Chapter 12: Morning Mischief

Jimin's voice startled Yn and Jungkook as he descended the stairs with messy hair. "Doing romance in the kitchen? Not a good idea," he teased, a mischievous twinkle in his eyes.

Yn felt her cheeks flush with embarrassment, quickly standing up from her seat. "Oh, Jimin, it's not like that. We were just cooking together," she explained, trying to hide her flustered state.

Jungkook chuckled,. "And if we were, is there anything wrong with it?"

Jimin raised an eyebrow, a playful smirk playing on his lips. "Sure, sure. Whatever you say, lovebirds, but have some mercy on me. I'm single," Jimin said.

 Then, he paused for a moment before shouting at the top of his lungs, "Boyyyyyyyyyyyyyss, if you want to eat kimchi stew, get your asses up from your bed!"

Yn and Jungkook exchanged amused glances as the sound of footsteps echoed upstairs. Within moments, Taehyung and Jin appeared, rubbing their eyes and yawning.

"What's all the commotion about?" Jin asked, his voice still groggy from sleep.

Taehyung sniffed the air, his eyes lighting up. "Kimchi stew? Count me in!"

Jungkook laughed, motioning for them to sit. "Grab a seat, guys. We made plenty."

As they settled around the table, Jimin nudged Yn with a grin. "So, when's the wedding?"

Yn rolled her eyes, trying to suppress a smile. "Very funny, Jimin."

Jungkook, still chuckling, shook his head. "Ignore him, Yn. He's just jealous he wasn't invited to help."

"Exactly," Jimin said with mock seriousness. "I make an excellent sous-chef."

"Sure you do," Yn teased, finally relaxing as the playful banter continued.

Just then, RM walked in, still in his night suit. "What happened? Why were you screaming? Oh, smells nice," he said, catching a whiff of the kimchi stew.

Suga followed shortly after, carrying a pillow. Without warning, he lightly whacked Jimin with it. "Why were you screaming in the middle of the night?" he grumbled, his voice laced with sleepy irritation.

Jimin ducked away, laughing. "I just wanted to make sure everyone didn't miss out on Jungkook and Yn's amazing cooking!"

RM shook his head with a smile. "Well, mission accomplished. We're all awake now."

Suga, still half-asleep, slumped into a chair and took a deep breath. "Alright, if I have to be up this early, at least there's good food involved."

"Where is Alex?" Yn asked.

"He went back to his workplace," Jimin replied.

"Oh... okay," Yn said quietly, her eyes meeting V's for a brief moment.

 Jin clapped his hands together, looking at Yn and Jungkook. "Our chefs for the morning! This better be good."

Yn smiled, her initial embarrassment fading as she saw how excited everyone was. "Hope you all enjoy it. Jungkook did most of the work."

"Not true," Jungkook said, shaking his head. "It was a team effort."

As they all gathered around the table, Jimin nudged Yn with a grin. "See? No harm in a little kitchen romance."

"Jimin, shut up," Yn said, rolling her eyes but unable to hide her smile.

Jimin chuckled, raising his hands in mock surrender. "Okay, sister-in-law." " jiminnnnnn" yn said

The group burst into laughter, the lighthearted teasing filling the kitchen with warmth and joy. The camaraderie and playful banter made the morning feel even more special as they all settled down to enjoy their meal together.

everyone dug into the steaming bowls of kimchi stew, the kitchen filled with laughter and chatter. It felt warm and homey, the perfect start to a lazy weekend morning.

"Okay, Jimin, since you're so eager to help," Jungkook said, eyes twinkling, "you can do the dishes."

Jimin feigned horror but relented with a sigh. "Fine, but only because this stew is amazing."

J-Hope chimed in, "Beauty queen, you go and sleep. We will handle this."

Yn was about to head to her room when Suga spoke up. "From where do you think she is a beauty queen? Just so-so."

Yn replied with full sass, "I'm much better than your yellow face, Mr. Cat," and walked to her room.

"Hey, what did you just call me?" Suga exclaimed.

Jimin giggled and replied, "Mr. Cat."

Suga glared at him. "Sorry, hyung, but accept that she is more savage than you."

The group burst into laughter as Jimin continued to chuckle, and Suga reluctantly smiled, shaking his head at the playful teasing. The camaraderie and warmth of their friendship made the early morning feel even more special
