The Eighth Member [Cancelled]

We Need To Talk

The guys stared at you as your ice cream fell to the ground.

It was Seungcheol.

"Y/n, you alright?" Namjoon asked, looking worried.

You were frozen, unable to do anything but stare. Your sort of abusive ex boyfriend just had to waltz into the same ice cream parlor while you were in it, huh?

Please don't turn around please don't turn around please-

"Y/n? What are you doing here?"

Shit.

"Hey... Seungcheol." You said awkwardly, standing up to bow slightly.

You could sense the rest of your group was looking at one another in confusion, of course having no idea about your history (other than Yoongi).

"It's been awhile, huh? Made some new friends I see." He said as he bowed to the rest of them.

"Ah, y/n! You know Seungcheol?" Taehyung asked innocently.

"Quite well, actually. See, we were-"

You cut him off but kicking him. Hard.

"Just childhood friends!" You smiled weakly, "it's no big deal. It's nice to see you again!" You lied, and no one was buying it.

Taehyung got up to talk to Jeonghan and Jisoo, while the rest of the members commerced in conversation. Other than you and Seungcheol, of course.

- to the side -

"Seungcheol, what the fuck do you think you're doing here?" You asked harshly, thinking you had been able to permanently escape.

"I might ask you the same thing." He said back calmly.

"Look," you started. "We need to talk, and here isn't the place to talk, especially around the rest of our members. I as the newest and maknae, and you ask leader."

"So, what do you suggest?"

You thought for a moment. You had only been there a week or so, meaning you didn't know your way around.

"What about..." He broke the silence. "The little alleyway near your building.

"What--" It sounded creepy; an alleyway, at night, alone, with him.

"Look, I'm not trying to seem creepy." He put his hands up in defense. "It's secluded from public view so we won't have to worry about other people watching us, okay?"

That's what I'm worried about you son of a- "okay fine. I'll meet you there, 12 am. No later. Be there."

- Taehyung, Jeonghan, and Jisoo's conversation -

"Wait!" Taehyung exclaimed. "They dated?!" He whisper shouted.

"She! It was kept away from the public eye because it's such a big deal. You know from an idol's point of view that if we date fans we'll be fired!" Jeonghan said.

"All of us (seventeen) know... But that's it, other than you now.

"We all noticed he would be gone for long periods of time. But one day, he slipped up when one of us face timed him... Y/n was in the background, half dressed." Jeonghan and Jisoo looked down ashamed.

"We never knew..." Taehyung's hand formed a fist, but soon released it. "Thanks, you guys."

They both smiled sweetly, "of course, you're our friend after all." Jeonghan said brightly.
