"You should clean the living hall, Taehyung." Jimin pushes the boxes aside from his way to get through and settle down on one of the sofas.

Busy eating ramen Taehyung hums and lifts the remote to watch the next vlog. He smiles as soon as Skye's face comes into view.

Jimin sits unbelievably watching Taehyung almost go crazy at this point.

"You want me to dial the mental hospital, Tae? I got the number ready." Jimin picks at his phone and Taehyung grunts, "C'mon Jimin take it easy. I'm just on my break."

Jimin puts his phone down, tucking his tongue under his cheek being pissed, "You're shitting me." He leans forward at giggling Taehyung who's watching the vlog, "This is going too far, what if they leak your number? What if what you're doing can break us all down?" Jimin slaps his palms on the table taking Taehyung's attention. "Liking is one thing and giving out numbers is another."

Rolling his eyes, Taehyung pauses the video, places his chopsticks on the bowl and licks his lips. "Don't you think they must've done something when we were at the hotel itself?" He sits up straight as Jimin frowns, "I'm not drowning anyone, I genuinely like-"

"You are obsessed Taehyung." Jimin sternly spits the words out as Taehyung shuts his eyes and agrees, "Okay, fine." He lazily blinks at Jimin, "I am obsessed with her and I want to know her better. Do I not get a right to like a person? Should I wait until I turn forty or something? I don't think so, I should literally have children by then."

Jimin throws his hands in the air, "You are not getting me if they are rules for armys, so there are for us." Looking in Taehyung's eyes he seriously exclaims, "We are not supposed to fall for our fans."

Taehyung opens his mouth to debate but stops and sighs shutting up. "You won't get it, you never fell for someone." He gets up from his seat and picks up on his unfinished ramen taking it over to the kitchen not wanting to talk about this topic any more.

"You know I'm saying this for your good." Jimin gets up and follows him to the kitchen. "Except for us, nobody knows you gave out your number to her. It will be better to change your number. If she sends your ID out it will cause disas-"

"Jimin. Stop." Taehyung's voice turns low, his funny aura not staying anymore. "I don't wanna talk about this anymore. I'll handle it in my way, so don't talk about this. Please."

Pouting, Jimin nods, "Fine, first finish that." He points at the ramen and Taehyung shakes his head, "lost appetite."

"Uh-huh?" He takes the bowl from his hands, "Don't mind me eating it all" as he tries getting away with it, as Taehyung gasps and follows him, "Okay no. I want it"

Teasing him, Jimin starts to already eat it and Taehyung laughs trying to take the bowl from him and failing miserably as Jimin manages to eat it all at once, slurping the noodles in one go.

He stands bewildered as Jimin giggles with the stuffed noodles in his mouth.

"You owe me this." Taehyung flops down the sofa, shutting down the television and lying on his back.

Flopping down next to him Jimin faces him and squeezes his cheeks, trying to make it up, "Alright, let's have seafood after completing our schedule for tomorrow."

Meeting Jimin's eyes Taehyung stares at him, "What schedule do we have tomorrow?"

"Doing Skye" Jimin deadpans and a big smile appears on Taehyung's face, "I'd love that."

Hearing his response Jimin pulls out a stuffed pillow from under him to hit him, "YOU DUMB-" He hits him, "WE GOT TO FILM A COMMERCIAL, HOW COULD-" Taehyung laughs, shielding himself, "-YOU FORGET!"

"Fall for someone." Taehyung throws away the pillow Jimin was hitting him with and smiles at him, "You'll get your answer then."

"THE HELL I WILL."

"You don't wanna text him?" You whisper in Skye's ears as she hides her face in her palms, shaking her head, "Uhm"

"Okay..."

She lifts her head and sees you with her doe eyes, "What do I do?" She asks nervously and you sit speechless, "I'm not able to comprehend this either."

"Shall we tell the girls?" She requests and you perk your lips out, "Yeah there's no problem with that but do you think Taehyung will-" You feel a shiver in your spine, "Taking his name itself feels like he's a foreign subject, how did we even come to this?" You blurt with wide eyes. "We are talking about THE KIM TAEHYUNG." You speak dreamily, "Who got millions of girls fangirling over him, who is the god of Gucci, who's the sexiest onstage, whose voice can wake a dead from its grave and who's a literal icon..." you can't seem to find words further, "wow... he fell for you."

Looking at the floor Skye zones out, "I don't know what to make of this." She sighs, resting her back on the sofa and looking up at the roof, "I really have no idea what to do. He trusted me with his number. Isn't he scared of me leaking it out?" She meets your eyes, "Don't you think so?"

"I'm sure he already thought about that before giving you his number." Picking out your rubberband from your wrist you tie it on your hair, "It must be a spam sim or something?"

She listens quietly.

"Why?" You question, "You wanna try texting or calling?"

Instantly flickering her eyes at you, Skye gives you a downward nervous smile.

Your lips part, "So you're serious?"

Lowering her gaze, she twists her lips. "I have no idea..." you rest your palm on her shoulders taking her attention. "Look Skye, you can like him like that. No one's gonna judge you." You give her the assurance and she palms her face and shakes her head.

"It's more like I don't want to keep him waiting. It feels too uncomfortable to like him that way." She takes a tired breath. "Like I wanna do it for his sake. Like I can't believe he even likes me."

"You wanna try calling him?" You ask, "I can give you the privacy you need." She bites her lips. Think about it. "Alright, I'll do it."

Nodding at her decision you go with it. "I'll be right outside if you need me. Also, keep it low the girls are sleeping."

Skye smiles and picks up her phone. Dials his number. Waits. Looks at herself in the mirror. She's bare-faced. A casual top on shorts but of course she isn't showing all of her to him.

Doesn't make it too obvious or desperate. Lays on the sofa and adjusts a few strands of her hair. Nudges her mascara a little to look sleepy. Wiping a bit of her lipstick she smudges the remaining over on her cheeks for the natural pink glow.

God this was awkward but at least she should make sure she was presentable before THE TAEHYUNG.

Preparing herself, once she takes a look at herself in a camera, satisfied she clicks on the call button and it starts to ring.

Her heart ringing at the same time.

Five seconds passed and she started regretting calling him. What if he was just sleeping?

Shit.

This was the wrong time.

As she was about the cut, the call was accepted. A big thud happening in her heart as Taehyung appears on the screen. No way, no fucking way.

He was there.

He welcomes her with a sweet sleepy smile, while drying his hair with a towel, "Hey," he mumbles in his deep voice. The lights of his room dim, the headboard of his bed peeping from behind. A white cotton shirt on him. His sleeves folded up till his elbows. Also, a damn few of his buttons were undone.

The call was lifted when he was ready to go to sleep.

"You're up this late?" She can't help but let her thoughts take the lead. Okay, but why did it sound like she's literally his girlfriend? It was awkward, wasn't it? Oh no.

He just smiles more, "Just came back from the shower."

Oh.

"I didn't think you'd call..." he brushes his hair, looking at her with more smiles. Damn, why couldn't this man just stop smiling? He was making it so hard for her to not blush at him.

Poker face it was. She had to maintain it so as not to make her heart obvious. The service she was receiving right now... the other girls would kill to have.

"Yeah," she replied to his statement, pinning her hair strands behind her ear while watching Taehyung noticing her every move with his keen interested eyes.

"I didn't think you'd pick up," she presses her lips together and Taehyung's eyes fall there. His eyes flicker back to her eyes, "I was waiting for your call, instead." He confesses.

The damn butterflies in her stomach. This was not real. Someone needs to wake her up from the dream.

She responds with a slow nod which makes Taehyung lift his phone. Skye watches Taehyung lie down on his bed, adjusting the pillow beneath his head and raising the phone to his face after making himself comfortable.

"You're going to sleep?" He asks casually as if they have known each other for ages. Reaching for her necklace she fiddles with it, "Not yet." She replies.

Taehyung hums, resting his other arm under his head and looking at her, "What are you wearing?" His eyes point at the black camisole top. "Is it a lingerie?"

Skye's eyes widened at his assumption. She panics. "WHAT NO- THIS IS..." She places the phone on the table and makes him look at her whole top. "I'm just wearing a top with..." she notices the lace design on the neck of the shirt, "... with lace." It was very unintentional.

Taehyung huffs out a sniffle, "Aight, you didn't have to show it all to me. Although yes I like it." He winks and Skye's cheeks turn red. Immediately reaching for her phone she brings it near to her face.

"You don't have to say that aloud." She mutters and his grin widens, "I like this view more than the previous one."

Obviously her lips are closer to the camera.

She flinches and moves it away immediately. "I-I'll talk later." It was becoming unbearable at this point. How was he flirting so openly with her God?

Running fingers through his hair Taehyung chuckles, "Alright, I'll save your number." He shifts to the other side resting his phone on the pillow and folding his arms, solemnly focusing on her flustered face. "Also, I'm sorry if I didn't tell you this but..."

Skye's eyes stare at his lips, reading the next words coming out.

"-You look really pretty tonight, I'm glad you called, if not I wouldn't have anything to dream of tonight." He bites down on his smile and Skye dies.

Basically, that's a way of saying that he's going to think a lot about her before sleep.

Fixing her hair, she shakes her head not being able to accept the reality of the situation, "I think you're planning to kill me." She mumbles without thinking about anything, "I'm going to cut the call before that."

"Yeah?" He asks amused.

"I'm cutting the call Taehy-"

"I like my name on your lips you know-"

She curses in her mouth, "Good night,"

"Good night, Rei." He smiles with his ears as Skye instantly ends it. Throwing her phone on the bed and stuffing her face against the pillow.

What the heck just happened?

+++

"I need some retouching," Taehyung calls the makeup artist, loosening his tie and breathing properly.

As the lady approaches, he watches her removing her purse and brushes to clean him up while noticing Jungkook approaching him.

"What's up?" Jungkook stands in front of him with his hands in his pockets  admiring him, "You look really confident and happy today." He smiles at him, "Also very handsome."

Taehyung bites his smile, "Stop making me blush, people might think we're dating." Hearing Taehyung's words Jungkook laughs out, "Who cares."

"The media." And Jungkook shuts his lips. Yeah, that was concerning.

The lady gets done with his touches and steps back. Jungkook replaces himself with her and ties the tie for Taehyung, "Honestly, Hyung..." Jungkook tries to initiate a conversation, "You're not dating anyone right?"

Taehyung stiffs out. He blinks and stares at Jungkook, "Where is this coming from?"

"Your damn face." Jungkook replies piercing his gaze at him, "You've come early for the shoot, brought coffee for the entire staff, made every shot perfect, and looked ten times more handsome than any day you would." Jungkook pinpoints every noticeable detail of his, "You look like someone in love."

Amazed, Taehyung smiles at him, "Do I?"

"Who is she?" Jungkook directly asks and Taehyung doesn't respond to his question, instead, he says, "We'll talk about it later."

Jungkook raises his brows, "So there's someone."

To his response, Taehyung puts his finger on his lips, "Later." And Jungkook grins, "Got it."

"OKAY LETS WRAP IT UP WITH THE LAST SHOT!" The director announces to the speaker. Taehyung walks to his position alongside Jimin whereas Jungkook stands beside Yoongi.

"The meal after this is on you, don't forget." Taehyung says to Jimin as he nods, "Seafood, didn't forget."

"Good." He says and the camera rolls.

The lighting brightens as the camera scoots towards Taehyung's face his fingers slipping on the advertised car and slowly turning to Jimin leaning against the window with a sensual smile.

The director appreciates his acting right at the moment as the camera slides into the car with Jin holding the steering wheel and Namjoon sitting in the backseat with his intimidating gaze.

Darkness takes over the scene and lightning lits up the moment Jungkook part comes. Staring in the soul of the camera he flips his bangs from his forehead before the position changes to Yoongi sitting next to the wheels giving off a very sexy vibe.

"CUT!"

Everyone breathes and everyone claps, "GREAT WORK EVERYONE! PACK UP!"

"Doesn't that butt burn with all that sitting?" Jungkook gives a hand to Yoongi getting up, "Ask Hobi who's hanging off the roof of the car."

He shakes his head with laughter as Yoongi dusts his fingers, "How many car commercials do we have this year?"

"Depends on the sales."

"And what do we have next?"

"I'm going with Taehyung to eat, you wanna come?" Jimin unbuttons his shirt. "It's on you?" Jungkook asks and Jimin removes the coat, "Yeah."

"What's on the menu?" Yoongi starts walking along with everyone. "Seafood." Hobi, Namjoon, Jin, and Taehyung joins the conversation walking together.

"I'd rather eat Ramen and drink with you at your home." Jungkook brushes his hair, giving his words. "We're talking about the exquisite Kim Taehyung, he's not settling over ramen when I'm offering a meal to him."

Taehyung agrees immediately, "Totally right."

Namjoon yawns, "You guys go, I've got some work to finish."

"I'm sleeping, it's been a tiring day." Hobi opens their dressing room, "Got to have some sleep before practice."

Jin shifts towards Hobi folding his sleeves up, "You're practicing at night?"

"Apparently, why? You wanna tag along?" Hobi picks up a water bottle and settles down before chugging on it. "Great idea, I'll join you."

Yoongi looks in the mirror, fixing his hair breaking the conversation between Hobi and Jin, "Yeah but we got a schedule tomorrow as well," he glances back at the boys, "We have to get done with the photoshoot and later get done with our personal projects till..."

"Till next week, because we're leaving." Jimin removes his shirt and throws an oversized sweater on himself, "Where was the place again we're filming the 'In The Soop' in?" He removes his pants and puts on baggy jeans on sneakers while others get busy changing their clothes.

Jungkook ties his shoelaces answering Jimin, "They haven't  told us the location yet, but Bang-nim says he rented the place of one of his family."

"And I heard it's huge." Hobi places his arms behind his head, relaxing.

"Also, safe." Namjoon gets up from his seat, pulling his hood up and stuffing his hands in his pockets. "Clear your schedule as soon as possible, or else it'll be hard when we come back."

Everyone nods, dispersing their ways whereas Taehyung joins Jimin at the restaurant he was taking him to. Well, a promise was a promise.

"I rented the whole place for an hour." Taehyung's eyes go wide hearing Jimin who was busy watching the buzzing roads out his window. "You did what?" Taehyung asks thinking if he heard him wrong.

Two nights later, Skye finds herself scrolling through her phone. None of you knows what had happened. Her being too embarrassed to say it. Plus, almost everyone left, including you. Reason? The sudden change of schedules from university.

Her being the only one slacking in her room. She's wearing a regular floral thin-sleeved dress. Too bad it's become her nightdress after she wore it once in an outing and didn't take it off after coming home. Officially becoming her bed dress.

Her hair was all scrambled. A packet of chocolate lying next to it as she munches on it watching reels. Suddenly a notification pops up—a video call from Taehyung. Her heart skips a beat as she immediately looks at herself in the mirror.

Daps a little lip balm on her lips and picks up hesitantly. Taehyung's face appears on her screen, his hair slightly tousled, and a warm smile lightening up his features. "Hey," he's got his phone rested down on something as his fingers dap on the something upwards.

"Hey," she replies, trying to keep her tone neutral, but she can't help the slight tremble in her voice.

"You look different today," he comments, his eyes scanning her face. His fingers dipped in paint. He was painting something and called you in the middle of it. "Is it lightning or did you change something?" He adds.

She tucks her hair strands behind her ear, and feels self-conscious all of a sudden. "Uh, no. Just normal..." Taehyung chuckled softly, "I watched your recent vlog by the way." He picks up a cloth nearby and wipes his fingers.

Her eyes widen in surprise, "You... you did?"

He nods, his smile growing, "Yeah I did." He picks his phone up, and gets up to walk around, "That yellow dress you wore in it—you looked really pretty."

She feels her cheeks heat up. Can't understand why he finds her pretty at all. so many girls are prettier than her. "Why me?" She blurts out, couldn't hold it in anymore, "I mean, I'm just a fan... and you're, well, you."

Taehyung's expression softens as he sits somewhere. Lights a little darker shade here. He picks up a drink and a glass, and takes a look at her, "I don't really know why either. But there's something about you that caught my attention. In a good way."

Her heart races, and she feels the familiar wall of hesitation and intimidation rising up back. "I... I don't know what to say." She fiddles with her necklace again.

"You don't have to say anything," he reassures her gently, "I just want to get to know you better. You're more than just a fan to me."

She bites her lips and Taehyung takes a sip of his drink.

"But it's hard to come to terms with it, you know? You're so famous and I'm just..."

"You're just you," he finishes for her, "And that's enough."

She sighs, skin heating up. Her eyes low. "It's just intimidating."

Taehyung leans in closer to the camera, his gaze intent. "I get that. But I want you to know that you don't have to feel that way with me. I'm just Taehyung. And I like talking to you."

Skye meets his eyes through the screen, feeling a mix of fear and excitement. "Okay," she whispers, shifts in her bed and rests her phone on the other side to take a comfortable position.

"Okay," he echoes, a small smile playing on his lips. "So, tell me something you haven't shared in your vlogs."

She hesitates for a moment, and goes in thinking, "I ... I really like crocheting."

"Crochet huh?" His eyes light up genuinely, "I'd like to see some of your works someday." He says sincerely, "Maybe you can show me on our next call?"

Skye's heart flutters at the thought, "Yeah, maybe."

Taehyung's smile broadens, "it's a date then." And Skye can't help but softly laugh, "Alright, it's a date then."

"Good," he says, his tone warm, "And Skye?"

"Yeah?" She blinks at him.

"You look really beautiful tonight," he repeats, softly, "I'm glad you answered my call." Her cheeks flush again. But this time she faces it. Don't look away. "Thanks, g-good night."

"Good night, Skye." He replies, his smile lingering even after the call ends. Skye places her phone down, her heart still racing. Maybe, just maybe, breaking the line between fan and idol wasn't as impossible as she thought.

As for Taehyung, he shuts his phone, drops his phone down and buries his head in the pillow. Groans and sighs. Flushed red and crimsons.

This woman took his breath away for real. And he cannot just wait for another call with her. Fights his inner urge to give all of himself away and leave everything to go meet her but he knows it won't do any good.

So, for now, he decided to go and freaking sleep. Unaware of what tomorrow brought for him and how it would change a lot of things for him.
