The rain had started in soft taps, but by evening it poured against the root like a waterfall. The house buzzed with warm light and quiet conversation - until the storm cut everything. The Power Went Out.
Jin
(Standing in the kitchen doorway holding a ladle.)
Okay... who forgot to pay the electricity bill.
Kim Namjoon
(Calmly)
It's the storm.
The lines in this area are probably overloaded.
Jeon Jungkook
(Already moving toward the drawer)
I'll get Candles.
Kim Taehyung
(From the living room couch)
You're way too calm for someone who almost cried when the toaster spark last week.
Jeon Jungkook
(Grinning.)
I only cried because i love toast.
Jhope
(Dragging his blanket behind him like a ghost)
I hate storms.
This is horror movie energy. I'm bunking with someone .
Min Yoongi
(From the couch, eyes closed)
You have a room, Hoseok .
Jhope
Not one with stable emotions.
Park Jimin
(Laughing softly)
You can sleep in my room if you need emotional support , Hobi.
Jhope
(Grinning.)
I knew you'd offer , my little sunshine flirt.
In the flickering Candlelight , they gathered in the living room .
Blankets pilled.
knees touched.
Silence fell for a moment - a calm that felt rare.
Park Jimin
(Whispering to Yoongi beside him)
You okay in the dark, Hyung.
Min Yoongi
(Voice quiet but honest)
Yeah it's quieter.
Park Jimin
(Watching him )
I like you quiet , you look peaceful .
Min Yoongi
(Meeting his eyes )
I like you when you're not flirting .
Park Jimin
(Smiling) "☺"
So.... never , then ?
Yoongi didn't answer , but his eyes lingered longer than they usually did.
Kim Taehyung
(Lying on the floor beside Jungkook)
JK , remember our dorm nights ? No lights. No heaters.
Just freezing toes and shared hoodies?
Jeon Jungkook
(Soft smile)
I remember everything about those nights)
Kim Taehyung
(Rolling to face him)
You're getting sentimental.
You okay?
Jeon Jungkook
(Reaching out and brushing a piece of hair from Taehyung's cheek)
Just.....glad we're all still together .
Kim Taehyung
(Heart fluttering, barely audible.)
Me too.
Jin
(Pulling a blanket over Namjoon's shoulders)
Still think someone will fight in 24 hours?
Kim Namjoon
(Looking at their younger friends)
They might fall in love first.
