36. My Universe

Flashing purple lights, euphoria, love and excitement. Those are probably the four things I would use to describe a BTS concert as a fan. Behind the curtains however, it's a whole other deal.

When the third "stage" is finished, the podium is lowered through the floor and I watch in horror how staff rush to Jungkook and Jimin with small tubes of oxygen. All the members are dripping in sweat and can barely move from one point to the other.

I try to hold myself back, not to be bothered and stay put. He's struggling, so obviously and I'm supposed to do what? sit back and observe?

I slowly stand up and scan the chaos unfolding around me. "No, no... I'm fine! give it to Jungkook!" Jimin shouts and gestures towards the youngest, still laying on the podium with an icepack on his forehead.

"Jimin!?... are you... oh my god!?" 

He jolts his head up at the sound of my terrified voice and tries to give me a genuine smile.

"Y/N, I'm fine... I just forgot to pace myself."

I shake my head, dart my eyes back to poor Jungkook and then back again to the man I love. "You need oxygen, how are you alright?"

A staff member shove me to the side as she tries to get to Jimin. I stumble backwards in confusion and let out a gasp. "YAH! DON'T PUSH HER!" He snaps at her and get's up on his feet, slowly walking up to me.

With beads of sweat dripping from the ends of his hair, he guides me back to the couch and force me down beside Minah, who's still frozen with eyes as big as golf balls.

"Jagi, I'm going to go get changed okay?" He whispers and caress my cheek. "I'll be right back." 

I nod as he plants a kiss on my forehead and then rushes off between the beams.

Only a few minutes after, Hobi comes towards us with water bottles in his hands. He smiles with his entire face and pulls up a chair to sit with us.

"Jimin-ah and Jungkookie are fine, they just never learn... AH, here!" He leans over and gives the three of us a bottle each. He unscrews his own and I watch his sharp jawline pop out when he tilts his head back to drink. I look at Minah and giggle, seeing that she also can't take her eyes off him.

"Hobi?..." I clear my voice to gain his attention. "...is this normal?" 

He chuckles and relaxes his shoulders. "Y/N, I know it must have been scary, seeing them like that. I't doesn't happen often anymore, I think he just really wanted to prove himself today. For you, but also for ARMY."

"I hope you're not scaring her hyung!" Jimin says while skipping towards us.

I choke when I see him. The sweat is all gone, his hair is dry and the previous outfit is changed to a comfortable merch ensemble. "What?... woah... you guys..." I manage to get out and they all start laughing.

"ONE MINUTE LEFT!"

The producer startles me when he yells and gestures for everyone to get ready. Jimin gives me a quick peck on the cheek while the rest of them smile and waive as they run past us.

Once they reenter the stage Iseul comes to join us. "Soooo, what do you think?" She smiles and wiggle in her seat. "Isn't this amazing!?"

I don't know what to answer so I blurt out the only thing that comes to mind. "He told them... all of them Issie."

She place her hand on my knee and chuckles. "That's good right? now it's out in the open and you guys wont have to sneak around anymore!"

"I guess so..."
