Racing Hearts
"Inside this envelope are the pairings for the rooms, they been voted by the public," Namjoon picks up a large yellow envelope with a red circle printed on the opening. "All I know is that you can't change rooms unless you go to The Man."
The Talented share confused looks; who is The Man?
"The Man is a male voice that announces things anonymously via the speakers throughout the house, for example, if you break a rule he will announce to the house that you have broken a rule." Taehyung explains, smiling at our glances. "You can have a one on one conversation with him in a secluded room in the basement, sometimes he will ask one of us to go down there."
"I'm not sure how I feel about that," Seohya laughs nervously. "I'm sure I'll get used to it though."
"We all will," Lilly wraps an arm around Seohya. "There's nothing to be worried about, remember what our manager said to us before."
"Who wants to know who they're sharing a room with?" Namjoon announces, grabbing everyone's attention. "First, there are some rules written down here for the rooms. No swapping, no sexual activities, no bullying, no stealing, no harassment, no cursing and no noise after ten o'clock at night. I'll start from the bottom, Seokjin and I are sharing a room.."
Seokjin punches the air and pats Namjoon's shoulders.
"Lilly and Hoseok."
Seohya and I give Lilly the thumbs up as she nods to us smiling.
"I'm nervous," Seohya whispers into my ear. "I think I will die if I share a room with Jimin..."
"Me too, but with Jungkook," I whisper back. "It never came to my mind that we would share rooms with boys."
"Milae and Taehyung."
I cling onto Seohya's arm to stifle my giggles, Milae is known by all to dislike 'unnecessarily loud people', if I had a chance to vote I too would have voted for them two to be together. Poor Taehyung, I wonder if he has read about the rumours about Milae's dislike towards him?
"Yuoi and Yoongi."
Watching Yoongi's eyes light up made me warm inside, will Jungkook have the same reaction towards me? Most likely not, I should stamp on my hopes now so I don't get too disappointed. This is Jeon Jungkook we're talking about, why would a guy who has millions of beautiful girls at his feet even look in my direction? Well, so does Yoongi...
"Seohya and Jimin."
Our smiles grow wide together as Seohya practically jumps up in celebration, I am very happy for her.
"And finally, Jungkook and Y/N."
Even though it was obvious as we were the only two left, it didn't shrink my shock. Jungkook and I sharing a room? What if I snore? What if I smell? What if-
"Good evening occupants," a loud male voice announces. "Your suitcases have arrived, they are at the front door that you entered by. I hope you enjoy your stay."
Everyone quickly got out of the room to get to their suitcase to unpack, yet my body has still not come to terms with the future. Should I rethink my beliefs in destiny and fate? This is such a big coincidence; not only do I live with my favourite group that has my bias in, but I also share a room with said bias? I wonder how many fans to his voted for us to share a room, my fans don't know about my crush on Jungkook but they know about Seohya's crush on Jimin and Milae's dislike towards Taehyung. Are my feelings towards Jungkook too obvious and the fans have known the entire time? No, I would have encountered more fanart and fanfiction if that was true.
"Lilly said these are yours," a voice breaks my daze, I look up to catch myself in his eyes. "There are more near the door, how many suitcases do you have altogether? I'll get them for you, Lilly and Milae were joking about how you're not very strong, it's not a bother."
Church bells ring in my head.
"She has five orange suitcases and three backpacks with strange patterns on them," Yuoi answers for me, I eternally take note to thank her later. "Lucky for you, Y/N has the only non-black items."
"Thank you, Yuoi." Jungkook bows lowly and scuttles out of the room.
"Already have Jungkook at your feet?" Yuoi smirks, setting her suitcases down. "Impressive."
I put my hands on my hips and give her 'the look' that I have learned from Lilly. Yuoi rolls her eyes and leaves the room, probably to get the rest of her bags. To be fair, I brought a lot of my belongings with me, on the morning we left I was still contemplating whether to bring my cacti collection; I didn't.
"Why are you only carrying one bag?" I ask Seohya as she struts in with one pink bag over her shoulder. "I know for sure that you packed all your shoes and they must, at least, take up two large suitcases."
"The same reason as to why you're not carrying any." Seohya sticks her tongue out before skipping her way towards me. "Jimin said he'd carry my things in here, I did refuse at first but he won me over rather quickly, too quickly if you ask me. I turn to jelly whenever I look at him, especially when we look into each other's eyes... Oh, Y/N, this is going to be a long six weeks isn't it?"
"Definitely," I try to say in a sad voice but my mouth won't stop grinning. "I'm sorry, I swear I'm trying to be serious."
"Looks like it," Seohya begins grinning too and that's how we end up staring at each other grinning. "I'm not dreaming am I? You would tell me if it was, right?"
"If this was a dream I would be a figure of your imagination and not actually myself," I begin to fidget with my fingers, my eyes occasionally wandering to the doorway. "But yes, I would tell you."
She takes me to the sofa, which we both throw ourselves onto, and heavily sigh. Sitting up, I decide to take in my surroundings properly. This room seems to be the lounge area, a plasma TV the size of my bedroom wall in the company's dorms, one wall is made entirely of window, the rest of the white walls are decorated with paintings, like the corridor, and shelves with plants, other than the sofa and coffee table, the room has no other furniture. There are three white doors, one of which is open as that goes into the corridor to the door we originally entered through, the second door is on the same wall but that one is to the kitchen. The kitchen is an open space, there is barely any wall separating the kitchen to the lounge so I can see into the kitchen from the sofa. The last door is behind me, it is taking all of my willpower to not go and explore the house with Seohya but I know that I should wait for the others.
"I know that we shouldn't, especially since Jimin and Jungkook are carrying out bags for us but," Seohya turns to me, her eyes wide with a mischievous glint. "Do you want to go look around the house too?"
"I want to," I begin as everybody starts piling into the lounge, Namjoon is last pushing a compartment with wheels full of suitcases. "But we should do this as a group."
"Who wants to go and explore the house first before taking out all of the suitcases?" Namjoon asks, leaning on Seokjin. "I'm tired.."
"I want to explore!"
"Me too!"
"Let's go!"
If I didn't know everyone's ages, I'd assume we were all children by our reactions.
"Ladies first," Taehyung smiles, opening the door, The Talented quickly make our way through.
It wasn't long before we adjusted to the bright lights that illuminated another corridor, four doors littered the walls, two on each side, with signs hanging from them. At the bottom of the corridor are a set of spiraling stairs, going downwards and upwards, coiling like a snakes spine.
"This sign says 'bathroom'," Milae states and opens the door, inside is a highly modern bathroom. A toilet sits at the back, next to a sink sculptured out of stone, with a tablet of buttons lying next to it on top of cupboards. There is no bath nor shower but on the ceiling camouflaged with the spotlights are little holes. "Nobody come in, I want to know if my assumptions are correct."
With a tap of a button next to the doorway, that I didn't see until now, water springs down on most of the bathroom, about a third of the bathroom is dry, where the toilet, sink and cupboards are.
"A better name for this would be a washroom," Lilly jokes, pressing the button again making the water come to a stop, I look at the button to see a touchpad next to it to change the temperature and power of the water; this is amazing.
"This will take all night if we search every room as a big group," Namjoon says, after everyone has gone inside and out to marvel at the technology in the bathroom. "Let's split into our pairings; I'll go with Seokjin, Lilly and Hoseok, Milae and Taehyung, Seohya and Jimin and Y/N and Jungkook. You can search every room in the house, but your main objective should to be to find your room. After you have unpacked, then you can explore the rest of the house. Deal?"
We all nod in agreement, Seohya and I catch a glance towards each other, we give each other the thumbs up.
"Race you to the next floor," Jungkook nudges me, taking off in a sprint down the corridor. "Winner to our room has first pick on the bed."
"Is he serious?" I say under my breath before racing after him, I do not want to sleep in an uncomfortable bed for six weeks. "Jeon Jungkook! Let me win!"
I reach the bottom of the stairway as I hear his footsteps quickly receding upwards, I already know that this stairway is going to make me dizzy more times than I can count in my time living here. Holding onto the bannister like someone learning ballet, I use it for support and direction in making my way to the top. I get to the first floor to see Jungkook leaning on the wall, grinning at me. I can't lie, he looks hot.
"I'll take the doors on the left," Jungkook pushes himself off the wall and gets into the position that runners do. "You get the right, ready, steady, go!"
The first door on my right says 'Namjoon and Seokjin', the second is another bathroom, the third says 'supply room' and the fourth says 'Yuoi and Yoongi'.
"No luck?" Jungkook smirks. "That means our room is on the top floor-"
I am already sprinting up the stairs, I can hear him not far behind me which only makes me run faster. Not only am I winning, I haven't fallen over yet; this is a night of miracles. On the top floor, I reach the first door, on the sign in bold, black letters 'Y/N and Jungkook'.
A/N
This was a little rushed as I am super tired and I need sleep. Thank you for reading, if any of you are secretly rich please enter my DMs (I'm joking, but not really). I'm trying to get back on schedule with both my writing and reading on WattPad, which is beginning to be a struggle already and it's only February. Good night!
