You woke up with a start, traces of a dream about Taehyung still fresh in you mind. You rubbed your eyes and looked around the dark room you shared with your brother. The soft roar of the city outside contrasting with the silent tension inside.

Your gaze fell on his guitar, propped against the wall, and a wave of nostalgia hit you. You could almost hear him strumming it, his fingers dancing over the strings, filling the room with melodies that always lifted your spirits.

I miss you so much, baby brother.

With a deep sigh, you pushed yourself out of bed, and moved quietly. As you opened the door, you glanced back at the guitar one last time.

Hold on, Taehyung. We're coming for you.

The hallway was quiet, but as you approached the common area, you could hear voices and the clinking of metal.

In the makeshift armory, Yoongi, Jin, and Jungkook were busy checking their gear. Yoongi was meticulously cleaning a rifle, Jin was sorting through a box of grenades, and Jungkook was inspecting a set of knives. The three of them were bantering back and forth.

"Yoongi, if you polish that thing any more, it'll be too shiny for a stealth mission," Jin teased, a grin spreading across his face.

Yoongi shot him a mock glare. "You just focus on not blowing us up with those grenades."

Jin laughed, shaking his head. "Relax, I only almost blew us up once. Or twice."

Jungkook chuckled, joining in. "I think we're all doomed if Jin's in charge of explosives. Maybe we should just let him handle the snacks instead."

Jin raised an eyebrow, smirking. "Hey, I make a mean sandwich. Don't underestimate my culinary skills."

Yoongi snorted. "Fantastic. So if Jin doesn't blow us up, his cooking will finish the job."

You couldn't help but smile at their banter. Despite the situation, they managed to find moments of joy. It was comforting to see them bonding, finding some common ground.

Aww look at them! Jungkook fits right in.

You stepped into the room, drawing their attention.

"Morning," you greeted, your voice still rough from sleep.

"Morning, y/n," Jin replied with a grin. "Ready for some action today?"

Yoongi smirked. "Morning, sunshine. Did you sleep alright, dreaming about our glorious mission?"

Jungkook's eyes lit up as he looked at you. "Good morning, y/n. Sleep okay? You looked pretty exhausted last night."

Your cheeks flushed a deep red. "I slept fine, thanks," you replied, trying to maintain your composure.

Yoongi raised an eyebrow, a teasing glint in his eye. "Looks like someone's got a little romance brewing."

Your face burned as you shot Yoongi a death stare. "Shut it, smartass."

You turned your attention to Jin. "What's the plan?"

"Well," Jin began, "we were thinking of a little training session. Jungkook here is eager to show off his moves."

Jungkook's eyes sparkled. "I need to prove myself to you guys. Make sure you know I can pull my weight."

You frowned, pointing at his injured shoulder. "Are you sure you're up for it? Your wound is still fresh."

You took Jungkook aside, away from the others. "Seriously, Jungkook, are you sure you're ready for this? I don't want you to hurt yourself."

He stepped closer, his gaze tender as he looked into your eyes. "I'll be fine, y/n. Trust me."

You sighed, reaching out to touch his arm gently. "Just don't push yourself too hard, okay?"

Jungkook smiled, a playful glint in his eye. "Are you worried about me? I didn't know you cared that much."

You rolled her eyes, though you couldn't help but smile. "Of course I care, you idiot. You're part of the team now."

His smile widened. "Part of the team, huh? Don't worry, I'll be careful, I promise. Besides, who'll watch your back if I don't?"

Your heart skipped a beat at his words.

Ugh, y/n, stop it already! Focus on the mission.

"Just take it easy, okay?" You said, trying to keep your tone steady.

"I will," he promised, his touch lingering for a moment before you turned to join the others.
