Kim Taehyung's POV

"Are you ready?" I asked Jungkook. He is sitting in one of the make-up rooms. My own make-up artist is putting him in makeup so that makes him look presentable.

We made him wear casual attire again. I was waiting for him since I am the first one to take care of my own stylist.

"I am a little bit nervous. This is my first time doing a press conference, and I am sure many people will be there," Jungkook said. I can see in his voice and face that he is so nervous.

I held his hand, then put it in my lap, and I said, "Don't be nervous, hon. I am with you; if you don't know the answer, I am the one who will answer for you."

He smiled and said, "Thank you, hon." I can see he is feeling relaxed now.

"Taehyung~ah, the press conference is already ready," Jimin informed us when he walked inside the make-up room.

Jungkook stood up and held my hand on him. He is so handsome. I will make sure that in the future I make him always wear casual clothes.

"Woah! You look so handsome, Captain Jeon!" Jimin commented when he saw my boyfriend.

"Nice choice, Taehyung~ah," my personal make-up artist said. I smiled at them because they supported me in everything.

"Let's go, hon," I said, looking at Jungkook.

He pecked my lips again and said, "I need a kiss so that I can lessen my nervousness."

Jimin and my personal make-up artist reacted when Jungkook pecked my lips, but I don't mind.

I and Jungkook walked down the hallway, holding hands together. I feel excited for the press conference since everyone will know that I am the one who is dating Jeon Jungkook, not Lalisa Manoban.

When we come inside the press conference room, They immediately took pictures of us. Jungkook guided me to sit in the chair, and we greeted the reporters and paparazzi who attended our press conference.

"Let's welcome the highest-paid model in South Korea, Kim Taehyung!" I gave them a bow when I was introduced. The crowd quickly clapped and took some pictures.

"Let's also welcome the youngest captain of the defense task force, Captain Jeon Jungkook!" Jungkook is also introduced, and he also did what I did. When he sat down, his left hand held my laps.

"Hello, Taehyung and Jungkook! Everyone is talking about you both through the news and any social media platforms." We both nodded as we were aware of what he was talking about.

"I don't want to put some cliché pressure on you guys, but we want to know what is going on between both of you. Why are you both arriving yesterday morning holding each other?" The host didn't put some beating around the bush. He directs to the point what the purpose of the press conference is.

I laughed, and I answered, "Isn't that obvious? I and Jungkook are in a relationship."

The crowd was gasping, and then I could hear their typing sounds on their laptops. The cameras keep flashing on us.

Jungkook holding my tight made me look at him to see if he was okay. I saw him smiling and feeling proud of himself.

"Oh wait! There's a question from the reporters." The host was informed that the reporters have some questions.

"Hello! This question is for Captain Jeon," a reporter said when he was given a chance to ask a question. I look at Jungkook's reaction when he is the one who is going to ask first; however, I only see his calm posture, which makes me feel better.

"Captain Jeon, you and Lalisa Manoban were spotted last month having a dinner date at the Seoul restaurant. You didn't give any statement about it. Care to explain if you and Lalisa used to date each other?" The reporter asked. I gave Jungkook the mic and held his hand tightly, which made him feel that I was supporting him.

"I and Lalisa Manoban are childhood friends only. When I and her were spotted having a dinner, we were just coming back from a mission since it was successful. Lisa treated me to a dinner." Jungkook answered the question, making the reporters clear on the rumor about it.

The microphone was given to other reporters, and she asked, "When did you both meet each other and develop feelings for each other?"

The reporter's question is making me blush. I covered my face to make the crowd laugh at my reaction.

"You blushing so much, hon," Jungkook said in the mic. He is teasing me; that's why I started blushing more.

"Oh! "Hon" is your both call sign," the reporter said.

"Hon, you are the one who should answer her questions," I whispered to Jungkook. He laughed at me.

"He insists that I am the one who should answer your question. I think my baby feels so shy right now," Jungkook said, making the crowd laugh again.

"Well, I was assigned to be a bodyguard for him in his one main event, then something happened that time, and then I met him personally." The reporter wrote everything on what Jungkook's said.

"I think I developed my feelings for him when we were in Daegu. I saw how he is dedicated and determined to save people. I was amazed at him so much."

I was shocked by what he said. This is my first time hearing that.

I and Jungkook shared our love story together. The reporters are satisfied with the information that they get. They want to ask some questions, but we need to go since I and Jungkook have to attend an event.

"You both are whipped for each other!" Jimin said when we arrived at the make-up room.

"The hand placement of Captain Jeon is at a at a higher level," Jimin continued bragging. I only chuckled at him.

"I love touching what's mine," Jungkook said, then wrapped his hand around my waist. He is behind me and has put his face on my shoulder.
