Serendipity

Chapter 7: Unexpected duo

Lea

Our…

Narrator

Namjoon and Lea were in the living room. After she got caught with the boys, he took her outside the bed room.

Narrator

He didn’t answer.

Lea

Male?

Narrator

She looked at him with sad eyes, not knowing if he was mad or what.

Lea

It was just a pillow fight-

Namjoon

Just a pillow fight? Lea…

Namjoon

Do you know what will happen if you hit your head?

Lea

But nothing happened

Namjoon

IT COULD HAPPEN- look, I don’t want you get hurt

Namjoon

I could never apologize myself if something happens…

Narrator

He lowed his voice, she looked down sighing.

Lea

I’m sorry

Narrator

Namjoon walked up to her and hugged her, she did the same.

Namjoon

No, I am sorry…

Narrator

The hug lasted few more seconds until the boys went out of the bed room.

Jimin

We are sorry, Namjoon hyung

Taehyung

We were just having fun

Jungkook

We will never do anything without your permission, hyung

Narrator

Even the hug finished, Namjoon and Lea were still holding each other.

Narrator

Namjoon laughed.

Namjoon

It’s okay guys

Hoseok

This ended up better than I thought

Jin

And we have a cute picture in front of us

Narrator

Jin says pointing at the pair of best friends, Hoseok, Jungkook and Taehyung smiled with softness. Jin took his phone out to take a picture.

Narrator

Yoongi raised his eyebrow looking at them, while Jimin just stood there with no expression.

Lea

Oh my god!

Namjoon

What?

Lea

It’s getting late and I have a test tomorrow-

Narrator

Suddenly it started to rain.

Lea

Ugh, stupid rain…

Jin

I have an idea

Jin

Since it’s not going to stop raining soon, why don’t you stay for the night?

Namjoon

That sounds great, but I can’t take her to her house because I have to go to the studio early and meet the manager

Jin

I can do that for you, if you don’t have a problem with that

Lea

I think it’s okay

Namjoon

Alright, let me give you something comfortable

Narrator

He walked into the bed room, in less than a minute he brought a big t-shirt.

Lea

Thanks

Jin

Okay, let’s go to sleep

Narrator

Jin dragged the rest of the boys into the bed room.

Jin

Sweet dreams!

Narrator

The next morning, Namjoon went to the studio, Hoseok, Jimin, Taehyung and Jungkook were in the dace practice studio.

Narrator

Jin and Yoongi were in the house with Lea.

Lea

I’m ready to go, Jin

Lea

Hear?

Jin

I’m so sorry, but something came up…

Jin

I can’t take you to your house…

Jin

Wait a second

Jin

Yoongi!

Yoongi

Yeah?

Jin

Could you take her to her place? I’ll give you all the tangerines you want

Narrator

Yoongi looks at her then at Jin.

Yoongi

Deal

Narrator

It was a silent walk. Lea felt really uncomfortable not knowing what was going on inside Yoongi’s mind.

Narrator

He was in front of her.

Lea

Did… did I do something?

Narrator

She asks, he stopped and turned around his head raising an eyebrow.

Yoongi

What?

Lea

I don’t know, but you have always that poker face with me

Lea

Again, did I do something you don’t like or…?

Narrator

He shakes his head.

Yoongi

Aren’t you getting late for your test?

Narrator

He says starting to walk faster.

Yoongi

Tell me again, where do we have to go? We already walked five blocks…

Narrator

Yoongi noticed she wasn’t behind him anymore.

Yoongi

Is? Is!

Narrator

He walked backwards, calling her.

Narrator

Until he felt something was going on.

Stranger 1

You are such an idiot

Stranger 2

What? Are you crying? What a coward

Stranger 3

Get the hell out of here

Narrator

They pushed Lea on the floor. She tried to not hit her head.

Narrator

She didn’t knew why these people were treating her like that.

Narrator

Then Yoongi stepped in the middle, covering Lea as he stares at the girls.

Yoongi

Leave her alone

Narrator

He helped her to get up and wrapped his arm around her shoulder, pulling her close to him.

Yoongi

I don’t know who you are, but there is no need to fight

Narrator

He tries to keep it cool, but the girls were being too mean. If he has to protect someone a friend of his cares, then he will do it.

Stranger 2

As if we’re going to listen to you

Narrator

With Lea by his side, he decided to walk away from those bullies.

Narrator

He didn’t let her go.

Yoongi

They don’t worth our time

Narrator

Lea was still shocked by Yoongi’s behavior.

Lea

Thank you

Narrator

They arrived to the train station.

Narrator

As soon as they got in the train, people stared at them weird.

Narrator

Yoongi didn’t care, he left off his arm from her shoulder and grabbed her by her hand. Just to go for a place to seat.

Narrator

When they sat, he went back to his bubble.

Lea

The school must have closed…

Yoongi

It seems like you missed your test, don’t you?

Yoongi

Either way it doesn’t really matter

Narrator

She lookes at him confused.

Lea

It was one of the final tests, of course it matters

Lea

My future depend of it

Yoongi

No

Yoongi

Your future depend of you, not because a number without value

Narrator

She thinks of it for a while.

Yoongi

Where are we going now? Because going to school isn’t an option

Narrator

Yoongi laughs.

Lea

Very funny

Narrator

She rolled her eyes.

Narrator

At this point, the place didn’t matter.

Narrator

They ended up on the other side of the city, where the panoramic was totally different.

Narrator

They sat on a bench near the lake.

Narrator

Now, it was a comfortable silence between them. They were just staring at the water for like some minutes straight.

Lea

This is nice, don’t you think?

Narrator

Yoongi just nodded.

Yoongi

It’s too relaxing, I want to take a nap…

Lea

Maybe the cold water could wake you up

Yoongi

Don’t you dare…

Lea

I’m not going to do a thing, relax

Narrator

Lea laughs as she stand up and take off her shoes.

Yoongi

What are you doing?

Narrator

She walks into the water.

Lea

Just checking around, it’s really beautiful

Lea

Look! There are small fishes, aww

Narrator

She smiles trying to follow the fishes with a look.

Narrator

Yoongi smirked with fun, his only thought was that she’s not normal.

Narrator

Of course, in a good way.

Narrator

He stands up and sits on the beggining of the water, avoiding it.

Narrator

Lea goes back with him.

Yoongi

Have you found something interesting?

Lea

Yeup, don’t you want to see it?

Yoongi

Do I have to go into the water?

Lea

Come on, it’s just water

Yoongi

I don’t want to

Narrator

He stands up looking at her serious. They were face to face.

Lea

You are boring

Yoongi

What did you just said? Repeat it

Narrator

He prepares as a fake boxer mood with a smile.

Narrator

She does the same.

Lea

You heard it the first time

Narrator

They started to play fighting. The only sound was their laughs.

Narrator

The fake punches turned into tickling.

Lea

That’s unfair

Yoongi

Who’s boring now?

Narrator

In a bad move, both fell into the water.

Narrator

Yoongi is the first getting out shaking. Lea laughst at him, and he laughs too.

Lea

I hate you

Narrator

She says joking, pushing him softly.

Yoongi

I hate you more

Narrator

He just followed her.

Narrator

A phone started to ring, interrupting the moment.

Lea

It’s mine

Narrator

She goes out of the water and walks to the bench where she left her phone before going into the lake.

Lea

Hello?

Namjoon

Hi!

Lea

Namu! I didn’t expect you to call, what’s up?

Namjoon

I had a free time, and I remembered you would be out of class

Namjoon

How was your test?

Lea

Well… about that…

Namjoon

Was it difficult?

Lea

No…

Namjoon

So it was easy?

Lea

No

Namjoon

So?

Lea

I actually missed it

Namjoon

What? How?

Lea

I just couldn’t get to school on time

Yoongi

We should go before any of us get a flu

Narrator

Yoongi says while squeezing his shirt.

Namjoon

Who’s that? Yoongi?

Lea

Yes, I’m with him right now

Lea

It’s a funny story

Namjoon

I… well, you can tell me the story later, I have to go now

Namjoon

Bye, L

Lea

Bye Namu

Narrator

Tha call ends.
