Encoded in our DNA (A BTS Reverse Harem x OC story)

Chapter 53

"When there are multiple ways of saying things it is harder for me to understand. But, I know trying to learn English must have been difficult for you for the opposite reason. One word meaning multiple things must have been confusing."

He smiles softly. "Still is." He pauses for a second and just stares at me. "Eolmayeyo?"

"How much is it?"

"Bangapsumnida."

"Oh it's said when greeting someone for the first time." I think for a second. "Nice to meet you?"

He nods.

"Bbo bbo, juseyo."

I sit up and arch my eyebrow in confusion. "Juseyo is please or please give me. But, we didn't go over bbo bbo."

"Bbo bbo is this." Suddenly his lips are on mine and just like every other time with Tae his kisses are not even remotely shy. They are eager and unrestrained. I find myself flush against the mattress like many other times we have kissed before this. Unlike other kisses shared between us this one doesn't last long. He leans his forehead against mine. "Nuhbahkeh uhpsuh. Saranghae nae cheonsa."

Before I can ask what any of that meant, because he most definitely didn't teach me those words, his lips are on mine again. His eagerness is always intoxicating and able to light the wick of flame within myself, but there is a niggling at the back of my mind that knows we can't or shouldn't get carried away. I would rather get that doctor's appointment out of the way, and we have irresponsibly not been discussing being safe to begin with. I'm nervous about bringing up said discussion, but I know it needs to happen.

My stomach makes a noise of protest, so I reluctantly pull away. My phone has been beside me the whole time upside down on the bedspread so I pick it up and look at the display. When I see the time I frown. Looks like I won't be making any of the meals today. "Should we order something delivered for supper?" I ask.

Tae nods, but I decipher it as more one out of consideration than agreement. My assumption is proved correct with his next sentence. "Let's see if Yoongi-hyung or Jin-hyung have made any plans first. If they haven't then we will do that."

When we first arrive downstairs the area is completely empty. I don't know where they could be in this large house, and while I feel silly doing it, I pull out my new cellphone and open up our group chat.

Me: Where is everyone? My stomach is grumbling. Has anyone made any supper plans? I know I haven't.

No one immediately answers me which of course has me frowning. Then I hear several sets of footsteps coming from both upstairs and downstairs. "We should order something." Jk enthuses as he comes around the corner. He is drenched in sweat, so I know he must have been in the gym when I texted them.

"What should we order?" Joon asks.

"Korean fried chicken. There is a BB.Q not far away." Yoongi suggests. Since we don't have a physical copy of the menu tucked away somewhere he points out where I can find the menu online. Not that I actually need the help in that regard. But when he was showing me he was very hands on by wrapping his hands around me and using his own hands to pull up the website on my phone. I quickly clicked translate at the top of the page, hoping the hangul was all typed by hand and not part of an image.

It takes me several minutes to peruse the menu, and even then I am still baffled. "Nearly everything on this menu sounds delicious. How am I supposed to choose?"

"Which ones are you considering?" Jin asks me. "Maybe we can help narrow it down for you."

"And if not perhaps one of us is already planning on ordering one of the items you are considering. If that's the case then we can let you try it." Hobi suggests.
