Barriers - Taehyung || Complete

Ch. 22

The next two weeks have been the same. I would wake the guys up for their music show and they would win first place. Ever since Taehyung and I admitted our love to each other, we were able to find all the little moments to be together, whether it would be in bed with him when I attempt to wake him up, or when we're in the dressing room together. I felt like I was on cloud nine, the man I love loves me back. But the thought of that love started to scare me when the last America meeting takes place, and there was only one person I wanted to talk to about this...Amy.

I let Amy have a lot of days off these last two weeks because she deserves it. Since I would be doing the same routine there was really no need for her to be there as well. I haven't seen her in a while and I wanted to talk to her about this situation with Taehyung, as well as my future here. I promised Jongin I would talk to her and get her opinion. 

I walked into the building and went straight into Amy's office holding her iced americano. "Good morning, unnie."

"Ah, thank you, Y/n." she grabbed her coffee and set it down. "Listen, thank you so much for letting me have these days off. I was actually able to see my boyfriend a lot more and we're doing great."

"No worries! I'm glad you were able to enjoy your days off. Um," I set my bag down and sat in the chair across her desk. "Can I talk to you about something? Well, actually, some things."

"Go ahead." she smiled and crossed her arms on the desk.

"I wanted to get your opinion on something. My driver, Jongin, and I have become pretty good friends over the last couple months and he thinks that I should stay here. He thinks I should stay here and continue being your assistant while going to school, pretty much move my whole life here."

"That Jongin has some opinion huh." she said in amusement. "I agree with him though." I raised my eyebrows at her response. "Y/n, I have had a lot of assistants in the past and not one has become more than an assistant. I consider us friends, good friends actually."

"I feel that way too."

"You're set to leave in a month. It may seem like a short time but it's actually enough time to really think about it. And if you decide to stay then it is something we can talk to Bang PD about. We can set a different schedule for you so that way you can still go to school. I will be here to help teach you the language, same with Jongin. And as a bonus, you have the guys with you."

"Right. Speaking of the guys.." I trailed off and couldn't figure out how to tell her this. "Taehyung and I have gotten really close these last couple of months. Super close in fact...I love him. And he loves me." I was too embarrassed to look at Amy so I just looked down to my lap. She didn't say anything. I continued staring down until she said something.

"I told you not to get too involved with them." she took her arms off the desk and crossed them across her chest.

"I know." I felt guilty. "But he is the only one I have been with, and it just kind of happened. I really tried not to fall for him, but he kept doing these things that would make me fall for him more. And now I have to include him in my upcoming decision."

"If you stay...are you going to be okay keeping your relationship a secret for as long as you're together? Knowing him, he will do anything to protect you and that means making sure you don't get caught in the public eye and risking your endangerment. Can you handle that?"

"I've been handling it so far."

"But for how long?"

I looked up at her and felt myself becoming sad. "I don't know."

After talking to Amy, she really did help give me more insight on my decision to stay. We headed over to the meeting, it would be the last meeting to talk about America and their city dates. As always, Amy sat next to me and this time, Namjoon sat next to me. Before the executives walked in, Namjoon and I talked for a little bit.

"Are you excited to go back home for a little bit?" he asked.

"I'm so excited! I'm happy the company gave me a couple days off to visit my family. Are you happy to be going back on tour?"

"Hell yeah! The different cultures, the food, I'm ready for all of it. You'll be there on our concert days right?"

"Yup! As soon as we land I have the first two days off to visit my family. And then the rest of the week I will be with you guys." 

"When we come back here you will only have a month left." Namjoon was also sad about my leaving. "Is there any way you can stay?"

"Can you keep a secret?" he nodded. "I'm thinking about staying here. There really wasn't anything holding me back here to stay. Don't get me wrong, you guys, Amy, and my driver have been some of the best people I have come to know. But I knew I had to get back to school in America eventually even though there's opportunities here for me. But then...Taehyung came along and it's making me want to stay, for him."

He smiled widely. "I think you should stay. You're obviously happy and Taehyung is happy being with you. Three months is going by really fast and you haven't really gotten to explore the city."

"I will let you guys know by the end of the month if I'll be staying. It's a lot to think about."

Namjoon put his hand over mine and assured to me that everything will be okay. I could feel a tear forming and before I started crying, I wiped it away and smiled at Namjoon. I looked over to Taehyung and he gave me a wink along with a slight smile. 

If I decide to stay, it would be for you... Tae.
