Taehyung 

A week passed. 

My throat and body hurt. Though I didn't like it, I tried not to talk too much. I've been late thrice that week, but pushing that all aside, we were earning money. 

As I scrolled through my phone, I was tempted to watch that video me and Jimin recorded a few months ago. 

"Kring, Kring..." I said, acting as if I were on a phone. I turned to Jimin, still confused. "How should I say it? Ah-" 

"Taehyung, why call me 3'o clock in the morning?" Jimin attempted to copy Yuna's voice, acting as if he was on the other line. "You know what? Just say it personally." 

"I have to practice, I have to practice!" I said, laughing. "Uhm.. Yuna.. bear with me, yes it's very early, but I just wanted to say..." I cracked a smile. "How do I say it? I've never said it to anyone before." 

Jimin slightly slapped my shoulder, laughing. "Aish, just say it in person!" 

"No, no," I said, my mind going crazy. "I wanted to say.. uh.. I love you? A lot? Yuna." 

"Why do you sound so unsure? I'm dropping the call!" Jimin huffed, pretending he dropped the call and laying on his back. "You better say it personally, though." 

"Kring kring!" Jimin faked. I gasped and pretended to answer my phone. 

"Hello?" 

"Taehyungie! I just realised that I love you too! With all my heart!" Jimin raised his voice, which didn't sound like Yuna, but was nonetheless good for a guy! 

"Woah, you sound like you're mocking her, Jiminie!" I warned. "I'm going to tell you to her!" 

"Just kidding!" Jimin turned to the camera and grinned. "It's cause Taehyung wants to hear it from you right away, Yuna! He's desperate of your love!" 

"Shh!" I laughed. Jimin grabbed my phone and focused the camera on me, I winked. "Yuna! You know.." I assumed he zoomed the video. "The only man for you." 

I pointed at the camera, "Is Kim Taehyung." 

"Yah, breezy!" Jimin chuckled. "You better send this to her!" and with that, he turned off the video.

I called her everyday. She wouldn't answer. 

And so my mind wandered off to what things used to be. 

I held up my phone, "Say," I started, staring at Yuna and listening to the background music. "Why don't you come and dance with me, baby?" I drank the clear liquid, I was so into doing this act. 

Her brows furrowed, and she pursed her lips, something she did whenever she got flustered. "Taehyung, is that alcohol?" she panicked. 

"I won't tell." I said, grinning from ear to ear. 

She rolled her eyes, realising my act. "What drugs are you on?" 

I laughed for a short while, before laying my head on the headrest. "Aish, jagi, you're ruining my bad boy act." I pouted. "I was really into it, until you interrupted me. I remembered this drama and decided to act out the bad guy." 

She scoffed and laughed softly, moving the camera higher. "Well then, carry on with your act." 

"I've lost character and don't want to do it anymore." I frowned. "Tell me, jagiya, how can I focus when a sexy girl is laughing at me?" 

She gasped, "Taehyung!" 

"Just kidding. You do know all of that is just a joke, right?" I persuaded, laughing softly on how flustered she was, as she couldn't meet my eyes. 

She huffed, "Yeah, you're a fluffy teddy bear." 

I smirked, "Exactly why I need a new image." 

"Have you seen the photo I sent you when I was in Hongkong?" I said excitedly. "My uncle took me there last year." she shook her head and stayed quiet for a while, and I assumed she was checking the photo out. 

She cracked a smile, "Woah, the city is amazing!" 

I covered my ear, "Yuna, your voice is so loud!" 

She smiled cheekily but continued anyways, "Seoul isn't the only city I'm wanting to visit, then! Aish Taehyung, you're so lucky." 

"Lucky to be loved by you." I kissed the air, "I hope I can take you with me next time." 

She was about to reply, when a sound was heard from her phone. "Jimin sent me something." 

My heart pounded, and I laughed, "No, no, Yuna! Don't check it out." 

Her brows furrowed, "I'm going to." 

Well, I guess I should've done it in the first place. I assumed she was watching the video now, as even from screen, I could tell she was blushing. 

"Taehyung, what the actual hell." she placed a hand over her mouth. "Where is this?"

"Me and Jiminie were hanging out, nothing happened I swear!" I said quickly, a bit embarrassed. "I thought he wasn't going to send that to you!" 

Her eyes widened, and she stayed quiet. "Yes." 

"Wah, jagi, don't think of it that way." I pleaded. "I was just messing with Jiminie, cause it was funny. Also, you enjoyed it, didn't you?" 

She gulped. "I did not." 

I smirked, "What did you expect?" 

"God Taehyung, stop it." she hid her face with her hand. She looked so adorable, especially with her pajamas and her wet hair. "Or else I'm dropping this call." 

She was weird and loud, but I only got to realise that when things were in hand. When things were okay.. 

"Yuna, did you watch the video I sent you last night?" I asked her. The others tilted their head in curiosity, while her mouth went agape, a smile forming on her lips. 

"It was adorable!" she squealed. "Watching cute animal videos before going to sleep is the best." 

We then started chattering endlessly about cute animals, to the point that Seokjin and Hoseok were laughing. 

"Wah, you two are loud and talkative!" Seokjin exclaimed, covering his ear as we started laughing over a video I was showing her. 

"There's a puddle!" Suyung gasped, pointing at a nearby puddle. 

"What are you, 5?" Yoongi scoffed. 

"I'm 16!" she giggled, pulling me along with her and jumped in the puddle. "You guys should jump in the puddle too!" I started jumping with her, which made her laugh louder. 

"I'm coming, Yuna!" Jimin exclaimed, running over and jumping in the puddle. 

If only things lasted. 

I wasn't usually good at guessing things, but as I recalled our memories, a gut feeling tingled. I stood up and put on my jacket. 

I was going to see her.
