The Eighth Member • A BTS Fanfic (Jimin x Reader/oc)

Chapter 29

"Chris, please just take down the video," Jimin is calmly speaking.
"Gimme the phone," Jimin gives the phone to Namjoon and he starts speaking softly.
"Jimin, you didn't have to–"
"Yes I did. You're my girlfriend and I don't want you to be caught in a scandal before you've had your debut,"

"Aw crap, speaking of scandals," I pull out my phone and see a lot of things happening in my Twiter feed.
"What's happening?" He asks.
"The sasaeng fans are taking over," I show him my Twiter page and he sees the terrible comments and even death threats popping up.
"I need to say something!" He tries to grab my phone.
"No don't do it Jimin! I'll be exposed, I think it's also a violation of the company rules," I say.

"What? It's social media. I'll say I know you personally and turn the negative away. They are targeting you because of me, and they figured out those pictures of me were nowhere else on the Internet so, I will tell them that you are a friend," I suddenly think about the j-hope's sister's best friend issue.
"Nah, I'm good. Just do it on vlive and then post that to Twiter," I say.
"That's not a bad idea..." He grabs his phone out, and I am exposed. I quickly duck behind Namjoon. He's tall enough to cover me, so I ignore his confused looks and turn him so his back is facing the camera.

"Hi everyone! Sorry for the sudden post but I wanted to address an ongoing issue. There is this account that posts pictures of me online and that person is a friend of mine. I would appreciate if all of you just left my friend alone. I don't want anyone getting hurt and seeing them in this state is very alarming," he stops to look at the comments.
"Yeah...it's very scary when it happens to someone close to you. I usually don't speak out like this either, so it is very different. I love my hyungs as well as my friends. All I want is for them to be happy," he stops again. I pull it up on my phone and type something in. He looks at my direction and I smile.
"My happiness? I tend not to think about myself when it comes to others. I love others more than myself actually," I nearly break into tears. He has a smile when he says this too.
"If you look here we have a rare Namjoon," he points the camera at us and I look at RM in panic. He gives me a comforting gaze and turns around slowly. This gives me time to crouch.
"Hey guys! I want to say thank you for the love and support, we appreciate you! Please don't spread hate through the Internet. Just love each other. And you should especially love yourself," he winks.
"Hyung..." I laugh at how cute he is. And I can't believe that he is literally standing next to me.
"Let's go look for the others," Jimin presses his nose near the lens.
"I know I have a good nose," I smile at him.

The vlive finally ends when Jimin showed everyone and said his final message and everyone was content. As soon as the camera turned off, I run to him. I hug him tightly.
"Thank you for doing that. You are amazing,"
"No problem, now they will leave you alone," I sort of frown and show him the Twiter. There are still mean comments popping up, just less than before. This time, Jimin puts on a stern face and records a message on my phone. I let him.

"LEAVE HER ALONE! Please, you are making us sad. Me, and everyone is sad. Look, Taehyung is crying!" Jimin shows a close up of him as we make him cry on command.

"We all just want peace, just love and respect each other," Jimin stops recording. I finally see the frustration in his eyes as he posts the video, and he sees the impact it has on the ARMY. The comments just stop flooding in five seconds after he posts the video on my account. And then this pops up:

SweetyteaSugabearJin: O M G is she with them? Has she been with BTS this whole time?😫😖😭

Suganeckpillow01: That's what it looks like. I think she was there when Jimin started his vlive.😨😱😰

Taeandgang86: Just leave her alone. I have a bad feeling about this. Even Park Jimin posted it on her account. Let's just leave. 😒

And that is all we hear about that. The manager suddenly calls Namjoon.
"Yes? Oh that's fine," he gets off the phone.
"He said they are not releasing a statement because we managed to resolve the situation," we all relax well into the evening, and then Gee gets called by Chris.
Me and the seven guys are left.
"Wanna play a game?" Jungkook asks me.
"Sure," he pulls me next to Hoseok and suddenly I am playing a video game.
"Wanna make a song?" Yoongi asks me.
"Sure," I am then pulled into a recording studio filled with instruments and within the next 30 minutes, we make a trash song.
"Great," he tells me.

"Wanna make love?" Taehyung whispers in my ear. (Lol that sounds wrong)
"What does that even mean?" I ask.
He pulls me into a bush with him (we are suddenly outside).
"See those two people?" I nod. A man is sitting on bench reading a book and a woman is talking on the phone.
"They are in love. We have to make it happen," he tells me.
"What?" I yell.
"Shhh," we peek and he puts a banana peel on the ground next to the woman. Surely enough, she walks backwards and trips but the guy is there to catch her and then they fall in love.
"Isn't it great?" He asks as we see the new couple walk hand in hand.
"Yeah, I guess," I answer.
"Before I stalked them and observed them. They have been meeting at the same time right here at the park and pretend that it's a coincidence. They just needed a push in the right direction," he says. I roll my eyes. It's creepy to think about, but Tae has his heart in the right place so I guess it's sweet.
"Someday, I hope to fall in love properly," he fantasizes.
"Yeah, don't worry about it. I'm sure you will find your true love. I did, and look how happy I am," I smile and console him. "Let's head home,"

"Min-Ji," Jin calls me.
"What?" I ask.
"You have mail," I tear open the envelope.
"What is it?" He asks.

"It's my schedule for next week!"
