Chapter 57

"Why didn't you tell us Gyeom?" Jackson shouted breaking the silence that had fallen over us. "I asked her last night, there wasn't much time from last night to today to tell you," my members except Jimin were standing there eyes wide and jaws on the ground. "Just be careful, please I don't need anything happening to either of you," Namjoon said while walking over to me and giving me a tight hug. "I'm happy for you," Namjoon whispered while letting go of me, "I love you all very deeply but I have an interview on stage right now," I said while brushing past them and rushing back on stage. We had done the fun little interviews before, but doing one alone terrified me, especially since the MC was Jinwoo from WINNER and they didn't exactly like us. I walked on stage and bowed to greet Jinwoo and I didn't get a greeting until the cameras started rolling. "Hello Mnet, I am here with (Y/N) after her debut stage, you were on fire out there. Your album titled Chapters consists of six songs, tell me more about the songs and overall theme of the album," he didn't bother to look up from his cue cards or even look at me while I was answering. "I wrote this album wanting to capture what we feel with love, Stay showcases the longing for not wanting someone to leave no matter how bad they are for you, Bam Yang Gang is about an ex-boyfriend who was not a grand feast but rather a traditional Korean treat Bam Yang Gaeng, or sweet chestnut red bean jelly, a metaphor for simple yet authentic love," I explained trying to give a rundown of some of the songs on my album. "Can you sing some of Bam Yang Gang live for your fans," he asked while gesturing at the space behind the camera. I nodded and brought the mic up to my mouth before singing.

As you were leaving, you said to me
"You always want far too much"
No, what I've always wanted was one thing
Just one thing sweet chestnut red bean jelly

Sweet, oh sweet, the sweet
chestnut red bean jelly

"That was amazing, you sounded like a princess, thank you so much for joining us today (Y/N), good luck on your future projects," I turned to wave at the camera before walking off stage and back into my dressing room. I changed from my stage outfit and back into my sweats and crop top before taking off all my makeup. "I've never felt better taking off makeup," I mumbled while taking out the contacts, earning Nari's playful glare. "Don't worry, for Bam Yang Gang since it's a waltz your outfits and makeup are going to be lighter," I smiled and gave the dress back to her before saying goodbye and walking out to the car. "I can't believe you just finished your debut stage," Hobi said while playing with my hair occasionally twirling it around his fingers. "I know, she's growing up so much. I truly do love seeing how much you've improved (N/N)," Namjoon added causing me to smile. "I still have many areas to improve, I need to practice my vocals tonight," I said while letting out a dramatic sigh. "Practice in the garage, I don't want to hear you singing all night," Taehyung said causing me to laugh. "Don't worry, you all have to go to bed early for tomorrow. We have to be up at 4:00 to be at the filming sight by 4:30," Yoongi explained to us causing all of us to let out groans of exhaustion. When we got home and immediately all parted ways, the rap line went to work on the album, the maknaes went to play video games except for Jungkook who was helping Jin cook dinner. I went to my room so I could get dressed in some running clothes for my vocal training tonight. I threw on a random pair of black shorts with a black short-sleeved compression shirt, and I threw my hair up into a ponytail. I grabbed my phone and the speaker we all shared while walking out to the garage only to be stopped by a knock on the door. I opened the door to see Yugyeom and Jeongyeon standing at the door, "(Y/N) has to do some vocal training but you can go with her to keep an eye on her Yugyeom," Jin shouted from the kitchen after seeing who was at the door. "And Jeongyeon, just wait in the living room I'll let Jimin know you're here," she interrupted him abruptly, "No it's okay, I want to hang out with my oppa and unnie," she didn't even let me protest before clinging on to Yugyeom and walking into the garage close behind me. There was an awkward feeling in the air due to Jeongyeon being in here, after the last time I saw her I had a bad run-in with her and now she was all touchy with my boyfriend. "Gyeom can you help me with the music, just play a random song from my album, and don't tell me what song it is," he nodded and grabbed the speaker and my phone from me while I got on the treadmill. I turned up the speed and started singing to Gashina, I started fine but it progressively got harder the further I got into the song. The next song to play was even worse since it had multiple high notes throughout the song, "Take a break, you just sprinted for who knows how long and hit multiple high notes," Yugyeom said while standing in front of the treadmill. I decided to listen to him and stopped the treadmill, "Do you sing live? Or do you just lip-sing?" Jeongyeon asked with a snarky tone. "I sing live, every single performance we sing live," she rolled her eyes at me, she sure knew how to get me mad but I wasn't going to let her notice. "Jeongyeon, why didn't you tell me you were here?" Jimin asked while walking into the garage. "I was just helping (Y/N) with her vocals, she needs the help," she said while glaring at me, "No she doesn't, she trains almost every day and she's been getting a lot better," he replied coming to my defense. "Did you see her debut stage today?" Jungkook asked while walking into the garage and standing next to Jimin. "Can you practice Gashina? I'll help you Hobi taught me the dance," Jungkook said while turning to look at me with a giddy smile on his face. Jimin perked up and turned to look our way, "He taught me too, Jungkook you be the first backup dancer and I'll be the second," Jimin instructed while walking over to get a table set up. "Why are you helping her? Can't Yugyeom help her?" Jeongyeon asked in a frantic tone, but Jimin ignored her and instead waved me over. I got up on the table with help from Jungkook who lifted me onto it, "Can you play the Gashina instrumental please Gyeom," I asked while getting into my starting position. Yugyeom started the song and for the first ten seconds, I didn't sing so I could just focus on my dancing. Jungkook softly grazed my leg which wasn't a part of the dance while Jimin got a lot closer closer to me than the other backup dancers would've. Since only the two of them knew the dance Jungkook also played the part of the third backup dancer. We continued dancing and everything was fine until we got to the pre-course again and I started dancing with the boys again. Jungkook was behind me and was the one to wrap his arms around my waist while Jimin was in front and was the one to get me off the table which earned me a death glare from Jeongyeon. After that part of the song, I was able to continue dancing without getting any more death glares from the overbearing jealous girlfriend. "So, what'd you think?" I asked Yugyeom who was just sitting there with an indescribable expression on his face. "I liked it, I'm just shocked at how easy it is for you to do all of that after sprinting and singing," I shrugged since I didn't think it was easy, the endless nights spent signing, the vocal lessons not only at the company but at school, and all of the dance practices weren't easy. "It's not easy, but she does work hard to make it look easy," Jungkook said while wrapping his arms around my neck from behind. "Jimin I need to talk to you," Jeongyeon said harshly while dragging him out of the garage, "I think you should go get ready for bed (N/N), it's getting late," Jungkook said while leaving gentle kisses on my shoulders and slowly making his way to my neck causing my breath to hitch. "We all should come on Gyeom," I said while escaping Jungkooks grasp and grabbing Yugyeoms hand so we could go up to my room. "I'm sorry about all the Jeongyeon stuff," Yugyeom said while lying down on my bed. I laid down next to him while letting out a sigh, "It's fine, I think she's just trying to get under my skin," he hummed in response while cuddling up to me and shoving his face into the crook of my neck. "I'm serious Jimin she's a whore," Jimin stopped dead in his tracks at the sudden words that had come out of Jeongyeon's mouth. I looked over at him with a shocked expression on my face which he was returning, "Do not, and I mean it, do not ever talk about her like that again, or else we're done. She is my bandmate and my best friend and if you ever so much as think of her in a bad way you and I are history. Now go home, I have things to do tomorrow," he let out a huff before walking into the room slamming the door behind him, and looking over at Yugyeom and me. "You should probably go to bed too we have to be up by 4:00," Jimin said while getting in his bed and turning his back to us. I drifted off into a deep slumber trying my best to ignore the comments Jeongyeon had made earlier.
