"Kim Taehyung! Kim Taehyung! Kim Taehyung!", Jennie was fed up with said boy.
"Call me baby.", Taehyung winked.
"Call me pissed.", Jennie scowled.
"Oh, hello Pissed. Nice to meet you. Lovely weather we're having, aye?", Taehyung smiled.
"Kim Taehyung.", Jennie growled.
"Jennie Kim.", Taehyung mimicked her.
"Aw, such a cute couple.", the sales attendant cooed.
"Oh, we're not a couple.", Jennie quickly denied.
"Oh really? That's too bad. You both look so cute together and plus there was a 30% discount on the Gucci couple outfits."
"Oh, did I say we were not a couple? It's just, sometimes he can get really annoying and frustrating but I love him all the same.", Jennie linked her arms with Taehyung, staring at his shockprised face with her gummy smile on full display.
Taehyung had to admit, she looked cute.
"Really?", the sales attendant asked.
"Yes. My girlfriend and I are so deeply in love we were planning to get married next month. You could even attend our wedding.", Taehyung played along, giving his boxy smile.
The sales attendant was rendered speechless as she stared at them. They looked like high schoolers.
"See what cuteness I have to deal with?", Jennie laughed nervously trying to ease the awkward atmosphere, pinching Taehyung's cheek a little too hard.
"Oh, you both are really cute. Follow me, I'll lead you to the couple's section.", the sales attendant laughed, taking the lead.
Jennie kicked Taehyung's foot, earning a whine from the latter.
The sales attendant turned back to see the two standing very close to each other, the boy with his arm wrapped tightly around the girl's, but smiling brightly.
What she didn't notice was how stiff they both looked.

"I can't believe you lied to the sales attendant that we were dating.", Taehyung laughed.
"I'd do anything for Gucci. And don't put it all on me, you were also in on it.", Jennie took a sip of her iced latte.
"But would you really do it?", Taehyung stopped walking, suddenly turning serious.
"What?", Jennie also stopped, turning to face her partner as his countenance abruptly changed.
"Would you really date me?", he asked her, his voice low sounding even deeper than usual, his eyes never leaving hers.
"Why-why are you asking me that?", Jennie stuttered nervously under the intensity of his gaze boring down on her. Literally, he was like, a head taller than her.
"No reason.", he suddenly smiled, his bright nature once again coming back, like nothing happened.
The duality of Kim Taehyung.
Jennie just stared dumbly at the boy in front of her, wondering how he could suddenly change his expressions just like that.
She was brought out of her trance when she saw him take a sip of her latte.
"Kim Taehyung!", Jennie screeched.
"You know what this means right? We indirectly kissed.", Taehyung smiled cheekily.
"Kim Taehyung!", Jennie growled and the two returned to their cat and dog selves.
