"Hello."

I groaned and tucked myself under my blanket; not ready to wake up yet.

"Hello?" The unfamiliar voice asked, ruining my sleep.

Irritated, I exposed my sleepy face and found a tall man standing in the door way.

"Ah- hi!" He said, increasing the loudness of his voice as he awkwardly waved at me. It took me a few moments before I smiled back at the tall man standing in my doorway.

"Um, Namjoon." He paused and extended his hand as he approached me. "Kim Namjoon."

I extended my hand and slowly shook his.

He nodded and placed both of his hands in his pocket and suddenly, his mouth dropped. "Ah- by the way, someone was trying to call you. That's why I woke you up."

I shifted between him and my phone that was placed on the nightstand beside the bed. Yawning, I thought to myself: Who would call me this early?

He nodded and went out of the guest room.

I yawned and lazily rolled to the other side of the bed to grab my phone. I pressed the home button and realized that I received 11 missed calls from only one person.

My eyes widened and I hurriedly called the person back, worry shown in my entire face.

After 3 tries, the person finally answered. I sighed in relief when I heard his voice.

"Amber, hey. I've been trying to call you. Where are you? You aren't home today when I checked."

"Lance."

"I ran home today. I'm sorry I left. I'm okay now. Where are you?"

I sighed and looked out the window that had a blue curtain covering

it. The curtain had small flower designs that were the color of gold which made it look much more beautiful.

By this time, I haven't even noticed that I was admiring the small details of the guest room that I forgot to answer Lance's question. Taehyung only brought me here to sleep and I never had a chance to look at the guest room properly.

"A house."

I felt Lance frown through the phone and I figured he was gonna go look for me when I heard small sounds coming from the background.

"What house? Tell me the address. I'll come pick you up."

"Lance, no. This house should be kept private, actually. No one should know where this house is because people might sneak in here without the owners knowing."

"O—" He paused and suddenly, all the noise from the background went silent.

"Who are you with?"

"Lance, you don't have to worry. I'm fine here."

"You're with the boys, aren't you?" Then the noise started again. I couldn't help but sigh at his question.

Silence.

"I'm coming to get you. Stay there."

"Lance I-" A ringing sound vibrated through the phone which meant that he has already ended the call. I ran my hands through my face and groaned to myself.

I sighed and walked down the stairs, heading towards the living room where I found Taehyung. As I took the last step, I found Taehyung's eyes finding it's way to mine.

He stood up and walked towards me, "Hey." He smiled.

"Lance called me. He's gonna pick me up."

"You're going home already?" Taehyung said, a small frown appearing on his lips.

I nodded. He stuttered and struggled to find words. I noticed his face lighting up when he realized he forgot to tell me something. "Ah- Jin hyung is cooking breakfast for us. You should stay." He said with a small smile.

I nodded before tilting my head. Before I grinned, he twitched his eyebrows when he noticed me. "What's so funny?" He asked, grinning back at me.

I shook my head and walked away; leaving him clueless and confused.

"Jin oppa, the food is great!" I said. His eyes turned to me when he noticed my sudden compliment of his food.

"I see you know honorifics. That's good." He smiled.

"Aish! Where's Yoongi hyung? He's missing out on the great food." Jimin scoffed and looked around the place.

"Sleeping." Hoseok said while facing his food as he took another spoonful of rice and shoved it in his mouth.

Jimin's eyes widened before it glinted in anger. He stood up and marched towards I believe was Yoongi's bedroom.

Jungkook snickered and we continued to eat the food. I could hear faint noises from the room which I figured was them, shouting at each other.

Then as time passed, I spotted Jimin's small body on the doorway while Yoongi started shouting at him.

Turns out, Yoongi was the only one shouting.

"Aish! I don't care if I miss breakfast. Who told you that you can wake me up?" Yoongi said, making the younger one's eyes glint in fear. Jimin awkwardly scratched the back of his neck and his face made it look like he just wanted to run and forget what happened.

Silence.

"You are so dead to me once I'm fully awake." He said but with a bit of a lower voice this time. Jimin nodded and slid his feet across the hallway.

I was about to speak when a knock on the door interrupted me. "Ah- wait! Amber!"

Taehyung stood up, running up to me. He sighed and grabbed my wrist, pulling me back.

His dark brown eyes stared into mine as we stood there, staring at each other while I spot the others smirk behind us.

"Go on a date with me." He spitted out. My eyes widened and my cheeks were heating up. His eyes showed fear; thinking that he could be rejected but it disappeared when I nodded my head.

A small grin found it's way to his lips. "I'll text you the details, then. Oh and by the way, what was so funny earlier?" He asked.

I snickered and tapped his nose, "I just find you really cute when you're nervous."

His eyes widened in shock and a small blush crept up to his cheeks; making it turn a little red. I walked away with a smirk placed on my face as he stood there, stunned.

It took me a few moments before turning the doorknob to reveal a tired-looking Lance. "Hey- um.. Amber I'm sorry I- Why are you smiling?" He stammered. When he asked me that question, I suddenly felt my smile getting wider.

I shut the door behind me after waving goodbye to the boys. I stared at his confused face before asking, "Do you still like me?"

His mouth opened widely, making it look like he struggled to find the correct words. "Um, well.. I'm trying to move on."

"Then maybe it's not the right time for me to tell you. I don't want chaos in this friendship."
