Taehyung sat in front of his manager, Namjoon, feeling sorry for the trouble he had caused for the past few days.
They were inside the company's conference room, discussing matters that involve him and the business magnate Jeon Jungkook.
Jin and Jimin were also with him, letting him feel that he has their support no matter what.
"The media won't stop talking about the issue just yet. They are capitalizing in this whole drama, getting more viewers and readers for their articles. I'm afraid we just have to deal with this a bit longer than we thought." Namjoon sighed, slowly reaching Taehyung's hand on top of the table, wanting him to feel at ease.
"Don't worry Tae. As long as we keep our silence, this will eventually die down." Jin added, caressing his shoulders.
Taehyung nodded his head as he sighed. "I'm really sorry."
Namjoon shakes his head. "Don't be. We should even be happy because people are giving us more and more attention. Hoseok even said what happened actually helped in promoting his agency even more. So don't be sorry, Taehyung." He smiled, his dimples showing.
The brunet forced a smile. He knows Namjoon just wants him to feel better by saying all these. However, he couldn't feel happy, not after the confrontation he had with Jungkook.
"Hyung.. Can't we ask Mr. Hoseok to stop the media from making a huge deal out of it? I-I don't want to drag Mr. Jeon's name in this any longer." Taehyung pleaded.
Jimin snickered at this. "He should be thankful his name is being mentioned next to yours. God, Tae! A lot of people want to be in his shoes. Trust me."
Taehyung shakes his head, eyes focusing on his manager, waiting for his response.
Namjoon sighed, "I'm afraid not. Hoseok doesn't have that much control over the media."
The brunet bit his lower lip in desperation. "I'm feeling bad for causing him trouble." He said in a soft voice.
Namjoon scratched the back of his head, remembering what he has heard this morning. "Well, about that... What's exactly your relationship with him?"
The brunet lowered his head, a little taken aback by his manager's question.
Namjoon felt his hesitation to answer, abruptly taking back his words. "You don't have to answer if you don't want to. It's just that, this morning, when I went to Hoseok's office, I heard a few employees talking about Jungkook's fiancée causing a scene there."
Taehyung shoots his head up in the mention of the word. "Fiancée?" He asked in shock.
Namjoon nodded his head. "Yeah, that's what I heard."
The brunet felt his hand turn cold, finally realizing why Jungkook wants his name out of the issue as soon as possible.
"I-I don't know that." Taehyung mumbles under his breath.
Jimin saw the sadness in his eyes, making his anger towards Jungkook rise even more. "I'm going to ask my boyfriend to do something about that fucking issue. I don't want your name getting tagged along with that jerk as well and whoever his bitch of a fiancée is."
Taehyung smiled at this, seeing Jimin's angry yet adorable face. He's thankful to have him as his best friend, however, he doesn't want to trouble the couple just because of him.
"Thanks Chim, but I don't want to cause trouble to Yoongi." He said, making Jimin roll his eyes.
"No. He'll do it if he wants his cock up my ass!" Jimin bluntly muttered, making Taehyung gasp at his outburst.
"Oh God, Chim." Taehyung giggled as he shakes his head. He starts feeling a bit at ease from his best friend's silly antics.
Jin rolled his eyes at the younger. "Fucking TMI, Jimin. We don't need to know that."
Jimin grinned playfully. "Oh come on. Don't pretend as if Namjoon isn't doing the same to you."
"Yah!" Jin blushed, standing and running after the younger who dashed out of the conference room in the speed of light. His giggles echoed in the hallway, with Jin's nagging that made Taehyung laugh his heart out.
Namjoon on the other hand just sat on his seat, too embarrassed by what Jimin had said.
--------
It's been a week since Yoongi was able to control the media using his influence and money.
The issue finally died down, not a single article came out regarding him and Jungkook. He hadn't used social media after that, staying away from all the negativity it brings to him.
Taehyung finally felt relieved as he went out of his car, walking inside the agency where Jimin and Jin are waiting for him.
There's another photo shoot lined up for the three of them, and Taehyung is just so happy to get back on track.
He hasn't heard of Jungkook after the confrontation they had, and he doesn't know whether to be relieved or not.
At the back of his mind, he's wanting to see Jungkook once more. Whether he's mad at him and just full of hatred, still, Taehyung wants to see him.
He misses him. For the past five years he had longed so bad for him.
However, Jungkook isn't feeling the same way.
Taehyung sighed, finally stepping inside the building. He passed by a lot of people, new models of their company. He greeted them, only to realize that they're staring at him as they whisper something incomprehensible.
The brunet finds it odd. However, he just brushed it off and continued walking to Jin's dressing room.
He pushed the door open, his bright smile plastered on his lips, only to see Jin and Jimin flinching at the sight of him, keeping away their phones behind them.
"O-oh Tae." Jin said in a nervous tone.
Taehyung furrows his eyebrows at this. "What's wrong?" He asked, advancing towards the two. He tried peeking over their shoulders, wanting to find out what they're hiding.
"What's that?" He asked, gripping Jin's arm and taking away his phone.
"No, Tae! You don't need to see it." Jimin protested and tried taking away the phone in his hand, however, he's fast enough to move away and stare at the article flashed on the screen.
Taehyung suddenly felt his hand turn cold as he scrolled down, his eyes wide in shock.
An anonymous account posted and shared pictures of him and Jungkook on the page.
Pictures of the time when they're still together. He reads the article with trembling hands.
Kim Taehyung and Jeon Jungkook: Lovers?
After the famous model Kim Taehyung causes a scene with business magnate Jeon Jungkook during the 4th anniversary of Jung Modeling Agency, everyone got a little interested with the real score between them.
Rumors start to spread that the two are having a relationship despite of the fact that Mr. Jeon already has a fiancée.
This claim once again arises when an anonymous account shared pictures of the two, proving that they had a relationship during their college days.
This anonymous person also added that up until now, Kim Taehyung and Jeon Jungkook discreetly see each other in private.
These are the pictures shared by the account.
Taehyung fell on the couch, his knees losing energy at the sight. He covered his mouth in shock as he trembles, seeing their pictures. He felt out of breath when Jimin sat next to him, caressing his back.
"I told you not to look at it." Jimin mumbles, his voice apologetic and soft.
The brunet scrolled down even more, seeing thousands of comments underneath.
Gorg_Tae: OMG. That's them!
Nothing-to-do08: Gosh! So the rumors are true?
Taekook12: I ship! I even changed my username with their ship name 💜
JustANobody: What?! So they're cheating on the fiancée? G R O S S.
adDICKTAEd: Leave them alone, idiots. Mind your own fucking business.
BItchos: That's edited.
Huntaert: OH GOD! I LOVE THIS ARTICLE!!!
Taehyung could no longer read on. He's starting to have cold feet, thinking of how those pictures were able to spread.
Who would do such a thing?
The brunet felt Jimin and Jin hug him tight.
"Don't worry, baby. I'll ask Yoongi to do something about this again." Jimin said, determined to help him out.
Even before Jimin could stand and phone his lover, Taehyung suddenly flinched when his phone rang.
He shakily took his phone, seeing an unregistered number. He mindlessly answered the call even before Jin could stop him.
"Hello?" Taehyung said as he waits for the response.
Taehyung's breath almost got knocked off his chest when he heard his voice.
His voice that he knows so well.
"Meet me."

Love you. 💜
