Her Hope [BTS J-Hope]

C H A P T E R T W O

Alrighty, it's the first day of work! What could possibly go wrong ? 

My alarm went off at 6:30. I was never a morning person, but I wasn't planing on getting late either. It specifically stated in the e-mail. I jumped out of bed, excited for the first day and went to Tae's room. I knocked on the door slightly first but there was no answer. I knocked a little louder, still no answer. The knocking got louder and louder and still no answer! That was it. I backed up to the wall and ran. I kicked the door open and yelled on the top my lungs.

"YAH!! TAEHYUNG-AH! GET YOUR BUTT UP, I'M NOT PLANNING ON GETTING LATE TODAY!!" I was jumping on his bed trying so hard. After about what seemed like a couple of seconds, he got startled and jumped. I jumped and sat criss-crossed waiting for some sort of response.

"Ahh... just five more minutes! Please?" He groaned in his sleep. He wasn't a morning person like me. I was fed up with his childishness. So, I decided to act like him for a  quick change. Good thing his back was facing me. I unfolded my legs and kicked him in the butt. Not once but several times, until he fell off his bed. Looked uncomfortable but it was well worth it. 

"Yah! Are you trying to kill me?" He groaned

"HA! Maybe it depends. But are you trying to get me late for the first day and possibly get fired? Hope not, or else there will be more butt-kicking for you!" I snickered and laughed going back to my room. 

I got dressed into white button-up tucked in my brownish-pink skinny jeans, a long gold necklace, black/brown-pink bracelet, and finally a pair of black flats with gold studs on the back. I've been saving this outfit for my job and now I finally get to wear it. I was stuck on deciding whether or not I should leave my hair out or in a bun, but I was getting hungry so I left it out messily, grabbed my glasses and shot downstairs. I saw Tae making breakfast, I punched him on the arm and smiled showing off my outfit.

"What do you think? Looks good right?! I feel so confident, like I could rule the world!" I said joyously.

"Pfft. I've seen better." He spat.

"Um...excuse you, sir! I'll let you know that I am a black belt and I will really kick your ass!! I'm your friend at least give me the benefit of the doubt!!" I stood there, hands on my hips and a death-defying glare at him. He kept setting the table, and placed the pancakes on the plates.

"Correction. You're my best friend and I'm just kidding! You look awesome!! I would take you on a date with that outfit any day! And are you wearing NO makeup?!" He emphasized.

"Ha, you better be kidding! And a date? Whoa there! But I do hope you will take me for a celebration for me getting a job! And finally, technically no. I'm doing the all nat-u-ral look. Just foundation, light lipstick, and eye-liner. My glasses don't need to get streaked with mascara since my eyelashes are already long enough." I think I made an entire lecture out of this.

"Again, I was kidding about the date part, I will take you for a celebration, and nice touch." He said, while motioning me to take a seat for breakfast. He looked really tired.

We sat, ate breakfast, and grabbed our stuff, then head to the car. More his car than mine anyway.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

We arrived with 15 minutes to spare, which is great because Tae can introduce me to his co-workers and give me a run through of the building. I got out and saw a bunch of guys walking towards us while we were getting out the care. They looked like the guys Tae always talked about whenever he came back from work.

"Hey Tae! What's up man? Did you finish the mini project, we need that today." His voice was brisk and tough. He had cute dimples though, I won't lie about that. He was tall and muscular, but no too much buff-ness which looked good on him.

"I've been good. Yeah, I've got it here, it took nights but I got it." Tae had a sense of relief in his voice. 

"Oh yea, by the way this is Mina Kim. She's the girl who I roomie, best friends since college. She got a job here surprisingly!" Tae said.

"That is awesome! Crap, I should properly introduce myself! Hello, I'm Kim Namjoon, just keep it simple though, Namjoon. I work here along with Tae in marketing. What position are you taking up here?"

"Uh, hello. You already know my name, Mina. I'm the assistant for Jung Hoseok." Already I saw the 'good luck girly' face.

"Ooo. Good luck with that, but with the looks of you, you look like you'll be fine. I see you've handled people like him before." He kept talking and right behind him I saw his group walking behind. They were a group of five guys, in all honesty, they don't look bad at all. They were all cheerful, laughing and talking with each other.

"Oh, here let me introduce you to the rest of my friends! Come on!" Tae cheered and grabbed my wrist. He brought me to his supposed 'gang' as he calls them back at home. They all looked so nice, happy, and definitely good looking.

"So, here we have the oldest, Kim Seokjin, but just call him Jin. Next, we have Min Yoongi,  but you can call him Suga. Then we have, here Park Jimin, or just Jimin, we have better nicknames for him though, you'll love to hear them, but later and here~"

"Uh, sorry to cut the introductions short guys, but we have four minutes to get to work and I am not planning on getting late. You saw the e-mail Tae. So sorry guys, you all are so sweet. I'm solely saying this because that's how Tae describes you guys in his weekly office stories. I do hope to do a proper introduction later, perhaps lunch break, but now is not the time and ~"

"Okay okay! Let's get going then, I still have to take you to your office, it's a long way!" Tae patted my back and showed me the way. I smiled and began walking with him.

"Yah, Tae! Are you sure you're not her boyfriend!" I looked back to see, who I think is the younger one,  snickering and laughing at his remarks. I gave him a glare and noticed Tae was also giving him the same glare. I think I'm going to have to be cautious with this guy.
