"Hey, where are you from?" He asks, giving you puppy dog eyes.
You chuckle and keep walking, leaving him behind.
"Where are you going?" He sprints up to you and keeps up with your pace. Aish, such a clingy person he was.
"How old are you? I'm '95 liner. Are you my noona?"
You shake your head.
"Oh, you're not? Does that mean I'm your oppa?" He smiles childishly at you and runs ahead so that he's looking at you while walking backward.
"Your face is so small and pretty... You remind me of a salad. So fresh."
You stop walking, your face turning a hint of pink. "Stop hitting on me." You've been broken by guys before and since then, you've been too scared to fall in love again.
"Have you eaten? I'm not just hitting on you."
"I-"
"Wanna get some coffee? Is coffee okay?"
"I guess..."
He takes your hand and starts skipping to a nearby cafe. Instead of pulling away, you hesitate for a second before following him with a soft laugh. This stranger... He seemed okay. As you guys head inside, he smiles sweetly at you.
"You have such pretty eyes~" He praises you with compliments, and you blush. "Just looking at you makes me happy. Oh right, where are you from?"
"I'm from-"
"You're so pretty! I just want to snatch you away before someone else does!" He doesn't give you a chance to finish your sentence. For some reason, you find that oddly attractive. "What would you like to drink? I'll pay. Don't worry."
"Oh, it's fine. I don't want to burden y-"
"Nah, it's fine! Besides, I want to buy you a drink." He looks at me and smiles.
"Oh... In that case, c-can I have a caramel macchiato?" You ask shyly, playing with your thumbs. He lets out a hearty laugh and turns to the cashier, giving her the order.
After you guys get settled in a seat next to the window, you notice him staring at you fondly.

"W-what are you staring at?" You fidget in your seat and sip your drink uncomfortably.
"Where did you come from? Will you tell me your name?" He questions in that deep voice of his. A soft sigh escapes his lips as he admires your face.
"I'm Jeon (y/n), and I'm from Busan." You answer. "My brother is Jeon Jungkook. He's currently a trainee at BigHit Entertainment..."
"Oh! Really? I am as well!" He giggles and claps his hands together. "I'm Kim Taehyung, by the way. I'm from Daegu. I'll be on the lookout for... Jeon Jungkook?"
You nod. "He's a '97 liner."
"Oh! He's younger than me!" Taehyung sips his drink but then puts it down on the table, fanning his tongue. You look at him as if he had five heads before realizing what happened.
"Are you okay?" You ask, helping him fan his burnt tongue. Laughing, you watch him with amused eyes. He was indeed cute and childish. Maybe that's what made you keep in touch with him.
"(y/n)?" Taehyung puts a hand on your shoulder, gently spinning you around. His eye trail down to the baby blue dress on your figure, the one that hugs your curves perfectly. "Why are you acting differently all of a sudden? Is it because of Hobi hyung?" He asks, stroking your cheek.
"Tae... I think I like Hoseok oppa. I want him to notice me, so that's why I've... changed. Do I look bad?" You ask nervously, twirling a strand of wavy hair between your fingers. You stopped by the salon to make sure it was perfect. Just for Hoseok.
"You look great, I mean, you always do." He frowns and sighs softly, letting his hand fall from your face.
"A-are you mad?" You look into his eyes and see something you usually never see in them- a hint of anger.
"Of course I'm mad! You're changing because of him! Why do you like him anyway? Why can't you just love me?" He fumes, backing you up against the wall. "Why can't you see my love for you? All this time, you're the only one I've looked at. But why are you chasing other people and ignoring me? Hoseok hyung only knows himself... but my heart..." His grabs your hand and guides it up to his beating heart. "It's always been yours." With those words, Taehyung turns around and storms out the room, silent tears falling down his cheeks.
You stand there, confused and feeling bad. How could you be such a coward? For a long time, you've let a guy that doesn't even like you back take your heart away, causing you to ignore the one you loved. The one you loved so much. The one that was always there for you. You let the guilt claw on your insides, sobbing softly. The way he just left you... broke your heart.
You wait backstage for your brother to come, holding a single pink rose. You brought it so that you could give it to someone special in your life. Someone who's always been with you.
"(y/n)!" At hearing his voice, you turn towards him and smile.
Your heart flutters at seeing him, and you run into his open arms. He lifts you up and twirls you around, causing a giggle to escape your lips.
"I missed you." You kiss both of his cheeks and ruffle his hair up.
"I missed you too, jagi." He mumbles into your neck and doesn't look like he's about to let go soon.
"Hyung. My sister." Jungkook's serious voice causes you two to laugh as he puts you down gently.
"You guys were amazing." You pat your brother's head, tip toeing in order to do so.
"I know, I'm sorry I couldn't make it to your photoshoot the other day." Your older brother says in a satoori accent.
"Waaaah, Jungkook, your accent is sexy~" His (boy)friend, Jimin, comes by and gives him a back hug. (JIKOOK)
"Aye, (y/n), that song we sang? It was dedicated to you. I just wanted you to know... that no matter where you're from, I would've loved you anyways." His boxy smile makes your heart melt.
"Aww, thank you, Tae oppa. I really appreciate it. I love you so much." You wrap your arms around him.
"Love you more, babygirl."
