The next day was Friday. It was your last day and a half day of activities at the HYBE building with BTS. You woke up still clothed from the day before. As you stumbled to the bathroom, you noticed the papers on your desk were not as you left them, and on the side of them lay a note.

Sleep well, y/n.
See you in the morning.
-Jimin

Narrator's POV

'I've called you all here to discuss someone you all seem to know quite well...' Sitting behind his large mahogany desk spoke Bang PD to the seven boys who stood before him.

'...Y/n Chae...'

Y/n's POV

After a morning of activities with BTS and the other competition winners, you now had the afternoon to yourself. You were just making plans with Liza for lunch when Jieun called you.

'Y/n, please could you follow me. BTS and Bang Si-Hyuk would like to speak with you.'

Your stomach sank. You followed her, terrified, your mind buzzing with potential things you could be in trouble for.

Did I get caught by paparazzi with Jimin last night?

Did someone notice that I was close with them?

Did someone see me and Yoongi kiss?

Oh no this is bad!

Should I make a run for it?

Wait that's stupid

Just play dumb

I don't know BTS. Who are they?

Wait that's also stupid

Ahhhhh what do I dooooo???

Jieun stopped in front of a big wooden door with a metal sign engraved with, 'Chairman Bang Si-Hyuk'.

She knocked and you heard a muffled voice telling you to come in. It was your last chance to run. You decided against it. Inside was Bang PD at his desk with BTS lined up on both sides of it.

'W-what is h-happening?' You were so nervous that your stomach felt like it was going in circles.

'Hi y/n, please have a seat.' Bang PD gestured to a chair on the other side of his desk.

You looked over at the boys: Jin gave you a reassuring nod, Yoongi was giving you a soft, proud smile, Jimin, Jungkook and Taehyung were wriggling with excitement, and Hoseok and Namjoon were both giving you big grins.

Obviously I'm out of the loop on something...

Bang PD turned his phone to show you what he was looking at. It was a video of you singing from earlier that week.

You remembered thinking it odd when Taehyung slipped his phone in his pocket awkwardly as you came out of the recording booth. You looked over at him, one eyebrow raised, and he smiled a boxy, apologetic smile.

'I was quite touched by your singing, y/n.'

...really...?

'Then I heard about your dancing potential from Jimin.'

Jimin...

'And after reading your entry paragraph for the competition, I think you would bring an interesting perspective to HYBE and our new girl-group that is in the making.'

'What are you trying to say?' You asked frankly.

'As chairman of HYBE and overseer of scouting for the next generation of idols, it would be my honour to offer you a place as a trainee for HYBE's newest girl group.'

You couldn't reply. Your brows were raised in shock, and your mind whirled in an attempt to process this.

'Just as Namjoon was the first member and leader of Bangtan Sonyeondan, you would be the original member and future leader of LE SSERAFIM, our new girl group.'

'Here,' he got up to hand you his business card. 'I know you'll need time to think it through, so just give me a call when you have decided.'

You nodded and accepted the card, your stomach sinking.

You didn't know where you were going as you stepped out of the building. You wandered around the busy streets of Seoul, thinking.

Why did he bring up the paragraph? Was one of the reasons he made his decision because of what I went through? My past? The crash? Because my family died?

Fate is being fickle again... Was me winning the competition another one of fate's ploys? Has this whole week just been for this? Jimin and Yoongi...? Is fate trying to show me I should give up my dream for someone else's dream? To steal the dream of whoever would have taken my place in LE SSERAFIM.

What's going to happen with me and Jimin? Will I give him up if I let this opportunity go? Will I be with him if I do become a trainee?

Can I really be an idol? Me? What about my Iron Man suits that I've been designing for years? What about revolutionising transport so no one else has the same fate as my family?

Should I give up on my dream?
