After checking on Jimin and Taehyung to make sure they aren't seriously hurt, I have to practically force Jungkook to go get a few more hours of sleep before their schedule begins this afternoon. He gives me a sly grin and agrees to go to his room, but not to sleep. My mind instantly goes into the gutter.

"Um...what are you planning to do in there?" Don't look down. Don't look down. Don't look down.

He jiggles his camera bag. "Editing. I'm working on something."

Oh. Oh. So I guess I'm the only perv here.

"Will I get to see it?"

He nods. "Soon."

He heads off to his room and I go into mine. Suddenly exhausted, I slip off my hoodie and joggers and get into bed with just my t-shirt and panties. I think to lock my door in case Taehyung tries to come in and get some cuddles but before I can muster the strength to get back up, I'm fast asleep.

In what feels like just a couple minutes later, I wake to the sound of my phone going insane with alerts. Still dazed and my vision cloudy with slumber, I blindly pick it up to silence it.

Then I remember.

Oh shit.

I sit straight up and rub the sleep out of my eyes. I'd set Google alerts for certain keywords surrounding BTS. And one, in particular, is popping up like crazy.

Jungkook.

All over the Internet, people are proclaiming to have seen him in the park with a woman. There are even pictures, although they're blurry and are only of our backs. There's no way anyone can tell it's us, and most of the allegations are based on the fact they everyone knows he has an affinity for bucket hats and filming. However, that doesn't stop the outlandish rumors. We're reported to have been doing everything from making out to fighting. Someone even said I was a crazed sasaeng and Jungkook was running away from me, not with me. And of course, the descriptions of me aren't much better. Ugly, fat, and let's not forget a few racist slurs. Oh my god. How can they live like this?

However, there are bright spots. I log on to Twitter to see that Jungkook wasn't merely updating their account for the hell of it earlier this morning. He was posting a picture...of him, Jimin and Hoseok. A selca they took during our slumber party with them all fresh-faced and cute in pajamas. The caption reads Good Morning from 3J #JK although it was very much nighttime when it was taken. Still, no one outside of us eight would know that and it gives the impression that it would be impossible that Jungkook was at the park with some strange woman because he was cuddled up in pjs with his members.

And honestly...it kinda works.

The comments are a mixture of swoon and skepticism. Some still aren't convinced and boldly post their doubts. However, several more defend Jungkook, demanding they respect his privacy and keep their negativity to themselves and off the maknae's photos. I have to hand it to them—ARMYs don't play. And they don't tolerate anyone trying to come for the members with rudeness or entitlement.

But while they try their hardest, that doesn't stop the rumors and theories from spawning. #JungkookGirlfriend is trending with the craziest, most elaborate stories concocted about me. Several posters even claim that they were actually the ones in the park with JK. Most of the stories are pretty funny and obviously satirical. Others...just downright hateful. As if they can't imagine or accept that their idol could ever be with someone that's not them. When I get to the graphic threats of violence, I figure it's time to log off.

I don't get it. Do they expect for them to be alone forever? Do they actually care for the guys' happiness or only their own selfishness and delusions? And what if one of them went public with their relationship. Would they stop stanning? Would they threaten them too?
