"What is this?!" Lauren says dropping the phone in shock.

The picture was Suga trying to feed Lauren. The other picture was the one at the party.

The caption indicates:
BigHits new Forever Violet girl group centre, Lauren Jang, is dating BTS member, Yoongi Min.

"I just remembered I was going to go home a bit early to get some practice done privately. I'll see you guys." Lauren says with a nice fake smile.

"Bye." Ari says smirking. She was happy that she was humiliated.

Lauren was walking home, silently scrolling through Instagram on her phone. Suddenly, her phone rings.

"Hello?" She asks picking it up.

"Where the heck are you? Why aren't you at practice?" Manager Sejin yells.

"Sorry. I wanted to get some vocal practice by myself, but everyone else was as well."

"Lauren, remember your first performance is in a month you have to present you're first song, Blooming, at Gocheok dome and on music bank. I expect you to do well after all, you're our centre. Also, don't forget the contract, idols can date any other people while in entertainment. Do I make myself clear?"

"Yes. I won't bother you anymore, I'll get going. Good bye."

One month later, Gocehok dome:

"Hey Lauren, are you ok?" Anahita asks as she comes with her backstage, "lauren?"

"Ya I'm fine, just... Just leave me alone." She says staring right into her phone.

"Yeesh, well I'm sorry for bothering you. I was only trying to be nice, and if u don't need me you could've said it nicer." Anahita walks away

Lauren keeps reading the comments on her phone:
-Haha how could a stupid person like you become an idol?
-are you really dating Yoongi?
-Who do you think you are
- maybe you're just someone who became an idol to date Yoongi. There is no other reason why such a bad singer like you would join BigHit.
-... I can't say anything to someone who has a ugly voice, not to mention an uglier face

The comments kept going on. Lauren turns off her phone she sighs as she gets her makeup done.

"It's time to perform." Namjoon says.

"Let's go!" Diana says

The audience cheers. The performance for the song Blooming was on. The crowd screamed everyone's name, except Lauren. All she had in her mind was that she sucked. Then at the end of the performance, some girl threw a juice box at Lauren.

"How dare you steal Yoongi you jerk!" One girl yells.

"You suck!" Another guy yells

"Did you get plastic surgery? And it still looks bad!" Someone else laughs.

Lauren couldn't help it anymore, she runs off the stage and runs out the back door exit. She heads straight to the bar. The first place where she and Suga met. Lauren sniffles, then starts crying.

"What's wrong?" Asks the bartender

"This is the first place I met a guy. I think a guy that I actually loved, but now everyone is telling me to stay away. What did I ever do to deserve this?"

The bartender doesn't say anything about that. Instead he asks if she need anything.

"Do you have any knifes? Not plastic real ones because the nice I have at home got bent and I can't use it to cut food."

"Sure! I'll be right back." The bartender says as he brings out a small but useable knife. Bigger than a butter knife, smaller than a knife knife.

"Thanks." Lauren says still crying.

"No problem."

Lauren puts the knife in her bad as she is still wearing the outfit from the concert. It was raining as lauren walked in the forest. She stood on a hill as she calls Yoongi.

"Where are you?!" Yoongi yells.

"I don't want to ruin your career." Lauren sniffs as she cries more.

"Just tell me where you are!"

Lauren says to Suga as she brings out her knife,
"Yoongi. I..."
"Love..."
"You..."

*beep beep* the phone goes off.

"L-lauren?" Yoongi drops his phone, "no this can't be! If If only you told me where you were lauren... If only I caught you in time, this wouldn't have happened."

Yoongi looked for her but ended up not being able to find her. He then gave up until he stumbled upon a rock in the forest. He stood up as he saw someone on a hill, lying down.

"Lauren?" Yoongi runs as fast as he can.

He bends over the girl to check if it's her. It was lauren.

"No... No... You can't die now. W-we just became closer and you leave me now. It's all my fault... I'm sorry, I'm sorry it's my fault for loving you in the first place." Yoongi cries heavily. A tear striped down his face onto Lauren's. He holds lauren right, "I love you too, Lauren..."
