Being forced to wake up at 5AM was like talking to a wall. At least, that was the case for Taehyung.

Even more, the thing that did the forcing was his dance teacher calling non-stop, making Taehyung's phone vibrate violently.

"MMMMMRGH," Taehyung frowned and loudly groaned, sitting up in his bed to search for his device.

His phone was lighting up across the room on his dresser, bearing the face of Jung Hoseok, Taehyung's other favorite staff.

One could say Taehyung has a lot of favorite staff members.

He trudged out of bed, immediately regretting it as his head began to become dizzy, supporting himself against the wooden bed frame.

"Stupid. Brain. I. Hate. You," Taehyung clutched his head in frustration and set off to complete his journey.

The man picked up the phone on the 24th call, 2nd ring.

"No way. You're up," the bubbly voice sounded from the speakers, being too astonished for Taehyung's liking.

"It's not like I can't get up," the younger complained. "It's because you woke me up before the sun even came out."

Taehyung glanced outside the window, faint glows of periwinkle and orange hinting the sun's arrival soon through the skies.

"Get used to it," Hoseok said, sipping his iced coffee.

"Get here in an hour, or I'll make you run laps," then the phone disconnected; therefore, making Taehyung even more irritated.

He called all that time just to tell me that? the man thought, walking out of his room and into the kitchen.

knock knock knock

Taehyung looked up from his concentrated stupor as he ate his oatmeal.

Placing the spoon down, he made his way over to the door, not bothering to check the peep hole.

He always had been a cranky, annoyed morning person.

The man opened to door to his manager.

"Hello, Taehyung," Mr. Bang greeted.

Taehyung grunted his hello.

"I brought your new bodyguard with me...," he stated, walking out of Taehyung's view of the threshold.

The 22 year old looked out of the doorway to the left. There, Mr. Bang was walking towards him with the man.

Mr. Bang was either extremely short or Jungkook was extremely tall. Their size differences freaked Taehyung out.

Is that what I look like next to Bang? Taehyung thought.

However, his attention was directed towards the younger. His once cute and charming aura showcased on his profile completely vanished.

It was as though someone told him that his family was murdered, and he is now on the hunt for him/her.

"Kim Taehyung," the CEO started, moving Jungkook forwards with his hand. "Meet Jeon Jungkook, your new bodyguard."

"H-hi," Taehyung couldn't help but stutter, instantly mentally facepalming himself.

The appearance of the 21 year old was just so unexpected.

Jungkook held out his hand and suddenly smiled.

A bright, wide, eye-crescent-ing smile.

"Hello."

Taehyung took his hand and instantly knew this guy was legit.

His grip was firmer than he was used to, falling submissive towards the power.

"Well, we'll be going back now," Mr. Bang said. "Fix yourself up— I'll be in the car."

The man started on his way down the hallway, leaving the idol and his bodyguard alone.

"I'll be waiting outside your door," Jungkook stated and bowed, standing straighter than a brick in front of the apartment complexes walls.

"Okay, thanks," Taehyung dumbly said.

Why're you thankful? It's literally just his job, he scolded himself and shut the front door behind him before Jungkook could do anything.

"You ready?" Jungkook asked, noticing that the man changed out of his heart character pajamas.

He was now wearing a matching, loose and grey outfit.

"Yeah," he answered and started to walk.

The younger began to walk as well, taking his place next to the older.

"So, I heard the bodyguard before me got fired," Jungkook began to small talk. "Was it secretly because of you or something?"

The younger was smirking, making Taehyung roll his eyes.

"No," Taehyung partially lied. The man always knew he shouldn't waste time by talking to fans, yet he did it anyway.

"He just didn't do his job right."

"How so?" Jungkook pushed the subject, holding open the elevator door for his higher up.

"Too soft, I guess," Taehyung pressed the ground level button and folded his arms.

I wonder if he's soft, Taehyung wondered as he side-eyed the bodyguard.

All he figured out from the younger's expression was that he had a handsome side profile.

"Mm," was all he had to say, releasing the hum in a "conversation concluding" type of way.

The elevator doors dinged open and they exited in silence, making their way towards the car.
