Anomalous Fate - New Home

Pairing: OT7 x Reader

Warnings: swearing, mentions of kidnapping, BTS being clueless, reader is overwhelmed and confused.

Author's Note: Finally got the sudden motivation to write this chapter, I had to start from the very beginning because when I wrote about half way through, I closed my laptop and it died while I was at work, and I hadn't saved it so it was completely gone. I do want to say thank you all for your patience, I hope to have another chapter up soon again, but don't be surprised if it doesn't come as quickly. Hope you enjoy it!!

“This is it?” Jungkook asks as he’s looking up at the front of y/n’s apartment building.

“I think so, she stays on the 5th floor,” Jin answers and looks inside, seeing a security guard at the desk, assuring himself that they’ll be fine, he doesn’t pay attention to the rustling behind him, “getting past the front desk shouldn’t be too hard, we just have to act normal.” Jin states and starts toward the door, “Let’s go.”

He enters the building and shoots a friendly smile to the security man, standing in front of the elevator and waiting for it to open, “Okay, so I’ll grab her clothes and bathroom things, you two can-” Jin stops as he double takes his surroundings, “-where are these idiots?”

He’s frantic as he looks around the lobby, trying not to alert the security, he lets out an exasperated sigh and decides to just go up alone, “I should’ve just brought Namjoon and Hoba.”

___________________________________________________________

As soon as Jin is in the apartment, he quickly notices the huge pile of shoes beside the door and four separate rooms, “She has roommates? Great, how are we going to explain this one?”

Jin shakes his head and quickly gets to work, checking all the rooms before finally finding y/n’s, going inside, and grabbing the suitcases he finds in her closet, stuffing whatever clothes he can find, wanting to get out as fast as he can as they still have a flight to catch in about 20 minutes now.

He jumps when he hears a bump from the living room and the panic sets in, thinking he’s caught red handed.

He’s debating all his options of escaping when he hears two hushed voices coming from the living room,

“Is Jin hyung here yet?”

“I don’t know, he wasn’t following us.”

He listens to the two boys and rolls his eyes, walking out of the room and jumping when Jungkook and Taehyung shriek in surprise, “Shhhhh!” he scolds them, motioning them with his hands

“Holy shit hyung, you scared us.” Jungkook holds his chest and Taehyung nods in agreement

“Why did you go through the window when we have her keys for a reason??” Jin questions, second guessing his decision on bringing the two youngest members with him.

“Because we’re breaking and entering…?” Jungkook whispers, Jin shakes his head, “It’s not breaking and entering if we have the key! If anyone asks, just say we’re getting clothes for our cousin who is in the hospital with a broken collarbone.” He explains.

“ummmm, pretty sure it’s still breaking and entering.” Jungkook counters and Taehyung pipes up, “Plus, it’s way cooler to say breaking and entering.”

“Oh nevermind! Just help me get her clothes packed.” Jin leads the way into her bedroom and grabs the suitcases from her closet, opening one up and taking it into her bathroom.

As the two maknaes are folding her clothes, Jin is looking around the place for little things he thinks she might need. He stumbles upon her nightstand and opens the drawers, fidgeting around until he spots a necklace.

As he inspects it, he feels a drop in his stomach and a pull in his chest before quickly shoving it in her suitcase and zipping it up.

“You guys get everything?” He questions and the other two nod, “I think so.”

“Alright, c’mon, we have a flight to catch.”

They all make their way out, closing her bedroom door and all the lights and just as Jin is putting his shoes back on, he speaks loudly, “Not that way…”

He smirks as he hears them huff and make their way back over to the door, “You’re no fun hyung…”

____________________________________________________________

“Okay so, how are we getting her on the jet?” Namjoon asks, turning toward everyone

“Jungkook will carry her,” Taehyung shrugs, nodding to the youngest member

Jungkook sputters, flabbergasted, “Why me?”

“Because this is your doing!” Tae retaliates,

“Yeah, you’re the reason she’s passed out” Jimin pipes in,

“Oh, so now I’m the bad guy, last I checked she was alllll our soulmate”

“Well, until she wakes up, she’s just yours”

“That’s not fair!”

“Life isn’t fair,” Jimin sticks his tongue out,

��Okayyyyy, enough,” Joon groans, “I’ll carry her.”

Yoongi rubs at his eyes, checking the time and seeing they have 20 minutes to get to the airport, “Let’s get going, I’m tired and I need to sleep.”

“He’s right, we don’t have much time, c’mon.” Hobi quickly agrees with Yoongi’s words and soon, all the boys and the sleeping y/n are making their way down to their car.

______________________________________________________________

After a 14-hour flight, the boys arrived in Seoul, and after much deliberation on the ride home, ensured that the staff would exit the plane last so they could get y/n to a secure exit without looking too suspicious.

As the boys went to the main exit, followed by dispatch and a couple fans, their makeup artists and stylists took the emergency exit that was right beside the corridor, hopping into a van with the girl, and driving straight to the dorms.

Once they arrived, they took y/n into one of the rooms there, laying her on the bed and quickly making their exit, but not before sliding the keys under the door.

The 5 women began speaking in their native tongue while waiting for the elevator,

“I’ve gotten a lot of weird requests from these boys, but that has got to be the worst by far.”

“No kidding, would’ve been easier if they just moved to the states.”

All 5 huffed a laugh and made their way back to the HYBE building.

______________________________________________________________

“If she’s still passed out by the time we’re home Jungkook, I’m charging you myself” Jin speaks, looking pointedly at his member

“She’ll be fine hyung, you worry too much.” Jungkook shakes his head, “She’ll be fine.

______________________________________________________________

Y/N opens her eyes, groaning in pain. She rubs at her head, feeling the worst headache ever, but when she’s acquainted to the sunlight from the window, she panics when she doesn’t recognize the ceiling.

She sits up abruptly, wincing at the headache, and immediately stands up, wobbling around the room, the effects from whatever was on that cloth obviously not worn completely off

“Where the fuck am i?’ she thinks to herself, looking around the room and seeing a couple shirts on the floor and some boxers, her eyes widen when she thinks of the worst, glancing down and seeing her clothes from the night at work

“How long has it been?”

Her head snaps up when she hears keys jingle at the door, gasping and grabbing the closest thing to her that she can use to defend herself with, which happens to be a weight, about 20 pounds, but it’ll do.

She slowly walks out and down the hallway, and just as the door swings open, she immediately winds her arm back, planning on throwing it toward whoever kidnapped her but freezes when she’s met with seven pairs of very familiar eyes,

“What the fuck?!”

______________________________________________________________

All seven boys are seated nervously on the couches in the living room, staring at the girl in the middle of the floor, waiting for her to speak.

“So, you were the ones in the Uber?”

They nod.

“And you broke into my apartment?”

They nod.

“And you brought me to Korea?”

They nod.

“Because I’m your soulmate?”

They nod.

“You kidnapped me because I’m your soulmate?”

They nod.

“Me?”

“Yes, please keep up with us.” Jimin quips,

y/n raises her eyebrow, “Well excuse me for finding this situation a bit-”

Taehyung interrupts her, “Cute? Adorable? Brave? Meant to be?”

“CRAZY…” y/n makes sure to pronounce the word efficiently, “I mean, you do realize people are going to be looking for me right?”

“My coworkers, my roommates, my parents, my classmates, hell, my university will be looking for me.” She tries to reason but all she gets are shakings of each head

“Actually, we called your job, told them you would be moving and unable to work, since you were there for less than six months, legally you don’t have to put a two week’s notice in.”

“And, regarding your university, we’re actually putting you into the exchange program they offer, it’s still in the works but basically, a student will be swapping with you for the same degree you are completing, that way you can attend classes here.”

“Your roommates know you’re on your way here, we basically texted them that you didn’t actually go to work but you were meeting with your advisor about the exchange program, and they suggested coming to Seoul to meet with the student you would be swapping with. When they asked why it was so sudden, we just said you wanted it to be kept secret.”

“That actually worked?” y/n questioned and Namjoon tilts his head, “That one was tricky and took a lot more explaining but once we sent a picture of you ‘awake’ on the plane, it worked.”

“So, you really planned everything huh?”

All boys nod, “We had a lot of time on the plane to think about it.”

y/n’s eyes well up with tears, the information sinking in, “I’m never leaving this place am i?”

Jimin quickly tries to calm her down, “No, no, no, no, not ever, just until you get comfortable with this whole situation.”

Hoseok pipes in, “Of course you can go outside and have your phone and laptop, just…” he looks to his members for some help.

Yoongi tries this time, “Just until we’re sure you won’t go to the police, or your friends and family to tell them the truth, I mean, we have a reputation to uphold.”

“And because of that, we have a few rules set in place…” He continues hesitantly.

They hand her a piece of paper with a short list, but she doesn’t pay it any mind,

“We’ll discuss it over dinner, it should be here shortly.”

Namjoon nods, “We’re sorry if this isn’t exactly how you’ve wanted your soulmate story to go, but if you belong to all of us, then there’s no choice.”

“I don’t belong to you guys…” y/n points, “as of right now, I might be your soulmate, but you guys aren’t mine.”

Unaware of how much her words hurt the seven boys’ hearts, they understand and hope she’ll come around eventually.

hi that last ask was me I realize it was really rude and I’m sorry but I checked ur last update and it was from the beginning of may so that’s why I was wondering if ur life was a lil less busy enough to actually finish it good luck in whatever your dealing w tho

noooo, don't worry too much sweets ! I totally understand. I want to say I am active and working toward finishing it, but at the same time active also means updating so I'm not sure which description to use.

You are completely fine to do whatever you feels best is for you. I reckon this story will have about 9 or 10 (short) chapters, if I were to make the chapters longer, realistically it would be about 5 or 6 chapters but I find I have writer's block more when my chapters are long.

It's slowing down now, the best time for me to write is when school starts up because then I have more free time as I'll be alone most of the day. (doesn't mean I will take as long as November, but just a little note) again, you are free to do whatever you would like !! <33

Hiya ! No you're fine sweets, it's totally on my end why it's not being updated. My life kind of turned a 180 and I was dealing with a bunch of stuff, but now I have more time and energy so I'll be working on the next chapter. Thank you for being so patient with me, my life is really unpredictable when it comes to errands to run or shifts to work. I can't even really explain it but just know that whenever I have the time I'm always writing little by little

Hope you're doing well ! <33

Heeey, I really don't want to come out as rude

But I'm wondering about your next update on your ot7 x reader fic

It's just that I got hooked and it's hard to find ot7 poly fics ))):

Also, I really hope you're doing fine 😞💜

Hiyaa, you're not rude at all nonnie !

I'm currently updating the next chapter, but I keep rethinking if I want it to be more crack! than yandere, but I can say that my plan is to slowly have them show that side as the story progresses.

It's just a matter of finding time as well bc I have two jobs and my life is pretty unpredictable in terms of errands I have to run, but I will try and have it out as soon as I can, I don't necessarily have a set schedule because of this, but I try not to have too much time in between chapters, if you'd like I can add you to my taglist to make it easier to keep updated :)

Also, I'm doing a lot better than I was let's say a week or so ago, thank you :), hope you're doing great as well <3

Anomalous Fate: "Now what?"

Author's Note: Finally another chapter for this series, I'm sorry it's taking so long omg, but we're finally passed all the technical stuff so hopefully we start moving more into the main plot. It's still minor bad writing but I'm hoping to get better lol. Hope you enjoy this chapter as much as I did, xx Pairing: OT7 x Reader Warnings: kidnapping, BTS not thinking situations through, Jimin being kinda creepy

“So, four of us share a soulmate?” Yoongi asked, and as the other four boys nodded, he sighed and sat back on the couch in their dressing room.

The concert was long over, giving the boys thirty minutes to get ready for the little meet and greet they have in just a few minutes now.

Namjoon is stuck in his thoughts, wracking his brain for a solution to the problem, and wondering if any solution he comes up with is the appropriate one, until he gives up.

“It’s nearly impossible to even think about what comes after this. We go back to Korea in a week, there’s nothing we can do.”

“Hyung, you’re not serious?” Jimin’s shoulders deflate slightly at the possible outcome of this situation.

“Yes, I’m serious, it’s a curse that this is how our fate is tied but We. Can’t. do. Anything.” Namjoon is stern while looking at Jimin and sits, but as each member processes his words, Jimin’s eyes brighten up and he opens his mouth to speak, but Jin beats him to it.

“Nope, no, I know what you’re all gonna say and nope, don’t even think about it.” Seokjin dismisses

He glances around the room and shakes his head at his younger members, “You can’t just kidnap someone!”

Yoongi tilts his head, “It’s not kidnapping if she’s our soulmate…”

Hoseok butts in, “…and if we already know she likes us…”

Seokjin pinches his forehead, “I can’t believe we’re even having this conversation.”

Jimin stands and walks to the other end of the room, “Hyung, we can’t just let her go. Not when we finally know who it is, not when we’re so close!”

“Jimin look, I get it. If that was my soulmate I would be feeling just as conflicted, but we need to think rationally here. Her life is here, her friends, family, school, job, everything she has, is here. Our life is in Korea, we can’t just take her and expect her to adapt to that. And what if word gets out that we kidnapped a girl? What would that do for us, our career. Shit, what would that do for her?” Jin rants, looking at the four boys in shame.

“Hyung said no, and I mean it.” Jin finishes with a strict tone so his younger members know not to ask again, diminishing any last hope his brothers had.

Jungkook and Taehyung are sitting on the couch, staying quiet. Taehyung couldn’t really believe the chaos that unfolded in just a matter of a couple hours. His hyungs finding their soulmate, finding out they share said soulmate, and now asking if they can just take her with them back to Seoul. He could almost relate to his hyungs though, knowing that if he found his soulmate here, he would everything in his power to have her move with him.

Jungkook was much the same, he was trying to process everything, but more than that, he found himself hoping that his hyungs would go through with the idea, because deep inside, he hoped she was his soulmate too. They were brothers, they shared everything, why not this?

“NO! You can’t make me!” Y/N struggles against her friend’s arms, dragging her toward the room where they’ll be meeting the boys.

Kristie groans, “Y/N, that’s enough, you’re meeting them because Jasmine’s dad didn’t spend all this money just for you to stand outside the door.”

Y/N slumps down the wall and looks at her friends guilty, feeling sorry for ruining what was supposed to be a good night.

“I’m sorry I’m roping you guys into this.”

Kristie and Jasmine sit beside their friend and grab her hands, “Hey, it’s fine, this is actually a lot more amusing than you think.”

Jasmine nods, “It might be scary now, but hey, you finally found your soulmates, you should be ecstatic. Sure, it might be a few of the BTS members, but they’re still normal guys. You’re a dime and a half Y/N, I’d be more surprised if they didn’t accept it. I know they will.”

After calming a little, Y/N smiles at her friends’ words, “I guess maybe I am overthinking it all, but it’s very overwhelming,” she slowly stands and helps her friends up as well, “It’ll be nerve-wracking as hell but, I do want to meet them.”

Kristie and Jasmine cheer and they all file into the room, one after the other, and are met with a shorter line than expected, moving to the back, and smiling politely at the fellow army.

Jimin is lost in thought as he follows his members down the hall, he was hoping to see his soulmate waiting for him in the meeting room after he saw her run out of the theatre.

He understood that it may have been overwhelming for you, but he didn’t expect you to just leave like that.

He hears excited murmuring and squeals as they approach the meeting room, and when he enters, his eyes are immediately glancing at the fans, waving, and smiling politely.

As his eyes reach the end of the line, he has to contain his excitement when he notices his string ends just on the other side of two girls, his mood lifting.

It’s another hour before he notices there’s only two more girls before he gets to properly meet you and what looks like your friends.

He looks at Namjoon, who gives him a slight thumbs up.

“Look who’s excited.” Hoseok teases his friend. Namjoon huffs a laugh and looks down, “Aren’t you?” Hoseok nods, “Of course, it’s about time we get to meet them.”

Namjoon nods knowingly, and the boys all smile for the photos, making sure to give the fans in front of them their complete attention.

As the two girls walk out of the room, the staff mention, “Last three, you can come up now girls.”

As each boy glances at them, the seven boys feel a sudden pull in their chest to the girl with blue hair, and Seokjin furrows his eyebrows in confusion at the feeling. Shaking it off as him being tired, as he pulls the tallest girl in for a slight hug.

Taehyung smiles politely and makes out a quick, “Hello, nice meeting you.”

As Taehyung is smiling at the shortest girl, he glances at her shoes, nodding along to make sure she knows he’s listening, and his eyes wander from her shoes to her friend’s shoes, and as his eyes go to flicker back to the girl in front of him, they land on her friend’s wrist, pausing at the time written on it.

He flickers to his own wrist and tenses at the fact that they’re the exact same.

He shakes his head slightly and focuses back on the conversation, he feels bad that he’s missed a bit of it, but she doesn’t seem to notice, which he’s grateful for.

As the girls move around and make conversation, Jungkook finds himself standing in front of Y/N and he bows his head slightly, “Hi, nice to meet you, I’m Jungguk.” He holds his hand out to shake and as the girl takes it, she smiles nervously, “Hello, uh my name is Y/N, it’s really nice to meet y-ow!”

Jungkook and the girl both pull back when they’re hands meet, Jungkook hissing at the pain and Y/N rubbing her palm.

“Yah, Jungguk-ah, you okay?” Hoseok asks in Korean, and the youngest nods, turning his attention to you, “You okay?”

He sees the girl nod, but she continues rubbing her palm, “I’m fine.”

Namjoon clears his throat at the weird encounter and stands beside the two, “Shall we take a picture?”

Everyone nods and Jimin immediately pulls Y/N toward him, standing her right in the middle of the group, Y/N laughs nervously and smiles for the picture, not noticing Jimin or Yoongi’s tight grip on her waist.

She’s still very nervous, not talking much at all, but the members are being sweet to her, maybe a little too sweet but none of them bring up the soulmate thing and Y/N isn’t sure anymore whether the pull in her chest is because of their ties, or her heart breaking at the thought of them not wanting her after seeing her up close.

Jimin ignored the string, Hoseok didn’t mention the hair, hiding his beneath his beanie, Yoongi didn’t say anything about his itchy wrist, and she saw that Namjoon had washed off the writing on his forearm.

Her eyes burn with tears, but she blinks them away as soon as they come, putting a smile on her face as to not bring any concern.

She notices Taehyung staring from time to time, but she ignores it as much as she can, she saw his time when she first hugged him but decided against saying anything, she couldn’t handle having yet another member as her soulmate, or more so, she couldn’t handle another member rejecting their tie.

She found she was most comfortable around Jin because there was no correlation as to them being tied together, naturally gravitating at the fact she didn’t have to worry about looking or acting a certain way.

He was making her laugh with his jokes, wanting nothing more than for her to be comfortable around him and his brothers, it was working, but either of them failed to notice the death glares shot at the pair.

“It was very nice meeting you all today, we hope to see you very soon again.” Namjoon spoke for him and his members, smiling at the three girls, who all slightly bow and return the smile, “Thank you for the great show, we hope to see you again as well.”

Y/N waves as she walks out with her friends, her hopes diminishing at the fact that none of them wanted her, or even brought it up. She can feel her eyes burn and before she leaves, she glances at Jimin once more who smirks, “We’ll see you very soon, love.”

She nods and smiles as best she can, walking out of the door and into her friend’s arms, Kristie rubbing her back and comforting her as they walk out of the theatre, Y/N sniffing quietly.

“You’ll find someone eventually Y/N, there’s a lot of people out there who don’t have a soulmate or who were, uhm…left alone…but don’t worry too much about that.” Jasmine consoled her friend as much as she could, but truthfully, she didn’t know what to do. It was rare to have a soulmate that didn’t want you, and what made this situation a little worse, Y/N already had so much love and care for hers.

“I just don’t understand why they totally ignored it, they could have at least told me they didn’t want me, instead of completely disregarding the elephant in the room.”

“They were jerks for that, but at least Jin was nice.” Kristie tried and Y/N nodded, “He really was, maybe if I had him as a soulmate, he would have been nicer. Instead of being ignored by all five of mine.”

Jasmine frowned at Y/N’s words, “Five?” Y/N nodded and looked down at her clock, “Taehyung’s clock is the other half to this one, making him my fifth soulmate.”

“…then I guess that means Jungkook is your sixth?” Y/N looked at Kristie with confusion, but her eyes followed where she was pointing, and on the inside of her right palm, written in lovely cursive, ‘Jeon Jungkook.’

Groaning loudly, she threw her head back and rubbed at her puffy eyes, “Fuck.”

“Listen, I’m fine, that was a few days ago now and I have to move on, it’s whatever.” Y/N explained to her friends, finishing up her late lunch and moving to put her plate in the sink.

“I know, but we’re just making sure everything is okay with you, but if you say everything is fine then we’ll take your word for it.” Jasmine shrugged, Y/N smiles at her friends and thanks them and all three girls startle at her phone that suddenly blares.

“Hello?” Y/N answers, hearing her boss on the other line,

‘hey y/n, I was wondering if you can make it in for an evening shift in like two hours? I know it’s last minute, but Hailey needed to leave, her babysitter bailed’

Y/N thought about it and decided it could take her mind off everything, so she agreed, telling the girls, and going off to get ready.

It’s been six days since the meet and greet, and Y/N was doing better honestly, she accepted her fate and didn’t want to dwell on it too much. But even she had to admit, in those times of quietness or in times of loneliness, it still hurt to know.

What made it easier for her was the call back she had gotten the day after the concert about an opening they were having at a clothing store she applied to at the mall. She stumbled upon the website when she was shopping and since summer was around the corner, she thought she’d apply. It’s where she’s been training for the past four days and although she wasn’t supposed to officially start until next week, her boss gave her an opportunity and of course, Y/N jumped at it.

Not wanting to be distracted by her thoughts anymore, Y/N took a quick shower, changing into semi comfortable clothes and brushed through her hair.

She took her time in doing some makeup and thinking about which bag she was going to take, making sure all the necessities were included, grabbing her keychain with her Mall ID and walking out of her room.

“Ready? Did you need a ride there?” Kristie asked

Y/N nodded, “Yeah that’d be great.”

“Let’s go.”

“Will you need a ride home afterwards?” Kristie asks her friend, watching her gather her things and put her hand on the door handle, “I could order an Uber, I know you have that dinner with Darren tonight.” Y/N reminds and Kristie nods

“Yeah, but if you end up needing one, just hit me up, I gotchu.” Y/N nods at her friends and words and opens the door, stepping out and turning back around to smile and wave, “See ya.” She shuts the door and walks to the side of the mall, going through the little alley and into the side door.

The hallway is quite hectic, she’s passing other workers of the mall and smiling politely, memorizing the way to the clothing store.

As she comes to the back entrance, right into the stocking room, she’s greeted by her manager, who smiles in relief upon seeing her.

“Thank god you came, we’re understaffed right now and need someone else on the till, as it starts slowing down you and Ali can slowly restock the racks and counters in front, we have a new line of clothes that are just waiting to be viewed.” Y/N nods at her words, walking at a faster pace to keep up, before coming up to the till.

Ali smiles at her to which she returns, glancing at the hands of her boss, “Here’s your password and user for the system, you’re trained on the POS already but if you have any trouble do not hesitate to walk away for some help, it’s always best to have customers wait a few seconds while you get help than to have customers wait a few minutes for you to figure it out on your own.” Once again Y/N nods and her boss leaves her to it.

She lets out a sigh at the longer than usual line and calls up her first customer.

‘here’s to my first day…’

“I can help who’s next!”

“So, where do you go to school?” Ali asks, scooping a little bit of her fro-yo and glancing at y/n

“I go to U of C; do you attend school?”

Ali nods, “I go to California State, I’m in my first year actually.” Y/N hums, “Oh okay, I remember my first year really well, I couldn’t imagine having to balance work and school though, but now this year I decided to try it out.”

“It gets hard sometimes, but it’s worth it I guess.” Both girls nod knowingly and continue to eat in silence.

“Do you guys close early if there’s no customers, or do you stay for the full shift?” y/n asked

“Sometimes we do that, but most times we like to stay for the whole shift, depends on if we have stocking to do.”

She hums and stretches her neck to see around the store, after that chaos of a line, both girls managed to get everyone satisfied with their purchases and out the store. It took about two hours to get it all sorted and as soon as the last customer left, they both collapsed on the floor, their other co-worker Gina bringing them fro-yo as a little treat.

“I think Gina is sorting through the back, I guess we could start bringing the new collection out. But first, we need to take those-” Ali points to a section of winter jackets, “-to the back, and bring out whatever she has for us.”

y/n nods and stands up, throwing her cup in the trash and making her way to the back of the store, taking out a cart and wheeling it over to the front of the store, carefully grabbing each jacket and taking it off the hanger and throwing it in the cart.

Her ears perk when she hears a couple boys laugh, glancing over and noticing three guys with masks on and some beanies. Paying them no mind, she goes back to sorting the jackets but when she looks and make eye contact with one of them, she notices him smile and slightly bow his head but before she can return it, her palm gets itchy.

Scratching it a little, y/n sees Ali walk up to the rack, “I brought this for the hangers.” She gestures at a basket and sets it down, picking up the hangers that y/n left and putting them inside.

y/n takes a chance and glances toward the man again, when she notices he’s gone, her eyes scan the stores that she can see and furrows her brows when she notices he’s completely disappeared. Shrugging it off, she goes back to her work.

It’s several hours later when the girls are double checking the store, making sure everything is in its place and nothing is out of the ordinary.

In the past few hours all three girls have put away the winter clothes, sorted through the spring and summer collections and placed them out for everyone to browse through. Shoes were placed on the rack and bikinis were folded neatly on the display tables, right down to the jewelry in front of the tills.

A few customers came in but after a while, as the mall was slowly closing, less and less of a crowd made it through, but each girl didn’t mind much.

“30 minutes until closing time, I’m going to run over to the food court for a quick bite, did you guys want anything?” Ali asked to which y/n and Gina shook their heads.

As she walked out, Gina’s phone rang, and she went to the back to open it.

y/n shrugged as she was left on her own, but her ears perked up when she heard someone come in, she gently smiled at the younger male, although you can’t really see it under her mask, and she waited at the till for them to browse.

y/n enjoyed her first day at work, which she didn’t expect, it was hectic at first but once she got used to the busy atmosphere, she found herself feeling happy that she was given this opportunity.

She rang up the customer as his eyes looked around the store, his gaze flitting to the back and to the front, and he grabs some hairpins that were displayed on the counter, “for my young niece, she’s only five but she’s learning to do her own hair already.” He explains, earning a gentle nod from y/n.

y/n tried her best to converse with her customer, wanting to waste these last few minutes of her shift, and once she bagged the man’s items, she sent him on his way, walking behind him to the front and pulling out the storefront gate and sliding it shut, making sure to leave a little space for Ali to walk in.

Gina comes back in from the back, already dressed and texting on her phone, “You were given keys, right?” y/n nods and pulls them out of her pocket.

“Okay good, Ali usually exits out the front and I lock up in the back, but my mom just called and she needs me to watch my younger brother, I have to be there in like ten minutes, you don’t mind locking up through the back today, would you?”

Y/N shakes her head, “No, no, that’s totally fine.”

Gina sighs in relief, “Thank you so much, I’ll see you on your next shift, good night!” y/n returns her words with a smile and wave before once again, making sure all the clothes are in place and her till is turned off, taking the money out, and walking to the back room.

She’s in the process of counting when she sees through the cameras that Ali is back, seeing her setting her food down and grabbing her till as well before walking in the back, her figure appearing in the room just a moment later.

“Gina had to leave early, so I’ll be locking through the back.” She explains, Ali nods, “Sounds good.”

They made small talk and put their till and the extra money in the safe, grabbing their things and going back out to the front.

“Well, I’ll see you on your next shift, hopefully that’s soon.” Ali speaks, she turns to see y/n nod, “I hope so, today wasn’t bad, I enjoyed it.” Ali quickly agrees, “It’s one of the best, although on bad days, that could seem like a lie,” she giggles, “but I’ll see you, have a good night.”

“Night.”

Ali shrugs out of the store, shutting and locking the gate, and marches toward the exit.

y/n pulls out her phone and orders an Uber, signalling that it will be here in the next 5 minutes, before grabbing her bag and closing the store lights.

She shuts the door behind her and locks it before making her way down the hallway, seeming much quieter now that most of the other employees are gone, and steps outside, seeing a black suv parked outside.

She makes sure to see the Uber sign before opening the door, “Is this for y/n?” the driver nods and she gets in, shutting the door and leaning into the soft seat.

As the driver pulls away, y/n turns her head to the side and out of the corner of her eye she notices movement in the backseat.

Startled, she goes to look behind her but the figure leans forward and places his hands arms, pulling her into the seat.

Y/N shrieks and leans forward, “No, stop!”

Another set of hands place themselves on her eyes, and she doesn’t see the figure grab the cloth in his lap, just feels the fabric over her mouth and taking a deep breathe in.

She fights for a bit before going completely limp, falling into the seat.

Both figures take off their beanies and masks, the first one flicking her head, “Did it work?”

“Of course, it worked, dummy.” Namjoon pushes his younger member’s shoulders

“Well, I don’t know, we haven’t exactly done this before hyung” Jungkook argues

“He’s got a point.” Yoongi speaks from the driver’s seat, he glances at the girl on the seat before looking at his members, “Now what?”

“What do you mean?” Jungkook asks, and Yoongi furrows his brows, “Don’t tell me you didn’t NOT think about what happens after this?”

Jungkook shrugs, “I came up with the first part, I thought you guys would have contributed a little.”

“Contributed?! Why would we-” Namjoon stops himself from shouting and sighs, pinching his nose bridge

____________________________________________________________

“You did WHAT? After I specifically told you NOT to?!” Jin shouts as he paces the room, all three of his friends sitting on the floor, and an unconscious girl laying sprawled on the couch

“We leave in one hour; how do you expect us to-I mean how did you even-oh my gosh.” Jin is almost panicking, having no clue at all how to fix this.

“Even if we did send her home, she’d wake up confused and scared as hell that something happened to her, but we just can’t take her either, and we sure as hell can’t exactly wait until she wakes up!” He explains to his members

“What’s with all the shouting?” Their heads snap at the door being opened and the other three members walking in, Jimin immediately perking up, “You actually, did it??” Jin glares at him and he clears his throat, “I-I mean, shame on you guys, this is…bad.”

Jungkook huffs, “It was your idea too Jimin!”

Jin crosses his arms and looks pointedly at Jimin, who throws his arms up exasperatedly, “Okay, and?? So, I helped a little, it doesn’t matter. All that matters is that she’s here…with us…with me.” He walks over to y/n’s sleeping form and smiles to himself

“C’mon hyung, she’s our soulmate, you can’t just expect us to leave her!” Hobi whines and Jin feels like screaming into a pillow.

Taehyung pipes in, staring at his clock, “If she’s tied with all of us, who’s to say she isn’t tied to you too?”

Jin pauses and glances at the girl, there’s a chance, but a slim one.

He sighs heavily, “Okay, fine, here’s the plan…”

reblogging because I updated Namjoon's part !!

Anomalous Fate - String Theory

Hey everyone, i'm back ! This is Chapter two (finally!) It's more so a filler chapter bc i just want to get to the concert already, and continue from there, but still a good read i hope.

Obviously as the story goes on, hopefully i will be getting better at writing it and filling in some spots. But i hope you enjoy this chapter!

Warnings: sort of?yandere!bts, mentions of saseangs

After news broke out that BTS would be in L.A all week due to their nominations in the American Music Awards and the concerts, practically everyone was talking about it and all three friends were buzzing at the fact that the tannies were in their city.

It was four days before the concert, and the girls were out shopping, having a bit of girl time before they each get busy with final exams coming up.

Jasmine’s scrolling through twitter when she sees that BTS are actually doing package deals for the concert and her eyes widen at the opportunity. She thinks for a second before turning toward her friends, “Did you guys want to meet them, like actually meet them? Because they’re also doing the packages for those who are vaccinated, they just announced it, and my dad could get them for us if they’re not sold out.”

Y/N stuttered in her steps and her shoulders tensed at the news.

Of course, she wanted to meet them, but at the same time, meeting them would mean confirming whether J-Hope was her soulmate or not, and honestly what would happen if he was? She knew if he wasn’t she would just go about her life the way she was, albeit a little disappointed.

However, she was more nervous if it was the opposite. If he was her soulmate, what did that mean for the both of them? He lives in Korea; her whole life is here, not to mention how young she really was. And come to think of it, even if it wasn’t J-Hope, her soulmate would still be from Korea. How would that even work?

Y/N hadn’t really thought much of it until now, when you meet your soulmate, aren’t you supposed to be together? If her soulmate lived across the world, would they move with her or would they want her to move with them?

Kristie interrupted her thoughts when she jumped excitedly, “Actually get to meet and speak to them? Of course, I want to!”

Y/N shook her head a little and nodded nonetheless, “They’re BTS, who wouldn’t want to meet them?”

Jasmine smiled at her friends’ excitement and ran off to phone her dad.

“So, are you excited?” Kristie teases, and Y/N shrugs, “It’s hard not be delulu about it, but I’m trying to remember that whatever happens, happens. It’d definitely be a huge deal if he was, but even if he’s not, that’s okay too.” Kristie nods at her friends’ words, “If it helps some, I think there’s a pretty big chance that he is, but we won’t know until...four days from now.”

Kristie had a strong feeling about J-Hope, and since finding her soulmate, you could say she just knew when people are meant to be, as they show the same signs she did before she found hers. All she ever wanted for her two friends is happiness, and she was determined on making sure they were, every single day. She was the oldest amongst the trio, born a few months before Y/N and Jasmine, with Jasmine being the youngest, so it came naturally to her to sort of play the big sister role in their lives.

Jasmine was much of the same, despite being the youngest, she loved to care for her friends and show her appreciation in any way she could. That’s why she asked if the packages were a good idea, she too had wanted Y/N to find her answer, and what better way than to meet him? Even if he wasn’t Y/N’s soulmate, they would be super grateful to get to talk to BTS and be able to hug them and just tell them how much they mean to the trio. It was going to be a win either way.

With that in mind, the girls were shopping for the rest of the day and ended with going home with more bags than they could carry.

When they reached their shared apartment, Jasmine told the girls that her dad was able to get three full VIP packages, and to celebrate, they bought some wine and listened to music as they sorted through what they had bought that day.

“I don’t know if I want to wear pink or purple to the concert.” Jasmine held up two shirts toward the girls, and as they all pondered over the two, Y/N felt a tug on her pinky, and she looked down to see it wriggling. It happened often, sometimes during class or grocery shopping, it wriggled a little bit, but not too hard. She wondered if they were exercising or something of the sort, and she felt her nose scrunch in disgust when she thought of her soulmate doing something that wasn’t PG-13.

After dinner, the trio went their separate ways and Y/N found herself lying in bed and thinking about the soulmate situation again. She hasn’t thought about it this much before, and she blames it on the concert coming up. She toys with the string around her pinky, swirling it around her wrist, and then back the other way. Her eyes follow it as it lines toward her door, but then disappears into thin air, the only time she will actually be able to see it and how long it is, is when she is in close proximity to her soulmate.

She wonders why the universe gave her a soulmate that lives across the world, and not just next door or something. It would have made things a lot easier, because now, here she is, in her bathtub, questioning whether a celebrity is her soulmate, like a freaking delulu.

She huffs at the incessant thoughts and changes her clothes before trying to fall asleep.

As soon as Y/N wakes up, she goes to the calendar on her desk and marks off the day, showing only today, and tomorrow left until the concert. Y/N and her friends haven’t been up to much lately, mostly getting outfits ready for the concert, and preparing for the exams that are coming up, but she couldn’t contain her excitement as each day passed.

The first concert was going to be held at the YouTube Theatre, and it’s a generally small building meaning the setting will be a little intimate, but the next day BTS will be performing at SoFi stadium, before going back to Korea. BTS had explained that to start off the two concerts, they wanted to be a little closer to ARMY, seeing as it’s been two years since they’ve seen them, which is why they chose the theatre, but to give other ARMY a chance, they will also be going to the stadium.

Seeing as the tickets weren’t as expensive at the theatre, she chose the first show and got three seats in the third row, a little bit to the right of the stage. Her nerves were through the roof since this would be the first time Y/N and her friends would be seeing BTS in person, ever. In all her years of being a fan, she’s not once seen them in real life.

Jasmine and Kristie were out with their lovers, having a bit of one-on-one time since they haven’t been able to in the past few days. Y/N walked out of her room and grabbed some juice from the fridge, pouring herself a glass and thinking about what her plans for the day were. She knew she had to continue studying but she also needed to eat, so with that thought, she moves back to her room to change and gathers her laptop, putting her textbooks into her bag before grabbing her apartment keys and heading out.

She opts for staying at a nearby café, seeing as it’s not a far walk, picking a table near the window and pulling out her books. She finds the café quiet, and it’s a perfect spot for her to focus without any distractions.

“America always has the best breakfast.” Jungkook speaks and his hyungs nod in agreement.

“So, did you guys want to do some shopping or just head back to the hotel?” Namjoon asks them and they all think about it

“Jin hyung and I will probably head back..” Yoongi informs, and Joon nods and looks toward the maknae line, knowing they’d like to walk around a little bit more, “I’ll stay with you guys.”

J-Hope nods as well, “Yeah, I’ll stay here too.”

All seven men part, and soon the five of them are walking around the area, bodyguards around them just in case, until Taehyung sees a nice little clothing store, “Can we go in here?”

As they’re all walking in, Jimin feels his pinky being tugged at and when he looks down, his eyes widen when he sees that the string has extended completely, allowing him to see where it goes. His line of vision follows the string, and he finds himself moving with it.

He’s quick on his feet, the possibility of finally meeting is soulmate, heavy on his mind.

J-Hope glances at a funky hat before turning to show Jimin with a smile, knowing he’d probably buy it, but frowns instantly when he notices he’s not with them.

“Where’s Jiminie?” He taps Joon on the shoulder, both men glance around and Namjoon immediately takes action upon not seeing him anywhere in the store, having two bodyguards follow him out the door. He has J-Hope stay with the maknae line and jogs out with the two men.

Jimin on the other hand is already half a block down, moving closer and closer, and he sees that his string has moved to the left, inside what looks like a café on the other side of the street, right across from him. Jimin looks and spots the crosswalk, and it’s a bit far, but nonetheless jogs toward it, anxiously waiting for the light to change.

“Jimin-ssi!” He hears and he turns to see one of his bodyguards jogging his way over, he sighs looks back at the café, about to start pleading that they allow him to cross, when he sees Namjoon with a slightly disappointed look in his eyes and he knows that he has no chance.

His shoulders sag in defeat and he walks up to his older member, ready to apologize and explain but Namjoon just wraps his arm around him and quietly mumbles, “Let’s go.”

The hyung line all gather around, with Jungkook and Taehyung sitting on the side, at the edge of Jin’s bed, and Jimin sitting on the couch, with his head down, playing with the fabric of his jeans.

“I just wanted to see if my soulmate was in there.” He whispers, and Yoongi is the first to speak, “Jimin-ssi, we all want to meet our soulmate someday, and we understand how excited you might have been. But you can’t just run off like that, especially in America, and especially without anybody with you. It’s dangerous.” Jimin nods at his words.

“We’re not mad, we were just worried, anything could have happened. You could have been mobbed, paparazzi could have spotted you, there might even be sasaengs around here.” J-Hope walks up and puts a hand on his younger’s back, “Just, next time be careful, and ask for someone to go with you.”

Jimin sniffs and nods once more, looking up at his hyungs, “I swear though I didn’t really mean to walk off, I just saw my string and followed it. I didn’t know how far I had gone until you called for me. I’m sorry.” He really didn’t mean to; he wasn’t aware of his actions, and he hoped his members would see that he genuinely didn’t mean to cause them any stress or worry.

All boys nod this time, and the older members, sit on the couches, Jin and Hobi sitting on each side of Jimin. “It’s alright now, as long as you’re safe.”

“You’ve been studying all morning, come have lunch with us.” Kristie’s voice comes through the phone, and Y/N shakes her head, “I can’t, I’m almost done with this textbook, I just need a few more notes. I’ll come to dinner anyways.” She hears mumbling on the other end until Kristie talks, “If you’re not coming to us, we’re coming to you.” Y/N furrows her eyebrows, “You don’t even know where I am.” This time, she hears Jasmine’s voice yell, “Snapchat bitch!”

Scoffing in disbelief, she hides her smile and rolls her eyes, “Fine, fine. See you soon,” She knows the other two are smirking at the fact they won, “See ya.”

Y/N looks at the time and her eyes widen when she realizes how long she’s been here, and as if on cue, her stomach rumbles, mentally thanking her friends for the phone call, knowing it’s best if she were to meet with her friends now. As she taps her pen against her table, she notices her pinky string was longer than it usually is, but when she follows the line, it’s fading away, and she freezes.

Her soulmate was close to her, and she didn’t even know, she scoffs at herself incredulously, so much for a meet cute, she couldn’t look up from her books for one second to check her surroundings.

Y/N begins to put her things away, keeping her laptop open for her music, and just as promised, her friends show up to the café hurriedly, “Oh my gosh, did you hear?” Jasmine whispered frantically, and Y/N shakes her head, “What?” her friend looks around before leaning in, “Not many people know, but BTS were shopping around here like fifteen minutes ago.” Y/N blinks, “How do you know that?” Jasmine shrugs, “Twitter.” All girls nod and Y/N debates on telling them about her string, but decides to keep it to herself for now, not wanting to get into a discussion of how a BTS member is her soulmate and possibly be labeled as a saseang in this café.

“Where should we eat then?” Jasmine asks, sipping on Y/N’s, now warm, juice. Y/N stares at her and playfully glares, “That’s my juice.”

“Hyung…” Jungkook murmurs from beside Jin, who looks at his dongsaeng in question, “Do you think I’ll ever have an experience like Jimin-hyung?” Jungkook is timid when asking his question, indicating that it’s been on his mind heavy, but too nervous to get the answer.

Jin sighs at his youngest member’s words, not wanting to hurt him but also wanting to tell him the truth,

“If I’m being honest, I don’t know. I don’t know if you have a soulmate tie, none of us do. Jimin can see his, which is why it’s easier for him to find his soulmate. But, even if you don’t ever find yours, you will find someone who will love you all the same. There’s a lot of people who haven’t found theirs, that have found love elsewhere, I’m sure the universe has something in store for you either way.”

Jungkook thinks over what Jin had told him, his brows furrowing in focus, but Jin can see tears gather in his eyes, pulling Jungkook in for a hug, “Chin up little one, you’ll be just fine.”

Yoongi walks into the living room to see his two members cuddled up, seeing tears on Jungkook’s cheeks, and he places a hand on his shoulder as he walks by to sit across from them, “What’s up?”

“Someone isn’t feeling too good about this soulmate thing.” Jin explains, Yoongi nods slowly, “Yah, Jungkook-ssi, why don’t you research what kind of different ties there are?”

Jungkook sniffs, “I tried that, I don’t have any of those ones, at least the common ones. Rare ties have a very little chance of developing if there’s none in your family, and mine all have common ties.”

“Don’t get discouraged, it’s also very rare to not have a tie, only 0.1% of the population don’t have one.” Yoongi tries, Jungkook’s eyes widen, and he bursts into tears, “That’s still 800,000 people, and I could be one of them.”

Both the older men wince at their mistake, and Jin continues to console him, “Shh, it’s okay, he’s not correct in that calculation...”

Jin shoots Yoongi a look that says, ‘look what you did,’ and Yoongi throws his head back and rubs at his face tiredly.

I FORGOT TO PUT IN THE MOST CRUCIAL PART OF NAMJOON"S TIE UGHHHH
