"Sorry for that, guys," Taehyung says and smiles.

He closes Jungkook's dressing room door. I look at Jimin, who seems pissed off. The couch on the opposite side of the room from Jimin has two vacant spots, which I assume would be occupied by Taehyung and me. But Taehyung pushes me toward's Jimin's couch.

"Go ahead and sit," Taehyung says, sitting on the other couch. "Jimin won't bite."

I look back at Taehyung as I take the spot on the right of Jimin.

Taehyung seemed like he was mocking Jimin, as if to say, 'Here, let her sit next to you. You'll never have her anyway.'

Jimin glares at Taehyung and puts his left arm around my shoulders.

The tension in the air is so thick, any molecule in the room could cause combustion. It feels so awkward.

"Anyways," Taehyung says. "Yoongi, Hoseok. This is Lily."

"It's nice to meet you," Yoongi says.

"Me, too," Hoseok says and smiles brightly.

His eyes smiled with his mouth.

"It's great to finally meet everyone from the group," I say.

"Yeah, it's great to see a girl with Taehyung..." Hoseok says. "I mean Jimin...?"

"Don't worry about it," Taehyung says and grins. "When's the show starting, guys?"

He didn't even tell them I was his girl.

"Who invited you here?" Jimin says.

Taehyung scoffs, "I invited myself, kid."

"I'm older than you," Jimin says, clenching his fist.

"You're still in school and my net worth is twice as much as yours," Taehyung says. "It's not age-wise, it's status-wise."

I quickly take Jimin's hands.

If he squeezes them too hard, he might open the scars back up.

I look at his palms, which were seriously red.

"Don't do that," I whisper to him.

I feel Jimin tense up, so I put my hand on this knee. He sighs and leans back.

I've never seen Taehyung act like this before, and I've never been in the same room as the two of them. What the hell is happening?

He's usually a fun, loving guy, but the second you give him something he doesn't like, he becomes such an asshole. I hate it.

"The house already opened," Jungkook says, trying to clear the air. "Should be starting in twenty minutes."

"Shouldn't you go change?" I ask Jimin.

He nods and stands up, "Thanks for reminding me."

He heads towards the door, "See you guys in a bit."

"Later," Yoongi says.

"Good luck!" Hoseok shouts.

The tension remains.

Someone knocks on the door and Taehyung stands up to open it.

"Hey, guys," Taehyung says as Jin and Namjoon walk in. "We're about to take our seats in the house."

"Did Jimin just leave?" Namjoon asks.

"Yeah, he's changing right now," Jungkook says. "I have to go backstage in a few minutes."

"You missed the catfight," Yoongi says and laughs.

Jin stands near the door and looks at me, "Were they torturing you?"
