The video above is basically what it sounded like when Jade was playing stay by BLACKPINK, plus her singing, just for you guys to get a visual.

I was originally planning to publish both part 1 and 2 of chapter 11 but these past couple of days I've been put to work and right now I am in immense pain...so I just decided to publish part one and when I am feeling better get back to working on part 2

So enjoy~

Third Person

It's been exactly a month from the sleepover and a month plus a few days since Taehyung has been hanging out and getting to know the other boys more.

As Jade predicted, all seven of them had gotten along with each other perfectly. Taehyung has never felt this comfortable when being with a group of people before. The bond between Taehyung and the other boys have already became so strong that it feels like they have known each other for forever.

Right now Taehyung is over at Jade's house, just hanging out and playing music together since that's what they both love to do. But Jade was in for a little surprise~, set up by none other than the boys. But what the six of them (everyone besides Taehyung) don't know is that they'll be in for a surprise as well~

Taehyung's Pov

Me and Jade are hanging out outside the balcony (much to Jade's concern), singing songs together. Jade has out her acoustic guitar and laptop so she can play along to songs we choose to sing together from YouTube. Even though Jade doesn't agree with me, I love her singing voice. It fits her so well and she can match the tones and pitches of any singers voice, perfectly harmonizing with them. The only thing she can't do that well is high notes, also she is one hell of a rapper even though she gets embarrassed everytime I compliment her on it. She doesn't really like to sing or rap in front of me or anybody really but thanks to my determination and skill of begging and persuasion, I convinced her to sing and play for me. I know I'm just that good~

"Alright Taehyung, anymore suggestions?" Jade asked, her hand on the built in mouse in her laptop, moving towards the search engine. Ready to type in a new song.

"Actually, I have a request~" I take the laptop from her and type in Stay by BLACKPINK. Jade sees me do this and chuckles a little.

"I had a feeling you would pick this song" Jade looks back down at her guitar with a small smile on her face, softly strumming the strings of her guitar.

"Of course~, plus I really love it when you start rapping Lisa's and Jennie's part." I nudge Jade playfully, my compliment making her blush a little.

"Shut up" she pushes me out of embarrassment, causing me to laugh a little.

She gets into a more comfortable position, her guitar already in her lap. She tunes her guitar real quick before turning to me again.

"You ready?" I shake my head at her.

"No, I want you to sing for me" I poke her in the shoulder, motioning the 'you' part in my sentence.

"Come on Tae..." She frowns a little at my request.

"PPLLLLLEEEAAASSSSEEEEEE~" I pull off my biggest puppy dog eyes and cutest pout I could ever muster. She tries to stay serious and unfazed by my attempt but gives in anyway.

"UGH FINE! Just this once!" Jade glares at me then looks back down at her guitar again. I throw my hands into the air and fall backwards onto the outside bed.

"YES!!!" I spring back up and sit cross legged on the bed again, facing her, more than ready to listen. She was about to play but then was interrupted by my notifications going off.

I pull out my phone and saw that the guys texted me from our secret group chat that Jade does not know about. I unlock my phone to see what they messaged me about.

JustinSeagull(JK): YO TAEHYUNG!! ANSWER THE PPPHHOOOONNEEEE~!!

ChristianChimChim: WE GOT A PPPLLLLAAANNNNNN~ ANSWER THE PPPHHHOOOONNNNEEEE~!!!

EommaJin: Guys stop using all caps Tae might get the wrong idea.

         Me: I'm already at Jade's house

Sunshinehobi: of course you are 🙄😒

JustinSeagull (JK): why?!? And without us??!! 😤

             Me: We're just hanging out 😶

RM: actually this is perfect, we could get in without Jade knowing and surprise her in her room or something.

RM: ok, Tae when we arrive, make up an excuse and come meet us at the door so you can let us in. We'll put the ice cream and other treats in the kitchen and then go surprise her.

                          Me: What other treats?

JustinSeagull(JK): THERES GONNA BE MORE TREATS??!!

ChristianChimChim: YYYAAAYYYY!!

EommaJin: not for you two hoes if you don't calm tf down. I'm baking more treats for Jade since she always takes care of us.

       Me: Awww~ how nice of you Jin~

EommaJin: I know I'm the best~😘

         Me: bye guys see you soon~👋❤️

RM: I'll text you when we get here

                                       Me: ok 👌 bye~😬

I put my phone down and look up at Jade, who was softly strumming and humming a rhythm that I bet she came up with just now. She looks up at me when she realizes I am done texting.

"Who was that?" She looks back down and continues to play the new tune she created.

"It was the guys, they keep spamming me with memes again" I told her a very believable lie, causing her to laugh a little. She keeps strumming to herself, when I suddenly got curious about something.

"Hey Jade"

"Yeah?"

"Does the guys know about your musical talent yet?" She stops strumming her guitar at my question and sighs.

"No..."

"How come?" Her face saddens at my question, she still hasn't looked at me since I put down my phone. She sighs before answering.

"I'm afraid...I shouldn't be...but I am...when I was in elementary and middle school Tae, people would bully me because of my music, saying it was horrible and I should stop playing all together. But I couldn't quit. I had no where else to practice besides school, so whenever I had free time I would practice. My music teachers were proud, but everyone else just shut me out...at first it was minor, just hurtful words I received anyway possible, from people saying it to my face to notes people would throw at me. But then it just got worse and worse... until our hyungs stopped it all...I never told them the reason why I was bullied, because I was afraid they turn on me if they knew...and I still am...I'm thankful to Jungkook cause when I told him, the reaction was good, saying why didn't I tell him sooner, we could have been playing music together all this time...that should have got me thinking 'hey, maybe it's time to tell them'.....but I'm still just so afraid...." Her grip on her guitar tightens. I grab her guitar and gently put it down on her guitar standee, pulling her into a hug afterwards. Rubbing circles on her back to comfort her.

"I bet they were just jealous...they didn't like the fact that you were so much better than them, so they tortured you for it...but I'm so glad you pushed through...you still practiced even though you were dehumanized for it. Your love and passion was bigger than the hate you received and I'm so proud that you didn't give in to them, you didn't give them what they wanted. Because that wasn't what you wanted...I really respect that Jade, I am so proud..." I hugged her tighter. Trying to give her the love she deserves. I feel her hug me back, she pulls away and smiles weakly at me.

"Thank you...." I nodded and hugged her again, to which she returns it. I suddenly had an idea pop into my head...

She'll probably hate me for this...but this is for her own good.

I let go of the hug and stand up from the bed.

"I need to use the bathroom real quick" she nods and watches me run inside the house. Once inside I walk to the front door and unlock it, I then reach for my phone that's inside my back pocket, unlock it and pull up to the group chat.

                   Me: hey guys, I unlocked the door so when you guys come, you can just let yourself in, quickly and quietly put the treats and ice cream in the freezer and come to the balcony. That's where me and Jade have been hanging out. REMEMBER: once you enter the house you have to be quick and SUPER quiet about it!!

ChristianChimChim: ok?... What's with this set of instructions??

               Me: don't question it and trust me on this one, if you don't do exactly as I say you won't get to experience something beautiful.

JustinSeagull(JK): what do you mean by that Tae??

               Me: DONT ASK QUESTIONS!! JUST TRUST ME!!!

SunshineHobi: Ok ok calm down! We're already almost there so

       Me: great! I gtg now, REMEMBER WHAT I SAID!!

ChristianChimChim: yes yes we read you

JustinSeagull(JK): loud and clear

                 Me: good! See you soon bye!

SunshineHobi: Bye☀️

ChristianChimChim: bye~😊

JustinSeagull(JK): bye 👋

I put my phone away and run back to the balcony, where I see Jade strumming her guitar again. A soft look on her face as she hums along to the melody. I quickly go back to sit in my spot on the outside bed. Quickly shifting myself to face her again, getting comfortable and sitting cross legged on the bed. I look up at her and noticed she was staring at me with a small smile on her face. I smile back and pat the spot directly in front of me.

"Come sit and face me" she raises an eyebrow at me.

"Why?" I pout at her.

"Because I like to watch your fingers move when your playing and I can't see your hands when your not facing me and sitting on the edge" I pat the spot in front of me again.

"But I cant play that well when I'm sitting cross legged on the bed like you are" I pout at her again.

"But you've played like that before, come one please~" she sighs

"Fine" she moves to sit cross legged in front of me, moving her guitar around so she can play comfortably. I grab her laptop, ready to play Stay by BLACKPINK.

"You ready?" She looks at the laptop then back at me, she sighs, probably remembering that she had to sing alone for this song.

"As ready as I'll ever be" she flashes me a small smile and looks back down at her guitar, ready to start playing.

I click play on the video and the music starts.

Third Person

As Jade's singing started to echo throughout the house in sync with the music playing. A car from outside the house parks into the driveway. The 6 boys one by one, get out of the car and make their way to the front door of Jade's house, some with treats in their hands.

Namjoon is the first one to reach the front door, slowly and quietly opening the door. He looks around and when he sees the coast is clear, he motions the others to follow him inside. They tip toe their way into the kitchen. Jungkook, Jimin, and Hoseok put the treats down onto the kitchen counter while Jin quietly opens the freezer and puts the ice cream inside.

The boys then make their way out the kitchen, through the dinning room and towards the balcony. That's when they all noticed the music getting louder and louder. They figured Jade and Taehyung were playing music outside and didn't think much of it, but as they got closer and closer, they recognized the song that was playing was stay by BLACKPINK but it sounded different... 'maybe it's a song cover?' Namjoon thought. They all still didn't think too much about it, until Namjoon peeked his head outside the balcony, the sight making his eyes go wide and mouth hung open in complete shock.

"Guji neoyeoyaman haneun iyuneun mutjima~
Geujeo nae gyeote stay with me~

It goes a little something like~"

The boys pulled Namjoon back when seeing his reaction, thinking he got caught or something. Jin turns Namjoon towards him and mouths the words 'did she see you???'. Namjoon blinks a few times before shaking his head. Jin then tilts his head in confusion, the other boys being confused as well. Jin mouths again 'then what happened??' Namjoon points to outside mouthing a 'you won't believe this! Follow me'. Namjoon turns around and tip toes his way onto the balcony, the boys following close behind. Namjoon then points to in front of him, the five boys turn wide eyed at the sight Namjoon was pointing to. Some covering their mouths in shock while others just stood there, shook beyond belief.

"Jigeum dangjang manheungeol baraneun ge anya~
Geujeo nae gyeote stay with me~

Sasireun nan deo baraneun ge eobseo ije.
Simjangeun ttwigin haneun geonji mugamgakhae geurae.
Saramdeulgwaui eokjiseureon hanmadibodan.
Neowaui eosaekhan chimmugi charari joha.

So stay~ geuge eodiga dwaetgeon mariya.
Gakkeum eodumi ol ttaemyeon I'll be your fire.
Geojit gateun sesang sok yuilhan truth it's you.

This is a letter, from me to you~."

All six boys were still frozen, still shook beyond belief at Jade, playing guitar and singing so perfectly along with the original. It was such a shock to them that they didn't know she had such talent!! And it took them this long to figure it out?! To be quite honest, the boys were a little hurt that she hid this from them...the boys noticed Taehyung looking at them. He looked at Jade to make sure she wasn't looking before winking in their direction and putting a finger over his lips, signaling them to stay quiet. Jade hasn't noticed their presence yet since her back was turned to them and she was just too caught up in the song to notice anything really. One of the many reasons why she loves to play music so much.

"Ne hyanggineun dalkomhan felony~, neomu mipjiman saranghae~

Eh eh eh eh~!

Eoduun bami nal gadugi jeone nae gyeoteul tteonajima~
Ajik nal saranghani na mamgwa gatdamyeon~, oneureun tteonajima~

Guji neoyeoyaman haneun iyuneun mutjima~
Geujeo nae gyeote stay with me~
It goes a little something like~"

At this point in the song, Taehyung continued to clap along to the beat while the six boys behind Jade bopped their heads to the music, Jade still being lost in her own little world as she sung her heart out. Her fingers dancing along with the strings of her guitar to match the music that was playing from her laptop.

"Jigeum dangjang manheungeol baraneun ge anya~
Geujeo nae gyeote stay with me~

It goes a little something like~

Lalalalalala Lalalalalala Lalalalalala~
Lalalalalala Lalalalalala Lalalalalala~

Jigeum dangjang manheungeol baraneun ge anya~

Geujeo nae gyeote stay with me~"

The song ended and Jade had a big smile on her face from the fun she had when singing that song. Taehyung started to clap first, his big box smile wide on his face, showing he really enjoyed Jade's performance. The six boys from behind her started to clap as well, cheering and praising her for the wonderful performance they got to experience.

Her eyes widened at the cheers and praises coming from behind her, she knew those voices all too well, so when she whipped her head around to see what was behind her...much to her horror, her suspicions were correct, and it was the other boys that were standing right behind her...fear and worry fulled her head and facial expressions. She turned to look at Taehyung, since she assumed Taehyung was the one who invited the boys over. Her suspicions were confirmed once again by the guilty look on Taehyung's face when they made eye contact with each other. She slowly turned back to the boys, gulping down her nerves before asking.

"...h-how long were you guys standing there?..."

"Oh, we came just in time to hear you start rapping Lisa's and Jennie's part. You were amazing really-" Jin cut Jimin off with a hard nudge to the arm, causing Jimin to hold his arm in pain afterwards. The boys noticed Jade's behavior once she found out they were here...and it wasn't a happy one like usual....

"Jade...is everything ok? are you mad?" Jade didn't answer them and just stayed slient...she was trying to collect her thoughts... trying to stay calm... memories of what they used to do to her fulled her head and she was trying so hard not to break down in front of them...she tried to just focus on her breathing and nothing else...it was helping until....

"...Jade?.." Hoseok came up to her, gently touching her shoulder. She quickly flinched away and covered herself up in defense, shutting her eyes closed in fear.

"DONT HURT ME PLEASE!!" She shouted, causing the boys to jump back in surprise, especially Hoseok...

Taehyung was starting to regret this decision...he didn't know Jade would act like this...he thought this was for her own good but he was wrong...he moved to go and comfort Jade, reaching his hand out. But once he saw her flinch away from him, he pulled back immediately, feeling hurt that she flinched away like that.

Seokjin has seen this before and connected the dots in his head pretty quickly, same with Namjoon, but yoongi and Hoseok were lagging a little bit. Seokjin moved through the boys and made his way to Jade, kneeling down beside the bed to her level. By the time Jin got to Jade, she stayed balled up in defense on reflex...

Jin patted her back gently, to show her he wasn't going to hurt her. At first she flinched and tried to move away but the more he continue to pat her back the more she was starting to relax, not completely but enough to stop her from moving away. Jin took this opportunity to speak.

"We aren't going to hurt you Jade...we would never....was this the reason why people hurt you so much? Just because your musically talented??" She slowly nodded her head, breaking out of her ball to quickly grab a pillow and squeeze the life out of it.

"Oh Jade..." Jin rubbed her back, even though he wanted to hug her so he can comfort her properly, he gave her the space she needed right now.

"ME AND JIMIN WENT TO THE SAME FUCKING MIDDLE SCHOOL AS YOU HOW COULD WE NOT SEE THE SHIT THAT WAD HAPPENING TO YOU OH MY FUCKING GOD I FEEL LIKE SUCH A DUMDASS!!" Jungkook raged, crouching down and ruffling his hair out of frustration. Jimin on the other hand looked like he was ready to murder some people, mentally making a list of all the people he went to middle school with to....pay a visit.

Namjoon went to stand next to Jin, watching him comfort Jade. He wished he could do the same but physically comforting someone wasn't his specialty...only when it came to a specific person...

Yoongi was mumbling under his breath, saying things like 'i should have killed them a long time ago' and 'if I see them again, I'll show no fucking mercy'.

Hoseok was still in shock at Jade flinching away like that, it hurt to see her like this...and he remembers all those times, seeing her with hidden bruises and a busted up lip... regretting not finding out sooner so he could prevent any of that from happening. He walked over and basically just layed on top of Jade, who was still in a ball, plus a pillow she was squeezing the life out of.

Hoseok sneaked his arms under Jade so he can hug and comfort the ball she turned into, this apparently snapped Jade back to reality and she quickly tried to get away but Hoseok would not budge.

"It's ok guys I'm fine now sorry about my little outburst Hoseok you can let go now, I'll just go to my room for some alone time so Hoseok if you don't mind can you just-" Hoseok stopped her nervous rambling when she saw him slowly tower over her, hands on either side of her head. Looking down at her with mixed emotions of sadness and regret, but also a hint of determination somewhere in the mix....she blinked a million times, kinda a way of checking to see if hoseok being on top of her like this was real or if she was just hallucinating. Hoseok slowly leaned down to her ear and whispered....

"I'm sorry....for not stopping them sooner back then...I'll promise I'll protect you always....and never let something like this happen..ever again..." Jade could not wrap her head around what Hoseok said....just the way he said it, with his deep voice in a whisper like that, made her fall limp under him, her faced burning red. Hoseok noticed this and raised an eyebrow at her.

"Jade?" No answer, he grabbed her by the shoulders/top of her arms, lifting her up with ease, he shook her a little but got no reaction...

"Jade??" He turned around to the boys that were behind him, looking at Jin first before questioning.

"Do you think I broke her??" Jin panicked and smacked the back of Hoseok's head.

"YOU FRICKING IDIOT WHAT DID YOU DO??!!"

"I JUST WHISPERED IN HER EAR AND THEN SHE JUST BECOME A RAGDOLL I DON'T KNOW WHAT I DID TO CAUSE THAT!!!"

"WHAT THE HELL DID YOU WHISPER??!! A SPELL TO MAKE HER GO LIMP!" Jin questioned sarcastically but it looked like Hoseok took it seriously, shaking his head quickly. Jin just gave him a 'are you that fucking dumb' and just moved him aside to see what was up with Jade.

"JADE? ARE YOU ALRIGHT??? ANSWER ME!!" He yelled and shook her firmly but gently. Didn't get a response either.

Everyone else just facepalmed to themselves and sighed at the stupidity they are witnessing before them. It was clear to them Jade was flustered at what Hoseok said to her, they didn't know what he said but it flustered her so much she almost fainted. Yoongi had enough of their stupidity so he decided to do something about it.

"Move you fucking morons" Yoongi pushed past them to save Jade, he crouched down and pulled her up by the arms so she can sit up properly, since Hoseok and Jin just left her there to flop back onto the bed. He let go of one of her arms and gently slapped her cheek to help bring her back to reality.

"Come back to reality" he said while repeatedly slapping her face gently. After a few slaps she snapped back to normal.

"Thank you yoongi" Jade slapped both of Yoongi's cheeks softly to thank him. He nodded and stood up, walking back to his spot. She took a deep breath before apologizing for her behavior and for making them worry about her so much, and explaining to them why she reacted in such a way.

*5 minutes later*

"Why are you guys here anyway?"

"We wanted to surprise you~, after finding out Taehyung was at your house we asked him to let us in so we could surprise you from inside the house~" Namjoon explained, showing off his dimple smile. Jade turned to Taehyung, who was sulking the whole entire time because he thought he messed up...

Jade crawled over to him and patted his head. "You upset?" He nodded at her. "Why?"

"Because...I thought you were mad...and I feel bad for letting them in after you told me everything....I'm sorry..." Taehyung pouted, on the verge of tears thinking he messed up. Jade saw this and quickly pulled him into a hug.

"Don't worry...I'm not mad, I was just scared of what their reactions would be that's all...I want to thank you actually...now I don't have to hide it anymore...thank you Taehyung" The boys gathered around then, watching them hug. Jungkook and Hoseok were getting all bitter again, so they joined in on the hug.

Soon the rest of the boys joined in and now Taehyung was in the middle of a group hug. He never thought this would happen to him...EVER. And he was so greatful to have such amazing friends...who actually cared about him. He wishes this would last forever....hopefully when they come to find out they won't leave him, like everyone else who did.

"But Taehyung...you exposed my musical 'talents' " Jade did the air quotes, earning a punch to the shoulder by Taehyung because she didn't believe her talent was any good.

"But now it's your turn~" Jade smirked evilly, making Tae gulp out of nervousness knowing exactly what she meant...

The other boys seemed to catch on and got a little excited, cheering in happiness to see what talent Taehyung possessed.

But Taehyung was drowning in his nerves, staring to sweat. Begging Jade with his eyes not to force him to do this, but she shook her head at his slient plead.

"You made them witness what I was afraid to show them without letting me know....and now it's your turn~"

Oh no....

To be continued.....

••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
Sorry that it took so long to write this chapter, I'm making this an unnecessary 2 parter because I have WAY more to write and didn't want this chapter to be crazy long.

Also i realized how much of a bitch I turned Jade into 😂😂, not in a mean way but like in a weak way. She is definitely not like that guys you'll see in future chapters. Also, next two chapters after the two parter I'm showing more of the vkook and a little namjin in the mix~

Until next time~
