19: Zoey

My heart physically stopped when Jin passed me in the doorway. He's much taller than Jimi and Yoongi. I made my way to J-hope's side. "You need any help with that?" I asked as I pointed towards the dishes in the sink. He inhales sharply. I gave a step backwards and apologized: "I'm sorry. I'm making you uncomfortable, aren't I?" Eventhough I apologized, I still ended it on a question mark. He turned around stunned. "Why are you apologizing?" He asked me confused. A light breeze tugged at my hair, acknowledging me that that we weren't alone and to confirm my suspicions; a voice spoke up behind me. "It's not your fault that we're all drawn to you," he stated. I sprinted around much too quickly, losing my balance for a split second. I stumbled backwards directly into J-hope's arms. My breath hitched at the sudden embrace. I looked up into his bewildered eyes. "Are you alright?" He asked me his voice filled with genuine concern. Internally I knew that it's another one halfway done, but I can't help as to feel like a ticking time bomb. We're still lost in each other's eyes. J-hope's absolutely perfect. "Come on guys, break up this touchy moment," Jin said as he pulled us apart. I looked down at his hands. A pair of oven mittens covered his skin. I smiled innocently up at Jin. He did that for me. How sweet? "I will help you when the time is right, I promise," he informed me with a wink. He turned his attention to Hoseok and concluded: "I'll finish up, Hobi. It's best if you spend as much quality time together, before Jimin gets home." He nodded in agreement. Wrapped his hand around mine and dragged me along. I looked from over my shoulder directly into Jin's eyes. Faintly he smiled back at me. Hoseok and I made our way towards the living room. "Sit down. Do you play?" He asked as he motioned to a playstation. I smiled, nodding. He picked up the remotes and gave me one, as he sat down beside me on the couch. We played 'Mario Kart'. For the first few rounds Hobi were crowned victorious. I was still heating up to the game. In the last match, however, I smoked him. Enthusiastically I bobbed around like a little animated doll. He looked at me awe stricken. I smiled shyly at his reaction as I sat back down, almost completely in his lap. "S- sorry!" I stuttered as realization struck me. He folded a hand softly around my waist and pulled me into his lap. I giggled slightly at the sudden movement. "How come you can't see how absolutely studding you are?" He questioned to my dismay. How do I even answer that? Our eyes locked again and it's like gravity took complete control. Pulling us closer together. Before I could fit the puzzle into place, his lips brushed against mine. That was as far the quickest lip sealing I had since I've arrived yesterday.

Our kiss grew quickly intense and breathless. A throat clearing startled us. "Guess that makes it three down and four more to go," Jin said to my disbelief. He knew? "I'm sorry Hobi, but tomorrow you will have to join them on the mission. Somebody else would have to stay home with me," the older one apologized. The glare that I'm all too familiar with spread across his face. I pecked his lips and instantly his facial features softened. "Fine," he said after a moment. "Jimin shouldn't know about this, okay?" He nodded in reply and kissed me softly. Jin informed us to finish up, and that the others would be returning any minute now. The day is already over, I noticed. I placed one last kiss upon Hobi's lips and excused myself from the room. I went to the bathroom opened the faucets and after a few moments found myself relaxing underneath the hot water. Three down. I can do this! Jin's helping me after all.
