are BTS. I will probably never see you guys in person again." My eyes flicker over to Jungkook and back to the circle. "I am just waiting for this trance to end, me end up broken hearted for falling hopelessly in love with Jungkook, and my life go back to normal. Except it won't be normal... I will know you guy and have all the memories and pictures, but I will still be a nobody" They both give each other a sad look before looking back at me.

"How do you know we will not keep in contact?" Yoongi puts a card down and looks up at me.

"How do you know Jungkook won't want to keep you in his life?" Hoseok picks up a card and curses. I look over at Jungkook laughing and smiling with Jin.

"I don't know but that all my life has ever brought me" I put down my last card winning the game and walking to the kitchen to get water. I had my back facing the boys, but I heard a lot of moving so I am pretty sure Yoongi and Hoseok are telling them about the conversation we just had. I put my cup down and looking into the counter shaking all the negative thoughts out of my head. I turn around and walk straight into Jungkook's chest. He had a hurt look in his eyes. He intertwined our fingers and walked me to the corner I always sit at to over think or take a breather. We get there and Jungkook sits down. I look at him and he pats the floor next to him. I sit down next to him and we sit in silence for a while.

"I hope you know you are not a nobody to me" He looks over at me, but I was looking at the floor. "You are very special, and I don't want it to end here."

"This is not a Hallmark Movie. There are no such thing as happy endings." I bit the inside of my cheek instead of my lips to not show how nervous I am.

"Yeah you are right this is real life and in real life you have to write your own story. I am writing mine right now and sorry to tell you I wrote you in my story with permanent marker." I giggle at the last part.

"Jungko-" Before I could even start to say what I was going to say he connects his lips with mine. I felt a tingling all through my body. We moved our lips in sync him being soft and gentle. I felt his emotions in that kiss, and I poured mine into it as well. We pull away and he looks at me. All I could think was 'well for us not knowing how to kiss I think that went pretty well' but I was speechless and couldn't say anything.

"So, what do you say?" He asked caressing my face with his thumb. He hadn't asked me anything with words, but I knew exactly what he meant. I nod my head and he kisses my forehead. He pulls me in his lap to hug me better.

It was Christmas eve, and everyone was calling their family. Grandma and I had talked for a while making me feel better about how she was. I told her about the boys and Jungkook and celebrating Christmas here and how it was been fun, but I missed her. She told me that she thought it was time for me to leave home and find my own way that she was going to go live in a home and pay someone to look after the store. I protested but we had a deep conversation about it, and we agreed that I would start my life. I got off the phone with her and Jungkook walks towards me with his phone.

"Look I told you she was pretty" I blush and smile awkwardly at the phone and wave.

"Hi Merry Christmas eve" I say shyly.

"Oh, she is so adorable" I hear what sounds like his brother on the other side of his phone. "Mom is going to be so excited to finally have a girl to dress up and talk to. Mom, Mom come here" He calls his mom over and hands her the phone.

"Hi, who is this pretty girl" I smile and introduce myself.

"Mom this is the girl I texted you about" He smiles proudly at the camera. After everyone was done talking to their families, we start making gingerbread for the gingerbread houses. I had stuck them in the oven and was waiting for them to finish. I went to safari on my phone and started looking up jobs and apartments and other stuff in various cities worldwide. I was so focused I didn't realize Jungkook was looking over my shoulder watching my every move.

"Hey what are you looking at?" He asked as if he had not seen what I was looking at.

"well I talked to grandma and she wants me to go out and explore and start my life, so I am looking for some opportunities and places and jobs in my field" I look at him contemplating what I said. I can almost see gears turning in his brain.

"How about you spend sometimes with us? I mean think about it you can travel with us for a little bit and if you get tired of that well you would have traveled and seen some places and you can decide what to do from there." I look at him ans smile.

"what are the odds that I would leave your side after everything?" I ask him seriously. He smiles and leaned over the counter to give me s peck on the lips.

"Slim to none" He gives me a cocky smirk. I take the gingerbread out of the over and put it in the fridge to cool. I set up the table with icing and candies for the gingerbread houses.

"Okay we have to pair up because I only made enough pieces for 4 houses." I place the pieces in the middle of the table and sit down.

"Jungkook is going to want to be with his girlfriend" Jimin and Taehyung tease us.

"has anyone told you, you two can be twins?" I raised and eyebrow and smirked as everyone laughed at their reactions. A few hours later I set up my phone and we all take a picture with our houses.

"You know this is what Christmas is really about. The people you love doing fun things. Its not about the presents or the events. Its about this right here." Namjoon looks at all of us and we all get up for a group hug. They look at me pushing me to the middle of the group hug.

"Maybe Jungkook was right. Maybe fate really did put us here for a reason." Hoseok says.

"Or maybe it's just a Christmas wish come true" Jin says looking at the boys. We all smile at each other and sit back down eating the candies on the table.

'If this was an actual Christmas wish or if it was fate thank you for bringing these boys into my life.' I smile at my thoughts and sit back looking at the boy.
