CONTAINS STRONG LANGUAGE, FLUFF, & MINOR ANGST
_
The warmth of the sunlight filtering in through Jimin's bedroom forced a moan from my throat. I lay curled up against his chest, the blonde muttering listlessly in his sleep as he dug his fingers into my clothed hip. One arm was draped out over his mattress, phone limp against the palm of his hand. The screen was black and smudged with fingerprints, having shut off sometime in the night. A smile adorned my face as I remembered Jimin coming to find me in the darkness of the late-night storm, his hands cupping my face and peppering it with soft kisses to calm me down. I giggled quietly, wrapping my arms limply around his shoulders, and pressed my face against his neck as his arm tightened around my back.
"You awake, angel?" Jimin croaked groggily, pressing a kiss against my temple. I hummed in response, leaning back and reaching up to drag my hand along his cheek, turning him to face me. The blonde's cheeks were painted a rosy pink in the morning light, a soft smile adorning his face as his lips brushed over my nose.
"Morning, baby girl."
His voice sent a shiver down my spine, my thighs beginning to burn. I quietly cursed myself for getting flustered so easily, hiding my face away in Jimin's neck as he draped his other arm over my back. He held me protectively against his chest, fingers drawing lazy circles against my clothed skin. "You sleep okay?" he whispered, lips brushing against my ear.
"Yeah," I sighed, looking up at him. "Thanks to you."
Jimin smirked down at me, his eyes tiny slits against his face. He pressed a kiss against my forehead, the skin beneath his lips blossoming with a warmth that gradually flowed throughout my body. I hummed with pleasure, thankful for the blonde's comfort throughout the morning; grateful that I could wake up in his arms and feel safe and loved.
Our eyes remained locked for what felt like minutes, my breathing growing quick as he inched closer. I wanted to kiss him more than anything. I wanted Jimin to roll us over against his bed, have his lips trailing over my skin. I wanted to whimper his name over and over again as his touch ceased the quivering of my thighs, but something didn't feel right. He paused, his phone vibrating on his pillow. Mine began to buzz against my hip, hidden in the pocket of my shorts. I pulled it out and looked at the screen, blinking repeatedly at the notification before I clicked open the chat.

JIMIN
Yoongi, she doesn't hate you
YOONGI
How do you know?
JIMIN
Because I can tell
JIMIN
She misses you so much🥺
JIMIN
I'm sure if you just apologized, she'd take you back

YOONGI
Okay :)
JUNGKOOK
Okay, as I was saying
JUNGKOOK
When we go back to work
JUNGKOOK
Won't it be risky bringing Yumin in the office and to
our studios?
TAEHYUNG
I don't care anymore
TAEHYUNG
We're not forbidden from dating
JIMIN
Even so, how would they react if they found out she was dating
all four of us?
JIMIN
Or that we're dating each other?
JUNGKOOK
Can we get fired for that?
YOONGI
They can't fire us, but I can imagine we'd get some dirty looks
TAEHYUNG
So what!?
TAEHYUNG
Sejin already knows what's going on between the seven of us
TAEHYUNG
And even if someone else found out
TAEHYUNG
If Sihyuk-ssi found out
TAEHYUNG
They wouldn't tell the press
TAEHYUNG
It's our personal life; not everyone in the whole fucking world needs to
know who's ass has my name on it
JIMIN
Flattering💀
YOONGI
He's right though
JUNGKOOK
What about when we go on tour?
JIMIN
Okay, one problem at a time, Koo
JIMIN
We still need to get Yumin and Yoongi back together
TAEHYUNG
And figure out when Seokjin hyung flies in
YOONGI
Oh, fuck, I forgot about him😳

Jimin watched as Yumin stretched across his chest to plop her phone atop his nightstand, humming under her breath as she shifted to cuddle him further. Her head nuzzled against his, breath hot against the side of his neck. The blonde tightened his arms around her waist, gently tracing up and down her spine as she sighed with pleasure, a smile adorning her pretty face.
The desire to kiss the brunette was almost painful, a hot streaking blossoming above his pelvis at the thought. He had hoped for this moment with Yumin wrapped up in his arms, the two of them cuddling beneath his covers as his hands gently rubbed along her backside. Jimin hummed in the back of his throat, trailing his lips down the side of her face. His touch elicited unsteady whimpers from Yumin's throat, the brunette pressing her thighs together as she fisted the collar of his shirt.
"Can we cuddle for a little longer?" Yumin whispered, letting her eyes flutter closed. He pecked the space between her eyes with butterfly kisses, the brunette giggling beneath his touch as she ran a hand through his hair.
"I thought you'd never ask, angel," he chuckled, cupping her cheek. Yumin blushed as a lazy smirk adorned her face, nuzzling closer to him as she made to doze off. Jimin's heart lept dangerous heights inside his chest, his gaze searching her face as she mumbled under her breath. "Wanna sleep a little more?"
"Yes," Yumin grumbled, running a finger down his neck.
"You sleepy?"
"Mhmm." Yumin buried her face against his neck, Jimin holding her tightly against his chest as he murmured in her ear. Within minutes, the brunette was sleeping soundly, a smile painted on her face as she cuddled up against him. He continued pressing kisses against her cheek, thankful that he could even hold her in his arms again. He'd missed drowning her in affection, her distance from the blonde making his heartache.
With a soft smile, Jimin let his eyes flutter closed, thoughts swarming with ways to put Yoongi in the place he was in now. He knew the brunet missed Yumin; he seemed to be hurting more than she was. But, with his girlfriend in a better mood, Jimin was sure that Yoongi could mend their relationship in a matter of time.

I heard Kiana coming up the stairs before I could see her. The brunette burst into my room with Yeontan and Nari trailing after her, toothy grins adorning their faces as their tongues lolled out the sides of their mouths. They danced about her feet as Kiana skipped towards my bed, a cardboard cup holder balanced in her hand as she extended it towards me. Two Starbucks cups we placed inside the holders, one half-empty, the other filled with ice and a milky pink liquid.
"Pink one," Kiana grinned, bouncing on the balls of her feet.
"Thanks," I smiled softly, taking my cup and holding it with my warm hands. After I had woken up about an hour ago, I'd changed from my shorts and black shirt into a sports bra fitted with Jimin's army green hoodie and a pair of cuffed jeans, my feet bare atop the beige carpeting.
"So," I drew out, watching as Kiana seated herself atop my bed, sucking at her mocha coffee excitedly. "What'd you have to give me?"
The brunette's grin widened a fraction as she peered up at me. I could already see her sugar high radiating about her dark brown eyes, freckled cheeks bunched up in a knowing smile as she began toying with something in the front pocket of her red hoodie. I watched her with furrowed brows, a smile breaking out across my face as excitement coursed through my veins.
"What're you hiding?" I reached down, fingers brushing against the front of Kiana's pocket. She jerked her hand away, setting her coffee down in the cupholder as she scooted back, legs folded, onto my bed.
I furrowed my brow further with a smile, sitting down before her and waiting for the brunette to show me her present. After a moment's hesitation, she pulled out two small cardboard boxes colored with white and pink streaks. Kiana hid the brand name from me, placing both of her hands atop the boxes to hide them further.
"Don't get mad at me," she blurted, still jittering with energy.
"Why would I get mad?"
Kiana flipped the boxes upright, exposing the brand name to me. My eyes scanned over them, gradually widening as I realized what they were. "Birth control?" I questioned, becoming visibly confused. She nodded, pushing them into my hands and shifting to face me.
"I was gonna give them to you sooner, but... I didn't think that would be a good idea." The freckled brunette shrugged, looking up at me hopefully as a softer smile blossomed on her face. "But, you're feeling better now, and by the time these take effect-" Kiana pointed down at the birth control, my gaze following. "-everything should be back to normal with you three."
"'You three'?" I cocked my head to the side. "I'm not upset with Jimin anymore."
"I know, but you're still not the same. You haven't kissed him in almost a week."
"I know!" I threw my hands helplessly in the air. "But, how can I show affection to the others when Yoongi is hurting across the hall?"
Kiana shook her head, reaching out to clasp my hands in hers. "I know he's still upset, but, he'll apologize soon, I know he will. And him being moody about you ignoring him isn't a reason to mess up your relationships with Jungkook, Taehyung, and Jimin. You can still show them affection; still sleep with them." She prodded me in my side with her elbow, offering me a smirk. I chuckled in reply, nodding along with her words as I let them sink in.
Kiana was right; just because I was stressed over Yoongi didn't mean I had to neglect my other three boyfriends. I could still hug, cuddle, and kiss the others like normal. Yoongi and I had our own problems to deal with, and I didn't need to deprive the other three of my affectionate displays. I felt an overwhelming feeling of desire consume me, butterflies flitting about my stomach. My thighs began to quiver ever so slightly; I tugged my sweatshirt over my knees to hide it. With a smirk, I leaned forward, gathering the brunette in my arms and pulling her against me.
"Thanks, Ki. I guess. "
"No problem, kid." Kiana chuckled.
I giggled, picking up the two packs of birth control and placing them beside me on the bed. Kiana rested her head against my lap, peering up at me as she reached for my drink. I let her take it, the brunette sipping at it until it was almost half empty. With a snort, I snatched it back, taking a sip before discarding it on my bed.
"You're on your period, aren't you?" Kiana blurted. I was taken aback by the question, staring down at her as I fisted the side of my jeans.
"It started today. Why?"
"Take the birth control now."
She reached for a pack and tore it open, pulling the foil plating out and cracking open a small, white pill that was the size of a grain of rice. Kiana waved it in my face as if to taunt me, her other hand grabbing at my drink and balancing it against her ribs. I took the pill and drink from her hand, eyeing them both cautiously before popping the pill in my mouth. I chased it down with a swig of the sickly pink liquid, smacking my lips together as I felt it slip down my throat.
"Now what?" I asked.
"Wait a couple of days, and then ditch the condoms."
"I...hate you," I stumbled, staring down at Kiana with creased eyes. She grinned back up at me, reaching up to pat the side of my face playfully.
"You'll be thanking me later; trust me."

Yoongi's heart thundered so loud in his chest it was as if it were being magnified in the cavern of his head. The intensity of it made his breathing grow heavy, his hand resting against Yumin's doorknob. The brunet tightened his fingers around the bronze object protruding from her door, pushing himself inside and quietly shutting it behind him. The main lights of Yumin's room were shut off, nothing but one of the bedside lamps illuminating the motionless girl in the shadows. She sat atop her bed, hands clasped in her lap as she gazed up at him. Yoongi found it incredible how well she kept herself composed, not a stray emotion visible on her beautiful face as she inclined her head for him to sit beside her. He awkwardly shuffled to her bedside, lowering himself against the mattress as he cleared his throat.
"I'm sorry this is so sudden" he mumbled shyly, Yumin's blank gaze penetrating his soul. "I thought you'd still be wide awake."
Yumin licked the corner of her plump lips, a butterfly flitting about his stomach. For days, Yoongi had relayed how he wanted his apology to go. How he hoped Yumin would react to him being beside her, clasping her hands in his. All he'd wanted was to feel her lips crash with his, to moan her name possessively as he pulled the girl against him. He just wanted to call Yumin his again.
"I said I was about to go to sleep," the brunette stated calmly, her eyes unblinking. "You know I can't fall asleep that quickly."
Her words felt like a punch in the stomach. Even if she hadn't meant it, Yumin's words were a personal attack against him. Yoongi knew that if Yumin was comfortable and at peace, she would be able to fall asleep very easily, especially if she were lying beside someone. But, the only possible reason for her not being able to fall asleep like normal would mean she was upset, or scared, and Yoongi knew it was all his fault.
"Yumin, I..." Her gaze. Her fucking gaze. It was throwing him off. The brunet knew how much it was hurting Yumin to finally see him again, but her unwavering stare and solidified expression revealed absolutely nothing. "I'm so sorry for what I said. I didn't mean it at all. You know I love you more than anything."
"Then why'd you say it?" Yumin's cheeks flamed a dark red, her eyes beginning to gloss over with tears. "Why would you say you didn't love me? Especially when you knew how much that would hurt me!?"
"Because I was upset, okay!? I was upset that you didn't trust me enough to tell me why you were crying that morning, and I wanted you to know how bad that made me feel. But, I shouldn't have said that. I shouldn't have tried to hurt you at all. You had the right to your privacy and I should've left you be until you were ready to tell me what was wrong. I shouldn't have tried to push you, and I know I fucked up really, really badly-"
"Very badly," Yumin mumbled, cocking an eyebrow.
Yoongi nodded, reaching out to unclasp her hands and hold them in his. The brunette let them fall limp in his grasp, making his heart thud nervously in his chest. What if Yumin didn't forgive him? What if Jimin was wrong, and she only appeared to miss him? Yoongi shook his head, dislodging those forsaken thoughts that made his breathing grow quick.
"'Very badly,'" he mimicked. "Tremendously, insanely bad. But, I will do whatever it takes for me to make you understand how much I truly love you. To show you that I'm in love with you, Yumin."
Yumin's eyes widened, almost in shock, her hands freezing up in his. He held on to them tightly, brushing his thumb over her knuckles as they locked eyes, a dark blush trailing over his pudgy cheeks.
"You're in love with me?"
"Yes I am," Yoongi replied with a nod. He daringly reached up to grip her chin, angling her face so that it was level with his. He wanted to kiss the brunette so damn badly, but something in his head told Yoongi to be patient, so instead, he offered a light peck against her forehead. Pulling away, he saw Yumin's eyes soften in the light of her bedside lamp, her chest heaving as if she were holding in tears.
"You don't have to forgive me," Yoongi breathed softly, watching as a stray tear slipped down her rosy cheek. He brushed it away with the pad of his thumb. "I really don't expect you to, but, I'll still wait. I'll wait however long it takes for me to get you back." Yoongi couldn't possibly say much else to the brunette, pulling his hands back in his lap and standing up. Yeontan padded out of the darkness, greeting him with a sneeze before hopping up on the bed beside Yumin. She pulled the Pomeranian onto her lap, watching the brunet make his way to the door. He offered her one last glance, her eyes outlined red with tears, foot tapping anxiously atop her beige carpet.
"Goodnight, Yumin," Yoongi mumbled, his lips turned up into a soft smile before he shut himself out in the darkness of the hallway.

I am absolutely vibing right now when I should be dead asleep. It's almost midnight and I'm up writing fanfiction while listening to glitchcore; ain't no better way to spend my night instead of doing homework. Anything but homework. <3
Also, I'm glad to see so many of you enjoying my book. I've seen a flood of new readers recently, and I hope you're all having a good read. :) It makes me so happy to see your comments throughout each chapter!!
