ten - public.

-ˋˏ ༻❁༺ ˎˊ-

schedules were a success today but oh my god, am i exhausted. i kept going from the office, to the dance studio, to the pantry, to the shops for the company and the boys. nonetheless, it felt rewarding to see the boys' smile, especially jinyoung's, as they rest on the dance studio floor, catching their breaths from their gym session after the dance practice today.

"hey, uh (y/n)?" jackson broke the silence. i hm-ed, turning to him with a questioning gaze.

"when are you planning to tell the company and eventually the fans?" he asked, sipping out of his water bottle.

"r-right about that.." i scratched the back of my head. "i don't wanna ruin the company's reputation with a possible scandal," i explained, kicking my feet ever so slightly from the couch i was sitting on.

"scandal? why would a scandal happen?" bam questioned. "i'm sure hyung loves you as much as you do," bam said, pointing to a tired jinyoung.

"i-i do! i love jinyoung, he's my everything..! but i'm afraid some fans will attack me and give me threat messages. besides, i don't wanna break your ahgase's precious hearts.." i shyly admitted.

"i'll be here for you." jinyoung suddenly said in a booming voice.

"we will too!" youngjae added, showing off his sweet smile.

"our ahgases.. they want nothing but the best for us! especially since we're growing up." yugyeom chuckled.

i wasn't so sure of what to say. i didn't wanna make a decision i wasn't sure of just yet, because it doesn't only impact my relationship with jinyoung but the other members too.

"let's give her some time," i guess jinyoung saw how uncomfortable i was feeling so he covered it up for me and eventually put the topic to an end.

"i'm sorry; i shouldn't have asked." jackson mumbled.

"jackson! it's completely alright!" i smiled.

jinyoung walked over to me and gave me a nudge, "you okay? did the boys ask a rather insensitive question?"

i shook my head.

"i just feel rushed to give a final decision, you know?" i frowned, snatching jinyoung's water bottle out of his hands to drink from it.

"i understand," he comforted as he pulled me in for a short embrace. "you know we'll do this together right? i'm never leaving your side." jinyoung assured, staring straight into my eyes.

A FEW MONTHS LATER :
before i knew it, their world tour was here.

first stop : japan of course!

we headed to the airport, the fans greeted GOT7 as always. i stood next to jinyoung, carrying my bag as i walked cautiously beside him.

"don't worry too much, okay?" he whispered. i cleared my throat and straightened my posture as i nodded. that could've been captured on camera. i thought.

•••

3 hours into the flight, i got bored so i took out my mobile phone and saw that jinyoung had been tagged on a post on instagram.

it was a photo of jinyoung and... me?! the caption wrote :

"Is the girl that's walking beside jinyoung his girlfriend? comment down your thoughts!"

COMMENTS :

user1 : i think it's their manager LOL
user 2 : hmm maybe not.. i mean if i lip read jinyoung's lips correctly, he said something along the lines of "don't worry too much."
user 3 (replying to user 2) : jjinja?! then it must be his girlfriend! yay~~~~ 💚
user 4 : are they allowed to date?
user 5 (replying to user 4) : yes. the ban has been gone since 2 years ago!!
user 6 : she looks so sweet and pretty! i support! 💚
user 7 : me too! jinyoung ah, fighting~~~!

my eyes widened at what i was reading. t-they don't seem mad about it.. could it be fine if we make it public then..?

jinyoung turned to look at me, still sleepy. he rested his head on my shoulder and luckily, jia was all the way in front along with the other staff members. min and i sat at the back.

"get some more rest, dumbo." i patted his head. "no.." he groaned. "your screen.. i saw a photo of us.." he mumbled, slightly pouting.

"an instagram post of suspicious as to who i am." i explained calmly. "a-and you're not freaking out?" jinyoung stuttered, still half asleep.

a soft chuckle was what i gave in return with a slight, "not really.."

"then let's make it public."
