It's been a few days since Kiri's seizure, she was doing great with her recovery. She was sadden by the fact that she can never connect herself to the Metkayina's Spirit tree. Everyone was glad that she was okay and well. That morning you were helping your mother roll up the sleeping mat, then everyone heard the horn get blown. That was weird, then Tuk had been the first one to step out, followed by Jake and Neteyam, then you followed along with Ninat. You saw how the na'vi would jump out of their homes onto the water, some even made flips and such.

Then you all heard Tsireya from the distance. "The Tulkun have returned! Everybody! Our brothers and sisters have returned!" from the distance you saw how a group of Tulkun had been jumping out of the water to make themselves known. You also saw some na'vi some what chase them on their skimswims. Tuk went back inside to get Kiri, who wasn't really in the mood for anything but Tuk manage to get her sister to come out and see the Tulkun. Without thinking twice you, Kiri and Tuk decided to go see the Tulkun.

Rotxo had introduced you all to his spirit brother, you were taken on a ride on the tulkun's fin. You and Tuk on the top, while Kiri and Rotxo held onto the bottom of the fin. Then Ao'nung and Neteyam swam by with the ilus, waving at you all. You saw how some Metkayina reunited with their brothers and sisters, you even saw how some babies were hanging around a tulkun, as well as witnessing a family introduce their new born to a tulkun. It was nice seeing a moment like this, no one was fighting or anything. You even witness Ronal smile when she was with her spirit sister who had just given birth to a calf. Everyone was happy.

It has been raining all morning, it was odd, You had been with the usual group of kids when something had happened. Everyone has been called to go to the main marui in which all the meetings happen. That was when you had found out that the sky people had killed Roa. Ronal was in enrage and in pain, she had just come back from seen the corpse of her spirit sister and her now dead calf. Everyone was now enraged, the sky people had killed a tulkun and now they had to pay.

Jake warned them to tell the tulkun to leave or else more of them could die, but no one seemed to be listening. Everyone yelled and claimed that they will fight for their brothers and sisters. Until Jake showed them the tracker that was on Roa. He again warned the to tell the tulkun to leave, this time they listened, some left to go warn the Tulkun.

You and Neteyam followed Lo'ak who had sneaked away from the crowd. You spotted him putting a saddle on an ilu, he was probably on his way to warn Payakan. Neteyam wanted to stop him but Lo'ak insisted on telling the tulkun who had become his brother. They had a small argument, but when Tsireya, Ao'nung and Rotxo had approached, Lo'ak did not listen and went into the water. You called out to him but no, he was going to Payakan.

Now you all jumped into the water and got on a ilu, chasing after Lo'ak. Again, you yelled for him but nothing. Then Kiri and Tuk joined you all into chasing after Lo'ak, until you saw him approach Payakan, who had a tracker. Not only that but the Sky People's ship was coming near. Neteyam had told Lo'ak to call his dad, and tell him what was happening.

Ninat and Neytiri had been asking around on where you all had gone, even asking the kid who had been around. He mentioned that you all went outside the reef. Then Jake received Lo'ak call. Ninat and Neytiri quickly put on their own ear piece to listen, when Jake asked who was with Lo'ak, he said that it was all of you together, you were helping a tulkun that had been under attack. When Neytiri and Ninat heard that you were all together, they had a look of horror, Jake had instructed them to stand down and to hurry back.

You were all struggling to get the tracker of Payakan, everyone did what they could but nothing, until Neteyam had the idea to tie a rope on the tracker and use the ilu to get it off. You were panicking seen how the ship was getting closer. The finally the tracker came off, Neteyam instructed you all to go while he got rid of the tracker. Back on the ilus, you were all hiding in some plants, hoping that you weren't spotted, then some machines began to drop into the water and spotted you all. You all tried to get away as fast as you could, but when you saw Tuk let of Kiri, you went back to try and get her.

When you manage to get a hold of her, you let the ilu go so that they thought that you had gone with it. Then you swam to a plant with an opening on the top, you held Tuk's hand and manage to pull her to the surface first then yourself. You were both taking a breath for a moment, then some came up causing Tuk to scream, but it was Lo'ak who asked if you were all okay. Then came Tsireya.

After that small breather, you all went back under water to swim back to the village. But then a next had surrounded you, Tuk and Tsirerya. You tried to get away but it was no use, Lo'ak got his knife to try and cut you all out, but then two ikran flown into the water and got a hold of the net. Lo'ak held tightly onto the net and continued to hold onto it as you were all taken out of the surface.

The Ikran had flown you to the ship and just dropped you all their. Lo'ak held his knife up to one of the recoms who had warned him to drop the knife, he didn't, instead he tried to attack but got put on the ground and get held there. You crawled out of the net, and attempted to run to Lo'ak but got stopped by one of the recoms who had been near by. You tried fighting back against him, but he was much stronger and held you down. Tsireya had also tried to fight off one of them and so did Tuk, but no. Spider ran outside and tried to plea with them to not hurt you all, but they didn't listen.

You heard one of the recoms yell to take you away, you then were dragged along with Spider inside the ship. You were struggling with them, not wanting to go but you were forced. Your wirsts have been tied together so that you didn't try anything. Then they left you with Spider. He told you that everything was going to be okay and that they'll figure out what to do.

Then something had made the ship to move violently, turns out Payakan had manage to jump onto the ship somehow. Next thing you knew you saw how Spider got a fire extinguisher and use it as a weapon to hit some guy, then he proceeded to hit the metal on some controllers. People had gathered around him to try and take him, Spider had basically made the ship to sink.

Everyone had to evacuate or else you'd all drown, you followed close behind Spider, you didn't want to be separated him him since you haven't seen him in month. Next thing you knew, both Neteyam and Lo'ak came down and attack the sky people who were guiding out. Once that was done, you all had to move fast, there was still people around that might try and kill you all.

You found a way out, which was basically the only way out, but it wasn't going to be easy. You were getting shot at, Neteyam took the gun from Lo'ak and shot back at who was shooting towards you. He instructed for Lo'ak and Spider to go first, when his gun ran out of bullets, he got a hold of your hand and jumped into the water. You all swam away to not be spotted, the whole time you were struggling to swim. You felt a pain in your abdomen, it hurt so bad but you forced yourself to swim. Once away from the danger, both Spider and Lo'ak had gave each other a high five, then Neteyam noticed you struggling to stay up.

"Y/n? What's wrong?" he asked, worriedly. "I don't know.." you cried out in pain, then Neteyam noticed the water around you had began to change into a red. "Oh no, y/n's been hit!" Neteyam yelled towards the boys, then they looked over at you and Neteyam. You brought your hand out in front of you and saw how your hand had a bit of red. "Oh god!" Lo'ak cried out. Everyone was panicking. Then Tsireya had approached you all with her ilu. "What's wrong?" she asked. "Y/n got shot!" Lo'ak informed her. Tsireya got off the ilu and let Neteyam get on then he pulled you on the back. You continued to hold your wound in pain.

They manage to move you out of the ship. Their was a rock near by it was big enough for all of you to stand on. Neteyam got off the ilu and with the help of everyone got you off and tried to get you on the rock. Jake had approached the group that was struggling to get you on the rock. "Dad! It's y/n!" Lo'ak yelled out, Jake then got close to them and helped you get on the rock. Now on the rock, you were laid down, you continued to hold onto your wound with both hands. "Let me see y/n" Jake asked, you slowly removed your hands from your injury. It was bad, you needed medical attention immediately, if it doesn't get treated any longer, you could suffer the same consequences he did as a human. "Neteyam, Tsireya, take y/n back to the village, now!" Jake instruted them.

Without second thoughts, Neteyam and Tsireya carried you back on the ilu, Neteyam got on first, then you in the middle and then Tsireya. They tried to get the ilu to go as fast as he could back to the village. Tsireya had been helping you keep pressure on the wound. After a little while longer, you got to the village. The warriors were at the village, making sure that the Sky People didn't get to the village and some were injured and getting treated by the healers. Ronal had been running around, asking where Tsireya was, then she spotted you all approaching. Neteyam got off the ilu and picked you up bridal style. You were looking pale, must be due to the blood lose.

Tsireya ran towards her mother in a panic. "Mother! It's y/n!" she yelled and got to her. Ronal then saw you in Neteyam's arms, looking really pale and holding onto your wound weakly. "Follow me!" she instructed, Neteyam and Tsireya followed the Tsahik along with other healers to her marui, Neteyam had been keeping you to stay awake and to not close your eyes. When at the marui, you were placed on the mat by one of the women while Ronal got her tools ready. She instructed Tsireya to go tend to the others who were wounded while Neteyam stayed.

Ninat had heard about your arrival, but when she heard about your injury she ran towards the Tsahik's marui to see you. Ronal saw Ninat running in a panic "hold her back!" she yelled, as she got to work with you fast. Neteyam then got on her way and hugged Ninat. "Y/n!" she yelled in tears, Neteyam continued to hold her back as she struggled to get away from him. "Please! Ronal and others are taking care of her!" Neteyam mentioned, still holding Ninat away from you and Ronal. "I want to see my child!" she cried out more, really wanting to see you, but to no avail. Neteyam had pulled her a bit further. "Please Ninat, she is doing everything she can" he consoled to the weeping woman. Ninat had stopped and hugged Neteyam, now in tears. Worried that her child could possible die or suffer a bad injury.

Hours had passed, Ninat and Neteyam were still waiting outside the Marui was the women worked on getting you healed, both worried for you and those who were still out there. They watched as the women did everything that they could, they had to come in and out to exchange the now bloodied water. They had stepped out so many times, you must have lost a lot of blood. Ninat had been prying to Eywa to not take you away so soon, the thought of it just hurt her.

Then the rest of the family had been back and had approached them. "How is y/n?" Jake asked, Ninat had dried tears in her eyes and her voice was raspy. "We haven't been told anything." She cried out again. Everyone watch the mother weep for her child, it hurt so bad. Neytiri had approached Ninat and pulled her into a hug, allowing her to cry on her shoulder. Everyone was silent, the only sounds that were heard were of Ninat's sobs.

Another few hours had passed, it was already dark, but the family continued to stand outside the marui. Then the women that helped Ronal stepped out of the marui, then they bowed to the Tsahik who had thanked them and they left with some things. Ninat saw Ronal and quickly went over to her. "How is she? How is y/n" she asked desperately Tsahik. Ronal had dried blood on both her hand and skirt. "Y/n is alright, she lost a lot of blood, but she is strong. It was not her time yet." She said, this made everyone sigh in relief, specially Ninat. "May I see her?" she asked. "Of course." Ronal got out of the way to allow Ninat to enter.

Ninat basically ran in the marui and knelt down in next to you. She saw the small stitches. "My child" Ninat whispered, seen your eyes slowly open. "Mama?" you whimpered out, Ninat took your hand onto hers and placed it on her cheek. "I'm right here my child, thank the Great Mother you're okay" she said, tears still streaming down her eyes, happy that you were okay. She gave the back of your hand a small kiss. "I'm glad to see you mama" you said sending her a small smile. "I'm also glad to see you my child." She said smiling back at you.

Masterlist

CHAPTER 1

Y/N POV

Nine. This is the ninth shelter I've been sent to from the age of 7 to the age of 21. My life had been good up until that point. My mom gave birth to me on a farm which we lived on. For seven splendid years I played, ate, and lived with other farm type hybrids.

That all ended when the farm burnt down. Not many of us survived, and we suspected it was the result of a hate crime against our kind. My whole life, my mom, was ripped away from me because of the evil people that shattered my whole world.

So here I am in my 9th shelter. I've been adopted before but they never wanted to keep me when they realize how much I eat. It's not like it's my fault though, my DNA dictates me to constantly be munching on something. I can't help that I'm a cow…

Jimin's POV

Why is it so hard to go inside? I glanced at my watch and notice I've been standing outside of the hybrid shelter for 15 minutes. I need to go inside before someone reports me for standing out here so long. I take another deep breath, shake out my nerves, and open the door to step inside.

[24 hours earlier]

“Taeeeeee…” I whine into my couch cushion.

“Waaahhh, Jiminie?” Tae asks on the other side of his phone.

“I'm so nervous! What if he or she doesn't like me and wants to leave??” I know Tae can probably could practically hear how hard I was pouting.

“That's nonsense! Any hybrid would feel so lucky to have you as his or her owner. Don't worry so much.” There's a reason why Tae is my best friend; he knows how to calm me down.

“I love you, Tae!” I cry into the receiver.

“I love you too, you big softie. Now go get ready for your new friend already!” Tae laughs into the phone before hanging up on a very nervous Jimin.

[Present day]

I take in the surroundings of the shelter as I walk inside. It seems pleasant enough; the walls are painted in a pretty sunshine yellow color and it smells sweet like vanilla.

I'm greeted by bubbly Golden retriever hybrid at the front desk, and he seems to help my nerves settled down quite a bit. “Hello, welcome to Safe Haven Hybrid Sanctuary! My name is Hoseok, how may I help you?”

I smile up at the energetic pup. “Hi, I'm looking to adopt.”

The pup’s ears perk up. “That's fantastic to hear Mr…” he says waiting for my name.

“Jimin. My name is Park Jimin.” I shuffle towards the desk where Hoseok is sifting through a filing cabinet.

“Mr. Park, before I show you around, I need you to fill out some paperwork.”

“Of course,” Hoseok hands me a clipboard full of various papers. No more than 15 minutes later Hoseok is leading me to where the hybrids live. 

A/N: Hi! This is the first chapter. Let me know what you think!

“Today is the day!”

You flinched and covered yourself, trying to be as small as possible on the couch, when Jin nearly barged into Taehyung’s apartment. You had forgotten how loud he could get sometimes and since you were focused on something else you had missed his entrance.

“The day for what?” Taehyung sounded as calm as always, almost bored and not bothered.

“I really love to make breakfast for you every single day and I won’t stop that”, he assured you quickly, sensing your confusion, “but I am concerned about the take out and instant food you get to eat for lunch and dinner the past few weeks.”

You turned to Taehyung, hearing an amused scoff coming from him. “I learned to make some dishes so we would eat differently every now and then”, he answered, flipping a page of a magazine he read. You mused he didn’t even look up to Jin while talking to him.

“I don’t mind the food I eat.” You mentioned as soon as you sensed Jin getting irritated. “It’s more delicious than the food from the shelter.”

“Of course they are!”

You flinched once more at his harsh tone, fearing you said something wrong just now. Before you could apologize, you felt Taehyung set the magazine aside and place a warm hand on your back.

“Hyung.” He said warningly, almost with a threatening growl in his tone.

Jin sighed and ran his hands through his hair in desperation. “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to lash out.” Another sigh escaped his lips. “You couldn’t know but I am blaming Taehyung! Fast food, take out and instant food are supposed to taste good because they have a lot of chemicals and other stuff added, which aren’t very healthy.”

You nodded slowly in understanding. “But your food tastes better. Do you add chemicals to make it taste better?”

Jin walked over to you and plopped down on the couch as well. “No, I create dishes with fresh ingredients. That’s why it needs to be eaten immediately for the best taste experience. I promise that apple risoto wouldn’t have tasted so amazing a day later.”

“Really?” You couldn’t believe his words, remembering almost vividly the taste from your first real meal on your tongue.

“So today is the day because you’re going to change that?” Taehyung asked. He had relaxed again since you felt at ease once more.

Ever since the visit at Hoseok’s clinic he couldn’t shake the pictures of your x-rays from his thoughts. He didn’t bring it up again as he didn’t want to upset you. Taehyung was able to put the pieces together.

Especially after he had sat down with Hoseok and spoke about the results and the files his hyung had read through.

They never mentioned it openly, covering most injuries with accidents of some sort but Namjoon had overheard them, since Taehyung had insisted to stay in the group apartment, hoping you wouldn’t hear them discuss your files and results.

Namjoon had grabbed a cup of coffee, ignoring that it was already late at night, and had sat down next to them, scanning Hoseok’s notes and the x-rays. Taehyung had never seen his expression change from neutral so quickly to dark. 

“Those are typical injuries for victims of abuse.” He had growled lowly. “I’ve seen pictures like this in a lot of cases I had to study.”

Taehyung had tensed, hearing his hyung’s words. Even though he had a feeling something like this might have happened to you, it was different to get it confirmed. 

Hoseok had looked just as grim, nodding along to Namjoon’s words, since he could only agree to his statements. “Repeatedly. Those are injuries Y/N must have gotten over years. I can’t say if Y/N always got returned because her previous owner didn’t pass the control visit or if something else was the issue.”

“Control visits? You really think this shelter is doing something like this? Y/N is living with us for a while now and they didn’t even call to check on her.” Taehyung had scoffed. “You’ve seen that shelter. It felt more like a prison than anything else.”

Reluctantly Hoseok had to agree, resulting in Namjoon to get up again. “I’m gonna investigate that shelter. Should be great practice.” He had grinned despite his grim aura and left.

When Taehyung had decided to call it nights and was about to leave for his own apartment, Hoseok had stopped him with a worried expression.

“The abuse is rooted deep inside of Y/N. We have to be extra careful unless we want her to panic again.”

“I know.”

“She needs to talk about it one day. Try to ease her into it. Y/N trusts you.”

Taehyung had nodded at that time but these words spooked in his mind continuously. How could someone possibly ease a victim into talking about their abuse.

“So, Taehyung? What do you say?”

Confused, he shook his head slightly and stared with an empty expression at Jin, who waited patiently for an answer. “What?”

“Jin told me he wanted to check your kitchen”, you whispered quickly.

“For what?”

“I need to see what you have and what you might need before I start teaching Y/N how to cook.”

“Ah”, Taehyung nodded, “sure, you can check our kitchen.”

“Can I come with you?” You asked hesitantly. The prospect Jin was still willing to teach you made you somewhat giddy and eager to start learning.

Over the weeks you had almost forgotten that he wanted to teach you despite your blindness. Even if you would have remembered it, you would have been too shy or nervous to bring it up again.

“Of course!” Jin told you enthusiastically and literally jumped up, rushing to the kitchen. “I wanted to check what kind of utensils the both of you have in your kitchen first. I can explain the things briefly to you but I think it’s best to save the big explanations for later when we actually start cooking.”

You smiled brightly, hearing Jin this excited. His enthusiasm basically pulled you with him, feeling just as excited as him. You grabbed Taehyung’s hand, knowing instinctively where it was next to you, and pulled him with you towards the kitchen as well.

Taehyung watched you with adoration in his eyes. He would do anything to keep that smile on your lips. Nothing but your happiness felt important to him these days. And if listening to Jin insult Taehyung’s kitchen equipment made you happy, he would easily endure it.

“What is that?”

“What?” Taehyung and you both exclaimed at the same time. Though yours was out of curiosity while Taehyung sounded more like he tried to defend himself.

“Do you even have any fresh ingredients? I can’t believe you only have some milk inside of your fridge.” Jin said outraged, picking up the carton of milk and slightly sniffing at it. “At least the milk isn’t spoiled.” He closed the fridge again and opened the freezer.

You felt the short gush of cold brushing over your bare arms and shivered involuntarily.

Taehyung stepped behind you and immediately started to rub over your arms, warming you up again, while he watched Jin pull different frozen pizzas out of the cold.

“Have you guys been eating anything else?! You’re worse than Jungkook! I can’t believe it.” Jin slammed the freezer shut again and turned to the pantry.  “Instant noodles, instant noodles, instant noodles, canned soup and more instant noodles.”

You couldn’t help yourself but giggle a little, hearing Jin’s tone getting continuously more desperate.

He clicked his tongue and turned around to Taehyung and you, stemming his hands in his hips. “Both of you get dressed! We’re going grocery shopping right now. And don’t even think about arguing with me, Taehyung.”

Said man just shrugged with his shoulders before he guided you to the hallway and helped you into your jacket.

“Is grocery shopping like the shopping we did with Jimin?” You asked curiously while you slipped into your favourite pair of shoes - the one Taehyung had gifted you.

“Not exactly”, Taehyung answered, thinking deeply how he could explain grocery shopping to you. “There might be a few similarities but I think it’s very different to shopping with Jimin. Less stressful, I’d say.”

You giggled again, hiding your smile behind your hand. “I didn’t think it was stressful with Jimin.”

“Yeah, this time.”

Taehyung didn’t comment on it further. Instead he guided you out of the apartment and towards the elevators with Jin, who had shortly stopped at the other apartment to grab his keys and own jacket.

Not even twenty minutes later Jin had parked in a spacious parking lot. As soon as you opened the door and got out of the car you heard several other cars slowly driving around, people chatting with each other and a few times some sort of screeching.

“Oh I hope we don’t get stuck with a shopping cart like that.” Jin mentioned, scrunching up his face slightly in repulsion. “I hate when the wheels make those obnoxious sounds or don’t work like the other three wheels on the cart.”

Your face brightened in realisation. You were happy to know what the screeching had caused and quickly agreed with Jin.

“I’ll get us a good shopping cart and meet you two at the entrance.”

You heard Jin’s steps moving away from you while Taehyung’s stepped closer to you again. Without hesitation you linked your hand with his once again, feeling immediately safer than before.

While Taehyung guided you through the parking cars you tried to get a picture of your surroundings. Wind brushed over your face and through your hairs, making you pin your ears against your head. 

“Everything alright?” Taehyung leaned close to you, having immediately noticed how your ears had changed positions.

“The wind is tickling my ears.”

For a moment Taehyung stayed silent, just staring at you. Stunned. His facade quickly cracked though and he broke into a full laugh, desperately holding his stomach. “This is the cutest thing I heard all day!” Taehyung gasped between his laughter.

A small pout formed on your lips as you tried to hide your embarrassment. Consciously you placed your free hand on top of your ears.

Taehyung calmed down again and grabbed your other hand as well, pulling it down and pulling you towards a wind-protected area. “It’s okay, you’re fine, little one. I just got worried when I saw how you pressed your ears against your skull and am very relieved to know it was nothing too bad.”

You relaxed again, a small smile appearing on your lips. Before you could say anything else, Jin met with you again. Thankfully he found a shopping cart that didn’t screech with every push forward.

“Are you ready for your very first grocery shopping trip?”

You nodded, already feeling the excitement again. You felt Jin taking one of your hands and placing it on the cold metal of the shopping cart. 

“Like that I can guide you through the aisles and you won’t get lost.” He slowly moved the cart forward and you silently followed the pull, walking next to the cart.

“I could easily guide Y/N through the supermarket as well.” Taehyung grumbled and tightened his grip slightly around your hand, insisting on still walking next to you.

“I’m going to send you several times to get stuff!” Jin chided and clicked with his tongue again. “We need a lot of things and I want this trip to be as short as possible.”

“Don’t you like grocery shopping?”

Jin shook his head before he reminded himself to answer you. “No, the opposite actually. Though I do prefer real farmer markets sometimes.”

“Then why do you want to make this short?”

“Because it’s going to overwhelm you. Dozens of people hurrying through the aisles, kids screaming, parents shouting, babies crying. You’ll probably hear the ping of the checkstand even when we’re at the opposite end. You’re going to hear the loud machines that cool down the food. And that is only one sense. You have four others.”

You swallowed, feeling a lump of nervousness forming in your throat. This description of a supermarket made grocery shopping somehow ten times scarier.

“Three others and don’t frighten her”, Taehyung growled and squeezed your hand reassuringly, “you did perfect in a whole shopping mall. We do it like last time, okay little one? Let’s walk into the market and step aside so you can adjust to all the impressions and influences.”

Once again you nodded, feeling reassured with Taehyung’s words. You were thankful for his input since it seemed he just knew what to say to make you feel at ease.

“Sorry, I didn’t mean to frighten you, Y/N.” Jin immediately apologized to you. “I just wanted to warn you because I thought it could be a little much at once.”

You smiled gently and nodded. “Thank you for your consideration. I think it will help me when Taehyung pulls me aside until I get used to everything and am able to blend out a few sounds or scents.”

“Then we will do exactly that.”

With that Jin passed the entrance doors and walked with Taehyung and you into the supermarket. Just like they said you felt overwhelmed with all the sounds basically hailing down on you. It took you some time to sort all the sounds, your ears twisting and turning without pausing on your head.

Once you were able to ignore most of the sounds your body noticed all the different scents. Another few minutes passed until you finally gave the guys a nod and a hesitant smile. You were good to go.

“Okay, I think the most important part during grocery shopping are the fresh ingredients. There is a lot to consider before buying them, so we should start there.” Jin proposed and shove the shopping cart through some aisle until he reached the area he wanted to be at. 

As you focused on Jin you heard him step away from the shopping cart once he parked it somewhere. You nervously clenched your fingers around the metal that had slowly turned warm from your own fingers.

“Taehyung, Y/N, come on over!” Jin called out.

“What about the cart?” You whispered, not loosening your grip around the metal.

“It’s fine. We get back to it soon enough.”

You swallowed again and took a deep breath before you let go of the cart and quickly clinged closer to Taehyung.

As soon as the both of you stepped next to Jin he already started to talk. “Normally the first step to choose fresh ingredients would be the look but for you we will just skip that. Y/N, please lean a little forward. With your enhanced senses you might be able to pick up what fruit we’re currently standing in front of.”

You did as told and leaned down slightly, sniffing carefully the air. Your face brightened immediately when you recognised the scent. “Apples!” You exclaimed excitedly.

“Perfect”, Jin agreed with a gentle smile. “I’m curious how good your senses are. While standing like this and smelling the air or apples to be more specific, can you pinpoint the best apples just from the scent?”

“I don’t know”, you whispered and tightened your hold on Taehyung.

“You can try it, if you want to. If you can’t choose the best apple just from the scent, it’s fine as well.” 

“Exactly, we still have the sense of touch to make absolutely sure we chose a good apple.” Jin supported Taehyung’s words.

You nodded and took another deep breath before you leaned back over the apples and tried to differentiate the scents of each single fruit. At first you struggled a little, getting distracted every now and then or another richer or riper scent overlapped the one you had followed.

Frustrated, your jaw tensed and you grind your teeth, exhaling several times through your mouth. 

“You don’t have to find a good apple just by scent.”

“Psht!” You quietly snapped at Jin, ignoring the amused chuckle from Taehyung, while you focused on the apples again. 

“Am I allowed to touch them?” You asked after a while.

“Yes.”

You let one hand go from Taehyung and hovered with it over the apples. Only your fingertips touched the fruits, though they barely brushed the skin of the apples. Your hand wandered over the apples until you found the one you had pinpointed with your sense of smell.

“This one!” You grabbed it and held it in front of you triumphantly.

“How does it feel? Soft, hard, something in between?” Jin asked and inspected the apple from where he stood.

“I wouldn’t call it soft or hard. Maybe firm?”

“What Jin hyung actually means is if you’re feeling any pressure marks on the skin of the apple.”

You shook your head. “No, none.”

“Then you found the perfect apple, I guess.” Jin laughed and grabbed a few more before he moved on.

Taehyung automatically guided you to follow Jin, smiling in amusement since you still held that apple in your hand and basically clutched it against your chest.

“The good thing in this supermarket is that you’re allowed to touch most of the fruits and vegetables. It’s perfect for you to get a feel of the different foods and choose the best ones.” Jin explained and grabbed something big, according to the little oof sound he made. “This watermelon for example. You can’t really determine the ripeness through the colour alone. Instead you need to knock on it.” Jin demonstrated what he meant, knocking with two fingers against the melon.

A deep and hollow sound reached your ears, making you curious what this meant.

“Ah, this sounds perfect. That’s exactly the sound we’re searching for.”

Every time Jin explained or taught you something new, you made small mental notes, hoping to remind all the information for the next time you would go grocery shopping.

Jin guided you through the whole supermarket and told you many different things or stuff he thought was good to know in general. Every now and then he stopped and asked you, if you were still good to go, glancing to Taehyung to confirm your smiled answers every time.

You have now idea how long you have been inside the supermarket but once all of you stepped outside of the building again, it felt as if a huge pressure had been lifted from your shoulders.

Taehyung immediately noticed the change and squeezed your hand. “A bit too much, huh?”

“Did I overwhelm you?”

You shook your head quickly. “No, I just didn’t like being near the checkstands. That beeping sound is really irritating and hard to ignore.”

“Understandable”, Jin agreed, “even I get annoyed from it sometimes.”

Taehyung hummed, observing your profile, while you walked over the parking lot towards the car. “I think we should just get home, place the ingredients into the fridge or freezer and call it a day.”

Jin wanted to protest but closed his mouth as soon as he saw the warning glare from the younger man.

“The next time you’re free, hyung. We can start a first cooking lesson then.”

“You’re probably right. That reminds me, when do you need to return to work, Taehyung?”
