Your legs tiredly carry you off the Music Bank stage after several rehearsals. You collapse onto the nearest chair in front you and rest your head back. You wonder how BTS managed to do this kind of thing all the time. The amount of practice you had been going through since this morning was exhausting. With your eyes closed all you wanted to do in that moment was go home rest. But you couldn't. Not today.

Not on the day you were going to make your debut stage.

The thought of it sends a thrill through your body, releasing you of your tiredness. When your eyes open again multiple stylists and make up artists swarm around you. While one fixes your hair, the other holds a fan for you while wiping the sweat off your face.

You stay silent as they the women pamper you, simply taking in long breaths for recovery.

"Uh, Y/N?"

You focus your eyes on your new manager, Hyung-woo, between the people surrounding you. "Yeah?"

"Your fans have started filling up the seating area now so we're going to go live in about 10 minutes okay?" he states, his black hair disheveled from all the running around he's been doing since early this morning. You and Hyung-woo have a general friendship. You hadn't grown so close to him yet but for the time that you spent with him a kind relationship was growing between the two of you.

"Fans?" you says, sitting up abruptly. A stylist softly hisses at your sudden movement. You mumble an apology and rise from your chair. Moving closer to the stage, you try to get a glimpse of the people sitting outside.

The entire seating area was packed, not one seat was left. Young boys and girls chat among each other excitedly, anticipation rising in the air. Big Hit hadn't released your light stick yet but almost everyone had brought a simple light stick prepared to cheer you on instead.

Your jaw drops to the ground at the sight. You turn to your manager, shocked "B-but how? My song was only released yesterday."

Hyung-woo shrugs "Maybe it's because your from the same company as BTS?"

Your mouth closes and you look towards the ground, subtly nodding. "Right."

The possibility of all those people only appearing to support someone else creates an unsettling feeling inside you. Your manager notices your immediate response and panics "Or it could be that your song was so good. Remember, Y/N? It debut at No.17 on the charts. That's pretty great."

A smile lifts your face at his reminder. "I like that reason better."

You goofily grin at him and he smiles back. "Okay, five minutes yeah?"

You nod, excited. But at the same time a huge amount of nervousness enters you, sinking you into the ground. You feel a small hand on your back and the familiar touch surprises you. You spin around, not clearly sure whether it was the person you were thinking of.

"Hey." Jungkook says.

"Oh, hey!"

The sight of your boyfriend standing in his casual clothes behind you lifts your heart up. He gives a loving hug, embracing your tired body. The warmth of his body calms you and you can feel yourself melting into his touch.

You pull back your head to look up at him. "What are you doing here?"

"To support my beautiful girlfriend, of course." He lightly kisses your forehead. "You're going to do great."

With the sudden appearance of Jungkook you now felt full of energy. He gave you the determination to do anything.

"Y/N! On stage now!" your manager shouts, rushing towards the camera men to check on everything.

"Oh gotta go." you release your arms from Jungkook's body but he doesn't release his.

"Jungkook, hon-"

He brings lips upon your and gives you a long sweet kiss. His lips curl around yours with a promise that everything was going to be okay. The kiss sent you into a whole new universe, the unusual feeling lifting your feet off the floor.

He pulls back from the short kiss and stares down at you. "I'll be here when you finish."

His hands lets go of you and he squeezes your hands, smiling comfortingly. You bite your lip and smile back giddily. You turn on your heel and climb onto the stage.

Fans immediately roar at your appearance. The support sends an even bigger smile to your face. You wave happily and greet your fans, introducing yourself formally.

Getting into position you take a quick glance to the side of the stage to see Jungkook still standing there, watching you.

A comforting feeling enters you. For some reason, all you could think about in that moment was how Jimin used to be the one standing there to support you. How he used to comfort you and encourage you whenever you doubted yourself. But those habits of his ended a long time ago. No matter how many times you wished for him to be the one to encourage you, he was never going to treat you with the same affection again.

.

The elevator tings, notifying you of your destination. As the doors open you take a step out and walk down the the hall of the Big Hit building. You had gotten a call, you had definitely changed your ringtone by now, from Bang PD nim requesting your presence in his office.

You didn't feel nervous or wondered what it was about since most of the time these days you always had something to discuss with him about your career. You grew glad that you now had more to talk about with him than just dance choreography for BTS. Your purpose in the Big Hit family was growing.

Nearing his office you find Jungkook walking down the same hallway towards you, his head dipped as he plays on his phone. You don't call his name, instead you stand still and wait for him to blindly bump into you.

He nears you slowly, shuffling one step at a time as his thumbs work across his screen. His eyebrows furrowed as he concentrates. Closing towards you he mumbles a "yes!" as his phone creates a sound of success. His body bumps into yours and he fumbles back, looking up at you with big confused eyes.

When he realizes its you his eyes relax and he grins widely. "Noona."

You chuckle at him "Has another game replaced your precious Overwatch?"

He switches off his phone and slides it into his pocket, laughing cutely. "No, not really."

His eyes grow small as his wide smile creates creases next to his eyes. You adored the cute bunny side of Jungkook, always forgetting he was a 20 year old grown man.

"We do need to play sometime though." he says.

"We do," you agree "Tonight at you place?"

"Sure, babe." he winks at you.

You place a hand on the door handle of the office. "Oh, you were called to see Bang PD nim as well?"

You pause, looking at him with a questioning look "As well?"

The door opens, catching you and Jungkook staring questioningly at each other. Hyung-woo holds the door open. "You guys coming in?" he asks.

You hesitantly enter the office. One of BTS's mangers also happened to be present in the room. Bang PD nim sat upon his high chair, defying his short figure. As Jungkook enters the office and stands behind you, Bang PD nim doesn't acknowledge either of your presences. Instead he keeps his eyes focused on the TV playing and turns up the volume.

"A new couple has been revealed in the Kpop industry. And citizens everywhere are shocked." a short woman with a heavily make up caked face announces excitedly.

A small clip suddenly appears on the screen. The footage is blurry but it was clear enough to see what was going on. A tiny gasp escapes your mouth at the sight. You panic as the video of you and Jungkook kissing backstage plays. You turn to him, he gives you a small worried glance and returns to the TV. He slides his fingers with yours and squeezes your hand.

Bang PD nim switches off the TV and spins around to face the two of you with a blank face. Hyung-woo looks between the both of you, silently.

The man in the chair clears his throat and then smiles unexpectedly. His loud laugh breaks the silence making you jump. "Why do you look so nervous?" he asks, brightly "I'm not mad or anything."

Jungkook's eyebrows furrow in confusion. "You're not?"

"No, of course not. I mean maybe a little annoyed because I did tell you both to keep it on the low but hey!" he exclaims loudly "Your relationship has been given a great response!"

You give your manager a confused look and he gives you a small reassuring smile.

"Everyone's loving the whole BTS's maknae dating an charismatic, Italian-American noona. They love it!" he throws his hands in the air at his last sentence. You had never seen him smile so wildly.

Your shoulders relax. You and Jungkook give each other grateful looks, still holding hands.

"On the plus side your new album's sales has rocketed up."

You look away from Jungkook and stare at Bang PD nim. "What?" you say in confusion "Why?"

Bang PD nim chuckles lightly "Y/N, isn't it obvious? Why wouldn't anyone not want to listen to your song after finding out your dating one of the hottest idols out there?"

The unsettling feeling returns from this morning. Hyung-woo looks at you nervously, shaking his head as if to say what Bang PD nim was saying wasn't true. But you didn't believe him. You turn to your boss with a scowl. "So you're saying all of the success that my career will now get will be because I'm dating the world's most famous maknae?"

You emphasize the sarcasm on your last few words, disregarding the fact that Jungkook was standing right next to you. Jungkook studies your expression, he wasn't hurt by your words or your tone. He's worried that you're the one who's hurt and he could tell how much your anger was building up.

Bang PD nim notices your anger as well and drops his smile "I mean.." he pauses, not knowing what to say to your sudden change in reaction "Not all but mostly, yeah. It's just how it is, Y/N."

You roll your eyes and scoff at him. You turn on your heel and storm out of the room, shrugging off Jungkook's hand and ignoring the calls of your name. You storm down the hall, feeling a mixture of anger and humiliation as you approach the elevator.

"Noona!"

You ignore Jungkook's voice and push the elevator button multiple times impatiently. The elevator tings and the doors open. Jungkook calls your name again and runs towards you, desperately. He grabs your wrist before you can enter the elevator and spins you around.

"Let go of me, Jungkook!" you force your wrist out of his hand but his strong grip holds you.

"Babe, please. Just listen to me." he says calmly, looking at you intently. You struggle against his grip, pushing all of your weight away from him.

"Don't call me that! I'm not your babe!" you shout at him. You stop flailing around and stand up straight to look at him.

He lets go of your wrist and looks at you, hurt. His eyes silently rest on yours. You realize what you said but you don't care. You were so mad at this point you didn't care about anything that was about to come out of your mouth.

"Ba-. Noona..." he says, softly. "I'm sorry, I really am."

"No, you're not." you argue, fuming "I bet your enjoying this. I bet you're enjoying the fact that you're so superior that you're the reason anyone will ever look at me."

He blinks, taken back by your words. "That's not true. I-"

"Do you not get it, Jungkook?!" you shout at him "I've had this dream since I was a little girl. I tried to achieve from a young age but I never succeeded. So I gave up, and it tore me apart."

Tears start welling up in your eyes. The truth of yours words were hurting the both of you. "But you didn't, you got is so easy from such a young age."

Jungkook notices how emotional you were getting and his sad eyes watch you as you continue to speak.

"And now, after going through so much to be where I am today. After finally deciding to pursue my dream again." your voice breaks "It all gets ripped apart by my own boyfriend."

He watches you break out into tears. All he wanted to do was hold you. Even though your words were cutting him like knives, nothing hurt him more than seeing you like this. He reaches a hand out but you flinch away. Tears were now streaming down your face. You wipe away your tears and look away, not able to take in your boyfriend's pained expression.

"This dream really isn't for me, is it?" you chuckle heartlessly "People will never see me as a star will they?"

Your questions hang in the air until Jungkook reaches up to grab them. He moves towards you and hugs you, pulling you into his embrace. This time you don't resist him but you don't hug him back either. You rest in his arms, while your hands stay limply by your side. He holds you as cry out your silent tears onto his chest.

A few minutes of silence pass by and Jungkook pulls away from you, both hands on your shoulders. "Noona, look at me."

You sniff and wipe away your tears, ignoring him. "Noona...please."

You swallow and look up to meet his concerned eyes. "I never had it easy. Noona."

Your eyes slowly blink, waiting for him to explain. "It took us three years until people actually started noticing us. Our company wasn't always this rich and well managed." he explains. "There were so many times where all of us almost gave up, but we never did."

You feel a sense of sympathy at his words. You bite your lip, ashamed and look down.

"This industry is not easy, and people aren't always going to support what you want them to support. But.." he lifts up your chin for you to look at him again "I support you, Y/N."

You feel yourself tearing up again, but this time for a different reason.

"And I know that may not mean a lot to you but-"

You silence his words with your lips, kissing him gently. He slowly responds to the soft kiss. His hands leave your shoulders to cup your face. You hook your arms around his neck and slowly deepen the kiss. His insistent mouth parts your shaking lips, sending wild shivers along your nerves, evoking you from your sensations you never knew you were capable of feeling. Your tongues tangle with each other as you explore each others mouth. Saliva's mixing, sensational feelings growing.

Jungkook breaks the passionate kiss and your eyes shoot open. He looks down at you, eyelids heavy. As you both stare into each other's a passionate feeling hits you hard and creates butterflies in your stomach.

As if Jungkook read your mind he speaks out your feeling.

"I love you."

You feel a rush of radiance as you cherish his sweet words, repeating them over and over in your head. You beam at him.

"I love you too, Jeon Jungkook."
