It's now the next morning and you're in the office, at your desk getting a few things done.

While sitting at your desk, you notice that coworkers around you are giving you weird looks.

Furrowing your eyebrows, you avoid eye contact and continue staying focused on the tasks that you're working on.

That is, until you see Jieun practically sprinting towards you. Her eyes are widened and she's covering her face slightly as she walks towards you. As you make eye contact with her, you raise your eyebrows.

"Y/N." She suddenly says in a quiet-toned voice. Biting onto your lower lip, you lean forward in your chair and stare up at her.

"Jieun... is everything okay?" you question. She quickly shakes her head.

"Something's going on with Yoongi." She states. You nod your head for a second before processing what she just said.

Yoongi?

She doesn't know SUGA as Yoongi. She knows him as SUGA.

Why did she just call him that?

You widen your eyes for a second, your stomach already doing somersaults as your mind goes to the worst case scenario.

"I'm sorry... who exactly is Yoongi?" you question.

"SUGA's real name." she states and you widen your eyes immediately.

"Wait, did you just call him Yoongi?" you question. She nods her head slowly.

"Yes, Yoongi. I didn't know his name until the, uh... news broke out." She states, causing you to tilt your head to the side.

"I'm not following. What news?" you question. She stares sympathetically down at you as you part your lips while staring at her.

"Y/N, aren't you on social media? Twitter... or X... whatever you want to call it?" she questions.

Your heart sinks to your ass as you hear that social media platform being said.

Gulping, you glance around at the people in the office. You make eye contact with someone and he shakes his head before looking away. After that, you look to the nearest woman sitting near her. She makes eye contact with you and raises her eyebrows.

You give her a small smile and she immediately snickers before letting out a soft laugh and looking away from you.

Jieun taps your shoulder gently and you look up at her.

"Can you come to the break room with me so I can catch you up with what's going on?" she questions. You immediately nod your head before getting up from your chair. Making sure to lock your laptop before following behind her, you avoid eye contact while following behind Jieun.

She's also avoiding eye contact as she walks. You bite onto your lower lip as she stops at the breakroom and looks around to make sure no one is there.

"Alright, tell me what's going on so I know why people are looking at me like I have a third eye on my forehead." You say desperately. She immediately shakes her head.

"Do you happen to follow him on social media?" she questions. You slowly nod your head and she covers her face.

"Do you know that he has two accounts?" she questions.

"He does?" you play dumb despite knowing damn well what she's talking about. She nods her head quickly.

"Yes.. and one of them is a..." she drifts off before looking over at the exit to make sure no one is on their way in. "NSFW account where he posts... moaning videos." She states.

Your heart that was already beating so quickly that it's probably seconds away from having a heart attack now drops further into your stomach. You immediately feel yourself starting to sweat slightly as you grow nervous as to what she's going to say next.

Your anxiety is through the roof and you can't believe what's going on.

"He has a what?" you question, pretending to be unaware of the situation.

"Yes..." she states while shaking her head. "And the whole office knows we were recording music with him and now because of him being a music producer and him posting those moaning videos..." she drifts off and reaches her hand up, placing the nail on her thumb into her mouth as she slightly nibbles on it out of nervousness.

"What?" you question, voice raising an octave as you grow more nervous.

"They think... we..." she says before removing her thumb from her mouth and using both hands to cover her face. "That we made moaning audios with him or something that he's been posting." She says while shaking her head.

"Well, I haven't been. You haven't either, right?" you question. She nods her head.

"I haven't either." She confirms before you both let out a relieving sigh. You then glance around the office before lowering your voice slightly.

"I mean... if we both didn't and this account got leaked..." you start before reaching a hand up to scratch the back of your neck. "Don't you think they know we didn't make any audios with him?" you question.

She shrugs her shoulders before taking a deep breath.

"You'd think so, right?" she questions before reaching a hand up to face palm herself. "But you know how conservative it is and you know how judgmental everyone is."

Fair point.

You then utter out a 'shit' before stomping your foot slightly.

"How exactly did this account get leaked?" you immediately question.

Your mind is now starting to plot ways to check on Yoongi.

Given that his name is a big one in the music industry, you immediately grow scared that everyone is going to loop him into scandals that he's not involved in. Especially the larger ones like the Burning Sun scandal. You know about this scandal and have talked to him about it before and he's cut all ties with anyone involved in it and even tried his best to bring awareness to it by donating money to sex trafficking victims and supporting the victims who released their stories.

However, considering his scandal is related to sex and as is that one, you're horrified at the thought of anyone thinking Yoongi, an incredibly respectful man, is involved in any way, shape, or form.

"Apparently, he's been using that account to also do phone sex calls with people." She states the obvious while you pretend to look clueless. "One of his clients, a celebrity actress that you probably know, Park Min-young, leaked his account." She states. Your hand instinctively goes to your chest as your breathing now grows uneven as you start having a slight panic attack.

"Oh my gosh." You immediately say, gasping for air. She nods her head before placing both hands on your shoulders.

"I know, I know. I'm scared too. I don't want anyone thinking I'm doing things like that... not that there's anything wrong with it but I'm just not that kind of person." She states. You nod your head before gulping as you nervously look around the office.

"I..." you start before quickly shaking your head. "What do we do in a situation like this? Do we lay low and let him take the heat for it? Do we make statements to save his reputation?" She immediately shrugs her shoulders.

"I don't know but what I do know is that I don't want my potential music career getting ruined by this." She states. You nod your head in agreement before sighing.

"I wonder..." you start thinking before thinking about your potential contacts.

Duh. How could you be so stupid?

You literally are best friends with Irene. Irene, who works in PR for a company.

"You wonder what?" she questions. You grab her shoulders and nod your head.

"I have an idea." You state. "My best friend, Irene, works in PR for a company. Maybe she could give us some guidance as to what to do with this." You explain.

"Oh thank goodness." She says while taking a deep breath. "Please let me know what she says when you talk to her. I woke up to this news this morning and some of these rude girls here have been telling me these remarks that I honestly can't tolerate much longer." She says, voice shaking slightly.

You frown softly as you feel bad that she's even involved in this.

"Do you think you'd be able to take the rest of the week off?" you question. "I can handle these bitches but I know you're a little more sensitive and hate when people don't like you." She nods her head and you nod yours.

"I should be able to put a request for time off in." she states. "Do you think you'd be able to see your friend by next week?" you nod your head.

"Oh, no doubt about it. She's probably going to reach out during lunch anyway because she knows I'm friends with him." You state before taking a deep breath. "I probably should check on him as well." She slowly nods her head.

"Yeah, you probably should especially because you like him." She states before pausing. "Er... if you still like him after finding out about all of this, that is." You merely nod your head.

"Yeah..." you say before drifting off, already knowing you couldn't give two fucks about it since you already knew about it. "I will update you, just take some time to relax."

You two nod before going your separate ways.

You rush back towards your desk and avoid eye contact with anyone else. You sit down at your desk and unlock your laptop to get back to work.

You're certain that Irene is going to reach out in the next hour or two about the situation.

"Y/N?" you hear a deep voice suddenly.

Shit.

Namjoon.

You look up at him and see that his face is expressionless, making it hard for you to tell whether this is good or bad.

"Yes?" you question.

"Are you free really quick to talk in my office?" he questions.

Fuck, you're being fired.

Wait, can a company fire you for something like that?

After all, you aren't the face of the company or anything so for them to be worried about company representation wouldn't make the most sense.

You slowly get up from your seat and watch as people around you start the whispering, gossiping, dirty looks, and smirks. Avoiding the attention by staring down at the floor as you walk, you make your way to his office with him walking next to you.

Once in the office, he lets you go in first and closes the door behind you. He then reaches to shut the blinds on the clear window so that no one can try to read lips or peek in.

You sit down at the chair that's across his desk from his monitors. He then makes his way to his desk and sits down, adjusting the collar of his dress shirt.

He then leans back in his seat and takes a deep breath.

"So..." he starts, causing you to press your lips together out of nervousness, not wanting to speak in the tiniest sliver of a chance that this is unrelated to Yoongi's account being leaked. "I'm assuming you've heard already." He states.

"Heard what... exactly?" you question. He takes a deep breath.

"Yoongi's situation." He states. "With his other account."

Well, there goes any hope you had.

"Oh. Yeah." You say before taking a deep breath.

"You're not in trouble, by the way." He states. "You're dating my friend outside of work. What you do on your own time and what he does in his own time are both unrelated to the company. I don't mind either way."

"So... why'd you call me in here if I'm not in trouble?" you question.

"I just wanted to offer my help." He explains. "Being as high up as I am, I've had multiple trainings and discussions as to what to do when things like that happen. I have a PR team and already offered it up to Yoongi."

"You talked to him already? Is he okay?" you question.

"He's perfectly fine. He's used to dealing with backlash on songs. Yeah, this is a whole new genre of backlash but I'm sure he'll manage. He's a tough guy." He states before shrugging his shoulders. "But, he probably needs you to comfort him if anything."

"That, I can do." You state before gulping. "I just... did you know about his account?" you question.

"I figured knowing Yoongi he'd be capable of something like that." He laughs softly before shaking his head. "Just wanted to let you know that my PR manager can handle this and I'll handle any shit talking in the office so you don't have to deal with it. I'll also talk to Jieun's boss and have him give her the same talk and offer the same services."

You stare over at Namjoon and merely smile at him.

"You're such a good person." You say, causing him to smile his usual dimpled smile.

"Thank you." He says before speaking once more. "Anyways, Yoongi's probably going to be hiding out in Jin's house."

"Jin?" you question.

"I'll drive you there after work so you can go check on him." He states. "I'll have my driver pick you up a few blocks away from here so no one gives you shit for it or anything." You nod your head before biting onto your lower lip.

"Okay, that sounds good." You state before sighing softly.

Right when you start putting together a plan as to how you can fix the situation, the universe all of a sudden is fixing it on its own, all thanks to Yoongi.

At this point, you really have to agree that it is fate that you ended up with him. Things just get easier and easier the more you're with him. This gives you a lot of comfort as you think about it.
