(1) There
This was it
Today is the day you began your work as an intern for one of the biggest production companies in the world, BigHit Entertainment.
You're dressed in your best business casual and you've got everything you needed to make your lasting impression.
When you leave your apartment and head down to get a taxi, you realize that it's raining so you rush back up and grab an umbrella.
As you make your way back down you notice that you're cutting it a bit close to being late so you decide that you had too much on the line and begin to jog to the edge of the sidewalk.
Frantically you raised your arms up and only after moments you managed to hail a cab.
With a sigh of relief, you reach for the handle
...but someone's hand was already on it.
Your brows furrowed in confusion and you instinctively pulled your hand away with a frown.
"Uhm. Excuse me I got this taxi first..." you start, looking up only to see glossy dark hair together with hints of the creamiest looking skin you've ever laid eyes on.
The man was so fair that he almost glowed and your frown deepened, sure that skin like his was actually illegal on a man.
It almost made you jealous of your own plain appearance.
Without being too obvious you take note of his good sense of style as well and then turn back to his face however his features were covered by his sunglasses and a black mask which covered almost the entirety of his face.
Yet even with all his features hidden, he emitted an air of confidence and assurance that was rare to find.
You felt your heart thud in excitement, though you couldn't really say why.
He carried himself almost as if he could have been every girl's dream of a charming, good looking, se-
"Hands off. I need this cab more than you right now, I'm running late. Grab another one." He says rudely.
-lfish jerk with no manners whatsoever.
Did you say dream? More like nightmare. What kind of overconfident jerk thought he could get away with an attitude like that.
You growl lowly and then look straight at his face, pleased when he stiffened in surprise at your sudden change of demeanor
You shot him a wicked smile "No you look here buddy, I'm running late so why don't you get your hands off because I got this taxi first." You argued with a falsely sugar sweet tone in your condescending words.
Unfortunately for you, he was just as stubborn. "I have no time to argue with you, just find another taxi. Look, I'll even pay for it." He muttered annoyedly and begins to hand you some cash but you, being the prideful human being you were, couldn't accept that.
"I don't want your damn money I want my taxi." You say petulantly while reaching for the handle once more.
The man's eyes narrow and before he could think over his actions, he instinctively nudged you away.
Not used to your new shoes however, you stumble and fall flat on your sleeves, ruining your new coat and you gasp, narrowing your eyes at the rude stranger.
He only shoots you a triumphant smirk, or what you imagined was one behind his mask, and proceeds to get into the taxi before rolling down the window.
"Guess you better change. I'd say I was sorry but you brought this onto yourself." He murmured with a shrug and before you could curse at him, he rolled the window up and told the driver where to go.
In your head you weighed the pros and cons of getting charged with murder and if you could pull it off, but you settle for shooting the back of the departing car a half hearted glare instead.
As the cab drives away, you don't see the slight guilt showing on stranger's face...
"Ugh. Just my day... " you groan while pushing yourself off the ground. You wait impatiently on the sidewalk and soon enough another cab rounded the corner of the street you were standing on.
"TAXI!" You shout, waving your hand at the next vacant cab that approached you.
Inside you wonder why you had to fight the stranger over the taxi in the first place. You could have let him have it, since it wasn't really difficult for you to get another either...
As you silently contemplated what happened, you glance at your watch and your eyes widen.
"Damn I'm so late. Way to make a great first impression..." you cringed.
The moment the cab pulled over, you frantically got out, shoving wads of cash in the drivers hand with a rushed thank you and then you ran up the steps to the building.
You panted slightly from the short sprint and took a moment to catch your breath before walking inside. Shrugging off your now muddy coat, you head up to the floor that was instructed to you by your new manager while thinking of excusable reasons for being late.
Passing the receptionist she urges you inside and you take another deep breath while smoothening out your blouse.
You recognize your manager from afar and so does he as he beckons you over. When you get close enough you bow apologetically. "I'm so sorry sir for being late on my first day, the rain made it almost impossible for me to find my way here. Although that's not an excuse, it won't happen again"
He waves you off lightheartedly. "Good. Don't worry about it too much. It only becomes a problem if you end up doing this often. Anyways, our usual man who sees to the boys' necessities just quit so from now on you'll be taking his place. At least until we can find a replacement, then we can get you placed with one of our producers..." he explains and continues speaking but you zone him out.
"Wait...our boys?..." your eyes widened in understanding "Boys as in..."
Your thoughts were cut off when you hear a group of guys joking loudly from around the corner of the room and you promptly stopped breathing.
It was actually BTS, the one group you had been actively following since they debuted in 2013 when you found out that they had made an effort to produce their own music.
Half the reason why you chose to do your internship in BigHit in the first place was to understand how they created the music you cherished and the other half was so you could one day learn how to do the same.
You never in your wildest dreams would have imagined that you'd see them at all whilst working here due to their busy schedule and the sheer amount of other people working in the company. It seemed like fate had other plans for you though...
———————————————
Jimin perks up when he sees an unfamiliar woman from the distance and whispers to his members "야! 여러분... 이 귀여운 사람은 누구야?... (Guys.. who's this cute person?...)"
"헐... 그녀가 진짜귀여워... 흠 몰라... 그냥 우리 자기소개 할래? 아니면?... (Whoa. She really is cute. Hmm I don't know.. should we just introduce ourselves? Or?...)" Tae adds on unsurely and the others shoot each other pointed looks.
Namjoon claps his hand in affirmation. "그래. 빨리와 (Okay. come on and hurry over)"
When they got closer, Yoongi's just about choked in shock from behind his disguise. "설마... 그 사람... (No way... that person...)"
Jin glances at Yoongi, surprised that the member who usually didn't care about anything other than his work had reacted so openly to this new person. "야 윤기아 무슨말이야? (Ya. Yoongi what did you say?)"
He shook his head and swallowed nervously, but quickly schooled his expression. "아무것도 아니요 형... (Nothing...)"
Jungkook's eyes brighten up in realization. "형 (hyung)~ she might be working for the company!"
Hoseok looks up at that. "Hmm this is new...we haven't had a girl this young working in our division in a while now; this might be fun." He finishes with his trademark grin.
———————————————
The boys walk towards you and you can't help but remain speechless. You've literally dreamed about a day like this and now that it was here, you didn't have time to prepare yourself.
This couldn't be happening. You look over each one of them carefully, all 7 of them looked so relaxed and casual. It was refreshing to see them look normal as opposed to the transformed idols you watched on screen.
Only Yoongi seemed to be trailing behind the others and you wonder why. You look over Hoseok and Jungkook's shoulder an-
"NO. NO FRIGGEN WAY. YOU-"
The boys mistake your exclamation as the usual reaction they seem to draw from every breathing woman and smile confidently.
Hoseok smiles smugly and opens his mouth. "Heh seems like she's one of our fans tha-"
"YOU, YOU JERK" you shout, pointing your fingers accusingly.
All the guys except Yoongi look appalled at your blunt statement.
Ignoring them, you continue, your focus solely on the man who began to fidget uncomfortably. "YOU... THE TAXI.. My coat... you litttle..." you huffed incoherently and only when you calmed down from your outburst did you freeze.
You look around and everyone's mouths were dropped open in astonishment. It dawned to you then that you were making quite the scene.
You gasp and embarrassedly slapped your hands over your mouth. "Oh my god. I didn't mean...I mean that I..."
Your voice gradually goes lower and you curse inwardly for your lack of filter.
Seriously thinking you were going to lose your job before it had even begun, you get ready to profusely apologize again.
"Hmm she's cute when she's pissed...what are the chances we'd bump into each other again?...maybe Hoseok was right this might be more fun than I thought..." Yoongi thinks, intrigued about the refreshing reaction he had gotten from you.
It went unsaid that when people usually found out who they really were under their disguise, they would do a 180 and become utterly different people -they would look at the boys like trophies rather than people and none could genuinely tell the boys off when they were being difficult.
So it came to a surprise to Yoongi that even after you found out about who he was, you still managed to curse at him like a spitfire instead of shying away.
He saw the fire in your eyes and how your nose scrunched up when you were angry, making him smile to himself.
However, he quickly brought back his impassive face before anyone caught on and his brows furrowed in confusion.
He couldn't let one strange woman lower his guard down...it wouldn't do to trust her so easily. That would just be stupid of him so he cleared his throat and turned your way again.
Instead of apologizing, Yoongi smirked smugly.
It was easier to push people away.
"Look who it is. Guess you didn't go back to change huh" he drawled mockingly while pointedly glancing at the coat you stuffed in your bag.
Your eyes narrowed ever so slightly at his little jab
"This little...forget about apologizing. He might be someone I admire but I'm going to wipe that damn smirk off his face. Even if he is THE Min Yoongi. " you thought while clenching your fists.
Recovering quickly, you sweetly smirk back at him and take your time to appraise him before snubbing him off "...and look who it is. The man who shoves people over, ruins their coat, and steals their taxis. Small world isn't it..." you finished with a nonchalant shrug while glancing at your nails.
It registered in the deep recess of your conscience that you were being way too childish but Yoongi has a way at ticking you off more easily than anyone had been able to before.
If it was even possible, the other members mouths drop open even wider at your statement as they glanced between you two back and forth; half in disbelief that the new girl didn't kiss their asses like they had expected and half because Yoongi had actually reacted to your jibes and countered them.
Suddenly Jungkook cracks up, breaking up the silent atmosphere. "Hyung! No way! Didn't you brag about how you were the perfect gentleman?" He teased with a knowing grin, secretly happy when Yoongi shot him a scowl.
It meant that he felt something
Not one to let such a rare opportunity go to waste, Jimin moves to get Yoongi in a chokehold and then speaks up to you. "I'll avenge you and teach Yoongi Hyung a lesson!"
He playfully shoots you one of his renowned eyes smiles and winks. "Nobody this cute deserves to be-" he paused and then his brows furrowed "...wait. What's your name?..." he finished with a sheepish smile.
You realize you made another mistake and forgot to even introduce yourself. "At this rate I'm not even going to last the day..." you think with a inner face palm.
You rubbed the back of your head nervously "Oh.. uhm I'm sorry I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Y/N and I'll be starting my internship here today -hopefully...as of today I'll be helping you guys with your needs until someone can replace me but I was originally taken in to improve my understanding of music production. Please take care of me and again, I'm sorry about earlier" you end and then bow slightly, finally remembering how to use your manners.
Jin smiles kindly at you. "Don't worry about it. We're used to this...almost everyday actually..." he brushed you off but you don't miss the surreptitiously pointed look he shoots his stoic member.
Before you could think about it properly, you heard your name being called out.
Taehyung studied you carefully. "...But Y/N how old are you... you look pretty young to be working already..." he pointed out and walked your way.
He leaned towards your face, having to crouch slightly because of how tall he was and you feel your face grow hot, flustered by how close he was. Taehyung shoots you a teasing look, enjoying the effect he was having on you.
Not used to all the attention around you, you nervously laugh while smoothly backing away. "Oh uhm I just turned 19. I'm taking some time off from University to do this..."
"Hmm interesting I'll need to find out how she even got this internship...but music production? Namjoon's going to like this too..." Yoongi thought but he pretended to remain impassive of the conversation around him.
Surreptitiously while everyone else was talking, he stole another glance at you... all without anyone noticing, except Leader Mon.
With his eyebrows raised he realized that there may still be hope for the member he had been worrying the most about. "Good. It's been a while since Yoongi relaxed and opened up to us...He works too hard..." Joon thought solemnly and his gaze softened when he appraised you with a soft smile.
Eventually you had said all your pleasantries and you excused yourself to begin working.
Throughout the day you had been trained on the do's and dont's as BTS's new PA and then made sure to study their upcoming schedules and itinerary for the next month.
The day passed by quickly for you. When you weren't trying to learn about who the point of contact was for things like the boy's caterers or stylists or even their doctors, you got to really get to know and understand the guys. Being their PA meant that you needed to be with them for most of the day and they were completely different from what you expected.
Especially Yoongi.
You tried to keep him out of your mind the whole day yet you couldn't help but steal glances at him every now and then.
You guys barely talked but every time you took a peak at him you could have sworn he was looking at you first.
Your biggest concern was about how different his personality was off camera. The other members were mostly the same off camera as they were on camera, minus the presence of their more crude jokes and the lack of formal speech around each other.
Yoongi however, kept to himself most of the time and although you imagined him to be more introverted than the rest, he had surprised you by even keeping to himself when with the rest of his members.
You don't know why that worried you more than you liked to admit, especially because he had been everything but nice to you since you've started.
The boys left a little while ago for their radio interview so you had time to really explore the building and get familiar with where everything was.
You worked on whatever tasks your manager gave you and did everything an intern should do and by the time you were done, you were sure you had made up for your shaky start in the morning.
You yawned while stretching your arms as you walked down the deserted hallway, now having time to really think about music.
You ended up on an empty desk and continued working on some lyrics you had started writing a couple of days back.
A few hours later you absentmindedly checked the time and balked when you saw that it was almost 1 am.
"Damn... I lost track of time again" you thought with a shake of your head and a sigh.
The good thing was that the building and its facilities were open 24/7 as long as you had the electronic pass, which you were issued earlier in the afternoon.
You glanced around and noticed that everyone was gone -probably had been for some time now- so you got up and giddily walked towards the production room.
"Since I'm here this late I might as well mess around with the equipment for a bit" you think excitedly, a small smile forming on your face when you try to picture how this could eventually be your future.
Your eyes shone with excitement and you grinned like a maniac when you glanced at all the latest producing equipment inside the room.
Tentatively you walked inside, making sure you switched the lights on and your fingers brushed lightly over a synthesizer that was kept in its prime condition.
From the corner of your eyes you saw a pair of headphones in front of a huge desktop and you picked it up with curiosity, studying it carefully.
You tossed it aside seconds later and took a seat in a very inviting looking seat.
You languidly spun around while examining the room and you raised your brows in confusion at the personal touches you noticed all around.
It was actually quite familiar and your eyes widened in realization when you finally realized just who's room this was.
You must have been more tired than you thought if you managed to mistake the shared production room for the member's private ones...and not just any member mind you, but Min Yoongi's room...
"Having fun?" The said man asked dryly. He was staring at you with one brow raised while he leaned lazily against the doorway of his room.
You jumped in surprise while spinning around on the chair you were comfily sitting on. Unfortunately you had turned around too quickly, making the chair topple over. You quickly get up, trying to pretend like nothing happened but you couldn't help the flush of your cheeks in embarrassment at being caught red handed.
You were never really a superstitious person but after that night you had avidly believed in the term 'Speak of the devil and he shall appear'
You paused though when you heard the sound of muffled laughter and you turned to Yoongi with wide eyes.
He covered the lower half of his face with one hand and his head was turned away but you caught the slight tilt of his lips that betrayed his amusement.
"So he isn't really an ice king after all..." you thought contemplatively and your eyes softened.
You watched quietly as Yoongi cleared his throat noiselessly before he turned around, bringing up a smug smile that screamed fake.
And just like that the spell had been broken. You narrowed your eyes at his unnecessarily superior action.
Briefly you wondered why he was putting up this front and acting like an asshole when you had seen firsthand throughout the day just how much he cared about his members and the people around him.
It was in the little and subtle things he did and yet despite that he still seemed to put a distance to himself and others.
There were moments where you could feel the tension in the air as well when all 7 were together. The subtle looks of worry and sadness directed at Yoongi was one they gave him when they didn't think he noticed.
But you did.
You noticed.
But what could you do when you couldn't even understand why.
What exactly had made him become this way?
Tonight was not the night for such deep thoughts however so you turn to the stoic man with your arms crossed -whether it was an unconscious action you did to shield yourself from his inquisitive gaze or if you were just peeved, you couldn't say.
"What are you doing here Yoongi? It's late..." you murmured, glancing at the clock on the wall of the room with worry -you didn't want to push your boundaries as the newbie.
He shrugged dismissively and stepped inside. "I could be asking you the same thing but at least I can say that I'm here every night to work on our songs."He answered with a jibe and you felt your anger grow.
You were still a little bit bitter about this morning too and his taunt at you wasn't helping his case but you forced yourself to drop your annoyance because you had a feeling there was more to him than his superior persona that he was trying so hard to keep up.
Curiosity over this enigma of a man won over and you decided to start over so you deftly got up from your seat.
You call out to him without looking away and held onto his gaze unwaveringly when he turned to you, taking note of the slightly frustrated tilt of his lips downwards when he realized that what he said hadn't fazed you at all.
You tried to convey what you felt in your eyes and your lips parted "Look. About earlier... I'm so-"
But before you could finish, he shushed you and then urged you to sit back down.
You acquisied without any fuss -more so because he actually looked troubled than anything else and you watched him with hesitance, intrigued at what he was going to do next.
He seemed to be having a bit of an inner debate and you couldn't help the slight tilt of your lips upwards in amusement at how cute he looked when he then scrunched his nose in confusion.
Eventually you heard him sigh before warily coming closer to you.
"...let me explain...I was really in a rush this morning and I wasn't thinking. It's not an excuse but let's leave it at that alright?" He muttered as if it pained him to do so and you blinked owlishly in shock, not expecting him to admit his fault so easily.
Mirth bubbled deep within you and you bursted out into laughter, making his face flush warmly as he shot you a scathing look.
"You're really interesting you know that?" You said warmly, unfazed by his scalding glare -you were good at brushing things like that away anyways.
He tensed at your words and slowly but surely his glare dropped, replaced by another look of skepticism.
"...you're strange" he muttered back with a slight pout and you chuckled happily while shrugging his words off.
You shot him a cheeky look, feeling more confident now that you knew he wasn't going to chew your ears off with his insults. "I graciously accept your apology, Min Yoongi" you suddenly announced in a teasing manner and he sputtered in indignation.
"Wha?- I didn't apologize you little-"
"Don't worry I'll excuse your shitty personality too...we can work on that later" You beamed, effectively cutting him off as you waved off his comment lightheartedly.
"Wait...I'm not even-"
You clapped your hands and interrupted him again. "Shut up Yoongi and let's go. We can finish this conversation tomorrow" you said with a yawn and walked out of the room, leaving him behind as he shot you an incredulous look.
Tonight you made a promise to yourself
You held back a smile when you heard him shuffle after you only moments later. You may have been too brazen with your words but you'd do what was necessary to goad him out of his shell.
You would bring back the real Min Yoongi
Imperfections and all that came with it
