Family Jewels
CHAPTER ONE: You Trip, Could It Get Any Worse...Yes
It seemed like out of no where you trip on under staging, falling into Namjoon as he walked by after coming off the stage lift.
You both landed on the floor in a tangle of arms and legs. Dying of embarrassment you hurriedly try to get up and accidentally knee him in the groin.
You get to your feet "Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry."
Reflexively you put your hands out to comfort him when you suddenly realized where your hands were going. You snatch them back blushing deeply.
Laying on his side he draws his knees up to his chest grimacing in pain. He manages to wave a hand up at you.
"It's alright. I'll be fine. I just wanted to have kids some day."
The others help him to the prop couch to have a seat. Namjoon gently sits, wiping beads of sweat from his forehead.
You are so embarrassed you ran back to the changing area. You meet your best friend and co worker there.
She grabs hold of you seeing the shock on your face, "What's wrong, are you ok?"
You sob "I'll never be ok, not after what I've done."
She hugs you, "Why? What happened?"
You cry "I just kneed Namjoon in the ... you know..." as you make gestures to where your knee hit him.
She starts to snicker, "Really? What did he do to deserve that?"
you release a ragged breath "Ugh, it's not funny. I tripped on rigging under the stage and we fell together to the floor. When I went to get up I accidentally hit him with my knee . . ."
You look desperately at your friend Sammie too embarrassed to say where.
She laughs then mockingly in a dreamy voice says "Oh what a lucky knee." and she laughs even harder.
"I'll never be able to live this down. I can't face him. I'll have to quit. I couldn't stand the embarrassment."
Panicking you grab Sammie's shoulders "Oh my gosh, Sammie I even tried to reach for . . . to." you blush deeply and turn away covering your face.
Sammie is laughing so hard now she is on the floor holding her stomach.
At that moment Namjoon gingerly walks in followed by the others.
Jin says "Oh no, did she get you too Sammie?"
Your best friend sits up still laughing as Jin helps her to stand. "No, it's nothing like that." she says.
Her laughter ends when she sees you run out of the changing area.
She calls out to you, "Wait! Come back. You need to help get them ready for the next stage!!"
She starts to go after you when Namjoon grabs her arm.
"Just let her go. We'll be safer that way."
He is upset because it seems that you are always tripping into each other.
Sammie's frowns angrily at him, "How can you say that!? When YOU are known as the God of Destruction!"
She snatches her arm away and huffs loudly. Knowing she doesn't have time to go after you now, she sends you a quick text before going to Jin.
You are in the break room sitting on the floor leaning on the couch trying not to cry out of embarrassment. You look at your phone as it notifies you of an incoming text.
Sam I Am - You have got to come back, we need you!
GiGi - be right there, but please have someone else take care of Namjoon
Sam I Am - ok, hurry!
You run to the restroom to freshen you face and run back to the changing area. Just as you enter Woo hands you Namjoon's shirt and walks off. You think to yourself 'oh my gosh I have to get Namjoon ready?'
You glare over at Sammie and she shrugs her shoulders and mouth "sorry."
Your shoulders slump but you go towards him anyway, it's your job after all. Namjoon sees you coming closer and rolls his eyes and places his hands protectively in front of him.
You roll your eyes right back at him. "Ok, lets forget earlier. We both have things to do right now, have a seat."
He is taken back by your 'in command' attitude then grins when you are not looking. You help him get ready for the upcoming stage.
Jin leans close to Namjoon right before going up on the lift to the stage, "You like her don't you?"
Caught by surprise he says "Who?"
J Hope snickers "Gi. You like her."
Namjoon sighs and rolls his eyes "Oh my gud, no she is hazardous to my health!"
They both laugh at him as they take their positions on stage.
During the concert he kept thinking about you. How cute you looked when you blushed and how nice you felt in his arms when you fell tangled together on the floor.
Then he grimaces as he thinks of the knee.
He accidentally steps on Jin's foot. No one but him and Jin noticed.
Jin smiles, "Yup, I knew it, you like her." and he moves off to his next position in the choreography.
Namjoon thinks 'how the hell does he know? I only stepped on his foot. I've done that before but it never meant I was in love, damn, um that, I like someone.' He almost misses his next mark but gets there in time.
In the movement of the choreography Jin whispers to J Hope, "Our boy is in love, he is missing his steps."
They both smile and as they part J Hope nods and smiles. He then quickly gives Namjoon a "I saw that" look.
Namjoon thinks to himself 'I guess now there will be more practice with Hobi.'
CHAPTER TWO: I Can't Believe You Two, Really!?
In between the stages the boys are taken care of by other staff while you and Sammie are part of the wardrobe team assigned to the boys at concerts.
Their hair is sometimes quickly changed with adding a hat or bandana which you make sure each boy has their favorite available when they want it.
You and Sammie love your job as you get to travel the world with the sweetest group of young men. Working with all the special wardrobes and each members likes and dislikes can be challenging but you both love it.
You plan to move on to designing your own line of clothes in a few years and will be leaving. But for now you are perfectly happy where you are and who you are with.
Well, except for maybe Namjoon, seems like for the last year and a half you two have been having issues. . . disastrous, painful issues yet you can't understand why.
You end up working with Namjoon the rest of the concert. Things are going pretty well. It seems he put the accident from earlier from his mind and is dancing fine, which you are very thankful for.
One of the other staff came over with a portable fan to cool him off and Namjoon is drinking water as you help him put on an organza shirt.
Jimin walks by and smiles then touches the shirt "Oh this is a sexy shirt Hyung. You look good in it."
To your surprise he winks at you before going to talk to Jin. You just shake your head at Jimin smiling, he is so cute and adorable.
You are fastening the buckles, snaps and straps that go on over his top when your hand accidentally brushes against his nipple. You blush deeply and quickly keep buckling, hoping he didn't notice.
You let your hair partially cover your face hoping to block the blush.
You turn quickly while close to him to grab the next part of the outfit when your hair caught on one of the buckles.
"Ouch!" you tried to pull your hair free.
He was trying to get your hair untangled from the buckle and he pulled you closer to him. One of his bracelets got caught in your earring by doing so.
"Aish, I don't believe this!" You try to free your earring while he is working on freeing your hair.
"What is it with you?" he rudely says as he pulls your hair free.
"OUCH!" you see some of your hair left in the buckle.
"You pulled out my hair!" He rolls his eyes, "It's only a couple of strands."
They are being called on stage and you quickly take out your earring so you're no longer attached to him. He runs off to catch up with the others on the under stage rolling cart.
He gets your earring loose and being crouched low on the cart he can't get to his pockets so he attaches it back to his bracelet by locking the clasp around the chain.
He isn't aware that he is gently caressing the earring between his fingers when Hobi leans close "So what is it with you and Gi?"
Jin grins "Yeah, seems you two are always tangled up in each other." then he does his windshield wiper laugh as the cart starts moving.
Yoongi is looking strangely at Namjoon then he leans closer to take a better look at his face. "You're blushing."
He sits back grinning as he looks at the others, "Namjoon is blushing." The three of them grin at each other.
Namjoon was blushing because he was thinking about the feeling that traveled his body when your fingers slightly touched a particular area of his chest.
Without even thinking about it his fingers are once again caressing the earring dandling on his bracelet.
While they are doing the next stage you and the others are straightening up the area getting ready for the next quick change, Sammie come to help you, but actually to chat. "I saw what happened. I can't believe you two."
You take a deep breath and let it out "I don't know what is going on. It is like fate is trying to force us together."
She smiles at you "Do you like it?"
You grin back "I, do actually. You know I like him, I think that is why I get so nervous around him and clumsy."
She grins and squeezes your hand "I think he likes you too."
Surprised you ask "How do you know?" still grinning as she sets up the outfit for the next stage at her station she says " Because he is more clumsy when ever you are around. I think he is smitten with you."
You laugh "That or he is planning my demise."
You both giggle and get back to setting things up.
CHAPTER THREE: She's Hazardous To My Health!
After the concert had ended that night you were looking for your earring not knowing what Namjoon did with it. You sigh as you head back to Sammie.
"Did you find it?"
You shake your head then look at your best friend smiling, "I'm hungry. How about you Sammie?"
She knows a change of subject when she sees one "Oh yeah lets eat, I'm starving." she rubs her tummy as it growls and you both laugh.
"Oh, I almost forgot to tell you. They asked us out to dinner tonight."
Confused you ask her "Who asked us out?"
She playfully whacks your shoulder, "The boys of course. They said they want to take us out to thank us, we're all going."
You smile "Wow that is nice, I'm hungry."
Sammie grabs her coat and yours "Tomorrow they are taking the dancers out for dinner."
You smile at your best friend "They are such wonderful guys, always considerate of others. I'm going to miss all of them when I go."
Sammie leans on your shoulder and whispers in your ear so the others still hanging around don't hear. "Just don't go near Namjoon while we are out." and she playfully pushes you.
You push her back laughing and head out to change before going to the restaurant.
The boys are getting ready to head out for the restaurant when Jimin reaches out to hold Namjoon's bracelet, "Oh, a new charm?"
Everyone turns to look and Jin, J Hope and Suga start to laugh. Jimin looks at them "What's so funny?"
Jin says "Long story, get him to tell you later."
Jungkook looks closer at the charm, tapping it with his finger making it swing, "I think I've seen this before."
Jin says "That's because you have."
Jungkook lets go of the bracelet and charm "Whose is it?"
No one speaks and Namjoon is glad for it. Though Jin, J Hope and Suga grinning share knowing looks.
When you and Sammie arrive at the restaurant she rushes to the table and takes a seat leaving the only seat open being between Jimin and Namjoon.
You glare at her letting her know you will get her back later. She grins at you and you grimace back as you try to sit.
Jimin and Namjoon stand as you go to take the seat between them. Jimin is blocking you from sitting in the chair from his side so you had to go beside Namjoon to sit.
You roll your eyes at Jimin and he just smiles back.
You go to move and Namjoon does too and he accidentally steps on your foot.
"Aish!" You jump on the good foot and when you do Namjoon tries to hold you so you wouldn't lose your balance.
You both tottered and ended up sitting in the same chair, him turning where you ended up on his lap.
The whole table goes silent. Everyone waiting for the arguing to start. You look at Namjoon and he is looking at you. Your gazes lock. You see the corner of his mouth start to tick up and suddenly you both burst out laughing.
The tension around the table is quickly gone and everyone else joins in the laughter.
J Hope laughs, "It's destiny."
You start to get up and Namjoon holds you there for a few second too long and the others notice. Blushing you pull out of his hold and sit in the chair next to him.
Keeping your head down to hide your blush Jimin lightly tapped you on the shoulder and you look at him.
He leans close and whispers "Noona, he likes you."
You blush "Jimin how do you know."
He smiles his beautiful angelic smile at you "He told me."
Surprised at what he said you ask "What, really?"
Jimin nods right before he turns to Taehyung who wanted to tell him something.
You sit there trying not to look at Namjoon but you steal glances his way. He reaches for his glass and as he lifts it to drink you notice his bracelet and there is your missing earring.
You suddenly look back at Jimin and he just smiles and nods his head.
You look across the table at Sammie and in silent girl language you let her know it was time for girl talk in the ladies room. You both excuse yourselves from the table. Before the door even closes she is asking "What is it?" she grabs your shoulders smiling "What? Tell me."
You don't know whether to laugh or be embarrassed "He is wearing my earring as a charm on his bracelet."
She grins, "Oh wow!"
You step over to the mirror "And another thing, Jimin just told me that Namjoon told him, that he likes me."
You start to blush when Sammie laughs, "Oh this is just too much, he likes you!" she happily hugs you.
"Sammie what do I do?"
CHAPTER FOUR: Are You Sure It's Safe For Us To Date?
Sammie pauses looking at the ceiling in thought, "Well, It seems like you two are meant for each other. Fate or destiny does seem to keep throwing you two together."
She giggles at you watching you blush. "Like tonight you ended up on his lap."
She is laughing now and you give her a playful push. "Lets get back to the table you're no help."
You join her in laughing on the way back to the table.
After dinner everyone is leaving and you feel a hand on your shoulder you look and it's Namjoon. "Can I talk to you for a minute?"
Sammie smiles at you, "Meet you at the car." she walks away and looks back at you so you mouth the word 'traitor' to her and she just laughs.
You look up at Namjoon, "Ok, yeah I have a minute or two."
He smiles and as Jin and J Hope pat his back as a form of encouragement, Suga walks pass and just rolls his eyes.
"Don't mind them." Namjoon says when he notices you watching them.
"What was it you wanted to talk to me about?"
He motions for you to go with him as he moves a little off from the others. You cross your arms waiting for him to talk. Suddenly two teenagers go running by and tripped into Namjoon knocking him into you. "Sorry!" they call back as they keep running.
You had your breath knocked from you and you gasp pressed against the wall with Namjoon bracing himself with his arms on each side of you to keep from crushing you.
You both are blushing looking into each others eyes. Slowly his hands lower to your shoulders and stay there.
Jimin started rushing towards you to check on you when Jin grabbed him by the arm and pulled him back with them. He started to protest but J Hope whispered to him and he looked back at you both and smiled then walked on with them.
You start to speak, "Namjoon . . ."
He interrupts you, "I wanted to apologize for being such a jerk. It's just that, well . . ." he looks around and sees that you are both alone now, "I, I like you and I didn't know what to do about it."
You look confused, "What do you mean 'do about it'? What is there to do?"
He starts to smile and his dimple shows and you can't help but smile back. He says "Go out on a date with me?"
You stand away from the wall but it puts you closer to him.
For a minute it seems he wasn't going to let you move. "Namjoon . . ." he interrupts again.
"Please? I would like to go out with you, just you and me. It seems the universe is trying to tell us something."
You think about it then look up at him, "I think you're right."
His face seems to brighten, "So you think we should date?"
He smiles and you say "I didn't say that."
His smile falls, wanting that cute smile back you tell him "I meant . . ." you lower your head then peek up at him through your lashes.
"I meant maybe we should listen to the universe."
Trying to judge his reaction you shyly look back up at him and he is smiling his dimpled smile broadly and you smile happily back, his eyes light with happiness.
"But, Namjoon are you sure it's safe for us to date?" you are trying not to laugh when he suddenly bursts into laughter.
"I think we would be safer if we stop letting fate throw us together."
You consider this then say "I agree, so we should come together on our own." and you step closer to him placing your hands on his shoulders.
You say "You're wearing my earring as a charm on your bracelet?"
He blushes "Yes. Do you mind if I keep it?"
You smile, "It's yours."
He suddenly falls into you pushing your back against the wall. You gasp "Oh!"
He says "Oh sorry lost my balance."
You softly laugh, "I don't think the universe is done with us yet."
He looks intently into your eyes, you put your arms around his neck, "Just kiss me already."
And he does.
