Breaking news!
only a few days before Marmalade comeback, the group was reported to be at the local hospital for injuries on one of their producers!

"Please could we have minute of your time!" 

"Marmalade, please look this way!"

"Min Yoongi, what is your response to your attack earlier today!"

Paparazzis and interviewers yelled at the entrance of the hospital, the seven boys absolutely unable to go out of the building without being drowned in middle aged workers trying to get anything for their new headlines.

Jimin sighed, running a frustrated hand through his hair as his eyes fell upon the dozen people that crowed the large glass doors of the building.

"Aigoo, we really have no space to breath huh?" Yoongi asked as he ruffled the hair at the back of his head, right above his undercut.

"Don't worry hyung, I think Namjoon-hyung already called the crew over." Said Taehyung with a smile, Jungkook pointing towards the parking lot not far away, where two large black vans.

The reporters were pushed out of the way by Marmalade's personal managers and bodyguards, the crew finally being able to get past the see of people.

"Come on." Said Jimin with a soft smile as he took Yoongi's hand in his and pulled him towards the door, his buff bodyguards creating a very narrow path in the crowd, not managing to prevent the occasional shove.

They were pushed around, and Yoongi got hit in the face accidently, a reporter swinging a recorder a little too close to his cheek, making him wince at his still sore bruises.

Finally, they made it to one of the glossy cars, the three members of Marmalade, Yoongi, Namjoon, Hoseok and Seokjin all entered one as the staff got into the other.

Namjoon, being the only member of the official Marmalade staff, took the steering wheel, Seokjin at his side.

Taehyung, Jungkook and Hoseok sat in the middle seats, youngest in the middle, and the couple sat in the very back seats.

"Alright everyone, time to get home." Said Namjoon as he started the engine.

"Is our schedule clear for the rest of the day?" Asked jungkook, an exited shimer in his eyes.

"Well, it wasn't. I had to cancel a few dance practices and the shooting of the choreography version for the MV, but your manager-nim got it covered, so yeah y'all can rest for the rest of today BUT, tomorrow is the release of the teaser, than after that is the release of the trailer, and then a few days after that is the actual MV release, so not so relaxing." Said Namjoon with a small smile as he drove out of the parking lot.

"Thanks manager-nim." Said Taehyung with the most charming boxy smile.

"Hoseok-hyung, want to come over and play overwatch!" Asked Jungkook.

But contrary to expectations, Hoseok didn't fall for the radiant smile Jungkook and Taehyung were flashing his way.

"Sorry guys, but i'm going to the police to report that dude." Said Hoseok, eyes staring straight at the road.

Seokjin turned around, looking at the serious man. They had crossed each other's paths without really getting to know each other, both being Yoongi's friend was there only conexion, but Seokjin had to admit he liked the younger's usually energetic persona.

"That won't be necessary Hobi." Yoongi's scratchy voice said from the back.

"That was absolutely not a question, i'll report that violent homophobic crack weather you like it or not." Shot back Hoseok, not looking back to glance at Yoongi, just seeing his bruises made him want to just stab a bitch.

"Don't, it'll just make Marmalade look bad and-" Yoongi's steady voice was quickly cut by Hoseok's frustrated ramble.

"How the hell is standing up for basic human rights going to make Marmalade look bad. Yoongi, for fucks sake you just got physically attacked by a dude you had never seen for your sexual orientation!" Hoseok argued, his voice gradually getting louder and more irritated each second.

Yoongi sighed, sitting up in his seat slightly and trying to reach closer to Hoseok.

"Yes, but Marmalade would be supporting LGBT+ rights and that's already a pretty big statement."

"Well it shouldn't be!" Taehyung suddenly yelled, surpsing everyone.

"That's not the question here." Yoongi said, not raising his voice. "You heard Yeonsul, she sai-"

"I was there when she uttered that pure rubbish! And i do understand where she is coming from, but i don't understand why the hell we write songs about self confidence and self love if we can't even stand up for what we believe is right. I'd much rather be hated for something i am than being loved for something i'm not!"
