I was in the elevator heading up to my managers office where they wanted to speak with me. I go inside to see Taeyong and his manager along with the CEO Sooman. They probably already saw the news that got posted.

Manager: Ah you're here please sit.

I sit down and he continues to speak.

Manager: You probably already know why you're here right?
Taeyong: The dating thing right?
Manager 2: yes

Taeyong spoke in a cold tone.

Taeyong: So what? You want us to break up or something?
Seulgi: Taeyong-
Sooman: No no no! That's not why! We called you both to confirm if it's true, but by the way your defense built up it is true.
Seulgi: So we can continue to be together?
Sooman: Some fans are really supporting this and some aren't too happy, but let me ask you both this how much do care about each other.
Taeyong: Does it matter how much I care about her just know I do...a lot.
Seulgi: Taeyong Please calm down.
Taeyong: I am!
Seulgi: No you're not shh.
Sooman: You guys really do keep each other in check. Not really match made in heaven, but somewhere there. Okay what matters is your happiness if you're happy being together I can't do anything about it.
Seulgi: Thank you so much! Um manager do we have anything planned today?
Manager: No we do not it's your rest day.
Seulgi: Oh okay then.
Taeyong: Then you won't mind if I take her away for the day then right?
Manager: Uh no she needs to re-
Sooman: Let the kids go out and have fun now that the word is out they will feel more comfortable out in public.
Manager: Okay then. Where do you guys plan on going?
Taeyong: Probably just going to walk around to see what pleases us.
Manager: okay then. Have fun.

We were later excused and went to a Thai restaurant. We got seated and started looking at what to order.

Taeyong: What are you getting?
Seulgi: Hmmm probably the Yellow Tofu curry. Hold on I have to use the bathroom real quick.

He nods his head and I head into the lady's room. I finish doing my business and notice 3 girls walk in. I didn't pay attention to them and just minded my own business. When I was about to leave one of them yelled my name excitedly. I'm guessing they're fans.

Fan1: Seulgi!!!
Seulgi: Uh..Oh Hi hello!
Fan2: Omg! Are you here with the other members too!!
Seulgi: Ah no I'm not.
Fan3: Wait! You're with Taeyong?! Aren't you?!
Seulgi: Yes I am here with him, but we're just trying keep it on the low and not cause a ruckus. Please don't say anything.
Fan1: No it's okay! Can we take a picture with you at least?

I nod my head yes and then go outside not realizing the girls were following me. Once I sat down I noticed them.

Taeyong: Um....
Fan1: Omg he is here!
Fan2: Omg it's actually him!
Fan3: I can't believe it!
Seulgi: Girls keep it down please!
Fan1: Sorry we're leaving now! Let's go!
Fan3: Stop taking pics of them!
Fan2: Sorry!

They leave quickly and I look at Taeyong who was completely lost. He didn't even bother questioning it since it happens to a lot of idols. We ate our food and walked around a little bit talking. We suddenly run into Eunbi and Sakura.

Eunbi: Oh hello!
Taeyong: Hi...?
Eunbi: So is this the lucky girl?
Taeyong: Yes it is. See Sakura she's real and I'm not lying.
Sakura: So what she probably doesn't even actually like you.
Seulgi: I'm sorry, but if I didn't have feelings for him I wouldn't be here right now, would I?
Eunbi: I'm sorry about her she's being a little selfish and bitchy....
Sakura: Excuse me!
Eunbi: What it's true and I don't care if I say it.
Sakura: You're supposed to help back me up ugh! We should've brought Yena!
Eunbi: Eh stop being so childish and let's go!

They leave quickly and Taeyong looks at me blankly not knowing how to respond to that.

Taeyong: Well um....I...I don't know.
Seulgi: Neither do I.

We go back to the dorms and When I was going to get off the 6 floor. Taeyong back hugs me not letting me leave.

Seulgi: Taeyong.... What's wrong?
Taeyong: I just want to spend time with you, Seulgi-ah.
Seulgi: Okay Where do you want to go?
Taeyong: Literally anywhere is fine, I just want to be with you.
Seulgi: Then let's go to your dorm and hangout there?
Taeyong: Yeah we can do that.

We go to his dorm and we hang in his room he quickly went to the bathroom and he gets a phone call so I answered for him since it was an unknown number.

Seulgi: Hello?
???: Oh? I think I have the wrong number. Is there a Lee Taeyong?
Seulgi: Ah yes this is his phone he's currently busy right now. Who is this?
Sihyeon: This is his friend, Sihyeon. Wait who is this?
Seulgi: I'm his girlfriend, Seulgi.
Sihyeon: Oh..so you're the bitch he didn't stop crying about. You hurt him you know that he almost hurt himself. Why does he even like you he should be with me not you! I was his first-!
Seulgi: W...Wha-

Before I could hear anymore Taeyong yanked the phone away from me then hung up. He drops his phone on the bed, sits down then looks at me with a concerned face.

Taeyong: Are you okay?
Seulgi: Taeyong? Who was that girl...? Sihyeon?
Taeyong: I really do need to get my number changed. It was a Sasaeng. I don't know anyone by the name Sihyeon.
Seulgi: Sasaeng's tend to know a lot so did you try to hurt yourself?

He looks at me with no expression and sighs.

Taeyong: It doesn't matter anymore I didn't do it. Johnny Caught me almost doing it.
Seulgi: What do you mean it doesn't matter? It matters a lot to me! Why did you even try?
Taeyong: Like I told you. I wasn't stable especially after our break up it made it worse.
Seulgi: Let me see your arms.
Taeyong: I'm surprised you didn't notice them when we had sex-
Seulgi: let me see them please.

He confidently rolled up both sleeves and he didn't have any besides 3 scars on his left wrist.

Taeyong: Happy?
Seulgi: Were these recent?
Taeyong: No these were back in my trainee days I did it too deep so they're noticeable.
Seulgi: Oh Taeyong. Please don't ever try to do that again.

I was tearing up and he quickly hugs me. Then chuckles a little bit.

Taeyong: Haha, why are you crying shouldn't I be the one crying?
Seulgi: I'm sorry I'm just very sensitive to this I lost someone I cared about due to this. I don't want to lose you too.
Taeyong: You won't, I'm perfectly fine now. You don't have to worry. What you should be worried about is how the fuck did that sasaeng know I almost did that? I'm on the fucking 7th floor does she suddenly fly?!
Seulgi: Taeyong....
Taeyong: What?!

He said with an angry tone.

Seulgi: I-I um
Taeyong: I'm so sorry....
Seulgi: No it's okay, but something red is blinking on your book shelf.

He widened his eyes and quickly grabbed my a pillow covering mine and his face. He then gets up and we slowly leave the dorm along with Johnny who was in his room with Irene. He then calls the manager.

Johnny: What's going on?
Irene: You guys are freaking me out what happened.
Taeyong: There was a camera in my room and I don't know if there's more around the whole place. The manager will be here soon.

Taeyong was still on the phone with the manager once they finished.

Taeyong: We can't sleep there tonight we have to go to one of the members.
Johnny: Okay yeah I can give them a call.
Irene: Or you can stay with us!
Johnny: Are you sure? Don't you share a room?
Irene: No I have my own.

We headed to our dorm and we started getting ready for bed. Suddenly he took his shirt off.
