Stigma Love's Algorithm [ A BTS x Reader Poly ]

Chapter 19: An Exciting New Bond

Yoongi and I both laughed at Taehyung's daily updates. He was so open, so carefree with everything he shared.

His messages were always full of energy, and it felt like I was getting a glimpse into his life.

We were all sharing little bits of our days, and it brought a fresh, lighthearted feeling to our routine.

Suga (Group Chat)
I'm doing alright. Just the usual grind. Got a ton of work, but nothing new.

Y/N (Group Chat)
Same here. Just wrapped up some deadlines. It's been a long day.😩

Taehyung (Group Chat)
I feel you! Work can be such a drain sometimes.

Taehyung (Group Chat)
But hey! The weekend is almost here!! I'm so ready to meet you both!! 😆✨

His messages kept the conversation flowing effortlessly, and it became a new part of our routine-checking our phones for Taehyung's texts, teasing him back with little jokes, and hearing his reactions to our days.

One afternoon, I was sitting on my couch, scrolling through my phone when I saw Taehyung's name pop up again.

My heart skipped a beat.

Taehyung (Group Chat)
I was thinking... what if we all went to get some bubble tea before the amusement park?

Taehyung (Group Chat)
I know a place nearby that has the best milk tea! 🧋🍓

Taehyung (Group Chat)
Just thinking about it makes me want some right now... lol.

I grinned at the thought. "I'm in. That sounds like the perfect pre-ride fuel."

Yoongi, who was sitting next to me, leaned over and read the message.

"Bubble tea?" Yoongi chuckled, his lips curling into a soft smile. "Is he trying to win us over with sweet drinks?"

I shrugged playfully. "Seems like it. And it's working." I nudged him, causing him to laugh.

As the week went on, our lives started blending with Taehyung's more and more.

The daily exchanges made everything feel easier, lighter.

Taehyung's excitement was contagious, and it made the mundane parts of life feel like a small adventure.

We'd chat about random things-what we were eating, how work was going, or something silly we'd seen on the internet.

Each message was like a new thread in the tapestry of our bond with him.

There were moments in the middle of the workday when Taehyung would message either of us to ask how things were going.

His texts always brought a smile to our faces.

Taehyung (Private to Y/N)
Hey! How's your day going? I swear my brain is all over the place today 😂

Y/N (Private to Taehyung)
Same here! But it's almost over, so there's that. How about you?

Taehyung (Private to Y/N)
Ugh, don't remind me! 😩 Just one of those days.

Taehyung (Private to Y/N)
But hey, I got some cute new socks today! 😂

Y/N (Private to Taehyung)
Cute socks? I need to see them!

Taehyung (Private to Y/N)
Definitely! I'll send a pic soon.

Taehyung (Private to Y/N)
I swear, they have little penguins on them, and I'm obsessed 😍

Meanwhile, at the office, Yoongi and I would trade playful messages with Taehyung while also staying focused on work.
