V groaned as Jung-kook dive bombed on top of him. "Get off me!" he yelled fumbling for his pillow and smashing it on his face.

Bubbles of laughter left him as he rolled down from the bed and sat on the floor, waiting for V to get up.

"What is it?" he sluggishly asked, wiping the drool from his mouth. Jung kook shrugged and got up, "I don't know."

V almost growled. "Why did you wake me up so early? It's not even 7."

Jung-kook smiled slyly, "Simply."

He grabbed a pillow and threw it at his band-mate and dug back into the blankets and the cold of the air conditioned room. Before Jung-kook could get out to annoy his next target, Suga, V got up again. "Jung-kook," he called.

Jung kook looked back, expecting another pillow coming at him, "Buy me some ice cream."

"Roger that!" Jung-kook agreed and trotted back down after grabbing V's black mask from the dresser. Nam-joon, who was making pancakes saw Jung-kook adjusting his mask on his face. "Where are you going?"

Nam-joon was in a orange colored apron that made him looked funny. Jung-kook tried not to laugh, "Going to get some ice cream for V. Do you want any, hyung?"

Nam-joon nodded, "Mint Chocolate Chip."

Jung-kook rolled his eyes, "Do you actually like it?" he asked, remembering the commercial Nam-joon gave. Nam-joon shrugged, "It's actually good." he pointed a spatula at him, "Take care, okay?"

"Yes, mom," Jung-kook sang and trotted out into the sunshine right after Lisa had stepped out of the house. But he didn't see her. No, not then.

He got to the supermarket first and looked at the chocolates first. He took five and moved onto the candies. Not liking anything, he decided to take the ice cream. But then a girl caught his eye. She was standing next to the fridge and staring at the ice cream on the top most rack.

Jung-kook tilted his head a little bit and saw the Mint Chocolate Chip he had come for. She looked to the left if anyone was watching. Before she could look to the right and catch him staring, he looked the other way and acted like he had taken an interest in the variety of coffee powders.

After a few seconds, he looked back up again and she was gone. "What? Where did she go?" he muttered and looked back. Being as tall as he was, he could see over the racks and saw the girl standing in the queue.

Jung-kook went to stand in front of the fridge. He smiled and slid the ice cream box out of its place effortlessly and dropped it in his basket. He took a Blue berry ice cream too.

He wanted to capture the expression on her face when she spotted the Mint Chocolate Chip right in front of her. It was divine. Her mouth dropped open in disbelief. He almost said 'Yes' when she had asked.

Stepping out of the market first, suddenly he stopped and looked back at the girl paying at the counter. He then remembered her expression again. Puffed eyes, eyelashes crusted with dried tears.

He sighed and looked at the Mint Chocolate Chip in his cover. She needed more than RM did, he realized and stood on the side of the supermarket and stared at the sky.

"Guess I'll wait for her to come out then."
