p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspan... You've already named her? Taehyung, you can't be serious…" Jin sighed as he ran his fingers through his hair, his eyes shut tightly as he tried to figure out what to say, "You don't name them if you don't plan on keeping them, Tae… You're just going to get attached."/span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanWhether I give them names or not, I'm going to get attached. The name has nothing to do with it. I'm serious though; they need a place to stay until we find them homes. Together. They can't be separated." Taehyung replied seriously as he sat across from Jin on the couch, practically giving him the puppy eyes to try and convince him to allow them to stay./span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanI think it's a brilliant idea! I've never had pets before, so even just a few weeks is fine by me." Jungkook said excitedly as he remained seated beside the kennel. In his arms he held a white Korean Jindo puppy that kept trying to jump out of his arms to explore the house, "Hold on a sec; we have to stay here for the meeting. It's about you, you know." he laughed as he avoided the puppy's attempts to lick his face./span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspan... I can't believe your mother thought you would be interested because of the puppy's breed. I'm pretty sure she could have just said 'puppy' and you still would have brought it here." Namjoon commented as he watched Jungkook play with the puppy, "Are you really wanting to name the cat Sagwa? How did you even come up with that from the top of your head?"/span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanDon't you know Sagwa? She's the main cat in that television show 'Sagwa The Chinese Siamese Cat'. This kitten looks really similar to her. Do you know what kind of cat she is?" Jimin asked as he reached over to pet the kitten's head. The seven week old kitten was climbing up Yoongi's hoodie, searching for a warm and comfortable spot to settle down in. As soon as she found a space between the base of his neck and his hood's collar, she lay herself down and curled up./span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanMy mom said she's a Himalayan cat. Apparently they only recently started the weaning process, so she's not yet used to dry food. I've got the formula and cat food in the car." Taehyung remarked./span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;"Yoongi sat still as much as possible once she placed herself on his neck. He expected her to be playful and hyper like the puppy was, but she seemed to be ready for a nap; he could definitely relate… "Alright, alright… If we're going to take them in, you have to agree to help us all put up signs for them. You know we really don't have the time to take care of them, especially a dog."/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanYeah, I know but at least for now, we can work it around our schedules. Our classes are different, so we can schedule his walks around all that. We can start putting up signs next week since it's Thanksgiving break." Taehyung stated, waiting for everyone to agree to it. He really wanted to keep them for a little while…/span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspan... So do you have a name for the puppy yet?" Hoseok asked. He sat down beside Jungkook and began playing with the dog as well, amazed by how fluffy and white he was. He was definitely going to shed a lot, but he didn't mind that. He was just happy they could have animals in the house for now!/span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanTae hasn't thought that far. Sagwa was only given a name because she's secretly the star of a TV show, but we'll find a name for him soon enough." Jimin laughed a bit as he checked to see how the kitten was doing; she was already fast asleep!/span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanOkay. So everyone's agreed that we'll take them in ONLY for a couple of weeks until they're adopted right? We need to be clear on this. They need to be somewhere they are taken care of." Jin wanted what was best for them, and even though he liked the animals just as much as the others, he had to draw the line somewhere. Once he received a nod from everyone, he stood and gestured for Taehyung to follow him back to the car to get the animals' food while the others were left with the animals to discuss amongst themselves./span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanShould we try picking a name for him right now?" Jungkook asked as he handed the puppy over to Hoseok for him to hold./span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanI think we should wait a day or two to see what his personality is like. It's like when some people call their dogs Angel when they're actually demons." Namjoon remarked with a laugh as he stood from his spot on the couch to join them with the puppy. He really wondered how this whole situation was going to work out…/span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspan... Hyung… I'm going to murder Tae…" Yoongi mumbled as he shifted in his bed and lifted his pillow and placed it over his head to cover his ears to drown out the puppy's whining that came from right outside their door. However, as he shifted around in his bed, a squeak came from the foot of his bed as soon as he felt something furry underneath his leg, and he immediately jumped and scrambled out of bed, taking the covers with him, "W-What the hell?!"/span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanWhat, what is it?! Are you okay?" Jin asked immediately, sitting up to see what was going on./span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;"Yoongi released a heavy sigh once he saw the kitten's furry, dark figure clumsily walking towards the edge of the bed. "It's… It's just Sagwa. How in the world did she get in here…?" He reached over and carefully picked her up in his arms so she wouldn't fall off the bed./span/p
p style="text-indent: .5in; margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanMaybe she snuck in before you closed the door. Either way, that's probably why the dog hasn't stopped whining. Though, I thought the dog was supposed to stay with Namjoon?" Jin asked as he stood up to check on a few things. The master bedroom's door had to be kept shut because of Jungkook's injuries, so Namjoon and Hoseok agreed to allow the dog in their room. He paused at Yoongi's side to stroke the kitten's head, "Poor Sagwa-yah… Mean old Yoongi is already out to crush you." he joked, only to receive a nudge from Yoongi. It was too dark for him to see the glare that Yoongi also gave him./span/span/span/p
p style="text-indent: .5in; margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanShe wasn't even supposed to be in here; how is it my fault that she almost got crushed?" Yoongi responded bitterly as he followed Jin out into the hallway where the puppy greeted them with a wagging tail. The puppy finally stopped making so much noise once he saw the two of them, and he trotted alongside Jin's feet as he made his way to Namjoon's room, finding that the door was left open. "Namjoon, Hoseok. Did you guys purposely leave the door open?" Jin asked after knocking on the door to announce his presence. All of them had only gone to bed 10 minutes before, and the fact that Namjoon wasn't snoring was a good indication that they were still awake./span/span/span/p
p style="text-indent: .5in; margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;"Namjoon sat up and rubbed his head as he answered the question, "Yeah, we had it closed, but he kept pawing at the door and whining, and we thought it was because Sagwa isn't in here… She was supposed to be, but I guess she rushed out before we got the door closed."/span/p
p style="text-indent: .5in; margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanYeah, Yoongi almost squished her." Jin laughed a bit as he gestured for Yoongi to bring the kitten into the room, "Well, hopefully that solves the problem. He seems pleased to see her at least."/span/span/span/p
p style="text-indent: .5in; margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanHey, cut it out, it's bedtime." Yoongi scolded Sagwa as he tried to pull her away from him. Her claws were stuck in his shirt and once he freed one of her paws, she proceeded to paw and nibble at his hand as he tried to free her other one. "Hey, you think I'm joking, but I'm not. You're taking away my sleep."/span/span/span/p
p style="text-indent: .5in; margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanShe's a cat, Yoongi; it's not like she can help that she's nocturnal." Hoseok laughed as he watched his hyung struggle with her. He had sat up as well to see what was going on. As soon as she was pulled away from Yoongi's body, she meowed until she was finally placed down on Hoseok's bed. The puppy excitedly tried to jump onto the bed as well, but he fell backwards once he made impact with the furniture. His legs weren't quite long enough to jump up yet, which left all of them laughing./span/span/span/p
p style="text-indent: .5in; margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanGeez, don't you see that it's a bit big for you? Come on, I'll get you up." Jin said as he bent down to pick him up and placed him on the bed as well. The puppy eagerly jumped out of Jin's arms to greet his friend and immediately lay down beside her, allowing her to climb on top of him and bite his neck. As she continued to play, he finally began to fight back and tugged at her ear to continue the friendly brawl./span/span/span/p
p style="text-indent: .5in; margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspan... Don't you think he's being too rough with her? She's only half his size." Yoongi complained as he watched the two of them wrestle. He had never seen a cat and dog get along this well, so he was worried that one of them was going to go a bit too far, mainly the puppy./span/span/span/p
p style="text-indent: .5in; margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanShe'll be okay; she's the one who instigated it, you know. Besides, they're tougher than they look." Hoseok chuckled./span/span/span/p
p style="text-indent: .5in; margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanYou guys have the litter and water in here, right?" Jin asked as his eyes searched for the two necessities along the edges of the room; the light from the hallway wasn't enough to illuminate the entire room…/span/span/span/p
p style="text-indent: .5in; margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;"Namjoon laughed a little, "Funny thing, actually… Apparently Sagwa isn't litter trained. Taehyung explained to us that her owner couldn't handle cat litter? Or maybe couldn't afford it? I don't know. Either way, The mother cat and all of the kittens were taken outside to use the bathroom, you know, like dogs do. He said the mother was leash trained. The owner told Tae and his mom that the kitten and puppy both know to go to the door to let us know they have to go." he said with a shrug. He had never seen a cat on a leash, but if that was how she was being trained, no point in changing it./span/p
p style="text-indent: .5in; margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspan... You mean she's going to be leash trained like a dog?" Yoongi scratched the back of his head, "Okay then… that's… a little weird. But I guess it's less work for us. Do we have food for them in the morning?"/span/span/span/p
p style="text-indent: .5in; margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanYeah, Taehyung brought some. The puppy is able to eat hard food now, but Sagwa is still transitioning from formula to soft food. She still needs to be bottle fed, but we'll have to wean her from it. She sh- hey, whoa watch it guys!" he warned them as he reached over and picked the puppy up to bring it into his lap, knowing the kitten would follow. They had gotten way too close to the edge of the bed, and he was worried they would fall off if they continued to play like they were. He watched as Sagwa tried to run towards him, and he laughed as she lost balance and fell over. "They are so cute and fluffy! Hey, Yoongi hyung, Namjoon, look! You think he'll make the rapper line one day?" he asked as he lifted the puppy up for them to look at his face just as he sneezed, "Oh, hey, Gesundheit little guy."/span/span/span/p
p style="text-indent: .5in; margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;"Namjoon chuckled, "You know what, maybe he will. He might even replace you." he teased as he laughed with the others, "Alright, let's get to sleep; hopefully he won't be so noisy now that she's in here. See you guys in the morning." he waved to Yoongi and Jin./span/p
p style="text-indent: .5in; margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanG'night. Good luck sleeping." Yoongi grinned before following Jin back to their room. He was sure Hoseok was going to have a long night with those two./span/span/span/p

p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanI need coffee." Namjoon grumbled as he pulled his black Nike hoodie over his torso and slipped on his shoes./span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanAre you walking to BCT? I'll come with you; I can use a bit of caffeine myself." Hoseok commented with a yawn as he tied his shoelaces. The two of them weren't able to sleep until around 1:00am because Sagwa kept wanting to play; even the poor puppy wanted to sleep!/span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanWould you guys mind taking him with you? He needs to use the bathroom, and I'm already taking Sagwa out." Jimin asked them as he gestured towards the puppy who excitedly fidgeted in his spot in front of the door. The poor puppy even let out a high pitched howl to let them know he was there. Jimin was already dressed to go outside with Sagwa held in one hand close to his chest./span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanYeah, I'll take him." Hoseok replied as he grabbed the leash that had been hung on the coat rack the night before. He hooked the leash to his collar and followed Namjoon out of the house with Jimin behind him./span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;"As they walked outside, Jimin made sure to keep Sagwa close to him as he carried her towards the back of the house away from the road. He careful let her down and watched her sniff the grass here and there, "... Okay, Sagwa, I'm going to turn around for you, but you better not run off on me, okay? It's a trade off. You promise not to get into trouble, and I'll promise to give you privacy." he said to the kitten before turning his back to her. How long should he wait? 15 seconds? That sounded about right… One one-thousand, two one-thousand, three one-thousand… he counted in his head./span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;"When his fifteen seconds were up, he turned to see if she was done or not, but it turns out she had different plans! After going to the bathroom, Sagwa had begun exploring their small yard and had traveled a few feet away from Jimin by the time he had realized she was wandering off! "Hey, hey, hey, we had a deal! It's too cold for you out here anyway. Come on." He hurried after her and reached down to pick her back up in his arms to carry her inside./span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;"Meanwhile Hoseok and Namjoon's walk to BCT was definitely eventful. The puppy was drawing a lot of attention, and there were many people passing by who just wanted to stop and pet him. Namjoon even informed everyone who seemed interested that they were looking for people who wanted to adopt, but naturally, all of them said they were unable to have a dog. College students weren't allowed to have animals in the residence halls, so offering to fellow students was basically pointless. He had to admit though… this puppy really was cute; even the way his little legs ran to keep up with their strides was adorable! "I'll go in and get the coffee; you wait out here with him okay? You want a mocha right?" he confirmed the drinks with him before leaving Hoseok outside to grab the drinks./span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;"The puppy tried to follow Namjoon into the cafe, but the door closed right in front of his nose! He began to whine when he wasn't allowed to go in, and he even returned to Hoseok to paw at his leg and let him know that they were left outside. "No, you can't go in there. Animals aren't allowed in." the puppy whined more as he trotted back to the door and barked for someone to let him in. "Dude, your pleas are not going to get you anywhere." The puppy barked back at him, "No. Aren't you even listening to me?" The puppy let out a short howl in response. "Nope. I don't care how unfair you think it is; we're not breaking the rules." The puppy whined again as he finally lay himself down near the door, waiting for the door to open for him to make another attempt./span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanMan, you must really like the smell of coffee. Let me be the first to tell you, you've got enough caffeine running in your system. You ARE coffee." Hoseok laughed as he picked the puppy up and stepped to the side so he didn't get in the way of others entering or leaving the building. "Say… that's not too shabby of a name is it? I mean, you may not be from a television show, but if you're coffee, you're still a celebrity. Everyone knows your name, right?" The puppy turned his head back to the door as though not even listening to what Hoseok had to say, "No, you're right… I could at least be a little more creative. Wait a sec… I know 'coffee' in Korean! What about Keopi? Even if you don't know what it means, it sounds like a good name! What do you think?" The puppy looked back at Hoseok and began licking his face, and just as he started laughing, Namjoon returned with a coffee in each hand, offering him a perplexed look./span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanWere you even trying to calm him down while I was in there? It's weird, but it sounded like you guys were having a conversation. Well, I heard his side of it, but I saw you talking to him." Namjoon remarked as he began the walk back to the house with them./span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanI was trying to tell him he couldn't join you in there. And I found a name for him! From now on, he'll be Keopi!" Hoseok informed him, proud of the name that seemed to fit the puppy so well./span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanKeopi?" Namjoon laughed, "Most people who give their dogs food names do it because of their color. That dog is completely white."/span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanYeah, well maybe he's a cappuccino. Besides, I'm not calling him that because of his coat color; it suits his personality. And he kept insisting that he be let into BCT, didn't he? And he had us up late last night- he's got a lot of energy. Trust me, Keopi suits him." Hoseok explained further, still carrying Keopi in his arms as they walked back home./span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanAlright, alright. Keopi it is. Just keep in mind that they're not staying. I swear Taehyung-ah brought them into the wrong house; all of you are going to be crying when you find they've found a new home." Namjoon remarked with a sigh; he knew that even just one day with an animal could get someone attached… It really was too bad that they couldn't keep them./span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanHey guys, what's-"/span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanShh!" Several of the housemates shushed Namjoon as he and Hoseok entered the living room. "They're sleeping." Jimin whispered to him and Hoseok as he pointed at Yoongi. His head was rested against the back of the couch, his eyes closed as he slept soundly. In the crook of his elbow, Sagwa slept in a bundle of blankets like a baby while the bottle he had been feeding her with remained at his feet, having fallen out of his hand once he drifted off./span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanShe started falling asleep while he was feeding her, and it turns out he was nodding off as well. I don't think he slept very well last night." Taehyung laughed quietly from beside Jungkook; both of them were sitting on the couch adjacent to the one Yoongi sat on./span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanYou guys better have taken a picture." Namjoon grinned as he removed the leash from Keopi's collar, "He's always acting so cool and manly, so this is definitely a sight to see."/span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanJin hyung is way ahead of you. He took one with his Polaroid and his phone." Jimin covered his mouth to keep himself from laughing louder. He reached out and carefully tugged on Yoongi's hair to see if he would wake up, but he only shifted his head and knitted his eyebrows together. He was probably wondering what was disturbing him…/span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanLeave him be, he needs his sleep. He was restless last night." Jin scolded Jimin. Yoongi had gotten up in the middle of the night to write a few things down at his desk, so he assumed he had trouble sleeping throughout most of the night. "Food is ready everyone; just make sure you leave some for Yoongi. Oh, and Taehyung informed me that we'll have to go shopping today for a turkey and ham. Thanksgiving is coming up, and apparently his mother will be coming over next week to help us with the meal. So, that also means all of us have to make sure this house is clean." He had to make sure everyone was aware of the plan ahead of time; hopefully that meant no one would leave cleaning until the last minute…/span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanWhether I give them names or not, I'm going to get attached. The name has nothing to do with it. I'm serious though; they need a place to stay until we find them homes. Together. They can't be separated." Taehyung replied seriously as he sat across from Jin on the couch, practically giving him the puppy eyes to try and convince him to allow them to stay./span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanI think it's a brilliant idea! I've never had pets before, so even just a few weeks is fine by me." Jungkook said excitedly as he remained seated beside the kennel. In his arms he held a white Korean Jindo puppy that kept trying to jump out of his arms to explore the house, "Hold on a sec; we have to stay here for the meeting. It's about you, you know." he laughed as he avoided the puppy's attempts to lick his face./span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspan... I can't believe your mother thought you would be interested because of the puppy's breed. I'm pretty sure she could have just said 'puppy' and you still would have brought it here." Namjoon commented as he watched Jungkook play with the puppy, "Are you really wanting to name the cat Sagwa? How did you even come up with that from the top of your head?"/span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanDon't you know Sagwa? She's the main cat in that television show 'Sagwa The Chinese Siamese Cat'. This kitten looks really similar to her. Do you know what kind of cat she is?" Jimin asked as he reached over to pet the kitten's head. The seven week old kitten was climbing up Yoongi's hoodie, searching for a warm and comfortable spot to settle down in. As soon as she found a space between the base of his neck and his hood's collar, she lay herself down and curled up./span/span/span/p

p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;"Yoongi sat still as much as possible once she placed herself on his neck. He expected her to be playful and hyper like the puppy was, but she seemed to be ready for a nap; he could definitely relate… "Alright, alright… If we're going to take them in, you have to agree to help us all put up signs for them. You know we really don't have the time to take care of them, especially a dog."/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanYeah, I know but at least for now, we can work it around our schedules. Our classes are different, so we can schedule his walks around all that. We can start putting up signs next week since it's Thanksgiving break." Taehyung stated, waiting for everyone to agree to it. He really wanted to keep them for a little while…/span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspan... So do you have a name for the puppy yet?" Hoseok asked. He sat down beside Jungkook and began playing with the dog as well, amazed by how fluffy and white he was. He was definitely going to shed a lot, but he didn't mind that. He was just happy they could have animals in the house for now!/span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanTae hasn't thought that far. Sagwa was only given a name because she's secretly the star of a TV show, but we'll find a name for him soon enough." Jimin laughed a bit as he checked to see how the kitten was doing; she was already fast asleep!/span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanOkay. So everyone's agreed that we'll take them in ONLY for a couple of weeks until they're adopted right? We need to be clear on this. They need to be somewhere they are taken care of." Jin wanted what was best for them, and even though he liked the animals just as much as the others, he had to draw the line somewhere. Once he received a nod from everyone, he stood and gestured for Taehyung to follow him back to the car to get the animals' food while the others were left with the animals to discuss amongst themselves./span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanShould we try picking a name for him right now?" Jungkook asked as he handed the puppy over to Hoseok for him to hold./span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanI think we should wait a day or two to see what his personality is like. It's like when some people call their dogs Angel when they're actually demons." Namjoon remarked with a laugh as he stood from his spot on the couch to join them with the puppy. He really wondered how this whole situation was going to work out…/span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspan... Hyung… I'm going to murder Tae…" Yoongi mumbled as he shifted in his bed and lifted his pillow and placed it over his head to cover his ears to drown out the puppy's whining that came from right outside their door. However, as he shifted around in his bed, a squeak came from the foot of his bed as soon as he felt something furry underneath his leg, and he immediately jumped and scrambled out of bed, taking the covers with him, "W-What the hell?!"/span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanWhat, what is it?! Are you okay?" Jin asked immediately, sitting up to see what was going on./span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;"Yoongi released a heavy sigh once he saw the kitten's furry, dark figure clumsily walking towards the edge of the bed. "It's… It's just Sagwa. How in the world did she get in here…?" He reached over and carefully picked her up in his arms so she wouldn't fall off the bed./span/p
p style="text-indent: .5in; margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanMaybe she snuck in before you closed the door. Either way, that's probably why the dog hasn't stopped whining. Though, I thought the dog was supposed to stay with Namjoon?" Jin asked as he stood up to check on a few things. The master bedroom's door had to be kept shut because of Jungkook's injuries, so Namjoon and Hoseok agreed to allow the dog in their room. He paused at Yoongi's side to stroke the kitten's head, "Poor Sagwa-yah… Mean old Yoongi is already out to crush you." he joked, only to receive a nudge from Yoongi. It was too dark for him to see the glare that Yoongi also gave him./span/span/span/p
p style="text-indent: .5in; margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanShe wasn't even supposed to be in here; how is it my fault that she almost got crushed?" Yoongi responded bitterly as he followed Jin out into the hallway where the puppy greeted them with a wagging tail. The puppy finally stopped making so much noise once he saw the two of them, and he trotted alongside Jin's feet as he made his way to Namjoon's room, finding that the door was left open. "Namjoon, Hoseok. Did you guys purposely leave the door open?" Jin asked after knocking on the door to announce his presence. All of them had only gone to bed 10 minutes before, and the fact that Namjoon wasn't snoring was a good indication that they were still awake./span/span/span/p
p style="text-indent: .5in; margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;"Namjoon sat up and rubbed his head as he answered the question, "Yeah, we had it closed, but he kept pawing at the door and whining, and we thought it was because Sagwa isn't in here… She was supposed to be, but I guess she rushed out before we got the door closed."/span/p
p style="text-indent: .5in; margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanYeah, Yoongi almost squished her." Jin laughed a bit as he gestured for Yoongi to bring the kitten into the room, "Well, hopefully that solves the problem. He seems pleased to see her at least."/span/span/span/p
p style="text-indent: .5in; margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanHey, cut it out, it's bedtime." Yoongi scolded Sagwa as he tried to pull her away from him. Her claws were stuck in his shirt and once he freed one of her paws, she proceeded to paw and nibble at his hand as he tried to free her other one. "Hey, you think I'm joking, but I'm not. You're taking away my sleep."/span/span/span/p
p style="text-indent: .5in; margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanShe's a cat, Yoongi; it's not like she can help that she's nocturnal." Hoseok laughed as he watched his hyung struggle with her. He had sat up as well to see what was going on. As soon as she was pulled away from Yoongi's body, she meowed until she was finally placed down on Hoseok's bed. The puppy excitedly tried to jump onto the bed as well, but he fell backwards once he made impact with the furniture. His legs weren't quite long enough to jump up yet, which left all of them laughing./span/span/span/p
p style="text-indent: .5in; margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanGeez, don't you see that it's a bit big for you? Come on, I'll get you up." Jin said as he bent down to pick him up and placed him on the bed as well. The puppy eagerly jumped out of Jin's arms to greet his friend and immediately lay down beside her, allowing her to climb on top of him and bite his neck. As she continued to play, he finally began to fight back and tugged at her ear to continue the friendly brawl./span/span/span/p
p style="text-indent: .5in; margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspan... Don't you think he's being too rough with her? She's only half his size." Yoongi complained as he watched the two of them wrestle. He had never seen a cat and dog get along this well, so he was worried that one of them was going to go a bit too far, mainly the puppy./span/span/span/p
p style="text-indent: .5in; margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanShe'll be okay; she's the one who instigated it, you know. Besides, they're tougher than they look." Hoseok chuckled./span/span/span/p
p style="text-indent: .5in; margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanYou guys have the litter and water in here, right?" Jin asked as his eyes searched for the two necessities along the edges of the room; the light from the hallway wasn't enough to illuminate the entire room…/span/span/span/p
p style="text-indent: .5in; margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;"Namjoon laughed a little, "Funny thing, actually… Apparently Sagwa isn't litter trained. Taehyung explained to us that her owner couldn't handle cat litter? Or maybe couldn't afford it? I don't know. Either way, The mother cat and all of the kittens were taken outside to use the bathroom, you know, like dogs do. He said the mother was leash trained. The owner told Tae and his mom that the kitten and puppy both know to go to the door to let us know they have to go." he said with a shrug. He had never seen a cat on a leash, but if that was how she was being trained, no point in changing it./span/p
p style="text-indent: .5in; margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspan... You mean she's going to be leash trained like a dog?" Yoongi scratched the back of his head, "Okay then… that's… a little weird. But I guess it's less work for us. Do we have food for them in the morning?"/span/span/span/p
p style="text-indent: .5in; margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanYeah, Taehyung brought some. The puppy is able to eat hard food now, but Sagwa is still transitioning from formula to soft food. She still needs to be bottle fed, but we'll have to wean her from it. She sh- hey, whoa watch it guys!" he warned them as he reached over and picked the puppy up to bring it into his lap, knowing the kitten would follow. They had gotten way too close to the edge of the bed, and he was worried they would fall off if they continued to play like they were. He watched as Sagwa tried to run towards him, and he laughed as she lost balance and fell over. "They are so cute and fluffy! Hey, Yoongi hyung, Namjoon, look! You think he'll make the rapper line one day?" he asked as he lifted the puppy up for them to look at his face just as he sneezed, "Oh, hey, Gesundheit little guy."/span/span/span/p
p style="text-indent: .5in; margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;"Namjoon chuckled, "You know what, maybe he will. He might even replace you." he teased as he laughed with the others, "Alright, let's get to sleep; hopefully he won't be so noisy now that she's in here. See you guys in the morning." he waved to Yoongi and Jin./span/p
p style="text-indent: .5in; margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanG'night. Good luck sleeping." Yoongi grinned before following Jin back to their room. He was sure Hoseok was going to have a long night with those two./span/span/span/p

p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanI need coffee." Namjoon grumbled as he pulled his black Nike hoodie over his torso and slipped on his shoes./span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanAre you walking to BCT? I'll come with you; I can use a bit of caffeine myself." Hoseok commented with a yawn as he tied his shoelaces. The two of them weren't able to sleep until around 1:00am because Sagwa kept wanting to play; even the poor puppy wanted to sleep!/span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanWould you guys mind taking him with you? He needs to use the bathroom, and I'm already taking Sagwa out." Jimin asked them as he gestured towards the puppy who excitedly fidgeted in his spot in front of the door. The poor puppy even let out a high pitched howl to let them know he was there. Jimin was already dressed to go outside with Sagwa held in one hand close to his chest./span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanYeah, I'll take him." Hoseok replied as he grabbed the leash that had been hung on the coat rack the night before. He hooked the leash to his collar and followed Namjoon out of the house with Jimin behind him./span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;"As they walked outside, Jimin made sure to keep Sagwa close to him as he carried her towards the back of the house away from the road. He careful let her down and watched her sniff the grass here and there, "... Okay, Sagwa, I'm going to turn around for you, but you better not run off on me, okay? It's a trade off. You promise not to get into trouble, and I'll promise to give you privacy." he said to the kitten before turning his back to her. How long should he wait? 15 seconds? That sounded about right… One one-thousand, two one-thousand, three one-thousand… he counted in his head./span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;"When his fifteen seconds were up, he turned to see if she was done or not, but it turns out she had different plans! After going to the bathroom, Sagwa had begun exploring their small yard and had traveled a few feet away from Jimin by the time he had realized she was wandering off! "Hey, hey, hey, we had a deal! It's too cold for you out here anyway. Come on." He hurried after her and reached down to pick her back up in his arms to carry her inside./span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;"Meanwhile Hoseok and Namjoon's walk to BCT was definitely eventful. The puppy was drawing a lot of attention, and there were many people passing by who just wanted to stop and pet him. Namjoon even informed everyone who seemed interested that they were looking for people who wanted to adopt, but naturally, all of them said they were unable to have a dog. College students weren't allowed to have animals in the residence halls, so offering to fellow students was basically pointless. He had to admit though… this puppy really was cute; even the way his little legs ran to keep up with their strides was adorable! "I'll go in and get the coffee; you wait out here with him okay? You want a mocha right?" he confirmed the drinks with him before leaving Hoseok outside to grab the drinks./span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;"The puppy tried to follow Namjoon into the cafe, but the door closed right in front of his nose! He began to whine when he wasn't allowed to go in, and he even returned to Hoseok to paw at his leg and let him know that they were left outside. "No, you can't go in there. Animals aren't allowed in." the puppy whined more as he trotted back to the door and barked for someone to let him in. "Dude, your pleas are not going to get you anywhere." The puppy barked back at him, "No. Aren't you even listening to me?" The puppy let out a short howl in response. "Nope. I don't care how unfair you think it is; we're not breaking the rules." The puppy whined again as he finally lay himself down near the door, waiting for the door to open for him to make another attempt./span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanMan, you must really like the smell of coffee. Let me be the first to tell you, you've got enough caffeine running in your system. You ARE coffee." Hoseok laughed as he picked the puppy up and stepped to the side so he didn't get in the way of others entering or leaving the building. "Say… that's not too shabby of a name is it? I mean, you may not be from a television show, but if you're coffee, you're still a celebrity. Everyone knows your name, right?" The puppy turned his head back to the door as though not even listening to what Hoseok had to say, "No, you're right… I could at least be a little more creative. Wait a sec… I know 'coffee' in Korean! What about Keopi? Even if you don't know what it means, it sounds like a good name! What do you think?" The puppy looked back at Hoseok and began licking his face, and just as he started laughing, Namjoon returned with a coffee in each hand, offering him a perplexed look./span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanWere you even trying to calm him down while I was in there? It's weird, but it sounded like you guys were having a conversation. Well, I heard his side of it, but I saw you talking to him." Namjoon remarked as he began the walk back to the house with them./span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanI was trying to tell him he couldn't join you in there. And I found a name for him! From now on, he'll be Keopi!" Hoseok informed him, proud of the name that seemed to fit the puppy so well./span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanKeopi?" Namjoon laughed, "Most people who give their dogs food names do it because of their color. That dog is completely white."/span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanYeah, well maybe he's a cappuccino. Besides, I'm not calling him that because of his coat color; it suits his personality. And he kept insisting that he be let into BCT, didn't he? And he had us up late last night- he's got a lot of energy. Trust me, Keopi suits him." Hoseok explained further, still carrying Keopi in his arms as they walked back home./span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanAlright, alright. Keopi it is. Just keep in mind that they're not staying. I swear Taehyung-ah brought them into the wrong house; all of you are going to be crying when you find they've found a new home." Namjoon remarked with a sigh; he knew that even just one day with an animal could get someone attached… It really was too bad that they couldn't keep them./span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanHey guys, what's-"/span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanShh!" Several of the housemates shushed Namjoon as he and Hoseok entered the living room. "They're sleeping." Jimin whispered to him and Hoseok as he pointed at Yoongi. His head was rested against the back of the couch, his eyes closed as he slept soundly. In the crook of his elbow, Sagwa slept in a bundle of blankets like a baby while the bottle he had been feeding her with remained at his feet, having fallen out of his hand once he drifted off./span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanShe started falling asleep while he was feeding her, and it turns out he was nodding off as well. I don't think he slept very well last night." Taehyung laughed quietly from beside Jungkook; both of them were sitting on the couch adjacent to the one Yoongi sat on./span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanYou guys better have taken a picture." Namjoon grinned as he removed the leash from Keopi's collar, "He's always acting so cool and manly, so this is definitely a sight to see."/span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanJin hyung is way ahead of you. He took one with his Polaroid and his phone." Jimin covered his mouth to keep himself from laughing louder. He reached out and carefully tugged on Yoongi's hair to see if he would wake up, but he only shifted his head and knitted his eyebrows together. He was probably wondering what was disturbing him…/span/span/span/p
p style="margin-bottom: 0in; font-variant: normal; line-height: 138%; text-decoration: none;"span style="background: transparent;""spanspanLeave him be, he needs his sleep. He was restless last night." Jin scolded Jimin. Yoongi had gotten up in the middle of the night to write a few things down at his desk, so he assumed he had trouble sleeping throughout most of the night. "Food is ready everyone; just make sure you leave some for Yoongi. Oh, and Taehyung informed me that we'll have to go shopping today for a turkey and ham. Thanksgiving is coming up, and apparently his mother will be coming over next week to help us with the meal. So, that also means all of us have to make sure this house is clean." He had to make sure everyone was aware of the plan ahead of time; hopefully that meant no one would leave cleaning until the last minute…/span/span/span/p
