"Thank you." Gauravi said nodding at Ha Joon who had dropped her off at the dorm. Ha Joon nodded back.

"Should I come alon-"

"Joon it's fine. First, do the thing I told about." Gauravi sighed looking at him. He had been persisting her the whole ride here to let him come along or she should think about this calmly before doing anything.

"But ma'am you should really-"

"Joon." She called making him stop. He gulped looking away before nodding his head.

"Okay, I'll leave." With that he left without any more words. Gauravi sighed looking at the disappearing car. She was damn tired. It's like he got trained under Ben. Sighing again she turned around and started walking the way towards their dorm. 'It is true that I should calmly take the decision but my gut's telling to go with it. They deserve to know after what has happened and it's not like they don't have clue about it. From their reaction that day, they didn't look that shocked at least not the older ones. Maybe they will be fine. But what if what chief said is true, will they able to handle it? Or am I just going to ruin everything?' She thought numerous questions running inside her head. Either way it was too late for them.

She was standing outside their dorm, her hand on the button about to press. "They deserve to know." She muttered to herself pressing the button. Even if she doesn't tell them, they will question her.

"Who is it?" A voice asked. Gauravi leaned down towards the camera.

"It's me. Gauravi." She replied looking at the camera. The door clicked opened. Hoseok stood their greeting her. She nervously smiled. "Can I come in?" She smiled asking.

"Oh yeah yeah." Hoseok's eyes widen as he stepped aside nodding his head.

"Thank you." Gauravi bowed walking in. Hoseok nodded his head quickly closing the door behind him and pulling out house slippers for her. She thanked him again putting on the slippers. "Is everyone home?" She asked following Hoseok as he lead her inside.

"Yes, we are to stay in for three days." Hoseok answered nodding his head. "Sit please." He said pointing towards the couch making Gauravi nod her head. "I will call others. Jin hyung, Jungkookie, jimin-ah, Namjoon-ah, Taehyungie, Yoonki! Everyone one come down!" He shouted making Gauravi flinched at his loud voice.

"Wae? Wae? Why are you shouting?" Jin asked walking out from behind them with a pink apron on. "Oh you? You are back?" Jin asked upon seeing Gauravi sitting on couch. Gauravi smiled and nodded her head. Jin removed his apron and rounded the couch to sit beside her. "Here." He said handing her his phone. Gauravi looked up in question. "You both went off and you didn't even come with us. So I couldn't get Ben's number." He explained making her tilt her head to side with a 'really?' look on her face. "Wae?" He asked looking at her expression.

"Hyung, hyung, english." Hoseok whispered from behind.

"Aah! Ben's number. I want Ben's number." He corrected himself.

"Yeah I understand but why wou-" Gauravi was cut off with a loud shriek and arms around her neck.

"NOONA!" Jungkook exclaimed jumping on her with his arms curled around her neck. "I thought you left us!" He muttered snuggling. Gauravi patted his back and coughed.

"H-honey, your g-guns are suffocating me." She coughed.

"Yah! Let go of her you brat." Jin shouted smacking Jungkook. "Let her go! Are trying to murder her?!" He smacked again when Jungkook didn't budge. Finally Jungkook let her go stepping back.

"Noona, why didn't you come with us? Did something happen- did you lose yo-" He gasped covering his mouth. His doe eyes wide realizing his mistake. Gauravi chuckled at his expression, ruffling his hair.

"No, everything is fine. I had some things to do so I couldn't come back with you guys." She explained smiling back to him.

"Noona!"

"Superwoman!" Gauravi looked up to see Jimin and Taehyung rushing towards them with Namjoon and Yoongi following behind.

"Hello boys." She smiled standing up. "Mr. Jimin how are you fe-omffh." Jimin jumped hugged her tight. "Uh-" Gauravi looked around not knowing what to do so she patted his head.

"He seemed to missed to you the most." Namjoon said smiling at her. "Rather the maknae's missed you the most."

"Did they?" Gauravi smiled looking at Jimin who still had tight grip around her. "What about you guys? Didn't you guys miss me too?" She asked teasingly looking at the older boys.

"Uhh..."

"I'm just messing with you." Gauravi laughed. "Mr. Jimin you can let go now. Jungkook's been glaring at me." She whispered in his ear too which he turned around to see Jungkook and that bunny boy was definitely glaring at them. Jimin stuck his tongue out at him and let go of Gauravi. "Umm here. I don't know if you like or not...." She said handing a cookie box to Jimin.

"Gamsahabnida! (Thank you!)" Jimin said taking the cookie box.

"Noona what about us?" Taehyung asked crossing his arm against his chest and pouting.

"Uh well I didn-"

"Yah you brat! Shut it." Jin scolded making him pouted more. "You sit down." Jin commanded pushing her down on couch. "What do you want to drink?"

"Um coffee maybe?" She replied. Jin nodded and left, probably to kitchen. "Uhh.." She looked at the boys who were all standing. "Why are you guys standing like this?" Hearing that all of them settle down. Amongst that her eyes met Yoongi's who was staring at her with a look that she couldn't decipher. She averted her eyes and cleared her throat. "So..is everything okay? I mean of course it must be not you know what I mean-"

"Well to say the truth, everyone's been worried after what had happened but other than that we are okay. Jimin's been having problems sleeping. Nightmares about what had happened." Gauravi snapped her head towards him feeling sorry. Her eyes soften looking at the poor boy. Maybe I shouldn't tell them about it, it's for better. "But, we know that you have answers that would relieve our worries." Gauravi stiffen hearing that. It was bound to happen, she sighed thinking. A mug placed in front of her. "Thank you." She smiled looking up at the Jin who smiled in return.

Picking up the mug she took a sip of coffee and let out a sigh of content. It was little two sweet for her taste but anything better than bitterness. She looked up to see all boys staring at her. Sighing again she placed the mug back on table. It's like she's been doing that all this days, sighing. "I know you want answers. That's the reason why I came here." She looked up at them. "Before that I want you guys to know the truth. I am not your publicist, it's just a facade. I was hired by your company as an undercover agent. In simple words, a bodyguard." She looked at Namjoon who calmly listened to her. Namjoon nodded getting her message and translated to boys. The boys looked at her in shocked.

"Noona.." Both Jungkook and Jimin looked at her in worry.

"It's fine you both." She smiled. "My identity was supposed to be a secret but the way things turned out. I had no choice but the reveal it. So, in short I worked with security making sure that you boys were secure. But it seems I failed not once but thrice." She muttered looking down at her hands.

"Noona no.." Jimin said. "If it weren't for you, I don't know what would have happened the both times."

"Both times?" Namjoon questioned looking at Jimin.

"Umm ne. When were at hotel, and angry at noona, I tried avoiding her and accidentally got off on wrong floor. There a sasaeng, no, a girl tried to attack me. She threw a knife at me lucky noona pulled me out of the way. But she got hurt. The wound on her arm." Jimin explained pointing at the Gauravi's arm. Yoongi snapped his head towards her. He remembered slamming her against the wall, gripping her arms. It must be it was because of him that her wounds ripped open.

"Yeah, because of that, I had to reveal my true identity to Mr. Jimin. And Jungkook, well he heard me talking about it when he was sneaking around with snack." Gauravi said narrowing her eyes at Jungkook who sheepishly grinned. "He was the first one to find out about it. I always thought he was cute innocent bunny but I was wrong. He turned out to be a naughty one." She teased.

"Innocent! As if!" Jin snorted from beside her.

"Yeah, he blackmailed me! What is in it for me? He said when I asked him to keep my secret. I couldn't even believe my ears when he uttered those words." Gauravi chuckled thinking back to that time.

"His innocent looks are just facade. He's a little devil." Namjoon said laughing.

"Hyung!" Jungkook exclaimed pouting making everyone laugh.

"Anyways, I had no choice but to accept his deal. I want know all about your missions and cool stuff! So cute." She laughed again shaking her head. "So on my bad day, Jungkook kept persisting me which made me explode and Mr. Min saw that misunderstanding the situation. Either way it was my fault which led to that accident."

"No, it wasn't. That brat is unbearable." It was Jin who scolded.

"So, Jungkook and Jimin knew." Hoseok asked. Gaurabi nodded her head. "So that is why he was running around, noona this and noona that and then Jimin started doing that too."

"Sorry, it was my fault too. I played along saying things like their mission and all." Gauravi muttered scratching her back of neck.

"They were being childish so you didn't have any choice but to play along with them." Namjoon glared looking the two maknae who looked away avoiding his glare. "You just made her job difficult, you know that?" He said with stern voice.

"It's fine, Mr. Namjoon. To be honest keeping up the facade was more difficult." Gauravi said trying to save the babies from scoldings. "I guess it will be easier for me to work around you guys now that cat's outta bag." She grinned. "But, I wished you guys keep this to you only. Other staff members still don't know the truth. I told you guys because you deserve to know." They nodded promising to keep the secret. "The situation is changed now. You guys are global stars, bad things are bound to come with success and fame. So, I want you boys to be cautious. We will do anything to keep you boys safe but I want you be cautious, aware off your surrounding and people every time. Do no trust anyone okay, not even the ones you know." She warned looking at the each of the boys. They looked stiffed, worried after hearing that. Not good, she thought.

"It's nothing to worry much. I will be always around you boys." She reassured smiling at them.

"I trust you since you saved Jimin twice." Jin said. Gauravi smiled. "But you still haven't given me Ben's number. " He narrowed his eyes at him.

"Yeah I know. But why would you need his number?" Gauravi sighed not wanting to given him the number. God knows what would happen if they teamed up.

"Because he is my frien- Wait a second you understood what I said just now?" He asked realizing it.

"Umm yes?" Gauravi replied furrowing her eyebrows.

"So you understand what I am saying right now?!" He exclaimed.

"If you are asking if I understand Korean or not? Then yes, I do understand. In fact I understand it very well. I just don't speak it because I sound funny with my accent and I think it's disrespectful." Gauravi explained.

"I can't believe you all are realizing it now after having the whole conversation in Hangul with her." Yoongi said shaking his head at their dumbness.

"You knew!" Both Jin and Hoseok exclaimed at the same time.

"Of course. I knew it from the start." He shrugged rolling his eyes.

"And yet you still called her those names knowing that she understood you!!!" Jin exclaimed standing up. Yoongi just shrugged again. "YOU RASCAL!"
