As soon as you got home from work the day before, you pretty much lunged straight onto your bed and passed out. 

It had been a struggle keeping your eyes open for the entire day, it felt like there were weights attached to your eyelashes. 

You were so far beyond any reasonable point of exhaustion and all because of some idiotic masked boy.

By the time you'd woken up from your 'nap', it was 4 am. 

You let out the most ungodly groan in existence at the disgusting time of morning your body had chosen to wake you up at, rubbing at your empty stomach as if it would somehow fix it.

Despite the sun not coming up yet and your entire apartment still being covered with darkness, you felt somewhat energetic and managed to spring straight out of bed without tripping over all the mess on the floor. 

Unlocking your phone and hissing at the back-light of the screen practically burning your eyes out, you weren't even surprised to see the notification from your 'Genius' pop up.

Of course..

You opened up the chat screen, wondering what smug new message he's come up with this time.

-

[18:34] 🔥Black Coffee Asshole🔥: Get some proper sleep tonight, Yoongi's girl. Take care of yourself.

-

Wow... That's really kind of sweet of him?

You couldn't help but smile to yourself as you typed out a reply, low-key making sure not to come across as too happy in your message and give away the clear fact that this boy really did have a hold over your emotions. 

I can feel myself becoming cringier by the day...

-

[04:15] In Denial💜:
Thanks for that... I guess.
I'll see you later.

-

You took your sweet time eating breakfast, showering and getting ready for work this early morning, blaring BTS as loud as your speakers permitted.

My neighbours already hate me, so why the hell not...

You opted to style your hair a little differently with some wavy curls and took the extra time to perfect all of your make-up, rather than rage-slapping it onto your face at an ungodly speed like you usually do in the mornings, given that you had 3 full hours to kill before starting work.

This is crazy...

Imagine how productive I would be if I woke up at this time every day....

But that thought was quickly dispelled, as you chuckled at the obvious realization that you've always been a hopeless morning person. 

-

You skipped into work with 10 minutes to spare, almost flooring Ji-eun at the shock of showing up early for the second time this week. 

"Yah! What is this?" she smirked as she slammed her hands on her hips, getting a good look at you. "You come in yesterday looking like hell and now your prancing into work early, looking all amazing again?"

"You're one to talk!" you sarcastically snapped back, flicking your hair off your shoulders with your hand. "We both looked like hell yesterday and then here we are, as amazing as ever!"

You giggled as you walked over to your best friend, tugging at the hair that she'd clearly spent a a long time in perfecting, before throwing your bag down and settling into the start of your shift. 

"This really is such a huge difference from the girl who was too scared to serve your mysterious coffee guy yesterday." Ji-eun piped up when you joined her at the front counter.

Not knowing how to respond to her comment, you simply shrugged your shoulders at her. You weren't sure if it was the solid sleep you'd gotten the night before, or something else like a change in attitude. 

What ever it was, you definitely felt a lot more energetic than usual, skipping over to the stereo and turning the music up louder as it blared BTS through the whole cafe. 

As it was just turning 7 am now, you saved Ji-eun the trouble of walking to the front door to unlock it and flip the open sign over, making a few embarrassing dance moves to the music along the way.

But as you'd turned around from the door midway through a dance, you heard the doorbell chime behind you as someone was walking through. 

Damn, 7 am on the dot? 

Someone's eager for their morning coffee...

You swung your head around to greet whoever had just entered the cafe and you're sure you felt your soul leave your body in that moment. 

"W-what are you doing here?" the words left your mouth before you were able to properly think about it. 

"Jeez, that's no way to greet a customer, Yoongi's girl."

Sure enough and as smug as ever, Mr 742 had just walked into the cafe and witnessed your hideous dancing for the second time now. 

Crap

All of that energy, all of that positivity that was flowing through you only moments before, you felt slowly drain away from you as you stood there frozen in the middle of the cafe. 

"Well, don't stop because of me!" He teased. 

You could have sworn you heard him smirking through his mask as he walked further into the cafe until he was standing only inches away from you.

Your voice caught in the back of your throat as your body stiffened, not used to this kind of close proximity. 

A few moments passed in total awkward silence before it all became too much for you to handle. 

You quickly spun around and almost sprinted back to the safety of the kitchen, with the front counter acting as some kind of protective barrier between you and your 'Genius'.

He was quick to follow you over to the counter, shaking his head slightly like he was getting his fill of amusement for the day.  

Complete silence filled the empty cafe as the stereo paused between changing songs, but a few moments later 'Boy With Luv' by BTS began playing, bringing some light once more into the atmosphere. 

"Why did you come early today?" You rephrased your last question, seeing it as now or never for you to get some answers. 

"I drove here today," Mr 742 leaned onto the counter, setting down his car keys and taking his sunglasses of his face. "Believe it or not, but I don't like being so predictable..."

"Makes sense..." you paused, perking up an eyebrow.  "So what'll it be then? Another black coffee for my 'Black Coffee Asshole'?" 

For a short moment you were so surprised, proud even, by your own confidence that was suddenly appearing. 

"Oh so I'm yours now, am I?" he was quick to fire back, completely catching you off guard. 

"n-no... that's not what I mean-"

"I thought you were Yoongi's girl?" he laughed, pulling the change out of his pockets and sending you a wink. "No complaints here though."

Oh my god, I can never win with him!

Before you could restrain yourself, the words had already blurted out of your mouth.

"Why don't you take that mask off your face already, you antisocial swine?!" you snapped, not only shocking Mr 742 with your out-of-line comment, but yourself also. 

Oh sh*t.

Your eyes grew wide as your brain struggled to think of what to do next. 

In a panic you ran over to the coffee machine, fumbling to make his order and not noticing the boy still stood at the front counter who was getting a decent laugh out of you.

You tried to calm your nerves down, clearly having gone a little overboard with the confidence this morning and now paying the consequences for it.

This is why I'm not supposed to wake up so early!

It's a f**king curse!

Too much in your own thoughts trying to recover this situation, you failed to notice there was now another man stood at the front counter, wanting to place an order. 

"Never mind what I was doing, I'll just serve this customer will I?!" Ji-eun sarcastically snapped in your direction, dashing over to the front counter. 

"Sorry for the wait! What can I get for you?"

You could hear her shamelessly flirting with the man at the counter all the way from the coffee machine, so you looked up to see just who the lucky guy was. 

Where have I seen him before?

Wait a second... 

Isn't that the same guy from yesterday?

You watched on as the second mysteriously masked boy curved his eyes into a smile while completing his order and then joined his friend who was sitting down at one of the tables.

Finishing both of their orders, you reluctantly called out to your 'Genius' to come and collect both of their drinks, hoping he had somehow forgotten your idiotic outburst only moments before. 

He swiftly made his way to the front counter with his friend following closely behind him, picking up both coffees from out of your hands. 

You couldn't help but get lost momentarily in his gaze as he scrunched his eyes into an unreadable smile. 

Mr 742's friend suddenly broke the silence and the beginnings of what seemed to be a stare-off between the two of you, sending you back into reality.

"So this is the girl you're always talking about?" he said, now standing next to his friend at the front counter. "Yoongi's girl, right?"

You felt your face instantly turn bright red, shocked that he would actually talk about you and with that name.

I'm going to kill him!

"Yep, that's the one!" Mr 742 chuckled, puffing his chest out slightly as if he was somehow proud of it. 

"Well it's nice to finally meet you!" his friend replied sweetly, his eyes turning into adorable half-moon smiles.

"I see the face mask is a common trend in your group," You snapped back with an unamused face. "Does this one come without a name also?"

"What, afraid I'll be hideously deformed or something?" Mr 742 teased, handing his friend his hot coffee. "I'm sorry, but you haven't unlocked that level yet."

Levels?

What is this, a video game?

Just how many levels are there...!?

The new unnamed acquaintance flicked his head amusingly between your 'Genius' and yourself, seemingly fascinated by the display that was happening before him, causing you to grow a little insecure over this entire scene. 

"Well it's been fun, Yoongi's girl. I'll see you next time," he spoke this time with a little more sincerity in his voice, reminding you that he isn't in fact always so bad. 

The pair of masked boys turned around and made their way out of the cafe before you knew it and your best friend was quick to pounce on your shoulders once the door had flung shut. 

"Yah! How ridiculously cute was his friend?!" Ji-eun gushed as if she was just put under some kind of spell. "They should come here more often!"

"Girl, you don't even know what he looks like!" you fired back, a smirk tugging at the corners of your mouth at the girl who was clearly lost in her own thoughts. 

"And like you can talk!" she laughed sarcastically. "That boy's had you bewitched for weeks now and you're still no closer to seeing his face or learning his name."

"Ugh, don't remind me..." you groaned.

Rolling your head up to read the time on the clock, you let out an inaudible sob at how slow today was likely to go, but your thoughts were quickly interrupted when you felt your phone buzz inside your pocket. 

Clicking onto the notification before you could see who it was from, your phone opened up to an all too familiar chat screen.

Hello Angels!

Another long chapter today! Thanks for sticking around!!
I hope ya'll are all enjoying where it's going so far ^^
As always, please leave lots of comments, feedback or votes and let me know what you think!

Wattpad can be such a BUZZKILL sometimes when it won't let me upload all of my PERFECT GIFS I've collected. So I'll continue to hunt the perfect GIF's under 3MB until something lets up. 

Following on from my last few chapters, I'd like to ask which BTS choreography is your favourite? 

As much as I love and appreciate all of their dance routines on so many levels(being a dancer from what feels like another life-time ago), my favourite would have to be Blood Sweat and Tears. 
I'm sorry, but J-Hope and Jimin's hypnotizing moves and crotch grabs really sucked me in lmao.

xoxo Katie ❤
