32: Zoey

I shivered at Tae's gentle touch. Hobi is burning holes into my skin, while Jk's fingers is snaked around my hand. Through the corner of my eye, I saw how Jin and Monie came closer into view. Jimi inched closer with Suga on his heals. Quickly, Jungkook let go of my hand. Poor guy, he must feel nervous with Jimi around. "How about a game of Volleyball?" I asked, trying to break the ice. Enthusiastically they all agreed. How do we decide on teams? I'm sure that they would all like to be on the same team as I. An idea struck me. Knowing how Jimi assured me that today was my day. I'm going to try my luck, I mean he can't say no. "Now for teams, what to do?" Monie vocalize my thoughts. "I have an idea," I said matter of factly. Seven brothers turned their attention to me. "Is there something that we can use as a blindfold?" I questioned thoughtfully. They looked at me curiously. Hobi held up my sarong. I giggled softly, how come I haven't thought about that. "Jimi will have to turn me around three times, blindfolded and then I will have to catch my team," I continued. Jimi shook his head in disapproval and the other deities sighed in frustration. I waved my finger at him, "You promised." He looked down at his feet defeated. "Hand me that damn sarong," he told Hobi who immediately obeyed. Jimi bind it around my head. Blocking everything out. He counted out loud as he spun me around. Dizzily I grabbed for the air. Tae laughed at my actions, but I'm not quite sure where the sound is coming from. I stumbled around blindly. The one who caught me (or were I the one who caught him), either way I found my first team mate. Two more to go. Thankfully their not making it easy for me. After what felt like an hour, more or less, we were a four member team. I took off my blindfold and were completely surprised by the team that I've blindly collected. To one side stand three of the seven brothers: Jk, Jinnie and Monie. I had not expected this outcome at all.

I'm feeling so drawn towards Jinnie at this moment, recalling our heated kiss from earlier. I hope that their acting skills are up to date, if we were to accidentally touch. I'm glad that while I was blindfolded, I only touched the fabrics of their clothes. Otherwise would've given me away. The glances that I've been receiving from the other team, sends shivers down my spine. I hope they don't try and distract me in any inappropriate way that could loose us this game. I will not go down that easily. Jk served the ball, offering them a hard curve ball. After a while, I hit the ball out of bounds, scoring us our first point. Suga picked up the ball, looked me straight in the eyes, licked his lips and hit it. This time Monie came to my aid by hitting the ball. Hobi spiked it past one of my team mates earning them a quick point in return. I couldn't have chosen a better team. My team and I were the first to break the ice, bringing the end score to 17-16. Jimi stared at me as I hugged my team mates one at a time. The little green monster clearly noticeable on his complexion. I felt slightly awkward when I enjoyed Jinnie' s embrace much more than intended. Monie pulled us apart and said: "Enough!" Jimi looked sadly down at his feet. I feel guilty all of a sudden. Maybe I've bite off more than I can chew by arranging this day. "Who's hungry?" Tae asked. Suddenly extremely grateful for the diversion. We made our way towards the picnic area. Jinnie had really outdone himself, sure I helped, but he did more. I mostly lost myself staring at him.
