Third Person POV

*Ring*

*Ring*

*Ring*

Taehyung fumbled through his sheets as he blindly searches for his phone which wouldn't stop ringing. It has already been over ten minutes that his phone was bombarded by a series of text messages and calls.

After endless attempts of ignoring his phone, Taehyung finally found it, "Yeoboseyo?" he tirelessly answered.

"Taehyung. Come to the company right at this instant. Sajangnim wants to see you." Taehyung heard his manager, Sejin ring from the other line. Taehyung couldn't help but immediately rise his upper body upon hearing 'Sajangnim' being mentioned.

"Wae??" Taehyung asks anxiously.

"You'll find out once you're here." the manager quickly ends the call which left Taehyung feeling uneasy hearing the serious tone of his voice.

Taehyung knew being called to see the CEO never meant good news. He tried to recall his past actions the past week thinking of ways he might've have messed up but despite efforts, he evoked none.

In a hurry, Taehyung didn't bother further investigating this matter as he speedily got ready, driving towards the company building.

☯︎☯︎☯︎

"Ahhhhhh" Taehyung heard as he promptly got off his car. Fans squealing upon seeing his appearance at the company building.

Paying no attention to his fans, he impatiently made his way inside the building. Entering the elevator, pressing the fourteenth floor leaving an imprint of his fingertips as his hands was becoming quite sweaty.

"Finally you're here." His manager quickly placing his hands over his shoulders as he leads the way towards Bang PD's office.

"Hyung what's the matter anyways? Why am I being called all of a sudden?" He asks, worry plastered on his face.

"Stop asking questions and let's just hurry."

Like a movie scene, Bang PD turned his chair around finally to face the anxious Taehyung who was awkwardly standing beside his manager.

"Sit." He pointed at the chair in front of his desk.

Taehyung bowed deeply before sitting politely facing his boss.

"Explain this." That was all that was said.

Taehyung raised his right brow in confusion before picking up the piece of paper article placed in front of him.

Slowly his pupils expand in diameter, eyes widened as he read the headline written in bold.

"As expected BTS's V shortly left the restaurant twenty-minutes after the model heiress Kim Jisoo to lower suspicions of their date." Taehyung mouths as he continues to read the article.

Taehyung was completely clueless. He recalls entering the restaurant shown in the photo but not once did he expect to be photographed plus having a dating scandal the next day.

"Sajangnim, if you're asking if I'm dating her, then no. I didn't even know she was also there. I met up with Seo-Joon and Woo-shik that evening, not her." Taehyung quickly clarifies.

"Do you know her?" Bang PD asks.

"Yes I know her, who wouldn't? Her face is practically in all magazines and commercial but I've never once spoken to her." Taehyung explains slowly feeling at ease since he knows he didn't do anything wrong.

"Oh well this is going to be tough then." Bang PD disappointingly let out.

"Huh??" Taehyung confused.

"I was hoping for y'all to be at least be acquaintance it'll make everything easier." Bang PD replied.

"Sajangnim what do you mean..."

"With your solo comeback coming up, and seeing the positive reactions with your dating scandal. I've decided it would be a smart move to confirm your dating news." He explained.

From the sudden news, Taehyung immediately stood up from his chair, "WHAT?!" he yelled.

A full second passed when he realized he just yelled at his boss, "I'm sorry Sajangnim I didn't mean to yell at you, I'm just shocked."

"This is good publicity Taehyung, it'll be a good addition to your image. Plus your fans are unexpectedly loving you guys together." Bang PD tries to explain his logic.

"Did their side agree?" Taehyung asks.

"Well we still have yet to contact them about this matter, I was hoping to talk to you first."

"What if I say no about this whole thing? I mean come on Sajangnim you're telling me to lie to my fans especially about my love life!" Taehyung tries to rationalize.

"Taehyung trust me, this is for the best."

Taehyung didn't know what possessed him but before he could think further he was compelled to say yes.

"I hope she's nice at least..."
