Meetings with a lie

''Jungkook! You have to be ready in ten'' His manager shouted.

Jungkook only nodded and tried to escape the hands of his make-up artists. His attempts were all in vain as they held him back, their hands pushing against his chest, pulling at his hair and gliding over his jaw. He could see other idols glancing shyly at him, having stayed behind to watch him perform.

He finally managed to escape and walked straight to the stage, only nodding when a boy with soft brown hair and a conceited smile tried to approach him. The funny thing is that they don't come to him because they want to, but because there managers force them. Jungkook's own manager would never allow any collaboration so they tried to do it by befriending Jungkook himself, though his manager didn't allow that either.

Something that did catch his attention was a boy with white hair, standing at the other side of the stage. His eyes were cold and it seemed like they pierced straight through anyone that met them.

Jungkook hadn't seen him before so he mustn't be that popular among the public or he just debuted but either way, he didn't look like a normal idol would. He looked a little bit too angry and intimidating for him to be some popular teen idol but Jungkook shrugged it off, not having time to think too much about it and started his rehearsal.

After singing and dancing his heart out he walked to the back of the room, placing himself in one of the plastic chairs, away from the others. He still had a good view on the stage but he wasn't thinking of staying long, just wanting to go back to his dressing room and play some games like he always does.

He sighed, his eyes scanning over a couple of people that seemed to be talking about the lights and the camerawork for the next act. He expected to see some girl group but instead saw the male with white hair walking up the stage. The man having earned some of his curiosity because of the way he held himself caused Jungkook to keep sitting where he sat, watching the other's performance.

He was good, Jungkook couldn't deny that. The way he seemed to throw out the words, raw with emotion and entangled with the beat, had the younger on the edge of his seat. Becoming so immersed, he had a little trouble coming back to earth after the performance ended and before he knew it the boy was walking his way.

His eyes landed on Jungkook and they seemed to widen a little but Jungkook quickly stood up before he could do as much as greet him and walked away.

''Did you see him hyung? Oh my god did you?!''

Taehyung bounced up and down like a child who had just swallowed forty sugar sticks in one go as he watched his hyung with wide eyes.

''He's an asshole Tae''

And just like that his shoulders slumped down and he went form forty sugar sticks to -5.

''What do you mean?''

''I mean that he acted as if anyone but his staff had turned into air.''

''Well I'm not trying to place any labels but aren't superstars normally quite conceited?'' Jimin said while shrugging. He didn't really care to be honest. He never did. People were people, even if they had a fan base that could fill up the whole Pacific Ocean.

''You don't get it Jiminnie'' Taehyung sighed. ''He seems really normal and fun when you watch his bombs. I guess Yoongi just overreacts because the whole Jeon Jungkook didn't spare him a glance.''

''Or you're just so biased that you won't accept the truth'' Yoongi said while kicking Taehyung, who was sitting at the other side of the couch. Taehyung yelped out in pain and rubbed his side, just where Yoongi's shoe had hit him. Jimin rolled his eyes before standing up and placing his but in-between his friends, preventing them from killing each other.
