By Their Side (BTS)(Hobi)

Chapter 7

Kim Tae's POV

It has been one week since the press conference. I put my hands on my knees as I try and catch my breath. "Don't be so weak, Kim Tae. We haven't started the next dance." Hoseok says. I raise my head and glare at him. "We haven't... had a br.... break in and hour." I say in between breaths. "Ya, the others are fine." He says. I look around and see the others in about the same state as me. "Sure they are..." I say quietly. Hoseok sighs. "Take 15 minutes." He says. Quiet cheers were heard from the other members. Hoseok walks closer to me and helps me stand up straight while grabbing my shoulders. He lifts up my arms and places them on top of my head. "It will help you breathe easier." He says quietly. Badump. Badump. My heart~ "Ya! This doesn't help. It's making my heart beat faster and harder to breathe!" I say quickly as I put my arms down. "It shouldn't..." He says quietly. I quickly walk away to avoid the situation.

After grabbing a bottle of water, I plop down on the couch next Jin. "Hyung~" I whine as I put my feet on his lap. He pushes them off and gives me the dirtiest mom look I've ever seen. I shiver in fear and quickly hide behind Jungkook. "I'm sorry." I say quietly grabbing on to his shoulders. Jin looks back straight and drinks some water. Alright. Never mess with Jin when he is tired. I sigh and lay down on the floor, looking up at the ceiling. This past week has been interesting. I take out my phone a check the group's twitter, looking at the post of a selca of me. It was filled with thousands of comments from the fans. 'Who is this?' 'Why are they adding a new member?' 'He's kind of cute, though. Don't you think?' 'Kay? Edgy.' These people. I let the phone drop to my side and continue looking up. I'm so tired~

"Boo!" Hoseok says as he pops into my vision above me. I yell a little and grab my chest. "That scared me..." I say under my breath. He lays down next to me and I turn my head to stare him down. "Sorry about this hard practice." He finally says. He looked sincere. Maybe he's not so bad after all. "I forgive you-" "But you need to get better stamina. How can you be out of energy after an hour of dancing?!" He says. He sits up and looks at me. Never mind. "My bad. I was doing my best to dance, captain." I say sitting up as well. "Well, work on your stamina somehow." He says. I glare at him. "I'm trying my best. It's only been a week and I've learned all of the dances you guys are going to do for my debut stage next month!" I say starting to get angry. "Then that gives you a month to get your stamina up! You do have to sing as well, if you didn't know." He says furrowing his eyebrows. "Of course I know! Do you think I'm stupid?!" "Yes! Idiot." He says. I won't hold back anymore. "You know what-" Before I could finish, Taehyung moved in between us.

He grabbed our shoulders and hugged us. I was still glaring at Hoseok as he reciprocated the emotion. "Now, now. Let's all be friends! We're a group now. We shouldn't fight." He says. I look at Taehyung and he gives me his signature rectangular smile. My expression always softens seeing that. I sigh and look down. "Sorry, Hoseok." I say. No way am I going to call him hyung ever again, though. "Yeah, yeah." He says rubbing the back of his head. I look at Taehyung and he winks at me. Damn. "Let's start practice again." Namjoon says standing up. We all listen and begin dancing again.

After finishing, I go to the bathroom to change. When I come out, the others weren't out there anymore. I walk over to my phone and look at the message Jimin sent me. 'You were taking too long so we already went back to the school.' There was no way. I grab my bag and walk down to the lobby to find the rest of the members waiting for me. "Ah~ it didn't work. He didn't run." Yoongi says. "Sorry." I say quickly. The guys get up and we start walking outside. We get in the van and Ho Beom starts to drive.

As we reach a stop light, I look outside to see a pojangmacha (food tent). My mouth begins to water looking at the steam rising from the food being served. I continue to look outside as we leave. "Ddeokbokki..." I say under my my breath. "Ho Beom, lets eat at a food tent today instead." I hear Hoseok say. I look at him gleefully. My savoir! "That's right. You haven't had any Korean street food yet." Namjoon says. "Pleaseeeeee~" I plead. Ho Beom looks in the rear view mirror then slows down to park. "Thank you!" I say while standing up to bow. I hit my head on the roof and hear the others laugh. As I put my handle on the door, Jimin stops me. I look over and he hands me a mask with a baseball cap. Right. I'm an idol now. I put both items on and we head out.
