Important note: I know if you've watched Scarlet Heart, you'll have this tendency of portraying Haesoo as IU but pls keep in mind that she is not IU in this book. I just chose this name because I really liked it. I'm gonna say it again: Haesoo in this fanfic is NOT IU!

TAEHYUNG'S POV

Time flew by pretty quickly and before any of us realised, it was already November. More precisely, the 18th of November. That is, the day we were supposed to be flying to America.

Everyone was excited to get in the plane which would take off shortly. The noisy chatter that had begun since we left home didn't come to an end. All the members were talking about how they couldn't believe what was happening while I thought the same about my situation.

2 months had passed since the incident and yet I could not believe I had really travelled 3 years back. It still felt like a dream, or rather a nightmare though it was much better than seeing Jungkook get married and not being able to do anything about it.

To be honest, I had not made any progress so far. Jimin kept urging me to be bolder, going even as far as telling me to flirt with Jungkook which I refused to do. It just seemed so out of character and I was scared that the younger might feel weirded out by my behaviour if I did.

Speaking of the brunette, I saw him taking a seat next to Namjoon hyung. "I wonder who we'll be meeting there!" He exclaimed, a bunny smile plastered to his face. I knew he was referring to the celebrities we would meet but I couldn't help thinking about the one person that would change everything.

I wondered whether I should keep him from meeting her but it would be inevitable as she was our stylist during the event. And even if I did keep her away for that night, she would end up working for our company in the next few months. I sighed, not knowing what I should do.

"Taehyung! You've been unusually quiet lately. Aren't you excited to perform at the AMAs?" Hoseok hyung asked, snapping me out of my thoughts.

Everyone's attention was focused on me as I forced out a smile and replied, "I am, it's just that I've not been getting much sleep lately. Don't worry about me, I'm just tired."

They nodded and resumed their conversation. "Are you worried because he's going to meet her?" I heard a voice asking softly beside me. I jumped a little in my seat. I was so absorbed in my thoughts earlier that I had failed to notice Jimin sitting beside me.

I nodded. It was useless trying to hide anything from Jimin since he was already aware of everything. "It's gonna be alright, don't worry," he assured, giving me a comforting smile. I simply nodded once again and allowed myself to be transported to dreamland.

Some long hours later, Jimin woke me up, saying we had arrived. It was already night time and after getting our luggage, we headed to the hotel we would be staying at. I entered my hotel room but didn't feel like sleeping since I had just done so for several hours. Instead, I decided to take a stroll around the hotel.

While walking around, I heard the sound of footsteps running towards me. I turned around and was met with the one boy that manages to make my heart race with the simplest things he does. He smiled and approached me. "Hyung, what are you doing here at this hour?" He asked.

"Just thought of walking around since I'm not sleepy. I slept during the whole flight," I explained and he nodded. "What about you?"

"Same thing," he smiled. "Mind if I join you?" I shook my head and we walked in a comfortable silence for a few minutes before I decided to break it.

"Nervous for tomorrow?" I asked.

"It's the day after tomorrow," he corrected. I looked at him, confused. The award show is on the 19th, isn't it?

Jungkook seemed to have read my mind as he cleared my doubts. "It's still the 17th here," he chuckled.

I was about to speak further when a young woman approached the both of us. I instantly recognised her. Haesoo.

However, in my memory, we didn't meet her until the day of the show. But then again, back then none of us was wandering around like this in the middle of the night. We had all been exhausted after spending the whole flight discussing about our short trip.

"Is there anything we can help you with?" Jungkook asked politely, breaking my train of thoughts as I focused back on the individual in front of me.

"No," she shook her head, smiling warmly at the both of us. "I just saw you both and thought it would be appropriate to introduce myself already since I'll be working as your stylist at the AMAs," she explained.

"I'm Park Haesoo and it's an honour working for you all," she said before bowing. We bowed back and introduced ourselves as well, though she probably already knew us.

"Well, I'll be heading to sleep now. It was a pleasure meeting you," she said.

"It was a pleasure for us too," I said, watching her walk away.

"She seems like a nice person," Jungkook said. I couldn't help feeling slightly jealous and apprehensive at the statement but I nodded nevertheless. She truly was a nice person.

That night, Jungkook and I walked to the hotel's garden as we talked about everything and nothing. He told me about a song he had started writing for our next album but he wasn't sure whether it would be good enough to fit in. I smiled at that.

He was talking about Magic Shop and that song would for sure make its way into the album as well as become one of fans' favourites, but he didn't need to know that yet. So I just comforted him, saying I'm sure it's going to be great since he's working so hard on it.

However, for the rest of the night, my mind remained preoccupied by one thing. I had unconsciously changed something. Sure enough, it wasn't anything huge but what if I made that mistake again and something big happened? I should remain careful.

I made a mental note to discuss it with Jimin the next day.

The following morning, Jimin and I sat in the hotel's restaurant, our breakfast in front of us. Jimin yawned for the nth time, complaining it was still way too early and that he had not even recovered from jetlag yet.

I couldn't exactly blame him though. After Jungkook and I spent the whole night talking and joking around in the garden, I went to wake up Jimin immediately to tell him about my worries. The boy was still deeply asleep when I pounded on the door of his hotel room for him to get up at 06 30. It was right after I had watched the sunrise with Jungkook and dropped him at his own room.

"So, what is it that you wanted to talk about?" Jimin asked while rubbing his eyes. It had taken me almost an hour to convince him to get up and come with me.

"I'm starting to change things without meaning to. Jungkook and I encountered Haesoo noona last night when we were not supposed to until the day of the show!" I explained.

"It's really no big deal, you know," he stated. He was right. These were only simple things but I was scared it might turn disastrous in the future.

"But what if I happen to change more things unintentionally in the future? What if it all leads to something big?" I asked, the apprehension and anxiety clear in my voice.

"You won't," Jimin assured. "You just need to be careful and besides, they just met 2 days earlier. What difference does it make?"

I nodded, waiting for him to go on.

"They would have met anyway, so it's really nothing and besides, you were with them. So I was thinking you should stick around Jungkook every time we'll be around her. This way they'll have less time interacting alone and they won't be as close. It might even delay all discussions about their engagement or whatsoever," he suggested.

I stared at him in awe. At first I was thinking whether it's really a good idea or not but then I thought that it was indeed a fool proof plan. It will buy me time and I'll get to spend more time with Jungkook. What could go wrong?

"Jimin, you're a genius!" I gushed.

"Why are you two here this early?" A voice asked, approaching us. I looked in the direction it was coming from and saw Hoseok hyung.

"And Kim Taehyung? Up and having breakfast at 8? Where did the sun rise today?" He asked jokingly. I shrugged and he went to get a plate, filling it with all sorts of assortment of food from the open banquet before joining us on the table. "So, what have you two been talking about?"

"Nothing, just the upcoming performance," I lied.

"Oh right! We have rehearsals later on today. We might meet some american celebrities there if we're lucky," he said.

Soon after, we got engaged in a discussion about the AMAs. The other members also joined us one by one as time went by. None of us realised when the clock struck ten and we were asked by our managers to get ready for the rehearsals.

We drove to the venue, perfecting everything and it all went on smoothly. But during the whole process, I couldn't get my mind off the fact that I could potentially create a disaster without meaning to if I kept changing things like that.

It scared me but I tried remaining positive and remembering Jimin's words about it being no big deal. I told myself that I should remain alert all the time and do my best to keep most things the way they had always been.

However, at the time, I had no idea that it was not the last time I would be unintentionally changing the course of events.

That's part 13 of the story and what a coincidence! It's also the 13th today aka BTS ANNIVERSARY!!!🎊💜

I'm so glad that I'm alive in the same era as those 7 angels. They make me so happy and inspired and motivated me during the moment when I felt the most depressed in my life.

They say that BTS come into your life at the moment you need them the most, and that's true. When I came across them, I was extremely self-conscious and had low self-esteem. I also felt really insignificant at that time and felt this need to copy what other people did to be appreciated.

But they taught me so much. That I matter and I should love myself. Their songs always bring so much comfort to me, especially Spring Day (which I used to listen to a lot when I first became ARMY) It feels like a warm hug on a cold rainy day.

And I also feel like they made me become a better version of myself since I knew them during my early teens and basically grew up with their songs and videos.

Happy 7th anniversary to Bangtan and I hope that they'll always be happy and healthy. I'll be by your side till the end of times. Once an ARMY, forever an ARMY! Borahaeeee~~💜💜💜

Ps- I couldn't proofread the chapter since the last few days have been really hectic for me, so feel free to point out any mistakes or whatsoever. And pls vote, comment and share hehe
