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

Chapter 24: Finding Light in the Pressure

Everyone nodded, and as the team filed out of the room, I stayed behind for a moment, catching Yoongi's eye.

He gave me a small, reassuring smile, and I couldn't help but feel a sense of calm settle over me.

His support meant everything, and in that moment, I knew we'd get through this together.

Just as I was about to get back to work, my phone buzzed again, this time with a message from Taehyung.

Taehyung (Group Chat)
Hey Yoongi Hyung, I've been talking about you and Noona a lot to my friends.

Taehyung (Group Chat)
They think you guys are the coolest. 😎✨

I smiled at the message, knowing Yoongi would probably play it cool but secretly be flattered.

Yoongi (Group Chat)
They probably think that because I don't run around talking about giraffes like you.

Taehyung (Group Chat)
Hey, giraffes are awesome! 😏🦒 But fine, I'll let you have your "cool" status, Hyung.

It was amazing to see Taehyung's bond with Yoongi grow stronger every day.

There was this sense of comfort between them now-a playfulness that went deeper than just teasing.

They had a connection, and it was becoming more obvious to me with each message.

I felt my phone buzz again-this time, it was from Yoongi.

Yoongi (Group Chat)
Speaking of "cool," we need to finalize the details for the weekend.

Yoongi (Group Chat)
I'm picking Y/N up at her apartment around 7am, I was thinking we could pick you up too, Tae, at your place, right after.

Yoongi (Group Chat)
Around 7:30am, should be good

Taehyung (Group Chat)
You're picking me up at my apartment!?!?🥹🥹🥹

Taehyung (Group Chat)
You are the best, hyung!! 🤗🥹

Taehyung (Group Chat)
I'll send you my address in a bit!! 🫡

Y/N (Group Chat)
Tae be ready, now that you're also in yoongi's "I care for you" list

Y/N (Group Chat)
He will never let you go on your own again, unless you want to 🤭

Taehyung (Group Chat)
THE SPECIAL YOONGI TREATMENT 👑

Taehyung (Group Chat)
OMG FINALLY 😭🥰☺️

Yoongi (Group Chat)
I just don't want to deal with an "I'm late" moment from either of you.

Y/N (Group Chat)
LOL he says that but he's patient enough to wait either way ❤️

Taehyung (Group Chat)
Hyung you are such grumpy angel 😇😭

Taehyung (Group Chat)
Although... noona, hyung...

Taehyung (Group Chat)
I know you guys have been drowned at work these past few days...

Taehyung (Group Chat)
and the safari is a 2 hour drive from Seoul.

Taehyung (Group Chat)
I can drive too, hyung 😁

Yoongi (Group Chat)
It's okay Tae.
