- Chapter 17 :

"Shopping time!" I raised my head out of my thoughts as Min So bust through the room, twirling around through the door. The boys seemed to greet her with warm smiles, which she joyfully returned. Jihee felt a tad jealous of Min So but she kept it away, knowing she should be showing gratitude to the girl.

"Jihee come on!" Min So happily remarked whilst reaching for my hand. I quickly evaded the physical contact and instead motioned for her to show me out, following her. I felt Yoongi's eyes on me before I ignored them and kept walking. Seeing Yoongi made me feel weird, very weird.

The boys ended up following Min So and I out as we stopped in front of two cars. I bit my lip, wondering how long it had been since I had been in public transport. Min So ended up dragging me to the latter car, stuffing me into the back seat as she told me to wait. Why was she enthusiastic?

The door opened and Namjoon took the drivers seat while Jin accompanied him in the passengers seat. They both sent me a small smile which I returned as I waited for them to start the car. Apparently though, more were to come. The door next to mine opened and Yoongi popped in, closing the door before sending me a meaningful look.

Shit shit shit shit why is he here.

I couldn't help but get a little nervous as the engine roared to life and Yoongi kept watching me like a hawk, a small smirk gracing his features. That left the maknae line, and Hoseok and Min So to be in the first car. Lord why was I next to Yoongi.

"So Jihee how do you like it here?" Jin casually asked, scrolling through his phone simultaneously. "I-It's nice." I replied and Namjoon smiled a little, his dimples visible to me in the back of the car.

"Is that all?" A dark voice questioned and I turned to find Yoongi cocking his head at me. I gulped as a random feeling erupted in my stomach. I think I'm getting sick, who knows anymore.

"Um yeah." I gulped as Yoongi smirked and sat back. "I'm still forcing you to teach me how to cook those recipes." Jin beamed and I nodded, smiling a tiny bit as she pumped his arm in the air. The boys were definitely beautiful when happy. I can almost see why Min So always worked so hard to keep them happy.

"We're almost there, so start wearing your masks and all." Namjoon soothingly said as the other boys nodded, grabbing various clothing items out of their bags. I only watched as Yoongi covered his face, and body with black, his eyes staying at mine the whole time.

Just how popular were these boys?

***

Yoongi quickly closed the car door and stretched a little as Namjoon appeared as well, nodding at him through his hooded head. If anything, the boys looked normal, so Yoongi hoped no obsessive fan would notice them. That could be the end for both Yoongi, the boys, and Jihee.

"Do you think she'll be fine in a crowd?" Yoongi whispered to Namjoon as they watched Jin help Jihee out of the car, the two making small talk. Namjoon's brie's furrowed before he spoke once again, "I was worried too, but if we stay close to her she should be fine. It might be good for her as well." He commented and the man nodded back as they began walking.

"Hyunggggg!" Taehyung threw himself onto Namjoon, the latter hugging him awkwardly, afraid he might hurt or break the alien. The rest of the boys simply merged and began chatting about who would go where as Yoongi's eyes remained on Jihee.

She was eyeing the engine building with wide eyes, her eyes rapidly moving from place to place as if she has only a limited time to see it all. However, the moment she began to see the flood of people and the noise of their mouths, she deflated almost, edging to the back of the exit.

"Hey, you're going to be fine." Yoongi was quick to jump in, calming her by rubbing her shoulder slowly. She didn't flinch and Yoongi knew he was becoming closer in his goal. If it were a few days ago, Jihee might've been flinching away from him. At least she was getting more comfortable around him.

Yoongi carefully lead her back to the group who were staring at her with concern. "Alright I'll take Jihee shopping then." Yoongi decided, sewing that he was the most comfortable with her. Taehyung and Min So stood off to a side as Namjoon and Jin agreed at each other, standing together. At that, the rest of the maknae line and Hoseok clumped together.

"Perfect." Jin breathed as he checked his phone. "Let's all meet here in about an hour or two. Or just text." He mustered and the humans nodded before separating into different directions. "Where are we going?" Jihee tentatively asked as Yoongi dragged her across the mall.

"H&M." He states and quickly stopped inside the store, eyeing the place. Satisfied, he pulled her to a specific part of the store and began organizing clothes into her hands. "I'm choosing your clothes. So hold them." He muttered as the girl watched in awe as the clothes kept piling and piling into her hands.

Yoongi quickly paid, ignoring Jihee's protests before pulling her in front of a woman's store. He then turned around, holding her bags and closed his eyes. "Go pick your undergarment and call me when your done so I can pay." He said as he waited for a reply. When he got none, he irritatingly looked at Jihee, to find her playing wit her hands.

"What." He asked dreadfully, suddenly realizing what she was about to say. "I-It's been a long time since I went shopping so could y-you h-help m-m-me.." She intensely stuttered, all the blood rushing to her face. Yoongi was cherry red too as he scoffed and slightly nodded.

"Where the he'll were you living before this?" He muttered before pulling her into the store, ignoring the way her face darkened at the mention of her past.

AYO NEW UPDATE! Hope you enjoy and bye! <3
