Part 2

HONGJOONG

“Why are you so happy?” Asked Hongjoong smiling at you. “It’s been a long time since we had a good time together.” You said. He grabbed your shoulders. “You’re right, let’s enjoy this moment.” Hongjoong picked your popcorn in the bucket you were holding. You slapped his hand, “don’t! This is for the movie.” “We are in the line. Just one... please?” He looked at you cutely. “Oh! Kim Hongjoong?” Asked a girl behind you. Your boyfriend turned around. You hated the took he had on his face, when he spotted who she was.

“Oh! Yuna! Long time no see!” He bowed shyly. He removed instantly the arm which was resting on your shoulders. “How have you been?” “I’m doing fine!” She smiled. “I see that you are still eating popcorn before the movie.” You raised a brow. Who was this girl? And why she knew Hongjoong so well? “Y/N, this is Yuna my-“ he started. “Ex-girlfriend.” She finished sadly. “If I knew that you would be so good-looking, I would have never broken up with you.” She giggled, grabbing his arm. “Technically speaking... you needed to. You went 3500 miles away. That’s not nothing.” He added You felt invisible with these 2. “Hongjoong, the room is open.” You whispered quietly, pocking his shoulder. “Yes, yes.” He simply replied flicking your hand away. “Wait for me inside.” “But the movie will start soon.” “So? Since when you are back in Korea?” Asked the leader, completely ignoring you. “Hum... 3 months.” She replied. She got on your nerves. “Hongjoong.” You whined. “I said that I was coming!” He replied back at you harshly. This sudden behavior took you off guard. He was so aggressive. You were supposed to wait the end of his little conversation? No way. You threw the popcorn bucket in his arms, dropping some on the floor. “Enjoy the movie.” You claimed leaving him here. “What? Y/N!” He asked confused.

SEONGHWA

You were waiting Seonghwa outside the restaurant. He was paying the bill and asked you to go outside. He didn’t like when you see the price. You are always insisting to pay the next time. In front of the restaurant, you saw a car parked in front of you. A stunning girl got out of it. You could help but to be a little bit jealous. “Wow, it’s cold.” Said Seonghwa joining you. “What are you looking like that?” He asked curiously, seeing that you didn’t say anything yet. You pointed discreetly at girl walking toward the restaurant. “Oh! Hyebin!” Waved Seonghwa. You stared at your boyfriend, “Park Seonghwa are you crazy!” “Huh? This is Hyebin. My ex-girlfriend.” He explained. Your heart missed a beat, “what? Are you-“ “Seonghwa Oppa!” She shouted cutely, making you cringe. “How are you?” “Pretty fine! I’m happy to see you here!” You coughed, letting them know your presence. “Can you introduce us? Correctly?” “Ah yes.” He replied. “Hyebin, this is Y/N.” He simply said. “I feel like it’s been a year since we saw each other.” You blinked, surprised by how he just introduced you without adding anything else. “The last time we saw each other was at San’s birthday.” She exclaimed. “Oh yes! That was a good day.” He smiled. “Are you going to eat there? I heard that they cook the best Kimchi stew*!” “I just ate here. But why not just talking around a beer!” “Seonghwa.” You called him seriously. “We need to-“ “Let’s go?” He asked her but turned around to face you. “Go home without me okay? I’ll join you there soon!” “Seonghwa it’s our anniversary!” You crossed yours arms on your chest. “I won’t be long promise!” He kissed your cheek, before rushing to the restaurant. He dumped you there after ignoring you for long minutes. If he thinks you’ll wait patiently at the dorm, he was wrong.

*Kimchi Stew: Kimchi jjigae (김치찌개) is a classic Korean stew made with flavor-packed old kimchi.

YUNHO

“Hurry up Y/N!” You cheered yourself. You needed to prepare the living-room for your movie night with Yunho. On the coffee table, you placed all the snacks and drinks you bought after your work. Today, he was a bit late. Not a big deal. Only 15 minutes but usually he texts you to apologize or just to tell you know that he’s okay. 45 minutes later still nothing. You decided to call him, but he didn’t pick up. Worrying for your boyfriend you called Mingi. “What? He left the dorm as usual. Maybe he stuck on the traffic.” “But he would tell me.” You added. At this moment, you heard a laugh on the corridor outside. “I think I heard him coming. I’ll text you back okay?” You hung up. When you opened the door, you saw your boyfriend laughing out loud with your neighbor. “Yunho?” You called him. “Oh Y/N! Sorry I’m late but I met and old friend.” He smiled. You looked at the girl next to your boyfriend. “Come on Yunho...I’m your ex, not only just an old friend.” She giggled. “Your what?” You asked him to repeat. “Can we really say that you are my ex? We never really talked about it.” “So... we never broke up too?” She asked sexily. “Yunho are you coming?” You stopped their sensitive conversation. “Answer me first Yunho.” She insisted. “We didn’t break up.” He stated, “but we never dated too.” He added. “I guess...” she muttered. “We were just good... old friends.” “Yes! We were having so much fun at this time.” He chuckled. She hopped enthusiastically, “you know what I am thinking about?” Your boyfriend smirked, “let me guess…” “Arcade game!” They shouted together. “Yunho...” you called him again. He shushed you by showing his large hands in front of your face. Before saying something that you would regret, you entered in your apartment and slammed the door loudly. “What an ass...” For sure, he would need to have a good excuse because you won’t forgive him easily.

YEOSANG

Yeosang came out of the dressing room for the 3rd time. “What do you think of this tuxedo?” He asked. You pouted lovely, “everything looks good on you.” He smiled proudly, “I know I’m handsome.” You threw his jacket on him, “Mr. Big head.” “Come on. Just agree on how your man is perfect.” He smirked. “I just know that my man,” you insisted on the gender, “is narcissistic.” Yeosang rolled his eyes and threw back his jacket on you. Unfortunately, it touched your eye. “Ouch! Yeosang!” “Holy s- I’m sorry babe!” He crouched in front of you, blowing on your eyeball to reduce the pain. “Hey! Kang Yeosang!” You blinked painfully and looked at the person in your right. “Oh!” He stood up, completely forgetting your eye. “What are you doing here?” The girl played with her hair sexily, “trying clothes idiot.” He scratched his head embarrassed. “You look so good in this tuxedo!” She complimented him. “I know that you hated to wear this before.” “I still hate it.” He added. You were looking at the scene not knowing what to do. “Really. You were wearing a bunch when we dated.” Dated? You looked at your boyfriend. “Because you liked it.” She giggled, “thank you then I appreciate. You were always so nice with me.” “Yeosang we need to go. Your members are waiting...” You tried to extirpate of this situation. “Go and tell them I’m coming in few minutes if you want.” “So, what are you doing now? Still studying law?” You rubbed your face frustratedly and stood up. Accidentally, or not really, you bumped into Yeosang. “Y/N-“ “Idiot.” You whispered leaving your boyfriend with this girl.

SAN

“This is our seats.” You claimed happily. “Wow! We are so close to the stage!” You clapped enthusiastically. “This is so cool.” He kissed your cheek, “thank you again for these tickets.” For his birthday, you bought his favorite artist concert ticket. He was so happy that he almost cried. “You’re welcome baby. You deserve the whole world.” You giggled. Both of you were talking when a bunch of girls passed you. One of them got your attention. She was staring a bit too much intensely at your boyfriend. “San?!” She finally said. Your boyfriend was confused because of the darkness. “It’s me! Hyeji!” She claimed. “Hyeji?” You repeated, “like your ex-girlfriend?” You muttered. “Ouah! Hyeji! Long time no see!” He stood up, bowing at her. “Yes! I didn’t see you at Soyeon’s birthday last month! I thought that you would never miss it.” “I had a busy schedule.” He said sadly. “It’s a shame! I heard it was epic.” You sat patiently on your seat waiting for her to leave. “Oh, you are sitting here?” He asked surprised. “Yes, this is my seat.” Said Hyeji, sitting right next to San. “Yay...” you whispered. “So cool!” Giggled San. The whole show started, your boyfriend (if you still could call him like that) ignored you. He was only singing and dancing along with this Hyeji. You tried to get his attention sometimes, but it lasted 5 seconds. For sure, if you weren’t there, it would be the same. The last song ended. Finally, he turned around to ask you if you liked the concert, but you weren’t there anymore. Your bag and your jacket neither. “Y/N?” He looked around but you were nowhere to be found. He took his phone and spotted your message from 37 minutes ago. [“I left. You had so much fun with her. Useless for me to be there. Enjoy the concert.”] He tried to call you but only your voicemail welcomed him. For sure, he messed up.

MINGI

Mingi was finally realizing his dream. He was debuting in a good and talented group. Today was his first performance live and you needed to be there. You missed an important lesson at school but seeing Mingi so happy worth it. After the end of the performance, you rushed to congrats your boyfriend and the whole group with the cake that you bought earlier this morning. “You did amazing Mingi Mango!” You said happily, applying a bit of sugar on his nose. “Y/N! I thought you were busy today!” He hugged your carefully, trying to not drop the cake. “Anything for my man.” You winked. “How does it fe-“ “Song Mingi!” Yelled someone behind you. “Mi Yeon?” He replied instantly. “Wow Song Mingi! The man that you are today!” She claimed. “And so you are too.” He smiled. “I think we should celebrate this.” She offered. “Who would really think that we would debut in the same time?” “You were talented. I always believed in you.” He confessed. “And with those kinds of compliments, I know why we dated!” “Dated?” You repeated. “Mingi, is she your ex?” “Wait Y/N, we are talking right now.” He cut you straight. “Should we go at our favorite restaurant?” He offered. “Sure! But I have a full schedule today.” “Mingi-“ “What about tomorrow?” He asked. “Mingi. We need to go out tomorrow.” You repeated, tugging his coat. “We can go another time Y/N.” He replied. “Yes, tomorrow I’m free!” Replied the girl happily. “Nice! See you tomorrow then.” He smiled. You couldn’t believe your eyes. This was really the reason of why you missed your lesson. To be dumped.

WOOYOUNG

“No?! Really?!” Shouted Wooyoung on the couch next to you. You sighed and turned the volume up. With him, you could barely listen to your movie. “What? No! It’s been... few months. I don’t know...” You weren’t angry because he was screaming next to you. But because he was talking so well with his ex-girlfriend. They met at the supermarket and they talked for hours. “Yes! I would love to go there. Can I bring the boys too?” You glanced at him. Now he was erasing you of his upcoming plan. He was getting on your nerves. “Are you done?” You faced him. He shook his head making him understand that he didn’t. You sighed again and tried to focus on your own phone. It was hard since he wasn’t helping at all, with all his giggles. “He still on the phone?” Asked Seonghwa, going in the kitchen. “Yes. And nothing and no one can’t stop them.” You said pissed. “Don’t worry! They were good friends only.” He patted your shoulder. You didn’t know what to believe. How being persuaded they were only friends when he was acting like that? “Hum... maybe we should give it a try. You’re right!” You looked at your boyfriend who looked like a girl gossiping with her best and evil friends. “Ah Mina, you were always so smart.” He laughed. “Okay I’m done.” You claimed, standing up. You grabbed your jacket, next to him. “Y/N? Where are you going?” “Somewhere you and Mina are not.” You said angrily. “Come on. Don’t be ridiculous. We are talking since few minutes only.” You scoffed, “then you call 2 hours and a half, just ‘few minutes’.” “What-“ he looked at the time on his phone. “Bye...” you left without turning back. “Have fun together.”

JONGHO

Finally, after 4 years of relationship, you were finally moving with Jongho. After few months of intense research, you found the perfect apartment to start your young lover life. Right now, you were looking for a good wallpaper for the living-room. “What about a light green?” You offered. “No. It won’t fit the whole mood.” “Then grey?” You pointed at the other one next to him. “Why not painting the whole room in white?” You pouted sadly, “this is too sad. It would look empty.” He smiled at your face and tickled your chin. “Okay then. Go for the grey one.” “Well well well...” claimed a pretty girl in front of you. Yes, she was gorgeous, you needed to admit it. “I didn’t know you were into decorative things. Choi Jongho.” “Jin?” He asked dumbly. “You forgot your first love?” She smiled, pocking his shoulder. “Huh- no no.” He stuttered. “I never thought that we would meet here.” “I guess it’s... destiny.” She winked. You thought he would stop talking to her, say bye and look back for a wallpaper.

Wrong.

Next thing you know, they were talking right in front of you while looking for a new wardrobe for her apartment. He offered to help her since she was struggling with the dimensions and stuff. “You are so nice. You are saving me right now.” She thanked him. “It’s okay. I don’t want to you be scammed.” “Jongho, what about this coffee table for the living-room? It’s really good.” You pointed at the item next to you. “Wait Y/N. I need to help Jin first.” He cut you off, not even looking at you. “Okay...” you sighed. “Do you have many clothes? Or this kind of wardrobe would be good?” “Jongho...” She giggled. “You know I have a ton of clothes.” “Yes true. Let’s find something else.” He smiled. You hesitate to follow them. Seeing him like this, made you angry, but you couldn’t let him alone with her. No way.

Part 2

I Hate Bullies part3

Stray Kids Felix Imagine

Bully!felix x reader

Synopsis : you just got a scholarship (thanks to your amazing grades and talent at handball) and just got transferred to one of the most prestigious high school in Seoul Korea : Inchang Highschool. But of course, life couldn't be so wonderful. (ft enhypen, theboyz, clc, nct and more)

Part1 Part2 >>

Almost 3 weeks has passed and this afternoon is your first game of the season. You got to know your new teamates, you learnt that the girl who tried to pick a fight with you on your first day is Ahn Jiha, a year below you, and is part of the team. She made it very clear that you don't have your place there, trying to make you trip and fall, stealing your clothes, locking you in the locker room.

As for Felix, he continued to apologise and tried to be nicer to people. That wasn't always easy, but he managed to not fight since you arrived.

You became really close to Eunbin, and she quickly became one of your greatest friend. As for Chanhee, he was very shy the first time he met you, but after Felix's apology, he opened up to you, told everything that happened with Felix, how he met Eunbin, and how greatfull he was that you transferred to this school. You guys cried a lot that day, but became very close after that.

With your tuition, you bought new clothes, and saved a bit for new handball outfits.

You enter the classroom with your new pair a sneakers, greeted your classmates and made your way to your sit. At your surprise, Felix was already at his desk, smiling at you.

"You look really pretty" he says, leans his head on his arm, looking at you.

"Good morning to you too Felix." You say, siting at your desk. Eunbin and Chanhee quickly joins you.

"Today's your first game, right ?" Eunbin says, taking a sit in front of you.

"Yes ! It's just against some school nearby, not a big game, but it's a chance for me to show my level."

"I heard you were really good at handball" Chanhee says, siting in front of Felix

"Haha, I don't know if I'm really good, but my skills got me a scholarship so I guess I'm not half bad" you say, smiling at Chanhee.

"We'll all be hear to cheer for you Y/N, eight Chanhee ?"

"Yeah ! We made banners and signs yesterday, I hope you get really embarrassed but still feel our love and support" Chanhee, making his friends laugh.

"I'll be there too, by the way"

You three turns to Felix.

"We know, Felix, you've been telling the whole school to come to the game, otherwise they'll have to face you." Eunbin says

"Uh- well yeah, I gotta support my girl"

You look at Felix. "Your girl-"

"Well threatening students is not the best way" Eunbin glares at Felix.

"Yeah yeah whatever, it worked soo :)"

Eunbin sighes, knowing she won't win.

You get to the field with your team, the whole school cheering for you. You start the game and quickly realized two things : 1, your opponent are REALLY bad, they have no coordination, the game is already won, and 2, Jiha is trying to do everything to make you fail, which is dumb because your in the same team. I wish she could just leave me alone and focue on the game, she's so stupid I swear.

The game is pretty boring, your team is leading of 10 points, and there's only 1 minute left to the game. You take the ball to score a last point, making a perfect 5-15. You run to the goal, noticing Jiha blocking a player, making the way for you. You run next to her, jump to throw the ball, but feel a arm hit your legs, making you fall forward, hitting your knee hard on the floor. You're pretty sure you heard a loud noise coming from your said knee. You look above you, making eye contact with Jiha smirking at you. This bitch-

You didn't had time to say a word as you saw someone grabbing Jiha's collar.

"What do you think you're doing ?!"

"F-Felix ?.. w-what do you mean, I-"

Felix was looking extremely mad, almost grabbing her off the ground he clearly noticed what Jiha had done. And she seemed very scared.

"I saw you ! You did it on purpose ! I'm gonna make you pay for this"

As Felix put his first up, you quickly grabbed at his arm

"Felix no! Don't do this"

As you touched his arm, Felix realized where he was ans what he was doing, letting go of Jiha who quickly ran away.

Soon afterx the coach arrived, taking Felix aside as you went to the infirmary.

"Lee Felix, what do you think you're doing ? Were you going to punch this student ? And what for, uh ?"

"This girl made Y/N fall on purpose."

The coach seemed shocked "What did you say?"

"I saw it, Eunbin and Chanhee saw it too. She swang her arm and hit Y/N's legs to make her fall. She's been a nightmare to her since she got here. Jiha needs to be punished."

"And why didn't Y/N told me about it ?"

"Because she hates bullies, and don't wanna have to do anything with them.."

The coach sighed. "Thank you for telling Felix, I'll punish Jiha for her actions, but you can't go around and try to beat students up, even if you're very angry, got it?"

To the coach surprised, Felix noded and bowed to her goodbye before leaving.

He ran to the infirmary, not seeing you. He got to his class searching for you, but only found Eunbin packing your stuff.

"Eunbin ! Where is Y/N ?"

"She went to the hospital, apparently she broke her knee, the ambulance just felt, you just missed her."

"Do you know which hospital-"

"You don't need to go, she'll be fine, she won't stay there very long, just the time to get her cast. Also, her uncle is with her. She'll be back tomorrow, okay ?"

Felix looked really concerned, but noded and sat down.

"What you can do is get her stuff to her house, I said I was gonna do it but maybe you'll see her at home ?"

Felix looked at Eunbin, smiling.

Felix was in his car, driven by his driver, looking for your apartment. Felix never visited this part of town, it's just behind his neighborhood, but looks very different. There's no big houses, lights, parcs, here is just crappy apartments, drug dealers, dark allies. Felix gets to your apartment ans knocks on the door, your bags in hand.

To his surprised, a small boy opens the door.

"You must be Y/N's friend, thank you for getting her stuff."

"And who are you?"

"Junho, Y/N's cousin, she's not here, if you're wondering. Thank you for getting her stuff."

Junho reaches out his hand, grabbing your bags, closing the door behind him.

"You're.. welcome I guess.."

The next day, you got to school with crutches. Felix, who was waiting for you at the entrance, quickly grabbed your bag.

"It's fine, I can hold it-"

"No you can't, come on let's go inside."

Felix helped you sit, and got your stuff out of your bag.

"Felix stop." Felix looks at you. "Just- stop."

"Y/N what do you-"

"I can deal with myself, okay ?? I don't need you to hold my bag, are help me sit, or beat someone up. You almost got me out of the team, you know that ?? I could've got in serious trouble, and I still can. This Jiha girl is definitely gonna come after me because of what you did ! So just- leave me alone !"

You were very mad at Felix yesterday, and stilm are. I'll definitely get in serious trouble, jeez why do I have to pay for his mistakes ??

Felix looked at you, looking hurt, but he understood.

She's right... She could've got in trouble...

"I got it, I won't bother you again.. sorry Y/N..."

For the ehole day, Felix tried to stay as far from you as possible. You started to feel bad, was I too harsh on him ?..

The next day, when you entered the class, the same beam of light appeared behind you as the first day Felix met you. You were smiling, with your hair down, blushy cheeks, and glossy lips.

I can't do it. I can't let her go.

"Y/N." Felix says, standing beside you. "I know I saud that I'll leave you alone, but I can't stay away from you.."

"Felix..."

Then, Felix got on his knees, looking down.

"Please forgive me Y/N!"

You strated to feel your cheek go red as you bent down to get Felix to stand up.

"Stop this Felix this is really embarrassing."

You sigh and look at Felix.

"I forgive you, but I really don't need your help, okay ?"

Felix quickly nods "I promise I won't help you!"

You sigh again and go take a sit.

You're walking down the hallway to go to practice, your heavy bag on one shoulder. You see from far away Felix walking, looking down at his phone, and another student, walking quickly with a big pile of papers and books. You soon realise that the student can't see where is walking, and is going straight to Felix, who bumps onto him hard, making the srudent fall.

"Oh oh..."

Felix looks down at the student, emotionless, as he looks at the papers and books.

Felix, no, don't get mad please. You try to run but your knee hurst to bad. You watch the scene, walking as fast as possible to stop Felix from beating the student up.

Felix gets down, reach for the student, grabs him by the colar to get him back on his feet. Thsi boy seem so scared, apologising like crazy, but to your surprise, Felix brushes the dist away from the boy's uniform, and bent down again to pick up the papers.

Uh ?..

"Where are you going with all this?"

"T-t-the t-teacher of-f-fice"

"Let me help you with that."

Felix picks up the pile of papers, giving it to the boy, then grabs the heavy books. He turns around towards you, walking to the teachers office, and notice you.

"Oh ? Y/N, Hi ! Are you going to practice ?"

"Uh? Oh yeah.."

"Hey- can you, wait for me here ? I'll be there in no time."

"O-okay" you say, as Felix strats running to the teachers office, followed by the boy, also running.

You si in the hallway and waits for Felix. Not so long after, Felix comes back, still running. He then crouches in front of you.

"Felix, what are you doing ?"

"Get on my back."

"What ?"

"Come on, get on my back. I saw you struggling to walk, so get one my back."

Felix grabs your back, putting it on his shoulder, and waits for you to get on his back. You wrap your arms around his neck, as he gently grabs your legs. He gets up and walks towards the gym.

"You don't have to do this.."

"But I want to."

"Why ?"

"Because I love you."

"Uh- Felix that's not-" you sigh "it's not because I said that it's love-"

"I know I know, but I already told you, I love you. And I'll make you love me too. I can't let you go, I can't just give up on you."

You feel your cheeks get hotter, and look at him. First the first time, you understand him.

The sun was dancing around his features, you could see his freckles and long lashes. His eyes were glowing as well as his skin. You felt his muscles working, but the time seemed to have stopped.

Arrived at the gym, Felix lets you get down on the ground and hands you your bag.

"I'll see you tomorrow, Y/N" he says, before turning around to leave.

"Felix wait !"

He turns around back to you, as you quickly kiss him on the cheek.

"See you tomorrow" you say, smiling at him, then going to the locker room.

....what just happened ?

Living Life Through a Lens: Chapter Fifteen

Chapter 15: Phase II

Word Count: 5.3K

Warnings: none

A/N: Hello! I need to explain a few things. For the next two chapters? At least from what I have written already, there’s going to be a lot of time jumping. It could be a jump that’s a couple of days or sometimes weeks. As I was writing, I found it redundant to write what happened over and over again, when really Y/N’s days are the same. Just work, work and more work. Although I find it necessary to talk about Y/N’s job as a filmmaker, I tried to add things that weren’t work related and hopefully interesting. Things will slow down when the tour and documentary are over. But also, as a side note, one of the reasons why this chapter took so long was the fact that I went searching for actual answers that the members of Blackpink have said in past interviews. Their answers of course aren’t copied word for word, but I tried my best to stay true to what they said when asked these questions. If you're interested about the interviews I pulled from, let me know and I can link them! Thanks for reading(:

[9:00 AM KST]

           After getting off the plane, you, the girls, and your security made your way through the airport. Automatically, you were separated into two groups. Because you and Lisa were not South Korean citizens, you had to make your way through the immigration and customs line, whereas the rest of the girls only had to walk through the security checkpoints.

Making your way to the airport officer’s desk you handed them your passport and work visa. The officer took a few minutes to look through your documents, and after, she gestured for you to look at a camera that was mounted to her desk. When it was done scanning and taking photos indicated to you by a loud beep, she handed back your documents and in English she said, “welcome to South Korea.”

Going through things like this, whether it was airport security or passing the border, made you feel nervous. In reality, you had nothing to worry about but still, the thoughts never failed to cross your mind. What if I accidentally packed a bomb? Or a gun? Maybe the size of my perfume was too large? What if they take it away?

When you were through all the checkpoints, you eventually met up with the rest of the group. But when you got closer you noticed that apart from your own personal security, there were officers and other men in suits surrounding Jennie, Jisoo and Rosé. Before you could question the hassle, the doors opened up to large crowds that formed behind a series of gates, which went all the way to form a pathway to the outside. It looked like a scene out of a movie; never in your life had you seen so many people gathered at an airport like this. In the crowd of course were fans, reporters and photographers. As much as you and the girls wanted to stop and say hello, it was made very clear that you were not permitted and had to get in the van as fast as you could.

Once settled in the van, you heard three consecutive knocks on the door and instantly the vehicle lurched forward. Due to the rush to get inside, you sat beside Lisa instead of Jennie. On your way to the van she held onto your arm tightly, and even after settling in the van her arm was still linked with yours. “Is it always like that when you return?” you asked.

Looking at Lisa, her face was neutral but when you really looked, you could see a little bit of nervousness peep through. “Yeah it gets pretty hectic, but as long as everyone follows security’s instructions and the pathway, it all goes smoothly.”

…

When the van pulled into the lot of the girl’s apartment building and the doors were opened,

each of the girls exited the van one by one. However you and Lex stayed behind. When they realized you weren’t following, they gave you a questioning look. “Are you guys not coming in?” asked Rosé.

“I would like to, but I have a couple things back at home that I have to get to. Plus I need to unpack.” As you said it, the girls understood but also looked disappointed. So to make up for it, you asked if they wanted to meet up for dinner, to which they happily agreed to. Before security could shut the doors, Jennie hopped back inside and sat in the seat beside you.

She put her hands on your arm and with a pleading look on her face, she said, “I want to come with you.”

Everything happened so quickly that all you could do was smile and nod. From the looks of it, Jisoo, Rosé and Lisa weren't surprised, and they continued walking toward the entrance of their building. The driver of the van looked back as if to question if it was okay to go, and when you nodded you could hear the engine start up again.

During the drive you always stared out the window, trying to soak in as much of South Korea as you could. But on the drive, in the corner of your eye you could see Jennie’s head bobbing up and down. When you looked over she was trying so hard to stay awake but was desperately failing. So, to avoid any pain that might arise in her neck later on, you took her head and placed it steadily on your shoulder.

By the time you reached your apartment, you were stuck in a phase and didn't notice when the van had stopped right in front. When Lex tapped you on your head and pointed out the window, you took notice. Before you could get up, you nudged Jennie slightly. Comically, she shot right up and a few seconds later started rubbing the back of her neck. You could only laugh at her and say, “let’s go.”

With your luggage in hand and both Jennie and Lex on either side of you, you made your way up. Reaching the door that led into your apartment, you were met with a number of boxes stacked up along the door and the walls surrounding it. Among them were PR, but the vast majority of them was the camera and editing equipment you had ordered.

To get to the door handle, you had to move some of the packages aside.  Looking over you saw that one of the big boxes leaning against the wall had New Zealand to South Korea written in bold red lettering, and was wrapped in tape that had the word FRAGILE repeating over and over. Based on its size you thought about what it could be. When it clicked, instantly you panicked and dropped one of the boxes you were holding. It had to be the painting you bought for Jennie. Luckily, you had enough room to open the door and swiftly you pulled Jennie inside, leaving Lex, your luggage and the pile of boxes behind.

“But your luggage and boxe–” Jennie said while still looking behind.

“–it’s okay, Lex has it. That’s what I pay her for. Now come on, I wanted to show you something.”

When Jennie took off her shoes and made her way further inside, you quickly jutted back. Pointing to the painting and in a loud whisper you said, “Jennie’s painting.” She understood you right away and quickly motioned for you to go back inside. Before you left her with all the boxes, you also whispered, “thank you.”

“Y/N?” you heard Jennie call out.

Running in her direction you met her in the kitchen. Out of breath you asked her, “yes?”

She smiled at you and asked, “what did you want to show me?”

Desperately you looked around for something. “Right– I uhm. Have I given you a tour yet?”

“Y/N, I’ve already been here… Don't you remember? You look a little pale, are you okay?”

Already in a panicked state, she was asking too many questions for you to focus, so when you replied the words fumbled out of your mouth. “I’m all good! Oh right, you have been here before and uh I wanted to ask you something.” Having looked around at your empty apartment, you felt like one thing was missing, and during that thought, one question came to mind.

“Ask away my love,” she said.

“I don’t want to rush anything, but because we slept together in my room back at the lake house, I was wondering how our sleeping arrangements might work here? Between the two of us, I have this apartment, you have yours and the dorm…”

She laughed and looked around, “sleeping arrangements? How do you manage to make it sound so business-y? It doesn't matter to me where we sleep.”

You perked up at the way she said ‘we.’ In your head, you expected her to say that you would sleep in your respective homes, but it made you both happy and relieved that she thought about where you might sleep together. Ultimately, it was decided that you would split the time evenly between your apartment and hers, and if need be, then at the dorm as well.

Having sorted that all out, you took her to your room and into your walk-in closet. Coincidentally, half of it was already filled with your shoes and clothes and the other half empty. Looking at the empty racks and shelves you said, “this side is yours to fill if you want.”

Then you took her to your washroom where all of your things were gathered around one sink and the other sink completely bare. When you opened up one of the cabinets that was hidden behind a mirror, you told her the same thing. That this was her space to fill.

When you turned around to face Jennie, she was no longer in sight, but looking down you noticed she was on her knees. Kneeling down beside her, you tilted your neck in order to look at her face. You wanted to see her reaction as you were excited, but you saw that she had tears in her eyes. The tears right away caught you off guard and made you panic all over again. “Or not! Jennie you don’t have to move in. Please don’t cry. Why are you crying?”

Looking up at you she wiped them away and reached out to hug you, causing you to fall back on your hands. Still not letting go, she said against your neck, “no I want to. They’re happy tears. I’m happy, Y/N. There’s just one problem…”

You tensed up and pushed her off of you, but still held onto her legs so she wouldn't fall. “What problem?” you asked in desperation.

She shyly covered her mouth and laughed. “Back at my apartment… I have too many things. It’s going to take awhile for me to clear things out for you.”

Hearing her reasoning, you let out a deep sigh and held your head on your knees. You let go of her legs and she fell backward against the tub. “God Jennie...I thought it was something serious.”

…

Lisa’s laughter could be heard throughout the whole restaurant, which in turn caused you to laugh as well. It was dinner time now and before this, you and Jennie spent the whole day unpacking your camera equipment. By the time you made sure everything was labelled and in working order, you received a call from Lisa asking where you guys should meet up for dinner. After hearing Rosé and Lisa argue back and forth over the phone, they both settled on hotpot.

Rosé was just about to add more vegetables to the broth when suddenly Lisa grabbed her arm holding the tongs. Both of their arms hung over the steaming pot, “yah! There’s already too many vegetables in there!” Lisa yelled.

Just as soon as Lisa grabbed Rosé’s arm, she opened up her hand causing the vegetables to fall into the pot, smirking to herself as she watched them fall. Lisa could only sigh and sit back in her chair, while you, Jisoo and Jennie just laughed.

To keep them from further petty arguments, you said, “I hate to talk about work, but since we officially start filming tomorrow I wanted to get a few things out of the way.”

Trying your best to sound as friendly as possible, there still was a bit of seriousness in your voice, causing the girls to sit up straighter in their seats. Trying to break the tension you laughed, “relax guys. Nothing has to change, I just wanted to know a couple things before we start.”

You wanted to know where each of the girls wanted to film their interviews. Whether it was at YG, their dorm, personal apartments, or even places like the recording and dance studios, you told them to pick a place where they felt most at ease. After much discussion, it was decided that Rosé wanted to be filmed in the recording studio, Lisa in the dance studio, and Jisoo and Jennie in a professional setting somewhere in the YG building.

…

Unsure if it was the three espressos you had on the plane or the entertaining dinner you came back from, you sat in your bed awake. Jennie was knocked out in the bed beside you, while you sat up writing a few ideas you had for the documentary. During dinner you discussed where you would film and which member you would start with. Lisa volunteered to go first, then Rosé and then followed by Jisoo. Jennie had work in Japan and would be leaving so she would go last. In your notes so far, you had a couple of facts that were given to you by YG, and a couple of questions that you wanted to ask each member in front of the camera.

While writing your last question, you felt Jennie turn over next to you. When you looked over, she opened her eyes and right away she squinted because of the bright light that was currently coming from the light that sat on your nightstand. She threw her arm over your lap and very groggily she said, “how are you still up? Let’s go to sleep.”

Willingly, you gave in and put your notepad and pen on the table. When you shuffled and laid down in the bed, you reached over and shut off the light. When all was said and done, you felt Jennie rest her head against your shoulder. With the darkness, the warmth and feeling Jennie next to you combined, you easily drifted off to sleep.

[7:30 AM KST]

When you woke up and turned over to where Jennie was last night, she was no longer in the bed next to you. Instead it was just a note. Picking it up it read:

Y/N,

As much as I don’t want to leave this morning, I still have a job to do. As I’m writing this, you could not look any cuter than you look right now. You don't know how badly I wanted to wake up with you. I hope all goes well with your filming today. I’ll miss you while I’m in Japan!

                                                                                                                - J

As you read it, you could feel your heart flutter in your chest. You smiled and placed the note on your nightstand. Already starting the day off with a good start, you sat up and got ready for the day of filming you had with Lisa. When you were all ready, you walked back over to your nightstand, picked up your notes from last night and quickly shoved them in your purse.

…

Walking into the dance studio with your film crew and the countless luggage of equipment, you saw that Lisa was already there. When she saw you in the reflection of the mirror she ran over to greet you and help you with what you were carrying. Placing the last luggage in the corner of the room, you told her that it would take awhile to set up some of the lights, bounce boards and mics. And that if she wanted to learn a few things she could help you with the set up.

With the help of your crew and Lisa’s, it didn't take as long as you anticipated and soon you and Lisa were sitting on stools across from one another. Looking at the monitor on your right as well as the notes in your hand, you quickly reviewed everything to make sure it was all set up properly. Crossing everything off on your mental checklist, you were ready to begin with the questions. With a reassuring smile and a thumbs up you told Lisa, “okay, everything looks good to me. Remember that the point of today is just to roll through as many questions as we can, and that’s it. Don’t stress and just be yourself. Are you ready?”

Checking the monitor once again, you saw Lisa smile widely and nod in your direction.

Y/N: Can you explain to me who Lisa is on stage? And how she differs from Lisa off stage?

L: On stage I like to be as charismatic as I can be, but also because I want the fans to enjoy the performance, I tend to smile a lot. Concerts should be a place where people have a good time, so I try my best to give them (fans) all my good energy and happiness. Off stage I like to think I’m the same, always happy and making people laugh. You can describe me as a jokester, prankster and an all-around joyful person. I’m very happy when I’m around the people I’ve built relationships with.

Y/N: Life as a trainee is known to be hard. Can I ask what got you through it?

L: My mom and dad’s support helped me get through a lot. I talked to my mom every day and she pushed me to keep going. Also, at the time, with the help of the other trainees, I felt even more motivated. To go through those hard times together and have the same dreams of debuting definitely helped too.–

You had tons of other questions for Lisa, and by the end of them you felt exhausted and called it a day. There was a wide variety of questions you asked her. Ranging from the simple things such as her daily routine or her relationship with her members, to her life as an idol, her feelings and what she planned to do after being out of the spotlight. When you covered all the aspects of her life, you turned off the lights, signalling that it was all over.

When Lisa got off of her stool, she stood up straight and stretched in an odd way. Laughing at the way she stretched, you asked, “did you want to go for dinner?”

Like a dog with a bone, right away she perked up and agreed.

…

After swallowing the food she had in her mouth, Lisa looked up at you and said, “You were so serious! But as we got through more and more questions I felt more relaxed and it felt like we were having a normal conversation. Thank you for making the whole thing comfortable for me. I wish all my interviews could be like that.”

Shifting in your seat across from Lisa, you smiled at her as she said that. You had hoped that the first phase would have worked and that by now you were comfortable enough to ask questions and have the tough conversations. Filming with Lisa felt natural; her answers were clear and concise, and the others were longer when they needed to be. Today couldn't have gone better in your opinion. “Thank you for being open with me. Every time I film, I realize just how hard it is to open up to people. You did all the work, I just filmed,” you said while giving her a comforting smile.

On schedule for the rest of the week, you would be following Lisa around on her daily schedule. She told you that apart from her home and YG, she spent time working out at a gym and sometimes went out to eat.

You could feel vibrations emanating from someone's phone on the table, unsure if it was yours or Lisa’s both of you picked up your phones in unison. Flipping yours over, you didn't see anything but your lockscreen which was a selfie that Jennie took just for you.

You thought back to when you first saw it on your phone. Initially you picked it up from the pile of phones thinking it belonged to you, but when it wasn't your original background you insisted that it wasn't yours. After looking through all the phones, you picked it up again and oddly your finger unlocked the phone. Jennie caught you staring at it oddly, and said, “I changed it so that you wouldn't miss me so much. You're welcome.” At that, you took her phone, took a photo of yourself and did the same. When Lex caught you guys laughing at your phones together, vividly you remembered her rolling her eyes and saying, “god I hate you both.”

Snapping back to reality, you looked up at Lisa and it looked like she was replying to a message. She quickly apologized and looked up at you, “sorry. Jisoo-unnie said she wanted to watch a movie and asked if you wanted to join us. Come join us!”

It was getting late and you had to be up early tomorrow, but the cheerfulness in her expression kept you from saying no. One movie won’t hurt. Plus there’s always coffee. Except that it wasn’t just one movie, and by the time you got home, it was already the next morning.

[7:00 AM KST]

Your alarm was blaring on the bedside table, and with one of your hands you reached over and smashed your fingers against the screen in hopes of it turning off. With your luck, it didn’t. So you picked it up angrily and tapped the button to make it stop. Even after it was done ringing, you could still hear it in your ears.

Swinging your legs over the side of the bed, when your feet met the cold ground you could feel the beginnings of a migraine forming behind both of your eyes. You knew this would happen if you didn't get enough sleep, but you didn't regret it because you had a good time watching movies with the girls. You got up and headed for the shower and hoped the steam might help it go away. Unfortunately, the shower didn't help, and like you always did in the past, you resorted to a coffee and an Advil. As soon as you swallowed, you headed out the door.

Arriving at the dorm, you waited in the car for Lisa to come down. Due to all the curtains covering the windows, the inside of the van was dark and so when the door opened and the light came flooding inside you expected the pain of your migraine to get worse, but it didn't. You sighed in relief when the pain was gone and saw Lisa standing there. Looking at her you noticed she was in her workout clothes. She looked wide awake and bright as always.

Once she settled and put her seatbelt on, you asked her, “how are you so wide-awake right now?”

She laughed and rubbed your arm, “because I love that this is my job. Besides, today is an easy day. Don’t worry. There isn’t much in my daily routine.”

…

The first place you went to film Lisa was at the gym she liked to learn how to box. The second place was, well not really a part of the schedule, but was a place to eat since she got hungry after her workout. Then the third and final place was YG’s headquarters. No matter how many times you walked inside the building, it still felt intimidating. You walked passed the receptionist desk and made your way to the elevators.

Once in the dance studio, you brought out your camera once again, and you set up to film Lisa dance. You watched carefully through the screen and made sure that all the shots turned out the way you wanted. The choreography you watched Lisa perform was for Blackpink’s upcoming tour. The day you had met them, they had just finished learning the bulk of it all, and so at this point she and her choreographer were simply fine tuning the dances.

Once you thought you had all the shots, you sat back on the chairs that were in the corner of the room and just watched. It was getting late and you could tell her choreographer was getting tired, but Lisa as a result of her perfectionism and her relentless work ethic still kept going. Each time she would mess up she would shout, ‘one more time!’ and start from the top.

You told yourself, okay let’s just take a quick ten minute nap, and closed your eyes. When you woke up, everything looked the same as when you had just closed your eyes. But to your surprise when you looked at the clock, not only did ten minutes fly by but two hours. Panicking you stood up from the chair in which you sat, and before you could turn around to find Lisa you felt someone grab your arm. Turning to see who it was, you saw that it was Lisa. She was sweaty and out of breath but asked if you were ready to go. Out of relief and tiredness you placed your head on her shoulder and said, “yes please,” earning a laugh from her at the same time.

On the drive to the dorm, it was quiet and all of a sudden Lisa said, “Y/N I have some things that I wanted to ask you…” As she asked, you could feel the gravity of her words and sat up straight from your slouched position to look at her. Awaiting her question, you sat there nervously.

“What do you plan on doing after the movie? Will you go back home? I uhm. I just–” she started stuttering and that was when you could tell the hard questions were coming. You gulped and waited for her to finish.

“–I respect you, and I consider you a friend, but still as I watch you and Jennie get more and more serious. I can’t help but want to look out for her. I guess what I’m trying to ask is… Do your future plans have Jennie in them?”

In truth, you expected this conversation to happen with somebody, but you didn't think it would be Lisa. Maybe Jisoo? Or Lex? Taking in what she had asked, you understood and didn’t blame her for asking. If you were in her place, you would ask too. Pausing for a brief moment and then looking at her to make sure she knew you were being honest, you said, “besides anyone on my team as well as Jennie, I haven't told anyone this. But, before I took this job I planned on taking a break for myself, and then my heart got broken and I took the job to get away from that pain. And ever since the start of our project I’ve thought about it endlessly; about what’s going to make me happy and the things I still want… Even today, when I think about those things, Jennie is in all of them. She is in every thought I have before I do anything. Now well I’m not solid on many of my plans for the future, I at least do know that she is in them. Whatever that may be. She is– you guys all are very important to me. Realistically speaking I could work from here, but as of yet I haven't thought that far. I hope that answers your question.”

With your answer you could see the satisfaction across her face. She sighed as if in relief and said “thank you Y/N. I know I say it all the time but really. Thank you for everything.”

…

Before you could realize it, your week with Lisa had flown by and in that time you followed her around on her daily routine. It was the same things over and over again, the only thing that changed were the places you would stop by to eat. You also got to know more about her and even met her parents, over facetime of course. In conversation you brought up that they should come out for the movie premiere and they gladly accepted, but even sooner they mentioned they would see you at the concert in Thailand. It was just a simple conversation over the phone, but through it you could see where Lisa got her kindness and always-happy attitude from.

It was your day off and the last day before you would start filming with Rosé. So to take it easy you planned a spa day with Lex, and planned to meet up with the girls for lunch later in the day. Jennie was still in Japan so you wouldn't see her there, but you two planned on calling each other later when you had free time.

Before you and Lex left the apartment, you made sure to bring the gift you bought for Lisa that you intentionally placed on the counter near your keys so you wouldn't forget. After you had bought the painting for Jennie back in New Zealand, you thought about what gifts you could buy for the other members. At first, you struggled to find things you thought they might like, but as time went on and you got to know them better, picking things out became much easier.

What you had planned to gift Lisa was the very first film camera you taught her on along with the developed footage she shot on it. Back at the lake house, you saw how much she enjoyed shooting on it. So with that, you were on a hunt to try to find the same camera but in better condition. When you found one on eBay, you stayed up bidding all night. That is, until you got frustrated and made sure to put in an offer that far outbid the person on the other side. The day you and Jennie spent opening boxes was when you noticed it came. Jennie had unknowingly opened it and placed it near the rest of your camera equipment.

Opening the box quickly to make sure it was still in there, you saw the sealed camera, the footage, along with a handwritten note you wrote for Lisa. With the box in hand, you blissfully walked out the door.

The note read:

Lisa,

Surprise! I loved seeing you have so much fun with this camera, so I bought you your very own. I’ve taught you so little and your shots are already better than mine! In time, I hope this camera will serve to remind you of happy times and that we become even closer as friends.

All my love,

Y/N

P.S. Thank you for making this process so easy. Let’s work hard in Phase II!

Part 3

 Although their camel tour ended a little comically, everyone had fun. Hoseok on the other hand was salty the whole day because of the poop incident. As soon as they reached their hotel, Hoseok spent at least two hours in the bathroom alone taking super long bath just to get rid of the smell or whatever he thought it was. He claimed it was to stabilize his mental state after the horrifying event.

 Hoseok could be a little too dramatic sometimes, no one could stop that guy.

 Leaving Hoseok with his delusional thought, others went to get dinner at nearby restaurant and bought takeaways food for him to savor later on. Enjoying the night city view, the stars sparkle in the night sky.

 “I love the city when it shuts down” Jimin whispers.

 Yeoul smiled upon hearing that low and raspy voice of his, so enticing. They both strolled the parks pedestrian pathways following others from behind silently. The streets was empty, there were minimal number of people around and most of them were couples. The emptiness was strange and magnificent.

 “This is perfect” she squished their hand tighter.

In front of them, there were Taehyung with his cameras and his loyal assistant Kim Namjoon, his eyes fixated on his gadgets. These two guys sometimes stopped in the middle of their walk to take good picture and admiring them afterwards. Or ended up bickering over Vante’s photos.

 Maknae and Jin on the other side were busy scanning the city and finding good spots to shop, though there were fewer shops opened past 11. The couple did not give up on whatever they were planning to buy, more like souvenirs.

 Taehwan and Yoongi went back earlier than them since they wanted to catch up their sleep, with that they offered to bring Minyeol together. Poor Minyeol being dragged around by the adults. Not to mention, they still had to feed loner Jung Hobi, that guy must be starving.

 Yeoul and Jimin took their time to enjoy this night stroll exchanging funny stories or stealing glances. Being with Jimin taught Yeoul how to swoon him with a simple flirt and playful kisses. She was taught well.

 “Baby..Let’s ditch them” he tugged on Yeoul arm preventing her to move.

 “Are you crazy? They will flip out” raising her eyebrows with a questionable look, she watched Jimin took his phone typing something in his phone.

 Jimin grinned “Done. I notify them in our Kakaotalk group,so lets go” he pecked her lips, intertwining their hand together. Yeoul could only smile at his randomness and followed him wherever he wished to go. Anywhere with Jimin is everywhere she wanted to be.

 Like a flash the couple disappeared from their vicinity for their own oh-not-so-romantic midnight tour. Jin and Jungkook had so much sense in them that they did not even care when they left unlike someone who insisted of following those two. Another reason how they ended in Morocco anyways, Kim Taehyung really need to stop pursuing different career in his life. The preferred V and Vante for now.

 Please don’t turn him into Varazzi or something.

 ------------------------

 There sitting side by side, two pure soul enjoying each other company under dark sky accompanied by the heat from the bonfire across them. Being drawn by the warmth of their body heat, Yeoul snuggled in Jimin’s embrace smiling as he rested his chin on top of her head.

 The fire glimmered and gleamed, its warmth drawn people in creating an atmosphere for sharing and making memories. As the night grows, they wished to linger around just a little longer in the warmth and contentment around the fire.

 Everything about tonight was perfect.

 “Aren’t you tired?” he was the one who first broke the silence between them.

 Jimin felt Yeoul shifted a little in his embrace and soon he heard she replied “Tired of what? You? That is impossible.. I prefer to cling onto you for the rest of my life” she teased while wrapping her arm around his waist tighter.

 “You cannot be tired of me. My charms are overflowing” he gazed down into her dark orbs. A pair of eyes that never failed to draw him in into this crazy world. World with unspeakable love. World that fills with hope. World that fills with happiness.

 If she were to list down her weakness when it came to Jimin, his gaze would definitely on the list. In fact, that’s her utmost weakness.

 “Aren’t you being a little over confident right now Park Jimin-ssi?” she ran her thumb over his lips, stroking it softly.

 “I don’t mind if it is you I am trying to win over” caressing the back of his hand along Yeoul’s soft cheeks, Jimin closed the gap between them and locking her into a long endearing kiss. A kiss that he wished to give everyday.

 Their lips move just perfectly in sync following their rapid heartbeat. He stroke over her back in a light touch that sent tingles in her heart. Every time their lips touched the spark ignite anew. Yeoul placed her palm upon his chest over his heart and felt it strong steady beat. The kiss deepened as she could feel with every stroke of his tongue latching onto hers.

 They broke the kiss to catch a deep breath “You are irresistible Park Jimin” Yeoul mumbled against his lips.

 “I am sorry. You have to deal with it until death do us part” nuzzling her face, Jimin chuckled softly.

 “I don’t mind” this time Yeoul was the one who initiate their second round. Locking her arm around his neck tight, she pulled him down for another kiss. Who knows a kiss with Jimin can be addicting? Well Yeoul had her whole life to deal with it.

 ----------------------

 It was time to get back to reality. Everyone was physically ready to be back in Korea but not mentally. They will be missing Morocco for sure. Nonetheless, thanks to Kim Taehyung unexpected plan Yeoul and Jimin stays in Morocco was extra fun than they expected. Creating new memories with their loved one especially Bangtan, Taehwan and Minyeol, it was beyond perfect.

 Boarding the plane on time, everyone got into their seat. First class seat as they said, but Jungkook was stuck with Jin for the whole journey, how unfortunate. He liked his hyung but sometimes he’s a little too bubbly for someone at his age. Considering he is in the hyung line, Jungkook felt he had slowly shifted toward the maknae line.

 Welcome aboard Kim Seokjin!

 Even before the plane took off, Jin insisted to sit on the aisle and made Jungkook stay in the middle. They had no idea who would take the window seat but scratch that, he hoped that person wouldnt snore that much.

 Jungkook eyes wandered at the direction of their seat and noticed the window seat was already occupied. He couldn’t get a full view of the person but he’s sure it was a girl. So, he sank in his seat carefully not to startle the girl whom seemed engross with her reading. She had earphone plugged in both of her ears got him less anxious to sit behind a stranger some more a girl.

 The older boy came few minutes later with a triumph grin plastered across his face, more like mocking Jungkook for sitting beside a girl.

 Maknae grunted under his breath feeling unfair as he sent death glare at Jin’s way “If it weren’t for you……” Jin dumbfounded look was even annoying.

 As the plane was ready for take off, Jungkook stole a glance at the girl beside him. He admired her long eyelashes, and her soft fluffy cheeks which again reminded him Jimin’s puffy one. Her fingers were beautiful and those accessories that she wore fitted perfectly around it. He tore his gaze from examining her feature even more like a creep. Jungkook had no idea why was he so nervous when the girl beside him showed no interest to start a conversation even a simple hi.

 You are so stupid Jungkook. He grimaced.

 The first hour of the journey, Jungkook had decided to pay all his attention on the games in his phone. His mind sometimes was too wild and he tended to over thinking too. The girl snapped the book closed as she stifled her yawn, stretching her aching muscle.

 She loved window seat since she had more space for herself and most importantly she didn’t have to deal with strangers on plane. Engaging into unimportant conversation was one thing, but she hated people who snore in the plane.

 Thank god, the two guys beside him seemed normal. She totally forgot to take a glance at the guy beside him and only to realize he’s quite good looking. Not an average look for a man at his age, but his eyes and those visible veins were her weakness.

 Reaching out to her hair, she’s about to tie it into a bun but only to lose grip on her red hairband. It landed just few inch from Jungkook’s feet. Jungkook realized that and put away his phone. He bent down to pick the hairband up but at the same time the girl was already reaching for it. Their head were hitting each other, earning a low gasp from both Jungkook and the girl.

 Jungkook straightened up with a baffle look “I am so sorry” he apologized earnestly.

 The girl took the hairband and rubbed her sore head with a small smile “It is alright. I am sorry for dropping this” their eyes met. The girl grew anxious at the sudden staring battle that they had right now. She touched her face in case she smeared her lipstick.

 “I am sorry? Is there something wrong” she inquired.

 He was brought back to his sense as he blurted without he realize “Nothing. You are just pretty” Jungkook himself couldn’t believe what’s coming out from his sinful mouth. Clasping his hand over his mouth, he patted it giving it a scold.

 The girl blushed upon hearing his compliment as he watched him in horror “W-hat…” she faked a laugh and averted her gaze from Jungkook.

 “I mean..I didn’t mean to say that. That is just weird. I am sorry again” He bowed a little hoping he would not scare the girl away. What’s wrong with him anyway? This stupid filthy little mouth gave away compliment so casually especially to a stranger like her.

 She shook her head “It is alright. It must be the gravity” she reasoned.

 Jungkook bit his lower lips to surpass his chuckle at her silly reply “Urm.. I am Jeon Jungkook by the way” he flashed her a charming smile not trying to win her over but that’s just how he smiled.

 The girl was taken aback at first not expecting the guy beside her would introduce himself. This was the start of every conversation, how she hated that. Therefore just to be polite, she replied Jungkook casually “Nari…Son Nari” her eyes gleams.

 “Nari.. Nice to meet you Nari-ssi”

 “You too Jungkook-ssi”

 Interestingly, this Son Nari girl seemed to not recognize him. Not to sound like a superstar, but to be frank everyone knew Bangtan Sonyeondan but for some reason this girl had zero idea of his existence as one of famous idol members.

 After exchanging their names, they fell into silence again. Nari exasperated a sigh of relief knowing Jungkook was not a talkative person, so she could enjoy this plane ride with ease.

 Little did Jungkook know, Jin was actually faking him being asleep. He heard it all up until those little innocent conversation made by Jungkook introducing himself to some random girl. It was a rare sight but he’s proud of his dongsaeng mustering his courage to talk to opposite sex.

 Jungkook stiffened in his seat still contemplating whether to ask questions or kept his mouth shut. Part of him wanted to prolong this conversation as he was curious of this Son Nari person. A soft sigh escaped as his fingers fiddled nervously.

 “You should be thanking me later Jeon” a soft voice whispered awfully low and close to his ears causing him to jerk backwards accidentally hitting Nari again.

 “I AM SO SORRY AGAIN” he looked over at the confused girl and threw a nasty glare at Jin, grinding his teeth together.

 “You seem to have the knack of bumping into others clumsily” she chortled.

 The corner of his lips tugged into an embarrass smile “I thought there was a bug on my seat” he lied. Studying her facial more clearly know, he could tell she’s judging him considering how hard she tried to hold back her laughter.

 “Actually you kinda remind me of one of my friends.. he is..” Nari couldn’t believe with her own eyes that she actually felt comfortable talking to a stranger exchanging their stories and life which was she rarely did every time in public.

 But..Jungkook. Something about him made it feel different.

 Was it his smiley face?

 Was it his perfectly round eyes?

 Was it his giggly side every time he got shy?

 It had always been a start of something new. Nari could use new friends.

Can You Hear Me?-Part 2

Johnny x Reader Author: MoRo

Prompt: Oooh okayy, I’d like to request some Johnny fluff please? Like maybe a soulmate au 

Summary: You were unconcerned about soulmate things because getting it was the end of your final year in collage and time was counting down until graduation. But what happens when your soulmate suddenly appears right before your finals exams and it turns out he’s been there for much longer than you knew? Having your soulmate in your head was not something you needed but the more you get to know him, the more you appreciate him being there. College!Johnny x reader

Note: I love this part so much! I wrote it while watching some of Johnny’s videos in Korea since I could see this boy doing something with film or photography if he wasn’t an idol. He’s just all around so talented. Warnings: More fluff Word Count: 1.5k

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9

(OMG BUT THIS GIF THO LIKE HE’S SO SOFT AND ADORABLE)

You wake up to the sound of your soulmate's voice and roll over expecting to see him there next to you but he's not. There's a soft pang in your heart again but you push it away.

"Good morning baby. Uh i-is that alright if I call you that?" A deep voice asks softly, hesitantly. 

You giggle softly at Johnny's shy stuttering. "Yeah that's fine. I like it." You smile even though Johnny can't see you.

"Did you sleep well?" He asks you.

"Mmmhmm, I did. How about you...love?" You ask him, testing out a nickname for him.

"Love. She called me love." Johnny almost choked out of surprise on his food when you called him that. His heart fluttered and he smiled like a fool. "I slept good." He takes another bite of food. 

You sit up in bed and stretch, groaning as your muscles pull. Johnny hears you groan and gets concerned. "Are you okay Y/N?" 

You chuckle at the concern in his voice. "Yeah I'm fine. I didn't realize you could hear that. I was just stretching." 

"Oh..." You can hear his embarrassment and you laugh a little more. "You're so cute Johnny." He sends his laughter back down the bond, "Thanks babe. You are too ya know." You shake your head and laugh at him, cheeks growing red. 

Getting out of bed, you narrate your routine to him. "Right now I'm trying to figure out what to wear today. It's getting cold with winter coming in." You stand in your closet with a finger on your lips trying to decide.

 "Hmmm.." Johnny hums in response. "How about something warm?" He makes a smart ass comment. This boy wasted no time getting comfortable with you and you really enjoyed it. It felt easy and natural.

"Well no shit sherlock." You retaliate. Johnny laughs loudly down the bond. "So my soulmate has a fiery streak in her. I like that." You wish he was here so you  could swat him for that. 

"Believe me babe, I wish I was there too." He tells you softly.

 "Wait you heard that?" Your bond continues to surprise you in weird ways.

"Kind of? I heard part of it and felt you wanted me there..." He says. Then he goes silent for a minute. 

"Johnny?" You say his name.

"Come here during Christmas break." He suddenly says, popping back in and startling you. 

"What?" You weren't sure if you heard him right.

"Come here for Christmas break. Come spend a few weeks with me after you see your family obviously."  That sounds so amazing to you. The thought of going to see him pulls at your heart. Now you wish break was sooner. 

"Okay." You say finally

"Awesome." Johnny says in a breathy voice. You can practically see his grin.

 "Are you grinning right now love?" You ask laughing.

 "I am, how did you know?" He asks laughing back with you. 

"I don't know, I could just feel it. It was so bright." You tell him, cheeks turning pink at the soft confession. On the other side of the bond, Johnny's cheeks are doing the same. Both of you are turning into blushing cheesy soft messes because of each other.

 "Oh crap..." Johnny's turn to groan his time. "I have to get going and work on this film project with my group for class. I'll talk to you when I have the chance?" He sounds desperate like he doesn't want to leave you.

 "Yeah that's alright but I don't want to distract you. Besides I'll either be studying or whatever until Maeve drags me to go do something." You give him a little mental shove to get going. 

He laughs. "I like this Maeve. She's good for you. Takes care of you when I can't be around." Johnny confesses before leaving. "I'll be back soon, don't miss me too much." Then he's gone again. 

You roll your eyes at his comment and blush a little. It's still so weird to have a soulmate. Someone who is destined to be with you. You were relieved you won't be alone forever like you thought.

 Despite what you always said to Maeve, you were really worried about if there actually wasn't anyone for you. You never really tried dating, like some of you friends did, because no one interested you. You didn't want to put time and effort into something if you weren't invested. But having Johnny made you feel like this was right. Something just clicked in you and it felt natural. 

You had a few hours until Maeve woke up so you decided to watch some YouTube. You'd hope your favorite YouTuber uploaded today

He was a college student like you who posted vlogs and stuff with his friends since he's a film and photography major. You're not sure where he goes to school since he's really vague about his personal life except for what his major is, which is fine, you totally understand that.

 You scroll through his videos looking for some of your favorite ones. Finding one of your favorites, you click on it and settle back. 

"Hello everyone and welcome to another Johnny's Communication Center! JCC! Today with me I have my international friends, Jungwoo, Yuta, Doyoung, and Taeyong! Woooo~!" A handsome face with black fluffy hair and a gorgeous smile yells excitedly into the camera. 

You smile at the handsome face of John Seo. You loved watching his videos since they were always a nice break from the stress of school and made you laugh at his extraness. His friends were always funny too. They had really good chemistry together.

"Today we have planned another Johnny's Fashion Evaluation but in a special place! We're at the thrift store where we'll have 15 minutes to pick an outfit out for the person I’ve randomly assigned." 

You hear a voice of protest off screen. "Wait but what about you?" It was Doyoung asking when the camera turned to him. John, turning the camera back on himself, places a hand on his chest. "I am the judge for today!"

Rest of the boys give more shouts of protest at that comment. "Fine fine! At the end you all can help put together an outfit for me. Fair?" Then John continues with explaining the game, "So Taeyong is dressing Yuta, Doyoung is dressing Jungwoo, Yuta is dressing Taeyong, and Jungwoo is dressing Doyoung! Is everyone ready?"

The camera pans to the boys shouting and getting ready by doing ridiculous things like stretching excessively. "Ready, start!" The 4 boys then run off into the clothes racks. It's a mad house with them dashing to and from with clothes in their arms and quickly looking through things.

John takes you along, stopping by each boy and asking what their concept is.

"Desert." Taeyong says for Yuta.

"Mmmm, I think Mafia." Yuta says for Taeyong's concept.

"How about you for dressing Jungwoo, Doyoung?" John asks the brown-haired boy.

"Beachwear look." Doyoung responds back.

Then John finds a very confused looking Jungwoo. "And you Jungwoo? How are you dressing Doyoung?" 

"Aquarium!" He responds back.

"What?" A now confused John asks his blonde-haired friend. "Like blues?"

Jungwoo just shrugs his shoulders and nods.

You laugh at the John-Jungwoo exchange. He was one of John's funniest friends because he sometimes lost his head in the clouds. 

John walks around again to see what each friend has gotten. Jungwoo shows off a blue ombre jacket he found for Doyoung.

"Under the sea~ Under the sea~" the blonde-haired cutie starts singing randomly making John burst into laughter and you too.  

"It would be fun to hang out with them. They seem like fun." You think to yourself.

"Who seems fun?" A familiar voice pops back into your head.

"Ah! Johnny! You're back!" Your heart flutters with your soulmate being back. "I was just watching my favorite YouTuber to pass the time. He and his friends seem like a lot of fun. Today I was watching him do a fashion evaluation on his friends and it was funny."

"What's the YouTuber's name?" He asks.

"John Seo but he goes by Johnny. Well at least he does for his fashion evaluation stuff and his communication episodes." You respond back.

"Ahhh... He sounds like an interesting guy. Is he cute?" Johnny teases you.

Now you really wish he was there so you could hit him. "I mean he is handsome. He has a really nice smile and fluffy hair. But that doesn't mean anything to me." You say to make sure Johnny doesn't get jealous.

"Ohhh I seeee." Johnny laughs at your comment and your face gets a little warm in embarrassment.

"Oh hey does he happen to have friends named Doyoung, Yuta, Jungwoo, and Taeyong?" He asks you out of the blue.

You gasp. "Yeah! He does! How did you know that? I thought you said you didn't know who he was?"

Johnny started to laugh a lot at your comment. "Oh I know him REALLY well Y/N." His laughter continues to bounce around in your ears.

"Wait you do!? How?!" You are getting more and more confused by each passing moment.

"Because you goof," Johnny pauses for dramatic effect, "I'm John Seo. That's my YouTube account."

Something Like Fate Pt. 1 (Joshua Hong)

Hello everyone! It’s Erin again. I’ve been lowkey working on a multi-part Joshua thing, and I’m almost done with it, so I thought it would be a good time to post the first part! (I’m thinking right now it’s going to be about 6 parts? Maybe? Unless I change it again?) So here’s part one! I hope you enjoy it! (Sorry about the slow burn aspects...)

Masterlist

“Babe, come on. If the flight didn’t go well, would I be talking to you?” You laughed into your phone, listening to your boyfriend fret over you yet again. You had recently gotten a small part in a drama in Korea, purely by accident, and had to come for a couple months to film. You wandered around the airport, trying to figure out where you were supposed to go. “Listen, I have to go. It’s hard to try and figure out where I’m supposed to go while I’m talking to you… Yes, I swear I will text you when I get to my hotel so you know I’m alive.” You laughed again. “Okay, yes I love you too. Talk to you later.” You said, hanging up the phone.

You walked up and down the hallway, trying to figure out which exit you were told to meet your new manager at. As you walked, you realized the numbers on the doors were getting larger than the number you were looking for. But as you turned around, there was a giant gap between the exits. You pulled out your ticket and looked at it, clearly confused. You sighed and looked between the two doors, trying to figure out how they managed to skip the number 15 all together.

“Excuse me, are you lost?” You heard someone say, and as you sighed and looked up, a boy about your age was standing in front of you. He was giving you a concerned look, and you shook your head on instinct, then sighed.

“Yeah, actually. I’m trying to find exit 15 and the doors go 13 and 17. Why doesn’t this airport have a 15?” You said, and his eyes widened a bit.

“Can I see your ticket?” He asked, and you showed it to him, and then he nodded.

“Actually… You’re looking for exit 51. They print this part upside down for some reason. You want to keep going down this hallway here.” He said, pointing to your left. You groaned and took your ticket back.

“Thank you. I have to go. It was nice to meet you. Actually, being honest. It was a rather mediocre experience. Have a great day.” You said, turning and walking down the hallway, leaving the boy confused in his spot.

“Dude, what’s wrong with you?” A shorter boy approached him, waving a hand in his face.

“Nothing. Nothing, just met an… interesting person.” He said, letting out a chuckle.

“Okay…”

“What’s up Woozi?”

“We’re boarding now. Time to go to Japan.” He said, nodding his head towards their gate.

“Right. Let’s get going.”

*

You walked down your street, headphones in and zoning out the world. You had just gotten back to Seoul, and were trying to fight off the jet lag that was threatening you most of the afternoon. But you still had a couple hours until if you justifiable for you to go to sleep, so you decided to go see if one of your favorite restaurants was open for you to get take-out. Plus maybe the exercise would wake you up.

You honestly weren’t expecting to come back. You went back home after you finished the first season of the show, and were fully convinced you had lived your little dream life for a couple months. Then about a month ago you received a call from your manager saying they were planning a second season and they wanted you to come back. You hated leaving your family, friends, and boyfriend once again, but there was a strange comfort as you walked the streets. Much more comfortable that last time, when everything was new and scary.

You finally got to the restaurant, and were happy to see that it was still open. You walked inside, and saw that aside from a couple tables of guys, it was otherwise empty. You were pulling out your headphones when the girl behind the counter smiled at you.

“Y/N! Welcome back! How long has it been? When did you get back?” She asked, and you smiled back at her, happy she remembered you. You didn’t notice one of the boys look over at you two when she called your name.

“It’s been a few months. I just got back a couple hours ago. I’m back for a bit though, so hopefully I’ll be in a bit more.” You walked up to the counter and she started typing in the register.

“I assume you want your usual?” You nodded and she smiled, confirming the order. You paid her, and she gestured for you to take a seat to wait.

“It’s just going to be a few minutes. We had a couple big orders, but yours is next.”

“Thanks.” You smiled, pulling out your phone and scrolling a bit through some messages you ignored once you got off the plane. You had only responded to the ones from your parents and your boyfriend at the airport. The boys sitting at the tables must have all known each other, because every once in a while they would shout back and forth to each other. You tried to ignore it, but at the same time the shouting kept you awake. Before you knew it, the waitress came out from back with a giant bag of food for you.

“Here you go, Y/N.” She smiled, and as she handed it to you she leaned forward. “We put a little extra in there for you.” You laughed as you took the bag, thanking her.

“Good luck with them.” You said, nodding towards the boys. She just shrugged at you.

“Oh, they haven’t been so bad. They just ordered a lot of food, it was hard to keep up. They all seem nice though.” She said, heading back behind the counter. “Now go home! Go eat your food and go to sleep!” She added, waving you out of the store. You shook your head, thanking her once again and exiting the store.

You were a couple feet from the store, about to put your headphones back in when you heard someone shout something behind you.

“Wait!” You turned around, and saw one of the boys who was sitting at the table jogging towards you. You raised an eyebrow, wondering if he was talking to you. He must have been, because he stopped just in front of you.

“Can I help you?” You asked, and he pointed at you.

“You’re Y/N Y/L/N, right?” He asked, and you nodded. “From that drama?”

“Wait, you know me?” You asked, a little surprised. You had a pretty minor part, most people didn’t really notice you that much, mostly focusing on the main characters. You’d seen a couple comments online about your character, but never really in person.

“Yeah! You’re my friends favorite character, actually.” He said, gesturing back to the restaurant. You felt a smile growing on your face.

“Wait, really?” You asked, slightly flustered. You didn’t think your character was anybody's favorite.

“Yeah, he always roots for them.” He said. “A couple of us usually watch the new episodes together when we get a break. It’s a really addicting show.” He laughed, and you nodded.

“Well it’s always nice to meet a fan.” You said, flustered beyond belief. You actually had a fan? That was a real person? “What’s your name?”

“Oh, it’s Joshua. Joshua Hong.”

alright, so today was overall pretty good. My alarm went off at 8:15 am and I successfully convinced myself to get out of bed, so that was of course a win in itself. Got ready and caught the 9:02 bus, which put me perfectly on track to get there in time for the 10 am service since it’s almost exactly an hour commute from my apartment to the church. The bus ride is shorter early Sunday mornings of course since the roads are more clear and there are less people making stops, so by the time we got to the train station it was just about 9:25, the train plus short walk after is generally about 25 minutes. I have literally everything in my life precisely timed, which makes it that much more infuriating when Chicago public transit decides to throw a wrench in my schedule. I entered the train station, swiped my card and got up to the platform, only to find out the next train wasn’t coming for another 18 minutes now, so it wouldn’t get there until like 9:45, which doesn’t get me to church until like 10:15, meaning I’d miss most of worship and at that point I was like mmm no thanks, so I left the train station and checked the time estimations on uber and uber pool and decided I’d risk a pool to save money and hope the drive isn’t too bad. It ended up being pretty much perfect, I walked a few blocks to get picked up but from there church was the next stop so I ended up getting there at like 9:50 with time to spare before they even opened the doors to the sanctuary (they have a really short turnover time between services to make sure there are bibles and welcome cards at each seat and such so the doors generally open 5 minutes prior to the service). When I did get in I sat on the edge of the row towards the back since I was gonna try to sneak out on time to get to the huddle for the babies room for the next service since I was serving in there for then. Worship was good, the message ended up being on vulnerability and what it is and isn’t and why it’s important to show real vulnerability to those in our lives, delivered by one of my favorite members of the church board, so that was very good. when it turned 11 I snuck out to head to the kids volunteers lounge and it ended up being empty so I was like...did I mess this up? lol. It turns out I didn’t, most other people were just running late, but I got to catch up with the kids ministry pastor which was good because I’d been MIA for several weeks now (the explanation for which ended up being “I got a job and things have been really crazy” instead of the truthful “I lost the willpower to get out of bed on Sunday morning for several weeks and I’ve also been traveling a lot” just because that was an easier answer and got the job info out). so that was good at least. The babies room went well, we had a good number of employees, I had a little girl that I was handed from her parents in the door and then she refused to let me put her down the entire service so that was what I did the whole time, lol. Babies are like that sometimes in the nursery, they’ll get attached to one person and then won’t leave their side. Things were actually very calm though, I honestly don’t think there were any real crying incidents, which is a fucking miracle, even with only 5-6 babies. I’ve always said though there’s only two ways it goes in there- either everyone’s calm and playing nicely with no crying, or everyone’s screaming and something’s on fire, no in between lol. After the service I headed home and had to wait for fucking ever for a train, it was the weirdest thing, the first two trains that pulled up had both just been declared “not in service” and dumped all their passengers on the platform with no explanation, so by the time the 3rd train came like 20 minutes after I got there it was VERY crowded, but I survived and got to the bus alright. When I went to sit on the bunch for the bus stop a girl about my age came over and showed me directions on her phone and was basically like “am I in the right place??” which I assured her she was and showed her where on the sign it has the info she was looking for, because for a newbie figuring all of that out can be very difficult, and I definitely speak from experience there. It also occurred to me that there were other people waiting there but she waited for a woman about her age to come to ask because that’s a lot more comfortable than risking talking to a random man who might be a creep, so I was happy to help of course. Got home, got into comfy clothes and had some lunch, then watched a few more episodes of Designated Survivor and AH. GUYS. THIS FUCKING SHOW IS SO GOOD. The new episodes are fucking brilliant, and the way they incorporate real world unscripted interviews of actual people is so ingenuitive and actually a genius way to address social issues while maintaining a fictional environment (versus something like, Glee, where they’re trying to cover everything under the sun and shoving it all down your throat constantly). And the storylines in general are just so good, and the writing for the president is so damn good because you are always rooting for him. he has to make tough calls where there’s not always a clear right answer, but he always seems to pull it out and find the best way forward, and it’s so satisfying to see. and I LOVE KIEFER SUTHERLAND SO MUCH. god, his line at the Florida con last month was sooooo fucking long (like 2-3 hours of waiting time long) but I would’ve loved to have seen him again. Hopefully the opportunity will present itself in the near future so I can gush about how much I love the new episodes, lol. I didn’t want to binge too many of them and run out of episodes, so I stopped after episode 7 and watched more Anthony Bourdain, where he was taking on Queens, which was quite the adventure. After I finished that at some time around there Jess came over and we ordered cheesy bread as was the plan, but there was apparently some issue with the store getting swamped with orders and only having like two delivery drivers, so it took like over an hour for us to get the dang thing, but of course I’d never blame that on the poor schmuck who brought me the cheesy bread that has to run around all night to people who are probably ticked their order is late, and of course I tipped him well because the wait sure as hell wasn’t his fault. Before it arrived though, we watched some videos of some of the KPop boys’ adventures in America and Chicago specifically, mainly the one kid from outside Chicago and the one from Canada were going around with one of the ones actually from Korea (they’re all of Korean descent, they just weren’t all raised there) and taking him to like, Target and doing all sorts of amusing shit that is legit just what we would be doing if we were celebrities, so that was very amusing. Once we were finished with that we ended up buying Captain Marvel on streaming, since I’m sure as hell gonna wanna watch it again probably in the near future, so then we watched that for the rest of the night. Thoroughly enjoyed it the second time through, of course you pick up on different things knowing what’s coming so that’s always fun to see. Once the movie was over Jess headed out, and I watched another Anthony Bourdain episode and then just hung out for a bit without anything on before deciding to shower and start to get ready for bed, which I proceeded to do and now I am here. This was probably way too detailed for a day that really wasn’t all that exciting, but oh well, that’s how it comes out sometimes, no issue with that. It just turned 1:30 am so I should definitely be getting to sleep, so I will be doing that now. Goodnight loves. Hope your Monday doesn’t suck.

Mr Perfect

Requested!

Matchmaker! Y/n x Jinyoung

Warnings: None

Another successful match. You hated to brag, but you were damn good at your job. You ran a very successful dating company, Mr Perfect, matching, usually American women with men from South Korea. Your company was based out of Seoul and it was ranked #1. You were always booked up, never had alot of free time to date anyone yourself, but maybe one day business would slow down and you'd get the chance. For now though, you were perfectly content helping others find their perfect match.

Next up, you had a meeting with Brooke. She was from LA, living in Seoul for 3 years, going to school, and of course needing help in the dating department. She likes semi shy guys, someone who can dance, doesnt necessarily have to be born in SK but is living here, a nice smile and tall. You knew the perfect guy for her. Mark. He was born in LA, came to Seoul to go to school as well, was in a dance group and was looking for love.

"Hello Brooke, how are you today?" You ask her.

"Hi y/n, I'm good, thanks! I'm excited to see who you have chosen for me" she replies, excitedly.

"Ah yes, here is a picture of him, his name is Mark. He's basically everything you're looking for. I've already spoken to him and shown him your picture and he really wants to meet you!" You tell her. Her face lights up with excitement.

"He's so handsome! And look at that smile. I can't wait!" She says.

"I'll set up a meet for you two here at first, and if you both click you're more than welcome to leave and go do your own thing. I'll give you a call when I have a time set up." You tell her.

"Thanks so much y/n, I can't wait! See you soon!"she says as she walks out the door. You really hoped this one works out as well. They would look so good together.

~~ few days later ~~

"Hi Brooke, nice to see you again. Please come in my office while we wait for Mark" you say to her. She walks in and you close the door while you stay in the waiting room for Mark. A few minutes later he shows up, and you excitedly usher him into the room where Brooke is. Keeping your fingers crossed they click. A few minutes later, they come out, giggling and cannot stop staring at eachother.

"Hey y/n we're going to go out for a bit" says Mark. As they're leaving, Brooke turns around and whispers a thank you to you. You just nod your head back. Another successful match. You have a few hours until your next meeting, so you decide to go to the new coffee place a few blocks away. You've heard nothing but amazing things from people about that place. 15 minutes later, you arrive at Seoul's Coffee. Walking in, you take the cute little place in, it's nice, intamite, and smells amazing. After placing your order, you go sit down at a table and wait for your coffee and cinnamon bun to be brought to you. It doesnt take very long for it to come, and it all smells amazing. Looking up from your phone, you see someone else sitting alone. A man, well built, dark hair, good sense of style, that's about all you can see from the back. He gets up to go to the counter and you see his face. Wow. He's extremely handsome. Dark eyes, mysterious. What is his deal, you wonder to yourself.

Your phone rings, shit, you've been here longer than you expected. Getting up and starting to rush towards the door, you accidently bump into someone. The man, you've been staring at for the last hour.

"Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry" you frantically say

"Hah, no worries, all is well" he says. Oh my god. His voice is like butter. You feel like melting into his arms that made sure you didn't fall. Your phone rings again, snapping you out of your daze.

"Ah, I have to go, sorry again" you say while rushing out of the coffee shop.

What was that? You think. You've never been like that over a man before. You've also never seen a man who looked like him before. Walking back to your office you hear someone running down the sidewalk yelling. You turn around, and it's the man from the coffee shop and he's holding your purse.

"Here" he says, " you forgot this back at the coffee shop".

"Oh my god,I didnt even notice. Thank you so much!" You say. You turn to walk away when you're stopped by a hand grabbing your arm.

"I uh, dont usually do this, but I was wondering if you'd like to grab dinner with me sometime?" He asks you. Fuck yes, you think.

"Sure, why not" you say. You exchange numbers and you're back on your way to the office with a smile plastered on your face. The man, who's name is Jinyoung, and you have been frequently texting. Making arrangements to meet up. Tomorrow at 7pm, you're going to dinner. You've never been more excited.

You've finished getting ready, wearing a tight black dress that shows off your curves, and some heels. Your hair is curled and makeup is on point. You and Jinyoung decided to meet at the restaurant. Walking in you're slightly nervous, wondering how this will pan out. Will you be a good match? Will the conversation flow? Will you even have anything in common? Looking around, you spot him. Looking damn good. You make your way over to him,he looks up and smiles when he sees it's you.

"Hi y/n, you, wow, you look great" he tells you. You smile.

"Thank you, you look pretty good yourself" you reply. He gets up and pulls your seat out for you, such a gentleman.

After looking at the menu, you place your orders and begin talking.

"So y/n, what do you do for a living" he asks you. You're not sure if you really want to tell him.

"I own my own business, just helping people. How about you?" You quickly say.

He laughs.

"I'm actually a 3rd grade teacher" he beams.

"Wow! That's great. How do you like it?" You ask.

" I love it. I love kids and learning so it all works out" he says. You're about to reply when you hear someone calling your name.

"Hey y/n!" You turn around and see Mark. Shit.

"Oh hi Mark. What are you doing here?" You ask him.

"Brooke and I are on a date tonight." He says. You're about to tell him to have a good night or something until he says "Hey Jinyoung! I didn't know you knew y/n! She's the girl I was telling you about, the one who owns the matching company that put Brooke and I together. What are you guys doing here? She usually has her meetings in her office" he says, a little confused.

"We're actually on a date.." he replies.

"OH. I uh, I'm sorry to intrude, have a good night and uh, bye" Mark says and quickly rushes off.

"I'm so sorry" you say to Jinyoung. "I guess I'll get going, it was nice to meet you. Thank you for a lovely evening" you say, as you are about to get out of your seat.

"Wait!" Jinyoung says, "why exactly are you leaving?" He asks.

"Because you found out what I do for a living. The last guy I went out with did not like what I did and he told me to choose between my company and him. Obviously I chose my company, so I dont date now. I just thought you wouldn't like it either." You say with your head down. Normally you're not ashamed of what you do. But after your last boyfriend you don't like telling guys what you do, unless they're a potential client.

"Well, he sounds like a jackass" Jinyoung begins, "first off, I think it's cool that you run a dating company, it can be hard to find someone you really connect with. Second, you seem to be excellent at your job because I've never seen Mark so happy and Brooke seems to be a absolute perfect match for him". He says. You smile, widely.

"Thank you" you say to him.

"I don't know about you, but I'd like to continue this date and see you again because I really like you y/n". My god could he be anymore perfect. You were swooning.

"I'd really like that too" you reply. Mr Park Jinyoung, seems to be the perfect guy, for you. You weren't sure you'd ever find him. But you did. You found your Mr. Perfect.

Summer Love

Pairing: Suga | Min Yoongi/Park Jimin Rating: T POV: Jimin/3rd Words: 3.3k Summary: Yoongi and Jimin are camp counselor boyfriends

ao3

A/N: This is my Submission for the Pretty Boys Network’s Secret Summer Love Project, I hope y’all enjoy it! :)

**moodboard made by @taetaetrashhh**

“Hyung, come on we’re gonna be late, it’s the first day we can’t be late!”

“Sorry, Sorry, coming.” Yoongi walked out in the outfit they have to wear; a blindingly bright red t-shirt with ‘Camp Counselor’ in big white letters on the back and ‘Camp Jin’ on the front pocket, a name that Yoongi had complained about, saying that it’s the least creative fucking camp name that Jin could’ve possibly come up with, to which he received a slap on his arm and a “respect your hyung, hyung” for from Jimin.

Jimin giggles at the annoyed look on his boyfriend’s face, which just results in the latter rolling his eyes at the younger boy.

The two finally get out the door and drive the 20 minutes to the summer camp, arriving at just before 9am; right on time.

They walk into Seokjin’s office holding hands, for which they immediately get scolded for, causing Jimin to jump from the sudden yell.

Yoongi scoffs, “Good morning to you too, hyung. Was that necessary?” He wraps an arm around his boyfriend’s waist and pulls him closer to him to comfort him.

“Yah!” Jin rushes forward, “I’m sorry Jimin-ah, I didn’t mean to scare you! I ah, must’ve forgotten to talk to you about that, s’all.” He trails off and rubs the back of his neck nervously.

Yoongi’s eyes narrow, “Talk to us about what, exactly?”

Jin gestures to the two boys, “That. You two. You’re not allowed to act couple-y around the kids.”

Jimin pipes up from his place in Yoongi’s side, “Why not, Jin-hyung?” He frowns, instinctively pressing closer to his boyfriend.

“Uh, why? Do you have a problem with us showing our affection towards each other?”

Jin scowls, “Min Yoongi, I really hope you’re not insinuating that I’m homophobic, because you know full well that I’m head over heels in love with your best fucking friend.”

“How could I forget? Every time I go to the studio to work on our songs with him, all I hear is ‘Jin-hyung did this’, and ‘Jin-hyung took me on the best date this weekend!’ it’s exhausting, honestly.”

Jin rolls his eyes, “Well, no, to answer your questions, I don’t have a problem with it, but just no PDA of any kind in front of the kids. While I don’t think the kids themselves will particularly care, we are still in Korea and I don’t want to have to fire you two if a kid tells their parents about the ‘two boys kissing’ and they file a complaint; or what happens if they see you two being intimate and they try it with another camper and tell their parents? You two will have to be fired and a kid might get beat or kicked out by their parents if they think their child is gay, and they’re only 4-6, Yoongi, they’ll literally die if they’re kicked out and have no one to care for them!”

Yoongi flinches at Jin’s accusatory tone, “Okay, okay I got it. No PDA in front of the kids. Try not to have an aneurism over it, hyung.”

Jin immediately smiles and nods, “Great! Here’s your nametags and you know all the other rules, you can join Namjoon-ah and Hoseokie in the main room, the kids should be arriving at any moment.

They leave Seokjin’s office and detatch from each other, walking awkwardly next to each other with at least one foot of space in between them.

They make it into the room and give each other one last loving gaze before going their separate ways; Yoongi going to stand near Namjoon and Jimin near Hoseok.

This is gonna be a long summer.

The kids start arriving at exactly 9:15 and once the last kid arrives and checks in, Jin starts speaking, “Good Morning campers! Welcome to Camp Jin! I hope you enjoy your summer here and make great memories and friendships. I’m going to split you up into groups and assign you a certain counselor, who will be your advisor throughout the entire summer. Lee Taemin, Kim Taehyung, Lee Seokmin, and Wen Junghai are with Mr. Park.”

Jimin raises his hand, a big smile on his face as the four kids rush over to him.

“Lee Jihoon, Jeon Jeongguk, Choi Hansol, and Kwon Soonyoung are with Mr. Min.” Yoongi raises his hand.

“Choi Sungccheol, Yoon Junghan, Hong Jisoo, and Jeon Wonwoo are with Mr. Jung, and Kim Mingyu, Xu Minghao, Boo Seungkwan, and Lee Chan are with Mr. Kim. Your counselors have your activity schedules, so please go to them so you can start your fun-filled day!” Jin claps his hands together and the remaining kids rush over to their assigned counselors.”

After 2 hours with his kids, Jimin loves all of them, he really does, but he maybe likes Kim Taehyung the best. Yes, the 6-year-old is extremely energetic and always running off, but the other kids aren’t, so Jimin likes him the best.

The opposite can be said for Min Yoongi. Now Yoongi likes kids, don’t get him wrong. He wouldn’t have agreed to work for his hyung if he didn’t, but three of kids are always yelling and running off and Yoongi is tired. 4-year-old Jeon Jeongguk is the only calm one, keeping to himself for the most part, barely even speaking and playing by himself instead of with the other kids.

Namjoon and Hoseok were having too much trouble with all their kids individually, however, since they got more of the older kids, so they decided to combine their groups, with Jin’s consent, of course.

Jimin also got consent to let his group hang out with Yoongi’s, they’re not allowed to combine permanently, though. Now, Jimin isn’t having trouble with his kids to warrant him needing to combine with Yoongi, he just misses his boyfriend and feels like he might go insane if he doesn’t so much as see the older boy for nearly an entire day;

And that’s how they find themselves sneaking off into a secluded part of the building during lunch time to catch up on everything they weren’t able to do for 4 whole hours. If they can’t even deal with not being with each other for more than a few hours, how they’re supposed to survive the next 3 months of camp is a mystery.

“Hyung!” Jimin giggles, “What if we get caught? Jin hyung will kill us.”

Yoongi rolls his eyes and stops near a wall in one of the dimly lit hallways, grabbing one of Jimin’s hands in his own and running his thumb over the younger boy’s knuckles, “He’ll only kill us if he finds out, Jiminie.” He grins and traps his boyfriend against the wall, one hand on the wall and the other on his waist, leaning in to capture Jimin’s lips with his own.

Jimin reciprocates immediately, humming contently and moving to deepen the kiss, bringing one hand up to cup Yoongi’s cheek.

They continue this routine every day; sneaking away at lunch time to a secluded hallway to make out until it gets too heavy for them to continue.

One day, however. They catch the attention of a certain dark-haired boy as they’re walking off.

Yoongi and Jimin are kissing heavily in the middle of the hallway when they hear a small voice speak up from about 10 feet away from them. Jimin’s eyes snap open and he pushes Yoongi away from him, barely sending him an apologetic glance before his eyes lock on the source of the voice. Jeon Jeongguk.

The 4-year-old has his head tilted and a confused look on his face, “Mr. Park? Mr. Min?”

“Ah! Jeonggukkie!” Yoongi says in a strained voice, walking forward until he’s right in front of the boy, kneeling down so that he’s face to face with him, “What are you doing out of the lunch room, kiddo?”

“Um…” Jeongguk starts nervously, “I-I saw you and Mr. Park leaving the caf-caf…cafeteria and I got worried.” He frowns at himself, obviously frustrated for still having difficulty with some words.

“Oh, well we’re okay sweetheart.” Jimin pipes in, appearing in the spot next to Yoongi, “How about you, me, and Mr. Min head back to the cafeteria, okay? I’m sure everyone is wondering where you went.”

Jeongguk nods and starts walking back with them when he speaks up out of nowhere again, causing Jimin to choke.

“What were you and Mr. Min doing in the hallway?”

“You-You saw that?” Yoongi breaths out hoarsely.

“Ah, just, don’t tell anyone alright, sweetheart? If you promise not to tell anyone I’ll bring you a cookie tomorrow to give you at lunch time, okay?”

Yoongi glares at him with a ‘why the hell are you bribing a kid??’ look, but Jeongguk doesn’t notice, or care; he simply perks up and nods excitedly, a big smile on his face.

Jimin smiles back at him, “Good!”

They get back to the cafeteria and sit Jeongguk back at his table, walking towards an empty table afterwards and sitting down with a huge sigh of relief.

“Not to be that person, hyung, but I told you so.” Jimin giggles at his hyung’s affronted expression.

“Yah! Park Jimin you’re such a brat.”

“Mhm but I’m your brat.” He says quietly, a smug grin on his face.

Yoongi can’t help but look at him with that of pure adoration, “That you are.”

The next day at lunch time, Jimin and Yoongi walk into the cafeteria, Jimin with a large chocolate chip cookie in his hand. He’s about to walk over to Jeongguk when he notices that he’s not alone. No, he’s sitting with Kim Taehyung, and the two are talking and giggling and pointing at Jimin and Yoongi. Jimin’s eyes widen and he turns slowly to Yoongi, who’s completely oblivious to what’s going on.

“Um… hyung?” He whispers.

Yoongi turns to him, confusion etched onto his face, “What is it Jiminie?”

Jimin points to where the two boys are sitting and laughing, and Yoongi’s eyes go comically wide when he sees them still pointing at the pair, “You don’t think…”

Jimin nods solemnly, “I think we may have a problem hyung.”

Jimin pulls Yoongi into the hallway right outside the café and starts pacing back and forth, “What are we gonna do? Jin hyung is gonna kill us oh my god hyung, I’m too young to die.”

Yoongi grabs Jimin’s shoulders and turns the younger boy towards him, “Calm down Jiminie, you’re so dramatic, hyung isn’t gonna kill us. We just have to talk to Jeongguk and Taehyung and convince them not to tell anyone else.”

Jimin takes a deep breath and nods, “Y-you’re right hyung! We just need to talk to them.” He breaks away from Yoongi’s grasp and marches back into the cafeteria and towards the table that the two boys are occupying.

“Yah, Jeongguk, Tae, can Mr. Min and I talk to you outside, please?”

Both boys’ eyes widen and they nod robotically.

When they’re all outside, Jimin resumes his pacing for a moment before stopping in front of the two boys, kneeling down to be at eye level with them.

“Ah, Jeongguk, I thought we told you yesterday not to tell anyone, I even brought you the cookie I mentioned.”

Jeongguk looks down sadly, “I-I’m sorry Mr. Park-ssi, I just wanted to tell Tae Tae ‘cuz- ‘cuz we’re best friends like you and Mr. Min! So I thought it would be okay. I didn’t mean to make you angry. Can I still have the cookie please Mr. Park? I promise I won’t tell anyone else!”

Yoongi steps in, “Ah, me.. me and Mr. Park aren’t best friends Jeonggukkie, I- we’re boyfriends. Best friends don’t do what you saw me and Mr. Park doing usually.”

Jeongguk seems to consider this for a moment, “So.. could me and Tae Tae be boyfriends then?”

Taehyung perks up at the words, “Ooooh please pleasee can we be boyfriends Ggukkie?? Then- then I’d get to be both your best friend and your boyfriend.” He holds up two chubby fingers, “That would make you and me extra special because most people only have one!”

Jimin’s eyes widen and he hits Yoongi’s arm, “N-no! You guys can’t be boyfriends.”

Taehyung pouts, sticking his lower lip out, “But, why not? You and Mr. Min are boyfriends and it seems really cool and special! I wanna be boyfriends with Ggukkie too, right Gguk?”

Jeongguk nods excitedly, looking back and forth between Yoongi and Jimin, “Please Mr. Park and Mr. Min?”

Jimin shakes his head quickly, “No! Me and Mr. Min are boyfriends because we’re older. Once you and Taehyung are older like me and Mr. Min are, then you guys can be boyfriends if you still want to be.”

Jeongguk’s frown deepens but Taehyung faces Jeongguk with a bright boxy smile on his face, “It’s okay Ggukkie! We can be boyfriends later! I’ll still be your best friend though, right?”

Jeongguk nods, a small smile beginning to form on his face, “Of course Tae Tae! You’ll be my best friend forever and ever! I can’t wait ‘til we’re older though so we can be boyfriends too.”

Jimin sighs and stands up, taking the cookie out from his backpack, “Good, now that we got that settled, you two are allowed to go back to your table now.” He hands the cookie to Jeongguk, who takes it excitedly, “And remember, no telling anyone, okay?”

“Got it Mr. Park!” Taehyung yells as he drags Jeongguk excitedly back to their table to eat the cookie.

Once they’re out of sight, Jimin turns to Yoongi, a glare on his face, “I can’t believe you told them we were boyfriends! Hyung you could’ve made that so much worse than it was by doing that.” He frowns.

Yoongi rolls his eyes, “But I didn’t, did I Jiminie?”

Jimin huffs, “Well, no, but-”

“Well then we’re okay, they won’t tell anyone, okay?”

Jimin frowns and crosses his arms over his chest, “You better be right about that, hyung.”

Yoongi was, in fact, notright about that. They walked in the next day to see Taehyung and Jeongguk sitting next to each other and holding hands.

Jimin pales and walked over to them, “Ah, Taehyung, Gguk, what.. what are you guys doing?” He’s not sure he’s ready for the answer.

Taehyung perks up and smiles big at Jimin, “After you and Mr. Min left us at the table, me and Ggukkie decided we wanted to tell out mommies and daddies that we were gonna be boyfriends when we were older.” Jeongguk nods excitedly next to him. Jimin pales more.

“What, um-”

“And, and our mommies said that- they cood ‘nd asked why we had to wait, so me and Tae Tae are boyfriends now!!”

“Mommy said that boyfriends hold hands ‘nd kiss on the cheeks ‘nd stuff too.” Taehyung says proudly and kisses a giggling Jeongguk’s cheek.

“So now we get to be super ex- extra special!” Jeongguk grins proudly.

Jimin feels like he’s gonna pass out, and Yoongi must sense that, because he comes and stands next to Jimin to take over, “Your- your parents… toldyou that you guys could be boyfriends?”

Taehyung nods, boxy smile taking over his face, “Yep! They cood and told us that it was super duper cute that we wanted to be boyfriends. They seemed shocked at first so I told them that I just wanted to be super best friends with Ggukkie cuz’ it would be more special ‘nd they started smiling and cooing ‘nd calling us cute!”

Jimin sighs in relief and smiles softly, “Well then I’m happy for you two then!”

Jeongguk blushes, getting shy all of a sudden, and hides his face in Taehyung’s neck.

Yoongi nearly dies at how cute the scene in front of him is and turns to Jimin to see his reaction, only to see the younger looking at him with love and adoration in his eyes.

Yoongi gives him the same look back.

The moment is ruined, however, when Yoongi sees Jin out of the corner of his eye, looking between Jeongguk and Taehyung and Jimin and Yoongi with an irritated look on his face.

Yoongi taps Jimin on the shoulder, “Uh, Jiminie, we might have a problem.” He points to where Jin is standing.

“Hm, what is it hyu-” He turns to look where his boyfriend is pointing and freezes when he sees his hyung’s expression.

“Oh God we’re so fucked.”

Once all the kids have gotten picked up, Jin silently motions for Jimin and Yoongi to follow him into his office, vlosing the door once all three of them are inside.

“Do either of you want to explain to me whyexactly Jeon Jeongguk and Kim Taehyung were holding hands??”

“A-ah, well you see Jin hyung, me and Yoongi may have possibly sorta gotten caught making out in the middle of the hallway by Jeongguk, who then told Taehyung. Then they uh… we- Yoongi explained to them that we were boyfriends but that they could be ‘cuz they’re too young, so uh, they told their parents that they were gonna be boyfriends when they got older, but they think that being boyfriends is just being best friends that hold hands and kiss each other on the cheeks, so they um… they got their parents blessing to be “boyfriends” and now they hold hands and stuff…”

Jin’s gaze softens and he lets out a sigh of relief when he hears that they aren’t actual boyfriends, which would be obsurd anyway since theyre 4 and 6 years old, but rubs at his temple anyway, “Aish, what am I supposed to do with you two?”

Yoongi grins sheepishly and rubs the back of his neck, “Not fire us, hopefully..?”

Jin rolls his eyes and shoos them away, “Get out of my office before I actually dostart to consider firing you two.” He says jokingly, chuckling to himself when the two boys’ eyes widen and they rush out of the office.

It’s the end of the summer, and the four couselors are sending their campers off to their parents sadly.

Jeongguk and Taehyung are two of the last campers to get picked up, Jeongguk sitting next to Taehyung, obviously tired, as the young boy is resting his head on Taehyung’s shoulder.

Jimin “aww”’s softly and watches them for a moment before Taehyung perks up and shakes Jeongguk awake when he sees his and his best friend’s parents walk through the door.

The two run to their respective parents and give them a hug.

They’re all about to leave together, when suddenly there’s two small bodies running towards Jimin and Yoongi, small arms trapping the two of them in a group hug.

Yoongi’s eyes widen in surprise before his face morphes into a soft expression and he’s hugging them back.

“I’m gonna miss you and Mr. Min, Mr. Park.” Taehyung sniffs, “We’ll be back next summer though, right Gguk??”

Jeongguk nods, a huge smile on his face.

The hug is over much to soon for Jimin’s liking. He’s gonna miss the two rascals a lot, no matter how much stress they gave him in the beginning of the summer.

Taehyung is running off again but Jeongguk stays a moment longer, staring at them with a look of indecision.

Yoongi is about to ask what’s wrong when Jeongguk opens his mouth to speak, “Thank you Mr. Min and Mr. Park.”

Then he’s running back to where his mom and Taehyung are, and the four of them walk out of the building and towards their cars, leaving Jimin and Yoongi staring after them in silence.

They both have soft smiles on their faces.

They return their name tags to Jin after the last kid leaves, then walk out to Jimin’s car, hands intertwined.

Neither of them can wait for the next summer, already excited about what the three months of camp will bring them.

 A light chime rang as the door opened to the shop.  You began to take a deep breath and looked up to give a customer a big smile. “Welcome! Let me know if you need anything!” You say as delightful as you could be only in realizing that the customer were customers. A couple at that. Reminding you it had been five years since you’ve been in a relationship which in fact, next month you would be turning 23 and still single.  Another sigh left my mouth as the couple went to check out the menu of the café.

“Y/N, I’m going to the market to pick up some more vanilla and lemon extract; we are out. Text me if you need anything” Yugyeom said as he was rushing out the door.

“Okay coo-!” you said but it was too late he was already out of the door. Yugyeom was your coworker and a good friend, he was always so sweet and a great person to talk to. It was just the two of you working at the shop for the next month until your boss came back from her trip to Japan.  

You Looked up at the clock to see that it was only one hour left before closing time which meant going back home watching TV and eating the cheesecake you have been wanting to eat since today was the day you got off your diet plan.  Same. Boring. Day off work.  Recently, you put in an application at Im and Tuan corporation because you wanted to make more money to help with finances, your current job at the café was nice but it was hard making a living on just a part time job salary. This was one of the biggest companies in Seoul Korea because they really catered to hiring younger adults and many of them who finished an internship there the turned out to be successful.

Conveniently, the company’s headquarters resided right in front of the café which was motivation every day to get an internship there but as the days went on you lost more and more confidence.                                

“Y/N, you sure you don’t mind closing by yourself? It’s late and you know I do not like you leaving the shop by yourself.” Yugyeom said with a worrisome tone.

“No no go ahead its fine! Didn’t you say Chris Brown is going to be coming on the Mnet award show as a special guest tonight at 9? If you stay you will miss it and I know you will die if you miss that!” you said while pushing him out the door.

“Yeah but I-“Yugyeom didn’t have a chance to finish after you shut the door and waved at him outside the clear door. He let out a laugh and give me finger hearts and went on his way.

Smiling while shaking your head you walk to the back to grab my purse and keys when you heard the light chime at the door. Yugyeom must have forgotten something, you felt bad for shoving him out the door like that.

“Hey did you forget something? You’re gonna be late watching the show.” You said walking back to the front of the shop, only to realize that Yugyeom wasn’t the one who walked in the door.

Two very handsome men stood before you looking around the shop before one of their eyes met yours. They were both wearing what looked like very expensive suits, designer watches and shoes.

“I’m..sorry we are closed” you said in a hushed tone. Looking at the two of them individually. Stunned that they would want to walk into a corner café when they looked like they only fancied fine dining.

“The door wasn’t locked.” The brunette said with a smile that showed his pearly whites.

“Mark, if she says that she is closed we have to respect that.” The brunette said with an eye smile.

“Ah actually it’s okay, I can make you something quick!” you start shuffling around to gather things.

The brunette smirked while the other sat in the chair looking at you with a curious look on his face.

“We didn’t actually come here for coffee...” The handsome man’s voice began to trail off. You turned looking at them with your head to the side. Silence arose as Mark got up from the seat and walked to stand beside the other handsome man. “We came here for you Y/N. You see we received your application and we would like to tell you personally that you have been accepted.”

Were you hearing what this man was saying? Then it hit you. The fancy suits, nice shoes the name Mark...Mark where have you heard that name from.

“I’m sorry where are my manners, my name is Im Jaebum and this is my partner Mark Tuan.

“Oh, my Gosh!” you immediately fell to the ground on your knees. “Is this for real? Why, why me?” you said looking up at them in disbelief.

“We have been watching you for a while and what is the word?” Jaebum looked at Mark to finish his thoughts.

“You are special” Mark said helping you up from the ground while giving your hand a light kiss and keeping eye contact with yours. Immediately, let out a light moan causing mark and Jaebum to both close their eyes and make a quick shiver.  

Then, without any warning, Mark takes your wrist and pushes you up against the wall. Quickly after JB pulled Mark off you and whispers in his ear quiet enough to where you could still hear him “Not yet, Be patient.” Mark nodded slowly and backed away.

“Well, we should be going on our way, but we would like for you to stop by the office tomorrow before you start work this Monday to fill out some last-minute paperwork and for any questions you might have for us. “Jaebum Smiled.

“Thank…you for coming and accepting my application! I will work very hard as an employee.” You bowed. Suddenly, Jaebum lifted your chin up so you could look at him. His features were absolutely gorgeous, his thick red hair slicked back with one strand lowered to his face to his sharp jaw line and his smooth plump lips inviting you in. “No no, the pleasure is all ours Ms. Y/N.”

You plopped on your bed staring at your ceiling, the events of tonight running through your head. You grabbed your pillow and buried your head deep in it screaming and squirming around like crazy. Was this for real? You got your dream job and got hired personally by the two most handsome and powerful rich bachelors in Seoul! Immediately you jumped up realizing you had your introductory Day tomorrow which was still considered your first day on your job. Opening your closet, you realized you haven’t tried on your work clothes in a while since you have been working for the café.

As you rummage through your closet you find a nice loose billowy blouse that had a nice V-neck a nice gray pencil skirt that when put on was just a bit too tight but it was going to have to work.

Getting up 10 minutes before your alarm goes off you start your morning routine by making some tea, taking a quick shower and curling your hair into loose curls and pinning your hair onto one side, putting on your black pumps and heading out of the door which you had a 15-minute walk from your apartment from the café you worked at which meant it was only 15 minutes to the company’s building.

Passing by the café you noticed Yugyeom opening up. “Hey!” You said while tapping Yugyeom on the shoulder. Yugyeom turned around and his eyes shot open. “Y/N?? Wow, you look amazing! You look so professional!” You giggled. “That’s because all your ever see me in is jeans and my chucks but thank you. Oh, snap it’s almost 12 I gotta go!” Waving and walking towards the building Yugyeom called out to you right before you crossed the street. “Y/N be careful okay?” Not sure what Yugyeom meant by that you nodded and kept walking towards the building.

Once inside your eyes scanned for the front desk, finding a silver haired boy working with a headset looking through the newest fashion magazines chewing on some gum. “Um Hi, I am Y/N I am the newest hire here, I have an appointment with Mr. Im today at 12:00.”

“Ah.” He said setting down his magazine, and touching his headset while phone dialing a number. “So, you are the one they’ve been talking about.” Before you could say something, he puts up his index finger. “Y/N is here to see you.” He paused. “yes, sir I will let her know.”  He hung up the phone and looked up at you with a playful smirk.  “Mr. Im will see you now. You will need this badge to get to the elevator.”

“Thank you so much you said taking the badge and walking to the elevator only to hear him say loud enough for you to hear.

“The game finally starts.”

I hope you enjoyed the first chapter of It’s a Bet! I have a lot of things in store for future chapters so stay tuned :)

July 28, 2018: Take Me on a Train to Busan

Did I spend money for a weekend just so I could say that I took a Train to Busan? Perhaps. Did I see any zombies in Daejeon and East Daegu Stations? Disappointed to say no. Did I have fun exploring the city of Busan, though? You bet! This is a blog on my weekend trip to Busan.

안녕하세요,

Friday, July 28, 2018: I had a few hours to spare since I got back to my dorm at 4 PM from my North-South Korean border excursion, since my Mugunghwa train from Seoul Station to Busan Station was leaving at 9:50 PM. It was a shame that I did not get the KTX train ticket that was going to get me to Busan within three hours, but I settled for the six-hour slow train ride to save ₩40,000-50,000 each way. I had planned to leave with Salli together at 9 PM even though her KTX train ride was scheduled at 10:35 PM.

"Better be safe and early", she would say.

I saved a picture of the Busan subway map before heading outside in front of Frontier to meet with Salli with the cicadas chirping loudly in the dark Seoul night. We stopped by the closest GS25 store to withdraw some money and buy some kimbap to munch on the way to Busan, but there weren't any of the ones I wanted.

Friday, July 28, 2018 - 8:40 PM: We were on the subway line to Seoul Station when I asked Salli when her KTX train was scheduled to leave.

"21:35! 10:35 PM. I have an hour to just hang around". "Salli-"

I didn't think she knew her mistake. It takes about half an hour from Anam Station to Seoul Station via the subway, and this was our first time going to Seoul Station, so we did not know our way around or even where to board our trains.

I had 50 minutes to spare; though, Salli did not - and she hadn't realized it yet.

"21:35 is 9:35 PM. Not 10:35". A look of panic after the realization overcame her face. Would she make it in time for her train? She would, right?

Bonnie, Davy, Thai, Kyle, Peggy, and Deedee left together earlier in the morning, but Peter, Salli and I couldn't. Peter signed up to participate in one of KU ISC's cultural event, Korean Folk Village; while Salli was supposed to participate in another cultural event - volunteer teaching, where she teaches children in kindergarten and preschool basic English conversational words and phrases. I, on the other hand, roasted myself under the hot North-South Korean sun on top of Dorasan.

Peter thought the Korean Folk Village was boring, Salli missed her volunteer teaching opportunity, and I got home 50 shades darker with a Korean reunification flag.

Peter left in the afternoon at 17:29 and already updated us that he arrived safely in Busan by the time Salli and I were in the subway en route to Seoul Station.

Friday, July 28, 2018 - 9:15 PM: We arrived in Seoul Station - Salli and I scrambled up the escalators with the hopes of finding our way to the train tracks with some time to spare. Salli had a KTX ticket while I had Mugunghwa - neither of us knew where to go. Were we going to be in different entrances? Different stations, perhaps? My tickets did not indicate if my train was leaving from Seoul Station - this was only based on deductions, since the rest of the group boarded their KTX trains to Busan in Seoul Station.

Salli ran towards the direction where the sign says "KTX". Nothing about Mugunghwa.

Friday, May 28, 2018 - 9:20 PM: We ran through Lotte Mart and Outlet with our luggages for the weekend, past people casually walking into the station and tourists arguing with vendors about the price of a souvenir. Salli and I managed to find the entrance to the train tracks, where she boarded her KTX train in Gate 9, while my Mugunghwa train was at Gate 4. Between the two of us was Gate 7, the gate where Gong Yoo boarded the KTX Train to Busan.

No signs of zombie attacks at all. I comfortably sat down in car 3 and placed my duffel bag on the overhead bin, reminiscent of the ones in China and Japan where I had to carry all three of my huge luggage across the train car drenched in sweat. Not in this trip - I vowed to myself to never over pack ever again.

I did not arrive to Busan Station until 3:20 AM, in which I felt guilty for keeping everybody awake waiting for me so they could open the door to our hostel. The moon illuminated the sky in blood - that night was the blood eclipse and Valentino tried to get everybody to watch the red moon with him at the edge of the Frontier balcony outside the humid Seoul night - Cara, Florence, and the endless sound of cicadas joined him.

Our hostel was a subway stop away from Busan Station - Choryang Station, and since the subways were not working at 3 AM, I walked for a few minutes and found myself at the footsteps of Welcome Busan Guest House, where Bonnie was waiting for me. I stopped by the CU store in front of the guest house to buy samgak kimbap (삼각 김밥) and a rice ball before heading to the common room where everybody was hanging - Thai, Kyle, Peter, Salli, and Davy. They were all waiting for the blood moon which was due to be in maximum view at 5:21 AM. We ate and waited until 4:20 AM before heading out to see the moon, but we were out of luck. The moon was too low in the sky that all the buildings were covering it. Valentino also contacted us that they were not able to see the moon since it was hiding behind the Anam trees. We walked back to our hostel and slept in our bunk beds, separated in two rooms by gender - and it seemed that we were the only ones there.

Thai, Kyle, and Davy fell asleep as soon as they touched their beds, though Peter stayed up to finish working on his group video project for his Mass Media class. Poor guy.

Saturday, July 28, 2018: An alarm went off from the bed under mine. It was 9 AM and I was sure that it also woke Peter up, who was sleeping on the top bunk across the room since his blanket started rustling at the sound of the alarm.

The alarm continued without interruption. One of the boys down there were definitely heavy sleepers. I decided to close my eyes for a bit.

I woke up two hours later to the same alarm ringing - did nobody turn it off? No - it was another alarm. Kyle had set up multiple alarms to wake him up, but none seemed to be working. I climbed down my bed, got ready, and sat by my duffel waiting for the cue for all of us to leave.

"Shall we go out?" Thai texted the group chat. "Sure." I responded. Nobody budged. It wasn't until Bonnie knocked on our door and asked us if we were ready for all the boys to get up and headed for the door.

We decided to go to Gamcheon Culture Village after sitting down for five minutes to weigh the pros and cons of taking the subway or paying for a taxi. We separated in two - one Korean speaker for each taxi ride. I directed the taxi driver to our location with Thai, Kyle, and Davy with me; while Peter took control of the other taxi with Salli, Deedee, Bonnie, and Peggy.

Walking up the steep main street of a picturesque Gamcheon-dong, we took pictures of the various arts and rooms on our way. We found a Room of Darkness, where the whole room was covered with black material preventing any light from penetrating in. We took pictures with the fish mural on the wall before heading out to view the brightly-painted houses that Gamcheon-dong is known for.

It took us a while to take pictures, while some of the people in the group stepped away to buy customized bracelets and souvenirs.

The Little Prince is apparently big in Gamcheon, since there were references of the book everywhere. There was even a long line to take a picture with him and his fox overlooking the colorful houses. We took our time individually posing with the prince and finally, a group picture. There was also stairs painted as book spines, as if the person is walking up towards a whimsical world of literature. There were murals of old books leading to the Cheon Deok Su Well. I could not show how much I appreciated how artistic Gamcheon was.

Salli bought a bracelet with her name engraved in Korean, so I also bought one to commemorate the weekend trip. As Bonnie was paying for her own souvenirs, she realized she lost her wallet. We went back to the flower tea shop she was in while we were busy taking pictures and found her wallet - everybody was relieved.

Busan was very hot, although not as humid as Seoul; so I ended up splurging some money on fruit-flavored Icees in interesting containers. I bought one shaped like a human girl's body to take pictures with in front of sceneries where most couples pose in front of.

We actually got separated away from Deedee and Peggy and got lost. They walked down the hill, while Bonnie, Thai, Davy, Kyle, Peter, Salli, and I took the narrow and artsy route, passing by exhibits and actual residential houses. We came across what they call the "Stairs to See Stars" - people usually start getting dizzy and "see stars" walking up the steep 148 steps.

We reached the exit and contacted Deedee and Peggy to meet us at Toseong Station, so we could head to Haeundae Beach (해운대해수욕장) together.

The subway stations in Busan was obviously different than those in Seoul - the K-Pop and idol cultures weren't as ubiquitous and the stations were a lot smaller - Seoul stations have a life on its own, with vendors, convenience stores, and its own economy - though Busan doesn't have that. They're present, but not as strong as Seoul.

Oh, and the jingle was a lot better. Seoul stations play a jingle to indicate that the subway train was coming, and Busan played some sort of jingle reminiscent of classical music. I was impressed.

One of the stations in Line 1 was Pusan National University Station, the school I originally was planning to go to before I was made aware of Korea University being an option. I started thinking about how different my South Korean life and experience would have been if I had not chosen Korea University and stayed with Pusan National University.

We arrived in Haeundae to crowds of attractive native Koreans in Busan and foreigners. There was an event in the middle of the street where the emcees were jokingly arguing and spitting jokes in their thick Busan accent - so thick that Peter, Salli, and I could not comprehend what they were saying.

They were giving out free beers at the packed Haeundae Beach - Hite Extra Cold with Kang Daniel's face plastered in big posters. Naturally, we all went in line to get half a cup of free beer.

We walked around the beach to take pictures and look at the amount of people floating at the shore in uniformed-red-and-yellow floaties. The breeze was cool and chilly, though the sun was piercing. At the other corner of Haeundae was Nice Day Land 2018, an event with artists like Zion.T and Hoya due to perform.

Salli was scheduled to leave Busan at 9 PM back to Seoul, since she had responsibilities to deal with Sunday morning, so we left the beach to eat at a nearby food place to end our night in Haeundae.

Gukbap (국밥) is the staple food in Busan - it is hot soup with rice. Besides gukbap (국잡), Busan is also known for its seafood and milmyeon (밀면), which is a dish similar to naengmyeon (냉면) but with thinner noodles. To further authenticate our Busan dining experience, we also ordered live eels to be cooked on top of our assorted gukbap (국밥).

Salli bid farewell after our dinner, headed back to our hostel to get her luggages before leaving to Busan Station. Peggy left with her since she was feeling tired and sleepy; though the rest of us decided to fit one more beach in our itinerary - Gwangalli Beach (광안리 해수욕장). We stopped by the convenience store at Haeundae Station for Thai to get his second round of cream puffs and for Bonnie to buy her frozen cup ice cream. The frozen cup of ice cream had to be placed in a machine, where it pushes the ice cream out of the cup into the customer's other cup or cone, but Bonnie's ice cream was so frozen, her cup exploded in the middle of the transfer.

We arrived at Gwangalli Beach, where the full moon was illuminating the beach and the bright colorful Gwangan Bridge was the subject of everybody's photos of the night.

We watched couples releasing small firecrackers and lighting up sparklers and decided we wanted to join in on the fun too. Busan Art College was hosting a festival in Gwangalli, which was our main music of the night.

Bonnie and I purchased some questionable fireworks, sparklers, chips and soju from the E-Mart closest to the Busan Art College festival. A couple dropped a bottle of soju from the refrigerator, close enough that I would have gotten hurt if I were a step closer to them - I had thought this was a sign that I should not be buying bottles of soju. Though, I got two for all of us to share. I got a cardboard from a group of people giving away paper fans outside to use as our beach towel to sit on the sand with overlooking the bright Gwangan Bridge, and we drank our soju and munched on our junk foods before lighting up the fireworks.

The instructions were all in Korean, and none of us knew what kind of fireworks it was. Was it the kind where it flies in the air and explodes? Was it the one you had to shoot in the air? We were fearful of the end result, so we secured the firework on the hole we dug on the sand and lit it up, just for us to realize it was a sparkling fountain. It illuminated the surrounding area giving it a nice yellow picturesque hue with the Gwangan Bridge as its backdrop before the fire died down.

We had no luck with the sparklers though - I think Bonnie and I got faulty ones.

After the beach, we headed to the closest coin noraebang (코인 노래방) to finish the night. Bonnie went out to buy some more chips and soju, but our sojus were confiscated when Bonnie was coming back - so the nice lady at the reception gave us two extra songs for free.

Bonnie, Peter, and Deedee sang Chinese songs like "Fairy Tale/童話/Tóng Huà" by Michael Wong (Wáng Guāng Liáng/王光良).

We asked for our soju back when we were leaving, so we ended up with an extra soju bottle for the rest of the night.

When we got back to our hostel, we went to the CU in front to buy some food and soju to end our night with. We managed to get a total of five soju bottles, three flavored alcoholic canned drinks, a 2.5L bottle of milkis, and a lot of snacks.

I introduced to Bonnie, Kyle, Peter, Thai, and Davy games like "fuck you", while Peter and Thai introduced to us "Ride the Bus", in which Thai, Davy, and I were so lucky to win, since Bonnie, Kyle, and Peter had to finish the whole deck of cards and taking more than ten shots.

We ended the night with our faces flushing.

Sunday, July 29, 2018: I had to wake up earlier than everybody else since I had a 9:30 train ride from Busan Station to Seoul Station.

As usual, Kyle's alarm woke everybody up at 8 AM, but not him.

I took the same six-hour Mugunghwa train ride where I arrived in Seoul Station at 3 PM. Peter took the slower KTX train and arrived at 3:50 PM. I waited for him at Seoul Station before eating at Seoul Tonkatsu (서울돈까스) until Thai and Kyle joined us at around 4:25 PM. Bonnie, Deedee, Davy, and Peggy arrived at the same time as Thai and Kyle, but did not realize we were eating at the Seoul Tonkatsu in Seoul Station before going ahead and taking the subway back to Anam.

After our brunch, Thai, Peter, and I separated from Kyle, who attended Yonsei University (Yuck! I know!) and went back to our home for the final week, Anam-dong. That was the start of our daily farewells, which will be separated into four blogs.

CORRUPTION CRISES IN CORPUS CHRISTI TEXAS

CORRUPTION- NUECES COUNTY- CORPUS CHRISTI TEXAS

 I made the videos yesterday- my friend Austin stopped by last night and we spent about 5 hours fellowshipping- so I didn’t get a chance to post until now.

Yes- out of the mouth of 2 witnesses shall every word be established- amen.

.Austin teaches

 For those who think these titles are too strong-

This area recently had a murder case- triple homicide I think. There were 4 witnesses [some women and I think kids were killed too].

 The case went to trial-

Witness 1- murdered in cold blood.

Witness 2- murdered in cold blood

Witness 3- murdered in cold blood.

Last witness decided not to testify- and the case was dropped.

 As far as I know- there have been zero arrests in the murders of the witnesses- and sad to say- the 4th witness will probably wind up killed too.

Now- where does this happen?

 Even in the mafia cases I talked about on the videos- if a witness is killed- they continue to go after the mobster.

If 2 are killed- they sometimes catch the killer.

If 3 are killed- all in a row- they will do something.

Usually protect the witnesses after the 1st killing.

 Especially after the 2nd murder.

But no- here in South Texas- after the 3rd witness is murdered [I believe some might have been women] they simply drop the case.

So- if you think I’m exaggerating- just re-read the above- below are some links-

 NOTE- Just look at this ONE case for a moment- you started with a triple homicide- as the trial progressed- you had 3 more witnesses murdered in cold blood. That brings it to 6. because the case was dropped- you now have 6 unsolved homicides- possibly 7- if they murder the last witness- and this is all in one case mind you. Some cities have 6 unsolved murders in one year- this area has 6- in one case!

 Sales said three witnesses who were inside of the house mysteriously died just weeks after the murders.[clip- full article below]

New King James Version (NKJV)

The Parable of the Talents

14 “For the kingdom of heaven is like a man traveling to a far country, who called his own servants and delivered his goods to them. 15 And to one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one, to each according to his own ability; and immediately he went on a journey.16 Then he who had received the five talents went and traded with them, and made another five talents. 17 And likewise he who had received two gained two more also. 18 But he who had received one went and dug in the ground, and hid his lord’s money. 19 After a long time the lord of those servants came and settled accounts with them.

20 “So he who had received five talents came and brought five other talents, saying, ‘Lord, you delivered to me five talents; look, I have gained five more talents besides them.’ 21 His lord said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant; you were faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.’22 He also who had received two talents came and said, ‘Lord, you delivered to me two talents; look, I have gained two more talents besides them.’ 23 His lord said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant; you have been faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.’

24 “Then he who had received the one talent came and said, ‘Lord, I knew you to be a hard man, reaping where you have not sown, and gathering where you have not scattered seed. 25 And I was afraid, and went and hid your talent in the ground. Look, there you have what isyours.’

26 “But his lord answered and said to him, ‘You wicked and lazy servant, you knew that I reap where I have not sown, and gather where I have not scattered seed. 27 So you ought to have deposited my money with the bankers, and at my coming I would have received back my own with interest. 28 Therefore take the talent from him, and give it to him who has ten talents.

29 ‘For to everyone who has, more will be given, and he will have abundance; but from him who does not have, even what he has will be taken away. 30 And cast the unprofitable servant into the outer darkness. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’
