Stigma Love's Algorithm [ A BTS x Reader Poly ]

Chapter 101: From Just Us to All of Us

"I don't know, babe. Just... smile and hope they like us?"

I chuckled under my breath.

"Easy for you. You're adorable. I'm one eyebrow twitch away from a breakdown."

Then came Yoongi hyung's mom.

She entered like she owned the universe-wrapped in a shawl that looked handwoven by time itself, eyes glittering with history.

She made a beeline straight for Tae.

"My sweet boy," she cooed, arms open.

Tae melted into her. His smile-the real one that softened the coldest days-lit the whole foyer.

"And this," she turned to Yoongi hyung, her voice sharper now, "is my serious son. Still no smile."

Yoongi hyung groaned. "Mom..."

"You're lucky I love you, Min Yoongi," she declared, pinching his cheek.

Then she turned to me and Kook, and that sharpness melted instantly.

"You must be Jungkook and Hoseok."

I nodded. "Yes, ma'am-"

"Oh no. None of that." She waved a hand dismissively. "You boys call me Mom like the rest. You're mine now, too."

And then she hugged us-tight, like she meant it. Like she'd been waiting.

The whirlwind that followed was Nari, Yoongi hyung's sister.

She swept in like the party had been waiting for her. Wrapped both Joonie and Yoongi hyung in a hug that barely contained her joy.

"I finally meet the famous Kookie and Hobi!" she beamed.

"Y/N noona's told me everything. And I do mean everything."

Kook flushed deep red, ears and all.

"I follow you on Insta," she grinned at me.

"My friends are gonna scream that I met THE J-Hope."

I laughed, caught between flattery and pure disbelief as she went on about my dance videos.

And then two people glided in behind her-Hanna and Jeff. Nari's soulmates.
Tethered like planets to her sun.

Hanna's voice was silk. "You both are as pretty as Tae oppa said."

"Almost unfair," Jeff added, leaning in.

"We'll be judging your vibes all night. No pressure."

They cracked up together. It felt easy.
Like we'd known each other in another life.

As they walk towards the buffet table, I heard Jeff mutter, "Is this a house or a luxury mansion?"

Kookie snorted. "So far so good, huh?"

I nodded. "We're still alive. That's a win."
