"Who's that?" J-Hope's voice is clear on the phone.
"It's none of your business." You reply coldly. "Is that why you called? If so, you're just wasting your time."
"Oh yeah... I'm not your boyfriend anymore..." He chuckles, but you can tell that he sounds hurt. "Sorry..." He hangs up immediately. You look at your blown-up Instagram feed. J-Hope is just one of those thirty-something guys leaving likes and comments like "Let's meet up sometime and play" or "Why are you so pretty?", you convince yourself. He's just another guy, nothing so special.
J-Hope doesn't like the fact that boys are falling over his ex that he still has feelings for. She's partying too hard, and he presses down the curses rising in his throat. She's seems more gorgeous than before. He wonders if she thinks about him as well, and as always, presses the like button.
You look at his feed. He's been getting likes from ARMYs and other girls. You feel like some of them are prettier than you. Frowning, you notice that he's hitting clubs and hanging out. You suppress a few hateful words and scroll through his pictures. You have to admit, he looks nicer than before. Nicer than how he looked when you two were together.
"Snap out of it, (y/n)!" You whisper-yell at yourself. "Babo, he left you! Now get over it!" But you can't help clicking the like button.
"Hyung, look at (y/n)'s new post!" Jimin waves his phone right in his face. "She's with... Jackson Wang?"
"What?" J-Hope snatches the phone away from Jimin. "No way..." It looks familiar, and he realizes that the photo was taken where you had your first date with him. He's lost in his memories just like how you were when you went there.
"Hyung..." Jimin's voice rings in his ear as he stands up from the couch.
"Oppa!" Your voice is still vivid in his mind as he daydreams about the dates you guys went on together.
"I should have known." He sits back down with a sigh and gives Jimin his phone back. "But she looks better now. Now that she's not mine. Why is that?"
Jimin shrugs and clicks his tongue. "I still ship you guys. I don't think Jackson and her go together well."
"I know, right!" Hopie laughs with him.
That night, you glance at J-Hope's pictures again and even watch his Vlive video. You hate yourself for doing that, but how can you resist him?
Hoseok stares at his phone before going into musical.ly to check your account again. You've uploaded a new video of you lip syncing to Likey by TWICE. He couldn't help but smile at how cute you looked in the video. You seem to be fine, and J-Hope's smile falters a bit. After a fight with himself, he decides not to click like.
Yawning, you wake up from your slumber to find your phone blown up once more. Huh. Strange. J-Hope didn't like anything. Sighing, you get to the conclusion that he has forgotten about you. To be honest, you only took the picture with Jackson to make Hopie jealous. You feel the urge to call him, but then, you'll feel defeated for the rest of the month.
Hopie wakes up with the usual cluster of noise. There's never a calm day at the Bangtan Household. Well, maybe when you were here. But not anymore. He looks at his phone and realizes that you have left a like on one of his posts. Grinning, he gets out of bed and dials the number that he never forgot.
"(Y/n)!"
"Oppa?" You can't believe that it's him. "Is it really you?"
"Dummy, it is! It's your Hopie here!" His voice sounds very cheerful.
You feel yourself tearing up for some reason. "I missed you..." Realizing what you just said, you facepalm.
"I missed you too, Ladybug." That was his nickname for you. "W-will you take me back in?"
Your lips betray you and curl up into a grin. "Of course, oppa." You idiot!
And the next morning, you wake up on his bed. You frown and repeat the lyrics from New Rules by Dua Lipa- "And If you're under him, you ain't getting over him." It fit in so perfectly with your situation. Then, Hopie stirs next to you.
"Good morning." He grins, still half-asleep. He's so cute with his bed hair and sleepy eyes. Rubbing your eyes, you stand up and look at yourself in the mirror.
There's hickeys on your neck and your hair's a wild mess, which actually isn't that surprising. It's always like that when you wake up. After a nice, relaxing shower, you debate whether you should cover the marks up or not. You decide not to since you know that secretly, he likes to show others that you're his. You get some clothes on and walk back into his room.

"(Y/n)~" He smiles. He's so different in the morning than how he acts at night. "Did you sleep well?"
You nod and tie your wet hair into a ponytail. J-Hope pulls a shirt over his head and stretches.
"I like your outfit~" He gives you a kiss on the forehead.
You flash a small smile and immediately hide it. How long will this last until the next fight? But still, you cherish the memories you made with him and long for more.
