"I just don't understand how he can call Yoongi 'Hyung' but not me! I'm eight months older than Yoongi for fuck's sake!" Mizuki shouts, practically jumping on the table as he tried to convince Jungkook. Yoongi sips his tea, speaking, "It's not about age, it's about whether he respects you or not."

"Are you trying to say he doesn't respect me?!" Mizuki yells, eye twitching in anger. Yoongi looks towards him, a smug smile on his face as he answers, "Yeah, I guess that is what I'm saying."

"Fucking asshole-" Mizuki screams, before lunging towards Yoongi to attack him. Yoongi swiftly dodges, standing up from his seat. Namjoon stands in between them, crossing his arms. "Mizuki, calm down." He says, "I'm even older than you two and none of you call me Hyung. It doesn't really matter."

"But it does, Namjoon! If Yoongi gets to be called Hyung, then I should be called Hyung too. So..." Mizuki says, turning towards Jungkook who seemed to be spaced out before continuing, "...call me Hyung, Jungkook."

Jungkook's head bops as he looks up, an innocent look on his face as the boy drank his banana milk. He doesn't say anything. "See? He doesn't respect you." Yoongi remarks, a smirk on his face. "I'm gonna skin you alive-" Mizuki announces before attempting to murder him again.

"You shouldn't be fighting!" Namjoon says, firmly standing in between them.

"Namjoon Hyung is right, you shouldn't be fighting." Jungkook finally says, before going back to sipping his banana milk.

Mizuki's head slowly turns towards the childlike boy as he speaks through clenched teeth, "You've got to be fucking with me." Jungkook shrugs, a small smile on his face. "Who am I, Jungkook?! Who. Am. I?!!" Mizuki shouts, grabbing Jungkook's shirt while leaning over the table. Jungkook smugly replies, "Mizuki."

Said Mizuki shoves Jungkook away in resentment, a sour look on his face. "The most valuable person gets no respect in this damn place." Mizuki says in irritation, sitting down and crossing his arms on his chest as he looks away. Namjoon smiles, sitting down and shoving a plate full of leftover pizza in Mizuki's direction. He mutters something else before picking up a slice and eating it, mumbling, "Thanks."

Namjoon chuckles, going back to doing his own thing.

"What were you guys fighting about?" You say, sitting down next to Jungkook. Jungkook stops drinking as soon as he hears your voice, turning towards you. He notices Kai come in and take a seat next to a pissed off Mizuki, and his eyes fly back to you.

"Y/N, would you call me Oppa?" Mizuki asks, leaning forwards and holding both of your hands from across the table, a look of desperation on his face.

Jungkook's eyes widen as he hears that question, feeling himself get annoyed at it and also annoyed at the way Mizuki had just grabbed your hands as if they belonged to him. His eyebrow twitches in irritation.

"Uh, w-what?" You ask, leaning back and away from Mizuki. You eye him weirdly before awkwardly mumbling, "Why?"

Mizuki sighs, pulling his hands back and releasing yours. Jungkook feels his shoulders relax. Mizuki looks defeated as he stares away, a look of thought coming onto his face as he dramatically says, "I have been so severely disrespected today, I have no words. I guess you don't respect me either, Y/N."

Your eyes widen as you see him get offended. You immediately shake your head, speaking, "Of course I respect you! Why, who disrespected you?"

"It was Jungkook." Mizuki breathes out, setting his hand on his forehead dramatically as he watched through his fingers for your reaction. Your eyebrows jump up as you turn towards Jungkook, asking, "What did you do?"

Jungkook's eyes widen as he looks at you. "He wanted me to call him Hyung." He says, waiting for you to say or do something. "Hyung?" You repeat, confused. Jungkook nods.

You look back at Mizuki, "Does it really matter if he doesn't call you Hyung?" Mizuki takes his hand off his face, grabbing your hands yet again as he leans in closer to you.

Jungkook's fist involuntarily clenches. Yoongi was this close to ripping Mizuki's throat out if it weren't for Namjoon stopping him.

Once close enough, Mizuki speaks with a pained look on his face, "You see, he started calling Namjoon and Yoongi 'Hyung' as well. What makes me hurt is that he refuses to say it to me. I feel so disrespected I might just... kill myself!"

You gasp when he finishes, shaking your head violently. "Please don't kill yourself, oh my god."

Mizuki pauses, staring at you, "I won't... if, you call me Oppa."

Jungkook grabs your hands, pulling you away from Mizuki. "Okay, that's enough." He says. Mizuki rolls his eyes, turning back around and angrily chewing more pieces of food.

"I wonder if they're always like this." Jin mumbles, and Lisa nods in reply, "They're fun. It's good being around a lot of lively people."

"It is." Jin says, nodding to himself as he watched Jungkook happily converse with you.

"Ah, I'm tired!" Jungkook exclaims, collapsing onto your bed. You look at him, closing your room door before asking, "You do realise Lisa and I have to share this room right?"

Jungkook props his head up, looking at you with a smug look on his face. "I got Jin Hyung to make her sleep in his room tonight."

You gasp in excitement, clapping your hands before running over to the bed, "Yes! I didn't say anything but they do look like they've gotten closer after being trapped together." You pause, leaning in closer to Jungkook and whispering, "I ship them."

"I do too!" Jungkook shouts, sitting up. The two of you fangirl for a moment, squealing and clapping before you pause, looking at Jungkook with a concerned look on your face. You slowly ask, "Uh, Jungkook... are you okay with that? I mean, you did like Lisa a lot didn't you?"

Jungkook freezes, not expecting such a question from you. He decides to play a slight prank. "Would you be jealous if I admit that I did?" Jungkook says, eyes piercing into yours.

You feel your chest tighten, eyes slowly widening. Your heart felt like it had been crushed. So this is true jealousy, you think to yourself, already despising this new feeling. "Yeah, I think I would." You admit, choosing to be completely honest.

Jungkook's eyes widen in shock. He hadn't expected you to say that, assuming you would deny everything. He felt his heart flutter in his chest. Jungkook then decides to come clean, knowing that you wouldn't be ready for what he said next. "You wanna know something?" Jungkook asks, sitting closer to you. You nod, captivated by his eyes as they gazed into yours.

"I never liked Lisa." Jungkook admits, a goofy grin on his face.

You freeze, shock taking over you. "What?!" You stutter out, confused as hell. Surely, you remember Lisa telling you about Jungkook's confession clear as day. He had visited your house at midnight and you had seen him practically storm inside and climb on top of her. When you asked her about it, she had said that Jungkook confessed and she gently rejected him. What was he going on about now?

"I've always liked you." Jungkook says, a smile on his face. Your eyes widen further as you shout again, "What?!" You had never been more confused than you were now.

Jungkook sits straight, clearing his throat before beginning, "Remember the day I came to your house at like 2 o'clock in the night?" You nod and he continues, "Well, I was drunk as hell then and I mistook Lisa for you. It was super embarrassing when she told me she wasn't who I thought she was. Drunk me had practically climbed all over her at that point. I felt so bad. I left then and came back the next morning while you were asleep, begging her not to tell you about the incident. I didn't want you knowing I had a crush on you."

You were beyond shocked. It made sense now, why Lisa had hesitated when telling you and why Jungkook was so awkward around her now. It all made sense. "So that's why she lied to me and said she rejected you."

He snorts, "Yeah."

But it still didn't sit right with you. "You were such an asshole to me though!" You shout, looking at him with a pout before continuing, "You threw the mail on my face every time it accidentally delivered to your house, you'd shut the door right in my face every time I came to ask you for something, you'd always shove me out of the house whenever Jin invited me inside and let's not forget that time you almost ran me over with your damn car!"

Jungkook groans, holding your hands in his as a way of apology before speaking, "I was just so awkward around you I didn't know what else to do. And the running you over was an accident. In my defence, who just sits down in the middle of someone else's driveway."

"It was my driveway, though!" You shout, annoyed.

Jungkook wraps his arms around you, pulling you to lie down with him as he embraced you. He speaks, "Okay, okay, I'm sorry. It was completely my fault."

"It was." You agree, before feeling a sharp pain stab at your back when Jungkook's arm held it too tight. "Ow!" You say, flinching. Jungkook removes his arm, looking at you with a concerned face and asking, "Are you okay?"

You nod, rubbing at your side before asking, "Why didn't you just heal it with your tears?"

He sighs, leaning back and embracing you not too tightly this time. "I used them to heal everyone else's injuries, and I couldn't heal yours by the time I got to you. I told you they had a limit." Jungkook explains.

You nod, slightly amazed before allowing Jungkook to hold you. Then the previous conversation you had with Jungkook flashes through your mind and you speak, "I still can't believe you never liked her. Imagine if you hadn't explained that to me, I would've spent my whole life wondering what would have happened if you and Lisa started dating."

"While we're on the topic of explanations..." Jungkook says, looking down at you before continuing, "...can you explain something to me too?"

You nod, looking up and waiting for him to continue. Jungkook licks his lips before asking, "Remember when we were at your house and you were giving me Ji-Hyun's clothes to wear? At that time, you said you had killed him. What did you mean by that?"

You feel sadness return to you at the thought of your deceased brother. You gulp, preparing yourself for the emotional rollercoaster you were about to go on before deciding to speak, "Ji-Hyun died when I was 18 and he was 27. He had just come back home to visit and I had a fight with him, a really huge one. I barely remember what it was about, but I said something so hurtful to him that he claimed he was running away. He said he was tired of having to deal with my tantrums. He left, got into a car accident. The car exploded, but we couldn't find Ji-Hyun's body there, just a few strands of his hair. We had a funeral and everything, assumed he was dead. Turns out he actually wasn't and that goddamn demon got him and staged the car crash. Anyways, since that day, I had always blamed myself for his death. I'd never gotten along with him in the first place, we had a terrible brother-sister relationship but he was still blood, he was still my family. That funeral was the worst and saddest experience of my life."

You feel tears fill your eyes at the end of your words, and Jungkook lifts his hand up, running his fingers through your hair. "It's okay, it wasn't your fault. Plus, we dealt with that bastard demon already, so you should be relieved. Your brother would be proud of you." He says, a soft smile on his face.

A tear falls from your eyes as you nuzzle your face into Jungkook's chest. "I hope he is." You say, clutching onto Jungkook.
