Rules Applied [On Hold]

Chapter 3

 I don't think I've recalled ever seeing Jimin around our school at all. That's odd considering the fact that he has the face that would make a lasting impression on everyone. The only plausible reason that comes to mind as to why we haven't met is that he might be an upperclassman in our school, that would explain why we haven't exactly ran into one another up until this moment. But then again it might have something to do with the fact that I've been so occupied dealing with Taehyung, you try dealing with his childish games where he taunts you all day long. Doesn't he ever get bored playing with the same "toy" for what seems like forever? Take away the fact that we have the same class together and that I work for his family and he'd still find a way to barge into my life to make it all the more miserable. I could never catch a break whenever he was around so maybe that's why I couldn't notice any of my surroundings, it breaks my heart to say it but even Jimin couldn't catch my attention.

Well, none of that really matters anymore since I've now been properly introduced to my future hus- cough, cough - Jimin. There's not point in dwelling on the subject more than it needs to be. Never thought I'd ever see the day where Taehyung actually does something that I appreciate but I guess now that's changed. At least there's one redeeming quality in him and it's that he's a great matchmak- cough, cough - great at introducing me to potential new friends, yes, that's what I meant to say. Someone coughs out loud and it draws my attention, it seems like it draws everyone else's attention as well, "race you guys best two out of three?" His voice sounds as if he's cocky but his face doesn't reflect how someone that's cocky is. His smile literally illuminates the room to the point where my eyes might start crying, he's such a ray of sunshine. I put my hands on my head and think hard about what his name is... Hoseok, that's his name. "Your on, Hoseok!" Illuminati confirmed (sorry, I had an urge to add his randomly). This one has dimples when he smiles, he could literally use those as a weapon to kill me, I feel like they should be illegal. Correct me if I'm wrong but this one's Namjoon, right?

I sigh blissfully as I watch all seven of them playing, please don't sue me I'm not a pervert nor a stalker and I sure as hell ain't a creep - or am I? I can't help it when there's seven good-looking of this guys all right in front of me, you would do the same and stare at them right? Appreciate their beauty in all it's glory. Yes, that's right if you discard the trash personality Taehyung is a sight to see and if you want your question answered I was looking at him too. The sound of a bell resonates throughout the entire room and I search for the where the source of the noise came from. I lock eyes Taehyung from across the room and he holds a bell to his lip and gives it a peck - I seriously want to question the sanity of this guy more than anything - He walks to me with a mocking grin on his face, not again with this. I wish more than anything for him to stop walking to me with that intense predator stare in his eyes but life is unfair. "Like it?" He shakes the bell in front of my face and I open my mouth to answer his question. "N-" Wow, he didn't even give me a chance to answer his question, "whether you like it or not doesn't really concern me at all." He winks and continues, "but what you should know is the rule and that is to always come to my aid when I ring this bell, got it?" Somehow he sounded a little intimidating when he was saying that, I gulped and nodded my head in agreement.

"Why do you have a bell and how?" Jin pokes his head into view, his voice sounding awfully cheerful, if I'd known any better it looked as if he wanted to get one for himself (Imagining Jin having the world at command by a bell, lol). That's a question that I'd also like to ask myself. I mean where did he even find the time to buy that bell without me finding out about it. I demand to know about it right this instance - that's me trying to mimic Taehyung -, fat chance he would answer me, he'd probably shrug my question off and fire back with a question of his own. I can just imagine him saying, 'why would I tell you something like that?' As if he had read my mind he answers Jin an answer practically the exact same as what I predicted. "Why do you want to know and as if I'd tell you something like that." Jin pouts, the poor soul all he wanted was his own bell. "Well, okay... I'm going to go back to the others." Jin walks off back to the others. "What I wanted to tell you is to get me some food and it should be freshly cooked, okay?" I roll my eyes and then nod my head, "yeah, sure." I head out the room faster than he can bark a snarky remark at me.

I've been walking down the same hallway for the pass ten minutes or so. I left to go to the kitchen but never made it to the kitchen, how sad is this. This place is like a gigantic maze just waiting to eat me alive. If this was my house I would've been at my kitchen faster than ten seconds. I should've asked Taehyung to tag along with me, I mean it hasn't been that long since I've started working for him. Why did I expect that I would figure this out all on my own? I don't know what I was thinking... The sounds of someone snickering make my ears perk up, "who's there?" It's obvious that it's Taehyung, he probably was wondering where I was and why his food wasn't in his mouth. "You lost, little pup?" I'm surprised to hear that it's not Taehyung's voice but someone else's voice. I turn to face the direction of where the voice came from, "oh, it's you Jimin." He waves a hand, "that's my name don't wear it out."

"Was it that obvious that I was lost?" He snickers again, "well, you tell me? Walking around in circles for the pass ten minutes isn't lost?" I knew I was walking in circles. "It was actually quite entertaining to watch." Why does this line sound all too familiar to me? He stretches his arms in the air and lets out a yawn, "well, I'm heading for the washroom. I'll see you later." I thought he was going to help me. Also, are all of Taehyung's friends just as conceited as he is?!? "Okay..." I feel myself pouting, so much for my knight in shining armor. "I'll decide if I want to help you out."

He starts to walk away and I chase after him. "Wait, let's go together."
