[Back in the dorm]
"YAH! Jung Hoseok!" Jin's shrill scream traveled through the kitchen and into the living room where the younger floppy haired boy was playing with Taehyung's puppy.
Startled, he jumped up from his seat, dog in hand. "WAE WAE WAE?" he asked, briskly walking over in large exaggerated strides.
Jin looked at the table of dishes and noticed a piece of meat missing from the top. With his long chopsticks, he waved at the meat valley created by it. "You picked a piece didn't you?"
With a horrified expression, he raised an arm in fluster pointing at the living room, "Hyung! I was there the whole time! It's not me!"
Jin rested his arms on his hips, frowning in annoyance. "There's no one else at home except the both of us."
"But why hyung... it's gonna get eaten at the end of the day anyway so what's the big problem right?" The loud younger boy smiled cheekily as he reached for his phone to snap a photo of the sumptuous spread before them. "Gonna send this pic and you'll see them rush back in no time."
At once, when the photo was sent, a door opened from down the hallway. Both Jin and Hoseok looked up at each other immediately, realising it was the 2 scaredy cowards who were left in the house. "Hyung! I thought you said no one else was back?" he whispered.
With eyes glued to the hallway, a sleepy boy dragging his feet emerged from the room.
"Yah, Taehyung-ah, you scared us! Were you always in the room for the whole time?" Jin asked, still wondering if he was the culprit of the missing meat.
He rubbed his beady eyes, "No, I got back awhile ago but none of you responded to me when I walked by so I just went to take a nap."
Hoseok returned the puppy into his hands and asked quickly, "the meat tastes good yea?"
"What meat? I came out because I saw dinner's finally ready." Asked Tae.
There stood 3 frozen boys, wondering if there were more of them in the dorm that had grown larger than they could keep their eyes on.
Tae didn't quite get it but it didn't matter to him. "O...K... Let's just... eat? Where's Chae-rin?"

[At the studio]
Jungkook was a smiley mess having you surprise him at work. He knew work was going to get busy soon and he desperately wanted to spend more time with you, help you settle in and figure out a solution to keep you close to him. He knew it wasn't going to be possible to take you with him everywhere but leaving you alone in the dorm while he worked overseas wasn't exactly what he wanted.
"Jungkook?" You called out to him while he was deep in thought. "What's the matter?"
He shook his head, looking between his schedule and you. "I'm just wondering how to keep you in my bag while we travel."
"What?!"
With a laugh and slight sigh, he sunk down into his expensive swivel chair.
"I want you to come with me everywhere, be it here, overseas, or just... I don't know, I just don't want you out of my sight." With a forlorn expression, he reached out to caress your back, sliding his hand to catch your palm in his.
"But..." he continued, "I know it's not possible."
You smile a little at him, "I was joking about following you abroad, don't worry. I'm a grown up and I can take care of myself - and cope with you being away for a week or two? We've been through that and more haven't we?"
At times like these, you felt like he was such a baby and it wasn't that you wanted to mother him, but you couldn't help but try to talk sense into him when he was into that mode. You knew he was just being honest with his feelings and that was something you liked about him - he always spoke his mind, and it was hard to get angry with his pure honesty.
"Anyway, I came with Yoongi-oppa, we should get going. There's dinner waiting."
At the thought of his food, Jungkook's bright eyes widened and he sprang up from his chair in glee - "Oh yes! Jin-hyung! Let's get Namjoonie-hyung and go."
As the boys gather themselves and take you with them, you notice fans at the entrance of the building. Even though they were heading to the basement car park, openly, in glass elevators, you couldn't help but feel self-conscious as if you were going to get caught for doing something illegal.
"Do fans find you at the dorms?" you ask out of curiosity, keeping your eyes on the girls camped out along the road with cameras.
"Hmm, now that we've moved into a higher security area, it's only those who probably live within the compound but they don't really pose a threat. They don't know exactly which unit we're at." The leader spoke calmly, assessing your question. "Are you concerned? You don't have to be, at least not when we are together in a group like this."
Jungkook in a hurry came out of the studio without a mask or hood and as he turned around to look out of the elevator, eagle-eyed fans spotted his face as they began standing up and waving. Some began to rush to the entrance only to be stopped by security.
Quickly the doors opened at the basement and some screams were heard from a distance. Having 4 taller boys obstruct your view made you wonder just how near or far these fans were and if they were even able to catch a glimpse of their favourite stars after camping out there for goodness-knows-how-long.
They strolled to the car like an everyday affair, while Namjoon put on his sunglasses out of habit. It was almost like the screams were his cue to wear them.
"Jungkook-ah, you should pull down the shades later at the rear before we drive out, got it?" reminded Yoongi, as he started the engine of his car with heavily darkened windows. "Those floodlights fans have nowadays are almost X-ray vision - I'm sure they'll catch snaps of Chae-rin even though my glass is almost blacked out."
True enough, as he drove out, some fans were already waiting at the exit with their long lenses, and they knew his car by the number, waving and shooting flashes at them.
"I want to wave but, they don't even know I'm inside." said Namjoon as he pressed his face close to the glass, observing the behavior of his fans.
You scooted closer to Jungkook at the backseat and lowered yourself, just in case.
"Those lights and screams are quite scary huh?"He smirked. "They're really quite something."
You sensed the pride in his voice and the love for the fans.
"You should just wind down the window and tell them to make their way home." You said, unsure if it was out of worry for the fans or jealousy on your part.
"Shall I?" Jungkook asked, his hand on the button.
"NO!!" came a resounding scream from his older brothers, followed by a stare from Yoongi through the mirror.
"Chae-rin ah, I didn't take you here to put our lives in danger, you should know better than that?" He half-chided in a nasal tone that was gentle yet annoyed.
You could only laugh with Jungkook silently as he quickly pacified his older brothers and talked about other things all the way home.
When the boys had all gathered, it was a spread of comfort food and apparently Jin hadn't cooked in many months so it was quite a grand affair that got everyone together at the table.
"Jimin-ah," you called out to him as he wondered where he should sit, being last to join as usual. You waved him to sit beside you and he gladly obliged. He had just come home straight from a shoot, with full makeup, suit and all. You saw him this way countless of times ever since your first encounter with him and the boys but you knew for as long as you had female hormones, there was no way you would ever get used to seeing him looking like a million bucks and not stare.
Although he was smiling, he seemed a little troubled. The rest of the boys however, were more interested in the food than their smiley brother.
"Had a long day?" You asked as he started tugging off his blazer and rolling up his sleeves.
He greeted you warmly, "Nah... I'm doing good. So what did you do today?" He casually poured himself a drink while you told him about what you did and the bits of stuff that happened.
"Aaah, Kookie's studio? You went to the company?" He gave a knowing nod, "that child's got alot of work up his sleeves lately... he's gonna get busy."
Jungkook finally snapped out of his gluttony and turned the other way to see Jimin and you conversing in low tones.
"What you guys talking about?" he asked with a mouth full of rice.
Jokingly, Jimin hushed you down, "don't let him hear us talking about him!"
"Aaah HYUNG!!" he frowned at Jimin, almost whining, making the older boy break into an eye-smile, obviously unable to resist the cuteness of an annoyed Jungkook.
"Arraseo... I was just joking around with her. Anyway, did you hear about the schedule next week?" Almost at once, his face turned serious as he brought up the plans for work.
Jungkook pondered for a moment as he swallowed his food, "I know the dates and that we're going to record some stuff, why? Did the schedule change?"
Jimin looked around, wondering if he should get the attention of the older brothers and caught sight of Jin who was also chewing his food in a daze.
"Jin-hyung," he called out across the long table, "about the schedule next week, have you heard any updates?"
His voice got the attention of his brothers as they all turned to him to listen.
"No, why? The last I saw, it was a schedule for about a week to Japan and that's all."
Jimin put down his chopsticks and cleared his throat, "actually... I just heard it today from our stylist noona... it seems we will be travelling out from there to a few other shoots this time and might not return for 3 weeks."
Silently, he turned to look at you and Jungkook, while the rest of the boys kept still.
"Oh." You replied, "that sucks for me huh."
At once, your blatantly honest response got them all laughing - all except for Jungkook, who's mind was travelling at lightspeed to think of a solution.
Jimin sighed, "I'm not sure yet because these things usually get told to us quite last minute and I overheard this, so we need to confirm it first."
The night went by and you got tired quickly, heading off to bed while the boys showered and chilled out on their own. It was, afterall, a long and eventful second day for you in their dorm.
Just when you were almost falling asleep on Jungkook's bed, he crept in and knelt beside you, careful not to wake you up but his scent that whiffed past was too alluring that made the corners of your mouth twitch into a smile.
"Why are you smiling?" he whispered, making you open your eyes to see his face inches away from you.
"Because of you?" you whispered back and he came closer to nuzzle his nose against yours cutely. "I'm sleepy, Jungkook... It's the hormones..." you mumbled as your heavy lids shut again.
"I know... I'll be here until you fall asleep..."
That was the last thing you heard before you felt a blanket gently cover you, and your senses were completely taken over by your dreams.

"Jimin-ah, are you sure about it?" Namjoon asked as he strolled into the living area where the younger boy was sprawled out on the sofa with Taehyung. Propping himself up with one hand, he met the serious eyes of the leader.
"I think it's 90% going to happen this way. What should we do?"
As they all sat around, they were joined by Jin and Yoongi who were also trying to think of a way out for Jungkook and yourself.
In a low and eloquent manner of speech, he began. "Firstly, Jungkook's got to be mentally prepared - I don't think he was expecting this. Then Chae-rin needs to be able to move in and out freely without us, especially to the clinic. Alot could happen in 3 weeks."
Yoongi frowned, "couldn't she just come with us?"
"What?" Jin frowned back at him, "how?"
He crossed his arms and went into his deep thinking mode, furrowing his brows as they waited for his genius to spark.
Hoseok, who had been thinking about it in his room, emerged as he heard the content of the chatter.
"He's right - she could come with us. She just needs to be part of the staff, isn't that what you meant hyung?"
Jimin clapped his hands together in realisation. "Aaahhh.. That's right, why didn't I think of that!!"
Namjoon stood up, a smile on his face.
"That settles it then. I'll speak to the company tomorrow and guys, let's keep this from Jungkook."
