On the ride over, you and Ki talked about your childhoods. You find out he is just five years older than you. He doesn't have any siblings, and his parents are deceased.

 What he failed to mention was that he no longer had a sibling, as she died in his arms. He keeps that memory blocked. It hurts too much to recall. He loved his little sister so much. He misses her giggles and joking, teasing ways and how she would pounce on his bed to wake him up to watch cartoons with her on the weekends. They were kindred spirits, and he missed her.

At one point, while talking about some of the silly antics you got up to with your brothers, Ki made a joke, and you giggled. Suddenly, you notice the carefree smile on his face drops away. You don't get to question him as you arrive at the restaurant.

You and Yoongi are shown to the seats beside Jimin by the maître d'. Jimin and Yoongi both take hold of the back of the chair to pull it out for you. Jimin sees the look in Yoongi's eyes and raises his hands in mock surrender. You didn't see what was happening behind you, nor did Em, who was happily occupied speaking with Jungkook, seated on her left.

Ki didn't miss the interaction between Jimin and Yoongi over the chair. He smiled, thinking, 'Better stake your claim now, Yoongi, or Jimin will run away with her.'

This has Ki lost in his thoughts as memories of his sister return. Lanne's calling shotgun reminded him so much of his sister, and the sound of her laughter as she teased him brought back the fondness of his sister's laugh. He finds he has to sip water to help swallow the lump in his throat. He is beginning to realize that Lanne's mannerisms and laughter are painfully too close to his sisters. With his eyes slightly blurred with forming tears, he looks away and laughs at a new dad joke Jin tells.

Noticing Ki's eyes tear up, and his sudden glance away makes you wonder what is wrong. Why was he looking at you like that?

You sense a shift in the atmosphere surrounded by Jimin and Yoongi, and seeing the change come over Ki, you wonder what is happening.

You look around the table, and everyone is laughing and chatting, but Yoongi sits silently beside you, his fingers tapping a quiet rhythm on the table by his plate. 

You are about to speak to Yoongi when Jimin taps your shoulder. Making eye contact, he smiles sensually and rests his chin on his hand, gazing into your eyes. "Miss Joy, such a beautiful name." When he says the word joy, his voice changes seductively.

"Thank you. Joy is my family's surname, dating back to the medieval period in Ireland, and we're proud of our history." Being nervous causes you to ramble sometimes.

"So you're not an American?" Yoongi asks, overhearing your conversation. He draws your attention away from Jimin.

Jimin glares at him but says nothing.

"My ancestors immigrated to the United States back in the 1850s. So yes, I am an American but with strong Irish roots," you proudly tell him.

Jimin lays his hand on yours, drawing your attention away from Yoongi. "Is that where you get your gorgeous red hair and green eyes?" The look in his eyes makes you blush.

Suddenly, Yoongi is tapping a rhythm on the table again, only this time louder, and he says, "Lanne," he shoots a glance of possessiveness at Jimin as he uses your first name.

 Repeating your name to irritate Jimin, he says, "Lanne, I was wondering if you would like to go out for dinner tomorrow night?"

Before you can answer Yoongi, Jimin says, "That's a great idea. I would love to have you, uh, take you out for dinner tomorrow night." He looks at you with dreamy eyes and soft, kissable lips, causing you to blush.

"Wait! What!?" snaps Yoongi, "I didn't ask you, dongsaeng. I asked Lanne." he turns his cute, gummy smile on you.

"Dinner tomorrow night, Lanne?" He gives Jimin the side eye and then turns his attention back to you. "Just you and me?"

You hear Jimin grumbling beside you but can't understand what he says. You can't believe this is happening. It's like you're the rope between the two in the game of tug-of-war.

Begging in your thoughts, you plead, 'EM, SAVE ME!' Hoping she will look this way and notice the plea for help in your eyes.

Em looks over at you as if she could read your thoughts and stands. "Excuse us, gentlemen," she says, motioning you to follow her.

"Excuse me, we'll be right back," you say as Em takes you by the arm and heads toward the ladies' room.

Once the door closes, Em turns to you, "What the hell was going on? I thought they were going to tear you in two. I was teasing you when I said Jimin looked at you like he could eat you up, but I think he wants you." She mischievously grins, "Lucky you!" 

"Uh, Em . . . I felt like they were playing a game of tug-of-war with me. My stomach is so tied up in knots I know I won't be able to eat when our food arrives."

Em quickly hugs you. "La, when we return to the table, we can switch places if you want to."

You didn't want to take Em away from Namjoon, and Jungkook seemed to have googly eyes for her.

"No, it's ok. He asked me out to dinner tomorrow."

Em's eyes widen in delight, "Jimin asked you out to dinner?!"

You laugh and tell her, "No, Yoongi did. Well, technically, they both did, but Yoongi asked first, which upset Jimin. The looks going back and forth between them were insane."

"So, are you going out tomorrow with Yoongi?"

"I want to, but I'm not sure if I should."

She grabs you by the shoulders. "You're not sure if you should!?" she can't believe this, you must be sick.

She places her hand on your forehead. "There's no fever, so you must be crazy." You both burst out laughing.

"I guess I'd be crazy not to," you tell her. She adamantly nods.
