I was walking into my parents' house after my college classes. I was living with my biological dad's best friend that he had on his will. My parents worked for a dangerous worldwide government agency. Sadly, they both got killed in a bomb explosion which left me to move to Korea and live with my dad's best friend and his family. I came at a very young age, so they are honestly my family. They have 1 Son a year older than me and he took over the very overprotective big brother role. I am now 21 and he moved away for work when I was 16 years old. He did come to visit me a lot. We would spend time at home because his work didn't let him go out. As I was laying my heavy book bag down on the table and walking to the kitchen to get a drink, I saw movement from the corner of my eye. I sigh.
"Choi Yeonjun, are you trying to scare me? You know I am a very jumpy person" I yell from the kitchen so everyone will hear.
"Hey, why did you call me by my full name?" He comes out from behind the wall and I still jump. After calming my racing heart, I hug him excited he is here.
"What are you doing here?" I pull away from the hug to see him smiling.
"What... I can't come to see my favorite girl in the world?" He says trying to be as convincing as possible.
"What do you want? Whenever you use that line, you want something?"
"What? Never I just love you so much I missed you" I put my drink on the counter and put my hands on my hips giving him my 'you are so full of shit' look.
"Okay okay, I need to ask you for a favor" he accepts his defeat.
"mhm, I'm listening" I turn to pick up my cup when 4 other boys appear in my line of view and Yeonjun gives me his puppy eyes.
"I need you to fake date Soobin so the media would stop shipping him and this crazy girl." I look at Soobin and I look at myself. I had met the boys briefly, but I was always so busy I never really stuck around to talk.
"No way! I am not girlfriend material, especially for someone in TXT, the biggest 4th gen K-pop group in the world." I shake my head walking up the stairs as they all follow me.
"Please... Por favor... Naaaa... budi... bitte??"
"You cannot use what I have taught you against me sir" I let out frustration.
"(Y/N) please? You know I would ask anyone else if it wasn't because I trust you." I sigh annoyingly loud.
"I am NOT saying I am agreeing buuuut... I am not pretty, I am a dork with glasses. My hair is always a mess. I am not skinny, and I have tons of surgery scars and stretch marks everywhere. I don't thin-" I got cut off when dad walked in and yelled at me. I look over at Yeonjun and stick my tongue out at him.
"Why is my (Y/N) girl that I raised saying all these bad things about herself? I thought we passed this stage when you were 15-16. I helped you become more confident preaching BTS's message." I looked down as the images of me crying and him holding me ran through my head. Let's just say High school is really rough when you don't fit into society.
"You are right, I am sorry. Momentary lapse." I smile up at him as he kisses the top of my head.
"Hey, can you tell (Y/N) that she has to take one for the family and date Soobin for a couple of months" Yeonjun looks at Dad then at me?
"Son she is the princess. She has me wrapped around her itty bitty pinky finger. Sorry, I am not telling her anything you are on your own" He smiles at me and pinches my cheek before he leaves.
"haha, I win" I stick my tongue out at him.
"Stop being petty. Why is the oldest always the one to get picked on?" I actually kind of felt bad when he said that.
"Okay, I'll do it. You guilt-tripped me into it. I will come down with rules and a contract in a few minutes." I sigh then enter my room.
1 hour later
"(Y/N) you said it would only take a few minutes, it has been an hour," Yeonjun yells from the bottom of the stairs.
"Chill fam I am coming it took a little bit" I look over at Soobin and hand him the papers with the rules and the contract that I also had a copy of in my hand.
"Wow, she color-coded it and is very organized" Taehyun takes the paper admiring it.
"yeah, I am extremely OCD. I actually have never had a boyfriend or girlfriend because the things you have to do with them are messy. I also never want kids because the mess they cause gives me paralyzing anxiety." I sit down and go over the contract and rules. He agreed to everything and signed where he had to.
"Thanks for doing this for us. Not just Yeonjun but all of us." Kai smiled politely at me as if I just saved their asses.
2 months later
"(Y/N) come on please just try the dress on"
"Soobin, I told you I am not a skirt or dress type of person. I love my Jeans." I pout frustrated but he just laughs. We have become closer through the last 2 months of this crazy favor. We have become the best of friends which were weird at first, but then I realized how weird he is, and I am also so we hit it off.
"Why am I even wearing this dress?" I walk out of the dressing room as J-Hope from BTS's Older sister helps me zip it up. This dress was made for me by his sister at her clothing store.
"You need it because you are going to be my date at an award show." I rolled my eyes and before I could say anything, I was cut off by him. "I know you don't do those situations and I know you can't even walk in heels but please. Remember the contract." I sighed and looked at myself in the mirror. Maybe this wouldn't be so bad.
"Thanks, Dawon for everything you have done" I hug her and walk to the dressing room to take the dress off. I walk out and find Soobin waiting for me.
"Are you ready to go on our first official date as a fake couple?" He asked me taking my hand in his.
"as ready as I will ever be." I sigh and walk out as we start walking to the park hand in hand. We were acting all lovey-dovey, laughing and taking pictures of each other. The skinship was forced but everything else wasn't. We were having a really good time.
