Promise

Chapter II

     Jimin was back in the studio rehearsing and going over the details of their comeback album with the rest of BTS members. Since they had been there since the early morning, most of them are laying on the ground and giving their bodies and minds a break. As much as they want to complain and ask for longer breaks, they knew completing and perfecting their album was more important.

They will be releasing their fifth full album in less than two months' time. Just like their past albums, they all worked hard but this time, Jimin could feel that they were all trying to double up what they have been doing. He could feel that Namjoon or Rapmon as he was mostly known for, and Suga, had been working nonstop in perfecting their title track and all their songs. As a fellow dancer, he could feel Ho-seok's frustration when he couldn't figure out how to perfect a step. BTS's vocal line Seok-jin or Jin, Jung-kook and Tae-hyung have also been finding their own corners, quietly listening and learning how to perfectly reach every note of the songs.

Without saying it, Jimin knew everyone was feeling the pressure and the burden from all people's expectations. Their desire to meet these expectations had them working hard like they never did before.

This, combined with their frustrations and tired minds and body, couldn't help but bring tensions into the room. Some of them became sensitive over a few things and just vented their frustrations into the people around them. Sometimes it took some time for them to cool down, but most of the time, like most of their misunderstanding, they were able to patch it up right away. It wasn't their first time dealing with a lot of pressure, therefore they somehow knew how to deal when there were somethings going on between them. They had to set aside their personal feelings and redirected their focus on what needs to be done and that was to complete the album.

"Ah, I'm so hungry," a groan added into the heavy breathing in the dance studio.

"Why is the chicken not here yet?"

"That's what I'm also wondering. God, I'm really hungry."

"Did we order enough chicken?"

"I ordered three large boxes."

"I also ordered jajangmyeon and burgers."

"I'm really hungry."

"It should be here in a few minutes."

The conversation around him made Jimin smile from where he was lying. It was already eight in the evening when they decided to take a break. They all should watch their diet since they are preparing for a comeback, but they were doing the opposite. Their leader who was supposed to make sure they were following the rule was even the first one to mention food.

"Guys, I bought energy drinks," their manager's voice joined the conversation around him.

"Ah Hyung! We need food. Chicken, chicken, chicken!" whined Seok Jin. He was their oldest member but most of the time acted like a five-year-old kid with a lot of energy he needed to release from his body.

Another member agreed. "Hyung, energy drink can't save me right now. I need food."

Being with them for almost five years, he was already used to their personalities. "You told me you were not hungry when I asked a while ago. Now you have to wait."

"By the way, don't forget that you have a fitting for your suits tomorrow."

"Hyung, we always wear a suit. Why do we have to do those things again and again?"
