Only a Month (part 2)

-Author POV-

The men emerge from the building, uncertainty seemingly tainting the air around them. 

"What do we do now...?"

"Why the hell did we agree to that? I still think it's extreme." 

"Do you really think Y/N will be safe with them? It's obvious they don't care about her."

"I wouldn't say that they don't care. As far as they know, she's our only weakness. We're not only endangering her life but ours too." 

Namjoon sighs in frustration. After all, the others did have some relevant points. If they lost her, all the searching they had done for years would be utterly pointless. Man, I'm such an idiot...so much for being the fearless leader of Bangtan.

"Well...now is really not the time to be moping about it. She's gone, and she's not coming back until next month. The most we can do is hope. Which is why you have me! You know, J-hope! I'll have enough hope for all of us, okay?"

Hoseok smiles brightly, despite the thoughts going through his mind. The tension in the fades and the men collectively chuckle lightly at his positive mindset. Yoongi lets out a rough exhale before plopping down on the ground defeatedly.

"I miss her already," He murmurs, not even minding the sticky thickness of blood clinging to his skin and clothes. He looks up at the star-speckled sky and his eyes lock on the moon shining down on the group.

"Aw...Yoongi's got a crush~!" Jimin sings, and simply giggles when Yoongi casts him a death glare.

"Guys, I think Tae needs clothes now," Jungkook intervenes, diverting away from the topic.

Namjoon glances at the younger with a confused expression; he wasn't used to him rushing away from a topic that involved you. 

"What's wrong, Jungkook-ah? Don't tell me you still like her, too," Jimin says playfully, a dark undertone hidden by his fooling giddy behavior. Yes, this man loves you as well. He would gladly become your boyfriend if you allowed it. Although...he knew of the other's feelings.

He had noticed how their moods changed completely around you. Yoongi's normally aloof and uninterested attitude became flustered and childish. Hoseok goes from bright baby to seductive freak. Taehyung's ears perk higher around you, and for some reason, Jimin doesn't like that. Sure, he wants everyone to be happy, but he loves you too much to just simply let you go. 

"No, hyung. Can we not talk about this? Please?" Jungkook snaps and his fists clench in annoyance.

"So you still like her, huh?" 

"So what if I like her? You know we all do!" 

An awkward silence. Jungkook quickly brings his hand up to his mouth, knowing he said too much. After all, they had this conversation before. It was for you to decide who you would love back. 

"I love all of you, and I'd rather die than choose," Namjoon whispers, reminding everyone of your words.

"That's just a load of bullshit. She just said that to comfort us when we were younger. You know it's not true." 

This time, Hoseok speaks up, his golden hair glimmering in the bright moonlight. He allows hints of anger to slip into his voice, dropping his cheerful profile.

"Hyungs, can we at least talk about this when we aren't covered in blood?" Jungkook struggles to pull them away from the topic again, his nerves getting the best of him. The men ignore him and he glances down at Taehyung in tiger form. 

"Let's just get you some clothes, hyung." He huffs, leading the tiger towards their car.

"What happened? Why are you guys so mad?" Yoongi asks, snapping out of his trance. 

"The same fucking conversation, hyung. Why is it you always zone out when something important is happening?" Jimin glares at the older man, who was still sitting on the ground. Yoongi blinks at the passive-aggressive remarks of the man, knowing he would be pouting and whimpering 'sorry' as soon as the situation cooled down.

None of the seven liked this conversation and simply preferred to avoid it. It was uncomfortable to talk with each other afterward, considering they were arguing over the only girl that mattered to them. They had other girls who would willingly do anything just to get in their beds. But you were different.

You weren't interested in their sex. You saw them as...well, them. 

Jimin ran his hand through his hair. "Sorry, hyung. I think I'm just tired. We all are." The men hum in agreement, deciding this conversation should come to a close. Yoongi pulls himself up, dusting off some sediment from his pants, when-

"Wait."

Namjoon says, and the men all snap their attention towards him.

"There's someone else here...I can hear their thoughts."

All of the men freeze. 

"What...?"

I'm so sorry...seems like the boys are going to put up a bit of a fight for you ;)

Who else do you think is there? Man, this chapter was shorter than usual-
