The practice room was unusually quiet as BTS gathered for their rehearsal. Yoongi could feel the tension thick in the air, unable to shake off the unease from the previous night.

As they began their routines, Yoongi's frustration grew. He found it increasingly difficult to concentrate, especially seeing Jungkook and Maya interact as if nothing had happened.

Namjoon noticed Yoongi's distraction and decided to address it. "Yoongi, something seems off today. Is everything okay?"

Yoongi hesitated, exchanging a glance with Maya before speaking up. "We need to talk."

The room fell silent as all eyes turned to Yoongi, sensing the seriousness in his voice.

"We... Maya and I..." Yoongi started, his voice faltering. "We're together."

His confession hung in the air like a bombshell. Shock and disbelief registered on the faces of his bandmates.

Taehyung was the first to react, his voice filled with incredulity. "Wait, what? You and Maya?"

Jimin's tone was accusatory. "Yoongi, you know the rules. We're not supposed to be in relationships."

Yoongi's frustration flared up. "I don't care about the rules anymore! We've been hiding this for too long."

Namjoon stepped forward, his expression stern. "Yoongi, you're not thinking about the bigger picture here. We have responsibilities to BTS, to our fans-"

Yoongi cut him off, his voice rising with anger. "And what about our own happiness, Joon? Are we just robots following orders?"

Namjoon's jaw tightened, his leadership stance unwavering. "This isn't just about happiness, Yoongi. It's about the future of BTS."

Hobi, sensing the tension escalating, stepped in between them, his voice calm but firm. "Guys, let's take a step back. Emotions are running high."

Namjoon turned to Hobi, frustration evident in his voice. "Hobi, you know this could jeopardize everything we've worked for. We can't afford to make mistakes."

Hobi nodded, acknowledging Namjoon's concerns. "I understand, but we also can't ignore Yoongi's feelings. We're all human, Joon."

Yoongi's shoulders tensed, his gaze unwavering. "Exactly, Hobi. We're human beings with emotions, not machines."

Jimin spoke up, his voice tinged with worry. "What if management finds out? They won't take this lightly."

Yoongi shook his head, frustration and defiance mixing in his voice. "I'm tired of hiding. We shouldn't have to hide who we love."

Jungkook, who had been silent, finally spoke up. "But what if it affects our careers? What if it causes problems within the group?"

Silence settled over the room as everyone contemplated Jungkook's words. Each member exchanged looks, their own concerns and fears mingling with the tension in the air.

Taehyung sighed heavily, breaking the silence. "Yoongi, we support you, but this isn't just about us anymore. It's about BTS as a whole."

Yoongi clenched his fists, feeling the weight of their doubts and fears. "I know... I just... I can't keep pretending."

Maya, who had been quietly standing beside Yoongi, spoke up softly. "I understand if you're worried. But we care about BTS too. We don't want to cause any problems."

Namjoon sighed deeply, his gaze hardening. "We've always been a team, through thick and thin. But this... this is different. We have to think about BTS first."
