(A/N: Guysss can you all comment and give me some feedback?)
Inside the conference room, the atmosphere is electric. PDnim stands at the front, an animated expression on his face. "Jungkook!" he beams as I step in. "Congratulations on the success of 3D! We're so proud of you."
"Thanks, PDnim!" I reply, trying to match his enthusiasm.
"Now, about the next project," he continues, rubbing his hands together. "We want to capitalize on this momentum. How do you feel about shooting a music video in Budapest with Kid LAROI and Central CEE?"
Wait, what? Kid LAROI? My excitement spikes. "Really? That sounds amazing! I'm totally in!"
"Great! We'll be flying out next week," he says, glancing at his notes. "This is a high-profile collaboration, so we want you to bring your A-game."
"Of course! I won't let you down," I assure him, but then the thought of Minseo hits me. A week away... how am I going to tell her?
"Also," PDnim adds, "we'll need to finalize the choreography and concept within the next few days, so I expect you to be fully focused."
"Understood!" I nod, adrenaline coursing through me. This is it. New beginnings.
After the meeting, I drive back home, my thoughts racing. What will Minseo think? She's gonna feel abandoned, and I hate that idea.
Pulling into the parking lot, I spot Jimin hyung and Taehyung just as I'm about to head inside.
"Jungkook!" Jimin hyung beams, waving his arms like a kid who just found candy. "I was just about to go knock- lucky we met here! I got some gifts for you to celebrate 3D's success! And and, collab with Kid LAROI? We need some drinks to celebrate."
I hesitate for a moment, knowing Minseo is still inside. Do I want them to meet her? But then I see their excited faces, and I remember that they're my brothers. They know me better than anyone.
"Alright, come on in," I finally say, leading them to my apartment.
As soon as we step inside, Jimin hyung's eyes widen, spotting Minseo on the couch in one of my oversized shirts.
"Oh ho! Look at this! Things got wild last night, didn't they?" Hyung teases, a smirk plastered on his face.
Taehyung chimes in, nudging my arm with a playful grin. "What's this? You're not keeping secrets from us, are you?"
Minseo, trying to maintain her calm demeanor, can't help the blush creeping up her cheeks. She bites her lip, trying to suppress the smile threatening to escape. I can't help but step closer, wrapping an arm around her waist, pulling her in gently. "I mean, what can I say? The shirt looks better on her," I wink at them.
Jimin hyung laughs, leaning closer to Minseo. "Do we need to start calling you 'noona'?"
Minseo rolls her eyes, still blushing, while I chuckle. "Please don't. I can't handle that."
"Yeah, Jungkook can barely handle being called oppa as it is!" Taehyung adds, throwing his hands up in surrender.
I shoot him a glare, but I can't help grinning at Minseo. "So, what do you think about the new music video?" I ask, trying to steer the conversation.
"Oh, right! Jungkook just got news about a new project with Kid LAROI," Jimin hyung says, his excitement contagious.
Minseo's eyes light up for a moment, but I can see a flicker of concern behind her smile. "That's awesome! When do you leave?"
"A week," I reply, trying to keep my tone light. But I can feel the weight of the words as they hang in the air.
"Wow, that's fast! Are you excited?" Minseo asks, her voice soft, but I can tell she's trying to hide her disappointment.
"Yeah! It's gonna be incredible, but..." I trail off, unsure of how to express what I'm feeling.
"But what?" Jimin hyung nudges, clearly catching the tension.
I glance at Minseo, my heart tightening. "But it's gonna be tough being away from you."
Minseo's gaze drops to her hands, her fingers fidgeting. "I get that... it's just... I don't want to hold you back. You're meant for big things."
"Hey, you're not holding me back," I say, stepping closer and gently caressing her cheek, making her look up at me. "You're a part of this. I want you to be a part of my life, even if it's complicated."
Taehyung clears his throat, trying to lighten the mood. "Okay, enough of this mushy stuff! We're here to celebrate! Jungkook, tell us more about the video concept!"
I take a deep breath, grateful for the distraction. "Right! So, it's gonna be this cool mix of urban and nature shots. Kid LAROI wants it to be colorful and vibrant, and I'm thinking we can incorporate some cool dance sequences too."
"Sounds lit!" Jimin hyung exclaims, eyes wide with excitement. "You've gotta show us the choreography once you get it!"
"Definitely!" I say, the energy in the room starting to lift.
Minseo leans into me, her warmth grounding me amidst the chaos. "I know you'll do great, Jungkook. Just remember, I'm your biggest fan," she whispers, and I can't help but smile down at her.
"Thanks, Minseo. You have no idea how much that means to me," I reply, giving her a soft kiss on the forehead.
"See? Look at that! Total couple goals!" Taehyung teases, throwing his hands up in mock celebration.
"Shut up," I laugh, pulling Minseo closer. "You guys are embarrassing."
But deep down, I'm reveling in this moment, feeling like I could take on the world, as long as Minseo is by my side.
