Chapter 10
I closed my eyes tightly as I felt the wind fly past me and saw the surface of the table grow closer. I held my breath, eyes shut completely, waiting for the pain to come once my body slams down onto the table, possibly even dying from the fall, but the pain never comes. I feel my body make a sudden movement and soon after I feel myself land feet first on the table for a split second, before tumbling about 3 times and coming to a abrupt stop. I waited for a few seconds, trying to figure out what had just happened, and slowly opened my eyes to see the dark wooden surface beneath my feet that were professionally spread apart into a kneeling position. I gasped in shock and looked up to see all eyes on me. Everyone had the same expression as I did, pure shock. I looked back down to the dark wood of the table to collect my thoughts and slowly stood up, trying to steady my wobbly legs. "Woah, y/n how did you do that?" Rapmonster said from behind me. "Uhh......I don't know, I.....had no idea I could...do that." I said, not bothering look back at him as I became unsure of my own words. 'How did I do that, and why can I just suddenly do pro tumbling? I couldn't even do a roll before without falling to my side.' I thought, trying to figure out how I could do this. "Daebak...." I heard someone say, and I turned around to see Jungkook with a huge smile on his face that hinted both excitement and being impressed. I decided to take a look at the other members' expressions as well, and saw that V was just as excited as Jungkook, Jimin had an expressionless face at first, but it changed into a sly smirk as he noticed I was looking at him, Jin was standing completely still with a blank expression frozen on his face, Rapmon's face was contorted into a questioning look as he stared at the floor in deep thought, and Jhope was just looking down at me wide-eyed with his hand still by his chest in the exact same place it was when I jumped off.
I shivered a bit from the stares but shook off the feeling as I felt my stomach growl and got an idea, smirking slightly to myself. As Rapmon continued to be transfixed in the tiled-floor, I slowly began to make my way over to his plate of breakfast, which happened to be eggs, bacon, and biscuits, a nice little American breakfast. I edged my way over to the plate as quietly as possible, careful not to catch Namjoon's attention, but I still feel the others' eyes on me. I turn around and look up to face them all, noticing all of their, still big, eyes on me, then put my finger to my lips as a signal not to give my plan away to Namjoon while continuing to walk backwards towards his plate. They all seem to get the signal and smirk down at me, nodding to show that they'll play along.
I turn back around, not wanting to waste anymore time, and quickly walked the rest of the way to his plate, not taking my eyes off of him to make sure he doesn't look up. When I finally reach the plate, I stretched my arm out to the food, finding it a bit hard to reach over the edge of the dish since it goes just below my chest, and grab a little piece of the biscuit he had and pulled it off, getting a piece that is about half the size of my hand. I jump at the sound of a loud, and clearly forced, cough and turn around to see Jimin looking at me with wide eyes that glance back and forth from me to something behind me. I turn back around and look up to see what he was trying to signal at, and gasped at what I saw. Rapmon was sitting back up in his chair, looking down at me with narrowed eyes, yet he didn't seem to be focused, probably lost in another daze. I took this as an opportunity to run, and made a straight dash for Jungkook, knowing he'd be the most likely to hide me the easiest.
I took about 7 steps and was met with a huge flesh-wall, making me let out a loud yelp and take a sharp turn, skillfully dodging the hand. My sudden skilled athleticism caught everyone off guard, including me, but I quickly recovered and started trying to run faster, surprising myself as I began to run with and almost inhuman speed (for someone my size). I heard a loud grunt from behind me and saw as a large shadow appeared from above me and started becoming bigger. I jumped up and landed back to the table with a roll, leaping over the large hand that tried to grab me from the table, and scrambled back to my feet as fast as I could. I started running again, but it soon went into a full-on sprint as my adrenaline kicked in and I swiftly ran past another grabbing hand. I was about 2 normal feet away from Jungkook as I heard a loud 'clink' and I looked over my shoulder to see that Rapmon had just knocked over his plate and all of his food had spilled over and onto the table, creating a pretty big mess.
Rapmon was momentarily distracted by Jin, who started yelling at him for the mess, and I took it as an opportunity to make a run for a nearby hiding place. As I was getting closer to Jungkook, I saw that he already had a plate of food in front of him, and an idea popped up. I ran even faster in the direction of his plate and did a baseball slide under it, settling under the edge where I couldn't be seen by anyone except for Jungkook. He seemed a bit shocked at first from my actions, but then chuckled lightly while looking down at me, and nodded to me with a small smirk, as if saying he would go along with my plan. He looked back up to the others around the table and put both of his arms on either side of his plate, helping shield me from view. I leaned back into the plate, panting heavily and trying not to laugh at the loud grumbling that Namjoon was emitting. I heard footsteps walking away from the table and tried to look over Jungkook's arm, seeing a satisfied Jin walking back to the stove while untying the strings from his apron.
A few seconds later, I couldn't hear anymore noises coming from Rapmon, so I looked around the underneath of the plate and saw that his plate was back in place with a bunch of scrambled and messed up food on top of it. "What the-where'd she go?" I could hear Namjoon say loudly, followed by quick footsteps that were pacing around the table. I looked in the direction of the footsteps nervously, watching as Rapmon appeared around the corner of the table and started walking towards Jungkook. My breath and heart began to quicken again, my instincts going crazy, making me feel as if this were a real situation. What if I took it too far? I was taken out of my thoughts as the plate I was under was forcefully pushed away, exposing the tiny little mass, that is, me. In just a second, I was already standing up and sprinting away from my spot on the table and on my way to another hiding spot. I didn't even make it 6 small feet away before I could feel a strong tug to the collar of my shirt, and I felt myself be lifted up into the air. I let out a soft yelp as I was being picked up, and did my best to avoid looking down, knowing that it would trigger my fear of heights. The surface of the table began to go farther and farther away from me as I was pulled up into the air by the back of my shirt, going way higher than I'm comfortable with.
I soon stopped ascending in the air and I looked around me, noticing that I was being held up a bit higher than the other members' heads as they still sat at the table, watching me amusingly as the scene unfolded before them. I felt myself begin to move again, and watched as the person holding me started to turn me around to face them, and I was met with the unamused face of Namjoon, sitting half a normal foot in front of me. I started shifting a bit uncomfortably from the proximity of his face to me, and grabbed onto the fingers that still pinched the back of my shirt, attempting to push myself back away from his face. Rapmon suddenly let out a loud sigh through his nose, and I stopped struggling while dropping my hands to my sides, knowing that I was probably pushing my luck a bit.
I looked back at Rapmon and smiled sheepishly, trying to hide the fact that I was a tiny bit frightened by his actions. I shouldn't really be acting like this though, considering that I was the one who started this whole thing, bringing this whole predicament upon myself. "Y/n, why did you take some of my food?" He asked me with a semi-serious face. I looked away from his face and stared at his left shoulder that was a bit below me, shrugging my shoulders slightly to answer his question. "I got a bit hungry and I also thought it would be funny to mess with you, but the joke seems to have back-fired on me." I chuckled nervously while messing with the sleeves of my hoodie that I still had on since 2 days ago. I caught a glimpse of Kookie smiling smugly in the corner of my eye and I snapped my head over to look at him, giving him a glare. "Why are you smiling like that? You were supposed to keep me hidden." I grumbled, making sure he could hear me. "Hey it's not my fault you didn't realize a person 50 times your size was walking right in your direction." He defended, putting his hands up in surrender. I gave a breath of annoyance to Kookie, and slowly looked back at Rapmon, becoming surprised by the slight smirk he had. "W-What?" I asked him nervously, wondering why he would be looking at me like that. "Oh, just thinking of ways to get you back in the future." He said in a cheeky voice. I froze, then sighed heavily, knowing he meant that he would find a way to prank me somehow soon, and seeing that none of the other members are trying to interfere, I know that what he has planned won't be that bad.
Without thinking, I suddenly look down below me, and feel every muscle in my body tense heavily. There, right underneath my feet, is a drop down straight to my own death. I couldn't help the gasp that escaped my lips and felt as my heart rate increased rapidly, and I began to squirm around again, trying to reach for the fingers that hold me up from my demise. I struggled for a few seconds before grabbing hold of his thumb and index finger, holding on for dear life and trying to pull myself up a bit more. Through my panicked state, I could see Namjoon starting to become worried, creasing his brows together and frowning slightly. "Y/n, what's wrong?" He asked in a softer tone. I looked back at him and managed to swallow the small lump in my throat. "Um, c-could you s-set m-me on the ta-table please?" I managed to choke out but failed to stop my stuttering. He glanced down to where I had been staring at and looked back up at me, seeming to figure out what I was scared of. "Oh, yeah...sorry." He said lightly, slowly setting me back down onto the table. Despite the gentle descent, my stomach still felt like it was churning and my head hung slightly, being just a bit overwhelmed by the uncomfortable moment and felling all of the adrenaline completely leave my body.
Once my feet were placed back down onto the table, Namjoon slowly let go of the back of my shirt, but due to my slightly weak state and tense, shaking legs, I couldn't keep myself up, and stumbled forward, eventually falling onto the table, looking like a drunk person, with only my hands to prop me up. I let my arms fall limp under me and set myself into a lazy position, laying on my stomach with my arms crossed in front of me and my head resting on my forearms. I let out a deep and tired sigh and heavily pronounced "Goodnight" in a jokingly exasperated tone. I heard a few chuckles sound around me but I could hardly hear it as I began spacing out and going into my own little dream world. That was, of course, until I heard a little 'aww' from one of the members and felt as large fingers wrapped around me and slowly lifted me away from the surface of the table. I was too lazy to move or open my eyes, so I just let whoever had picked me up continue what he was doing. "Hyung, look what you did to her! Both you and Kookie need to learn how to handle her gently." I heard Taehyung exclaim and was soon met with the feeling of soft fabric and overwhelmingly comfortable warmth.
I finally opened my eyes and examined my surroundings, discovering that I was pressed up against Tae's chest as he looked down at me with a worried expression, but it soon changed to an adorable box smile as he saw me looking back up to him. I just smiled back tiredly and snuggled more into the warmth that he gave off. "Hi Taetae" I mumbled into his shirt as I grasped the soft fabric in weak fists. I heard him giggle and cuddle me closer to him "Hi y/n!" He beamed happily. "V, you need to be careful too, you're gonna cuddle her to death!" Jin said rhetorically. "But she's so cute, how can I not cuddle her. Just like I said earlier, she's like a little miniature teddy bear." He said while cupping me to his chest even more, eventually coming to the point where I was completely covered up from everyone else's view. I just laughed while hearing this, I could now definitely tell who the most cuddly person was in Bangtan, but I didn't mind cause I'm a pretty cuddly person myself, and Taehyung's body heat was very soothing.

Well that took forever. Srry to make y'all wait, I had a bit of a hiatus but I think it's getting better now. I also think I should start making shorter chapters so I'll be able to update more often. Oh and btw, THANK U GUYS SO MUCH FOR 2K READS AND 200 VOTES!!! I feel so accomplished! I've also been spending most of my hiatus reading all sorts of other shrinking stories and I've gotten a better idea of how I should write this so hopefully my writing will get better in the chapters to come.
