Hidden 8th | BTS

Stage 9

Chapter Ten: Stage 9

You couldn't help but to stare at your reflection in mirror as the stylist gave your hair its finishing touches. The staff had decided to dye your hair a golden brown with pink streaks on them.

Gold to represent falseness

Pink to represent lack of self worth

But strangely enough, even though they dyed your hair with bright colours, your character was supposed to be hidden in the shadows.

Well, it's not like you could question it now considering the fact that you have been sitting there for nearly 5 hours.

Beside you was Suga dying his for the nth time. This time his hair was mint green for their upcoming Run MV.

You remembered their reactions when they found out that you finally got to debut.

They were so happy for you that they squeezed you to death with hugs.

"I knew you could do it! My twin is the best!"

"We're so proud of you."

"THE GROUP IS FINALLY COMPLETE!! WOOHOO"

"Lamb skewers anyone?"

"LET'S GO PARTY! TURN UP!!"

"Now we have the same schedule!"

"Let me inform Seijin-hyung if we're free."

Everyone was so hype that day that they got so drunk with the exception of you and Kookie. You both watched your hyungs somehow found a pole and started dancing around it, breaking furniture left and right, leaping through table to table yelling out that he was a ninja, just out right fell asleep so you had to carry him to the car, admiring himself while looking at this reflection from the utensils and koala hugging you while petting your head with his hands like you were a puppy.

After all the trouble on getting back home, you just knew that you never ever want to see Kookie drunk, god knows what he'll do.

You grinned at yourself as you see the guys mock each other of their acting skills especially Jimin's. Though it was still very cold. You pity the guys as they had long scenes in which they had to run on the autumn field.

Your scene was a short one. While everyone was running in the chaos, you would be in the background at the top of one of the bridges. Your character was to look down at them with a blank face, then when some the boys were partying your back figure could be shown at the edge of the windows. Then at the very end of the video, your character would be walking under the night sky, which was the scene that Kookie would turn his back and look at the camera, a.k.a you.

Though, you still had no idea why they dye your hair. Like, your costume was legit all jet black, head to toe and you had a big black hoodie on so that the shadow would cover your whole face.

Was the staff just experimenting on your hair??

"Alright Y/N get into positions!" you heard the director yell.

Let's just say you had much more free time than you thought. Your scene was over because apparently, you acted perfectly, though you couldn't help but think you could have done better.

It was probably because the director's expectations were low.

Well, guess that means you get more time to complete your assignments. You and Kookie went to the same idol school but you couldn't attend class because the company couldn't afford for anyone but the staff to find out that Kookie had a twin before debut. So you had to summit all your assignments online.

You flinched as you felt something cold touch your cheek.

"Sprite?" you heard Hoseok ask lifting the cold can away from your face while handing you the sandwich in his other hand.

"Thanks" You replied back as you grabbed the sandwich and drink. You made a mental note to exercise more later.

"Need help?" You turned your head and saw Namjoon coming over. He crouched down to see your laptop screen. You had your essay paper on full display with brightness on a medium.

"Oh no, you ain't touching this keyboard. Remember what happen last time?" You reminded him of last month's accident. He had helped you typed down some complicated sentences but before you could save it the laptop had shut down itself and ever since then it refused to light back up.

So all your work that you have saved before was gone, and Namjoon had gotten you a new one.

"It was one time." He groaned.

"Along with a 5 page essay."

You were not going to nor do you have the time to rewrite the whole 10 pages of confusing words for this essay again.

You made sure to push the save button again and again whenever Namjoon just so happens to come close to your laptop.

"I NEED HELP!" You heard Kookie yelled out with his paper in hand. Math papers.

"Yah! At this rate you won't learn anything if we keep helping you." Jin came out to scold him.

"But I'm realllllllyyyy confused." You saw Kookie giving him the puppy dog eyes, or in this case kit bunny eyes.

"What's the problem, Jungkook-ah?" Jimin came to their side with his finish touch up make up.

"Hyyyyyuuuuunnnnggggggg" Kookie whined at Jimin as he clung onto him while fanning the math papers in front of Jimin's face.

"I can help too!" Tae yelled out once he had finished acting out his part.

"The last time you helped Kook, you ended up questioning why x couldn't move on from y." You heard Yoongi said at the corner of the room, laid back on the black couch lazily with his face still facing the phone in his hand.

"Well it's true! X is an independent person that needs no reason to find Y. I mean why should X have to find Y, can't Y be a nice person and stop hiding from X because Y is causing trouble for everyone."

You sigh at Tae as your eyes wander around the room. You stopped when you saw Jin's expression.

Oh boy.

"Hey, what did the pac man say to the polynomial?" Everyone turned to look at him.

"Poly-nom-nom-nomial" And cue the laughing windshield Kim Seokjin. Along with Jimin and Namjoon while everyone else in the room cringed or sigh.

You looked at the screen in front of you. You needed 10 more pages for this frustrating 20 pages essay. 

Holy Shitu

You were so going to miss the deadline.
