Your POV:

"I have to leave Korea, for three months." His eyes widened. "THREE months?" You nodded as you switched on the tap, avoiding his face. "We just met, but I'm probably going to miss you. A lot." He tried to take it in. "Why?" You started turning the dishes over and ran them under the tap. "Well, my YouTuber friend Tyler, invited me to go on tour with him."

"HIM? Are you sure it's safe, he might get to you! Who knows what he's going to do to you when I'm not around!" You laughed, "Taetae, he's gay." He was unconvinced. "He might be pretending to! You need to know when someone's trying to get to you!"

You turned to him, "Taehyung, are you jealous that I'm hanging with a guy for three months?" "NO! I-I just don't want you to get hurt or anything..." He turned back, clutching his rag. "That's sweet of you, but trust me, I'll be fine."

You turned back to the sink, using your sponge to wipe the plate, the bubbles ran down your arm. Taehyung ripped off a paper towel and wiped your arms for you, before the soapy water reached your rolled back sleeves. You looked at him gratefully. "I'm just worried." He looked at you with a pointed look before reaching over and taking the dish from your hand.

The both of you washed your dishes in silence. As he drove his car out of the parking "Don't you have a tour too?" You asked. "Yeah, we do." He said. "Oh." He dropped you off in front of your house. He rolled down the window, "Text me when you get back home okay?" You took out your phone and waved goodbye.

You took the lift up to your apartment as you unlocked the door. You texted him before you started packing.

~Flashback~

"I'm leaving in a week." "A week?! That's too fast! I wanted to hang with you some more..." Taehyung complained. "I feel bad too, it's just that he's leaving in a week and he asked me to go with him. A few other girls are going to, I'm going to be okay!" "I can't stop you, but make sure you pack the right things! And, don't forget to talk to me! Where are you going anyway?" "United States." "Oh... Our tour is in Asia only..."

~End of Flashback~

You smiled to yourself as you packed your suitcase. A week sped by really fast, you couldn't really catch up with Taehyung because you were so busy planning, he also had to go to practices, which meant you didn't really talk much. But you called him whenever he had the time.

At the end of the week, Taehyung drove you to the airport himself. He walked you to the counter as you turned in your luggage. He walked with you and met up with Tyler, he received a pretty warm welcome and walked with you until you had to cross the security check.

You turned to him. "I, guess this is goodbye for now." He shrugged, misty eyed. He turned away. You sniffled a bit and pulled him in for a hug, he squeezed you back. "I'm going to miss you a lot Y/N." He whispered in your ear. You pulled back to face him, "Me too." You looked away sadly.

"Go. Tyler's waiting." He let you go and patted your arm. It hurt you a lot and took you a lot of motivation to walk away from Taehyung, you turned back just before you were to pass through. He waved at you and gestured for you to go through.

You waved back and walked through, you looked back until the gates closed behind you. You turned back and went to find Tyler.

~The Next Part~

Tae's POV:

He watched you walk away. You turned back one more time to glance at him before the gates closed behind you. He stood there for about a minute before putting his shades back on and rushing back to his car.

He thought about you during practice, it was a little disheartening, knowing that you were probably kilometers away from him now, in the air.

The members seemed to notice it as well, but did not talk about it as much. They practiced until late at night. Taehyung sat down on his bed and looked at his phone, no text. Of course, airplane wifi sucks.

He sighed and fell asleep.

~3 MONTHS LATER WHOOP WHOOP~

Your POV:

3 months passed by like a breeze, it was so fun and exciting. You met lots of people, collaborated with a lot of YouTubers and met a lot of your fans. Day by day you felt your heart ache a little though, it was as if something was tugging at you across the line. You ignored it and kept a bright mindset.

You travelled to many states with Tyler as you interacted with your audience on stage and talked about Tyler's book and played games together. You never forgot to vlog each day and reflect on your highlights and lows.

You never forgot to talk to Taehyung, you would wake up extra early or stay up late just for a chance to talk to him. The members would whine through the phone trying to get a chance to talk to you, so each day apart from Taehyung you would talk to each member.

You laughed with Hoseok on Mondays, Suga complained about the members to you on Tuesday, Jin chewed while listening to you recall memorable events on Wednesday, Rap Monster talked to you and Tyler on Thursdays, Jimin shared funny videos of the members with you on Fridays, Jungkook taped the members secretly while laughing with you on Saturdays, and you talked with Taehyung the whole time on Sundays.

You arrived at the airport at 4 in the afternoon, you were jetlagged very badly and desperately needed a bed to sleep on. Taehyung and the members waited for you outside.

You got home and slept for the rest of the day. You woke up at around 5 in the afternoon. Damn, I slept for like, a whole day. You remembered tomorrow was BTS' ending concert in Seoul, you were going to go to watch their concert. But you talked to the staff to let you in backstage and watch from a live broadcast the set up especially for you.

You braced the chilly January air as you walked to the café, from afar you noticed a pair sitting on the balcony table. Did it work? Hmm. You rushed to get in.

You entered the café and believe it or not, it was busy. Aerith hired more workers since you did not recognize some of the staff. The corkboard was filled with more photos of celebrities but in the middle was yours and Taehyungs. The candles were lit and the bright and warm atmosphere was filled with noises.

The bookcases were filled head to toe with some of your old books and some, which were new, or some from Aerith's personal collection. You walked upstairs as a staff member greeted you.

"May I see Aerith?" She recognized you as she brought you to the back of the café where Aerith was just refilling contents for the self-serve table. "AERITH!" You ran forward, she turned around and smiled and opened her arms.

You embraced her as she tapped you on the back. "Things changed a lot these past 3 months, I can't thank you enough!" Her hair was already white but it was pulled back in a neat bun, her hair was clipped in place with golden butterflies. From afar she glowed a little, which kind of scared you but was mesmerizing too.

"It was great to help!" Aerith looked at your face and put a warm hand over your cheek. "My! You've changed so much! Your hair is longer now!" You clasped her hand. "Thank you. Let's catch up!"

You talked to her late into the night and wasalso introduced to the new staff members. You promised her to come again beforeyou walked home.
