Seungmin was in the car, driving along with Jeongin.

Today, Seungmin was visiting his parents because it's been a while since he's seen them.

He decided to bring Jeongin along because the maknae quite literally begged him to go nonstop for three days prior.

"Is Minyong going to be there?", Jeongin asked.

"She has work, but she's coming by later.", Seungmin responded.

Seungmin hadn't seen his sister either in a while. But he was happy that he would get to see his family today.

The pair rounded the corner, coming into the street where Seungmin's parents lived.

It was a beautiful neighborhood, houses a good distance apart so everyone had a piece of privacy, and yard space for pets.

They pulled up to the house, and Seungmin saw his parents car in the driveway.

"Let's go Jeongin, I'm sure they'll be happy to see us."

The two got out of the car.

"Hey, do you smell that?", Jeongin said.

"I do smell something. Smells like gasoline."

"That's we-"

Before Jeongin could finish his sentence, they heard a loud cracking noise, followed by a boom that sent them both flying backwards.

A wave of heat pressed against them, and shrapnel flew across the road and into other yards.

Seungmin stood up.

In front of him, his parents house sat destroyed, covered in flames and nearly reduced to rubble by the explosion.

"Mom! Dad!", he screamed, running towards the house.

He was stopped by Jeongin, who pulled him back.

"Seungmin, that house is completely burning, you can't go in."

"Let me go! My parents are in there!"

Jeongin still held him back as he tried to get away.

"Seungmin, I'm really sorry, but there is no way they-"

"Shut up! Don't say that! I have to go get them! Jeongin please let me go!"

"You can't. Seungmin you would die if you went in there!"

Seungmin cried loudly, dropping to his knees.

"Mama! Dad!", he screamed.

Jeongin got down as well, holding him.

Neither of them were bothered by their injuries from being thrown back by the blast, all they could think about was Mr. and Mrs. Kim.

Seungmin looked at the house, watching as the flames reached into the air, burning down everything he loved.

"They...they have to be okay, right? I mean...maybe they weren't home.", Seungmin said, looking at Jeongin.

Jeongin's eyes were focused on something on the ground.

Seungmin looked over, seeing what looked like a pile of burnt clothes near them.

He let go of Jeongin, getting up and walking over to it.

He stood there, seeing the destroyed plaid shirt covering something burnt beyond recognition.

"Seungmin?", Jeongin asked.

"That shirt...Jeongin, that's his favorite shirt...", Seungmin cried, "He always wears it..."

Jeongin got up, going to Seungmin who now uncontrollably cried onto his shoulder.

"Why?! Why?! It's not fair! I just wanted to see them!"

Jeongin hugged him.

"It's okay. It'll be okay..."

They heard the sounds of a firetruck nearing them.

"They were supposed to be okay, I was supposed to hug my mom, and...", Seungmin said, just crying more.

"I'm so sorry Seungmin...I really am."

---------------------------------------------------------------

Changbin was in the kitchen, testing out a recipe he got from Google on making tacos.

Chan was supervising, and Felix was there for moral support.

In the living room, Minho, Jisung, and Jeongin were watching National Geographic's special on the Amazon.

Hyunjin was in his bedroom.

Seungmin was walking downstairs.

"Hey Seungmin, how are you?", Jisung asked.

"Terrible. Thanks for asking."

Seungmin went to the kitchen.

Today made exactly two weeks since the death of Seungmin's parents in the tragic gas explosion.

Chan greeted him in the kitchen.

"Hi Seungmin, are you hungry? Changbin is making tacos."

"I am hungry actually. Now hoping Changbin doesn't poison us all."

The boys laughed.

"I'll burn your tortilla on purpose.", Changbin said.

Seungmin went to retrieve his water from the fridge.

Changbin turned on the stove.

"Am I doing this right? Where is the fire?"

"It should be on. Did you break it Changbin?", Felix asked.

"No I just turned it on!"

Seungmin looked at the stove, a certain smell emanating from it.

"No...no...no...", he said, backing up.

"Seungmin what's wrong?", Chan asked.

Seungmin started breathing heavily before running to Chan.

"We have to go! We have to go! Please, it's going to happen again!"

"What is?"

At the sound of the screaming, the other members came running in.

"Please we have to get out of here!", Seungmin yelled.

Changbin started to smell it too.

"Oh shit...I turned on the gas."

In a split second, all of the members ran from the kitchen, just as Chan saw the stove burners flames begin to fly up.

"Get out! Now!", they yelled.

All of the members ran outside, but Chan tripped at the entrance, falling in the doorway.

Seungmin ran back to get him, but just as he reached to help Chan up, they heard a sound.

Suddenly, a boom echoed from the kitchen sending shrapnel and framed into the living room and entrance way, knocking Seungmin back, and pushing Chan into the grass outside.

The other members went to them, quickly grabbing them and pulling them away from the home as the first floor kitchen and living room became covered with fire.

"Ah...shit that hurts.", Chan said, feeling his back where his clothes had been singed from the blast.

Seungmin went over to him.

"Hyung! Are you okay?"

"I'm alright Seungmin. I'm okay."

Seungmin hugged him.

"Don't leave me hyung! I need you! Not be hurt. Stay with Seungie. Please?"

Chan hugged him back.

"I'm okay Seungmin. I'm not going anywhere."

"Good. Because I love you! And you stay here forever with me."

Felix looked at Changbin.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

"Our house is on fire because you wanted to make tacos."

"At least I tried."

"You could have even asked Hyunjin for help. He knows how to make tacos. Right Hyunjin?"

Felix looked over.

He didn't see Hyunjin.

He looked around.

"Hyunjin?"

All of the members looked around.

Hyunjin wasn't outside.

Which only meant one thing.

"Shit! Hyunjin was in his bedroom!", Changbin yelled.

Hearing this, Seungmin jumped up, running inside.

"Seungmin wait! The fire!", Jeongin yelled, following him.

Seungmin ran inside, navigating his way over the streaks of fire on the ground.

He ran to the steps, going up.

Hyunjin was at the top of the stairs.

"What are you guys doing?! Why aren't you outside?", he asked.

"I had save you!", Seungmin told him, "Follow me!"

Jeongin was right behind them.

The flames creeper over to the stairwell.

There was no way back down.

"How do we get down?", Hyunjin asked.

Jeongin had an idea.

"Your room. Window. We have to get onto the roof."

The boys quickly agreed as the flames climbed the steps behind them.

They ran into Hyunjin's room.

Hyunjin flipped the latches on the window, lifting it up.

"There they are!", Felix yelled.

The other members saw them from outside.

"Okay, you two first.", Hyunjin said.

"No, you go!", Seungmin said.

"Seungie, baby, please go."

"But-"

"We don't have time to argue! Go!"

Seungmin went to the window, seeing the roof extension below him.

He started to climb out, with Jeongin behind him.

The fire got closer and closer, and it became hotter and hotter.

Seungmin got out onto the roof.

Right as he did, a creaking sound was heard.

Hyunjin turned around to see flames at his door.

There was a rush of air from the window, fuelling the fire, the force of which caused Seungmin to fall, landing on the roof extension below. Quickly, Jeongin and Hyunjin climbed out, also falling down to the roof extension.

It cracked under their combined weight, falling through to the ground below.

"Boys!", Chan yelled, getting up as quickly as he could.

Seungmin sat up, blinking away the shock from falling.

Jeongin helped Hyunjin up as well.

"Okay, who tried to burn down the house?", Hyunjin asked.

Everyone looked at Changbin.

"So I guess I'm not in charge of cooking anymore?"

"I'll kill you. Right now.", Hyunjin said.

"And I would let you, hottie."

"Jeongin can you throw me back inside of the house please?"
