Min-Ji POV
BTS has received a lot of positive feedback from the video of the Truth Untold. After working so hard, they still haven't gotten a break. It's been a month and they are going to perform "fake love" for the last time. Now I have taken on a new role, as being a fake staff and helping the real staff with stuff. For concerts, (yea I've been to 5 concerts already bc I'm that awesome in this story) I have to fan and spray the guys with water. Me and Jimin have decided to be extra careful, since our relationship is technically illegal so we've been hiding it. Even if his real age is younger, he is still over 18. Now I'm backstage and for the 3rd time, I witness them fight.
"You have to run across stage because I'm not getting to my spot in time," Jin tells J-Hope.
"Yeah, I know. But I have to get to the middle position for Airplane p.2 so after your solo with Namjoon, you have to immediately go to the side, okay. Wait, patience is key,"
"I'm already waiting, but I'm telling you to move faster,"

"There's nothing wrong with the way I'm moving hyung I already told you this!"
"Guys, calm down. We have to go out there and show our best performance to ARMY. What matters right now is not the position but whether you are hitting the moves on time or not. We'll fix blocking when we get out there, okay?" Namjoon steps in, being a good leader and the men part ways. I fan Jimin, and he's already breaking a sweat.
"This is the first time those two are fighting. They usually work so well together," I comment.
"Yeah. It's surprising to me too. On the bright side, they'll make up before they go to sleep," I sit next to him.
"How about you?"
"Mmm?"
"How are you holding up? I want to make sure you aren't too stressed. Take it easy, alright Jiminie?" I sweetly call my boyfriend.
"I will. But know that I'd do anything for ARMY,"
"I know. That's why I like you so much," we share exhausted smiles and then is showtime. By the end of the night, I peer out onto stage and see the connection that the fans and BTS share. They don't want to leave each other and the feelings go both ways. When they finally leave stage, I hear the fans chant for an encore. Jimin gives me a smile and then goes back out onto stage for an unplanned solo dance of serendipity.
"We don't have time! Min-Ji Ah, you know the dance, right?! Put this on and join him!" I random staff member hands me a coordinated dress that matches Jimin's classic Serendipity look and I wear a black over coat to draw attention away. I think all the staff secretly know about us, so when they urge me to do this, I am 100 times more stressed. A tired Jungkook looks at me from the couch while breathing heavily and surrounded by staff to give me a thumbs up. I don't even put on makeup, I just throw the dress on.
"우주가 우릴 위해 움직였어
조금의 어긋남 조차 없었어
너와 행복은 예정됐던
'Cause you love me and I love you" he sings and has a look of surprise when me and two other dancers stumble on stage, but I'm the only female so I think I'm pretty noticeable. We had coordinated our moves before, so it's no surprise when we move in sync. The fans just die cheering and we feel more encouraged. Jimin takes a bow, and I run off stage during the same time as the other dancers. After everything we go home. It's about 1 am, and we just all sit in the living room, ready to go to bed. Jimin embraces me, and then kisses my forehead lightly.
"You were great honey," he compliments.
"So were you," I pull his collar lightly.
"Ugh stop flirting already, we get it you love each other," Gee says.
"As if you and Hoseok aren't any worse," I tease back. Hobi laughs and pulls his girlfriend next to him.
"I wanna get a girlfriend too, but maintaining relationships is hard. You guys are lucky Gee and Min-Ji personally work with us," Tae frowns.
"It's all about timing. You'll find someone soon," Jimin comforts his brother.
"Thanks. I'm gonna go to bed now,"
"Hey J-Hope, can I talk to you?" Jin asks. He nods and they go to another room.
"They're gonna Hug...ew," Yoongi teases.
"Night!" I say and kiss Jimin on the cheek. I wave at everyone and retire.

The day has come. We released the teaser trailer and now we will be filming the live performance. Well, "live." For the next concept, I am introduced. I think I am an important person. Not a sister, or a lover, just a concept. A symbol. That's what I think of.
"Ready baby?" Jimin asks.
"Yeah. As I'll ever be,"
"Then let's set up," we go to our starting positions in the dark and start the performance.

The fans loved it. They had no idea what was happening but the crowd went wild.
"You guys, we want to introduce our eighth member: Min-Ji!!!!!!" RM yells. Everyone freaks out.
"Hi everyone, I was an ARMY like you but now I am a part of BTS. I love this group and everyone. Thank you," I bow and everyone claps for me. A tear runs down my cheek and I share a hug with my new family.

I will forever love Bangtan.
