Just my luck.

Jungkook quickly set up the tripod at an angle where two of the boys would sit. Facing him were empty chairs which carried the names of each singer to his

He got BTS' row.

No, he got BTS' row on his first day.

Jungkook couldn't believe it. Now currently at the venue, he stood at his assigned spot in disbelief.  He glanced at the three members he would be filming throughout the show, trying to recall the members he knew by heart.

Jungkook made it a personal vow not to fuck things up as his cameraman.

He silently hooks up a cord to his ear, hearing the voice of Jessi connect to the piece. "Okay, is everyone connected?"

They all said "yes" in unison.

Jungkook was beginning to get a little bored. He lightly tapped his phone— freaking out because it was on full brightness. He manically turns it down, swiping up to view his feed.

Over his earphone, he could hear Jessi's cues to start filming. Some celebrities caught the cue and posed for the video, but others stayed in a blank state. But that was the whole point- to get a candid reaction from the audience.

He got several shots of each act— yes including BTS. However, he couldn't seem to get a good shot of the boys. Whenever it got to them he'd panic and pan the camera onto the group next to him. Of course he got a couple shots of the leader, Namjoon or in this case known as RM and the eldest, Jin. They seemed to be goofing off together, loudly singing the tunes performed which seemed to be an immediate reaction to all the drinks they've been served.

"Jungkook, we need more focus on the members of BTS," Said Jessi over the speaker. "Try to get more closeups of each member when I tell you to okay."

"No offense Jessi, but is that really necessary? I've shot them like a bajillion times because of all the awards they've won." Jungkook responded. "Shouldn't we give more spotlight to the other artists I haven't shot yet?"

"Jungkook, you're gonna have to listen to me closely because I think you lost some brain cells there," Jessi pressed. "BTS are international superstars, and it wouldn't make any sense not to give them the spotlight they truly deserve."

Gosh, was she an ARMY.

"Most of the viewership come from around the world, and they are the biggest boyband in South Korea for godsake— trust me, this is what the fans want." Jessi responds sternly. "And I know what the fans want."

"Okay! Okay!" Jungkook responds defensively. "I'll throw in more shots just for you."

He could hear her satisfying "mhm" over the line which caused him to roll his eyes.  It was no doubt Jessi was a fan of BTS, she just rarely admitted it. But when it comes to having their loyalty, she's ready to protect it. Just don't be surprised when the live feedback doesn't show other artists. He thought to himself.

He sighed, adjusting the view from his camera back to the infamous boyband.

The members of BTS had their own personal traits about themselves. Like for instance, how Hoseok was the sunshine of the group and had the brightest personality. Namjoon being the leader and glue of the group, Jimin with his strong charisma and amazing vocals. Hoseok being the funny and kindhearted brother. Jin, also known as a strong visual and almost mother-like figure of the group.

Finally there was Kim Taehyung— also known as the ultimate heartthrob of South Korea. He's known for his deep charms  and caring  personality amongst fans. This information didn't seem to collect in Jungkook's thoughts however. This man absolutely frightened him.

It wasn't that he seemed mean, it was just the intimidation he felt whenever he saw him. It's not so common to see someone with such a strong aura. I mean, maybe it was the photographer in him speaking. He could understand why some people found him attractive.

 He's none other than the most handsome man in South Korea besides that handsome hunk-of-a-junk named Park Seojoon. He was quite mysterious at times, but had a huge loving heart.

He is a bit of a mystery, but he seemed kind.

Knowing how badly needed a good BTS shot was to their company, Jungkook figured his boss would call for a shot focusing around Taehyung— however he didn't want to mess up.

He finally grabbed a good view of Taehyung. Standing a couple feet in front of them, he adjusts his equipment to face the boy. His camera is live. He peeks at his camera, adjusts the focus and zooms in closer.

His breathing slows down at the sight. His hair was a floofy, turquoise blue. He was immensely focused, his slender fingers caressed his chin and his eyes gazed into the distance.

He couldn't help but admire the features he had. His strong jawline that continued to his earlobe. There was light makeup grazed around his face, from the water-like foundation to the rose-tinted, blush on his cheeks. His chin could cut thin slices. His lips were plump, bright pink, and looked as soft as clouds. The quality of Korea's it-boy, all shown through the lens of a camera.

I wonder how those lips would feel on mine?

Jungkook wets his lips. He was unaware of the surroundings around him, and only focused on what beauty stood in front of him.

He suddenly caught the eyes of the boy. He shot him a blank, stern expression— finger resting on his temple. The sudden look caused Jungkook to jump, flipping the camera at an awkward angle.

"2, Jungkook!" Jessi exclaimed repeatedly on his ear. Her voice was booming loud in feedback, it was painful to hear. "What the hell are you doing!?"

"Aie!" Jungkook whisper-screamed, fetching the camera to face the floor. His breathings heavied
And cheeks began to burn bright red at the thought of what he just did.

"Camera 1, Camera 1! Yoongi For the love of god, turn to TWICE immediately!!" He hears frantically over the mic.

The live feedback was horrendous. He looked over at the screen and saw Yoongi frigidly cut to Twice's cam. Thank god they just stood there looking good as always, and NOT questioning his horrible camerawork.

He taps onto his Bluetooth, "Jessi, I'm so sorry! I got a little bit distracted, but I promise you it won't happen again!"

"This is completely unacceptable Jungkook, one more mistake like this and you will suffer the consequence!" Yelled Jessi again, and geez was her mic ever so loud? He's never felt frustration through his ears before.

"Central cam is on!" Yells Solar, saving the catastrophe in four words. He could hear the group silently whisper their praise over their mics, while trying to adjust his camera. As he did so, his eyes shyly glance over.

He was now looking in the direction of the band mates. Jin and Jimin were cackling amongst each other (god knows why, but If it were because of Jungkook's mistake he'd genuinely cut limbs off himself), and patting Taehyung's shoulder playfully. Taehyung carried that same expression, looking over on their side before unexpectedly meeting eye contact again with Jungkook (who was currently getting a jab of Jessi's parade of curse words via Bluetooth) .

The action made Jungkook jump slightly, but not as much as it did the last time. He was able to have a steady grip of the camera. This time, he held on tightly because he could feel himself starting to get lost by his visuals. He continued his blank expression,  this time sending a signal that would cause several different waves of electricity to go off.

With one little eyelid, he winked.

Jungkook shook the camera again.

"Camera 2, WHAT THE FUCK!!"
