I was sitting in front of Jin at the table in the dining room and eating the dinner he made. As we were basking in the sweet evening feels, the news from the TV grabbed my attention. Since the start of the year, there had been a problem with a mysterious killer around the town targeting young women. But in here past few weeks the killer became more active and more ruthless with his victims. The police knew the murder were all committed by the same person from the wounds of the victims and the blood written message left every time by the killer. "Bloodbath Fever". And it also seems the Killer narrowed his victim's choice to college girls. This made me uneasy but fortunately, I didn't go out at night and if I did I was always with someone. Jin seemed worried too.
" I don't like this, I can pick you up after your evening classes you know? That way it will be safer."
" I can't bother you like this, Jin. You already have so much to do and you need to rest. Don't worry Jungkook or Taehyung can always bring me home."
He sighed but reluctantly accepted my argument and the rest of our dinner went on uneventfully... urgent knocking on the front door. Seokjin stood up to see who could be this distressed and was surprised to see a nervous Yoongi who didn't wait to get invited before entering the house and nervously pacing in the living room. The older man soon came back after closing the door and locking in confusion at his nervous brother.
" What are you doing here- WAIT! HOW DID YOU GET MY ADDRESS? I TOLD NONE OF YOU!"
" Y/n's phone localization."
" Excuse me? What- "
Yoongi cut him off by sitting on the couch and sighing deeply. I and Seokjin sat down too as we waited for him to speak.
" As you know, I'm the current head of the household since Jin decided to leave. However, I can't do it anymore. There's too much pressure on my shoulders between work, the house, my mom, and my friends... I want to leave. So either you come back as the head or I'm marrying Y/n and Hoseok will have to step up as it's the only other way I can leave."
The older man was surprised by the sudden influx of information but had a frown on his face.
" Yoongi if you just wanted to get rid of the responsibility you should have done just like me and moved away without asking. And don't even think about marrying Y/n! She's mine- I mean she's dating Jungkook and it's not like you already proposed to her or something. "
I meekly interrupted him.
" Hum actually, I'm his fake fiancee."
" What?! How come you get to be his fiancee and not mine?!"
The discussion then went on to get more ridiculous as the hours on the clock ticked by...
It was one a.m when I was on my bed still staring at my ceiling with the light outside illuminating some rays inside. I found myself unable to sleep when my phone screen lit up from an incoming call from Hoseok.
" Hey Hobi, not asleep yet? "
" Hey Starlight, I found myself quite awake and...I just called you! Although I'm surprised you're awake at this time haha."
" Do you always call someone like that when you can't sleep?"
" Nope! I guess I just missed you... But hey! Check out outside your window!"
Still holding the phone to my ear, I opened my window and looked outside, glancing up the night sky was clear and showed a multitude of stars. I couldn't suppress the gasp at the sight making the dancer chuckles on the other side of the line.
" I take it you saw it too? Somehow knowing we're looking at the same sky together makes me feel closer to you. "
" You really did miss me didn't you Hobi? "
There was some shuffling over the line and I could practically hear the small pout on his lips as I imagined him sulking on his bed in distress.
" Yeah! And I miss how happy you make me Starlight! "
" The way you say it, it sounds like you aren't happy when I'm not with you. "
" Of course I am!! Just...I guess I'm scared of losing my Starlight. "
My heart warmed hearing those words coming from his mouth, I felt my eyes sting a little bit. Even though he said it in such an innocent tone, I still managed to sense the slight hint of sadness he held within it. Before I could say anything, I heard a mumble on the other side of the line from someone else.
" You're not alone? "
" Ah... Well, a groggy cat decided to sleep in my room tonight. You know how Yoongi can be sometimes. "
I snickered at the comment and then suddenly noticed someone standing on the sidewalk beside my house with their shadow covering most of their face. It was hard to tell who it was but I did notice the long black trench coat and a pair of dark glasses. The guy was probably observing Jin's house as well. I was so focused on the figure almost missed Hoseok's next words.
" Hey Y/n... Could we stay on the phone till we fall asleep? We don't have to talk, just hearing you is enough."
" Alright Hoseok, I don't mind. "
In fact, having him on the phone comforted me from the memory of this strange person on the sidewalk. And so I was able to peacefully sleep while listening to each other breath...

The next day, at my tutoring session after class, I was surprised to enter the room to see two other person beside Namjoon. Said man wasn't particularly thrilled at the sight of the two students. I recognized them as Beomgyu and Kai, both them recognizing me too as they beam in joy and sent me large smile to Namjoon utmost despair.
" Hello! Good afternoon! We'll just get straight to the topic, okay? "
Namjoon sighed and motioned for Kai to begin as Beomgyu took the seat beside him. Kai gave me a quick hug which surprised me before he took my hand and pulled me to sit in the chair to him. Our tutor eye was twitching from irritation at the childish behavior of the boys, it was like dealing with two Taehyung. He simply sighed before addressing the situation at hand.
" Well, we are all surprised by our situation today. Due to a shortage of tutors, I have to take care of the three of you from now on. Although this differs from our usual arrangement remember this isn't a class, this is a study session. Now Y/n this won't change anything about what we've been doing until now. And you two. "
He sends them a pointed look. They both understood the unsaid message and fervently nodded.
" Very well then, I heard you have a test next week. So we're going to do some reviewing, and try to keep up. "
And so that's how my usual tutoring sessions with Namjoon turned more into a hangout hour with Beomgyu and Kai as the two of them acted silly during the whole session. Even though I wasn't close to them before, this time together was surely going to bring us close.
" How come we weren't friends before? You're amazing! "

*Sipping orange juice in wtf*
I don't know what the hell I'm doing anymore besides the romantic Hoseok.
Well, the tutoring session too. I guess only the start of the chapter was quite fucked up. But it's serious plot.
I wonder how Namjoon will survive with 3 students to tutor, Beomgyu and Kai included.
On this note,
Stay tuned for more!~☆
