Suga's POV:

"Hey uh, Suga. Can I tell you something real quick?" "Sure Claire." She grabs my hand and has us sit down. "Well, you don't know about this, but I had told my parents a long time ago how I was here and that I was working. Trust me, they questioned me so hard about it and I got a rant from them about it. Especially about the fact that I went to South Korea without telling them." "Well that's understandable." "Manager helped me out though and he explained things to them of how this was just going to be a summer job. And once again my dad went on a rant. Because before I was majoring in marketing, and then I switched. And now I'm doing marketing basically." She lets out another deep breath, "but there's one thing that they don't know." "What is it?" "They don't know about you." She looks up at me and it takes a couple of seconds for it to click. "You want me to talk to your parents?" "Yeah, I do." "Just curious... Did you have Mark talk to your parents?" "No, for some reason I didn't and I don't know why..." Huh... Weird.. "But anyway... My parents don't need to know about Mark, I want them to know about you. Since I plan to stay with you after I leave." I smile at her, gently hold her chin, and kiss her. "I'll love to talk to your parents."

"Hi mom," Claire smiles at the laptop screen and waves. She wants me to be out view until she tells them. "Hi Claire, your dad is about to come in. Why did you want to Skype today?" "I just want to talk to you two today, that's all." "Well we do love video chatting with you. Oh here's your dad." ""Hi Claire." "Hi dad." "How have you been?" "Busy. Our schedules are really hectic. And I'm part of them now." "Why are you part of them?" "BTS is doing a collab project with another band who's with another company. The song is about how their all wanting to get the attention of a girl, it's a cute love song. And since I'm close with all of the guys, they wanted me to be part of it. As in the girl they're singing about." "Really," her mom sounds really interested. "Now I hope they didn't force you into this," her dad says sternly. Damn. "Trust me dad they didn't." "How do you know the other band?" "BTS is friend's with them, so I was bound to meet them." Leaving out the part that someone from JYP was trying to steal her and that she dated Mark at a point. Better to just leave that part out. 

"Well we're glad to hear that you're doing well Claire." "I am doing well.. And there's something else that I want to tell you." "What is it?" She takes a deep breath, "I have a boyfriend." "A boyfriend!?" "Oh Claire, is he cute?" That got me to smile. "Mom," she laughs. "Who is he? Is he one of the guys in the group? Because I looked them up and their all handsome." "Yes, he's one of the guys from the group." "Can we see him?" "Actually, he's here. I had him wait off to the side as a surprise." "Let us see him!" She motions for me to come over and I sit next to her. I smile at them and wave, "hi." "Oh Claire, he is cute," and that makes me laugh. "Thank you." "What's your name boy?" "Min Yoon Gi sir. My stage name is Suga. Claire calls me both. So you can choose." "I'll stick with boy for now." "Yes sir." I wonder how strict her dad is. Or maybe it's because, well they think, I'm her first boyfriend. "So how old are you Suga?" "A year younger than Claire." "Well that works out. How did you two meet? Seeing how Claire didn't give us the full story of how she got her job in the first place."

"We met at the airport," we say in unison and smile at each other. "The airport?" "Our planes landed around the same time. When I was trying to get a taxi to get to my hotel, there was a big group of girls following him. And I somehow ended up right in front of him, the girls pushed him down on top of me, and that's how we met." "You landed on top of her?" "I did, I tried my best to stay up but there was to much pushing. My security guards circled us so that we could be safe." "And there was too many girls for security to break and let me out, so I ended up walking with him." "And I founded out that we were staying at the same hotel. So instead of letting her getting lost in another country, I offered her a ride to the hotel." "Which I took." "And that's how we met." "You two met by luck then." "We really did." "I didn't even expect to see a famous person while I was here. But then I met Suga not even an hour into being here. He's actually been there for me ever since we met," she holds my hand and smiles up at me. "What do you mean?" "Him and the guys have been there for me ever since I met them. They're the reason why I have a job." "Why did they want you to stay and work?"

"As weird as it sounds, five out of seven of us liked her and wanted her to stay longer so that in hopes one of us could be with her." "Wait Claire, five guys liked you at the same time!?" "Yes mom." "How was that!?" "Mom," she whines. "Actually she didn't notice. She was shocked when we all told her." "How did you not notice!?" "We think it's because of her Dyspraxia." "Wait, she told you guys about it?," her dad asks. "Yes sir. She told us everything of how it affects her. We think because it takes her longer to understand certain things, this was probably one thing she didn't know and understand." "Claire?" "I still don't know dad. But lets just go with what Suga said." "Suga, can we talk to you alone?" "Yes sir." "Good luck," she whispers to me and leaves the room. "You are aware of her past, right?" "I am." "Do you respect her and you're not using her?" "I promise that I'll never take advantage of her. All of us do. We care about her too much." "Good.  I bring that up because when she was bullied in school, people took advantage of her. They knew she was an easy target and that she never stood up for herself." Claire never told me that... 

"Sir, I promise that will never happen. I never want to hurt her." "Are you willing to do an long distance relationship?" "I am. I've never met another girl like her, I want her to stay in my life. And if that means a long distance relationship, she's worth it." Her mom smiles at that, "see Ray. Now leave him alone. I can tell that he's never going to hurt Claire." "You trust him?" "If Claire does, then we should as well." I see where Claire gets her personality. She's sweet like her mom, stern like her dad. "Well, I hope you enjoy your last couple of days with her. And I hope we meet you someday." "Trust me, I'll try my hardest to go over there. Don't tell Claire this, but we're planning for a U.S. tour next year. I want it as a surprise." "We promise we won't tell her." "Thank you. It was nice talking to you two." "It was nice talking to you as well Suga." We say our final goodbyes and they hang up. "Claire, they hung up!," I yell out. She comes back into the room, "I'm sorry about my parents. My mom can be embarrassing and my dad can be an ass." I go over to her and hold her close, "it's fine. I'm glad you had me talk to your parents." But I'm still trying to figure out why she had me talk to her parents and not Mark.
