THE SEVENTH || (Taekook/Vkook) ||

Chapter 38: Simple man

The day after the party was a calm one.

After celebrating and having fun the night before, the members were quite tired. That's why all of them settled for a normal day of working on their own in their studios at the company.

These days were the happiest for Taehyung. He loved simply working in the studio, dancing in the practice room or taking vocal lessons. He loved having the freedom of making a choice, no schedule, and his members and the rest of the crew all around him. He felt normal on those days, like he was an ordinary man in his 20's going to work, sometimes running into his members when grabbing coffee in the cafeteria of the company, visiting their "offices", etc.

He simply felt, well, simple. He was a simple man living a simple life on those days. He loved how calming it was to dance in the practice room with Jimin and Hobi, he loved that Jungkook was currently cooped up in his infamous Golden closet one level down, he loved that the Namjin couple were both also working on what they loved, without any pressure, in their own studios. It was a simple day at work, for seven simple men.

They spent the start of their day all working in their studios on some individual music, as well as lyrics that popped into their heads for upcoming band albums. But after an hour or two the 95's got bored and texted each other to meet up in the practice room for some fun and dance, and obviously, dance didn't exist if their dear Hobi hyung wasn't there too, therefore the best friends made sure to drag the poor sunshine out of his studio and to the practice hall with them. Which lead up to the present; Taehyung attempting to do the moonwalk while Jimin was next to him showing his Hoseok hyung how his ass was perfect for twerking, whilst the oldest was cracking up watching them.

They were so immersed in their own fun that they didn't hear the door opening, or see their CEO walking in, stopping in his tracks and watching the sight with an "I'm over this" look. He realised soon that he would most likely have to stand there the entire day if he didn't interrupt, because surely these three idiots would not notice him anytime soon. So Bang-pd gave a fake cough, making his presence known to the young ones who froze immediately, looking at their boss in embarrassment and schock.

Silence

"I'm asking no questions, quite frankly I don't even want to know." Bang-pd sighed, "Taehyung, meet me in my office please." The CEO then said and walked out, not wanting the brats to know he was holding in his laughter.

More silence

The three kept looking at the door, wishing and hoping that at any second a genie would appear to quickly grant their wish of erasing everything that just happened.

"Yo," Hoseok started, "that was so fucking embarassing."

"My boss saw me twerking," Jimin said with wide eyes.

"Yeah, and now he wants me to meet him in his office, alone!" Taehyung gulped.

Hoseok and Jimin looked at each other, realising they were actually in the clear. Soon they both grabbed Taehyung, who struggled in their hold, and threw him outside the room.

"Good luck then!" They shouted after locking the door.

Taehyung banged on the door and glared, "you fucking cowards!"

He huffed out an annoyed breath when he realised that they weren't going to open the door and then sighed out in defeat. There wasn't much he could do anyway, he still had to visit Bang-pd in his office one way or another.

He walked to the elevator and made his way up to the top floor where the CEO's office was. He took a deep breath and then knocked on the door, then heard a faint "come in."
