jiheon: your request to change work shifts can't be approved :(
management says we're short of manpower, you'll have to bear with tanya, okay?

you: aw man... okay

jiheon: im sorry :'(

you: it's fine. it's not your fault. I'll be heading to work in a bit, leaving the house now.

Sighing, you brushed your hair, picked up your stuff and left the house.

Today you managed to get a seat on the train. You smiled at the articles that popped out on your feed - "BTS' V Dismisses Rumours". You clicked on the link.

"BTS' V had told reporters that the girl he was out with at the fried chicken restaurant was not his girlfriend. She was simply an old friend he met, and they decided to meet up for a chat. The girl he was with at the bingsu cafe was a different girl - could she be his rumoured girlfriend, then?"

But another article popped out.

"Watch: BTS' V and Girlfriend"

The link led to a video, posted on BTS' Twitter account. Your eyes widened - it was the dare you did when BTS went over to your house. You were grateful for Sheryl's shitty recording skills, because it was a shaky video, and your face couldn't be made out.

You scrolled down to look at the comments.

"Who is she?"

"omg she's so lucky!!!"

"sTAY AWAY FROM TAEHYUNG OPPA"

"uM GIRL WTF"

"ahh they're really cute together! i hope taehyung is happy! 😊"

"girl you better treat my man right"

Some of the comments made you smile. Others... They scared you. What would happen if Taehyung publicly announced your relationship? Will you be able to have any privacy at all?

Tanya was furious - she clearly didn't think this through, well, not enough, anyway. She overlooked the possibility of Taehyung telling the press that she wasn't his girlfriend, denying rumours, because she was so caught up over being able to hang out with Taehyung.

She had a last resort - to tell everyone that she was Taehyung's girlfriend.

She turned on a video of Taehyung talking to someone on her laptop. Then, she recorded herself with her phone, and pretended she was talking to him.

"Taehyung-oppa is such a sweet boyfriend - he always visits me at my workplace, which is a Gucci shop at a mall."

Then she posted the video to Twitter, where she knew it would circulate well. She couldn't have Jimin or Jungkook, now she was settling for Taehyung.

Tanya was already at work when you arrived. You were slightly late today, because you overslept a little.

You felt a little better, because Taehyung said that he would pick you up from work when you were done. At least you had something to look forward to.

"So, how did it go? Did you grovel at his feet for forgiveness?"

You ignored her, and just went about, doing your job.

"Stop ignoring me. Look at me when I talk to you, honey. You aren't even worth my attention in the first place, I don't know why I'm talking to you now."

"Then, don't," you shrugged, folding up the new shirts that had arrived.

Rolling her eyes, she gave up talking to you and walked away.

She tried to bother you a few times during your shift, but she either got told off by Jiheon, or gave up because you were persistent in ignoring her.

Taehyung came five minutes before your shift ended. He was wearing a brown trench coat over a button up shirt and joggers, along with his Puma X BTS Court Stars. As usual, his face was hidden behind a mask - he was wearing a pair of sunglasses and a black cap.

"I'll be done soon," you smiled at him. He made himself comfortable on a couch near the dressing rooms.

Tanya scowled at the scene before her. She knew you had won Taehyung over. Slipping his phone out of her handbag, she stuffed it into yours when you weren't looking.

"Can we order in?" Taehyung asked, hands gripping the steering wheel.

"Of course. Let's go home, then."

You dug through your bag to find your phone, which was ringing. But you pulled out another phone, which clearly didn't belong to you.

"Where did you find it?" Taehyung asked. The car had stopped at a red light, and he was looking at his phone in your hands.

"I don't know, I found it in my bag. What is it doing here, though? Did I pack it by accident? That can't be... You lost your phone when you came over the last time."

Taehyung's eyes narrowed. "Tanya."
